Chapter 25: Interception

"It seems that things are much more serious than I imagined, the last time I met Chi Kun and the Qi family outside the Treasure Pavilion, I felt a little wrong, and now it seems that some people can't hold it back. Yuan Chen said slowly guessing.

The last time Yuan Chen and Chi Kun fought outside the Treasure Pavilion, just when Chi Kun fell into defeat, the person who stood up to help Chi Kun deal with Yuan Chen turned out to be Qi Tianshu of the Qi family, this matter has actually made Yuan Chen very puzzled, but later Yuan Chen learned from the Xiao family that Chi Kun seems to be very close to Xiao Hong recently, and from these little contacts, Yuan Chen can guess that Xiao Hong is very likely to collude with the Qi family secretly, but what makes Yuan Chen puzzled is that the Xiao family and the Qi family are feuds and Xiao Hong is the second young master of the Xiao family, I don't know why Xiao Hong will collude with the Qi family。

Xiao Xue'er seemed to see the confusion in Yuan Chen's eyes and explained: " Well, Yuanchen, you may not know the faction and some secret history of our Xiao family, in fact, the Xiao family is not as iron as you think, but divided into two major factions, one of the factions is the faction of Xiao Yijiang, the head of the Xiao family, and my father Xiao Mai, and the other faction is the faction of Xiao Ting, the eldest elder of the Xiao family, and Xiao Peng, the second elder of the Xiao family, Second Elder Xiao Peng is Elder Xiao Ting's younger brother, so he also followed Elder Xiao Ting to stand on the opposite side of the Xiao family patriarch. ”

After Xiao Xue'er took the dry food roasted by the bonfire handed over by Yuan Chen, she continued while eating: " Later, Elder Xiao Ting completely tore his face with the patriarch Xiao Yijiang because of some economic disputes in Yangyan Town, Elder Xiao Ting seemed to have reached some kind of agreement with the Qi family in the four major forces in Yangyan Town, and then joined forces to put pressure on the patriarch of Xiao Yijiang, but fortunately the patriarch Xiao Yijiang also united the Liu family, which was also the four major forces, to be able to contend with it, and finally the two parties divided the property at that time equally to settle the dispute, Xiao Ting and Xiao Peng, the two elders, also announced from that dispute that they would live in seclusion in the Xiao family in the future, but what Xiao Hong has done recently is indeed a bit abnormal, I am worried that the elder Xiao Ting may have to do something againAfter all, the sudden serious injury of my father is very strange, and I suspect that it is very likely that the Great Elder did it, but I don't have any evidence. ”

"I came to the Yangyan Mountains this time to find an elixir that could heal my father's internal injuries, because I have only stabilized my father's injuries for a few days, but I have not completely eradicated them. Second, I am also going to secretly investigate what Great Elder Xiao Ting and they plan to do, this time my father was so seriously injured because of them, I will definitely avenge this revenge in the future. Xiao Xue'er bit her red lips and said hatefully.

"Elixir cures, Xiao Xue'er, what elixir do you need? Maybe I can help you find it, I have found a lot of good elixirs in my cultivation in the mountains recently. Yuan Chen looked at Xiao Xue'er and asked.

Xiao Xue'er looked at Yuan Chen in surprise, "Really?" That's really good, I need to find two kinds of medicinal materials, just the rest of me have it now, the two medicinal materials that are currently missing are the inner tank of the Yanhorn Lizard and the Sanyang Grass, these two medicinal materials were originally planned to go to the town to buy, but due to Xiao Hong's surveillance, I can only come to the Yangyan Mountains to try my luck, but I heard that these two medicinal materials are relatively common in the Yangyan Mountains, so I walked in the mountains and looked for them, I didn't think that it would be dark so soon, I had to find a place to stay, so I met you. ”

"That's right, I have both kinds of medicinal materials you want, not long ago I just defeated a flame horned lizard, and it just so happened that I had its inner tank with me, but I didn't expect this to come in handy. Yuan Chen said with a smile, and took out a few Sanyang grasses and a jade box from the cloth bag he was carrying, and motioned for Xiao Xue'er to investigate.

After Xiao Xue'er opened the jade box handed over by Yuan Chen, she saw that there was an orange-red liner quietly exuding a hot breath in the jade box, which coincided with the inner tank she knew in her mind, Xiao Xue'er found that this was exactly the inner tank she needed, and at this time, the inner tank that Yuan Chen gave her was still intact and undamaged.

Such a well-preserved flame horned lizard lint is extremely rare even on the market, and the more complete the inner tank, the faster it can be treated.

Seeing the two medicinal herbs in Yuan Chen's hand, Xiao Xue'er was relieved in her heart, she knew that her father's illness could be treated in time, and Xiao Xue'er's pale face couldn't help but show a smile.

"It's too late now, and there will be more demon beasts on the periphery at night, not to mention that you have also been on the road for a day, so let's wait for dawn and then we will go down the mountain together to heal Elder Xiao Mai, so let's simply stay here for the night today." Yuan Chen said with a smile.

"yes, okay. Xiao Xue'er nodded in response.

············

Following.

After cleaning up the camp, Yuan Chen and Xiao Xue'er walked in the direction of the outside of the Yangyan Mountain Range, and a ray of sunlight in the early morning shone on Xiao Xue'er's delicate face at the right time, and it could be seen that Xiao Xue'er was still in a very relaxed mood at this time.

