But based on Xingyuan's understanding of her, it is hard to say whether she is really so warm to others or has other intentions.
Since Chen Ying'er is close in age to Xingyuan and Cai'er, there is nothing wrong with her calling Tan Wan "sister" so openly.
But it was not so suitable for Wang Yuanyuan, Yue Mingnan and Li Xin, who were of similar age to her. However, they also welcomed Tan Wan's arrival.
Seeing that Tan Wan seemed to be in good condition, he was flattered by everyone's enthusiasm for a moment, and then Chen Ying'er pulled him to sit among the others.
Seeing several people talking and laughing, Xingyuan couldn't help but feel relieved and sat down in the empty seat next to Cai'er that was prepared for him.
"Thanks a lot."
"Thanks a lot."
The two of them spoke to each other in a low voice, and then smiled at the same time.
Xingyuan felt that this was a good feeling. Not only could they carry out tasks together and practice together to improve their abilities, they also did not have to be restricted or controlled by their respective temples or teachers.
This demon hunting group is really a good place to go.
Especially after he, Xingyuan, and the team completed the mission in the Cave of Fear and Howling, they made a lot of money.
The 200,000 merits awarded for this exploration mission alone, and the tens of thousands of merits from various demon hunting missions completed along the way, are enough for his team to live happily and no longer have to risk their lives to enter the demon territory to carry out missions for a long time.
Not to mention that in his Xingyuan storage ring, there are also merit tokens left by the predecessors of the Demon Hunting Group that he recovered from the Moon Demon Princess Yue Ye, which contain a total of more than 400,000 merits.
You must know that Long Haochen and his team have clearly stated that they do not want the credit for this achievement and the subsequent alliance rewards.
In other words, as long as Xingyuan can find a way to get this merit, then when his demon hunting team goes out on a mission next time, he can start working on his promotion to the commander rank.
The level of the demon hunting team can be upgraded by one level after returning from a mission. This kind of thing is definitely an unprecedented feat in their Temple Alliance.
Seeing that Tan Wan was getting along very well with everyone, Xingyuan took the opportunity to ask her if she wanted to announce to everyone that she would be a member of the team in the future.
But she was rejected by Tan Wan. She hoped to wait until the day the team set out from Jialing Pass to announce it.
After the banquet, Xingyuan and Caier also started preparing to break through to the sixth level, and told them in advance that they would be in seclusion.
"You are all going to be level six?"
Not only Tan Wan, but Chen Ying'er and the others also showed very surprised expressions when they heard the voice, as if they found it hard to accept that the two captains were going to leave them far behind so quickly.
"Yes. Didn't I tell you?"
Xingyuan looked at the crowd who were all looking surprised half-jokingly.
"You definitely didn't say that."
Chen Ying'er was seen shaking her head with a look of certainty on her face, and the colorful beads hanging in her hair were swaying in the air as she moved.
“Hehehe——”
The little pig McDull lying on her knees also followed her, poking his little head out from under the table and pointing at Xingyuan's face with his two hooves. His expression was vivid and made everyone laugh.
Even Cai Er, who usually only smiled at Xing Yuan, couldn't help but chuckle at this. She seemed to feel the warmth of home again in this team.
She has Xingyuan and Tan Wan here, so what else can she be dissatisfied with?
For Cai'er, the current life is what she has always dreamed of and the best life she can imagine.
However, if they want to maintain this situation, they must ensure that their demon hunting groups will not be disbanded due to a series of reasons such as reduction in personnel.
Cai'er didn't want to go back to that cold Assassin's Temple no matter what.
……
Although Li Zhengzhi has agreed to let Tan Wan leave Jialing Pass and become a member of Xingyuan and his team's No. 21 Demon Hunting Group, she certainly cannot just leave like that. She needs to hand over her work content and explain the situation to her other teachers and friends here.
After all, Jialing City can be said to be her hometown in a sense, and Tan Wan has also formed an inseparable bond here.
After dinner, Tan Wan told everyone that she would come back to play with them in a couple of days, as she still had some work to take care of in Jialing Pass.
Xingyuan noticed the hint from Tan Wan's eyes and understood it instantly. She stood up and said to everyone, "Then I'll take my sister back. You can go out and play after dinner. You should pay attention to the balance between work and rest and don't keep holding on to that tension."
Xingyuan was telling the truth. After his team completed the mission of exploring the Cave of Fear and Sorrow and obtained the Tower of Aion from Alex, not only him, but everyone in the team could breathe a sigh of relief.
Although he felt that Chen Ying'er and others were hit hard after hearing that he and Cai'er were going to start preparing to break through to the sixth level today.
There is a high probability that they will not be able to visit this prosperous Jialing City, and everyone will hide in their rooms to practice, but he still feels it is necessary to say this to everyone.
"Don't worry, Cai'er and I were almost unable to suppress our cultivation, so we had no choice but to choose to retreat and break through. Otherwise, we would definitely go out shopping and relax with everyone in the past two days. This leader personally took you out to play."
After Xingyuan said this to everyone, he took off his hat and saluted everyone, thanking them for their dedication and hard work during this period of time.
"May all the beautiful ladies and girls enjoy this hard-earned holiday that belongs entirely to you."
"It's quite presentable."
Chen Ying'er looked at Xingyuan's golden hair and muttered to herself with her lips pouted.
“Your eyes are glowing.”
Yue Mingnan, who was sitting next to her, exposed her stubbornness without giving her any face.
Fortunately, Xingyuan and Tan Wan had already left the box.
Anyway, the matter between her and Xingyuan was no longer a secret in the team. Besides, no one seemed to say anything, so Chen Ying'er just gave up.
"Hmph, I am happy to do so."
"Sister Ying'er is still as cute as before, the pretentious girl who only dared to keep her feelings to herself." Yue Mingnan said with a smile, stirring the straw in the cup.
"you!"
Chen Ying'er was somewhat annoyed when Yue Mingnan mentioned the past. The two of them were arguing with each other and neither noticed that Cai'er, who was still sitting in her seat, was gone. (End of this chapter)
