Dawn

Chapter 74 Dawn

"And these bounties from the Black Vatican..." Ling Tianyu looked at Leng Qing with some anticipation.

"Don't worry, you won't be shortchanged!" Leng Qing smiled radiantly.

…………

After another thrilling aerial journey, Ling Tianyu and Leng Qing returned to the safe zone.

Leng Qing had important business to attend to, so she said goodbye to Ling Tianyu and left in a hurry.

It's already late at night...

…………

At dawn, the distant mist shrouded the Nanling Mountains, and the faint glow of dawn pierced the sky, just like the mood of the people of Bocheng after the rain.

The clean, refreshing sunlight shone on the distant river, mountains, and forests...

The peaceful and tranquil scene at this moment makes it impossible to imagine that just yesterday this place experienced an unprecedented disaster that shook the very foundation of Bocheng!

"How are you feeling?"

"Uh...not bad..."

"That's it, there's not a single drop left!"

Ling Tianyu lay pale-faced on the bed, feeling the empty plant-type nebula in his spiritual sea, and said weakly.

In contrast, Mu Ningxue stood to the side, her face glowing with health.

Of course, both of them were doing legitimate things.

"Is it over?" Mu Ningxue was still savoring the feeling. The sensation of being bathed in a gentle breeze, as if a warm current was flowing through her meridians, was truly captivating to her!

After more than a year of being frozen and eroded, every nurturing process of Ling Tianyu is now an unparalleled and ultimate enjoyment for her!

"I'm completely out of mana!"

"Oh? Then let's leave it at that."

"Use the [Ice Crystal Bow] less often in the future, that thing is really weird!" Ling Tianyu said, straightening his slightly wrinkled coat, the stench of the Black Vatican still stubbornly lingering on it.

Hurry home, take a shower, and change into clean clothes.

"I know!" Mu Ningxue stuck out her tongue and smiled mischievously. This situation was unimaginable in the original plot, but under Ling Tianyu's "nurturing", Mu Ningxue had also become more humane.

"Um... I should be going back to the Imperial Capital Academy tomorrow..." Mu Ningxue hesitated slightly before saying it.

"So fast!" Ling Tianyu exclaimed in surprise. "You've only been back for a week, haven't you?"

"Yes, the academic workload at the Imperial Capital Academy is heavy, and the competition is fierce. There's also a training exercise coming up soon..." Mu Ningxue said, rubbing her temples in frustration.

"Then take care of yourself, don't overwork yourself!" Ling Tianyu's eyes darted around, and he grinned mischievously.

"Shouldn't you make it up to me...?"

"What…" Mu Ningxue asked in confusion, then felt a warm touch on her lips.

"Ugh~" Mu Ningxue was startled. Her fair arm instinctively tried to push Ling Tianyu away, but she hesitated.

Taking advantage of this moment, Ling Tianyu went further and embraced the delicate body in front of him...

…………

"Hoo hoo~ You bad guy!" Mu Ningxue was embarrassed and annoyed, but in reality she didn't resist too much; she was just being a little reserved.

Otherwise, she could have easily frozen Ling Tianyu with ice vines, but she still couldn't bear to do it, could she?

"If I don't do it this way, when will you, this iceberg, allow me to take it a step further?" Ling Tianyu stretched leisurely and looked at Mu Ningxue with a faint smile.

Mu Ningxue's cheeks were rosy, her long, snow-white hair was slightly messy and loose, and her beautiful eyes glared at Ling Tianyu with a look that seemed both angry and reproachful. Her clothes were also a little disheveled, revealing her fair and tender collarbone.

"It's all your fault! I need to take a shower now!"

…………

"Satisfied!" Ling Tianyu licked his lips, nodded in satisfaction, and stepped out of the room, just in time to bump into Ye Xinxia.

"Good morning, Brother Tianyu..." Ye Xinxia smiled and looked up, but suddenly saw something and froze on the spot.

"Good morning!" Ling Tianyu nodded, habitually gripping the back handles of the wheelchair with both hands, and pushed her along.

"Brother Tianyu, what did you and Sister Ningxue do yesterday?" Ye Xinxia asked abruptly, her tone concealing a hint of barely perceptible resentment.

"Uh, it's nothing, just helping her to nourish her body?" Ling Tianyu explained somewhat awkwardly.

"Nourish your body? Oh, I see." Ye Xinxia's gentle voice sent a chill down Ling Tianyu's spine.

Looks like my little jealousy has been spilled!

Ling Tianyu pretended to be angry and rubbed Ye Xinxia's smooth, hard-boiled egg-like face, then kissed her in retaliation.

Ye Xinxia's barely suppressed anger vanished instantly, and she obediently collapsed into Ling Tianyu's arms.

Xin Xia is the easiest to coax. Her gentle nature makes her easily submissive. Even when she saw Mo Fan flirting with other women in the original novel, she didn't react much. At most, she would complain for a moment and then let it go.

The main reason is the feudalistic thinking that Mo Fan instilled in Xin Xia from a young age, which makes Xin Xia almost unable to get angry when facing Mo Fan.

"Xinxia, ​​don't worry, even if you were willing, I'm not ready for that myself yet!"

…………

"Has reinforcement arrived?"

Some early risers suddenly discovered a large flock of white eagles appearing in the direction of the sunlight and exclaimed in surprise!

The difficulty of completely clearing out the vast city of Bo is unimaginable. Although the demons have been largely wiped out by forces such as the Hunter Alliance and the Magic Association, the density of demons is particularly high in many hidden places, and they dare not attack rashly, as the losses could be extremely heavy.

At this point, reinforcements are needed to launch a carpet bombing of magic, eliminating every single demon that managed to survive!

Only after this operation can Bocheng be said to be truly safe, and the ordinary people remaining within the safety barrier can return to their homes.

…………

The Skyhawk Mage Corps swiftly flew over Bo City and landed on the same lookout tower they had previously visited.

One after another, majestic and spirited eagles soared down, and military mages exuding powerful mid-level auras descended upon them. Bo City had finally been defended.

With reinforcements and the leadership of the city's higher-ups, most of the mages began to form small teams to hunt down all the demons in the entire city of Bo, centered around the safety barrier!

This sweep lasted for three days, and the sewers were thoroughly cleaned several times. Even if any fish escaped, they were probably terrified and would no longer dare to appear on human territory.

However, despite Ling Tianyu's reminder, Principal Zhu, Zhan Kong and others' all-out efforts, and Leng Qing's support, many places in Bo City were still completely unrecognizable, a desolate scene of ruins, clearly uninhabitable.

It is estimated that from this day forward, many people in Bocheng will be afraid of heavy rain.

Bo City will soon be taken over by the military, and everyone needs to prepare for relocation.
