“Grandpa Tan, are you okay? Boohoo, Grandpa Tan, Hong'er is scared. Please don't leave Hong'er!” 0
 
In a hidden thicket, a little girl in red sat on the ground, tightly holding an elderly man in her arms, tears streaming down her face and dripping onto his forehead. 0
 
Beside them, Aotian quietly watched the little girl, a strange light flickering in his eyes. 0
 
“Big brother, is Grandpa Tan going to die? Hong'er doesn't want Grandpa Tan to die!” 0
 
The little girl with swollen red eyes asked Aotian. 0
 
“Don't worry, your Grandpa Tan is just temporarily unconscious. He will wake up soon!” 0
 
“Really? Big brother isn't lying to me?” 0
 
“Of course not. Why would big brother lie to you?” 0
 
Just then, a sharp sound of wind suddenly rang out. Instantly, Aotian's originally gentle gaze turned sharp. 0
 
“Whoosh” 0
 
A slender figure stood before Aotian, revealing a stunningly beautiful face. 0
 
Seeing the newcomer, the sharpness in Aotian's eyes gradually faded as he softly asked, “How is it? That Ironclad Tiger didn't hurt you, did it?” 0
 
 
Aoyan lightly shook his head and said, 0
 
"It's nothing, just that beast has incredible defense. I only managed to injure it, but I couldn't kill it." 0
 
Just as Aotian was about to speak, a faint voice suddenly rang out: 0
 
"Miss, are you... are you okay?" 0
 
"Ah?! Grandpa Tan, you're finally awake!" 0
 
Hearing the old man's voice, the girl in red finally broke into a smile. The helplessness and despair on her face gradually faded away. 0
 
"Miss, it's good that you're fine. If something happened to you, how would I explain it to the captain?" 0
 
"Grandpa Tan... I promise I won't sneak out again... Please go back and don't tell Father!" 0
 
The little girl said with a look of panic. 0
 
Aotian and Aoyan both chuckled lightly; this little girl was truly adorable. 0
 
"You are..." 0
 
At that moment, the old man finally noticed Aotian and Aoyan standing nearby. 0
 
 
"Ah! Grandpa Tan, it was this big brother and big sister who saved us when you fainted just now." 0
 
Loli said excitedly, seemingly forgetting her earlier fear of being found out by her father. 0
 
"Hehe, senior, I am Aotian, and this is... my girlfriend Aoyan." 0
 
Aotian pointed to himself and then to Aoyan as he spoke. 0
 
Upon hearing Aotian's introduction, Aoyan's face turned pink, and she rolled her eyes at him. However, she did not refute Aotian's words; instead, there was a hint of delight on her face. 0
 
"I am an old man and the young lady are both members of the Wolf Fang Adventure Team. My name is Tan Qianqiu, and the young lady is the captain's daughter, named Xiao Hong'er. I thank you both on behalf of the captain for saving us!" 0
 
"Hehe, may I ask how Senior Tan got involved with the Ironclad Tiger? That is quite a troublesome Mystic Beast!" 0
 
"Hmph, big brother, it's all that bad person's fault! He led that nasty tiger over here and caused Grandpa Tan to get hurt. I'm going to tell my father when I get back so he can deal with that bad person and avenge us!" 0
 
Xiao Hong'er interjected as soon as she heard Aotian's question. Her cheeks puffed up slightly, looking quite angry. However, with her loli face, it appeared extremely cute. 0
 
"Hehe, young hero, that person is from the Blood Cliff Adventure Team, and the Blood Cliff Adventure Team is our sworn enemy in conflict with the Wolf Fang Adventure Team, which explains what happened earlier." 0
 
"I see..." Aotian realized. 0
 
"Young hero, I have already taken the medicine left for me by the captain; my injuries are no longer a problem. I will take my leave now." 0
 
 
"Well, the Blood Cliff Adventure Team wasn't able to kill you this time, but they will definitely take measures. It's better to head back early!" 0
 
"Then we shall take our leave first!" 0
 
Saying this, Tan Qianqiu hugged Xiao Hong'er and headed out of the Wasteland. 0
 
"Big brother, come visit us at the Wolf Fang Adventure Team when you have time!" 0
 
