At this moment, Dixia came over quickly after greeting the members of her own mercenary group.

"I'm here. I wonder if I missed anything important?"

After hearing the voice, Paimon immediately turned his attention to Dishia and explained to her.

"Don't worry, Dixia, you came at the right time and didn't miss any important information. But, I am very concerned about everyone's current situation."

Dixia gently touched his right arm, and then answered seriously: "When they saw that I was safe and sound, the morale of the whole team was indeed improved."

"It's just that after all this trouble, everyone feels a little tired. We want to return to the desert to rest and properly bury those companions who unfortunately died..."

When Nashida heard that everyone was planning to go to the desert, she frowned and began to think.

After a moment, she nodded, agreeing with the idea.

"Well, that's fine. In that case, let's go to Aru Village first."

"After all, the Order of the Imam will surely launch a large-scale manhunt for us in the rainforest area, so we urgently need to find a safe and reliable place to replan our next action plan."

Shao Yun suddenly interrupted and asked, "So, should we set off right away, or..."

Without waiting for Nashida's response, Dixia spoke first: "Can we wait a little longer in Zen Garden? Some members of my mercenary group have not arrived yet. If we leave first..."

When he heard that he would have to stay in the Zen Garden for a while, Shao Yun was worried that a group of gilded brigades hired by the Fatui and the Ordinance would appear and attack as per the original plot.

But considering Dishia... he volunteered, "Okay, I'll go outside to patrol and keep watch. If any Fatui or someone from the Order of the Faith comes, we can have an early warning..."

……

Because Shao Yun sliced ​​the doctor to death, the Ministry of Education was currently in chaos, so the expected attack from members of the Gilded Brigade did not occur.

Nashida modified the meditation device that imprisoned her in advance, so that the Order and the Fatui could not do anything to Nashida. Therefore, Nashida could still use Catherine's body to act together with Shao Yun and other companions.

After a day of rest and waiting, until the rest of Dishiya's people arrived, everyone set off for Kawan Posthouse.

Because the team was carrying wounded and dead bodies, the entire journey took three days to reach Kawan Station.

During the three-day journey, in order to guard against possible attacks, Shao Yun remained vigilant for three consecutive days without closing his eyes to rest.

……

In the afternoon, the woods outside Kawanyi seemed particularly quiet, and the sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves of the forest, casting mottled light and shadows.

Everyone hid in the woods, waiting for Dishia to return from scoping out the situation at Kawan Station.

Finally, Dixia appeared in everyone's sight.

However, as she gradually approached, everyone noticed that her expression was unusually solemn.

Shao Yun, who was leaning against the tree, noticed this and subconsciously asked, "Is it bad news?"

Di Xia nodded heavily, agreeing with Shao Yun's guess.

Then, Dixia took a deep breath and began to explain the current situation in detail to Shao Yun, Ying, Paimon and Nashida.

"It's really bad news. The entire Kawanyi has been completely blocked now."

"I originally planned to ask my friends there for help, but I didn't expect that Kawan Station had been taken over by the Fatui. They claimed that the Order Council issued an order prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving the desert area."

"So, if we want to go to Aru Village, we only have two options: either break through the blockade or find those 'small paths' hidden between the sand walls to bypass them."

"It's just that... although they are called 'roads', in fact many of them cannot be called 'roads' at all!"

Having said that, Dixia shook her head helplessly, and her eyes unconsciously glanced at the mercenaries hiding in the woods.

There were many injured people and even dead bodies among them. Judging from the state of the team, it was unlikely that they would be able to pass through the so-called "paths" smoothly.

Just when Dixia and the others were at a loss, Nashida finished communicating with someone through the void terminal and said, "I just contacted Elhaisen through the void! He is in Kawanyi now, maybe he has a good solution to the problem."

Hearing the name Elhaisen, Shao Yun couldn't help but raise his lips slightly, and said jokingly: "Haha, it seems that your hidden back-up plan has finally come in handy."

Nashida nodded silently, and then continued in a calm tone: "Alhaisen is currently staying at the inn called 'Golden Sand Journey' in Kawan Inn, and his specific location is room 4. I hope he can come up with a way to deal with the current Fatui."

……

Originally, Shao Yun planned to look for Elhaisen alone. After all, this would minimize the risk of being discovered by others.

