Battle Through the Heavens: I Am the Righteous Path

Chapter 146 Trustworthy
At night, Xiao Yan, Qing Lin and the cloaked woman sat around the fire, eating the dry food that Xiao Lirang brought with her before leaving.

Xiao Yan and Qing Lin were chatting eagerly. Xiao Yan was telling Qing Lin about his experiences during his travels, while Qing Lin was telling Xiao Yan about his daily life in the Motie Mercenary Group.

As a stranger, the cloaked woman naturally couldn't get in the conversation and sat quietly in the corner, her eyebrows knitted together under the cloak.

What she was thinking about now was what Yan Ci, the leader of the Yan Snake Tribe, said before leaving.

As far as she knew, among the leaders of the eight major tribes, the Flame Thorns were relatively repellent to humans. Although they were not ready to talk about it before they met, they were also a type of snake people with a very bad attitude towards humans.

However, even so, Yan Ci's words still gave Xiao Ling an extremely satisfying affirmation.

Those words were definitely not just for the occasion.

What's more, facing these three of them, there is no need for Yansheng to talk about the situation.

In other words, those words were his true inner thoughts.

Yan Xi recognized Xiao Ling from the bottom of his heart.

This made the cloaked woman have some self-doubt.

Could it be that I'm really thinking too much?Is it true that the Xiao family’s and Yunlan Sect’s secret dealings have nothing to do with each other?
In this case, it doesn't matter if I tell him my true identity.
The cloaked woman was so hesitant in her heart that she shook her head slightly after a while.

No, it's still not time yet.

At least Xiao Yan is not enough for him to completely trust him now.

The identity of the fiancé of the young master of Yunlan Sect brings too many variables.

At that time, Xiao Yan faced the powerful Dou Wang, but his face was not timid at all, which made the cloaked woman secretly admire him.

Obviously there is not much difference in strength between the two, but their personalities are so different. At least the cloaked woman does not have the courage to stand in front of the powerful Dou Wang like Xiao Yan.

However, despite admiration, this is only in terms of character and does not prove that Xiao Yan is innocent.

Yan Ci praised Xiao Ling, but in the end, Xiao Ling and Xiao Yan are two people after all. Even if Xiao Ling is really okay, Xiao Yan may not be okay.

She had read too many examples of estrangement within the same family in those history books.

At least now, Xiao Yan is not enough to make her reveal her identity.

Just as the cloaked woman was thinking this, Qing Lin, who was chatting with Xiao Yan, suddenly turned up her little nose, and her porcelain doll-like little face instantly became wary, and she looked at Xiao Yan and whispered softly.

"Master Xiao Yan! There are humans!"

"Um?!"

Xiao Yan and the woman in the cloak were both startled, and then Qinglin frowned, leaned down slightly, and put his ears to the ground, and raised his head again after a moment.

"It's not coming towards us, it's probably just passing by us."

"." Xiao Yan lowered his eyebrows. After a moment, he took out the map and handed it to Qing Lin, asking: "Qing Lin, look which direction they went?"

"Let me see"

Qing Lin took the map, glanced back and forth on the map, and finally pointed at a small tribe.

"Master Xiao Yan, according to the direction they are heading, if they don't change their route midway, they should be here."

Xiao Yan came over and looked at the position pointed by Qing Lin on the map. The woman in the cloak also came over, her brows furrowed in an instant. "This is the Black Snake Tribe?!"

Hearing the cloaked woman's exclamation, Xiao Yan frowned slightly and looked sideways at her.

"From your tone, it sounds like you are familiar with these tribes?"

"Well, I have collected relevant information before coming here." The cloaked woman nodded, looked at Xiao Yan and replied: "There are eight tribes in the Snake Tribe, and the leaders of each tribe are at the level of Dou Wang. Then we will The one I met was Yan Xi, the leader of the Flame Snake Tribe.”

"I just heard your voice sound like you were nervous?"

Xiao Yan asked, and the cloaked woman answered slowly.

"According to what is written in the information, although the attitude of the flame thorns you will encounter is not so kind to humans, they are still more rational than emotional." The woman in the cloak said, her beauty under the cloak tightly twisted together, "But Mo Mobas, the leader of the snake tribe, is different. He hates human beings extremely much. As long as humans appear in his field of vision, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to leave alive. If the leader of the tribe we would meet was not the Flame Thorn but the Mobas, If it’s Bass, then we can’t be let off so easily.”

After listening to the cloaked woman's words, Xiao Yan lowered his head and began to think.

He understood why the cloaked woman felt nervous.

If the slave traders on the human side are an unstable factor that affects the peaceful coexistence between humans and the snake people, then Mobas, the leader of the Black Snake Tribe, is the unstable factor that affects the peaceful coexistence between humans and the snake people.

In other words, if humans and snake people want to coexist peacefully, the Black Snake Tribe is the one that cannot be violated.

Otherwise, they, who already hate humans so much, will have an even worse attitude towards humans and become a huge obstacle to the Snake Tribe's efforts to prevent the two races from shaking hands and making peace!

At this moment, Xiao Yan suddenly remembered.

The reason why Xiao Ling was called over by the snake people was because some tribes of the snake people were attacked by unknown people.

If Qing Lin heard what he just heard, those people passing by were the instigators of the attack on the snake tribe.
"Let's go!" Xiao Yan no longer hesitated, stood up and extinguished the flames with sand, and said to Qinglin and the cloaked woman: "Let's follow them to confirm what their purpose is. We can't let things continue to ferment!"

"Ok!"

Qinglin nodded heavily. The reason she was still staying in the Tagor Desert was because she didn't want the tragedy of her father and mother to happen again.

Xiao Ling had finally managed the relationship between the two clans to such an extent, how could she tolerate it being destroyed?

The woman in the cloak also stood up, looking at Xiao Yan with a serious face with complicated eyes under the cloak.

Originally, she wanted to ask to follow her, but she didn't expect that Xiao Yan was the first to suggest it.

What she saw on Xiao Yan's face was only sincere concern for the future of mankind and the snake people, without any hypocrisy.

Xiao Yan is really afraid that the relationship between the snake people and humans will be destroyed by those unknown people.

At this moment, the cloaked woman gave Xiao Yan a label of trust in her heart.

If a person can really pretend to be this far, then she will admit it even if she is deceived.

(Find an opportunity later to confess your identity to him.)
The cloaked woman said this in her heart.

Xiao Yan should be trustworthy.

Being able to confess my identity to a trustworthy person, I no longer have to be secretive. I can also discuss many things I want to do with Xiao Yan in the future, and I don't have to think hard and worry here alone.

Wait until this encounter is resolved
