Just as Xiao Yan was filled with anticipation, Luo Jin and the others finally arrived Qingyang City.
Besides Luo Jin and Leng Bingshuang, the group also included the Heaven-Reaching Giant Ape and the One-Horned Whale Serpent. The others remained in the Xilin Mountain Range to guard against any unforeseen events.
The sudden appearance of three Origin Return Realm experts and one Nine-Star Dou Di in the sky above Qingyang City naturally attracted the attention of many people in the city. As the number one power in Qingyang City, the Liu Clan naturally became extremely vigilant the moment they appeared.
However, when Xiao Yan sensed these familiar auras, a smile finally appeared on his slightly pale face, and Bai Hua, who was standing next to him, felt his tension dissipate.
The people in the hall slowly rose, led by Xiao Yan, and walked out of the hall. Looking up at the group in the sky, Xiao Yan chuckled and said:
"Come down. If you stay in the sky like this, everyone in the city will probably run away."
Having endured several major battles, Qingyang City was already unable to withstand such an impact. Once a powerful figure arrived, the only thing the people in the city could think of was to quickly take all their belongings and leave to seek refuge. At this moment, the sudden appearance of Leng Bingshuang and her group had already frightened many people in the city.
Hearing Xiao Yan's words, the people in the sky were somewhat confused, but seeing the tense expressions on the faces of the crowd in the city, they quickly descended and landed in the Liu Clan's mansion. When the people in the city realized that no major battle had taken place between the two sides, their tense mood gradually relaxed.
As soon as they met, Leng Bingshuang immediately noticed Xiao Yan 'Xiao Yan condition. Ignoring his objections, she stepped forward to examine him and only felt relieved after confirming that he was alright.
However, the slightly ambiguous scene between the two people made the expressions on the faces of those around them somewhat unnatural, especially Zhou Tai, whose eyes immediately showed shock when his gaze swept over the four people in front of him.
He discovered that among these people, apart from a young-looking man in black robes, everyone else was a powerful expert at the Origin Transformation Realm. In particular, the alluring woman who was currently examining Xiao Yan's physical condition had an extremely powerful aura, having already reached the Peak Late Origin Transformation Realm, and was probably only one step away from the Origin Return Realm.
As for Luo Jin, he had known the latter for many years, so there was no need to elaborate. As for Luo Jin's cultivation level, Zhou Tai was not particularly surprised.
In addition, there was that bald, burly man. Not only was his cultivation formidable, but he could also sense a faint pressure emanating from him. That pressure was similar to the domineering aura he possessed from birth, but it was even more domineering and fierce, making even him feel wary.
Although that Nine-Star Dou Di kid looks like he has only average cultivation, since he can be with these people, he is definitely not a simple person.
However, what surprised Zhou Tai the most was that this group of people were all Xiao Yan's friends, and the relationship between the woman in front of him and Xiao Yan was self-evident.
"This kid, why does he keep running into guys with cultivation levels like this..."
Even with Zhou Tai's composure, his lips twitched slightly at this moment. As for the other members of the Liu Clan around him, their feelings were even more indescribable.
Since they were acquaintances, there was no need for excessive formalities. However, before Xiao Yan could inquire about Little Xiao Yan Xiao Yi Xian, Leng Bingshuang Leng Bingshuang handed him a jade slip and informed him that Xiao Yan Xiao Yi Xian had left alone after arriving in the Southern Region with them.
"What! How could you let her go alone? The Southern Region is a complex place, and with her current cultivation level, what if something happens to her..."
"That's why she chose to leave; she didn't want to be a burden to you!"
Before Xiao Yan could finish his questioning words, Leng Bingshuang interrupted him, and Xiao Yan's expression froze. No wonder, no wonder Xiao Yi Xian had been talking less lately, and even the way she looked at him seemed uncomfortable. So that was the reason.
At that moment, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly froze. Everyone held their breath, afraid to make any rash moves, lest any external factors lead to unpredictable consequences.
"Then why didn't you stop her?"
After a long silence, Xiao Yan opened his mouth and spoke weakly.
"If someone truly wants to leave, you absolutely cannot stop them."
After a slight pause, Leng Bingshuang stared at Xiao Yan, each word she uttered feeling like a nail driven into his chest, making his breathing even more rapid.
Where did she go?
"Have no idea."
Which direction?
"..."
Both of them kept their heads down, exchanging questions and answers, but Leng Bingshuang fell silent. She didn't know whether she should speak or not, whether speaking would be right or wrong, whether it would harm or save Xiao Yi Xian Xiao Yi Xian, and what about herself?
Leng Bingshuang doesn't know.
Which direction did she go?
Xiao Yan finally raised his head, his eyes fixed on Leng Bingshuang. A suppressed emotion was surging deep within his eyes. When she met his gaze, she couldn't help but recall the way Xiao Yan had looked at her before, and it seemed to be exactly the same.
That look left her no room for argument.
"South..."
Her red lips parted slightly, and her Leng Bingshuang eyes stung as she uttered a single word. However, the next moment, the floor of the hall suddenly exploded, and the roof was instantly destroyed by a terrifying force. Xiao Yan's body shot into the sky like an arrow, hurtling straight towards the direction from which Luo Jin and the others had come.
" Xiao Yan, you have now become a true powerhouse, and you have people like Leng Bingshuang who are willing to devote themselves to you. My existence has become a burden to you. If I stay any longer, I'm afraid I will only cause you trouble. So, farewell. I want to go and train on my own. If possible, I hope that next time we meet, I can stand before you as before..."
Hearing the familiar voice of Xiao Yi Xian echoing in his mind, Xiao Yan clenched his hands tightly, his body jolted, and his forward momentum increased significantly.
" Xiao Yi Xian, wait for me, I will definitely bring you back!"
Meanwhile, in a mountain forest somewhere in the Southern Region, Xiao Yi Xian was walking slowly southwards with a blank expression.
She had heard that there was a teleportation array in the Southern Region that could lead to the Central Region. Through that array, she could reach the Central Region. She believed that only in the Central Region could she improve her cultivation in the shortest amount of time. This was the only way for her to become stronger and help Xiao Yan.
However, just as Xiao Yi Xian arrived in this mountain forest, another person who was there also happened to discover her presence.
