Deep within the Xilin Mountain Range, atop a mountain peak, Xiao Yan stood proudly, with the stunningly beautiful Leng Bingshuang standing silently beside him. Her delicate face was expressionless, but her gaze, occasionally glancing at the black-robed youth beside her, held a hint of resentment.
At this moment, Xiao Yi Xian and the others stood quietly in front of Xiao Yan Xiao Yan, dozens of eyes falling on him, filled with awe.
After witnessing Xiao Yan's terrifying speed that day, the black-robed youth suddenly gained immense importance in their hearts.
That speed was truly terrifying, even surpassing the speed of the Northern King they had ever seen. It was hard to imagine that he was merely a Middle Origin Transformation Realm expert.
No wonder he was able to kill Qin Xu; without sufficient strength, it would be difficult for an ordinary person to do so.
Afterwards, Xiao Yan entrusted Tian Ying to lead the thirty-odd Dou Di experts into his cave to rest for a while. With Xiao Yan in front, Tian Ying was naturally much more polite to these people. Soon, the group left, leaving only Xiao Yan and Leng Bingshuang and the other two on the mountain peak.
The other two were naturally Xiao Yi Xian and Cai'er.
Since Cai'er started following Xiao Yi Xian, although she rarely speaks, her every move follows Xiao Yi Xian's thoughts. In just a few months, the two of them have raised their tacit understanding to an extremely frightening level.
At this moment, Cai'er could naturally sense the strange atmosphere between Xiao Yi Xian and Leng Bingshuang. Her expression immediately darkened, and she stared at Leng Bingshuang with her beautiful colorful eyes. A sense of hostility surged in the depths of her eyes, and at the same time, the powerful Origin Qi in her body began to circulate.
Just as Cai'er was about to lash out, Xiao Yan suddenly made a move and grabbed Cai'er's wrist. The latter immediately came to her senses and looked at Xiao Yan with respect, her beautiful eyes filled with reverence.
"Master..."
Lowering her head, Cai'er called out timidly.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan frowned and nodded, then whispered:
" Cai'er, your current cultivation level is no weaker than mine, but your temperament is still shallow. I can't teach you much. I can only tell you that people live for themselves. Before doing anything, you must think clearly about the purpose of doing it, why you are doing it. People can't always be immersed in the past. You have a long road ahead of you. I absolutely do not want you to continue to be so depressed, and your brother would never want you to become like this."
"Elder brother..."
Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, a bright light flashed in Cai'er's beautiful eyes, and a familiar figure appeared in her mind. Although he had passed away, her brother would always exist in her heart and would always be with her.
After a long while, a faint mist suddenly welled up in Cai'er's lifeless eyes. She then said goodbye to Xiao Yan and left on her own. Xiao Yan watched Cai'er's departing figure for a moment before he came back to his senses and looked at the two people in front of him with a complicated expression.
Cai'er's matter is now barely resolved, but the situation between these two women is really difficult to handle.
"Well..."
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had put out someone else's fire, but he couldn't quell the trouble he had caused!
At this moment, the two women stared at each other with their bright, beautiful eyes, an unspoken confrontation that made the atmosphere in the air increasingly tense.
This was a war without gunpowder, calm and uneventful, yet it was like a raging storm sweeping away Wind Sweeps Away the Remaining Clouds, causing Xiao Yan to sigh bitterly in his heart.
"Well..."
Sighing repeatedly in his heart, Xiao Yan finally mustered up his courage after a long while and stepped between the two, blocking their view.
However, just when Xiao Yan thought this would end the war, the two who had been calm suddenly raised their hands like ghosts, as if they had planned it beforehand, and before Xiao Yan's horrified eyes...
"Smack!"
With a slap, the crisp, loud sound echoed across the mountain peak. Xiao Yan's face instantly contorted, and his wide eyes still held an expression of disbelief.
The unexpected attack startled Xiao Yan, leaving him stunned for a long time before he could recover.
He never imagined that these two women would attack him simultaneously in such a bizarre manner, and that their speed and ruthlessness were as if they had rehearsed it countless times beforehand.
It has to be said, the unspoken understanding between women is truly bizarrely terrifying!
After that, the two women fell silent again, exchanged a glance, and then prepared to leave.
At that very moment, a figure flew towards them at an extremely fast speed from the distant mountains, and the gazes of the three people on the mountain peak were simultaneously drawn to it.
A few minutes later, the figure appeared in front of Xiao Yan and his companions.
The person who came was a middle-aged man, whose cultivation was in the middle stage of the Seven-Star Dou Emperor. He was wearing a yellow robe, and on a special badge on his chest was engraved with the word "Valley", which was also the symbol of the Lost Valley of Qinhuang.
These people were from Qinhuang Lost Valley.
Upon recognizing the newcomer, a murderous intent flashed across Leng Bingshuang's pretty face. However, Xiao Yan stopped Leng Bingshuang from making a move. Although her killing intent remained, she inexplicably retreated.
Although she felt immense hatred for the man who had taken her body, she ultimately couldn't bring herself to do it. The killing intent in her heart would inexplicably dissipate as soon as it arose. In fact, when facing Xiao Yan, she couldn't even control the Origin Qi within her body.
As for Xiao Yi Xian standing to the side, she was unaware of the newcomer's identity, so naturally she had no reason to feel hostility. Moreover, with her current cultivation level, even if she had hostility, she wouldn't be able to make a move.
As for the newcomer, it seemed as if he had a pre-existing goal. He wasn't coming for Leng Bingshuang, the master of the Xilin Mountain Range, but rather for the black-robed youth at the forefront of the three.
Standing a hundred feet away from the three of them in the void, the man in yellow robes didn't say any more words. Instead, he shot a jade slip at Xiao Yan from afar. The moment he confirmed that the jade slip had landed in Xiao Yan's hand, he turned and fled without hesitation.
"Die!"
However, just as the man in the yellow robe turned around, Leng Bingshuang behind Xiao Yan suddenly made a move, striking out with a palm from a distance, carrying the suppressed anger in her heart, instantly killing the man in the yellow robe.
When Xiao Yan saw this scene, he couldn't help but swallow hard, a chill running down his spine.
