After Qin Yuanfeng briefly explained the situation to the villagers, he returned to the place where he had stayed during his previous visits. That night, lying in bed, his mind was a whirlwind of thoughts. His journey into the Human Emperor's Tomb for over half a year had been like a long and perilous dream. Although he had now returned safely, he faced new problems. The threat of Organization X hung over his heart like a dark cloud, and his deep yearning for his family filled him with an urgent desire to return home.
The next morning, sunlight spilled over the small village. Qin Yuanfeng rose early, packed his simple luggage, and walked toward where he had parked his car. Seeing his vehicle, he couldn't help frowning. The car was covered in a thick layer of dust; clearly, it had been left parked here alone for more than half a year.
Qin Yuanfeng opened the car door, sat in the driver's seat, and inserted the key to start the engine. However, the car remained completely unresponsive. His heart sank as he realized the battery was dead. He tried a few more times, but the car still wouldn't start. With a helpless sigh, he patted the steering wheel, then stepped out to inspect the surroundings in the hope of finding a solution. But in this small village nestled at the foot of the Kunlun Ruins, vehicle repair services were entirely nonexistent, nor did any cars pass by nearby.