"Hehe, sure! Hong'er, be careful on your way..." 0
 
"Got it, big brother..." 0
 
Watching Tan Qianqiu and Xiao Hong'er disappear from sight, Aotian chuckled softly, "What a lovely little girl..." 0
 
A few days later, in a patch of grass, Aotian stood facing Aoyan. 0
 
"Is that the Eternal Night Forbidden Zone up ahead?" 0
 
Just a few miles away, a massive black curtain loomed. The black curtain stretched endlessly to both sides, seemingly reaching the end of the world. 0
 
"That's right, that is the Eternal Night Forbidden Zone!" 0
 
 
At some point, Yan floated beside them, gazing at the enormous black curtain with a nostalgic look in his eyes. 0
 
"Senior, are you really going to let Aotian enter the Eternal Night Forbidden Zone?" Aoyan asked, still feeling uneasy. 0
 
"Little girl, I understand your concerns, but due to certain special reasons, the energy within the Eternal Night Forbidden Zone will not harm Aotian. Moreover, your background may only be revealed by entering the Eternal Night Forbidden Zone." 0
 
"My background..." 0
 
Upon hearing Yan's words, Aoyan murmured in confusion. 0
 
Meanwhile, Aotian asked, "Master, what exactly is in the Eternal Night Forbidden Zone? Why do those who enter seem to die without understanding why?" 0
 
Yan pondered for a moment before replying, "There is a divine artifact within the Eternal Night Forbidden Zone called the Heaven Devouring Seal. This Heavenly Seal was forged by an extraordinary being from ancient times and can absorb the surrounding energy. Therefore, the Mystical Energy within martial artists who enter the Eternal Night Forbidden Zone mysteriously vanishes. Furthermore, once one gets close to the Heaven Devouring Seal, even their life force can be drained away; it is extremely terrifying." 0
 
Both Aotian and Aoyan looked horrified, and Aoyan exclaimed, "Senior, if that's the case, why would you still let Aotian enter the Eternal Night Forbidden Zone?" 0
 
 
"Ha ha, little girl, don't worry. The cultivation method practiced by Aotian is quite marvelous, so the energy within Aotian will not be affected by the Heaven Devouring Seal." 0
 
Aoyan let out a light sigh of relief upon hearing this. 0
 
"Teacher, if Sister Yan enters the Eternal Night Forbidden Zone, will she..." 0
 
Yan smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, her Bloodline will protect her." 0
 
Aotian's face was filled with astonishment; it seemed he had not expected Aoyan's Bloodline to possess such a remarkable quality. 0
 
"Alright, you two go in. Be careful of the creatures inside." 0
 
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan transformed into a beam of light and shot into Aotian's body. 0
 
"Let's go..." 0
 
As Aotian and Aoyan stepped forward, the enormous black curtain suddenly rippled like waves on water. 0
 
The moment they crossed into the black curtain, Aotian felt the sky, which had still been bright moments ago, instantly turn pitch black as if night had fallen. 0
 
From a distance, the surrounding terrain was uneven, resembling a massive mountain range, but this mountain range was entirely black. Even the ground beneath Aotian's feet was a dark red, with occasional cold winds blowing through, creating a desolate atmosphere. 0
 
 
However, Aotian felt a warm and familiar energy drifting around him, which subtly enhanced his Transformation Technique. 0
 
It seemed that, just as the teacher had said, this Eternal Night Forbidden Zone would not cause him any harm... 0
 
Beside Aotian, Aoyan's face was pale, her delicate body trembling continuously as if she were enduring some immense pain. A trace of Mystical Energy was escaping from her every pore, floating in the pitch-black surroundings. 0
 
"Sister Yan, Sister Yan, what's wrong?!" 0
 
Aotian quickly noticed Aoyan's condition, and his expression changed drastically as he anxiously held her shoulders and asked. 0
 
"Aotian, there is a... a force here that is... continuously devouring the Mystical Energy within me." 0
 
Aoyan leaned against Aotian's embrace, speaking in a fragmented manner, her tone filled with weakness and exhaustion. 0
 
Upon hearing this, Aotian was startled and began to sense carefully, realizing that the energy within Aoyan was gradually flowing out. 0
 
It was unstoppable and unresistable! 0