"If we continue to walk a short distance, we will be able to get out of this Yangyan Mountain Range, and then we will be able to reach the Xiao family by walking along the official road for about half an hour, rest assured that we will go out soon, you don't have to be too anxious." Yuan Chen comforted Xiao Xue'er and said.

"Mmmm, I'm glad I met you Yuanchen, otherwise I don't know if I can find these medicinal materials now. Xiao Xue'er said gratefully.

"It's okay, you actually helped me a lot before, whether it was in the Martial Arts Pavilion or the big bag of gold coins that were given to me later, if it weren't for your help, I might have missed a lot of things in the future, and I might not even be able to enter the underground exchange. Yuan Chen scratched his head and said absently.

"Hee-hee-hee, yes, then we can also help each other, since we are all friends, I won't say much about the extra thanks, no matter what you can do in the future, I will not shirk it, this is the agreement between me and you." Xiao Xue'er smiled sweetly.

Looking at the trust and firmness in Xiao Xue'er's eyes, Yuan Chen also had a feeling in his heart that he had never felt before, which was a sense of satisfaction from being unconditionally trusted.

Just when Yuan Chen wanted to say something to Xiao Xue'er again, there was a little movement in the depths of the surrounding woods, although this movement was very subtle, but because of Yuan Chen's special physique, his sensitive sense of hearing and smell could accurately capture it, and Yuan Chen could clearly feel that the voice was rapidly approaching their direction from afar.

It's close... It's close again...

Xiao Xue'er looked at Yuan Chen, who suddenly fell silent, for some reason, and just wanted to ask Yuan Chen what was wrong, but before she could say anything, she only heard Yuan Chen shouting:

"Get down!"

Although Xiao Xue'er hadn't seen what had happened, out of extreme trust in Yuan Chen, Xiao Xue'er still did what Yuan Chen said.

Just as Xiao Xue'er had just laid down for less than a moment, a knife shadow swept straight past where Xiao Xue'er was standing.

Xiao Xue'er was shocked into a cold sweat when she saw this scene, if she had reacted a little bit after hearing Yuan Chen's voice, she would probably have been killed now.

"Who is it, dare to intercept us here!" Xiao Xue'er stood up and said coquettishly.

No matter how you say it, Xiao Xue'er is also a member of the Xiao family, and she is also the daughter of Xiao Mai, the third elder of the Xiao family, there are really not many people who dare to tear their faces like this in this big Yangyan Town, and do something to Xiao Xue'er.

"Boom··········· Xiao Xue'er of the Xiao family, right, in fact, we don't just want to kill you, but someone pays to buy your life, and we also rely on this craft to eat, you say. The shadow of the knife stopped, and saw a black-robed man standing at the shadow of the knife, and while he was talking, many black-robed people walked out of the woods around Yuan Chen and the two of them, and surrounded the two.

"What a big battle, one Spirit Realm Ninefold Peak, three Spirit Realm Eightfold Ones, and more than a dozen Spirit Realm Sixth or Sevenfold Ones, it's really tricky." After listening to the black-robed man at the ninefold peak of the Spirit Realm, Yuan Chen and Xiao Xue'er looked at each other and thought to themselves.

"Hehehe, Yuan Chen didn't expect that I met you on a mission this time, God really helped me, after I kill you, I will bury you well, and it can be regarded as our acquaintance. ”

A hoarse voice came from this group of black-robed people, Yuan Chen noticed that a one-armed black-robed man walked towards him, when the black-robed man took off the black robe on his head, not only Yuan Chen, but even Xiao Xue'er's eyes were staring, the person who came was none other than Chi Kun, the heir of the courtyard outside the Xiao family who was defeated by Yuan Chen not long ago!

"It turned out to be you? Chi Kun! You dared to lead someone to intercept Xiao Xue'er halfway, I don't know how you dared to return to Xiao's house after this time. Yuan Chen asked with a smile.

"Yuan Chen, I also admire the courage very much, I laughed when I was dying, why can't I go back? Kill all the two of you and destroy the corpses, who can know that I did it? Besides, with the lineup I brought out today, do you think you can still escape?" Chi Kun said with a cruel smile, looking at Yuan Chen with a mocking look in his eyes.

"The people you are carrying? You Chi Kun, a humble heir of the Xiao family, where can you bring such a cultivator, hehehe, if my guess is right, these people should be borrowed from the Qi family, right, just because you are still pretending to be the master here? But I really laughed to death, and the third elder of the Xiao family, Xiao Mai, suddenly lost his mind and vomited blood when he broke through the bottleneck, and you should have done it. Yuan Chen asked calmly with a look in his eyes.

After Xiao Xue'er heard Yuan Chen's words, her eyes instantly looked at Chi Kun, although she didn't know how Yuan Chen judged it, but she believed that Yuan Chen didn't say Chi Kun for no reason, if Yuan Chen said that this matter was done by Chi Kun, Xiao Xue'er also believed it now.

After hearing Yuan Chen's words, Chi Kun suddenly looked at Yuan Chen with a stunned face like a lightning strike, and said tremblingly, "What else do you know?"

Hearing that Yuan Chen and Xiao Xue'er still didn't understand that their IQ was not enough, Chi Kun's reaction was obviously telling the two that all this should be related to him.
