The Arrogant Alchemist

Chapter 371 I'm Sorry I Didn't Protect You Well (4)
With a "buzz", Yun Ran felt that his head was a little dizzy. It was a bit shocking to say such words from a mouth that had always been reticent and cold.Moreover, hasn't he always, always helped and protected her with practical actions?
However, what is going on with this sweet, joyful mood that is about to fly in the bottom of my heart?

There was no new sound coming from above the head, the man just silently hugged the girl who was only as high as his shoulders, and protected her in front of his chest, like a treasure, with a strong posture that would not allow others to covet and hurt her.It was like a ferocious beast defending its own territory.

The girl's tense body also relaxed, and she lay quietly in the gentle embrace, so comfortable that she could close her eyes and sleep without worrying about anything.

In fact, after fighting for a long time, she really wanted to sleep like this.

However, when she was half asleep and half awake, she suddenly heard two embarrassing coughs, which woke her up like thunder.

Duanmujian stared at Xie Yuchen, who had been shaken into the distance by the shock of the battle, and finally turned back, his indifferent eyes seemed to be a little more icy.

But Yun Ran said "Ah!" in embarrassment, and as soon as she pushed Duanmujian, she wanted to slip out, but the other party firmly grabbed her hand and refused to let her leave.

Xie Yuchen glanced at Yunran's grasped hand amusedly and awkwardly, and swept his eyes back and forth between the two of them, full of narrow smiles.

"Ahem, Yuchen didn't intend to disturb the second sister, and...sister...husband." The smiling eyes and tone made Yun Ran's face turn red.

"Brother Yuchen, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Looking at the anxious and angry girl, Xie Yuchen couldn't help but let out a "puchi" laugh, "Although I've disturbed you two, it's not easy to stay here for a long time. Let's leave the Hengduan Mountains as soon as possible. I'm afraid this place will collapse soon."

As he said that, the ground under Xie Yuchen's feet swayed a few more times. Looking at Xie Yuchen who was standing unsteadily, Yun Ran noticed that he hadn't noticed any abnormalities in this area before, only because Duanmu Jianshi launched his martial arts. Air space, protecting her inside.

"Ah!" A loud roar came from the sky, and it stopped abruptly, and with that roar, the entire mountain range shook even more violently.

The three of them didn't hesitate any longer, and quickly rushed towards Lin'an.

The Hengduan Mountain Range had already destroyed half of the mountain range under the explosive energy of Yaoding and the furious attack of Duanmujian, and then the fight between the two paladins Wu He and Le Zhengxiu on the other side affected half of the mountain range. mountains.

In the end, after Le Zhengxiu blew himself up, the entire mountain range collapsed with a "crash".

Looking at the billowing smoke and dust behind him, and the fleeing monsters, Yun Ran, who finally ran to the safe area, dared to take a breath. When he turned around, he saw Xie Yuchen staring straight at the magic staff in his hand .

"Brother, it should be the precious staff of the Xie family. I took it back from Xie Wuyou's hand. Here it is." Yun Ran handed the staff to Xie Yuchen, but saw that he backed away and waved his hands again and again, refusing to take it.

"The vision just now should be caused by you getting the staff to recognize the master. Xiaoran, don't you feel that you have a connection with this staff?" Xie Yuchen said seriously.

Yunran thought about it, shook his head, and nodded again, "I didn't have a strong reaction with this staff. But when it suddenly shone just now, I felt a lot of information flooded into my mind. And , "A smile appeared on her face, "My light system secret technique has finally awakened just now."

Originally, she thought that this body did not have light-type secret arts, but she did not expect that the moment the information in the staff poured in, the secret arts that had been dormant were finally activated, and she definitely did not think of a rare secret art.

"Amplification of the effect of light-type spells!" Xie Yuchen exclaimed, and excitedly grabbed Yun Ran's hand, the joy in his eyes seemed to be the one who got the secret spell.

"Yes, I just tried it, and now I can increase the attack power of the light system by about ten times." The girl smiled, "That's why I can repel Xie Wuyou so easily."

At the mention of this name, Xie Yuchen let out a cold snort, "The traitor of the Xie family, please die!"

"Brother seems to know a little about Xie Wuyou? Old Xie knows very little about him."

Glancing at the magic stick in Yunran's hand, Xie Yuchen said silently, "Only the ancestors, the Patriarch Li Xie and his heirs know about these things. Since Xiaoran got the magic stick, I don't think my father will blame me." Tell you."

He glanced at Duanmujian standing behind Yunran like a pillar, and suddenly stopped talking.

Yun Ran raised her head and smiled at the man behind her.Duanmujian was silent for a while, and stepped back a few steps as if reluctantly, a sword light rose from his body, forming a sky of sword energy under the night sky, covering the girl in front of him, as if he was not at ease if he took a few steps away from her.

The corner of Xie Yuchen's mouth couldn't help but twitched into a smile, and he looked at Yunran with burning eyes, which made her look away in embarrassment, "Brother! Tell me quickly."

The smile on your son's face disappeared in an instant, and his expression took on a bit of seriousness and hidden anger, "Xie Wuyou is the father of the ancestor, and the adopted son of the head of the Xie family does not have the blood of the Xie family. After my father brought him back to Guzhong, he has been raising him as his own son."

"We don't know exactly what happened afterwards. It seems that Xie Wuyou used some vicious and evil methods when refining the medicine to take a shortcut. The ancestor found out and severely reprimanded him. He left Xie's house. Many years later, when the Xie family almost forgot that there was such a person, he came back. At that time, he was already a holy warlock. And the ancestor was already a holy warlock."

"He asked the ancestor to compete, and he didn't know what he gambled on. In the end, he lost. It is said that the ancestor once said that the bet does not count. But he was so angry that he killed the previous patriarch, took away the patriarch's token, the magic stick, and escaped. Four Seasons Valley. The ancestor chased them out, and the two fought outside the city of Zezhou for three days and three nights. In the end, Xie Wuyou lost, was severely injured by the ancestor, and escaped from Zezhou. The ancestor said that if he If he dared to set foot on Zezhou, he would definitely take his life. But at the same time, that person took away the Illusionary Profound Light Rod, and the succeeding Patriarch, in grief and indignation, claimed that whoever could get back the Illusive Profound Light Rod would be the head of the Xie family."

"What!" Hearing this, Yun Ran couldn't help exclaiming, and suddenly felt that the staff in his hand became hot.

Xie Yuchen smiled and said, "So sister Yunran, you have to protect the staff well."

Yun Ran stuffed the staff into Xie Yuchen's arms, and said seriously, "I don't care, you are the heir of the Xie family. I will bring you this staff back to the Xie family. I don't want it anymore."

Xie Yuchen pushed the staff away angrily and amusedly, "Actually, I think you are quite suitable to be the head of the family. Although I have been trained to be the head of the family since I was a child, Chen believes that he still does not have the ability to protect the Xie family..."
