Honestly, if Xiao Lin and his grandson Xiao Li had not come to Stone Desert City today, Xue Lan and Qing Lin would very likely have met tragic fates in the future!
After all, with the Desert Iron Mercenary Group gone, Luo Bu and his Sand Mercenary Group were practically the uncrowned kings of Stone Desert City!
Could anyone he set his sights on possibly escape?
So Xue Lan eventually falling into Luo Bu's hands was almost a foregone conclusion.
Fortunately, Xiao Lin and Xiao Li had arrived today.
Naturally, that tragedy would no longer come to pass!
By now, Xiao Lin and Xiao Li had learned practically the whole story from the passersby.
Xiao Lin remained unperturbed, but Xiao Li clearly could no longer contain his anger.
"This is utterly lawless! Grandpa, we can't just stand by and watch! Leaving the Sand Mercenary Group alive will only bring misery to everyone in Stone Desert City. We have to wipe them out! Just like those bandits we encountered along the way!"
Xiao Li whispered beside Xiao Lin, seething with indignation.
"I know. In fact, those two girls are the very people we came here for. By trying to take them from us, that fellow called Luo Bu has already given us grounds to kill him."
Xiao Lin's expression remained as calm as ever.
Of course, Xiao Lin had originally come solely for Qing Lin.
But since he had run into Xue Lan as well, he might as well take her along.
Although Xue Lan's cultivation talent was ordinary, she had served under his two grandsons in the original story, after all. Having encountered her, Xiao Lin could hardly leave her to her fate.
With the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace's resources, supporting a single Xue Lan was hardly beyond its means.
