"laugh!"
As Li Ling's sword energy swept across, the bandits in front of him froze. Then their heads fell to the ground, and their headless corpses also collapsed to the ground. Nearly twenty bandits were wiped out in an instant.
Killing is commonplace in the desert, and Zhao Yu'er had witnessed it before, even killing herself. But seeing Li Ling wave his hand and so many bandits lose their heads in an instant, she was greatly surprised. However, she quickly exclaimed excitedly:
"Brother Yi, you're amazing! You killed so many bandits in an instant. When will I be able to master such skills?"
"That depends on how hard you try!" Li Ling glanced at the corpses around him and said with a hint of regret, "If I had known, I should have left one alive to clean up the bodies. With so many corpses, it'll be quite a hassle to clean them up!"
“If we just throw these corpses far away, wolves will soon carry them away!” Zhao Yu’er said.
"Well, that's the only way!"
Li Ling nodded and was about to step forward when he suddenly heard a series of unusual sounds. Looking towards the source of the sounds, he saw that a tornado had suddenly appeared and was about to arrive!
"Oh no, let's hide inside the house!"
With no deep wells nearby, Li Ling could only pull Zhao Yu'er to hide inside the house.
"Splash~"
A violent tornado struck, and in no time, the roof where Li Ling was located was ripped off, and then he and Zhao Yu'er were lifted up by the tornado.
"Ah!" Zhao Yu'er exclaimed repeatedly.
Li Ling finally witnessed the power of nature. Even his Thousand-Pound Drop technique had no effect. In the face of the power of nature, even a master of innate strength was no match for it.
Li Ling mustered his inner strength and erected a protective aura around his body to protect himself and Zhao Yu'er. He then released his mental energy to create another mental shield around the protective aura.
The two protective shields bulged up, but at this moment, they couldn't worry about where the tornado would blow them.
He didn't know how much time had passed, nor how far he had been swept away. After a while, Li Ling's true energy and mental power had been mostly exhausted before he felt the wind gradually subside.
Finally, the tornado dissipated, and Li Ling and Zhao Yu'er fell from mid-air.
"drink!"
Seeing that he was still seven or eight zhang away from the ground, Li Ling let out a soft shout, stomped his feet repeatedly, and released his energy. He also used his mental energy to impact the ground, gradually reducing the force of his fall.
The two of them landed slowly on the ground like feathers. Only then did Li Ling have time to look at Zhao Yu'er, who had already fainted.
After checking on Yu'er and finding that she was alright, Li Ling was slightly relieved and then looked around at the surrounding environment.
Soon, Li Ling discovered a river not far away, which immediately filled him with joy.
In the desert, water means animals survive, food is available, and there's a possibility of human habitation. If you were to land directly in the desert, disoriented and without water, that would be truly miserable! 百镀一下“All Heavens and Myriad Realms Wishing Star爪书屋”最新章节第一时间免费阅读。

"Yu'er, wake up!"
Li Ling placed his hand on Zhao Yu'er's back and slowly channeled his inner energy into her. After a while, Zhao Yu'er slowly woke up. In her dazed state, she looked at Li Ling and asked, "Brother Yi, where are we?"
"I don't know where we are either, but I think we're pretty lucky! At least we have a water source!" Li Ling laughed.
The moon was high in the sky, and bathed in its light, Zhao Yu'er looked in the direction Li Ling was pointing and saw the water source ahead. She immediately exclaimed with delight, "Ah, I know! I know where this is! This is Crescent Lake!"
"Crescent Moon Spring?" Li Ling pondered.
“Yes, although I’ve never seen Crescent Lake before, the legend of Crescent Lake has been passed down in the desert for a long time!” Zhao Yu’er said happily.
"It's like this," Zhao Yu'er said. "Legend has it that a long, long time ago, there was a couple in love. They loved each other but couldn't be together for some reason, so they came to Crescent Lake and committed suicide together." At this point, Zhao Yu'er's voice became somewhat low.
"On their deathbed, they made a wish at Crescent Lake, hoping that all lovers in the world could become a couple. From then on, as long as someone comes to Crescent Lake and sincerely makes a wish and prays, their beloved will be united forever, and at this time, the reflection of the couple will appear in the spring!"
"Hmm, that sounds pretty amazing!"
After listening quietly to Zhao Yu'er's story, Li Ling realized that love is one of the most cherished emotions among humankind, and there are many legends about love everywhere.
Li Ling had heard many love fairy tales in modern society, and as an "old man" who had experienced a lot, he didn't really believe in this legend. He only believed that happiness was something that had to be pursued through hard work. His attentive listening was just to match Zhao Yu'er's feelings.
At this moment, Zhao Yu'er stared intently at Li Ling, took his hand, and quickly walked to Crescent Lake, saying, "I want to try it too!"
As she spoke, Zhao Yu'er made a wish earnestly. After she made her wish, their reflections appeared in the spring water. Seeing this, Zhao Yu'er couldn't help but exclaim with delight, "Hehe, it seems that Brother Yi and I are destined to be together!"
"Yes, you're right, but let's find a place to rest first!" Li Ling flicked Zhao Yu'er's smooth forehead in annoyance. The two of them had already arrived at Crescent Lake, how could there not be a reflection?
"This tornado has blown us so far, let's rest first, and then check the situation tomorrow morning to discuss how to get back!"
After saying that, Li Ling pulled Zhao Yu'er away from there. They hadn't gone far when Li Ling found a cave. After checking it over, Li Ling found that the cave was relatively clean and there were no wild animals living there, so he said, "Let's rest here tonight!"
After saying that, Li Ling found a flat spot on the ground, took off his coat, and laid it on the ground.
After tidying up the place, Li Ling turned to Zhao Yu'er and said, "Yu'er, you can sleep here for a while... What's wrong with you? Why are you spacing out?"
Zhao Yu'er stammered for a long time, unable to finish her sentence: "...Um, I think this isn't quite right...after all, we're not married yet...oh dear!"
Li Ling withdrew his hand from Zhao Yu'er's forehead and chuckled, "Why do you think so much, little girl? You'll be sleeping here later, and I'll keep watch at the cave entrance. After all, we don't know if wild wolves will appear or anything. Aren't you afraid of being carried off in the middle of the night?"
As he spoke, Li Ling took out a bottle of pills from his pocket and handed it to Zhao Yu'er: "Also, it's cold at night, take this to keep warm."
Li Ling took out the Peiyuan Pill, a kind of pill passed down by the Mingjian Manor. As a powerful force with a history of hundreds of years, the Mingjian Manor has left behind all kinds of treasures and books, and the Peiyuan Pill is one of them.
This elixir is made from many precious medicinal herbs. It can not only help martial artists cultivate their internal strength, but also, because it contains a large amount of energy, ordinary people who take it will also have the effects of strengthening their bodies and consolidating their foundation.
Moreover, the Peiyuan Pill would generate heat in the user's body after consumption. The desert night was freezing cold, and there were no blankets on hand. The main reason was that Li Ling had forgotten to pack blankets in the Qiankun World. Since he was at a high level and impervious to heat and cold, he no longer needed such things. It seems that he must plan ahead in the future.
