Hearing this, Yun Yun's brows wrinkled slightly.
This time, Yun Yun brought Nalan Yanran to the Xiao family to cancel the engagement. She originally intended to help her apprentice resolve the knot in her heart and cancel the engagement with Xiao Yan.
Unexpectedly, things went against one's wishes. Although Nalan Yanran did not have to marry Xiao Yan, she had to be divorced in public.
The young master of the Yunlan Sect was actually divorced.
If this matter were to be spread out, the thousand-year-old prestige of the Yunlan Sect in the Jia Ma Empire would be destroyed. Who would be willing to join the Yunlan Sect in the future?
If Xiao Yan really went to the Nalan family to divorce her in public, Nalan Yanran would definitely feel depressed, which would not only hinder her cultivation, but also make it much more difficult for her to pass the Gate of Life and Death. There would also be people in the Yun Lan Sect who would oppose Nalan Yanran becoming the next sect leader.
With this in mind, Yun Yun made a plan in her mind. She had to negotiate with the Xiao family and stop Xiao Yan from going to divorce his wife at all costs.
Yun Yun helped Nalan Yanran up and handed her over to a female steward of the Yun Lan Sect. She looked at Xiao Zhan and his son and bowed, "Chief Xiao, this is the fault of our Yun Lan Sect. We are willing to apologize with a generous reward. All the advanced skills of the Yun Lan Sect can be chosen by Xiao Yan, and Elder Gu He can also refine several sixth-grade pills for him. I only hope that the Xiao family can let bygones be bygones. The divorcing matter is not good for either of us, and will only make other forces in the imperial capital laugh."
"As for the situation at the Nalan family, I will personally go to explain to old man Nalan Jie. Just treat this marriage as if it never happened."
Seeing this, Xiao Yan frowned. It seemed that in order to preserve its reputation, the Yunlan Sect did not intend to let him really go and divorce Nalan Yanran in public, and make a big fuss about this matter.
Xiao Yan's face remained calm, and he had already started thinking about what decision to make.
Although the Xiao family has moved back to the imperial capital, with the help of Xiao Ling, the family power has developed rapidly. However, the Yunlan Sect has stood in the Jia Ma Empire for a thousand years, and its power is not comparable to that of the current Xiao family.
Moreover, his cousin had previously warned the Xiao family that the Yun Lan Sect was not as simple as it seemed. The previous leader, Yun Shan, served as a dog for a powerful force in Zhongzhou and broke through from the peak of Dou Huang to the Dou Zong realm. Unless it was absolutely necessary, they should try to avoid conflicts with the Yun Lan Sect. If the Yun Lan Sect was pushed into a corner, the Xiao family would be in big trouble.
Although it was indeed very satisfying and satisfying to cancel the engagement in a high-profile manner, the consequence would be to create a powerful enemy for the Xiao family. However, Xiao Yan was still able to distinguish the priorities of various matters.
However, the Xiao family cannot lose face. It is impossible for the Yunlan Sect to let the Xiao family treat today's incident as if it never happened. Without taking out some good things, this matter cannot be just let go.
Xiao Zhan, who was standing aside, naturally remembered Xiao Ling's instructions and cast a solemn look towards Xiao Yan.
The thoughts in Xiao Yan's mind only lasted for a moment. He nodded to Xiao Zhan first, and then walked to the center of the training ground.
Staring at Yun Yun, Xiao Yan's face remained calm. "Since Sect Master Yun has spoken, considering that old man Nalan Jie doesn't know about this, and Nalan Yanran's father Nalan Su and my father are close friends, I can let bygones be bygones for by not divorcing her in public. But today's incident."
Finally, after some negotiation, Xiao Yan selected several wind-attributed Xuan-level fighting skills suitable for his father to practice, and took away some medicinal materials needed to refine the sixth-grade pills. The few pills that Yunlan Sect had taken out before were also taken by Xiao Yan. The matter ended with Nalan Yanran and Xiao Yan peacefully canceling their engagement.
Seeing those people from the Yunlan Sect leaving the Xiao family, Xiao Yan turned his gaze to the extra storage ring in his hand, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose slightly.
"The Yunlan Sect's leader is truly extraordinary. She actually has so many good things in her hands."
Xiao Yan now spent a lot of resources to learn alchemy. Although Xiao Ling gave Xiao Yan some pills and fighting skills, he did not prepare the herbs needed for Xiao Yan to practice alchemy. After all, Xiao Ling did not have the herbs needed to refine low-level pills.
With the help of these resources, Xiao Yan believed that it would not take long for him to become a second-grade alchemist.
Zi Yan, who was originally a little drowsy, suddenly seemed to realize something. She spread the Dou Qi Wings behind her and flew towards Xiao Ling's courtyard.
…
Inside the practice room.
On the green lotus platform, a naked young man sat cross-legged, his slightly closed eyes trembling slightly, and after a moment, he slowly opened.
In the ink-black eyes, there was a faint green flame lingering. After a while, it suddenly surged up and actually covered the entire eye. For a moment, Xiao Ling's pupils actually turned green, and looked faintly weird.
At that moment, even the air in the dull training room could be heard making slight crackling sounds.
As this pair of eyes opened, a majestic aura, like an awakening army, slowly raised its head and roared towards the sky, shaking the earth and sky.
The soul barrier outside the training room shattered when it collided with the breath slightly, and was unable to block it at all.
As soon as this overwhelming momentum appeared, it immediately attracted countless eyes in the Imperial City of Jia Ma Empire.
Yun Yun, who had just walked out of the Xiao family's courtyard, looked back in surprise, looking towards the Xiao family's backyard, "How is it possible that someone in the Xiao family has broken through to the Dou Huang level? Could it be Xiao Ling who has been in seclusion for half a year? If I remember correctly, he and Yanran should be the same age."
Under this majestic aura that was several times stronger than ever before, the training room began to tremble slightly. Cracks as thick as arms spread out from under the Green Lotus Platform like a spider web, and finally spread to every corner of the training room.
Is this... the feeling of a Dou Huang..."
Xiao Ling slowly spread out his hands, feeling the powerful Dou Qi in his body that was like a mountain torrent. A faint arc appeared at the corner of his mouth. At this moment, a heroic feeling that the world was in his control emerged from his heart.
"My cultivation has reached the level of a Four-Star Dou Huang. It feels so wonderful to refine the Heavenly Flame and improve my cultivation. The Flame Mantra has also been upgraded to a Quasi-Earth-Level Technique, which is enough for me to reach Dou Zong level."
After experiencing the power of Dou Huang for a while, Xiao Ling jumped down from the Green Lotus Platform, took out a set of clothes from the ring, and covered his body.
After moving his body which was numb from sitting for so long, Xiao Ling muttered to himself with some fear: "Fortunately, I prepared the pill to remove the evil fire in advance. The evil fire born from the fusion of the different fires is really a bit weird."
Perhaps because one of Xiao Ling's Heavenly Flame was a Heavenly Flame Seed Flame, the side effects Xiao Ling suffered were not strong. After taking a few pills prepared in advance, he dispelled all those distracting thoughts.
