Xuanyue said, "Stand beside me and hold my hand. Use your mind to channel your magic power into my body, and then I'll cast the spell. This way, there's still a chance of success. The Serenity Spell is a sixth-level spell. I can only give it a try. Hopefully, I can cast it with the help of the staff. " On the continent, magic was divided into nine levels according to its strength. First-level and second-level spells were also known as beginner spells. Those who could use first-level and second-level spells were known as beginner mages. For example, the fireball and flame spells used by Dumb were first-level spells, but these two spells could change according to the caster's magic power. Flame Meteor was a relatively advanced second-level spell. The dark blue Flame Meteor used by Dumb had reached the strength of a third-level spell. That was why Keager had identified him as an intermediate mage. Third-level, fourth-level, and fifth-level spells were also known as intermediate spells. Those who could use fourth-level spells could be certified as advanced mages. As for the great mages, they had to be able to use at least two fifth-level spells or one sixth-level spell. Sixth-level, seventh-level, and eighth-level spells were the true advanced spells. Many advanced spells were large-scale attack spells with earth-shattering power. Take the Demon Flame Warlock Goris for example. Although his magic had only reached the level of an Archmage, and he could only use a few level-five spells, the fusion magic of darkness and fire that he used could reach the level of a level-seven spell when fully cast. Therefore, he could barely be called a Magic Shooter. A mage who could use two seventh-level spells could be called a magic shooter. As for the highest title, an archmage, one had to be proficient in using eighth-level spells. Today, excluding the Holy Hall, there were only three mages on the continent who had reached the level of an archmage. All of them had the ability to destroy the world. Ninth-level spells, also known as forbidden spells, could only be used by several mages who had reached the level of an archmage. It could almost be said that such spells had disappeared.

"Okay." Dumb agreed and quickly went to Xuanyue's side. He held her soft little hand and closed his eyes. Just as he was about to use his spiritual power to send it over, he heard Xuan Yue say in a low voice, "If you save that silly brother of yours, you can't be angry with me anymore. You have to call me Yue Yue, do you hear me?"

Dumb opened his eyes and looked at Xuanyue. She had a faint smile on her face and stuck her tongue out at him provocatively. It was indescribably cute. Nodding his head, Dumby indicated that he agreed.

Xuan Yue retracted the mischievous smile on her face and looked sternly at Rock who was being attacked by everyone. In a deep voice, she said, "Let's begin."

Dumby closed his eyes again and used his consciousness to control his mind power to slowly flow towards the Mystic Moon. It was extremely difficult to control the flow of mind power, and it was extremely painful. When the mind power left the acupuncture point between his eyebrows, Dumby suddenly felt his mind go blank, as if it had been sucked dry. His body couldn't help but sway. He clenched his teeth and endured the pain of the mind being drained. He controlled the energy that seemed to have a physical body to flow to his palm through his right arm. Finally, under Dumb's unremitting efforts, the mana finally flowed into his palm. Xuanyue's little hand trembled slightly. Dumb suddenly felt that his body seemed to have become one with Xuanyue. He could clearly feel the energy flowing in Xuanyue's body.

Dumb realized that Xuanyue's body seemed to be covered in a golden glow. Everywhere was filled with a strange feeling of holiness. After the mana entered Xuanyue's body, it immediately followed a certain path and flowed into Xuanyue's body. Xuanyue's mana did not seem to be as strong as the mana he transferred, but her mana seemed to be very different from his. It was an indescribable feeling.

As Dumb transferred the mana over, he constantly adjusted the vital energy in his body to support himself so that he would not collapse due to over-exhaustion of his mind.

