Tuoba Ling was stunned for a moment: "It probably won't be."

"It should be." Lian Jin shook his head, "They were passing by Fanxing City and going north. There was something very important. I stayed there for the past few days to drink our wedding banquet. Now it is very likely that they have left." Lian Jin knew Mu Yan's personality. She could delay so many days to drink Lian Jin's wedding banquet, but now she has drunk the wedding banquet, so she will not waste time. After all, it is very important to find martial arts secrets for Xiao Xinghan. Practice is a long process over time and must start as soon as possible.

"Then let's go and have a look. Maybe we can say goodbye to them." Tuoba Ling said as he stood up.

"No need to go." Mo Qingchen flew in through the window and said with annoyance, "I still want to have another drink with my master today, but I didn't expect them to leave as soon as they said they could! Dugu just looked for me, and they had been away for most of the time, and they couldn't catch up!"

Lian Jin shook his head and laughed: "I'm not very surprised."

"Forget it, they will pass by here anyway when they come back. I hope their trip will go smoothly." Mo Qingchen said helplessly. Even though he became the prime minister of Beimo Kingdom, in his heart, he still thought that he was Mu Yan's younger brother and Xiao Xinghan's friend.

The next day, Qi Yun took Qi Yuchan and Ye Chonghua to leave Fanxing City together and set out on the way back to Bixue Villa.

Fanxing City is still as calm as before, and the beautiful wedding of the new empress of the Beimo Kingdom and her husband, Prince Qinglian, and the two of them are spreading all over the world at an extremely fast speed.

Leiyang City, Tianli Kingdom.

Xiao Yuesheng pretended to be Xiao Xinghan and was ordered to train the officials of the Beimo Kingdom. He was very dedicated and responsible, which made Li Xiaotian very satisfied. He lived a comfortable life in the Xiaowang Mansion. He went to Xiao Shangshu Mansion to have breakfast with Xiao Yuanqi and Ning Ruyan early every day, and then rode his horse to the military camp. He came back in the evening and then went to Xiao Shangshu Mansion to have dinner. When he had time, he taught Tuoba Yan's martial arts and medical skills. Occasionally, he learned some iron-making skills from several old men of the Cang clan. Although they were inevitably scolded by those old men, they did not refuse to teach their abilities to Xiao Yuesheng.

As the days passed day by day, the only thing Xiao Yuesheng felt was that his younger brother Xing'er and his unscrupulous younger brothers and sisters were not at home, and the fun of life was reduced a lot. No one criticized him for his life.

At night that day, Xiao Yuesheng took Tuoba Yan to eat a full meal at the Xiao Shangshu Mansion, carried Tuoba Yan back to the Xiao Prince's Mansion in the dark.

"Young Master Xiao, this is a letter sent back by the princess." As soon as he entered the Xiao Palace, a sword dragon guard handed Xiao Yuesheng an unopened letter.

Xiao Yuesheng and Tuoba Yan's eyes lit up. When they returned to the room, Xiao Yuesheng couldn't wait to open the letter. Tuoba Yan came over and saw: "What did you say? Are you going to come back with your mother and father?"

"It shouldn't be back for a while. This is the letter they wrote to me after they arrived in Fanxing City." Xiao Yuesheng looked down and his expression became a little strange. After reading a letter soon, Xiao Yuesheng didn't care about Tuoba Yan and snatched the letter, sat there and said quietly, "A beautiful little girl with a round face and likes to eat chicken legs?"

"Uncle, I'm so worried about your marriage!" Tuoba Yan carefully read the entire letter and came to such a conclusion.

"I haven't seen that little girl before, why do I feel that my younger brother and sister have already decided on my marriage?" Xiao Yuesheng said speechlessly.

"Uncle, if my mother doesn't worry, when will you get married? I want to show this letter to my grandfather and grandmother, and they will definitely be very happy!" Tuoba Yan smiled and folded the letter and put it away.

"Farewell, if we don't like each other after meeting, wouldn't that be embarrassing? Your grandfather and grandmother will definitely be disappointed at that time." Xiao Yuesheng shook his head.

"Are you questioning your mother's eyes? My mother said it is very suitable, so it must be very suitable. This matter is decided!" Tuoba Yan said with a smile.

Xiao Yuesheng looked at the sky speechlessly: "Why do you feel like you're sold by your younger brother and sister? I'm a little happy and want to count the money for her..."

In mid-August, Xiao Xinghan and Mu Yan had already left Fanxing City very far and walked into a desolate desert.

At noon that day, the sun was very poisonous. Xiao Xinghan and Mu Yan were wearing scarves on their faces, only a pair of eyes were exposed outside to avoid being sunburned. They led the horse, walked forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and the ten sword dragon guards were divided into several groups to find the source of water.

Although the northern desert has large areas of desert and barren land, there are countless oasis in it, and cities of all sizes are built near the water source, otherwise the people would not be able to survive. The north of the Star City is no longer inhabited because it is a place that is not suitable for living.

Seeing that the two originally divine BMWs were almost unable to walk, Xiao Xinghan and Mu Yan found a sand dune that sheltered from the wind and stopped to rest.

