Chapter 867 An unexpected meeting
"Who?" Hearing this, a hint of surprise and confusion flashed in his eyes. Then he stood up, straightened his clothes, and walked out of the tent.
Halfway through the walk, he suddenly had an idea: could it be that she is here?!
Wen Xingyan paused, and the figure of a woman emerged in his mind.
An inexplicable excitement surged in his heart, and he involuntarily quickened his pace.
On the grass outside the tent, the sunlight was dappled. A young Warcraft boy was waiting quietly, and Xiaoliu was leaning lazily against a tree.
Sensing someone approaching, the young man looked up and saw Wen Xingyan. He waved his hand and said, "Are you Wen Xingyan? Call Xuan Mu, I don't want to make a second trip."
A trace of surprise flashed across Wen Xingyan's brows. He looked past the young man and looked at the deserted grassland in the distance. The excitement in his heart receded like a tide, leaving only emptiness.
He frowned, "She's here? Where is she?"
The sunlight filtered through the treetops and fell onto his slightly furrowed brows, reflecting a hint of loneliness.
Xiao Liu waved his hand and pointed to the Dragon Rider Mercenary Group's camp not far away. "It's right there."
Wen Xingyan looked in the direction of Xiaoliu's finger and saw a blurry and slender figure leaning against an ancient tree beside the Dragon Rider Mercenary Group's camp. The sunlight dappled her shoulders, giving her a soft golden edge.
She lowered her head and played with a fallen leaf in her hand, occasionally looking up at this side. The breeze blew by, causing a few strands of hair on her forehead to flutter gently. The scene was peaceful and beautiful, which made Wen Xingyan's heart inexplicably soften.
Wen Xingyan suppressed his emotions, turned around and said, "I understand."
Xiaoliu spread his hands and turned to leave. Anyway, he brought the news.
A moment later, in the temporary base of Eclipse Territory.
The disciples of Eclipse Territory were not surprised to see Wen Xingyan. "Young Master Wen, my young master is in the tent. You can just go in."
Wen Xingyan nodded slightly and walked into the tent.
It was a little dark in the camp, and the light of the night pearl illuminated the focused figure in the center, who was none other than the young master of the Eclipse Territory, Xuan Mu.
He was studying a map with his head down, frowning from time to time.
The halo outlines his resolute features, and his brows reveal a decisiveness that should not be underestimated.
Wen Xingyan walked forward slowly, his eyes falling on the map. The air between the two of them seemed to freeze, with only the occasional subtle sound of flipping papers being heard, which seemed particularly clear in the silence.
After a moment, Xuan Mu's cold voice rang out, "Wen Xingyan, do you think my tent is your home? You didn't even knock on the door."
Wen Xingyan was slightly stunned, then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He did not give in at all, and his eyes were still fixed on the complicated battle line.
"Enough of that, here she comes."
Xuan Mu paused his hand on the map, but he didn't even look up. He frowned, "Who is she?"
In an instant, a string broke.
He suddenly looked up. "She came to the Continent of Gods? When did that happen? How did you know?"
Wen Xingyan tightened his grip, "Her contracted beast just sent a message that she is here. Let's go see her."
Xuan Mu stood up suddenly, "What are you standing there for? Let's go!"
Xuan Mu walked out of the tent as fast as the wind, and every step he took seemed to shatter the tranquility of the space.
The sunlight shone from behind, casting a golden glow on his back, but it could not conceal the eagerness and light in his eyes.
Wen Xingyan followed closely behind, the two of them, one in front and one behind, as if chasing some distant yet familiar light.
Wen Xingyan quickly caught up with her, "You don't have to be so anxious, she's already here, she won't run away."
But his pace was not slower than Xuan Mu's.
Not far from the Dragon Rider Mercenary Group camp, Luo Li was standing quietly in a red dress. Sensing two auras approaching, she curled her lips, turned around, and saw the two people who were already in front of her.
Luo Li curled her lips and said generously: "Wen Xingyan, Xuan Mu, long time no see."
Luo Li's red dress was as fiery as fire, her hair fluttering lightly, and her skin looked even more translucent in the sunlight.
Her eyes moved with a hint of teasing and subtle temptation, and the corners of her mouth were raised at just the right angle, like a newly blooming rose.
Xuan Mu and Wen Xingyan stopped, the former had a deep look in his eyes, as if he had a thousand words to say but couldn't; the latter had a gentle and surprised smile on his face.
A breeze blew by, causing the three people's clothes to dance, as if time had frozen at this moment, forming a moving picture.
Luo Li opened her red lips slightly, her voice clear and pleasant: "It's been a long time since we last met. Have you two forgotten me?"
Xuan Mu's eyes were deep, as if he could see through people's hearts. He shook his head slightly, and a subtle smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, as if responding to the teasing in her words.
"I haven't forgotten."
Wen Xingyan's smile was even warmer, like the early spring sunshine. He slowly stepped forward and extended his hand, "Luo Li, long time no see. Welcome to the Continent of Gods."
Wen Xingyan's palms were dry and warm, as if they could dispel all the coldness.
Luo Li gently placed her hand on him, and the moment their fingertips touched, a warm current spread from her palm to her whole body.
There was a smile in her eyes, as if she had returned to the short time she spent with them in Tianyuan Continent.
Xuan Mu looked a little awkward. He pursed his lips, his voice slightly cold, and also extended his palm, "Long time no see."
"Luo Li." These two words circled on his lips, carrying an inexplicable tenderness.
Xuan Mu's palms were slightly larger than Wen Xingyan's, with thin calluses between his fingertips, which were the marks left by years of sword-making.
He would not use his spiritual power to erase these marks, because he felt that these marks were his pride as a swordsman.
Luo Li looked at him, the smile in her eyes still lingering, and gently placed her hand on him.
At that moment, it was as if a flash of lightning passed between the two of them. Xuan Mu's eyes flashed slightly, and he held her hand tightly back, with such strength that it seemed as if he wanted to carve her into his bones.
Luo Li was slightly stunned, "Long time no see."
She released her hand and said, "It seems like you're not too surprised by my sudden appearance in front of you. Shi Yuan seems much more excited than you."
Xuan Mu caught the key point, "Have you seen Xie Shiyuan?"
Luo Li nodded as a matter of course, "Yes."
Xuan Mu pressed on, "When did it happen?"
Luo Li glanced at him and replied, "Just over a month ago."
Xuan Mu gritted his teeth and raised his voice, "So you came to the Gods over a month ago, but you only went to find that guy Xie Shiyuan, right?!"
Luo Li asked curiously: "What else?"
He felt so strange. She was more familiar with Xie Shiyuan. Moreover, she was in Luoyue Territory at that time, and it was her last-minute decision to meet Xie Shiyuan.
Wen Xingyan coughed lightly, his voice still gentle, "Okay, Luo Li must have her own ideas."
He smiled and said, "Why are you here? Did you hear any news?"
For example, I heard that the two of them were going to lead a team here.
