When Qian Ying saw Ouyang Nan's expression, he instantly understood why. After some thought, he realized that if he did not explain things, Ouyang Nan would definitely be unwilling to take on the scouting mission.
Back in the hilly area, he had sent Ouyang Nan to lead a team across the canyon to investigate because it was their first mission, and neither she nor Zhou Zixing had expended much of their strength. Moreover, Ouyang Nan had just been expelled from the Ouyang Family and was in an awkward position. When Qian Ying assigned task, Ouyang Nan had no choice but to agree.
But after the previous mission, Ouyang Nan had already completed it, and she had done an excellent job.
Now, asking Ouyang Nan to carry out another scouting mission was somewhat unjustifiable. After all, scouting missions were extremely dangerous. Taking on such a mission meant risking one's life. No one knew what lay across the lake. If danger appeared and they could not retreat or respond in time, however many people went over might all die.
Besides, every member of the entire team was currently resting three hundred meters from the lakeshore, bored out of their minds. Since Ouyang Nan had been assigned the last mission, someone else should have been assigned this one.
When it came to going to their deaths, it should be everyone's turn, shouldn't it?
Ouyang Nan hesitated, and she was surely considering whether to refuse. If Qian Ying did not resolve these issues, then if she refused, it would truly be difficult to arrange for other Martial Artists to scout the far side of the lake.
Furthermore, both Qian Ying and Zhou Zixing had nearly exhausted their Xiantian power. Even if they wanted to scout it personally, they lacked the strength to do so.
