Luo Chen and Ling Yueyaya exchanged a glance, a hint of relief and pride flashing in their eyes. They had successfully defeated the Dark Demon, buying everyone a brief moment to catch their breath. However, they also knew this was not the end, and more challenges awaited them. So the two of them walked over to Carefree Meng Lan.

When they reached Ling Yueyun, Carefree Meng Lan was already inconsolable. Watching Ling Yueyun lying on the ground, her heart felt like it was being torn apart, and Luo Chen and Ling Yueyaya also felt a pang of heartache. They crouched down to carefully examine Ling Yueyun's injuries and found that while he was severely injured, his life was not in danger. This allowed them to breathe a slight sigh of relief. However, Carefree Meng Lan couldn't stop crying, overwhelmed by sorrow, so Luo Chen and Ling Yueyaya could only softly comfort her to calm her emotions for the time being.

The three of them sat by Ling Yueyun's side, guarding him as they awaited his awakening. During this time, they exchanged details of the previous battle and had a brief discussion about their next steps. Although the road ahead was long and arduous, they were fully prepared to face all challenges and difficulties. They firmly believed that as long as they remained united, nothing could hinder their progress.

Having survived the disaster, a deep sense of relief showed on Triangle Eye's face. However, alongside this relief was a hint of guilt. He was perfectly aware that if it weren't for his suggestion to explore this dangerous area, everyone wouldn't have suffered such substantial losses. Fortunately, heaven had mercy, and no one sacrificed their life.

He walked with somewhat heavy steps toward the Dark Demon's corpse. In that moment, the pain from his injuries seemed insignificant, because he knew that the forthcoming wealth would be the best reward for their adventure.

Unlike ordinary level four divine souls, the Dark Demon's body was almost entirely made up of precious treasures. Triangle Eye knelt down and began to carefully search the Dark Demon's corpse. Soon, a Spirit Pearl shimmering with a faint glow appeared in his hand.

"Little brother, this is the Dark Demon's Spirit Pearl, for you!" Triangle Eye, with one hand supporting another injured young man, tossed the cleaned-up Spirit Pearl toward Luo Chen with the other.

Luo Chen swiftly caught the Spirit Pearl, feeling the immense energy contained within it. However, he did not greedily keep it for himself; instead, he turned and handed it to Ling Yueyaya, "This is for you, I don't need it."

Ling Yueyaya received the Spirit Pearl, giggling as she teased, "Is this your token of love?" Her words carried a playful and joking tone.

Hearing this, Luo Chen was speechless. Really, you could even relate it to that? He smiled helplessly, not responding.

"Haha, it doesn't matter to whom it's given," Ling Yueyaya continued on her own when Luo Chen did not respond, "Do you still think it's a love token?" She blinked playfully.

"Ah, what a flirtatious little rascal, sister won't play with you anymore~" She giggled and turned away, walking over to help the seriously injured Ling Yueyun onto Carefree Meng Lan's back. Luo Chen looked at Ling Yue Mu and, seeing that he was also quite injured, walked over with some reluctance to offer his help.

"I don't need you to carry me." But Ling Yue Mu coldly refused Luo Chen's goodwill. He gritted his teeth hard, his brows furrowed deeply, a look of pain and anger on his face. He pushed away Luo Chen's outstretched hand, clearly not wanting to accept his help.

Seeing this, Luo Chen could only shrug helplessly at Carefree Meng Lan. She slightly shook her head but didn't speak; however, Luo Chen keenly caught a trace of discontent in her eyes.

Was she blaming him for waiting until the last moment to act, causing Ling Yueyun to be seriously injured? Luo Chen found himself thinking nervously, feeling a wave of guilt and self-reproach wash over him. But he quickly pushed those emotions aside; right now, the safety of everyone and their next steps were more important.

"Let's leave here first," Triangle Eye suggested, "Even though the Dark Demon is dead, there are still many valuable things on its body to collect, and we also need to find a safe place to rest and heal."

Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. With Triangle Eye leading, they began to orderly withdraw from this dangerous area. At the same time, they did not forget to pick up the treasures fallen from the Dark Demon's body. Everyone gained something, and the expressions on their faces gradually shifted from seriousness to relaxation.
