Xiao Yan couldn't help but stretch. In this case, Magical Beast Mountain Range's trip should be almost over.
Yun Zhi opened her eyes slightly and saw the young man slowly walking towards her.
"Is it all over?"
"Yeah."
After leaving Magical Beast Mountain Range, Yao Wan began to prepare for everything that needs to be done next.
Magical Beast Mountain Range's journey, helping Xiao Yan get through the difficulties smoothly is secondary, more important is making Yao Wan understand one thing.
The future is not set in stone.
Maybe it will be better, maybe it will be worse.
Xiao Yan's encounter this time is like a reminder to Yao Wan. This time is an opportunity for Xiao Yan, but the next time it might be dangerous.
"Ah... it's true."
Thinking of this, Yao Wan couldn't help but rub his eyebrows in the air, feeling inexplicably irritable.
She just didn't like the unknown feeling of being off the established track, and her original plan of just watching Xiao Yan proceed step by step also fell through.
When it got dark, Nalan Yanran, who had been practicing sword practice all day in the yard, finally saw the completely different cyan color flashing under the setting sun.
A trace of joy appeared on her face unconsciously, and she quickly walked forward and saw the beauty falling lightly on the ground.
"You're back from work?"
"Yeah, but I'm afraid I can't stay here any longer."
But before Nalan Yanran could finish what she wanted to say, such sudden news from Yao Wan caught her off guard.
"Huh?"
Nalan Yanran was a little unresponsive, and for a moment he thought he was delusional.
"Wait, did I hear you correctly? Why are you leaving again so suddenly?"
Nalan Yanran was a little anxious, saying that he didn't want Yao Wan to leave, and said urgently, "Isn't there still one year before Three-Year Agreement?"
"Well, there is indeed a lot of time left, but there is not much time left for me."
Yao Wan couldn't help but touch Nalan Yanran's cheek. She knew how clingy Nalan Yanran was now, and she could guess that she said this out of dependence on herself.
But time waits for no one.
"Time waits for no one... I still have many important things to do, and I'm afraid I won't be able to stay by your side."
Her soft fingertips gently stroked the girl's cheek, then brushed her beautiful eyebrows and said.
"Then... then I'll go with you - is that okay?"
Nalan Yanran grabbed Yao Wan's fingertips and said.
"What about your own cultivation? I can go back and forth from here to the Magical Beast Mountain Range in one day, but you can't even Dou Qi Wings. How can you say that?"
Yao Wan smiled and shook his head, then asked.
Nalan Yanran naturally did not have the confidence to answer, but looked directly at Yao Wan with slightly stubborn eyes.
But on this issue, Yao Wan will not be so patient in persuading Nalan Yanran. This has nothing to do with what choice she makes now. After all, if she leaves her, Nalan Yanran will still become the same as before. Her efforts for more than a year can be considered to be playing the piano to others.
After a moment of silence, Nalan Yanran said in a low voice, "Okay - I understand. I will continue to work hard for Three-Year Agreement. I hope you will come and watch me defeat Xiao Yan."
"I just left for something, and it's not like I will never come back."
Yao Wan automatically ignored Nalan Yanran's heroic words and said with a smile.
Seeing Yao Wan say this, the uneasiness on Nalan Yanran's face subsided a little. He nodded lightly and said nothing more.
She is naturally afraid that Yao Wan will say some strange and irrelevant words, which will do nothing but increase anxiety.
"Okay, it's getting late, so let's go to bed early."
With that said, before Nalan Yanran could agree, Yao Wan pushed her into her own room, and then flicked her jade fingers to light up the oil lamps and candles in the room.
"... When are you leaving? Right away? Or..."
"You have such an expression. I won't even stay with you for the last night. Nalan Isn't it possible that little pearls will fall out of the quilt at night?"
Yao Wan turned around and said teasingly, causing Nalan Yanran's cheeks to turn red, and he said angrily, "How is it possible...? I won't——"
"Really? Then I'll leave right now."
"That won't do—"
Nalan Yanran quickly grabbed Yao Wan's clothes without even thinking about it, preventing her from leaving.
"Haha, idiot."
Yao Wan smiled when he saw this.
"Just be a fool, I'm used to being scolded by you anyway——"
After Nalan Yanran calmed down, she simply put on her usual indifferent look, making Yao Wan laugh again.
"The fact that you can do this makes me feel relieved."
Sitting on the bed, Yao Wan looked at Nalan Yanran and said.
"Why don't you worry? Do you think I have changed?"
"Isn't it?"
Yao Wan asked with a smile.
"Starting from tomorrow, you can go back to the Yun Lan Sect directly. Practice well according to what I taught you. It won't be a big problem to cross a big realm in the future. You don't have to worry that I can't find you. If I want to find you, I will come to the Yun Lan Sect."
Although somewhat reluctant, Nalan Yanran nodded.
"By the way, this is for you."
Yao Wan took out a jade bottle from Storage Ring and handed it to Nalan Yanran.
"This is..."
Nalan Yanran was vaguely aware that this thing was definitely not simple, but he didn't know what to say.
"This is a cultivation elixir I specially refined based on your skills and your physique. Take it when you break through Da Dou Shi."
"You haven't finished eating some of the elixirs I gave you before, right? In that case, I won't give you more. After all, medicines are three-part poison. Even the elixirs I refined are like this. Everything should be done to the best of my ability."
"..."
Nalan Yanran listened to Yao Wan in silence.
But suddenly, the girl hugged Yao Wan's waist and threw her onto the bed.
"... Don't you usually want me to rest more?"
Nalan Yanran said, "In that case, I don't want to mention anything about cultivation tonight, okay?"
"Okay."
Yao Wan exhaled a breath, then hugged Nalan Yanran's head.
"When I'm not here, you have to do everything by yourself."
"After all, I can't stay by your side forever. You are you, you are Nalan Yanran, followed by Miss Nalan Family and Young Sect Master of the Yun Lan Sect."
"I hope I can see a different you next time we meet."
"Okay... I've taken care of your wounds too. Go to sleep, little bird. It's time to fly tomorrow."
