Yuan turned to look at Tian Yanyu after giving her mother the sword techniques.
"Give me your hand. I will also pass down these techniques to you," he said still with a smile on his face.
"But why…? Why are you doing so much for us when we were strangers until not long ago?" Tian Suyin asked him in a low voice.
Yuan sighed, "I want to tell you the truth, but for your safety, I cannot do so. However, please trust me when I say that I have no ulterior motives and simply want to help the Tian Family."
"You don't have to say anything else, Xiao Yang." Tian Yanyu mumbled as she placed her hand on his palm.
"Your actions have long proven to me that you're not here to harm us, so you don't need to say another word regarding that, as I trust you with my whole being."
Tian Yanyu's face was visibly crimson red at this moment.
Yuan smiled at her words as he transferred the sword techniques to her.
"Just like Senior Tian, the only restriction is your ability to comprehend these techniques."
"Thank you, Xiao Yang… Truly, thank you."
Yuan nodded, "I will be heading deeper into the tomb now. What will the two of you do?"
"Mother?" Tian Yanyu turned to look at her.
"I would like to say that we should regroup with the sect, but we have already received enough from this place. In fact, I doubt there is anyone— besides Xiao Yang— who has received more than us from the tomb. There's no need for us to risk our lives here anymore. Let's leave."
Tian Yanyu nodded, agreeing with her mother's decision to leave the tomb.
"Alright. Then I will see you guys later." Yuan said to them before turning to look at Jin Xi, who had been in the background this entire time.
"Jin Xi, can I trouble you one last time to guide them out of this tomb safely?" He asked her with clasped hands and his head lowered.
Jin Xi did not respond to him and turned to look at the two ladies.
"Can you confirm that you wish to leave this place entirely?" She asked them.
"Yes." Tian Suyin nodded, as did Tian Yanyu.
"Done."
Jin Xi suddenly snapped her fingers, and Tian Suyin and Tian Yanyu's figure disappeared into thin air, almost as if Jin Xi had snapped them out of existence.
"What did you do to them?" Yuan asked her with a slight frown on his face.
"I forcefully teleported them out of here, exactly what they wanted," she calmly said.
"You have such powers?" Yuan was surprised to learn this information.
"Do not underestimate my authority within this place," she sneered in a boastful manner.
"By the way, don't forget to grab the key."
Jin Xi pointed at a certain area, where a blue key was stabbed into the ground.
After realizing this, Yuan used Qi Manifestation to grab the key from afar.
