Starting as a supporting character in Doupo

Page 222

A warm feeling rose in Xiao Fan's heart, but it was immediately followed by a sense of malice.

"She...she stormed the Yunlan Sect, doesn't that mean they already know everything!?"

Xiao Fan belatedly realized that this meant You Ruo also knew about his relationship with Yun Yun. This gave Xiao Fan a bad feeling, and sure enough, not long after, his premonition came true.

In the backyard of the Xiao family, Zi Yan was kicked out by Xiao Fan and the others again.

The reason I say "again" is because after Zi Yan arrived in Wutan City, she often went out to do her old job, which was to go to the medicinal herb warehouse to pick out the "delicious" things she wanted.

However, she discovered that the medicinal herbs in Wutan City were not particularly rare, so she often went to the deep mountains around Wutan City to look for some medicinal herbs that no one had discovered yet.

In this small place where the strongest was only a Great Dou Master, Xiao Fan and the others had no worries about her safety and let her go.

Even Xiao Yan hasn't shown his face in the Xiao family's backyard yet. The reason for this is that Xiao Fan's misdeeds have been exposed.

At this moment, Xiao Fan was half-squatting in front of Yun Yun with a fawning expression, massaging Yun Yun's legs and constantly trying to please her. Yun Yun, on the other hand, sat calmly on the stone bench, leisurely drinking a cup of tea, her beautiful eyes slightly furrowed, as if she was not very satisfied with the tea.

"I was wrong, I was really wrong. Sister Yun, please forgive me."

Xiao Fan lowered his stance and kept saying nice things to Yun Yun. Who would have thought that when the incident at Yunlan Sect was exposed, Xiao Fan only thought about how to get past You Ruo, completely forgetting Yun Yun who was by his side. After learning that Medusa had stormed Yunlan Sect, Yun Yun directly asked Xiao Fan, "Why would Medusa stand up for the Xiao family?"

"Oh, you mean You Ruo..."

Without thinking, Xiao Fan immediately noticed a resentful gaze as soon as he opened his mouth. Only then did he realize what he had just said and could only sullenly remain silent.

"Oh, so you call her Youruo? That's quite intimate."

Yun Yun looked at Xiao Fan, who had a guilty expression, and felt a little annoyed, but what could she do when she had already made up her mind about him?

"Don't call me that so affectionately, we're not that close."

Yun Yun took a sip of her hot tea and glared at Xiao Fan. To be honest, she wasn't really upset; she just felt a little wronged. She thought something was hers alone, but suddenly found that someone else was taking it from her. No one would be happy about that.

Xiao Fan realized that although Yun Yun hadn't given in, her tone wasn't so cold, so he knew she wasn't really angry. He quickly got up and started massaging Yun Yun's shoulders and back, saying nice things to her, and finally managed to get past this fatal topic.

Yun Yun stopped pursuing the matter, and Xiao Fan was overjoyed, daring not to discuss it further.

The Xiao family had already prepared a series of measures to deal with the Yunlan Sect, and the relocation was basically ready. However, upon hearing the news that the Yunlan Sect had let the Xiao family go, the three elders couldn't help but ask Xiao Yan about it out of curiosity.

Xiao Yan only realized after hearing the three elders' words that the Xiao family did not know about Medusa and his senior brother's affair, but he did not say anything. After all, it was his senior brother's private matter, and it was not his place to talk about it.

So Xiao Yan simply told the three elders that Xiao Fan and Medusa had some connection.

Having received affirmation, the three elders excitedly ran downstairs. They were naturally very willing to stay in their homeland, after all, the Xiao family had been in Wutan City for so many years, and they were somewhat unwilling to abandon it all at once, as if they were being driven out.

Time flew by, and soon Xiao Fan and his group had been staying at the Xiao family's residence for about ten days.

The migration of the Serpent People has been fully underway. News of their migration from the Tagor Desert is spreading towards the Gama Empire with the passing mercenaries, and there are also occasional reports about where the Serpent People have gone.

With the deterrent power of You Ruodouzong, coupled with the prior declaration from the Jia Ma Empire's royal family, no cities along the way would send troops to stop them, and basically no one would be foolish enough to come and die, so the snake people's migration went very smoothly.

When Xiao Fan heard the news of the snake people's migration, he hesitated for a long time before finally telling Yun Yun about it.

"Yun'er, um, Ziyan and Youruo have a deep bond, I'd like to take her to see them..."

