In the deep tunnel, the footsteps of the four people paused as Xiao Yan's words were emitted.
Tian Ying involuntarily raised his eyebrows when he heard Xiao Yan's words. He felt a little surprised in his heart. He originally thought that Xiao Yan would consider these three requests for a long time. However, he did not expect that Xiao Yan had already decided in such a short period of time.
Tian Ying mused for a moment before he frowned slightly. He lifted his eyes to look at Xiao Yan and asked.
"Mister Xiao Yan, are you sure you don't want to reconsider?"
Xiao Yan's face revealed a slight smile when he heard this. He nodded slightly before his eyes landed on Tian Ying's body. His pitch-black pupils were like a deep pool with a glint flickering deep within them. After which, Xiao Yan smiled and asked Tian Ying instead.
"Haha, Brother Tian Ying, you have yet to listen to me. Why are you advising me to reconsider first?"
"Uh, haha, this is only my personal guess. Mister Xiao Yan, please do not doubt me."
The expression on Tian Ying's face immediately hardened when he heard Xiao Yan's words. He swiftly cupped his hands together towards Xiao Yan and laughed.
From the previous scene, Tian Ying could already tell that the relationship between Xiao Yan and his little grandaunt was not ordinary. After all, if it was someone else who dared to hug her body, that person would definitely be torn to pieces by her. Why would she turn around and flee with a flushed face?
A different thought involuntarily rose in Tian Ying's heart as he looked at Xiao Yan in front of him. If his little miss had not only taken a fancy to Xiao Yan's future potential but had also taken a fancy to him as a person, the identity of this black-robed young man in front of him would likely be extraordinary in the future. Hence, if he could build a good relationship with him now, perhaps he would be able to speak with him when they met in the future.
Of course, Xiao Yan was naturally unaware of Tian Ying's thoughts at this moment. When he heard the latter's words, Xiao Yan smiled faintly and waved his hand gently, indicating that he did not mind. Soon after, he opened his mouth and laughed.
"Haha, actually, I've already explained this matter to the three of you three months ago."
The moment Xiao Yan's words left his mouth, Sky Eagle could not help but frown. He exchanged glances with Yan Shi and Yan Shi and immediately understood.
"Mr. Xiao Yan, you mean …"
"I hope that the three of you can make way for me to pass through the Xilin Mountain Range."
Tian Ying's trio knit their brows tightly in the face of this. Min Sheng revealed a troubled expression. The three of them exchanged glances and quietly communicated with each other. After which, they looked at Xiao Yan.
When he saw the expression on Tian Ying's face, Xiao Yan could not help but have a bad premonition in his heart. The expression on his face also changed slightly.
"Mr. Xiao Yan, it is not that the three of us are unwilling to make way for you. However, the Xilin Mountain Range has its own rules. No one is allowed to step into the hinterland of the Xilin Mountain Range. This rule is something that even the three of us cannot break."
Xiao Yan's originally frowning brows became even more twisted after Tian Ying's words sounded. Only then did he recall that Gu You had once told him three months ago that there was likely a Dou Di class expert in the hinterland of the Xilin Mountain Range.
Although Gu You did not say it clearly back then, Xiao Yan was certain that there was definitely an expert above the Dou Di class in the hinterland of the Xilin Mountain Range. Otherwise, the so-called rules of this place would not restrict the three of them.
While Xiao Yan was thinking of this in his heart, Tian Ying once again opened his mouth to Xiao Yan. The words from his mouth caused Xiao Yan to feel helpless.
"Moreover, mister Xiao Yan should have already discovered just how frightening the cold wind is after the collapse of the eastern wall. That thing is something that even the three of us brothers do not dare to guarantee that we will be able to enter the hinterland of the mountain range. Of course, it is not that we do not believe in your strength. However, that cold wind is not something that an ordinary thing can compare with. Mister Xiao Yan must believe in this point."
Xiao Yan did not doubt Tian Ying's words. After all, the frightening cold wind from three months ago was just like yesterday when he thought about it now. It was still fresh in his memory.
Xiao Yan did not doubt that even if he used all his strength, it was likely that he would not be able to reach the middle of the hinterland of the Xilin Mountain Range, much less pass through it.
Xiao Yan involuntarily knitted his brows tightly when he thought of this. He sighed helplessly in his heart. If he was unable to pass through the Xilin Mountain Range, wouldn't he be unable to reach the Western Wastelands Region?
Tian Ying and Yan Shi exchanged glances when they saw the worried expression on Xiao Yan's face. Their gazes shifted before they once again opened their mouths to speak to Xiao Yan.
"Mister Xiao Yan, actually, it is not that there is no way to solve this matter …"
Before the words from Tian Ying's mouth sounded, the expression on Xiao Yan's face suddenly became one of joy. This kind of joy after being disappointed was something that one would find hard to come by.
"May I know if brother Tian Ying has any ideas? If this matter is successful, Xiao Yan will definitely come and thank the three of you when I return in the future! "
Xiao Yan's face was filled with joy as he spoke in a serious voice with a smile as he ferociously cupped his hands together towards the three people in front of him.
"Haha, there is no need for mister Xiao Yan to do this. We are merely following young miss's wishes. Of course, I'm afraid that we are unable to contribute much in this matter."
Tian Ying also understood in his heart when he saw Xiao Yan actually reveal such an expression. This matter was likely quite important to Xiao Yan. Otherwise, it would not cause this usually calm black-robed, young man in front of him to reveal such an expression.
Xiao Yan involuntarily frowned when he heard Tian Ying's words. The three of them were the only experts in the depths of the Xilin Mountain Range. If this matter was not related to them, who else could it be?
"Hiss …"
In the next instant, Xiao Yan suddenly inhaled a breath of cool air. There was a startled expression on his face. Immediately, he seemed to have thought of something in his heart. A pair of pitch-black eyes were instantly lifted. Both of his eyes were widened as he stared at Tian Ying in front of him. His face was filled with surprise.
Tian Ying immediately nodded and smiled when he saw this. In his heart, he knew that Xiao Yan had already guessed the answer. Hence, he did not beat around the bush and directly said,
"That's right. This method is my young miss."
Even though he already knew the answer in his heart, the corner of Xiao Yan's mouth still involuntarily twitched when he heard Tian Ying personally say it.
He originally thought that it would be fine as long as he brought this little girl here and the two of them would no longer have anything to do with each other. However, who would have thought that the most troublesome matter for him would ultimately still have to rely on this little girl.
Xiao Yan felt helpless in his heart when he thought of this. His face involuntarily revealed an expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He really did not know whether he was lucky or unlucky to have met this little girl.
Xiao Yan smiled helplessly. His heart immediately felt relieved. No matter how one put it, this matter could finally come to an end.
Xiao Yan smiled in his heart. He lifted his eyes and looked towards the end of the tunnel. His feet moved and he once again walked forward. Behind him, Tian Ying and the other two exchanged glances with each other. A glint flashed across each of their eyes. Their bodies moved and followed behind.
