Chapter 142 One Mind

"Eh?" In the leader's room of the Motie Mercenary Group, Xiao Yixian looked at Xiao Yan in astonishment, "You are going to the territory of the snake people?"

"Well, my second sister has received a hiring commission, and I just want to check on my sister's situation."

Xiao Yan nodded and answered softly.

"Is that so?" Xiao Yixian lowered her head slightly, and after a moment, she smiled and said to Xiao Yan: "It's okay, you go, I'll wait for you here."

Xiao Yixian knew it very well, better than anyone else.

Now, not only can I not help Xiao Yan, but I am a burden to him.

It's better to say that I knew this fact very well from the beginning.

Because, I am very weak, although I have a body of evil poison, but now I am just an ordinary person after all.

Since I can't help Xiao Yan, at least I can't hold him back.

"Then Xiao Yixian, you wait here with peace of mind, I will come back immediately after the matter is over."

Xiao Yan didn't think much, nodded lightly and left the leader's room again.

Xiao Yixian looked at Xiao Yan who was leaving, lowered her head slightly, and felt a little unwilling in her heart.

She was sure that Xiao Yan would never dislike her because she was holding him back, otherwise he would not have taken her on the road from the beginning.

However, Xiao Yan did not care, but Xiao Yixian did.

Xiao Yixian did not want to be just an ordinary person following Xiao Yan. She also wanted to help Xiao Yan, instead of waiting for him silently in a safe place every time Xiao Yan went to do something dangerous.

Xiao Yixian was extremely reluctant to make this a normal thing.

But Xiao Yixian never thought of leaving Xiao Yan. This was not only a manifestation of escape, but also a silent questioning of Xiao Yan's original choice.

Did Xiao Yan make a wrong decision with his own decision?

No!

Xiao Yixian clenched her fists, with determination flashing in her eyes, and she was determined in her heart.

She wanted to prove that Xiao Yan was not wrong!

She wanted to prove that I, Xiao Yixian, was definitely not just a vase!

Whether for Xiao Yan or for myself!

Xiao Yixian took out the volume of the Poison Scripture from her ring and began to study and read it carefully.

She admitted that she could not help Xiao Yan at all now!

In this case, what she could do was to quickly learn the knowledge that would make her stronger! In order to help Xiao Yan as soon as possible!

On the sofa on the other side, the little boy who was holding an apple and chewing on it looked at Xiao Yixian who suddenly became strong, with a little surprise in his purple eyes.

He had seen Xiao Yixian's eyes.

It was the same look he had once had, eager to become stronger.

(It seems that this little girl is not just an ordinary person protected by Xiao Yan.)

Thinking so, the little boy continued to chew the apple silently.

In the end, it had nothing to do with him anyway, and he was not in a hurry to go back now. He would just treat the map shop as closed today and rest here for a while.

Outside the mercenary group, Xiao Li had already waved goodbye to Xiao Yan and the other two.

Xiao Yan had already bought the map in Xiaozhengtai's store. With Qinglin, a local in the team, they would definitely not get lost in the desert.

Apart from that, there seemed to be nothing else to prepare.

Although Xiao Li wanted to prepare mounts for the three of them, their Desert Iron Mercenary Group did not usually use mounts. In addition, they were not professional drivers, so even if they found mounts, they could not use them casually, so they had to give up. After that, Xiao Yan and the other two said goodbye to Xiao Li. Then, according to the direction on the map, and with the help of Qinglin who helped to correct the direction, Xiao Yan and Qinglin led the cloaked woman to slowly walk towards the territory of the snake people.

Along the way, Xiao Yan and Qinglin were both silent. Occasionally, they communicated to confirm whether the direction was correct. Apart from that, there was no extra talk.

Neither did they ask about the identity of the cloaked woman in a roundabout way, nor did they try to find out the purpose of the cloaked woman going to the territory of the snake people.

Originally, this was a good thing for the cloaked woman.

But being treated so calmly without any further questions made the cloaked woman feel uneasy.

It was as if she had deceived Xiao Yan and Qing Lin, although she had not lied, she had only concealed some things.

"Don't you want to ask something?"

Finally, the cloaked woman couldn't help it and asked Xiao Yan and Qing Lin softly.

But Xiao Yan and Qing Lin looked at her in confusion, and Xiao Yan frowned slightly.

"What?"

"My identity and my purpose."

"Ah, you said these." Xiao Yan's eyes showed some understanding, and then he said slowly: "If you are willing to say it, we are willing to listen, but since you don't take the initiative to tell it, we won't ask, this is your freedom."

"After all, we are just mercenaries hired by you. Logically speaking, we have no right to ask about your details."

"Of course, if you really conceal something that is life-threatening to us, that's another matter."

Xiao Yan answered very calmly, making the cloaked woman silent again for a long time.

Are all the people here like this? Or is Xiao Yan the only exception?

Although Xiao Yan's words sounded reasonable, they only sounded reasonable in theory. In reality, who would be so confident as not to find out the details of their employer?

Was this boy too confident in an unidentified stranger?

The cloaked woman carried this doubt in her heart and continued to move forward with Xiao Yan and Qing Lin who were leading the way.

After walking for about two or three hours, Qing Lin could no longer walk and was carried on Xiao Yan's back.

Although Qing Lin was very reluctant, she put aside her shame under Xiao Yan's gentle persuasion and was carried on Xiao Yan's back.

Suddenly, while moving forward, Qing Lin on Xiao Yan's back suddenly felt something, sniffed with her small nose, and then looked at Xiao Yan with a serious face.

"Master Xiao Yan! Be careful! I smell the scent of the snake people!"

Qing Lin's words startled Xiao Yan and the cloaked woman, and then they were very alert. Then they saw Qing Lin on Xiao Yan's back raised his little hand and pointed in a direction. In the eyes of the three people, a group of people slowly emerged from the edge of the end of the desert.

The upper body is similar to that of an adult human male, but the lower body has no legs, instead it has an extremely thick snake tail.

This is the snake people!

Xiao Yan also saw the snake people for the first time, and was slightly surprised. It was the first time he saw such a strange species.

(But as for the snake people, there should be no need to worry so much, right?)

Xiao Yan thought so, as long as they explained that they were members of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group, the snake people who had been favored by the Desert Iron Mercenary Group for the past six months should not make things too difficult for them.

However, Yao Chen in the ring did say something to pour cold water on Xiao Yan.

(Don't be careless, Xiao Yanzi.) Yao Chen denied Xiao Yan's idea and said lightly, (You humans will disagree with each other because of interests, but I don't think the snake people will be of one mind.)
