Chapter 281 Heading to the Black Corner Domain
"I want to, too! But I've been unconscious for so long, and the inner courtyard assessment will begin today. If I miss it, a year's efforts will be wasted." Xiao Yan spread his hands and said.
"It seems that the internal examination of Canaan College is indeed less than a month away. Even if you hurry as fast as you can, you can only barely catch up." Yun Yun nodded, and then said: "Take Yanran with you! Your injury is not fully healed yet, and I will feel more at ease with her taking care of you along the way!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yan’s eyes widened immediately and looked at Nalan Yanran.
Nalan Yanran had been standing there like a telephone pole, making it impossible for Xiao Yan to get intimate with Yun Yun, but she just refused to leave, and Xiao Yan had no choice.
"The rules of Canaan Academy are very strict. Even if I bring her with me, she can't get in." Xiao Yan shook his head. What a joke! If he brought Nalan Yanran with him, Xun'er would really tear Xiao Yan to pieces.
"But..." Yun Yun stroked her forehead, feeling a little embarrassed.
Nalan Yanran has a very stubborn personality. Once she makes a decision, no one can change it even with ten oxen. If Xiao Yan doesn't accompany her, who knows what Nalan Yanran will do!
"The oath has been made. If you don't take me with you, I will have no choice but to die!" Nalan Yanran said in a firm tone.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan suddenly felt a headache. He didn't care whether Nalan Yanran lived or died, but if Nalan Yanran really died, Yun Yun would feel guilty for the rest of her life. In this case, she would definitely refuse to be with Xiao Yan.
"Do you really have to be a maid?" Xiao Yan looked at Nalan Yanran, wanting to know her determination.
"I have to do it! If you don't, you will die!" Nalan Yanran was as determined as if she had eaten a weight.
"Okay! I'll give you one year. After one year, if you break through to the Dou Wang level, you must go to the Black Horn Region and wait for me. It's not enough to just break through to the Dou Wang level. You must survive three moves under my hands, otherwise you are not qualified to be my maid. Of course, the decision is in your hands. You can choose to give up. This bottle of pills is equivalent to my compensation to you!" Xiao Yan threw a bottle of pills to Nalan Yanran and said with a serious face.
Nalan Yanran took the small jade bottle thrown by Xiao Yan, her expression was a little complicated. What Xiao Yan said was true. Her current strength was indeed not good enough and she couldn't even take one move from Xiao Yan.
But will it be possible after one year? Maybe the gap will be even bigger!
"Forget it. If he refuses to accept it after a year, I will die in front of him!" Nalan Yanran sighed and turned away.
"Alas! If I hadn't asked Nalan Yanran to cancel the engagement, things wouldn't have turned out like this!" Yun Yun sighed and said.
"You are always like this, putting all the responsibility on yourself. Even if you don't agree, she will cancel the engagement as long as she wants." Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly and said.
"Yanran, you have been looked down upon a lot in the past three years. You wanted to avenge yourself, but ended up like this. You saved her grandfather, so she must have had a crush on you at the time. But just when she had developed a crush on you, she found out that you were Xiao Yan, and then there was our relationship. I think she is also confused now and doesn't know what to do. She is so determined to be your maid, which is also a way of escaping. You shouldn't have rejected her." Yun Yun said softly.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan scratched his head. He also knew that Nalan Yanran’s current situation was not good. Although it was not shameful to lose to Xiao Yan, it was difficult for him to get over the hurdle in his heart.
Nalan Yanran's proud character was destroyed beyond recognition by Xiao Yan, and now she actually wants to become a lowly maid.
"I'll just give her some time to think about it. If she really insists on doing it, I'll just give her some slack at the most!" Xiao Yan said helplessly.
"You!" Yun Yun shook her head helplessly, looked at the mountains in the distance, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I think Yanran might have fallen in love with you!"
"How is this possible! Don't be kidding! It's almost as if she hates me!" Xiao Yan was shocked when he heard Yun Yun's words.
"Haha, what's impossible? In the past three years, your name has been engraved into Yanran's bones. You are probably the only one left in her mind! She did hate you before, but when the hatred fades, what do you think will happen?" Yun Yun said with a faint smile. "It shouldn't be possible, right?" Xiao Yan was also a little uncertain at this moment.
"Although Yanran is a little arrogant, she is a good child. I watched her grow up. If anything happens to her, I will not forgive you!" Yun Yun rolled her eyes and left, leaving Xiao Yan disheveled in the wind.
"I'm such a scumbag, how come I'm still so popular!" Xiao Yan actually felt that he was a scumbag, but he couldn't be considered a scumbag, he was just a little fickle. After all, Xiao Yan had never played with people's feelings.
Xiao Yan followed the location given by Yun Yun and met the Xiao family's eldest elder. He learned from the eldest elder that Xiao Zhan was taken away on the day they were arrested.
After failing to learn anything useful from the Great Elder, Xiao Yan went to the palace again, inquired about some situations from Yao Ye, instructed her on some things, and then set off for Canaan College.
The Gama Empire is very far away from Canaan College. It takes about a year to walk there, and even if you ride a flying beast, it will take three months.
It stands to reason that Xiao Yan would not be able to reach Canaan College within a month, but Hei Yu is now close to a fifth-level magical beast, and his flying speed is faster than that of an ordinary Dou Huang. If he flies at full speed, he can reach Canaan College in just twenty days.
However, not all places along the way can be flown, such as the Black Horn Region.
The "Black Horn Region" got its name because of its chaos. It is an area built outside Canaan College and is a paradise for criminals.
In the Black Horn Region, as long as you have the strength, you can do whatever you want. There are no rules, no constraints. You can kill people in the street, rob in the street, and do that kind of thing in the street. No one will blame you for anything. They will only comment on whether your killing methods and postures are good or not.
As for the so-called kindness, I advise you to throw it all into the stinking ditch!
If you don't throw your kindness into the gutter, you will be thrown into the gutter yourself.
Xiao Yan had a pass and could fly freely in the Jia Ma Empire. It took him less than five days to pass through Daling City and arrive at the Black Domain Plain.
The Black Domain Plain is endless. As far as the eye can see, it is all dark and filled with an irritating atmosphere. Black storms often appear.
Xiao Yan sat on Hei Yu's back and took out the map of the Black Domain Plain, but after looking at it for a long time, he still didn't know which way to go.
The Black Domain Plain is so vast that if you fly recklessly, you probably won’t be able to reach Canaan College in a year.
Xiao Yan had no choice but to control Black Feather to fly low, trying to find a tribe, ask for directions, and get a map.
After searching for a long time, a small black dot finally appeared in Xiao Yan's field of vision.
Xiao Yan was not so showy as to ride Black Feather directly into the tribe. There were many powerful people in the Black Horn Region. If Xiao Yan's soul was not damaged, there was no need to worry about it. It was better to keep a low profile now. After all, it would be bad if he was surrounded and killed.
This place is also an area where Soul Palace activities are frequent. Yao Lao is still in soul state at this time, so Xiao Yan does not want to cause too much trouble.
Getting off Hei Yu's back, Xiao Yan walked to the small tribe. Although the black spot was magnified in Xiao Yan's eyes, Xiao Yan could also see the appearance of this small tribe clearly.
