Chapter 158: Chapter 158: Xiao Yan of the Xiao Family
Above the Yunlan Mountain Square
A dozen elders of the Yunlan Sect, led by Yun Leng, sat cross-legged on the high platform, with a sense of pride on their old faces, coldly looking at the black-robed young man who walked out from behind the mountain gate.
On the other side of the stone steps beneath the high platform stood Nalan Yanran, wearing a moon-white robe and skirt. A breeze blew, and the robe clung to her delicate body, revealing her perfect, curvy figure underneath.
Seeing the appearance of the black-robed young man, Nalan Yanran's expression remained calm, and there was no excitement in her beautiful eyes. Although she held a sword in her hand, her sharpness was restrained, and no trace of her sharpness could be seen.
The disciples of the Yunlan Sect were fine, and were not moved by Xiao Yan's arrival. Perhaps, in their eyes, the only use for little Xiao Yan was to let them see the actions of the young sect leader again.
There are about a thousand disciples of the Yunlan Sect here. Apart from the usual patrolling disciples, the remaining hundreds of disciples have spontaneously gathered here. It is also properly practiced in daily life, the postures have their own rules, and the breathing is loosely connected, as if they are one body.
At this time, Yun Yun and Liu Xi were not walking either. They were standing side by side in the shade of a tree.
Suddenly, a gusty wind sounded, an old figure flashed through the air and stopped next to Liu Xi. It was Nalan Jie.
"Sect Master Yun… sir, I didn't expect that even you were alarmed!" Nalan Jie was so uncontrollable that at this time, a wry smile appeared on his face. The next ones to encounter him were his granddaughter and his originally planned grandson, speaking of which, this actually counts as a family scandal.
Liu Xi glanced at Nalan Jie and smiled slightly, "Chief Nalan is also here."
Nalan Jie smiled bitterly and nodded. The Yunlan Sect had not sent out any invitations to the outside world. He took the initiative to come here because he wanted to wait for Xiao Yan to lose the challenge, then console him, and also send an apology to the Nalan Family. After all, he was an old friend.
Although it was heard that Xiao Yan's talent had been restored, Nalan Jie probably knew how terribly Nalan Yanran had grown under the Yunlan Sect's training in the past few years.
From the beginning to the end, he didn't think that Xiao Yan would be able to defeat his granddaughter.
In front of the mountain gate
Xiao Yan walked towards the square step by step. His body seemed to be trembling slightly, but judging from the excitement in his eyes, it was clearly not due to fear.
He walked to the edge of the square and stopped, staring at Nalan Yanran on the stone steps, his eyes seemed to be filled with hatred and resentment... other than that, there was nothing else.
Yao Chen had once personally refined an elixir for him, allowing him to break through his martial spirit once again and enter the realm of a great martial master.
Today, Dang was proud and proud, showing off his sharpness, and said: "Xiao Yan of the Xiao family, has come to fulfill the three-year assignment!"
Hundreds of Yunlan Sect disciples looked at this young man in black with curiosity in their eyes.
After the so-called three-year agreement spread within the sect, Xiao Yan's arrogance was regarded as a joke. A boy with a third-level martial spirit actually wanted to surpass his young sect master.
He doesn't have any education, and he dares to speak arrogantly, which is even more stupid. If the Yunlan Sect had not always been on the sidelines and ignored worldly affairs, any elder of the sect would have destroyed the little Xiao family.
A little insect would never know that the kindness of a strong person is the greatest kindness to him.
Compared to the sharp Xiao Yan, Nalan Yanran's face always had a calm expression, there was no sadness or happiness in her eyes. Her delicate body was tall and tall like a snow plum, and her voice was just as calm.
"Nalan Family, Nalan Yanran, you have waited a long time!"
Yun Yun looked at Xiao Yan again, slightly embarrassed, and it seemed that it was not in vain. However, since Yan Ran did not like her, the Yunlan Sect did not need to sacrifice the young master's happiness to devote itself to someone it did not like, even if that person had the potential to become a strong person.
Nalan Jie's expression showed regret. After all, he was an old friend, and he had such potential. It would be great if he could get close in person.
Liu Xi looked at Xiao Yan with some surprise. In his opinion, Xiao Yan actually had the strength to enter the realm of a great martial artist for the first time. It seemed that he was still a high-level martial artist before.
"Yao Chen is truly the best alchemist in the mainland. He can truly give Xiao Yan the strength of a great martial master without swallowing the strange fire.
In three years, Xiao Yan's talent was truly terrifying as he broke through from the third level of the martial spirit to the great martial master realm.
Gan! It took me eight years to break through to Great Master Dou.
Wait... It only took Yanran three years to break through from Dou Zhe to become Great Master Dou. It took me... four years to break through from Dou Zhe to Great Master Dou!
My talent is truly average..."
For a moment, Liu Xi looked at the two people who were about to have a decisive battle in the square, his eyes were very complicated, and he became increasingly wary of Xiao Yan.
At the same time, the dozens of elders of the Yunlan Sect sitting on the high platform had the same doubts in their hearts as Yun Yun.
No matter what, the courage to go to Yunlan alone, to be able to speak so harshly under the gaze of many strong men is not bad.
I just don't know whether I'm stupid or reckless!
"You are Xiao Yan, right?" Yun Ling, who was in the center of many elders, said in a calm voice.
"I am the great elder of the Yunlan Sect, Yun Ling." Before Xiao Yan could answer, Yun Ling said to himself: "The Sect Master has entrusted me to arrange this three-year meeting between you and the young sect master. I am the one leading it. This competition is for discussion, and the point is..."
"Life and death, everyone has their own fate," a disobedient voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Yun Ling's words.
The eyes in the field followed the sound, looking at the sharp Xiao Yan, and their expressions were quite strange. This kid wants to die. Or you never wanted to live in the first place. That's right, death will be the end of the world.
Nalan Yanran's expression changed from surprise for the first time. He nodded slightly and said in a cold voice, "It's up to you! However, I will spare your life."
Yun Leng frowned when Xiao Yan interrupted him. Xiao Yan, covered in thorns, greatly angered Yun Ling, the Great Elder of the Yunlan Sect and a member of the Dou Wan Realm.
Even if he has some talent, his current cultivation level seems to be between Master Dou and Grand Master Dou. How the hell did this guy live still with such a vicious mouth? Is there a strong person secretly protecting him?
Yun Leng accidentally guessed part of the truth.
Seeing that Nalan Yanran agreed, Yun Leng also agreed, and said in a calm voice: "Young man, keep a bridle in everything, but since you have such a request, it is up to you, life or death, everyone is determined by their own fate."
Yun Leng is definitely not a bad person. If he really was a cruel and ruthless bad person, there would be no Xiao family and Xiao Yan today. This is not right, the Xiao family can still enjoy Gu Xun'er's soft rice.
Xiao Yan sneered, grabbed the handle of the ruler with his palm and pulled it. Lord Xuanzhong summoned a strong wind, pointed diagonally at the ground, and stared at Nalan Yanran: "Today, we will completely resolve the past grievances. You brought with you three years ago. Please return the shame you brought upon me today to the Xiao family!"
Nalan Yanran slowly pulled out the long sword from her hand. The blade was tilted, and the sunlight reflected the cold. She said in a very serious voice: "How shameful is this? After defeating you, I will go and apologize to Uncle Xiao, but I will never acknowledge the marriage contract that your grandfather made with my grandfather before he was alive, I, Nalan Yanran... live for myself."