Xuanyue felt a pure and thick mana coming from Dumb's hand. Although it was far from her father's ocean-like energy, it was very pure and did not seem to have any impurities. She carefully controlled the external mana and melted it into her body. She took a deep breath and stared at the crazy Yanshi. She chanted the strange incantation. "Great God of Heaven! As your loyal believer, I beg you, scatter the holy light from the endless ocean of light into the world. Fill my body and use it to save the world. " As Xuanyue chanted, her body suddenly lit up. Although the silver bell-like voice was not loud, it clearly reached everyone's ears. An auspicious aura emanated from Xuanyue. In the center of the light, Xuanyue was as beautiful as a fairy, like a saintess. Dumb, who was beside her, suddenly felt that his mind was being rapidly drained. His body could not help but tremble. The voices around him became softer and softer. It seemed that he could not hear clearly anymore. He could only rely on his willpower to support his body.

The golden light on Xuanyue's body became brighter and brighter. The top-grade magic crystal in the center of the wand in her hand suddenly lit up. Xuanyue raised the wand high up. The two angel-like wings emitted a faint white light, setting off the golden light of the magic crystal. The mana in Xuanyue's body kept flowing into the wand. Even she swayed a little because of the excessive consumption of her mind. However, she had to hold on, because the incantation was not over yet. In the air, the magical elements rapidly fluctuated, forming a natural golden shield around Xuanyue and Dumb. Moon Mark and the others were immediately pushed three meters away. Seeing such a magical light, all the Puyan people, except for the warriors who were still surrounding Yanshi, quieted down.

Dumby's consciousness was completely blurred. The magic power in his body had already been transferred to Xuan Yue's body. The two of them were like one. Dumby's body was subconsciously standing there. He was completely unaware of what was happening around him. Everything was under Xuanyue's control.

After calming down, Xuanyue barely controlled the huge amount of energy gathered on the wand in her hand. She continued to chant, "Endless holy light! You are the purest power in the world. Use your righteous and peaceful aura to quell all agitation, restore peace to the heart, restore wisdom to the body, and condense power in the body. Go, Light of Tranquility, blessed by the gods. " The Light of Tranquility, known as the Calming Incantation, was originally a large area of effect support magic. It could dispel manic, chaotic, detoxify and other abnormal states, and restore the user's calmness. It also had a certain degree of healing power. In light magic, it was rarely used, because its auxiliary effect in battle was not as good as the level-4 Light of Blessing. However, its specialty lay in its ability to dispel manic and detoxify. Now, it was most suitable for Rock.

The huge amount of holy energy around Xuanyue gradually condensed in the magic crystal at the top of the wand under the urging of the incantation. If it wasn't for this wand that was close to a divine artifact, Xuanyue would have a hard time even using a level-3 light magic with her own strength. Xuanyue's bright eyes were wide open. She pointed the wand in Yanshi's direction. The top-quality magic crystal shone brightly, and a golden cloud of light suddenly floated out, enveloping Yanshi and the dozens of people around him. After all, Xuanyue's strength was too weak. She could only use less than one-third of the power of the Light of Tranquility. That was why it could only cover such a small area. But for now, this was enough. Yanshi, who was enveloped in the golden light, suddenly stiffened. He held his dead wife with both hands and stood there motionless, gasping for breath. His red eyes gradually returned to brown, and two streaks of blood flowed down his face. His whole body became lifeless. And the warriors around him, with the help of the Light of Tranquility, immediately became spirited. They quickly rushed to Yanshi's side and successfully restrained him.

The light dissipated, and Dumb could no longer hold on. He fell to the ground with a plop. Xuanyue's mind was blank. Her body swayed, and she sat on the ground. Finally, she couldn't hold on any longer, and fainted on Dumb's body. But their hands were still tightly held together, and they didn't let go. Both of them lost consciousness almost at the same time.

After an unknown amount of time, Dumb slowly woke up. His brain was groggy, and it was obvious that he hadn't recovered because of the excessive mental strength consumption. The sound of the carriage's wheels kept coming. After a long time, he completely woke up. Opening his eyes, he saw Xuanyue beside him, leaning on him. She was still in a deep sleep. His hand was holding Xuanyue's, and that soft and creamy feeling made Dumb's face burn. Xuanyue's small hand was also holding his tightly, and her palms were already soaked with sweat. Dumb thought to himself, since she's still asleep, I'll just hold it for now. Looking around, it turned out that they were back in the carriage. Yue Hen and Yue Ji were sitting opposite, resting with their eyes closed. Miao Fei was leaning on the side, snoring weakly.

