Inside the inn, the sudden voice caused Lu An and Han Ya to be stunned.
Lu An turned his head and looked at the man standing to the side. This man did not look too old, less than thirty years old. Although his figure was considered tall compared to ordinary people, he looked very ordinary compared to the people here.
What made Lu An even more concerned was his clothes. He was wearing clothes made of high-quality silk. This kind of silk was rare even outside, let alone in the Heavenly Realm.
However, if this person knew Han Ya, then it was very normal.
Sure enough, when Han Ya saw this person, she was startled at first, then a rare trace of happiness appeared on her face. She stood up and said to the man, "Little Liang, why are you here?"
"I just came back from doing something outside the border. I just entered this inn to rest, and I just happened to see you!" The man seemed even happier and said excitedly, "I thought I was mistaken, but I didn't expect it to really be you!"
Lu An saw that the two of them were familiar with each other and felt relieved. At this moment, Han Ya said to the man, "Little Liang, let me introduce you to my junior brother, Lu An!"
Lu An was startled when he heard this. He quickly stood up and cupped his fists towards the man, "Nice to meet you."
"You're actually Little Ya's junior brother? So young?" The man was obviously startled. He never thought that this youth would also come from the Dacheng Heavenly Mountain. However, when he saw Lu An's smile, he realized that he was being rude. He quickly cupped his hands and said, "I'm Mao Xiaoyi, please advise me!"
Seeing this, Han Ya smiled and said to Lu An, "Mao Xiaoyi is a playmate I've known since I was young. My family and his family are family friends, and we support each other in business. Without any one of them, the other will suffer a great loss. "
"So that's how it is." Lu An smiled and said politely, "Brother Mao, please take a seat!"
"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony!" Mao Xiaoyi was also very cheerful. He laughed loudly and sat down with the two of them. This made him look very much like a nomad.
"Although we've known each other since we were young, that was my history of blood and tears since I was young!" Mao Xiaoyi looked at Lu An and complained as if she was traumatized, "Han Ya has been gifted since she was young. She bullied me every day, and I couldn't beat her! Can you imagine me being chased and beaten by a girl younger than me every day in front of others? "
"That's because you're always provoking me!" Han Ya pretended to be angry and said with a smile, "You've been causing trouble everywhere since you were young. Not to mention me, even Uncle Mao taught you a lesson every day!"
"Hehe, isn't it better to be steady now?" Mao Xiaoyi laughed mischievously, not caring at all.
At this moment, Han Ya suddenly thought of something. Her expression suddenly froze as she hurriedly asked, "Little Yi, I just heard someone say that something has happened in Heavenly Realm recently. Is my family alright?"
Mao Xiaoyi looked at the nervous Han Ya and shook her head, saying, "Don't worry, it's fine. The chaos in Heavenly Realm only started in the last two weeks. Only Southern Border City was affected. None of the families in Middle Border City were affected. "
Hearing Mao Xiaoyi's words, Han Ya immediately let out a sigh of relief. Her tense emotions also relaxed as she said, "That's good."
"Little Ya, you're going home for the New Year, right?" Mao Xiaoyi looked at Han Ya and said seriously, "There's only a week left before the New Year. Your family has been missing you. Every time I see them, I can't help but talk about you."
Han Ya lowered her head slightly. Her black hair covered half of her cheeks, making her look beautiful and heartbreaking.
"What's wrong?" Mao Xiaoyi was stunned and looked at Han Ya in confusion. He knew Han Ya's character too well. Han Ya had never acted like this before!
Han Ya's body trembled slightly. She quickly looked up at Mao Xiaoyi and said with a smile, "Nothing. I'm a little tired from the journey and want to rest. Since we've met here, let's go home together! "
"That's what I think too!" Mao Xiaoyi smiled and said happily, "My team is just outside. They also need to rest. Let's go back to Middle Border City together tomorrow morning!"
"Okay," Han Ya said with a smile.

The next day, on the official road.
Lu An and Han Ya's carriage was taken care of by the team's people. The two of them entered Mao Buyi's luxurious carriage. This carriage was pulled by three horses and was three times more spacious than Lu An's carriage. The three of them sat in the big carriage and even felt a little spacious.
