If it weren't for seeing it with your own eyes, Dongfang City wouldn't have believed that the afterglow of the sunset would turn out like this.

Looking at the ruins around, Dongfang City turned around to seek answers.

"We haven't gone far in the forbidden area, why did we become like this when we came back? Why are there ruins everywhere?"

Moreover, in this ruin, he did not even see the existence of the palace, as if everything was gone.

Nan Yu'er's expression did not change at all, and her eyes remained in the distance.

“The palace is still there.”

A plaque stands among the ruins in the distance, which is exactly one hanging from the palace before.

Nangong Wenwen walked over and reached out to stroke the dust on the plaque.

Just as Nangong Wenwen was about to do something, Nan Yuer spoke out to stop him.

Nangong Wenwen looked at Nan Yu'er with some confusion, but she didn't quite understand.

"It has become like this, so don't do those useless work."

When Nan Yuer was talking, she was also thinking in her eyes. He always felt that the current situation was a bit unreal.

But there was indeed the ruins left by the flames around him, and there was no other power, nor the illusion he sensed.

The group continued to walk forward and reached the center of the palace.

Of course, the palace today only leaves nothingness.

Dongfangcheng looked left and right, but he didn't speak for a long time.

"Even if the surroundings turn into ruins, there is no one without a single person. I remember that when the flames burned before, the masses had retreated and did not stay in the afterglow of the sunset?"

"Maybe they have found other exits and have left."

This is the best explanation now.

Hearing Nan Yuer's words, Dongfangcheng paused slightly.

The entire sunset is standing in the sea, where can those people retreat?

Even if he found a safe place, it should be nearby. It is impossible for him to have no one, not to mention that he didn't even feel the breath of survival.

This place has become a dead place.

It was just a period of time when I first entered the forbidden area, how could there be so many changes?

Just when Dongfang City wanted to ask something, Nan Yuer stepped forward and saw a highlight in the ruins.

There should have been something there before, but now only one trace is left.

Nan Yuer half-squatted down and picked up a piece of debris.

"I think I should know where they are going."

After saying this, in Dongfangcheng's surprised gaze, Nan Yu'er cut her wrist with the fragment without any hesitation.

Blood fell into the ruins bit by bit, and Nan Yu'er's face gradually turned pale.

The feeling of blood loss was not very good, Nan Yuer turned her head and looked at Dongfangcheng.

"Do you believe me?"

Nangong Wenwen, who was standing beside him, came to Nan Yuer's side and bandaged the wound with the handkerchief he carried with him.

However, before the wound was covered, Nan Yuer threw away the handkerchief herself.

Facing Nangong Wenwen and Dongfangcheng's unbelievable eyes, Nan Yuer slowly shook her head.

“This is not the sunset.”

Both of them were very surprised when they heard Nan Yuer's words.

"How could it be that this place is not the afterglow of sunset? It is the territory of the afterglow of sunset from the forbidden area. Even if it has become a ruin, you cannot refuse to admit that it is not the afterglow of sunset?"

Dongfangcheng really doesn't understand Nan Yuer's brain circuit.

But as time passed, Nan Yuer's breathing became weaker, as if the fragments just now had a great blow to him.

Originally, Nangong Wenwen wanted to save Nan Yu'er, but was rejected.

"This is not the afterglow of the sunset." Nan Yu'er's last sentence will always be this.

Nangong Wenwen looked up with confusion when Nan Yuer closed her eyes.

Then the surroundings were like fragmented, slowly disappearing from their sight.

Nangong Wenwen felt that the land under her feet became softer and had a grainy feeling.

Looking down, I found that the land had become sand for no reason, because they were still in the desert.

Nan Yuer, who should have died, was worried and looked at Nangong Wenwen reaching out to touch her forehead.

"I thought I had to wait for you two for a while before I could wake up. I didn't expect you two to be okay, and I didn't ask me to wait for long."

Nangong Wenwen is very confused about what is happening now.

He needs an answer.

Facing Nangong Wenwen's urgent eyes, Nan Yu'er sighed.

"When I saw that plaque, I realized that it could not be the afterglow of the sunset. Even if the Mermaid Emperor let the flames burn like this, it would not be possible for it to invade its territory."

"The flame itself is pride. How could it burn its own land without control?"

Nan Yuer's calm expression analyzed.

From the moment the flames burned, the mermaid was divided into two sides.

The afterglow of the sunset is no longer the afterglow of the sunset that used to be.

Although I don’t know why the Mermaid Emperor did this, Nan Yuer did not agree with this approach. This approach will only make things worse and worse, and is not a perfect solution at all.

"If we were always in the illusion before, how should we go out now? We can't wander here all the time. If we were always wandering here all the time, something would definitely happen."

"I understand." Nan Yu'er looked up at Dongfang.

Dongfangcheng, who woke up, looked confused, and he was still digesting what he had just said.

The sea water in the east emits a faint whiteness.

It's like some light shining on it, showing another world.

Nan Yu'er stood up and patted the dust on her body.

"Looking over there, maybe you can find a real exit."

He could not explain why he chose the East. It might be because his intuition told him that there must be the answer he wanted, and the end of everything might be there as the end.

Nangong Wenwen didn't know how to walk here, so he could only choose to believe in Nan Yuer.

After the group recovered their strength, they continued to walk forward.

The light of the east is still bright and not affected by any force. He is like a sign, standing there guiding everyone in the direction.

Just as Nan Yuer made her choice, the flames of the afterglow of the sunset became even more grand, as if we were welcoming a carnival.

The Mermaid Emperor stood at the top of the palace and looked towards the east.

There should have been the direction where the sun rises, but the seabed that remains unchanged all year round cannot be accessed.

Nan Cuixing stood with his hands behind his back.

"Why allow them to enter the forbidden area? You have already made your choices, so why do you still show mercy to them?"

Nan Cuixing really doesn't understand the Mermaid Emperor's approach. If he wants them to give up, he will give them the most painful blow, rather than being so let go.

Hearing Nan Cuixing's words, the Mermaid Emperor slowly turned his head, with more unsightly emotions in his eyes.

When facing the Mermaid Emperor's eyes, Nan Cuixing showed an unwilling expression.