But who knew that Ying and Paimeng insisted on going together.

No matter how Shao Yun tried to persuade them, the two of them remained unmoved, giving people the feeling that they would kill Elhaisen if they were not watching them.

With no other choice, Shao Yun had to agree.

……

In this way, Shao Yun brought Ying and Paimeng to Kawanyi.

Because the Fatui blocked the passages in and out of the desert, the entire Kawan Post was deserted and there were few people to be seen.

However, the three of them finally arrived at their destination, the Golden Sands Inn, quietly. According to the information provided by Nashida, they successfully found the room where Elhaisen was.

Standing in front of the door, Shao Yun first tentatively reached out and pushed the door, only to find that it was not locked.

So he politely raised his hand and knocked on the door twice. Seeing no response from inside the room, he pushed the door open and walked in.

Anyway, I have already knocked on the door...

Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng walked into the room and quickly looked around.

The room was decorated in a very ordinary way, no different from an ordinary hotel.

However, the most noticeable thing is that there is a chair placed by the window. In fact, there is nothing unusual about the chair. There is just a man sitting on it, reading a book quietly.

This person's hair is a unique gradient of silver, white and gray. His light green eyes match his hair, giving off a calm and rational aura.

Shao Yun looked at this person. If his judgment was correct, and the information given by Nashida was correct, then the person in front of him should be Elhaisen.

He raised his chin slightly, with a teasing smile on his face, and said jokingly: "You are El Haisen, right? You look quite relaxed and at ease!"

Hearing the voice, Elhaisen's expressionless face slowly raised up and looked up and down at Shao Yun.

After a moment, he responded slowly: "Yes, just to kill time. After all, I'm not sure when you can come."

After saying that, Elhaisen closed the book in his hand and continued as if talking to himself: "I have to say, the commotion you caused in Xumi City was really quite big. It can be described as 'bloody storm'."

"If I hadn't contacted Lord Little Auspicious Grass King in advance, I'm afraid I would have mistakenly believed that you were the ones who killed the residents of Xumi City."

When I heard Elhaisen talking about Xumi City, I found it completely different from what I had experienced.

Paimon couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked in confusion, "Huh? What do you mean? Why does it feel different from what we experienced?"

She tilted her head, looking completely confused.

Elhaisen slowly stood up from the chair by the window and began to explain in detail.

"You may not know that there is news from the void that Xumi City was attacked by a group of extremely vicious Gilded Brigade! These guys actually detonated bombs in the city, creating a terrible chaotic scene."

"According to reliable intelligence, this was the Red King's official declaration of war against the Great Compassion Tree King. Fortunately, at the critical moment, our friends from the Kingdom of Winter lent a hand in time and helped Xumi City successfully resolve the crisis."

As soon as Elhaisen finished speaking, Paimon immediately puffed up his cheeks with anger, put his hands on his hips, and retorted: "What! It was obviously that abominable doctor who manipulated the transformed Fatui to self-destruct and caused the chaos. How can you put the blame on us?"

The more she spoke, the angrier she became, and her little face turned red.

However, facing the angry Paimon, Elhaisen just glanced at her indifferently, his face still maintaining that cold look.

He continued his analysis in a clear and logical manner: "Well, if we want to be more precise, the target is actually people in the desert areas."

"As for you... the Great Sage probably doesn't even take you seriously. In his eyes, you don't even have the qualifications to be his opponent."

After saying this, Elhaisen shrugged lightly, feeling that all this was a very normal thing.

When Shao Yun heard the clown who called himself "Azar" being so arrogant, he couldn't help but lick his lips and muttered in a low voice,

"He's going to pay the price for his arrogance."

Elhaisen, who was standing nearby, heard all of this. After thinking calmly for a moment, he said, "But at the moment, the situation is not favorable to us. We are at a disadvantage."

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun immediately argued excitedly: "No, we still have a carefully planned plan! It's just that right now, we really need to rest for a while and recover our strength and energy."

Elhaisen nodded calmly, his expression seemed to say "You are right, but there is no need to say these words again."

Then he continued, "I know you are going to Aru Village to rest now, but look at the situation outside the window."

As he spoke, Elhaisen walked gently to the window and carefully pushed it open a little. Although the gap was small, it was enough for people to see the situation outside.
