Chapter 198 Heading to Xiyue Country

Xiao Chuhan saw Lan Xi's firm attitude. He knew Lan Xi's character very well and knew that once Lan Xi made up her mind, she would not change it easily. After careful consideration, Xiao Chuhan finally decided to take Lan Xi with him to Xiyue Country.

In this way, Lan Xi and Xiao Chuhan chatted for a whole night until the sky was slightly bright with morning light. Lan Xi stretched and moved her body. Xiao Chuhan asked with concern: "You didn't rest for a whole night. Are you tired?"

Lan Xi shook her head and replied with a smile: "Not tired at all. Compared with my previous missions, this is so easy."

Suddenly, Lan Xi remembered something important. She turned to look at Xiao Chuhan and asked, "Xiao Chuhan, do you have a dagger?"

Xiao Chuhan was a little confused, but still nodded, indicating that he had a dagger.

Lan Xi went on, "That's good. I need a dagger for self-defense. After all, this is ancient times. I am not good at other weapons, but as long as you give me a dagger, I will not be afraid at all when facing the enemy." Lan Xi's eyes were full of confidence.

Xiao Chuhan looked at Lan Xi silently, and a feeling of being touched surged in his heart. Xiao Chuhan suddenly reached out and hugged Lan Xi, which surprised Lan Xi a little. However, Lan Xi did not push Xiao Chuhan away, but quietly felt his embrace.

Lan Xi said softly: "Xiao Chuhan, thank you. Knowing that there might be danger ahead, you are still willing to let me stay by your side and fight alongside you. Please rest assured, I will do my best to protect myself and will not let you worry."

Xiao Chuhan tightened his arms and said affectionately: "Xi'er, don't worry, I will definitely protect you and will never let you get hurt."

After a while, Xiao Chuhan slowly let go of Lan Xi. The two looked at each other and smiled, revealing a tacit understanding and trust that did not require words. They seemed to be ready to face all kinds of difficulties in the future, believing that as long as they supported each other and worked together, they would be able to overcome all challenges.

After the confidant had the carriage and horses arranged, he personally led Xiao Chuhan and his party along the path leading to Xiyue Country. The road was rugged and winding. Not only did they have to cross a high mountain, but there were also cliffs beside them. Under the cliff was a bottomless river. The party walked cautiously on the steep mountain.

However, Lan Xi did not notice that the stone under her feet had loosened. When Lan Xi stepped on the loose stone, her body instantly lost balance. Just when Lan Xi was about to slip, Xiao Chuhan was quick to act and held Lan Xi tightly in his arms. At this time, there was a deep abyss behind Lan Xi. If she lost her footing, the consequences would be disastrous. Lan Xi looked back at the cliff, her heartbeat accelerated rapidly, and a trace of fear rose in her heart. Even though Lan Xi had experienced countless battles, she still felt a little scared when facing such a steep cliff.

Lan Xi smiled awkwardly at the group and said, "I'm sorry to have made everyone worried."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Lan Xi was safe and sound, and said that as long as she was okay, it was fine.

Xiao Chuhan did not blame Lan Xi, but comforted her softly: "Don't worry, I will lead you, there will be no danger." After that, Xiao Chuhan stretched out his hand. Lan Xi nodded slightly, stretched out her hand and held Xiao Chuhan's hand, and her heart suddenly felt much more at ease. The group continued to walk towards the direction of Xiyue Country, and no one knew what would happen along the way.