"It won't work." Mu Yan gently stroked the head of the horse lying on the ground, frowned slightly, "When you go north, the environment will only be worse. You can't ride a horse. You need to drink a lot of water, otherwise there will be only a dead end. Why not wait for them to come back and let the two of us send our horse back to Fanxing City."

Xiao Xinghan pulled off Bu Qian on his face, his forehead was covered with sweat, and nodded slightly and said, "Okay."

"August and September are the period of frequent sandstorms. If we find the water source today, we will get as much water as possible. It is best not to disperse our actions again." Mu Yan frowned and raised her hand to wipe the sweat on her forehead.

Xiao Xinghan took down a red flag on the horse's back, walked to the highest point of the sand dune, and inserted it on it so that the Stegosaurus guards who were looking for water could find them.

It was not until sunset that the Stegosaurus guards who went to find water came back one after another. Seeing that they were all fine, Mu Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

After the sun sets, the temperature in the desert drops sharply, and it will even be colder than in winter by midnight. However, Mu Yan has lived for two lifetimes after all. She also had experiences in desert hiking in her previous life, and she still has some experiences. Before they came, Tuoba Shiyi specially found an old man who knew the desert very well, asked many questions, and wrote them a note.

So they carried very thick cold-proof clothes with them, and the Stegosaurus guards also had them. Now everyone put on thick clothes. The two Stegosaurus guards who found the water during the day led the way to the depths of the desert according to the marks they left.

Xiao Xinghan insisted on carrying Mu Yan on his back and walked until midnight before finally seeing a very small oasis, a pool emitting a dark light in the night.

"I have tested it according to the method taught by my wife, and it is not poisonous." said a Stegosaurus Guard.

Xiao Xinghan put Mu Yan down, and the two Stegosaurus guards took off the tent on the horse's back, and chose a place to shelter from the wind to set up the tent. Some Stegosaurus guards were making fire, some were taking water, and some were drinking horses.

The night sky in the desert is extremely beautiful, and the stars are as low as if they can be picked. Today is fifteen, but without the moon, Mu Yan has already eaten Xuanhuang Pill, because it is not realistic for her to survive the period of weakness in such an environment. The two of them rested in the tent, and the Stegosaurus each found a place to take a nap and took turns to watch the wind.

Before dawn, the group packed their luggage and prepared to go on the road again, because it wouldn't be so hot when it was about to leave early, and they couldn't move forward at the hottest time at noon and needed to find a place to rest.

Xiao Xinghan arranged four of the Stegosaurus guards to return to Fanxing City with two horses, while the other six followed them on.

At noon the next day, when the sun was the most vicious, Mu Yan felt a strange wind blowing suddenly, but there was no feeling of comfort, and her expression immediately changed.

"There may be a sandstorm, northwest direction." Xiao Xinghan frowned, and before he finished speaking, he pulled Mu Yan up. When they were staying in Fanxing City, they specifically learned about the signs of the sandstorm. The weather was not right now.

The group quickly stood up, Mu Yan flew up with Xiao Xinghan and headed for the fastest speed in one direction. Six sword dragon guards followed Mu Yan's pace with their luggage on their backs.

Not long after, a Stegosaurus guard turned around and saw the yellow sand behind him swelling with the wind. His expression changed slightly, his steps stopped, and he fell behind. He heard Mu Yan's whisper: "Don't live anymore, go quickly!"

The eight people finally avoided the sandstorm, but they also ended up in a very embarrassing state, covered in sand.

"Remember, you must be careful all the time next, otherwise there will be no return!" Mu Yan said coldly at the six sword dragon guards.

"Yes, princess!" said the six sword dragon guards in unison. The sword dragon guard who was almost one step behind today looked a little ashamed and secretly swore in his heart that he must not be careless next.

"Why did the ancestors of the Divine Soldier build their treasure house in this ghost place?" Mu Yan didn't understand this. If there is really a legendary shocking treasure, it will take a lot of manpower to transport it to the depths of this desert, so why don't you be afraid that this place will be leaked?

Xiao Xinghan saw Mu Yan's thoughts and said lightly: "To keep it confidential, all the people involved in the construction of the treasure house and the transportation of treasures are probably buried in the treasure house forever."

Mu Yan felt a little deeper, but she could not refute Xiao Xinghan's words. The people in power were always killed and seized. The last sect leader of the Divine Sect was obviously not an exception. His behavior made the treasure of the Divine Sect not fall into the hands of outsiders for a hundred years, but which one is more important than the lives of those innocent people who died in the past? This question does not need an answer, because things have come to this point and cannot be pursued in the past.

"It will take five or six days to look at the map. If there is another sandstorm, it will be longer." Mu Yan sighed slightly. The treasure is naturally difficult to find. She was mentally prepared, but the current situation still makes her feel a little uneasy. I hope the road will go smoothly in the future!

Three more days later, although I couldn't walk fast in the desert, I didn't encounter the sandstorm that day again, and it was quite smooth.

On this day, the six sword dragon guards were divided into two groups and went out again to find the water source. Until dark, only three came back, and the other three disappeared.

"I told them that no matter how hard I can find it, I must come back before dark." Mu Yan frowned.

