Chapter 358: The good show begins
As the host and guest arrived, Xiao Zhan and the three elders were talking to the old man of the Seven-Star Battle Master.
However, the old man seemed to have something unspeakable. Whenever he spoke, he would swallow it helplessly. Whenever he could not help but look at the old man.
Time passed by little by little, and Xiao Yan was already drowsy when he heard it.
Just when Xiao Yan was so bored that he wanted to doze off, Xiao Xun'er beside him smiled and said, "Brother Xiao Yan, do you know their identities?"
"You know?"
He turned his head curiously and Xiao Yan asked in surprise.
"Did you see the cloud silver sword at the cuffs of their robes?"
"oh?"
When his heart moved, Xiao Yan turned his eyes to the cuffs of the three of them. He found a silver sword in the shape of a cloud, and said curiously: "Are they from Yunlan Sect?"
If the Xiao family is the dominant of Wutan City, then the Yunlan Sect is the dominant of the entire Jiama Empire, which is a world of difference.
If it were yesterday, Xiao Yan might have been a little surprised about the purpose of the three of them, but after a "baptism" last night, not to mention the person coming to Yunlan Sect, even the leader of Yunlan Sect, I am afraid that Xiao Yan would not be surprised.
After all, last night, Xiao Yan not only strengthened a "membersman" with a mysterious origin, but also became a disciple of Yao Lao as his teacher in a confused manner.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but rub the simple ring in his hand, and he felt a little happy. With the help of Yao Lao, and his cultivation talent was restored, in time, he might not be able to surpass the person in front of him.
"Brother Xiao Yan..."
Just as Xiao Yan was thinking, Xiao Xun'er tilted her head and said strangely: "Aren't you curious about what they did when they came to the Xiao family? Do you know what the girl's name is?"
"Um?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yan was stunned.
"Nalan Yanran!"
A little teasing appeared on Xiao Xun'er's face. She glanced at Xiao Yan, who was a little stiff, and joked: "To put it, Miss Nalan, it seems that you have had a marriage contract with Brother Xiao Yan."
“…”
Regardless of Xiao Yan's increasingly strange expression, Xiao Xun'er continued: "Five years ago, Nalan Yanran was personally accepted as a disciple by Yun Yun's sect leader Yun Lan Sect. In the past five years, Nalan Yanran showed excellent cultivation talent, which made Yun Yun favor him.
When a person has the power to change his destiny, she will try her best to solve the things she doesn't like.
Unfortunately, the marriage between Brother Xiao Yan and her was what made her most dissatisfied with!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Yan's face suddenly became ugly, and there was a clear anger in his eyes, and he whispered,
"Is she here to terminate the engagement?"
A delicate little hand quietly passed through the sleeve and gently pressed Xiao Yan's tight palm.
It's Xiao Xun'er.
She comforted softly: "Brother Xiao Yan, if she really acted like this, it would be her loss. Xun'er believes that in the future, she will regret her short-sighted eyes today!"
"She will definitely regret it!"
A trace of light flashed in his eyes, and Xiao Yan said in a deep voice: "It will definitely happen."
Xiao Xun'er couldn't help but be stunned. At this moment, Xiao Yan was no different from the energetic appearance three years ago, and even more confident and more calm than before.
"Brother Xiao Yan..."
At this moment, Xiao Xun'er knew that the brother Xiao Yan she had been waiting for was finally back.
What happened next was as Xiao Xun'er described,
After Nalan Yanran's repeated hints with some impatientness, Mr. Ge Ye, who claimed to be a visitor from Yunlan Sect, finally expressed his intention.
"Class Chief Xiao, you also know that the Yunlan Sect's style is harsh, and the Sect Master has high expectations for Yanran. Now he is basically training her as the next sect leader of Yunlan Sect. Because of some special rules, the descendants of the Sect Master must not have any entanglements with men before becoming the official sect leader..."
"After asking Yanran, the Sect Master knew that she had another marriage with the Xiao family, so... so the Sect Master wanted to ask the Sect Master Xiao to terminate the engagement."
"Click!"
The jade cup in Xiao Zhan's hand suddenly turned into a bunch of powder.
The atmosphere in the hall was a little quiet, and the three elders above were also shocked by Ge Ye's words. But after a moment, there was a hint of sarcasm and ridicule in their eyes when they looked at Xiao Zhan.
"Hehe, someone came to the door to force the engagement to terminate. It depends on your patriarch, what prestige will be used to manage the family in the future!"
Some young girls of the younger generation did not know about Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran's engagement.
However, after asking the parents beside them, their faces suddenly became exciting, and their mocking and sarcastic gazes all turned to Xiao Yan in the corner.
As for Ye Fan, who had taken all this into his eyes, he did not notice the slightest anger or shame on Xiao Yan's face, but was as calm as ever, and nodded in his heart.
It seems that after his intervention last night, Xiao Yan has regained his confidence and naturally he will not care about such trivial matters.
But that's true. If Xiao Yan was furious just because of this blow, it can be seen that his energy was very limited. Even with the help of Yao Lao, it would not be as high as in the original work.
Seeing that things were not done, Nalan Yanran made a promise to pay more money and took out a Qi-gathering pill, trying to get the Xiao family to agree to break the engagement.
Just as the three elders were thinking about how to get the medicine for their grandson, Xiao Yan's voice that suppressed his faint anger suddenly sounded in the hall.
"Mr. Ge Ye, you should take back the pills. I will not agree to what happened today!"
As if someone pressed the pause button, the hall suddenly became silent, and everyone's eyes turned to Xiao Yan who suddenly stood up in the corner.
Ye Fan finally showed a long-awaited smile.
Waiting for so long isn't it just to witness this rare scene?
Sure enough, everything seemed to be planned.
After a long stalemate, Nalan Yanran said: "Today's incident is indeed Yanran is reckless. I can temporarily withdraw the request to terminate the engagement, but I need you to agree to me!"
"What agreement?" Xiao Yan asked with a frown.
"Today's request, I can delay it for three years. In three years, you come to Yunlan Sect to challenge me.
If I lose, I will terminate the engagement in public. By then, I believe you have also conducted a family coming-of-age ceremony. Therefore, even if I lose, it will not make Uncle Xiao look too embarrassed. Do you dare to accept it?" Nalan Yanran said lightly.
...
"Miss Nalan, for the sake of Mr. Nalan, Xiao Yan advises you to say a few words: thirty years from Hedong and thirty years from Hexi, don't bully the young man's poor!"
"In less than three years, I really can't get any interest in you!"
The ink falls, the pen stops!
Xiao Yan suddenly pulled out the short sword on the table with his right hand. The sharp blade suddenly drew a bloody mouth on the left palm...
The blood-stained palms left a dazzling blood mark on the white paper!
After gently picking up the contract, Xiao Yan sneered. When he passed by Nalan Yanran, his palm slammed it heavily on the table.
Chapter completed!