Zi Yan was a good excuse for Xiao Fan to go to the Snake People. Besides, Xiao Fan wasn't lying. After staying in Wutan City for so long, Zi Yan was already tired of it and kept pestering Xiao Fan, wanting him to take her to find her sister You Ruo.

Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, Yun Yun remained expressionless and simply said, "Alright, I'll go with you."

"what?"

Upon hearing that Yun Yun wanted to go to the Snake-People tribe with him, Xiao Fan scratched his head, a look of surprise flashing across his face. Yun Yun was very gentle and kind, so Xiao Fan had thought she would choose to stay in the Xiao family and wait for him.

But then he thought again that leaving her alone at the Xiao family's house and running away himself didn't seem appropriate.

"What, can't I go?"

Yun Yun glanced at Xiao Fan indifferently, but her eyes gradually turned cold.

"Uh, of course you can go."

Xiao Fan had no choice but to agree reluctantly. He told Xiao Yan, and the next day he took Zi Yan and Yun Yun and flew straight towards the Snake-People tribe.

On the vast plain, a large group of figures were walking into the distance. Their upper bodies were no different from those of humans, but their lower bodies were snake tails. If one or two of them were like this, it would not be uncommon in the Gama Empire. However, all of the figures here were like this, which was extremely rare in the Gama Empire.

They were the Serpent People heading towards the Monster Mountain Range. With the order of the Gama Empire, the cities along the way did not offer any obstacles. In fact, for a certain period of time, some roads were blocked to allow the Serpent People to pass through, in order to avoid contact between the Serpent People and humans and cause conflict.

Now that the Serpent People have a Dou Zong level expert, the Jia Ma Empire is no match for them at all, and they are naturally very wary of them. They have done everything they can to open the door to convenience for the Serpent People.

However, there were countless elderly snake people and children among the snake people, so their progress was not fast, and the migration procession was very long. In order to prevent accidents, You Ruo asked the leaders of the eight tribes to take charge along the way and look after each other, so that they could rush over in time if anything happened.

As one of the few Dou Huang powerhouses among the Snake-People, Yan Ci was placed at the very back of the group by You Ruo to prevent any accidents. Although the Jia Ma Empire had given orders that no one would stop him, there was still a fear that some suicidal individuals might rush up on their own.

At the forefront of the Snake-People migration caravan, Yue Mei and Yin Shi, two Battle Kings, led the way, ensuring basic safety. Even if there were any enemies, the two of them were enough to hold out until You Ruo arrived.

You Ruo flew in mid-air, looking down at the endless line of people, her eyes calm and her mind wandering elsewhere. If she weren't worried that her absence might cause problems with the snake people's migration, You Ruo would have already run off to drag that disobedient little man over.

Chapter 321 Go Sleep on the Floor

"Xiao Fan, are you sure this is the direction?"

In the sky, Zi Yan looked up at the desolate mountain range ahead and complained to Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan and Yun Yun stood calmly beside her.

"Based on the information we've received, we're pretty sure they'll be heading in this direction next."

Xiao Fan glanced ahead, then shook his head helplessly at Zi Yan.

“You’ve asked me this so many times along the way. If it weren’t for you always running off into the deep mountains and forests, we would have arrived long ago.”

After the three left Wutan City, Xiao Fan originally planned to head towards the direction of the snake people's migration. However, along the way, Zi Yan would always try to steal medicinal herbs guarded by magical beasts in order to get a bite to eat, which caused their route to gradually deviate from its original path.

Hearing Zi Yan complaining about him, Xiao Fan naturally retorted.

"Sister Yunyun, he was mean to me!"

After being yelled at by Xiao Fan, Zi Yan clenched her fists, but then remembered that she could no longer beat Xiao Fan, so she had to use her trump card again.

Previously, when she was with You Ruo, Zi Yan always relied on You Ruo's support and was not afraid of Xiao Fan at all. During this time, with You Ruo gone and Yun Yun's gentle nature, Zi Yan's goodwill towards her has greatly increased.

Since I can't beat you, I'll get your wife to teach you a lesson!

This was Zi Yan's little scheme, and Xiao Fan had no objection to it at all. He found that this actually strengthened the relationship between Zi Yan and Yun Yun, and even hoped that Zi Yan and Yun Yun would become more familiar with each other, so that when Yun Yun and You Ruo met, someone would be able to speak up for him.

"Alright, how old are you? Don't argue with a child."

Yun Yun rolled her eyes at Xiao Fan, then took Zi Yan's hand and looked into the distance. "Although we took a detour, we were generally on the right track. And the snake people's migration must have been a huge event; they probably haven't arrived here yet."

