Chapter 31 Chapter 31 The Hong Family

As Han Chong said, the journey after passing through the Ten Thousand Snake Gorge was quite smooth. After a few days, except for occasional minor troubles, it did not slow down the speed of the convoy. During the few days of rushing, the so-called Tianbei City was getting closer and closer. In the past few days, after recuperating and adjusting his breath, Xiao Yan's strength has gradually recovered to 70% to 80% of his appearance. The wounds in his body are also quickly recovered under the dual effects of battle qi and elixirs. Seeing such progress , I am afraid that the speed of recovery will be earlier than Xiao Yan expected.

However, although his strength gradually recovered, Xiao Yan still did not show it. He had a good impression of these straightforward guys in this team. , and then add some other things to the faint friendship in the past few days. With Xiao Yan's current strength, if he wants to hide his aura, even Han Xue in this convoy may not be able to detect it. What's more, perhaps because of the power of space in his body, if Xiao Yan wants to If it is hidden strength, let alone Han Xue, even some Douhuang peaks, and even Douzong powerhouses, it is somewhat difficult to determine their true strength level.

However, although Xiao Yan himself felt that the concealment was extremely perfect, in the past few days on the road, he found that Han Xue's attitude towards him seemed to be a little better. No one asked Xiao Yan to do rough work anymore, Xiao Yan also smiled wryly in his heart for this special treatment. Is a woman's intuition really so terrible? He is confident that he has never exposed the slightest trace, but Han Xue still seems to be aware of something faintly, occasionally looking into Xiao Yan's eyes, there will be a touch of doubt and contemplation flashing through. Moreover, when Han Xue was free, she would often appear in front of Xiao Yan, and chat with him seemingly casually, but the content of the chat was secretly inquiring about Xiao Yan's identity and origin. With all these years of experience, it is naturally impossible for a girl like her to show her flaws. Those vague words that seem to be true or false every time make Han Xue return without success. The feeling on the cotton made her quite upset.

When such a scene made Xiao Yan feel helpless, he could only keep the distance between himself and Han Xue as much as possible, so as not to be discovered by this sensitive woman. Hurrying on the way, Han Xue's constant probing and guessing passed quickly, and when camping on the fifth day, a messenger bird painted with the Han family emblem flew over from the direction of Tianbei City. Taking the letter paper carried by the messenger bird from a guard, Han Xue slowly spread it out, her pretty face slowly turned cold as her beautiful eyes swept, and there was even something in the pair of eyes. Anger flashed.

Looking at the change in Han Xue's face, the camp that was still laughing became much quieter. Everyone stood up and looked at Han Xue in the center. "Miss, what happened?" Han Chong asked in a deep voice. "It's a letter from the family. The letter said that the Hong family is planning to take action against the Han family recently. Let us be careful." Han Xueyu clenched her hands tightly, her voice cold and authentic. "The Hong family? Damn it, it's these bastards again." Hearing the word Hong family, there were bursts of angry curses all around. "What do they want to do this time?" Han Chong asked, wrinkled.

Han Xue's eyelashes fluttered lightly, and then she said calmly, "The old man of the Hong family wants me to marry my sister to Hong Chen, but the ultimate goal is to annex my Han family and become the real overlord of Tianbei City, right?" .” Hearing this, the faces of many young people in the convoy turned gloomy. Obviously, the conditions proposed by the Hong family made them extremely angry. "Damn it, the Hong family really thinks that my Han family is a persimmon that can be squeezed by others? How dare you make such a bastard request." Han Chong said angrily.

Facing Han Chong's angry voice, Han Xue's pretty face was still cold, and her beautiful eyes moved slightly, but suddenly she stopped on the young man in black robe sitting by the fire, but the latter didn't seem to hear the voice here, just focused on Lowering her head and throwing the fire, Han Xue twitched her brows slightly, turned her eyes away, and said coldly: "Tomorrow we will enter the Tianbei City area, everyone be careful." "Yes!" Everyone responded in unison. Han Xue nodded, then immediately turned around and entered her tent without knowing who she was addressing.

With the disappearance of Han Xueqian's shadow, everyone in the camp sat back by the fire again, their faces flickering under the light of the fire. The so-called Hong family, in their view, was more threatening than that. The demon snake Xia Mang is even stronger. "Brother Han, is the Hong family strong?" The quiet and oppressive atmosphere lasted for a long time, Xiao Yan, who was concentrating on planing the fire, finally straightened up, stretched his waist, and said with a smile. "Speaking of it, the Hong family is probably the strongest family in Tianbei City. Even my Han family is slightly inferior to it, and the most important thing is that this Hong family has some relationship with Fenglei Pavilion. The most outstanding Hong Chen in his generation is a member of Fenglei Pavilion, and he is highly valued in it." Han Chong sighed, and said with a wry smile: "The Hong family was able to survive in just a few short years because of this big tree. Among them, the prestige and influence have soared, after all, in the entire northern region of Zhongzhou, the Fenglei Pavilion can be regarded as the top first-class force, and my Han family is far behind it."