"Madam, let's look for the direction they left." said a Stegosaurus Guard.

"Go together." Xiao Xinghan's expression was slightly dark. Now there are only the five of them left and they can no longer act separately.

"Don't carry me, I'm OK." Mu Yan refused Xiao Xinghan and carried her on her back. "If you are tired, say it, let them take turns carrying you on your back." Now, Xiao Xinghan is the weakest in the entire team.

Xiao Xinghan shook his head and grabbed Mu Yan's hand: "Let's go."

The five people walked in the night, and the speed was slower than during the day. However, there was no wind on this day, and the marks left by the three people on the ground could still be seen. It was originally intended to facilitate them to find them back, but now Mu Yan and the others are just looking for them to follow the marks.

The place where the mark disappeared was an extremely high sand dune. The five people climbed over the sand dune with some difficulty and leaned on the top of the high, all of whom were a little surprised, because there was a large oasis below, and this was not a surprise to them. What surprised them was that there was a house by the lake below, with lights on at this time. There were people living here!

"Madam, go and inquire." A Stegosaurus volunteered.

"You two, go together." Mu Yan pointed to the two Stegosaurus Guards.

Watching the two Stegosaurus guards slide down from the sand dunes and approaching the house with lights from two different directions, Mu Yan narrowed her eyes slightly.

Next, no sound came out, and the two sword dragon guards did not come out again.

The last remaining Stegosaurus guard was Zhou Zheng who Mu Yan had always admired. He frowned slightly and said, "Madam, it's safer to wait and see." There must be people in that house, and there is something strange. The five Stegosaurus guards may have been arrested or killed. They can't act rashly anymore.

"You stay and I'll go and see." Mu Yan said coldly. She couldn't wait here. If the five people were not dead yet, because of their waiting, they would be killed on this night.

Xiao Xinghan reached out and was about to grab Mu Yan. He paused his hand, his eyes dimmed, and his voice said in a low voice: "Be careful."

"Madam, let me go, I will be cautious." Zhou Zheng said.

"You stay to protect the prince." Mu Yan said without any doubt, and flew down and approached the house.

Instead of secretly approaching the house like the Sword Dragon Guard, Mu Yan flew directly onto the roof and whispered loudly: "I wonder which senior is practicing here? You are polite here!"

"Where did the young boy come from? Arrogant!" The next moment, a big hole broke directly on the top of the house, and a black shadow flew out from below, waved his palm and hit Mu Yan!

Mu Yan's expression changed slightly and she hurriedly dodged because this man's martial arts skills were too strong, and Mu Yan was not his opponent now.

The two of them quickly fought each other, and Mu Yan felt a lot of pressure, but she hesitated for a moment and did not choose to use a hidden weapon because she didn't know what the person was. She was fighting with a master and using a hidden weapon rashly could easily cause the other party's disgust, causing the battle that might have been able to quickly calm down and reconciliation to an uncontrollable level.

Mu Yan's expression was slightly condensed and she began to fight the man seriously. Her Netherworld Divine Art is about to enter the advanced level, and her strength should not be underestimated. Although the pressure is not small, she will not be able to fight back.

The night was dark and the air was icy. Mu Yan was wrapped tightly, looking like a teenager. The man was bare-handed and wore only a torn ragged shirt, his arms and calves were exposed, and his feet were wearing a pair of tattered straw sandals, which could fall down at any time.

On the sand dune, Xiao Xinghan, who was lying there, stared at the battle below.

Zhou Zheng asked, "Prince, do you need to help the princess?"

"Don't go for the time being." Xiao Xinghan shook his head. The man was too strong. Zhou Zheng went over. With his strength, he was just a death sentence.

Mu Yan and the man fought for an entire time, and the man's offensive became more and more fierce. Mu Yan had already struggled to support him, but she had no intention of retreating.

The man stretched out his hand and approached Mu Yan with a strange pace, holding Mu Yan's shoulder!

Mu Yan's expression darkened, she had no doubt at all. As long as this person pinched her hard, her shoulders would break!

"Boy, how old are you?" The man looked at Mu Yan, suddenly vented the force in his hand, and landed on the ground with Mu Yan, looking at Mu Yan and asked coldly.

As he got closer, Mu Yan found that the man was not old. Although his voice was a little hoarse, he looked like he was only in his forties or fifties, and he was still a middle-aged man. He was dark-skinned, tall and strong, and his eyes were like copper bells, and he looked a bit ferocious.

"Eighteen." Mu Yan said weakly.

"I have such skills at the age of eighteen, and I have good talent. Those five are your slaves?" The middle-aged man looked at Mu Yan and asked coldly.

"That's right." Mu Yan nodded slightly, "I wonder if they are still alive?"

"Hmph! Sneaky!" the middle-aged man snorted coldly and said, "I'm not dead yet. I originally planned to dry them into jerky tomorrow!"

"Thank you for not killing me," Mu Yan said obediently.

The middle-aged man looked at Mu Yan with deep eyes, and his hand holding Mu Yan's shoulder still did not let go: "Say, what does it have to do with the Divine Soldier Sect?"

Mu Yan blinked: "It's okay."