Yun Yun also adored the lively girl Zi Yan, so she took good care of her. Zi Yan might not have noticed Xiao Fan's feelings, but Yun Yun wasn't stupid. However, she didn't say it outright. Xiao Fan's plans were his own, and she didn't have any ill intentions towards Medusa. As for what the future held, she'd deal with it later.

However, she felt that if Xiao Fan went to see Medusa, she would have to stay in the Xiao family obediently, which would make her feel inferior to others. Although Yun Yun was gentle and did not like fighting, she inexplicably did not want others to look down on her.

Hearing Yun Yun's words, Xiao Fan nodded and then said to them, "Let's go. Once we cross this mountain range, we shouldn't be far from them."

Yun Yun and Zi Yan nodded upon hearing this. After crossing the mountain range, they flew for a short while before a long black line appeared on the horizon, which was the migrating caravan of the Snake People.

"I see them, it really is them."

Looking at the snake-people in the distance, Zi Yan's eyes flashed with excitement and curiosity. She was excited because she was about to see her sister You Ruo, whom she had not seen for a long time, and curious about the snake-people led by You Ruo.

Swish!

When they appeared in mid-air, the snake-people on the ground also noticed them. They had already been cleared out by the Gama Empire along the way, so they were naturally curious about the human powerhouses who had appeared.

Two figures flew over from a distance, and Xiao Fan recognized them upon closer inspection.

Yue Mei and Yin Shi also noticed the appearance of powerful human beings, which is why they rushed over immediately. After all, they were dispersed to different parts of the team to prevent any accidents.

However, when they saw that one of them was Xiao Fan, their worries subsided. After all, they knew about Xiao Fan's relationship with the Queen, so she naturally wouldn't do anything to the snake people.

"Yun Yun!"

However, when Yin Shi's gaze fell upon the figure beside Xiao Fan, he exclaimed in surprise.

The conflict between the Serpent Clan and the Gama Empire goes without saying. They are also very familiar with the strong among humans, so Yin Shi was quite surprised when he saw Yun Yun. However, he then remembered the rumors that had recently spread in the Gama Empire, so Yin Shi was not surprised.

"It's rare that Elder Yin Shi still remembers me."

Yun Yun also remembered this leader of the snake-people race. After all, she had fought him two years ago when she went to the snake-people race to seize the strange fire, so he was not unfamiliar with her.

Yue Mei's gaze swept curiously over Yun Yun. They had all heard the rumors circulating in the Jia Ma Empire, and naturally knew about Xiao Fan's intrusion into the Yunlan Sect to steal the bride. Although Yun Yun was also very beautiful, Yue Mei still felt that her Queen was the most stunning. She wondered what had gotten into Xiao Fan that he dared to flirt with other women even with the Queen by his side. He would be in for a world of hurt.

"I presume that you, young friend Xiao Fan, are here to see Her Majesty the Queen? She is at the back; you'll see her if you follow the group to the back. We are also responsible for the relocation of the tribe, so we won't be able to entertain you any longer. Please forgive us."

Yin Shi chuckled and said something to Xiao Fan and the others, then he and Yue Mei returned to the snake-people. As for the matter between Xiao Fan and the Queen, Yin Shi was an old and shrewd man, and he decided to let them worry about it themselves.

Although Yue Mei wanted to say something, at Yin Shi's prompting, she ultimately shook her head and went to organize her clansmen to migrate.

Having learned of You Ruo's whereabouts, Xiao Fan, along with Zi Yan and Yun Yun, headed towards the rear of the Snake-People tribe. Before long, they sensed a familiar aura.

When Xiao Fan sensed You Ruo's presence, You Ruo naturally noticed them as well.

In a flash, he appeared in front of Xiao Fan and the others.

You Ruo's beautiful eyes swept over Xiao Fan without lingering for a moment, then landed on Yun Yun. Yun Yun was equally unceremonious, observing Queen Medusa in mid-air with great interest.

Both of them had heard of each other, and two years ago, when they were fighting for the Strange Flame, You Ruo's clone was exposed by Yun Yun, which could be considered their first encounter.

"Sister Youruo!"

When Zi Yan saw You Ruo appear, she shouted excitedly and rushed towards You Ruo. You Ruo caught Zi Yan, patted her head, and missed the little girl a bit after not seeing her for so long.

Distracted by Zi Yan, Youruo glanced at Yun Yun again and could only nod slightly without saying anything more. She then led them to a nearby hilltop.

Yun Yun and Zi Yan followed her down, and just as Xiao Fan was about to follow, a cold voice rang out.

"Leave far away!"
