Ice River Valley Courts Death
The familiar figure, but with white hair unlike anything seen before, caused Xiao Yan to hesitate briefly.
To be honest, if this were in the Northwest Continent, Xiao Yan would have rushed forward without hesitation to confirm it.
But now that they were in Central Plains, he wondered if he was being too sensitive and had misjudged the situation.
After all, according to what Xiao Yi Xian said, she would travel to the Cloud Empire.
If that's the case, then it's highly unlikely that it would appear in Central Plains!
In fact, after he parted ways with Xiao Yi Xian in the Magical Beast Mountain Range, he did tell Xiao Yi Xian the address of the Xiao Household.
Clearly, Xiao Yan hoped that Xiao Yi Xian would come to find him in the future.
However, when he returned to the Xiao Household after graduating from the Jia Nan Academy and asked his parents if anyone had come to see him, the answer was no.
Xiao Yan was disappointed by this for a long time.
However, to his surprise, he encountered someone here who resembled Xiao Yi Xian!
In an instant, countless questions flooded Xiao Yan's mind.
Why did Xiao Yi Xian come to Central Plains?
Why didn't they go to the Xiao Household to look for me?
Also, if the person in front of you is Xiao Yi Xian, why is her hair this color?
Just as Xiao Yan was hesitating whether to follow and confirm if that familiar figure was indeed Xiao Yi Xian, crowds of onlookers dispersed past him.
"Oh, what a pity. Two such beautiful girls are probably going to get messed up by Ice River Valley now."
"That's right! Although those two girls seem quite strong, they're still no match for Ice River Valley!"
"I wonder what those two girls' names are. How unlucky they were to be targeted by Ice River Valley and even tricked."
"Hehe, I was close enough to hear you."
As the last person finished speaking, the people around him all perked up their ears.
Even Xiao Yan, who had been standing quietly to the side, was no exception.
Although he had only recently arrived, he already had a general idea of what had happened based on the descriptions of passersby.
It's nothing more than Ice River Valley bullying others by taking advantage of its power, trying to force a sale, and taking advantage of those two girls.
Now, they're even using the pretext of inviting those two girls to visit the Ice River Valley to take them away.
This is Xiao Yan's understanding, which he developed based on the descriptions of passersby.
While this understanding may not be entirely accurate, it is not far off from the truth.
After all, Ice River Valley is powerful. In the eyes of passersby, weren't Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin only accepting the invitation because of pressure from Ice River Valley?
People tend to think from the perspective of the disadvantaged.
The present situation is no exception!
However, it's still hard to say which side is the disadvantaged group!
Meanwhile, the man who had passed by Xiao Yan, seeing himself become the center of attention, smiled smugly and said, "I just heard them say that when those two women revealed their names, one said she was called Qing Lin, and the other said Xiao Yi Xian..."
"Call out"
Before the young man could finish speaking, a figure suddenly flashed before his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, he saw a man dressed in black, carrying a huge, jet-black ancient ruler on his back, blocking his way.
This startled him.
This young man was merely a Dou Wang, yet he could clearly sense the terrifying, scorching aura emanating from the man in black before him.
Therefore, he was certain that this was someone he couldn't afford to offend.
The one who stopped the young man was naturally Xiao Yan.
At that moment, a look of urgency and excitement flashed across his face.
However, his actions clearly startled the others around him as well.
Almost in a flash, as soon as Xiao Yan blocked the young man's path, the others scattered like birds and beasts.
The young man also wanted to leave, but at this moment, looking at Xiao Yan in front of him, he trembled and couldn't even move.
"Gulp~, Brother, brother, you've stopped me, is there, is there something you need?"
After swallowing hard, the young man cautiously asked.
"What did you just say were the names of those two girls?"
Xiao Yan asked somewhat anxiously.
"Ah?"
The young man was somewhat bewildered.
"Phew~, I mean, didn't you just mention those two girls who had a conflict with Ice River Valley? I want to know, what were the names those two girls revealed?"
Xiao Yan took a deep breath and tried to ask again in a calm tone.
"Oh, so you wanted to know the names of those two girls? That scared me! I thought..."
After letting out a long sigh of relief, the young man, who had originally wanted to make a few more comments, dared not delay any longer when he saw Xiao Yan's eager gaze fixed on him.
"I was standing quite close and heard it clearly. One of the girls was named Qing Lin, and the other Xiao Yi Xian!"
"Call out"
As soon as the young man finished speaking, Xiao Yan's figure vanished in the blink of an eye, just as he had appeared moments before.
Young man. "... Is he going to play the hero and rescue a damsel in distress? Do people really exist like that these days?"
After a long while, the young man muttered a complaint.
"Thump~"
Just then, an elderly man with a sage-like demeanor passed by the young man.
"Um?"
However, as he hesitated and turned to look again, the old man had already disappeared from his sight.
The young man shook his head, feeling somewhat inexplicable about the day, and was too lazy to care about anything else.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin were carried forward by Tian Shuangzi and a group of people from Ice River Valley.
Behind them, Xiao Yan followed closely.
Behind Xiao Yan, Xiao Lin, with a playful expression, remained hidden in the Void, hanging at the very back.
This time, Xiao Lin didn't provide any guidance; Xiao Yan simply overheard what the young man said and then caught up with him.
However, Xiao Yan was not a reckless person, and he did not foolishly show himself to stop Tian Shuangzi and the others.
After all, Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin are following him now, and it would be bad if he acted recklessly and caused a misunderstanding!
After all, Ice River Valley is a powerful force, and now that he's traveling, he still has to consider the interests of the Starfall Pavilion behind him in everything he does.
Of course, if he follows behind and discovers that Ice River Valley truly harbors ill intentions towards Xiao Yi Xian, then I'm sorry.
I don't care about Ice River Valley or Ice River Valley, I'm going to beat up Ice River Valley!
It can be said that although Xiao Yan is cautious, he is definitely not a coward!
However, Xiao Yan was unaware that behind him, his own grandfather, the sixth son, was watching the spectacle with great interest, eager to see what would happen!
"Ice River Valley, ah, that sounds like a great place!"
Xiao Lin, who was hidden in the Void, suddenly uttered a meaningful whisper.
Yeah, now he's just waiting for Ice River Valley to do something stupid!
