As soon as Yan Zhongshan finished speaking, the people below began to move.

Those who did not want to take the risk or those who were weak went to the left.

Apart from the Yan family, there were also geniuses from the other four major families and Imperial College.

Even though the family leader had said that the choice would be left to everyone, everyone actually understood in their hearts that those who could really participate in this mission were the strongest and most talented disciples.

Therefore, when Yan Xi and Yan Chushi walked to the line on the right, many surprised and inquisitive eyes swept over them.

Yan Lan and Yan Hu were also in this line.

The wound on Yan Lan’s forehead had already recovered after Yan Sheng had bought her the best and most expensive healing medicine. When she saw Yan Xi, the resentment in her eyes was almost overflowing, and she wanted to skin her alive.

“Xixi, they must be up to something bad again,” Yan Chushi noticed and whispered to Yan Xi.

“Maybe she wants to do something in the Misty Forest,” Yan Gu also chimed in.

The situation in the Misty Forest was complicated, and it was shrouded in fog. It was the perfect place to make a move.

The three of them gathered together. Yan Zhongshan noticed them and was surprised to see Yan Xi and Yan Chushi in the group. However, he did not chase them away.

On the contrary, Yan Hong saw them and walked over with a straight face. He whispered, “Yan Xi, Yan Chushi what are you two doing? Your cultivation is low. Aren’t you just courting death?”

Yan Xi was not angered by his words. She knew that Yan Hong said this out of concern. “Elder Hong, don’t worry. We’ll take care of ourselves.”

“That’s right! That’s right! Elder Hong, we’ll definitely be safe.” Yan Chushi blinked and acted cute.

Elder Yan Hong was about to say something, but Yan Zhongshan had already ordered the team to set off.

Seeing that the two of them had no intention of staying back, Yan Hong sighed and reminded them, “When you reach the Misty Forest, you must follow the team closely. Don’t fall behind, understand? At that time, we might be able to divert our attention to take care of you.”

Yan Xi and Yan Chushi readily agreed.

Yan Hong then left.

At the entrance of the Misty Forest, the other four families had already arrived. Imperial College’s team was in the middle, looking like they were in charge. Yun Yuhan did not choose to stand with the Yun family’s team. Instead, he was leading the team from Imperial College.

He was still dressed in white, and the blue Ice crystals embedded in his robes seemed to be glowing with a faint luster. The white frost around his body continued to condense and disperse. His light-colored eyes looked cold and aloof.

When he noticed the arrival of the Yan family’s team, he tilted his head slightly.

Li Qingming stood by his side, looking as gentle as ever.

He smiled at Yan Zhongshan. “Master Yan.”

Among the three of them, Ji San was the most conspicuous. He had stuck his broadsword into the ground in an unruly manner, sticking out like a sore thumb among the orderly people of Imperial College.

The other students of Imperial College stood behind the three of them.

There was no special distinction between the ranks in the team, but one could still that the three people in front seemed to be treated with respect!

Yun Yuhan, Ji San, and Li Qingming had the highest cultivation in the group, and they also held the most authority.

“Even a good-for-nothing who can’t cultivate is brought here to participate in the mission. Do the five great families think we’re fools? You just want to bring anyone over to get a share of the loot!” Bai Ling’s eyes stared straight in Yan Xi’s direction, frowning in dissatisfaction. It was obvious who she was talking about.

For a moment, everyone’s eyes were focused on her.

Even Yun Yuhan’s indifferent gaze fell on her.

She could not see any emotion from it, but Bai Ling still quivered, as if the morning dew around her had frozen.

Could it be that the Holy Son still cared about his fiancée?

She was frightened by the outrageous thought in her heart. When she looked over again to confirm it, the young man had already looked away. His emotionless face was as indifferent as usual. It was as if he had just taken a casual glance at her.

Bai Ling patted her chest and heaved a sigh of relief. She must have been mistaken.

“Ling, stop talking.” Duanmu Rou glanced at Yun Yuhan discreetly, then pretended to helplessly pull on Bai Ling’s sleeve, trying her best to act like an understanding, gentle, and kind person.

“Xixi, Bai Ling is a straightforward person. Don’t be angry with her.” She looked at Yan Xi—as if she had completely forgotten what she had done at the Green Lotus Pavilion yesterday. She smiled gently and reached out to push aside her hair, revealing her slender neck in Yun Yuhan’s direction.

Yan Xi followed her movements and looked over. She happened to see Yun Yuhan and raised her eyebrows. She had thought that Duanmu Rou had taken the wrong medicine. Yesterday, they parted on bad terms at the Green Lotus Pavilion. However, this morning, she was acting like a loving cousin. She was really a hypocrite.

But what Yan Xi did not expect was that when she looked over to criticize her, Yun Yuhan seemed to have noticed it as well, and his cold eyes also looked over.

He stared at her quietly.

Yan Xi did not feel embarrassed at all for being caught peeking at and criticizing others in her heart. She did not hide and calmly looked back.

Yun Yuhan looked at her for two seconds and confirmed that he could not see any expression on her face under the mask. His thin lips pursed into a straight line, and he was the first to look away.

Yan Xi slowly looked away.

This exchange only lasted a couple of seconds. On the other side, Bai Ling, who was being held back by Duanmu Rou, was even more dissatisfied. “Did I say something wrong? We’re going on an adventure, not an outing. What’s the use of bringing pieces of trash like them along other than dragging us down? We don’t have any extra people to protect them!”

Her words also resonated with the others. Although they had gathered the elders and experts of various families, it was far from enough compared to the huge number of ordinary disciples.

There were only a limited number of experts who could protect them. One more person to distract their attention would mean one less guarantee of their safety.

Yun Yuhan’s cold voice rang out when he saw that everyone was getting angry and restless.

“That’s enough.”

His voice was not loud.

However, all the noise at the scene stopped abruptly as his voice rang out.

The people who had been criticizing the Yan family for bringing Yan Xi and Yan Chushi were all stunned. They quieted down immediately. However, the shock in their eyes was evident.

Had the Holy Son just helped Yan Xi?

Ignoring the various expressions of the people behind him, Yun Yuhan took the lead and walked into the Misty Forest with cold eyes.

Seeing that Yun Yuhan had left without waiting for them, the strange feeling in everyone’s hearts disappeared and they heaved a sigh of relief. The Holy Son had probably only spoken because he was getting impatient. Why would he care about that ugly piece of trash from the Yan family?