"Yue Hen, Big Brother Yue Hen," Dumb called out in a low voice.

Yue Hen opened his eyes. When he saw that Dumb had woken up, his eyes couldn't help but flash with joy. "Brother Dumb, how are you? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

Dumb shook his head and said, "It's nothing. I'm just a little weak. Are we on our way again? How is Big Brother Yanshi? Are we just going to leave him like this? I don't even know how his wife died. Big Brother Yanshi is really too pitiful. "

Yue Hen smiled bitterly and said, "We're on our way, but we're on our way to the Puyan people's chief's tribe. You and Miss Xuanyue have been unconscious for a day. Yesterday afternoon, the Tranquil Heart Incantation that you guys used together was very effective. Before Yanshi consumed his life force, you were able to dispel his berserk state. However, his wife's death is still a mystery until now. So the people in the tribe decided to send Yanshi and his wife to the Puyan people's chief. They were afraid that Yanshi would go berserk again, so they knocked him out. Now, he's in a carriage behind us, along with his wife's coffin. The Puyan people are very grateful to you. Without your help, I'm afraid that Yanshi's life would be in danger. However, they said that we're outsiders and are suspicious, so they didn't let us go. They said that we have to go to their chief's place, and their chief will decide whether we should stay or leave. Outside, there's a total of five hundred Puyan people elite warriors' escorting 'us. Looks like our journey to the Death Mountain Range is going to be difficult. I really didn't expect that we'd encounter such a thing. "

Dumb sighed and said, "Big Brother Yanshi is really too pitiful. He must have loved his wife very much. Sigh — — let's go and take a look. I also want to know what's going on. Who's the bad guy that killed Big Brother Yanshi's wife? "

Yue Ji opened her eyes and said, "Aren't you afraid that they'll use us as scapegoats? With the Puyan people's hatred towards outsiders, I'm afraid that even if we go, we won't have a good time! If it wasn't for their numbers, and the two of you fainting, we would've thought of a way to leave this place. It was really a miscalculation at that time. It would've been better to take a detour to the Yalian people's side. Although it's a little far, at least we wouldn't have fallen into such an awkward situation now. "

Dumb was stunned and said, "Why would they use us as scapegoats? We didn't do anything!"

Yue Ji curled her lips and said, "You, are really too naive. Don't tell me that the murderer hiding in the dark won't frame us? Although we're going back together with Yanshi, don't forget that the Puyan people are very united. They won't suspect their own clansmen at all. As for us outsiders, it just so happens that we're the targets of suspicion. "

Yue Hen sighed and said, "What my sister said makes sense. It's hard to predict whether we'll be lucky or not when we meet the Puyan people's chief this time!"

Yanshi's wife died. Dumb's heart had always been very depressed. Although he didn't interact with Yanshi for a long time, he really liked Yanshi's straightforward and heroic character.

"Yes." Xuanyue's body moved. She raised her head that was resting on Dumb's shoulder and looked at Dumb in a daze. She said blankly, "Where is this? It's so sad! My whole body is so soft. "

As if recalling the scene of Xuanyue casting the Light of Tranquility that day, Yue Hen's eyes revealed a look of admiration. "Miss Xuanyue, your magic is really amazing. To be able to reach this level at your age, you must have trained hard for a long time."

Xuanyue looked at Yue Hen and sat up straight. Her pretty face blushed slightly. When she was in the Holy Hall, she was famous for being mischievous. Even her father couldn't control her. Not to mention training hard, she almost didn't train properly for a day. If it wasn't for the Pope and the Cardinal who doted on her and purified her body with their own holy power, she probably wouldn't even have reached the level of a beginner mage.

