The Battle Through Heaven
Congregate
After exiting the alchemist association, Xiao Yan immediately returned to the inn where he was staying. He rested a few hours in the inn until he recovered to his peak before he left the inn. He then walked over to the Nalan clan to begin the poison removal session today.
Although he knew that the ‘Searing Poison’ inside his body would become denser every time he helped Nalan Jie eliminate the poison, Xiao Yan could only proceed in this way to obtain the powerful energy contained within ‘Searing Poison’ and ‘ Seven Magical Green Spirit Saliva ‘. However, regardless of how abnormal ‘Searing Poison’ was, he was not too worried. After all, with the ‘Fire Green Lotus Core’ protecting his body, Xiao Yan believed that he could compete with the ‘Burning Poison’ even if it erupted within him.
After these few days where Nalan Jie and Nalan Su, had personally seen him leave, the entire Nalan clan all knew Xiao Yan as a young man with a cold expression. Therefore, when they saw his figure, not only did they not step forward to hinder him, they also respectfully bowed and greeted him as he passed by.
At this moment, the sky was already dark. However, the Nalan clan remained brightly lit. Clan members came and went on footpaths, like markets.
Xiao Yan walked through several small streets with great familiarity and the vast grand hall of the Nalan clan once again appeared before him. He slowly walked closer. Waves of noisy laughter mixed with some melodies were emitted from the hall. This caused Xiao Yan, who liked the calmness to frown a little.
Slowly walking into the hall, Xiao Yan raised his eyes and looked around. He saw that there were quite a number of people sitting in it. They smiled and talked to each other, as if it was a pleasant meeting.
Standing near the door, Xiao Yan's gaze swept across the interior of the hall and was somewhat surprised to find that not only Liu Ling and the Little Princess were present, but even Ya Fei was among them. She is currently wearing a red dress. A snow-white fur coat covered her shoulders, adding a hint of elegance and luxury to her appearance. Her beautiful and dazzling curves caused quite a number of male gazes to quietly dart towards her.
"It looks like I came at an inopportune time"
Observing this lively hall, Xiao Yan helplessly shook his head. He was just about to turn around and return when the gentle voice of a woman suddenly sounded from his side, "Master Yan Xiao, since you are here, why don't you go in and rest for a while."
Hearing that voice, Xiao Yan tilted his head and stared at the refined beauty standing beside the pillar. Her indifferent face involuntarily became slightly warmer. However, following after that, his face once again showed his indifference as he said, "No need. Nalan xiao-jie, I like silence and really don't enjoy this kind of scenery. "
The beauty that appeared beside the pillar was naturally the most precious person of the Nalan clan, Nalan Yanran. She was currently standing beautifully near the pillar. Her beautiful and incomparable face contained a gentle smile. Wide sleeves, moon-colored clothes that only the Misty Cloud Sect members could wear, sometimes showed graceful curves underneath. When comparing her figure, she did not appear any worse than Ya Fei. However, their auras were very different.
Looking at the current Nalan Yanran, Xiao Yan could not help but acknowledge that during these three years, he had been, she had indeed changed from a spoiled young man back then to a current adult woman who had a delicate presence. For such a woman, it would not be strange if someone said that she was seduced by all the men within thousands of kilometers.
However, regardless of how Nalan Yanran changed, being imprinted in Xiao Yan's mind like a brand was always a spoiled girl who forcefully broke off the engagement in the Xiao clan, she said, made things difficult for her father at the time. Therefore, it was difficult for Xiao Yan to show a good expression to her.
"Master Yan Xiao, I heard that during the internal tests of the Alchemist Association this time, your results were quite good." Nalan Yanran had seen Xiao Yan's cold face every time they met for these few days. Therefore, Nalan Yanran did not retreat due to his current expression. He slowly walked forward and said with a smile, "Congratulations."
As he sniffed the scent enveloping around him, Xiao Yan's footsteps moved to the other side without anyone noticing. Xiao Yan did not find it strange for him to know the results of the internal tests of the Alchemist Association. With the strength of the Nalan clan in the Jia Ma Empire, it was not difficult to know about this little bit of information. Moreover, to please her heart, what Liu Ling would not say
"Luck" Xiao Yan said, shaking his head weakly. He spoke as if he appreciated every word like precious gold, only spending little by little. His gaze did not even turn to Nalan Yanran as he spoke; he remained silent.
Xiao Yan's indifference isolating those who were far away from him caused Nalan Yanran to feel a slight headache. For many years, the young man in front of him was the first man to treat him so coldly. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, intending to stop talking. However, he was about to step away when a gentle laugh that could make men feel their legs weakening suddenly sounded behind them.
"Hehe, Nalan xiao-jie, there are many people waiting for you inside. You are chatting casually with someone here. "
Hearing this familiar laughter, Xiao Yan turned his head. He looked at the dazzling woman who was carrying a cup of red wine and lazily leaned against the door. His cold and indifferent face melted slightly.
