Chapter 87: Foolish Individuals

At the edge of the cliff, Xiao Yixian gently stroked Xiao Lan while looking at Xiao Yan, who had his hands clasped together in a sincere gesture, paying his respects to the row of makeshift graves in front of him. She was speechless.

The graves contained the bodies of the mercenaries that Xiao Yan had killed in the cave, and Xiao Yan had personally dug the pits.

You killed them, and then you personally buried them, even taking the time to pay your respects at the graves. If someone didnt know better, they would think you were some benevolent passerby, even though you didnt even leave them with their heads.

Xiao Yixian internally ridiculed the situation, but for some reason, she found it strangely normal when it came to Xiao Yans actions.

Is my brain malfunctioning as well?

Xiao Yixian massaged her temples, feeling a headache coming on. Honestly, she would probably only encounter someone as peculiar as Xiao Yan once in her lifetime.

After the tribute, Xiao Yan turned around, and Xiao Yixian hugged her arms, looking at him with helplessness.

They were planning to kill you earlier, and yet you kindly made gravestones for them.

The mistakes they made in their lives dont need to follow them in death.

Xiao Yan glanced at the row of graves, speaking in such a manner that left Xiao Yixian completely speechless.

Well, youre righteous. I can never do that.

So, where are you going next?

Xiao Yixian asked, and Xiao Yan took out the map that Boss Yao had given him from his pocket.

I need to gather the medicinal herbs that Boss Yao entrusted to me. There are patients in need of them.

Alright, lets go. Ill take you there.

Xiao Yixian casually flicked her head, indicating for Xiao Yan to join her on Xiao Lan.

After their recent interaction, Xiao Yixian fully believed in Xiao Yans words. He truly accepted Boss Yaos deal to gather medicinal herbs in the Magic Beast Mountain Range, and it wasnt just an excuse to protect himself.

Xiao Yixian was convinced that if even someone like Xiao Yan would lie, then the word honesty wouldnt exist on this continent.

Is it just the two of us? Xiao Yan furrowed his brow slightly at Xiao Yixians words. Wont it be too dangerous with all the second-tier Magical Beasts around?

Xiao Yixian narrowed her eyes and stared at Xiao Yan.

This guys brain really doesnt function properly. He actually thinks those second-tier Magical Beasts would be a trouble for him.

Immediately, Xiao Yixian made up her mind and lightly tapped Xiao Lans head.

Xiao Lan, lets go over there

Before Xiao Yixian could finish her sentence, a sound came from the front of the forest. Xiao Yixian suddenly focused her gaze, staring at the direction where the sound came from.

After a while, Xiao Yans familiar figure slowly appeared within Xiao Yixians line of sight, and Xiao Yixian let out a deep sigh of relief.

Indeed, her worries were unnecessary.

With Xiao Yans strength, he could easily handle second-tier Magical Beasts, let alone third-tier ones.

Did you get it?

Xiao Yixian looked at Xiao Yan and asked softly. Xiao Yan nodded, his expression relaxed.

Yes, I got it. It wasnt too difficult. Xiao Yan scratched his face casually. But there werent any second-tier Magical Beasts around the medicinal herbs, just some little wolf cubs. It wasnt as challenging as Boss Yao described.

Xiao Yixian was once again speechless.

She had heard the wolf howls clearly just now. They were undoubtedly the howls of second-tier Magical Beasts, the Gold Devouring Wolves. Moreover, Gold Devouring Wolves were social creatures, with each pack consisting of at least ten members.

In other words, Xiao Yan managed to retrieve the medicinal herbs calmly despite facing at least ten second-tier Magical Beasts. Not to mention getting injured, even his clothes only had a few wrinkles.

Sigh

Xiao Yixian sighed heavily, resting her head on Xiao Lans head, looking at Xiao Yan with a mixture of emotions. This left Xiao Yan raising an eyebrow in confusion.

Whats wrong? Why the sudden sigh?

Its nothing, dont mind me. Xiao Yixian waved her hand lightly, propping her chin with her fair wrist. She spoke in a calm tone, Its just that for the first time, I realized that the stupidity of certain individuals can truly exceed ones imagination.

Certain individuals? Are you referring to Mu Li and the others?

Xiao Yan was puzzled, his initial reaction was Mu Li and the mercenaries he buried.

If it were only them, it would be fine, Xiao Yixian shrugged, Im talking about individuals even more foolish than them.

Foolish to the point of being maddening~

Xiao Yixian said this, and in her eyes as she looked at Xiao Yan, an unconscious gentle smile appeared.

That person who was so foolish would never know in this lifetime who she was referring to.