"Brother Yue Hen, are we on our way? Is that Yanshi already fine? It's so scary. The way his wife died was so scary. "

Yue Hen smiled bitterly and repeated what he had just said to Dumb.

After listening to Yue Hen's narration, Xuanyue snorted angrily and said, "They can't be unreasonable. We helped them out of kindness! Hey, Dumb, why are you grabbing my hand? "

Dumb blushed and said, "No, I'm not grabbing your hand. It's you who's grabbing me and not letting go!"

Xuanyue let go of Dumb's hand and said, "Nonsense. Who's grabbing your hand and not letting go? Dumb, are you taking advantage of me?"

Yue Ji flung her flame-like long red hair behind her back. Her pretty face was cold. She said angrily, "It's so dangerous now, and you're still in the mood to make a scene. You take advantage of me and I take advantage of you. Ever since you used that magic yesterday, your hands have been clasped together. We can't even pull them apart. Just consider it as you taking advantage of each other. "

Xuanyue stuck out her tongue at Yue Ji and glanced at Dumb. She said, "It must be because you passed your magic to me. Isn't that right, Dumb?"

Dumby shook his stiff right hand and said, "I, I don't know either. Maybe it's true. Miss, when we were in the Sorcerers Guild, your father gave me a magic scroll. He said that I can find him through the scroll when I'm in danger. Should we use this scroll now? Brother Yue Hen said that the Puyan people might not be good for us! "

Xuanyue widened her eyes and said, "Don't you dare. It's not easy for dad to ignore me. If I find him, I'll be captured again. Don't use it. Do you hear me? Even if there's danger, I'm not afraid. Ah! What did you call me just now? What did you promise me before I used the Light of Tranquility? "

Dumb then remembered that he promised Xuanyue to call her Yue. He stammered, "Okay, okay. Yue, Yue."

Yue Ji giggled and said sarcastically, "So intimate. Yue? Then wouldn't you be a dummy?"

Xuanyue first glared at Yue Ji, then said with satisfaction, "That's more like it. Dumb, how do you think Yanshi's wife died? He's really pitiful. He seemed to have a deep relationship with his wife. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so sad that he went crazy. I wonder who was so cruel to kill his wife. "

Yue Ji added, "It's rape first and then kill. That person must be a perverted pervert. If I find out who it is, I'll cut off that part of him."

Xuan Yue asked curiously, "Where should I chop him?"

When Yue Ji heard Xuanyue's naive question, she couldn't help but blush. She said, "Ask Dumb, I won't tell you."

Yue Hen frowned and said, "Little sister, you're getting more and more out of hand. Is that something a girl like you should say? Miss Xuanyue, don't listen to her nonsense. "

Xuanyue looked curiously at Yue Ji, who was blushing, and murmured, "Where is that?"

Yue Hen looked awkwardly at Dumb, who didn't know what was going on, and changed the topic. "I heard from the Puyan people that it takes two days to walk from Yanshi's tribe to his father's tribe. It's been more than a day now. I think we'll arrive before dark today. "This matter is very big. The Puyan people are a big tribe in the Federation. The wife of the patriarch's son was raped and killed for no reason. It will definitely cause a lot of trouble. "I don't know how their patriarch will deal with it. According to the Puyan people who investigated the scene, they didn't find any suspicious traces. The neighbors didn't hear anything from Yanshi's house. "The murderer seems to be a sadist. Yanshi's wife's arms and legs are completely fractured. She must have suffered a lot when she was alive. After the rape, the murderer stabbed a sharp weapon into her lower body to kill her. The method is extremely cruel. He must be a murderous demon."

At this moment, Miao Fei was also woken up by the crowd's conversation. He said doubtfully, "Boss Yue, do you think it's the work of the Assassin Union? Only they can sneak into Yanshi's house without anyone knowing."

At the mention of the Assassin Union, Dumb's body couldn't help but tremble. He thought of the assassins who killed Owen and couldn't help but clench his fists.

