With the departure of the main hall master, the world has also returned to its original appearance, and the oppressive atmosphere shrouding the world has also dissipated. But even so, Xiao, who is standing above the sky at this moment,
Yan, but there was still no relaxed expression on his face.
Seeing Xiao Jin who once again turned into a little snake and hovered in front of him, Xiao Yan couldn't help but show a touch of pity in his eyes, and a surge of anger rose in his heart.
Although his body has shrunk, the injuries suffered by Xiao Jin have not weakened at all. The body that was originally covered with glittering golden dragon scales is now replaced by bright red blood. There are scars all over the body, looking miserable.
Extremely.
Along the way, Xiao Jin did not know how many injuries he had suffered because of Xiao Yan, and he almost lost his life every time. For Xiao Yan, Xiao Jin could even risk his life, but he could only look at those who hurt Xiao Jin with helpless eyes.
The people left safely, which made Xiao Yan furious in his heart and at the same time hated himself for being weak.
He thought that after reaching the current level, he would be able to protect the people he wanted to protect, but he never expected that along the way, he would be covered with scars. Even Xiao Jin, the only relative beside him, could not be protected until now.
, he truly felt his own weakness.
As long as he doesn't reach his peak, he will never be called a strong man, let alone protect his loved ones.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan's palms hidden under his sleeves could not help but tremble and he clenched them tightly. In his mind, the faces of Jian Ming and others appeared one by one, and finally, it was the master of the hall.
The faces of these people have been deeply engraved in his mind. From now on, as long as these people do not die, they will become a nightmare that will hinder Xiao Yan's life.
However, just as the anger in Xiao Yan's heart was rising, an old man wearing a golden robe, with white hair and beard, and a kind face appeared without warning in the void a few feet away from Xiao Yan.
"Well…"
The moment the old man appeared, Xiao Yan quickly came back to his senses, raised his eyes quickly, and a solemn look gradually appeared on his pale face. After a moment, Xiao Yan hurriedly clasped his fists towards the old man and said in a respectful tone:
"Junior Xiao Yan, thank you senior for saving me just now!"
But the moment Xiao Yan glanced at the old man's face, a strange feeling passed through his heart.
In response, the old man in golden robe smiled faintly, and his turbid old eyes full of vicissitudes of life looked deeply at Xiao Yan, then glanced at Xiao Jin on Xiao Yan's shoulder, frowned slightly, and then landed on Xiao Yan's again.
body, and then slowly opened his mouth and said:
"You don't have to thank me. If you want to thank me, let's thank this little guy. If he hadn't been desperately trying to save you, I might not have taken action."
Hearing this, the look on Xiao Yan's face couldn't help but startled slightly, and then he gently stroked Xiao Jin's head with his blood-stained palm. He couldn't help but be touched in his heart, smiled, and whispered to Xiao Jin:
"Haha, little guy, I'm really lucky to have you."
"Ho ho ho..."
Hearing the words from Xiao Yan's mouth, Xiao Jin, who was seriously injured, pressed his little head into Xiao Yan's palm and roared in a low voice.
Looking at Xiao Jin on his shoulder, Xiao Yan couldn't help but chuckle. Then he remembered the old man in front of him. He quickly turned around and looked at the old man in brocade robes. He held his hand again and said:
"No matter what, it is thanks to the senior's intervention today that the junior was able to save a life. The senior is so kind, and the junior is really grateful!"
"Haha, there is no need to be grateful, but there is something I want to take away."
The old man stroked his beard with one hand, looked at Xiao Yan with a smile, glanced at Xiao Jin again, and said with a chuckle.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan immediately frowned, and with a thought in his mind, the King of the North flew over from a distance and stood beside Xiao Yan.
Although Xiao Yan is a person who always repays kindness, if the other party has evil intentions, he will not treat them politely.
When King Bei came to his side, Xiao Yan felt confident in his heart. From the eyes of the old man in gold robe, he could clearly see that the old man's intention was to focus on the little gold on his shoulder.
With some hope in his heart, Xiao Yan also hoped that this was just his temporary worry. After a few breaths, Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes, stared at the old man in gold robe, spoke again, and said in a solemn voice:
"I don't know what the senior is referring to..."
"I'm talking about him who is on your left shoulder right now!"
Before Xiao Yan finished speaking, the old man in gold robe stretched out his finger and pointed directly at Xiao Jin.
"Senior, this junior doesn't quite understand what you mean."
His eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't expect that the old man in gold robe actually had Xiao Jin's idea. This made Xiao Yan feel a surge of anger in his heart. Now, Xiao Jin is the only relative around him, and he will never allow anyone to take him away.
Leaving his side, even if the other party is a super strong man who surpasses Yuan Zong, it is absolutely impossible!
As Xiao Yan's thoughts fell, King Bei in front of him moved, blocking Xiao Yan and Xiao Jin behind him. Xiao Yan quickly took a few imperial-grade elixirs and quickly recovered from the injuries in his body, as well as from the previous
The fighting spirit lost in the war.
At the same time, the small amount of fighting spirit that had been temporarily restored in the body was also lifted up by Xiao Yan at this moment. Wisps of tiny flames shook and rose on the surface of Xiao Yan's body. This scene made the old man in gold robe couldn't help but flash across his eyes.
A look of surprise.
"Hey, boy, you are quite courageous. With this little strength, you are still able to raise your fighting spirit in front of me. Looking at the entire continent, you are truly the number one person!"
Raising his eyebrows slightly, the old man in gold robe couldn't help but chuckled at Xiao Yan. His words were calm and without any ripples, but even so, it was enough to show the surprise in his heart towards Xiao Yan.
Hearing this, the muscles on Xiao Yan's face couldn't help but tremble violently, over-squeezing the fighting spirit in his body. This was a big load for him!
Even so, Xiao Yan still grasped it out of thin air, took out the Xuan Zhong Ruler from the Najie, and held it in the palm of his hand.
However, what is different from usual is that the Xuanzhong Ruler, which used to be very handy in Xiao Yan's hands and has been completely accustomed to the weight, is now the moment Xiao Yan takes it. His arms can't help but sink slightly, and his whole body is shaking.
His face also looked paler.
"This is……"
Seeing the giant ruler in Xiao Yan's hand, the old man in gold robe couldn't help but concentrate slightly, and murmured in a low voice. His muddy old eyes stared at Xiao Yan again, and he couldn't help but have a look of horror in his eyes.
gush out.
After a long time, the slightly heavy atmosphere between heaven and earth was broken again by the old man's kind laughter.
"Haha, okay, okay, put it away. You are overwhelmed now. Rather than losing your own essence without knowing the whole story, it is better to listen to what I have to say. I believe you will agree to my taking him away.
"
Xiao Yan frowned, raised the giant ruler in his hand slightly and pointed it at the old man, while he kept thinking in his heart.
Facing a strong man of this level, he really didn't dare to be careless, but having said that, if the old man in gold robe really had any evil intentions against Xiao Jin, he would probably have done it directly instead of wasting time with him here. Since
The latter believes that he can convince himself, so he will listen to him for the time being, which can be regarded as delaying some time and allowing himself to recover more fighting spirit.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan put away the strange fire and fighting spirit that poured out of his body under the kind smile of the golden-robed old man. The Xuan Zhong Ruler still dared not relax and was held in the palm of Xiao Yan's hand.
