Huanhuan couldn't just leave Little Black be. He only got under Cynthia's control because he wanted to save her.
She had to find him and bring him back!
Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Xue Ling personally went to the vicinity of Elven God Mountain to search.
When they returned, Huanhuan hurriedly asked, "How did it go?"
Bai Di shook his head. "We didn't find him."
Shuang Yun poured himself a bowl of water and drank it all. He wiped his mouth. "Cynthia must have taken Yun Hui away."
As Xue Ling stroked Eggy, who was in his palm, he said, "Cynthia knows that her tracks have been exposed. She must have fled with Cyril and Yun Hui."
Huanhuan frowned. "Where could they have gone?"
The dawn continent was so big. It would be difficult to find them without knowing where to look.
Bai Di asked Huanhuan to think about it.
"When you faced Cynthia before, did you hear her mention her next goal or plan?"
Huanhuan recalled carefully. "She seemed to have mentioned before that she was going to a place called the secret dragon continent."
The secret dragon continent? Xue Ling thought for a moment and took out a map from his space.
Yun Hui had found this map in the treasure cave of Dragon Island. After lending it to Xue Ling, Xue Ling never returned it to him.
Xue Ling unfolded the map and tapped his finger on it. "This is the secret dragon continent. It's not far from the dawn continent. With our flying speed, it'll take us about half a month."
Compared to the beast continent, which took more than three months to reach the Dawn Continent, it was indeed relatively close to the secret dragon continent.
With a goal and a map, Huanhuan immediately made a decision. "There's no time to lose. Let's set off for the secret dragon continent!"
Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Xue Ling had no objections.
They went to say goodbye to Murphy.
Murphy couldn't bear to see Huanhuan leave, but he knew very well that all good things must come to an end. He and Huanhuan were destined to be apart.
He personally sent Huanhuan's family out of Misty Forest.
Huanhuan lifted the snow silk veil, revealing her beautiful face. She looked up at Murphy and said crisply, "You can just see us off her. You should go back."
Murphy looked down at her, his emerald eyes becoming very dark. "Before we part, can you promise me a small favor?"
"Huh?"
"I want to hug you. Can I?"
Huanhuan extended her arms very generously. "Sure!"
Murphy bent down and hugged her. He rested his chin on the top of her head and said in a low voice, "I wish you a safe journey. If you're free in the future, you must come to Elven Divine Mountain to have some fun."
"Yes, if you have time, you can come to the beast continent as a guest."
Bai Di was still smiling warmly even when he saw Huanhuan hugging the other men. He didn't notice anything unusual.
Shuang Yun crossed his arms and stood not far away. He snorted in dissatisfaction.
Xue Ling looked at them with a faint smile. "How long are you gonna hug here? If this drags on, the sun will almost set."
Huanhuan let go of Murphy and retorted angrily, "The sun has just risen, and you're already saying that it's about to set. You're lying through your teeth!"
"I'm indeed about to go blind. I was blinded by the scene of you two hugging each other tightly."
Xue Ling's mouth was as poisonous as ever, making Huanhuan speechless.
When she wasn't looking, Murphy kissed her quickly on the cheek. "Take care."
Before Huanhuan could react, Murphy had already retreated and turned around. He walked away without looking back.
His back view looked both determined and confident.
In the blink of an eye, Murphy was swallowed by the fog and completely disappeared into the depths of the forest.
Shuang Yun was especially unhappy!
He picked Huanhuan up and first wiped her face several times with his hand. Then, he stuck out his tongue and licked her entire face.
Huanhuan's face was covered in saliva.
It wasn't until she was covered in his scent that Shuang Yun finally let go of her in satisfaction. At the same time, he didn't forget to teach her a lesson. "Don't get too close to other males next time. They don't have good intentions toward you."
Huanhuan was speechless. "Not all the males in the world like me."
"You're so beautiful, your personality is cute, and you're smart. Any normal male will definitely like you!" Shuang Yun said firmly.
In his eyes, Huanhuan was a treasure. If others took another look, he would think they were coveting her. He could not tolerate it!
Huanhuan was helpless.
She took a cotton handkerchief from her space. After soaking it in water, she wiped the saliva off her face.
Bai Di transformed into a white tiger, and Huanhuan climbed onto his back.
Shuang Yun transformed into a Silvery Frost White Wolf and ran in front to be in charge of leading the way. Xue Ling spread his wings and flew into the sky. He held Eggy in his arms and touched them from time to time.
Huanhuan said slowly, "Let's go to Swan Valley first."
Back then, it took Huanhuan and Murphy more than a month to walk from Swan Valley to Elven God Mountain. Now, it only took Bai Di and the others about 10 days to bring Huanhuan back to Swan Valley.
After arriving at Swan Valley, Huanhuan found Mark and realized that he had built a very large studio in Swan Valley. To be precise, it was more like a factory.
In addition to Mark, there were more than 50 dwarves in the factory. They worked together to mass-produce cannons very quickly.
When Mark saw Huanhuan, he handed her the remaining eight cannons without a word.
Huanhuan checked to make sure that the quality of the cannons was fine.
She put the cannons into her space and looked at the factory behind him. She smiled and said, "It's been a few months since we last met. Your place has changed greatly!"
Mark puffed out his chest proudly. "This was all Patriarch Archie's idea. We've decided to expand the production of cannons. That way, when we face an enemy attack in the future, we won't be helpless and will be able to protect ourselves."
Compared to the stubborn and conservative old patriarch, the new patriarch, Archie, was more open-minded. After witnessing the powerful power of the cannons with his own eyes, he suggested expanding the production scale.
Now, the workflow of this factory was on track. On average, they could produce 10 cannons a month.
All the secret metal needed to make cannons was bought from the gnomes.
This deepened the relationship between the dwarves and the gnomes.
The gnomes relied on gold mines to earn money, and their quality of life had increased a lot.
When Huanhuan saw the gnomes again, she saw that they were no longer sallow. Not only had their faces become rosy, but their mental states were also much better.
Elman was grateful to his benefactor, Huanhuan. Seeing that she was back, he immediately put down his work and ran to her.
Huanhuan asked about the mining of the gold mine after she left.
Elman reported the mining work clearly. This gold mine was unexpectedly large. Now, they had only mined less than a quarter of it. The remaining three-quarters were still being mined. It was estimated that it would take at least three years for the mine to be exhausted.
However, Huanhuan did not plan to stay here for as long as three years.
