CHAPTER 349: Your Honorable Surname is Tan, Your Name is Tan Tan
At that moment, a strange long howl suddenly came from the Three Star Holy Clan's side, and the remaining eighty or so ironhide lion beasts retreated like a tide.
Among them, the three individuals from the Three Star Holy Clan looked over here with serious expressions, their gazes seemingly fixated on Tan Tan, as if appraising his exceptionally "unique" appearance, especially his striking eyebrows; their eyes held an odd expression...
Especially when Tan Tan spoke, they maintained an attitude that seemed "casual," yet secretly perked up their ears, listening intently to Tan Tan's voice...
After a long while, one of them suddenly waved his hand, letting out a sharp sound, and then a rumbling noise erupted as the three of them took off with a large group of ironhide lion beasts, disappearing like a tide.
Meng Chaoran, who had been secretly protecting from the side, keenly felt that those several people’s gazes had lingered on Tan Tan's face for quite some time. It seemed that in the face of such formidable experts, these individuals from the Three Star Holy Clan only focused on Tan Tan’s martial sect level!
Why was that?
Meng Chaoran's brows furrowed tightly. He pondered and suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of crisis from deep within his heart.
He suddenly sensed that something was about to happen. So in that moment, Meng Chaoran made a decisive decision: to leave with Tan Tan immediately! No matter the cost, they had to leave right away!
There was no time to lose!
"Eh? Why are they running?" Rocky Luo widened his eyes in surprise.
This was the first time the major noble families encountered such a situation against the Three Star Holy Clan and spirit beasts. They were retreating without a fight… What was going on? This did not align with their fierce style…
"Xie Danfeng! You come here!" Xie Danqiong breathed a sigh of relief, then her anger surged up.
"What are you yelling about?" Xie Danfeng, who had initially felt guilty, felt a surge of resentment at her brother's shouting and retorted without showing weakness.
"Is this your brother?" Tan Tan asked with a crooked eyebrow, glancing at her.
"Yeah." Xie Danfeng huffed and nodded.
"I have to say..." Tan Tan remarked with a click of his tongue, "Your brother is even prettier than you..."
"Tan Tan!" Xie Danfeng immediately went crazy.
Another person who was equally frantic was Xie Danqiong!
Pretty... This word could only be used to describe women. If it were used to describe a man, it would be somewhat... cough cough cough. Especially since Xie Danqiong was always proud and had always hated being told he looked like a woman. Hearing Tan Tan say this, his eyes nearly turned blue with rage.
Then Xie Danfeng slowly walked over, leaning in front of Xie Danqiong, occasionally pointing at Tan Tan; implying how Tan Tan had taken care of her, protected her, and saved her along the way…
Xie Danfeng didn’t even know why she was saying all this; she just exaggerated Tan Tan's somewhat doubtful actions by tenfold.
But the more she talked, the more conflicted Xie Danqiong's expression became.
"This brother..." Xie Danqiong cupped his hands to Tan Tan, speaking amiably, "May I ask your honorable surname and name?"
"My surname is Tan, and my name is Tan." Tan Tan replied proudly, then thought that he should appear 'shocked' to leave a good impression on his future brother-in-law, so he immediately acted 'shocked' and said, "I'm the Tan of the flower that blooms for a short time. How about it, don’t I seem like a jade flower, possessing unparalleled elegance and handsomeness?"
"Cough cough cough..." Xie Danqiong began to cough awkwardly, rubbing his temples, suddenly at a loss for words. He had prepared a lot to say, but hearing this crooked melon from Tan Tan call himself 'elegant and handsome like a jade flower,' his hair stood on end, and he forgot everything he wanted to say.
Rocky Luo beside him was grinning widely.
"So it’s Brother Tan." Xie Danqiong rubbed his nose as if he had a cold, "May I ask Brother Tan... what is your background?"
