As the words from the middle-aged man's mouth fell, Zhao Xian also hurriedly came back to his senses. At the same time that he felt astonished in his heart, his body that was kneeling in the air hurriedly climbed up in a sorry state. He clenched his teeth and forcefully endured the piercing pain that came from all over his body. He hurriedly turned around and quickly fled towards the distant horizon without even looking back.
Only when Zhao Xian had completely disappeared from the horizon did the middle-aged man withdraw his gaze and once again looked at Murong Qianqian.
At that moment, the latter was also looking at him with a gloomy face. Her gaze seemed to be blaming the middle-aged man for letting Zhao Xian go.
"Haha, little girl, you're still angry?"
The middle-aged man faintly smiled and a hint of pampering expression was revealed within his eyes.
"I really don't understand. Why did you let him go? If you didn't appear in time, Qianqian's life would have been gone."
Seeing that the middle-aged man was actually still able to smile at a time like this, Murong Qianqian's pretty face instantly revealed a pitiful appearance as if she had been wronged. She pouted her mouth and said with tears in her eyes.
"Haha, you little girl. You ran out of the family by yourself and now you've caused such a big trouble. Why are you blaming me instead? Which of the injuries that you received wasn't caused by yourself? If you had obediently stayed in the family, who would have been able to hurt you? "
The middle-aged man's words immediately made Murong Qianqian a bit speechless. Only after a while did she pouted her little mouth again, snorted with her nose raised, and said:
"Even if I'm in the family, my father and brother can still bully me."
Hearing that, the middle-aged man was at a loss. Soon after, he shook his head with a face that didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He said again: "You little girl, why don't you know what's good for you? Don't they control you because they hope that you can cause less trouble outside in the future? Look at you right now, running around with others and causing trouble for others."
After the words from the middle-aged man's mouth fell, Murong Qianqian's pretty face was slightly angry. Just as she was about to speak again, the former immediately spoke again and subdued the young girl in front of him.
"In addition, it's not just here. This time, you left the clan without permission. Your father and brother are already extremely anxious. Before they called me out to get you, they were already furious. If you still refuse to be honest, you should know your father's and brother's character in your heart."
After he finished speaking, the middle-aged man didn't say anything else. The young girl's expression that had just recovered was once again filled with fear because of the middle-aged man's words.
The middle-aged man helplessly shook his head and ignored the young lady. Instead, he turned his gaze toward Xiao Yan, who was currently lying flat in the air with his eyes tightly shut. A glint swiftly flashed across his eyes. The corner of the middle-aged man's mouth slowly revealed a smile as he said,
"You don't have to continue pretending in front of me. What I fed you earlier was a Tier 4 medicinal pill. Even if your injuries aren't light, you should wake up now."
His indifferent voice carried a sense of confidence that he was determined to succeed. At the same time, the young girl's gaze also quickly landed on Xiao Yan because of the middle-aged man's words.
Immediately, a look of worry emerged in her watery eyes. Only when she clearly heard the middle-aged man's words did her beautiful eyes flash with a hint of surprise.
"Cough cough."
Even though the injuries in his body had already recovered, Xiao Yan couldn't help but cough a few times when he heard the middle-aged man's words. At the same time, Xiao Yan also felt a wave of shock in his heart. He didn't expect that the medicinal pill that the middle-aged man fed him would actually be a Tier 4 medicinal pill.
"Junior Xiao Yan, thank senior for saving my life. Junior apologizes to senior for the matter just now."
Standing up, Xiao Yan discovered that with the power of the Tier 4 medicinal pill, he could already stand alone in the air. However, he still cupped his hands towards the middle-aged man with a respectful attitude to express his gratitude. At the same time, it could also be considered an apology for eavesdropping.
Seeing Xiao Yan's seemingly unharmed appearance, the middle-aged man couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Although he gave Xiao Yan a Tier 4 medicinal pill, the speed of Xiao Yan's recovery somewhat exceeded his expectations.
Looking deeply at Xiao Yan, the middle-aged man smiled faintly and said in a calm tone, "It's fine.
According to the news from Leng Bing Shuang, Qianqian has been protected by you all the way here. Being able to bring her here is already enough. As for the medicinal pill, just treat it as a thank you. "
Hearing this, Xiao Yan once again cupped his hands respectfully towards the middle-aged man.
Although the middle-aged man said there was no need to be polite, Xiao Yan also understood in his heart that no matter what, the middle-aged man was still a senior in front of Xiao Yan. Since he was a senior and had saved his life, Xiao Yan should be respectful towards him.
Seeing Xiao Yan's actions, a hint of surprise involuntarily flashed across the middle-aged man's eyes. His eyes faintly flickered. Soon after, the middle-aged man lightly nodded and spoke again.
"Since the person has been sent here and the danger has been removed, it's time for us to leave."
At the same time his words sounded, the middle-aged man looked towards Murong Qianqian. Hearing this, the expression on the latter's pretty face changed once again. Her pair of pretty eyes immediately looked towards Xiao Yan with an expression of reluctance. Then, she hurriedly opened her mouth to stop the middle-aged man.