"Brother Lu, I can't help but sigh. You're actually a disciple of the Dacheng Heavenly Mountain!" Mao Xiaoyi looked at Lu An, shook his head and said, "You're too young. I can't believe it!"
Lu An smiled and said, "Brother Mao, you're flattering me."
On the side, Han Ya also showed a rare smile and said to Mao Xiaoyi, "If you've seen him fight, you wouldn't think so. You can't imagine how terrifying he is when he's serious. "
"Senior Sister …" Lu An laughed bitterly. Han Ya really knew how to say anything. Moreover, compared to Han Ya, he wasn't as strong as she was.
"Really?" Mao Xiaoyi was even more shocked. He knew Han Ya's character. It was rare to hear her praise someone, but he did not expect her to give this young man such a high evaluation!
"Why don't you try fighting with him?" Han Ya said with a smile.
"Forget it. I haven't even entered the school. Wouldn't it be suicide to fight with a disciple of Mount Dacheng?" Mao Xiaoyi did not fall for Han Ya's trick at all. He turned to look at Lu An, rolled his eyes, and asked, "Brother Lu, have you thought about where to go after leaving Mount Dacheng? My family is short of people! "
"Mao Xiaoyi!"
On the side, Han Ya's cold voice sounded, which made Mao Xiaoyi shudder! She quickly turned to look at Han Ya and smiled apologetically. "I know he's yours. I'm just asking, just asking …"
Han Ya rolled her eyes at Mao Xiaoyi, then lowered her head and thought for a moment. She frowned and asked, "How's Zhongjing City recently? Is my family okay?"
Hearing Han Ya's question, the cynical Mao Xiaoyi became serious and said seriously, "During the year you were away, a lot of big things happened in Zhongjing City!"
Han Ya was shocked and asked, "What happened?"
"A new force appeared in the city this year. It's called the Flying Dagger School." Mao Xiaoyi frowned and said, "This force appeared out of nowhere and was very powerful. There were no less than 20 Taoist Masters. And these Taoist Masters are all people I've never heard of before. "
"These people will definitely take away the interests of some families. But surprisingly, many families did not take action against the Flying Dagger School. Instead, they joined forces with the Flying Dagger School, making it more and more powerful. Now, the Flying Dagger School can no longer be described as a first-class force. It's one of the best! "
Han Ya frowned and asked, "Will the City Lord's Mansion allow it to expand like this?"
"That's the problem!" Mao Xiaoyi said in a low voice, "Even the City Lord's Mansion ignored it, as if they did not see the development of the Flying Dagger School at all. But now, the Flying Dagger School's strength is enough to compete with the City Lord's Mansion, but there is no conflict between the two! "
Han Ya frowned when she heard that. Anyone could smell that there was a conspiracy in this matter.
"The City Lord's Mansion doesn't care. The Flying Dagger School is very powerful. Now, many families have been forcibly annexed by them!" Mao Xiaoyi frowned and said in a low voice, "According to the momentum of their development, the Flying Dagger School even intends to unify the Middle-border City. At that time, our families will not be able to escape."
Han Ya frowned and looked at Mao Xiaoyi. She said in a low voice, "If they want to annex us, they have to think twice, right? And there are several other families. Do you think they will be willing to be annexed? "
"Yes, but now the only big forces that have not been annexed are our families with Level Three Taoist Masters." Mao Xiaoyi frowned and could not help but sigh. "As far as I know, there are three Level Three Taoist Masters in the Flying Dagger School. If we don't unite to fight against them, we have no chance of winning."
"Three?" Han Ya was surprised and asked in astonishment, "How can there be so many?"
"I don't know." Mao Xiaoyi shook his head and said with a sigh, "We know too little about the Flying Dagger School. Recently, there have been many things at the end of the year. In a month, the triennial City Lord qualification battle will come. I'm afraid the Middle-border City will change."
A month later?
Lu An was shocked and looked at Han Ya in surprise. She had never told him that the qualification battle would be held in a month!
Han Ya was also stunned. She did not expect Mao Xiaoyi to say this. She quickly looked at Lu An and found that Lu An was looking at her with a frown.
She panicked and was about to explain something when she was suddenly interrupted by a loud noise!
Bang!!!
A voice exploded in their ears, followed by a huge tremor in the ground!