"Fenglei Pavilion?" Hearing this familiar name again, Xiao Yan's eyes also flashed with astonishment. The events in this world are really a coincidence... "So what about Fenglei Pavilion? Damn it, if the Hong family really dare to fight, even if I can't beat them, I will kill them before I die." A young guard beside the fire said with anger on his face. Han Chong didn't take these young people's angry words to heart, and patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder and said, "Brother Xiao Yan, it seems that the Han family is about to become restless. You have a lot of money, so you can leave on your own, so as not to get involved." Xiao Yan smiled, noncommittal, "Okay, everyone, go to bed early, add more manpower to watch the night, and brighten my eyes tomorrow. After returning to the family, it should be safe." Han Chong sighed, stood up, waved his hand, and then turned and left, leaving the angry crowd facing the fire.

Looking at the somewhat tired back, Xiao Yan flicked his fingers, and a piece of bamboo in his hand flew into the fire with a whistling sound, and then went deep into the ground like an arrow. " After clapping his hands, Xiao Yan also got up, greeted everyone, and slowly walked back to his tent. When entering the tent, he sighed softly and muttered to himself. "Alas... human feelings are really heavy..." ... The sun was shining brightly, the sky was cloudless, beams of light, with high temperature, were constantly pouring down. In this hot weather, even the woods on both sides of the road were drooping slightly.

On the spacious road, a convoy galloped wildly, bringing up dust and smoke along the way. "Attention everyone, we are about to enter the Tianbei City area!" In the convoy, there was a sudden shout, and everyone's hearts tightened. They looked up at a guiding stone at the end of the road, and their palms couldn't help but slowly touch the weapon behind them. I started to sweat a little. The convoy ran wildly, like an angry bison, rumbling across the road, and within a few minutes, they approached the guiding stone. call out! call out! call out! The moment the convoy had just passed the stone monument, the sharp sound of breaking wind suddenly resounded, and immediately countless arrows shot out from the woods on both sides, enveloping the entire convoy. The sudden arrows surprised many people, but fortunately they were prepared, and all the arrows were blocked by bursts of battle energy. "Hehe, it seems that I have been prepared for a long time, but it's a pity..." Laughter came slowly from the woods, and immediately a large number of black shadows rushed out, blocking all the roads leading to Tianbei City, and what caught Han Chong and the others the most was the two people at the front of the group of black shadows. old man. The two were wearing a light red robe with the same red badge on the chest of the robe. "People from the Hong family." Looking at the red badge, the eyes of Han Chong and the others shrank suddenly. "Hehe, Miss Han Xue, please come out. The two old men came here for the reason, but you..." Ignoring Han Chong's guards, the two old men stared at Han Xue's vehicle and smiled lightly. "Crunch..." The door of the car opened slowly, and Han Xue, who had a pretty face and an indifferent face, walked down slowly, stared at the two old men with cold eyes, and said with a sneer, "I never thought that I would be able to work hard for Hong Mu and Hong Lie, two elders, just to catch me, a little girl. It’s really an honor.” As she said this, Han Xue's heart gradually sank a lot. The strength of these two elders of the Hong family is around the four-star Douhuang, stronger than that of Xia Mang. Now they are fighting together. Today ... I'm afraid it is really doomed. "You don't need to talk nonsense, the old man has no choice but to follow orders, you, come with us!" Hong Lie said with a blank expression as he glanced at Han Xue. "Dream!" A cold light flashed in Han Xue's eyes, and with a grasp of her jade hand, a long sword flashed out. "Stubborn." Seeing Han Xue's recalcitrance, Hong Lie shook his head, a look of impatience flashed in his eyes, he stepped forward, and appeared directly in front of the former, waving his palm, a strong fiery wind, with an oppressive aura , Directly cover all Han Xue's escape routes. Looking at Hong Lie who was walking around with all his strength as soon as he made a move, Han Xue's cheeks also turned pale, and immediately he gritted his silver teeth, and blasted out. "Boom!" The two palms touched, and the strong wind that diffused immediately shocked the people around them to retreat hurriedly, and Han Xue's delicate body was like a kite with a broken string, and she stepped back a dozen steps before she stabilized. "You have some ability to catch the old man's palm. No wonder you can attract the attention of the young master." Hong Lie remained motionless, glanced at Han Xue who was backing away, and said lightly, and then stepped on again, and appeared again In front of the latter, the palm wind roared and continued to strike. Feeling Hong Lie's more ferocious attack than before, Han Xue's face also showed a tinge of desperation. Facing the Dou Huang powerhouse, she had no strength to contend at all... The palm wind came with a bang, but just when it was about to fall on Han Xue's body, an invisible force suddenly emerged, and immediately with a loud bang, Hong Lie's palm wind was easily resolved, and the remaining power was also He was so shocked that he took a few steps back. The sudden change made everyone startled, and Han Xue, after being stunned for a moment, turned her head suddenly, her beautiful eyes fixed on the carriage where Xiao Yan was. "Sigh, to bully the young with the old, you can be so righteous and confident. At this age, you have cultivated your face..." While everyone was stunned, a helpless voice sounded slowly, but this time, the voice was clear and powerful, and it was no longer the old voice from last time...