Yue Hen shook his head and said, "It doesn't seem like it. It shouldn't be the work of the Assassin Union. Although the assassins in the Assassin Union are very ruthless and don't care about the target, they never have the habit of raping and killing. However, they never had the habit of raping and killing. They would usually get rid of their targets cleanly and then escape. "The murderer should be someone who is very familiar with Yanshi's house. According to my guess, it might be done by someone from their tribe. They should have a deep hatred for Yanshi. "

Dumb gradually calmed down and said, "But Big Brother Yanshi once said that the Puyan people are very simple!"

Yue Ji snorted and said, "There's no knowing what's in a man's heart. There might be sand in a pot of sweet porridge. "Who knows? Don't forget that Yanshi's house is in the center of the tribe. During the day, there are people everywhere in the Puyan people's tribe. Even if they fly, as long as they're outsiders, it's hard not to be discovered by the Puyan people. So, only their own people can sneak into his house without alerting others. "

Miao Fei lowered his head and said, "I hope the Puyan people's leader can find the murderer wisely and not use us as scapegoats. Boss Yue, I'm going to change Wan Li's carriage so that he can rest. "

Yue Hen nodded, and Miao Fei nimbly leaped out. The carriage stopped, and Wan Li boarded before moving forward again.

Once Wan Li boarded the carriage, he said, "I heard from the Puyan people that Yanshi seems to have woken up. He doesn't make a fuss and seems to have become stupid. He doesn't say a word. "

Yue Hen sighed and said, "There's nothing more sorrowful than a dead heart. The death of his wife has left a deep wound on Yanshi."

Dumb looked at Yue Hen and said, "I want to go see Big Brother Yanshi and see if I can help him."

Yue Hen was stunned and said, "It's useless even if you go. It's better if you don't, in case you cause a misunderstanding."

Dumb shook his head and said, "No, I want to go see him. I know how it feels to lose a loved one. It's too painful." With that, he ignored Yue Hen's obstruction and jumped off the carriage. Surprisingly, Xuanyue, who always liked to control Dumb, closed her eyes and meditated as if she didn't see it.

Dumby jumped off the carriage and found that he was surrounded by Puyan Tribe warriors with long swords on their backs. They were all wearing light armor, surrounding the carriage that he was sitting in. Behind the carriage, there was an even wider carriage. Around the carriage, there were more than ten warriors with heavy auras. Although the sun was shining brightly, their faces all had a hint of gloom. Presumably, Yanshi should be in this carriage.

At this time, the carriage behind had already arrived in front of Dumb. Dumb said to the leader of the warriors, "Big brother, I heard that Big Brother Yanshi has woken up. I want to see him. Is that okay?"

The warrior frowned and said, "The Yanshi Brothers have just woken up. It's better not to disturb him. Mr. Magician, you should return to your carriage. When we reach the patriarch, there will be a fair judgment. "

Before Dumb could say anything, a horse galloped from the front. The person sitting on the horse was the strong man who was in front of Yanshi's house. He changed into black armor and also carried a long blade on his back. He rushed to the warrior in front of the carriage and asked, "What's wrong?"

The warrior bowed to the strong man and said, "Brother Rock Giant, this Mr. Magician said he wants to see Big Brother Yanshi."

Rock Giant looked at Dumb and smiled. "That day, it was all thanks to you and that Miss Magician's magic that Yanshi didn't die. Sigh … This time, Yanshi's injuries are too deep. I tried to comfort him, but his current situation … Forget it. If you want to see him, then go. But don't talk to him for too long. He needs rest."

Dumb was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Brother Rock Giant." Then, he slipped behind Yanshi's carriage and jumped on it.

Watching Dumb get on Yanshi's carriage, Rock Giant's eyes revealed a strange light. He turned his horse around and returned to the front of the group.