"Hello Mr. Yan Xiao. We meet again." Ya Fei smiled and walked forward as she waved her transparent wine glass at Xiao Yan. Her long and beautiful eyelashes exuded the cunning of a fox demon.
"Why? Are Mister Yan Xiao and Ya Fei close? " Hearing Ya Fei greeting, Nalan Yanran's brows twitched without leaving a trace as he asked with a smile.
"Yan Xiao and I have known each other for several years and our relationship is quite good." Ya Fei said and smiled again. His eyes twirled and swept towards Xiao Yan as he said with a smile on his face, "Am I right, Mister Yan Xiao?"
Xiao Yan shrugged his shoulders and took the winecup from Ya Fei's hand carelessly. After which, she emptied it into her mouth in front of her rather red pretty face. He said with a smile, "Why are you here?"
Ya Fei grabbed the wine glass from Xiao Yan's hand and angrily said with a slightly red face, "You're really too rude …"
Xiao Yan smiled as he looked at the red and slender face of Ya Fei. The enchanting beauty of the latter really moved people's hearts. No wonder returning to Wu Tan City, there were many men pushing until their heads were injured as they rushed to the auction house to see Ya Fei's appearance.
"First, you also experienced such symptoms. An old bull eating a soft glass was not a good act .. "Hand Xiao Yan slowly stroked his chin as he suddenly thought mischievously in his heart. TL: An old bull ate a soft glass = an old man who had a woman much younger than him
Nalan Yanran stood to one side and looked at these two people who had some teasing marks. Her beautiful face became a little unnatural. He had originally thought that Xiao Yan's coldness was caused by his character. However, when he saw the warmth in his smile between him and Ya Fei, he saw that it was simply no coldness that he had while taking care of her.
"Mr Yan Xiao, Ya Fei xiao-jie, you can continue chatting. I'll go first. Sorry." Nalan Yanran bowed slightly at the two of them, turned around and walked into the large hall, leaving a moving figure of his back for them to see.
As he looked at the back of Nalan Yanran, who had left, Xiao Yan had no intention of staying any longer. He pursed his lips and tasted the remaining taste of the red wine in his mouth.
"Little person. You have the courage to really make use of big sister .. "After Nalan Yanran leaves, Ya Fei's brows become vertical as she spoke to Xiao Yan in annoyance.
Xiao Yan's gaze swept over Ya Fei's face and finally stopped on those tempting red lips. He recalled the interesting thought of the two of them drinking from the same wine glass just a moment ago. A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
As her mouth was stared at by Xiao Yan, Ya Fei naturally knew what she was thinking. Immediately, a shameful redness appeared on her pretty face as she stomped her feet and scolded, "If you keep acting weird, don't blame the older sister for yelling your real name."
"The matter of Grandpa Nalan gradually recovering was a big thing in the Nalan clan. As business partners of the Nalan clan, we, the Primer clan are certainly among those invited. " Ya Fei faced the inside of the hall and stroked her snow-white chin. He smiled and said, "Naturally, other than us Primer clan, the people within are mostly quite famous powers in Jia Ma Holy City."
"Che, they have already started celebrating when ‘Searing Poison’ has not even been completely eliminated? Isn't this too early? " Hearing that information, Xiao Yan could not help but shake his head and say with curved lips.
"Ha ha's. This is also because Grandpa Nalan trusts in your abilities. Although, even I did not expect that you can actually remove ‘Pungent Poison’ from Grandpa Nalan's body. You should know that it is ‘Poison Membara’ that even Pill-King Gu He has a headache. Now, news about you is being spread among the many different powers in the empire. " Ya Fei's pretty eyes looked at Xiao Yan as she said in surprise. Back then, when he recommended that he come to the Nalan clan, he simply adopted the thought of giving it a try. He never thought that Xiao Yan could really cure Grandpa Nalan.
"If it wasn't for those ‘Seven Water Spirit Green Magic’, I wouldn't be here .." Xiao Yan's gaze swept over the large hall as he replied faintly.
"You have also seen Nalan Yanran, but you are much calmer than I thought." Ya Fei said and gave a mischievous smile.
"The person who saw it was Yan Xiao and not Xiao Yan .." Xiao Yan crossed his ten fingers. His gaze looked at the delicate woman who had been the center of attention as he walked into the hall. His pitch-black eyes contained a chill.
Ya Fei sighed and shook her head. He did not keep asking about this matter. Instead, he said with a smile again, "Let's go. Come in and see. Our clan head really wants to meet you, an incredible young man who can make Old Hai show fear. "
"Not interested."
"Please. Little friend, Big Sister has helped you a lot. You can't cause Big Sister to lose face .. "Seeing that Xiao Yan intends to leave, Ya Fei's delicate hand is put together and she keeps shaking it …
"Ah, you made people make foolish decisions .." Ya Fei was born with a dazzling aura. Adding this little girl in that way, Xiao Yan could only smile bitterly and shake his head at this visual attack. He waved his hand and helplessly said, "Alright. Come on and see."
