In the next few days, Gu Xing's body completely recovered.

During these days, he explored the entire village.

Only then could he be certain that earlier, it was definitely because of the chaotic Void turbulence that the two of them were swept to different places.

However....

Through this time, Gu Xing also realized.

In this world, it seems....

The most powerful talent is only the ten wings.

Moreover, the whole Angel Race is exceptionally united.

Therefore, as long as Liu Li with ten wings has not entered the territory of the Demon Race, the issue isn't very significant.

Now the difficulty is...

how he can gather information about Liu Li in this world.

As a human, trying to walk in a world filled with angels, a misstep could lead to being mistaken for a Demon Race spy.

"Sigh~"

Thinking of this, Gu Xing couldn't help but sigh.

Then, after taking a couple of deep breaths to calm down, Gu Xing tightened his black robe before heading toward the previous small house.

Over this period, he also learned the identity of the two angels who saved him.

The old angel is the village chief of this remote village, and the young one is the village chief's granddaughter, named Lanny.

The village is not large, he quickly returned to Lanny's home.

Because Lanny couldn't stay idle by nature, and Gu Xing had nothing to do these days, he often recounted various experiences in the Otherworld to her.

This also led to...

Recently, Gu Xing's image in Lanny's heart has rapidly elevated.

As soon as Gu Xing pushed the door open, Lanny immediately put on a face of pretend seriousness and warned:

"Why did you run out again? I told you before, your identity is too special, if other angels discover and report to the patrol team, you'll be in big trouble!"

With gratitude in his heart toward his saviors, Gu Xing smiled and explained lightly:

"Just went for a walk to get some fresh air."

Then, he switched the topic to the main issue: "Lanny, the information I asked you to find about Liu Li... any progress?"

Upon hearing this, Lanny couldn't help but roll her eyes.

She didn't believe Gu Xing's claim that he "contracted a ten-winged angel" at all.

But seeing his sincere attitude, she still helped to gather some information.

"The ten-winged angel you mentioned can't possibly appear in such remote areas."

She sighed, her tone softened, "Even if... even if the 'Guardian Beast' you mentioned is truly a ten-winged lord, she is most likely in the Holy City."

"And from here to the Holy City, it's as far as 108,000 miles—you're a human..."

She shook her head, "Better stop imagining."

Holy City!

Upon hearing Lanny's words, Gu Xing slightly frowned.

The distance wasn't very important.

Although he currently doesn't have a Guardian Beast by his side.

However, his Attributes, coupled with the Domain of Emperor's Might, could unleash his power at the Monarch Level.

While this isn't enough for him to roam freely in this world, it's not a problem for traveling.

"Which direction is the Holy City?"

Without hesitation, Gu Xing decisively asked.

Lanny was surprised by his words, gazing at him incredulously:

"You... you truly want to go to the Holy City? Are you insane!"

She shook her head repeatedly, continuously saying things like "you'll never make it."

However, under Gu Xing's eyes as firm as a mountain, she ultimately conceded.

"It's in the east..." she said softly, her tone still worried, "Keep heading east, and you should reach the Holy City."

"But along the way... there will be many Demon Race appearances."

"Thank you."

Gu Xing solemnly thanked her, then stood up to prepare to leave.

He couldn't afford to delay too long.

Currently, Liu Li's situation is entirely unknown.

Though no life-threatening danger, Liu Li must be extremely worried about him.

Moreover, his other Guardian Beasts are still in the Alternate Space.

If he is delayed too long in this world....

Who knows what kind of chaos the other Guardian Beasts might cause.

But before leaving...

Gu Xing pulled out two pieces of material from his Beast Taming Space and handed them to Lanny.

"You absolutely must accept this! And be sure to use them as I wrote!"

After saying this, without waiting for Lanny to respond, he turned and walked out the door.

What he left behind wasn't anything else...

But materials fit for both Lanny and her grandfather's upgrade.

After all, they saved his life.

He couldn't immediately think of another way to repay them.

Coincidentally, he had collected quite a bit of materials in his Beast Taming Space earlier.

It just happened to include materials that would allow two Two-winged Angels to break through.

Thus, he left them behind.

Not long after Gu Xing left, Lanny's grandfather walked in from outside.

Seeing his somewhat absent-minded granddaughter, the old man sighed.

"Lanny, we are not from the same world as him!"

Though it was only a few days, Gu Xing's demeanor still attracted this inexperienced young girl.

Lanny herself hadn't noticed, but as the only relative who grew up with her side by side from a young age.

He naturally understood his granddaughter's thoughts.

At this moment, Lanny looked somewhat dazed into her grandfather.

"Grandpa, do you think what Gu Xing said about contracting a ten-winged angel is true?"

The old angel shook his head, truthfully, he couldn't be certain either.

His gaze fell on the materials Gu Xing left behind, tentatively picking up a nearby note to examine.

After reading a few lines, his pupils contracted and, without hesitation, he tore the note to pieces, then quickly shut the doors and windows tightly.

Because the note clearly described how they might have a chance to ascend from two-winged angels to four-winged angels!

In this world, every additional two wings mean a monumental shift in status—

Two-winged angels occupy the bottom, while four-winged angels can join the middle-tier.

Now, the key capable of changing fate is laid before them.

At this moment, he suddenly found himself believing Gu Xing's claims.

Perhaps... he really did contract a ten-winged angel.

Thinking of this, he turned sharply to Lanny, with eyes full of conviction.

The child's parents had long perished in this border village.

This place could be invaded by the Demon Race at any time; he was old and unafraid to die, but Lanny was still young...

"Lanny, take these two pieces of material and go pursue Gu Xing—accompany him to the Holy City!"

Almost immediately, the old man made a resolute decision.

Though Lanny was still bewildered, seeing her grandpa's unprecedentedly serious demeanor, she refrained from asking more questions, instinctively turning to chase in the direction where Gu Xing left.

Watching his granddaughter's receding figure, the old man breathed a deep sigh of relief.

He knew what he did might upset Gu Xing.

But he had no choice.

The peace in the Angel Realm is merely an illusion; most of the territories have long been taken over by the Demon Race.

And their village at the border could be consumed by the Demon Tide, vanishing completely as soon as tomorrow.

Therefore, to ensure Lanny's survival, he had no other option.
