Then, under Yueyao's watchful gaze, they sped off into the mountains.
Standing still, Yueyao's eyes flashed with a white light as she glanced thoughtfully into the depths of the mountains, where Xun'er and the others were.
"Ancient tribes..."
"Lingquan, shut up!"
Xun'er, who was standing next to Xiao Yan, heard Ling Quan's insults towards Xiao Yan and a flash of anger crossed her face.
Most importantly, she was afraid that Xiao Yan would get hurt if he fought Ling Quan because of this.
"The Xiao family has an alliance with my clan; how dare you insult them like this!"
Noticing Xiao Yan's increasingly cold expression, Xun'er scolded Ling Quan.
"Hehe, Miss, please don't be angry. I just accidentally blurted out the truth!" Lingquan smiled and made an apologetic gesture, but it was very perfunctory.
Then Lingquan looked at Xiao Yan and changed the subject.
"However, when we came here, the clan elder instructed that if we spent time seeing Young Master Xiao Yan, we could ask him about the location of the Xiao family's key."
As he spoke, Ling Quan narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of urgency in his voice. "Young Master Xiao Yan, could you please tell me?"
When Xun'er heard Ling Quan's words, her heart was in her throat, afraid that Xiao Yan would give something away. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Xiao Yan say something in confusion.
"key?"
Lingquan frowned as he looked at Xiao Yan's expression, pondered for a moment, and then gave Xiao Yan a complicated look. He didn't explain to Xiao Yan, but instead looked at Xun'er standing to the side.
“Miss, my main purpose for this trip is simply to bring you back to your clan; everything else is secondary.”
Lingquan then took a half step back, cupped his hands towards Xun'er, and said, "Miss, the clan patriarch misses you very much, please!"
Xun'er frowned slightly, gritted her teeth, and was about to take a step when Xiao Yan grabbed her arm and asked in a low voice, "Are you leaving?"
“Brother Xiao Yan, I have been away from the clan for a long time. I have ignored the clan’s urging several times. This time they have specially sent the Black Annihilation Army. I’m afraid I have no choice but to leave. You must remember what I told you before: the news that the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade is in your hands must not be leaked. That thing is involved in too many things.”
"In the future, Brother Xiao Yan will naturally understand the power behind Xun'er. Before you have enough strength, please don't come looking for me."
Xun'er lowered her head, and a barely audible voice urgently entered Xiao Yan's ears, even carrying a hint of pleading.
Xiao Yan's expression was uncertain, and the hand holding Xun'er gradually trembled.
Although he has matured over the years and is no longer the impulsive young man he once was, the girl before him is someone he simply cannot accept losing after his father's disappearance.
"Young Master Xiao Yan, this is our mission, please let go of my hand!"
In front of the two, Lingquan looked at Xiao Yan, who was grabbing Xun'er's arm, with a cold expression on his face and an icy voice.
Upon hearing Ling Quan's words, Xiao Yan abruptly raised his head to look at him, a flicker of anger flashing in his dark eyes. Just as he was about to speak, a soft laugh suddenly came from not far away.
"Hehe, what if you don't release it?"
"who!?"
Everyone was startled when they suddenly heard the voice of an unfamiliar man.
The nine members of the Black Annihilation Army suddenly exuded a chilling aura, and their battle qi surged dramatically as they instantly prepared for battle.
Lingquan's expression also changed. In Canaan Academy, the elders should have already tacitly approved of their entry to pick up people.
Xiao Yan and Xun'er, however, showed a hint of surprise on their faces. They thought to themselves, "Why is Brother Xiao Fan here?"
Under the watchful eyes of Lingquan and the others, Xiao Fan, dressed in white, slowly walked out of the woods.
"Inner Academy student?"