Dumb entered the carriage and saw Yanshi lying flat on the side of the carriage. His body was tied to a thick wooden board. Yanshi's eyes were dull as he looked at the black coffin next to him. There was no light in his eyes. His face was pale as if he hadn't recovered from yesterday's Frenzy.

Dumb softly said, "Big Brother Yanshi, are you feeling better?"

Yanshi didn't say anything. He continued to stare at the coffin next to him as if he didn't hear Dumb's words.

Dumb sat next to Yanshi and whispered, "Big Brother Yanshi, I know you are sad about sister-in-law's death, but you have to pull yourself together! The murderer hasn't been caught yet. If you continue to sink like this, sister-in-law won't be able to rest in peace. "Dumb's heart was strangely depressed. Looking at Yanshi's appearance, he felt very sad.

Yanshi still didn't move. He still maintained his previous posture.

Dumb held Yanshi's ice-cold hand and said, "Big Brother Yanshi, I don't know how to speak. Sister-in-law's death must have deeply affected you. Not long ago, my beloved uncle died. At that time, I was just as grief-stricken as you. My uncle was also killed. But my current martial arts are too weak. I have no way to avenge him. I was orphaned since I was a child. It was my teacher who took me in. He taught me magic and alchemy. But not long after, I met my uncle. At that time, my uncle was poisoned. He forcefully took me away from my teacher's home and brought me to the Suo Yu Federation. He began to teach me martial arts. In the beginning, I missed my teacher very much and hated my uncle. Later, after a long period of getting along with my uncle, he always treated me very well. I discovered that he was also a good person. But just as I established a deep relationship with my uncle, my uncle's enemies came. Because of them, my uncle overused his dou qi, causing the poison to act up and kill him. I really miss my uncle. If only he was still alive, how great would that be! " At this point, Owen's figure kept flashing in front of Dumb. He couldn't help but shed tears. His tears fell on Yanshi's big hand. Yanshi seemed to move a little.

After a long while, Dumb's mood calmed down a little. He continued, "Big Brother Yanshi, pull yourself together. Sister-in-law's blood feud is still waiting for you to avenge her. If you continue to sink like this, the happiest person would be the enemy who killed sister-in-law. Just now, I heard Big Brother Yue Hen's analysis. He said that the person who most likely killed sister-in-law is your tribe's clansmen! "

Hearing Dumb's words, Yanshi's eyes flashed. He kept shaking his head, "No, it's impossible. It's impossible. Our clansmen are so kind. How could they kill Yun 'er? "

Dumb copied Yue Ji's words and said, "Even if it's a pot of sweet porridge, there might still be sand. This kind of thing is hard to say! In broad daylight, only your clansmen could enter your house. Big Brother Yanshi, think about it. Do you have any enemies in your tribe? "

Yanshi shook his head and said, "My clansmen have a very good relationship with me. How could I have any enemies? Yun 'er, Yun' er, why did you leave just like that? How can I live if you leave me alone in this world? Brother, do you know how important Yun 'er is to me? We grew up together. Yun 'er doesn't have any illustrious background. She's younger than me by two years. Her parents passed away when she was young. It was my father who kindly took her in. She has always considered herself as my maidservant. When I was young, she started taking care of my daily life. She is so kind, so beautiful, her meticulous care and concern for me is unmatched by anyone else. When I'm angry, she comforts me. When I'm in pain, she accompanies me. When I'm sick, she takes care of me. When I'm in a bad mood, she cares for me. She's my eternal angel. In my heart, even the position of the leader of the Puyan people isn't as important as her. When I was eighteen, we fell in love. She didn't want to accept me at first. I know that she loves me. From our interactions, I clearly understand that she has the same feelings for me. The reason why she didn't accept me was because she felt that her identity wasn't good enough for me. But what does my love for her have to do with my identity? I love her as a person. It's her kind heart! Under my repeated pleas, she finally accepted me. Brother, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. In order to win her heart, I once knelt in front of her and begged her! Maybe my persistence moved her, and she finally opened her heart to me, and we got together. "
