Hearing Bai Xuening's anxious inquiry, Xie Ling'er quickly turned her head to look at Hu Xiaobei as well.
She knew that they genuinely needed Hu Xiaobei's help now...
So, she really hoped to hear a positive answer from Hu Xiaobei.
Clearly sensing the tension of the two won, Hu Xiaobei's eyes darted around quickly!
Soon, Hu Xiaobei started speaking with so difficulty, "Well, to be honest! This... this repairing the Array seems... seems actually quite difficult."
Hearing Hu Xiaobei say this, the two won were sowhat speechless!
When Hu Xiaobei's eyes were frantically moving just now, they knew he had co up with yet another cunning idea!
Thinking this, they simultaneously gave Hu Xiaobei a big roll of their eyes and then said sowhat annoyed, "Alright, stop putting on airs! Just say it, what are your conditions? As long as we can agree, we will definitely agree!"
Hearing their disdainful words, Hu Xiaobei blushed...
"What are you talking about? Am I the type of person who talks conditions before doing the work? You... you're insulting ! However... however, since you've ntioned conditions, I feel embarrassed not ntioning sothing now, so, I am setting my conditions now."
After saying this to himself, Hu Xiaobei continued, "How about this! After it's done, each of you agrees to one condition of mine, how about that?"
Hearing Hu Xiaobei's request, they exchanged glances!
They both saw hesitation in each other's eyes, but ultimately, they agreed...
They knew they genuinely needed Hu Xiaobei's help now, so it was only right to give sothing in return!
Besides, they really didn't feel it was too difficult because both Bai Xuening and Xie Ling'er did have so fond feelings for Hu Xiaobei...
Their prompt agreent made Hu Xiaobei extrely happy!
"Now that you both have agreed, let's set a date, shall we? When is convenient? Let us go and check out that Array together and study it a bit!"
"Okay! No day like today, let's set out now!"
Xie Ling'er knew ti was critical, so she spoke up directly at this mont...
Hu Xiaobei had just about agreed when he suddenly heard Bai Xuening hesitantly speak!
"Setting out now is fine, but what about the Shao Family? The Shao Family Head Shao He had already run away before; maybe he will return with reinforcents!"
Bai Xuening knew Shao He was a vengeful person, so she feared he might move against them quietly while she and Hu Xiaobei were away...
Hearing Bai Xuening's concerns, a fierce look flashed through Xie Ling'er's eyes!
"Don't worry, if he dares to make a move, he will definitely not escape my surveillance. When the ti cos, our Xie Family will mobilize fully and completely eradicate him."
Xie Ling'er knew that to ensure everyone's safety, it was necessary to eliminate these uncertain elents!
Shao He from the Shao Family was one such uncertain elent, so for the long-term peace of all the families, it was crucial to eliminate him as much as possible.
"With your words, I am relieved!"
After saying that, she stood up and said, "Let's set out then!"
"Okay!"
And like that, Hu Xiaobei and the two won quietly left the place...
...
An hour later, Hu Xiaobei and the two won stepped into a vast barren wilderness...
Looking up, the entire world seed to be a color of dead silence.
"This place is really eerily quiet!"
While marveling, Hu Xiaobei picked up a handful of sand...
He discovered that the sand seed to be all broken gravel...
"Yes, I didn't even know about this place before."
Upon hearing Hu Xiaobei's words, Bai Xuening took a sharp breath...
It was also her first ti in such a place...
Feeling the shock from Hu Xiaobei and Bai Xuening, Xie Ling'er, with a slightly hoarse voice, began, "Previously, this area was considered a forbidden land. Our Xie Family had arranged many Arrays around here to guard this place, so it's normal that you didn't know about it."
Listening to this detailed explanation, Hu Xiaobei and Bai Xuening nodded in understanding.
Smiling, Xie Ling'er bent down and grabbed a handful of soil!
As she let it scatter in the wind, Xie Ling'er continued, "This place used to be a vast city, but for so reason, it turned into ruins. Our Xie Family had studied this area quite thoroughly before, but no matter how much we researched, we could not draw any conclusions. We had also taken the soil back for detailed analysis, but we basically ca up empty. Alright, let's not waste any more ti, let's go."
With that, Xie Ling'er, swinging her round hips, walked toward the depths of the ruins.
Hu Xiaobei glanced around and followed along!
Bai Xuening, being unfamiliar with the place, did not give her opinion and just quickly followed behind them.
...
Deep in the ruins, there were two elderly n sitting amid a vast expanse of broken walls and remnants; they were the two Array Grandmasters of the Xie Family.
One was nad Xie Wenlei, and the other, Xie Wenqiang.
These two were brothers.
Since childhood, they had been adept at studying arrays.
After the age of thirty, they both broke through and eventually beca Array Grandmasters.
They represented the highest standard of Array Masters in the Xie Family.
"Big brother, do you think the Family Head will have an easy ti finding assistance?"
Hearing this inquiry, Xie Wenqiang, who had been resting with closed eyes, opened his eyes!
A flash of weariness passed through his eyes before he sighed.
"If finding assistance were so easy, we wouldn't need to keep guarding here! In this era, let alone Array Grandmasters, there aren't many people who can even touch the threshold of Grandmaster."
Xie Wenqiang had a clear understanding of everything, so he knew it would be difficult for Xie Ling'er to find the right assistant!
Hearing Xie Wenqiang's bitter words, Xie Wenlei sighed, "Yes, in this era, it's really hard for Array Grandmasters to erge! But it's been another five years! There are always so opportunities!"
"Let's really hope so. If we can't find the right assistant to strengthen this Seal with us, the consequences would be unimaginable!"
"Yes, if that day really cos, perhaps it really is the end for us!"
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore; let's properly regulate our breathing! If things go as planned, the Family Head will soon bring people here!"
"Hmm, I also hope that everything goes smoothly because then we'd just…"
Before he could finish, Xie Wenlei suddenly stopped, quickly standing up...
The reason he stood up so excitedly was that he heard familiar footsteps not far away...
Lifting his head, Xie Wenlei took a careful look, and soon, he was extrely agitated!
Because he saw the Family Head Xie Ling'er walking this way...
And, most importantly, it was not just Xie Ling'er who ca here this ti!
"It looks like the Family Head really had a smooth journey this ti!"
Thinking this, he excitedly looked at Xie Wenqiang and eagerly shouted, "Big brother, we are so lucky, the Family Head is back, and she has brought back help!"
