"You didn't see it then. The old man swept through the enemy army, defeating those giant ants piece by piece. Alas, Xiaoyun and I couldn't help even if we wanted to."
Yan Chen spoke and sighed deeply, with regret in his last tone.
Zhongli Wuyuan looked at him saying these words in such a "pretentious" manner, his eyes flickered slightly, and he made up his mind.
Sister Xiaoyun?
Mysterious old man?
Zhongli Wuyuan's lips curled slightly, but he quickly suppressed it. He raised his hand and patted Yan Chen's shoulder, saying in a tone that seemed to have survived a disaster: "As long as you two are okay."
After saying that, he looked at Yun Zheng who was sitting by the tree and asked, "What happened to Xiao Yun?"
When Yan Chen heard this, although he didn't show it on his face, he became inexplicably nervous in his heart.
"Wuyuan, after I was bitten by a poisonous snake, my body became paralyzed and I am temporarily unable to get up." Yun Zheng looked up at him.
Her voice was rather cold, causing Zhongli Wuyuan to raise his eyebrows in surprise.
He thought she was a delicate woman, but he didn't expect...
"Master Zhongli."
A low and cold voice came from behind Zhongli Wuyuan.
Zhongli Wuyuan turned around and saw that the people coming were Chu Yunheng and others... and a group of mercenaries.
"Wuyuan, who are they?" Yan Chen frowned, nudged Zhongli Wuyuan with his elbow, raised his chin and asked in confusion.
Before Zhongli Wuyuan could speak, Chu Yunheng introduced himself: "I am Chu Yunheng, the third prince of the Great Chu State. I believe this is Master Zhongli's companion, right?"
Zhongli Wuyuan nodded, then briefly explained to Yan Chen, "After I got separated from you, I met them. They invited me to go with them, and I agreed."
Yan Chen nodded: "I see."
Yan Chen nodded politely to Chu Yunheng.
At this moment, the leader of the elegant scholar group, who had been silent the entire time, spoke up. "You said you and your little sister just encountered an old man? Can I ask where that old man went?"
Yan Chen frowned and shook his head, "I don't know either. I only know that he went east."
When the elegant scholar leader heard this, his gaze paused on Yan Chen's face, then looked at Yun Zheng.
However, Yun Zheng had her head down at the moment, so her expression couldn't be seen clearly, not to mention that she was wearing a face mask.
He had a hunch that this woman seemed not simple!
The gray-robed old man beside Chu Yunheng bowed in the direction of the elegant scholar leader and said with a smile, "Captain Nangong, I have long heard of your great name."
The leader of the elegant scholars is Nangong Qi.
Nangong Qi also bowed and greeted the grey-robed old man, "I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it."
Wang Kong in the mercenary team kept staring at Yun Zheng. Looking at the red dress she was wearing, he felt a sense of familiarity!
But I just can't remember where I've seen it.
After a few perfunctory words with the grey-robed old man, Nangong Qi said, "Since there's nothing else to do, our Wolf Fang Mercenary Group will leave first."
After saying that, he waved his hand and left into the depths with a large group of mercenaries behind him.
After the mercenaries left, Chu Yunheng, hoping to win them over, asked with a smile, "Master Zhongli, why don't you continue to train with us in the depths?"
"Yes, yes, Brother Zhongli, when there are many people in danger, they can help each other." Chu Yunrou raised her fingers and elegantly hooked the hair on her temples, smiling lightly.
Yun Zheng couldn't help laughing when she saw Chu Yunrou's pretentious look.
For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on her.
Especially the flash of resentment that flashed across Chu Yunrou's face.
Chu Yunrou looked at Yun Zheng and asked in a weak and ignorant manner, "Sister, what are you laughing at?"
Yun Zheng nearly vomited at her delicate voice. In the past, whenever Chu Yunrou faced the original owner, she was always overbearing, glaring at people with her nose, and whipping people when she was unhappy...
Now, it has turned upside down into a little white lotus.
But to be honest, Chu Yunrou is not as good as Su Rongsan in kung fu.
Yun Zheng smiled and said, "I just suddenly remembered that when the Piranha Plant is hunting, it will pretend to be a small white flower. I just saw Miss Chu's posture, and for some reason my mind connected them."
"You..." bitch!
If Chu Yunheng hadn't suddenly pulled her hand, she would have probably said those vulgar words.
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Chu Yunrou's eyes, and she endured it with gritted teeth.
This bitch actually dared to compare herself to a carnivorous plant!
"And don't call me sister, because you look much older than me." Yun Zheng retorted to her mercilessly.
Chu Yunrou couldn't stand being called old. She was already furious, and now provoked by this, her voice went from delicate to sharp, "You, this princess will kill you!"
As she spoke, she pulled a sword from the hand of the guard behind her. With a flash of cold silver light, the sharp tip of the sword came in front of her.
"No!" Chu Yunheng was shocked.
Jiang Yichen looked as if he had nothing to do with it.
Yan Chen was furious, and immediately gathered his spiritual power and slapped Chu Yunrou, who was about to succeed, away!
'Bang--'
Chu Yunrou's body flew to the side like a kite with a broken string, hit the trunk of a big tree, and then bounced back.
"Puff——" Chu Yunrou spat out a mouthful of blood as she fell to the ground.
Chu Yunheng's eyes were about to burst, and he rushed over worriedly, "Rou'er!"
"Princess!" The other royal family members exclaimed and ran to Chu Yunrou's side.
Chu Yunheng picked up the half-conscious Chu Yunrou, patted her face gently, and asked worriedly: "Rou'er, Rou'er..."
Seeing this, the gray-robed old man struggled for a moment, then reluctantly stuffed a first-grade pill into Chu Yunrou's mouth.
Then he took Chu Yunrou's pulse and felt relieved. He respectfully reported to Chu Yunheng, "Your Highness, the princess is fine for now. She just suffered internal injuries and fainted temporarily."
"I just fed the princess a pill, so don't worry."
Chu Yunheng breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
He glanced at Yan Chen, who was standing with his arms folded across his chest without any guilt, and a wave of depressed anger spread in his heart. After handing Chu Yunrou in his arms to a guard for care, he stood up.
Chu Yunheng walked towards them, his face gloomy and he asked, "Shouldn't you give an explanation? Why did you beat my sister like this?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Chen sneered nonchalantly, his ink-black eyes turning slightly cold.
"You have a younger sister, but don't I have a younger sister? Just now, your younger sister wanted to kill our Xiaoyun, so I took action! If I hadn't taken action, our Xiaoyun would have been injured for more than just a few days!"
Zhongli Wuyuan, who was standing next to him, raised his eyebrows in surprise when he heard "our Xiaoyun". Yan Chen seemed very familiar.
It hasn't even been two days since they've been separated, and he's already defending this 'Sister Xiaoyun' like this?