"Fourth Uncle, Xiao Yan's injuries have yet to recover. If we leave now, what if that Zhao Xian returns and kills his way back? Wouldn't Xiao Yan be in danger?!"
"You don't need to worry about this. His situation is much better than what you and I had imagined. Moreover, with me stepping forward, if that fellow dares to return, I will definitely act and kill him. As for you, girl, if you don't want to anger your father, it's best that you return with me now. Now, immediately, immediately!"
The middle-aged man's face was solemn as he stared at Murong Qianqian. The expression on his face was no longer warm. This involuntarily caused the young girl to feel slightly fearful in her heart.
After his words sounded, the middle-aged man once again looked towards Xiao Yan. He knew that at this kind of time, if he wanted Murong Qianqian to obediently return with him, his words would not have much of an effect. On the contrary, it was Xiao Yan who might be able to make the young girl listen to him.
"Uh."
Seeing the gaze that the middle-aged man shot over, Xiao Yan could not help but be slightly stunned. Immediately, he hurriedly recovered. The instant his eyes met with the former's, he saw the middle-aged man secretly nodding his head towards him. His lips moved slightly. From the looks of it, he seemed to be saying thanks.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan also nodded his head in an undetectable manner. Immediately, he looked towards the young girl, forcefully propped up his powerless body, smiled slightly and said, "Hehe, hehe.
Girl, let's go back. I promised Leng Bing Shuang that I would send you back safely. Now, since you have already met the elder, you can be considered to have arrived. This is all that I can do for you. Next, I should go and do some things that I want to do. "
The young girl stared at Xiao Yan's face that was filled with smiles. The rosy color that was forcefully squeezed out indicated that Xiao Yan seemed to be really fine. It was only at this moment that Murong Qianqian withdrew her gaze with a pale face. Her eyebrows were tightly knitted together and a sorrowful expression was revealed between her eyebrows. This caused the young girl, who was originally injured, to appear even more lovely and moving.
"Alright, let's go. You also heard it. He still has his own matters to attend to. You …"
The middle-aged man slowly opened his mouth. However, this time, without waiting for him to speak, the young girl suddenly turned her gaze towards him. A pair of beautiful eyes that were filled with water vapor suddenly revealed a fierce glint that seemed to want to devour people at the same time.
"Uh."
Seeing this scene, the words that the middle-aged man originally wanted to spit out from his mouth were forcefully swallowed back. Soon after, he awkwardly smiled and resentfully withdrew his gaze. Very obviously, the real reason why Xiao Yan would say those words had already been guessed by this girl.
Regarding this, Xiao Yan could not help but shake his head and sigh in his heart. Soon after, the middle-aged man once again pulled Murong Qianqian up. This time, the middle-aged man's gaze was leveled at Xiao Yan for the first time. His face that had always had an indifferent expression actually revealed an amiable smile towards Xiao Yan. If this smile was at any other time, it was likely that even the people of the same clan would not be able to see it. However, it was unknown how Xiao Yan would feel if he were to know about this.
When the middle-aged man brought Murong Qianqian and turned around, the young girl's gaze never left Xiao Yan from start to finish.
"Sigh."
Seeing that the middle-aged man was about to leave with Murong Qianqian, Xiao Yan involuntarily let out a long sigh for some unknown reason.
Xiao Yan naturally did not have any feelings for Murong Qianqian. He only purely treated Murong Qianqian as a younger sister.
Although the time that the two of them had spent together was short, Murong Qianqian's lively character had allowed Xiao Yan's boring training path to gain more fun. However, now that he personally saw that the two of them were about to separate, Xiao Yan's heart was more or less somewhat reluctant.
After this separation, he did not know if he would have the chance to meet again in the future. Just from the fact that this middle-aged man was Murong Qianqian's fourth uncle, the clan that she belonged to was likely not ordinary. At the very least, there would be quite a number of Dou Di.
Moreover, from the fact that Leng Bingshuang was related to them, it was likely that there was an expert at the Origin Transformation stage or above in her clan. Just this point alone was sufficient for the current Xiao Yan to look up to them.
Of course, looking up was just looking up. However, Xiao Yan firmly believed that he might be able to reach such a high level in the future. With Gu You's help, once Xiao Yan gathered the Flame Art Qi Method and swallowed more Heavenly Flames, forget about the Origin Transformation stage, it was likely that he would also be able to reach an even higher level!
"Xiao Yan, thank you."
However, at this moment, the warm voice of the middle-aged man was once again transmitted over.
Xiao Yan was initially startled when he heard this. He immediately focused his eyes and looked over. A short distance away, the middle-aged man was holding Murong Qianqian's hand. At the same time, he wore a smile as he looked at Xiao Yan from afar. The middle-aged man noticed the gaze that Xiao Yan had shot over. He nodded to Xiao Yan and immediately continued speaking.
"Remember my name, Murong Hao. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can come to the Blue Eagle City of the Western Wastelands to look for me. I will definitely not be stingy in helping you if it is within my ability!"