Seeing Xiao Yan agree, excitement immediately appeared on Ya Fei's pretty face. The little girl's face disappeared. He then turned around and elegantly led the way ahead. Seeing this quick change of his, Xiao Yan smiled bitterly and sighed. He can only follow her.
They walked through the main door. The noise inside once again caused Xiao Yan to frown slightly. Ya Fei knew she liked the calmness and hurriedly reached out her delicate hand to pull her quickly through the crowd.
With Ya Fei's appearance, it was only natural that she would easily attract people's attention. Immediately, many gazes were shot out. When these gazes saw Ya Fei and Xiao Yan's hands put together, they became blank for a moment. They immediately looked at the ordinary-looking Xiao Yan with a strange look. The current Ya Fei could also be considered a famous person in the Jia Ma Holy City. At such an age, he had already taken control of the Primer Auction House Headquarters. This was the first time this had happened in the Primer clan. In addition, he managed the auction house until it was neat. This caused many people who called her a flower vase to be extremely shocked. TL: Flower vase – is used to describe beautiful women who have no brain
Although Ya Fei was warm on the surface and seemed very easy to talk to, the people who knew her knew that this enchanting and amazing creature had some kind of resistance against men. It was indeed easy to become an ordinary friend, but if one wanted to advance to the next stage, it was fraught with difficulties. Therefore, when they saw that Ya Fei was actually holding hands with a man whose appearance was not good, their gazes were naturally a little strange.
Of course, with Ya Fei's appearance and aura, there was no shortage of admirers in the hall. The gazes that these people used to see Xiao Yan were filled with a sour taste and fury.
The various types of gazes in the surroundings did not cause any changes on Xiao Yan's face. He let Ya Fei pull him as she pleased as his expression calmly held that hot look.
As they passed through the crowd, Ya Fei's footsteps suddenly came to a halt. Xiao Yan's gaze leaped over him and stared at the quiet chair in the corner. At that place, a white-haired old man smiled as he conversed with the people around him. His somewhat firm old face slightly showed dignity.
He is the head of our Primer clan, Primer Tengshan. Ya Fei gently introduced. After which, he seemed to sense something and quickly released Xiao Yan's hand. Her delicate fingers pulled the black hair on her forehead. Standing behind him, Xiao Yan could see that the soft end of his ears had become much redder.
Oh. Xiao Yan randomly nodded his head. He followed Ya Fei and slowly walked onto the platform. After that, his footsteps stopped. Ya Fei then quickly stepped forward, bowed her body and gently said something to the old man's ears.
A moment later, the old man smiled and nodded. He raised his head, looked at Xiao Yan and stood up. He smiled and said, "Young friend Yan Xiao. I've heard of you for a long time and it's nice to finally meet you. I am the head of the Primer clan, Primer Tengshan. "
"I'm just a person without a name. How can I be something precious to be noticed by the Tengshan Clan Head? " Xiao Yan smiled and said.
"There aren't many people in the Jia Ma Empire who can receive such treatment from Old Hai. How can your young friend be considered nameless? " Said Primer Tengshan with a smile again.
Xiao Yan smiled without speaking. He quietly muttered in his heart, "It seems that Hai Bo Dong's relationship with the Primer clan is not an ordinary one. Don't tell me that old man is also a member of the Primer clan? "
"Ke Ke, young friend Yan Xiao, please sit down." Primer Tengsan smiled and gave the seat beside him to Xiao Yan. He retreated slightly, smiled and said after he saw Xiao Yan accept his offer, "Young friend Xiao Yan, your results in the Alchemist Association test this time around are quite good. Congratulations."
"Ah, I wonder if this Alchemist Association is deliberately leaking information or if their secret keeping skills are so bad. Why did everyone know ... "Hearing Primer Tengshan's words, Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly. He could only pretend and be polite.
"During the period of time that young friend Yan Xiao was in Jia Ma Holy City, you could go straight and look for Ya Fei if there was something you needed help with, especially since you and him are old friends." Primer Tengshan said with a smile. Among his words, he described the relationship of Xiao Yan and Ya Fei in a very ambiguous way.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan tilted his head and noticed Ya Fei who had raised the red wine and tasted it elegantly. Perhaps he understood the meaning between Primer Tengshan's words. Under the reflection of the red wine, her dazzling beautiful face became an increasingly attractive sleek red.
Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly. He could only give an unclear response.
After Hai Bo Dong's reminder, Primer Tengshan was currently thinking of all the different methods to become closer to Xiao Yan. The usual stern expression had been drawn. Replacing him was a very warm smile. That gentle demeanor caused those nearby who were familiar with Primer Tengshan to be dumbfounded. They began to secretly guess the identity of Xiao Yan in their hearts.
Being the clan head, Primer Tengshan was naturally quite talkative. Moreover, there was still Ya Fei who occasionally smiled and gently interrupted the conversation. The atmosphere here looks very harmonious.
