Following the sunlit path that stretched out from the crack of the door, a thin young man slowly walked in. He passed by the large-bodied people whose hands carried weapons as if they did not exist. Finally, he slowly passed by the side of Jia Bi Lie and Aoba Padun whose faces were filled with dull faces.
The atmosphere was so silent, even the crows and sparrows did not dare to make a sound. Only the sound of a slightly hasty breath could be heard.
Under everyone's gaze, the young man slowly came in front of everyone of the Xiao clan. He looked down, looked at the old man, who was so excited that he cried, and bowed slightly.
"Xiao .. Xiao Yan." Under the support of the clan members behind him, the first elder excitedly looked at the young and handsome face before him, that has a bit of immaturity and a stiffer line compared to two years ago. His voice trembled involuntarily as he said, "Is that really you?"
Xiao Yan raised his head, and looked at the old face that he had always wanted to stomp hard on in the past. He smiled and nodded, feeling a lament in his heart. After two years of training, he had indeed become much more mature. The grudge he held back then also paled with the flow of time. No matter how one wanted to say it, this clan of his had a blood relationship that was difficult to remove.
"First elder, it really is young master Xiao Yan!"
"Young Master Xiao Yan is back! Our Xiao Clan is saved! " The face of the Xiao clan members supporting the first elder revealed wild excitement. They were so excited that their mouths could no longer speak the words they wanted to say.
As they examined Xiao Yan's face, they could still see some familiar lines from two years ago, the members of the Xiao clan, whose spirits had been extremely strained for the past two days, he said, finally sighing as if they had been freed from the heavy burden. Soon, a joyous atmosphere replaced the previous despair. Some of those with weaker mental strength could not help but let out excited cries.
The second and third elders looked at each other. Their hearts quietly sighed in relief. Their gazes stared at the indifferent, smiling, young, and handsome faces and nodded their heads in a pleased manner. After two years of training, this generation of eye-piercing young clansmen who failed to show restraint finally found a way to weaken his strength.
Something too stiff can easily be broken. Expressing one's strength excessively is not a good thing. Hiding the precious sword in his box and using the sword aura in secret was the correct way.
Compared to the cheers of everyone in the Xiao clan, the Jia Bi Lie group on the opposite side, who originally had an overbearing attitude, their flames instantly extinguished. Everyone looked at each other. The hands of those who held the weapon tightly could not resist shaking. During these few days, almost everyone in Wu Tan City had heard of at least ten different versions of the shocking incident of Xiao Yan who had a great fight with the Misty Cloud Sect. Everyone's heart was filled with respect for this legendary person. Now that the legendary person appeared alive in front of them, it was no wonder why people filled with this killing intent would feel terror.
"Jia Bi Lie, you bastard. Didn't you say that Xiao Yan has been secretly killed by the Misty Cloud Sect? Why is he still alive? " Aoba Padun's eyes stared at the skinny back facing him. A fear that was hard to hide flashed in his eyes. His face was green as he turned his body and grabbed Jia Bi Lie's collar and let out a soft and furious roar. There was a slight tremor in his voice.
The sight of Jia Bi Lie was also affixed behind in front of him. The corner of his mouth trembled repeatedly. His legs also became slightly numb at this moment. He swallowed his saliva with great difficulty. His real dark and ferocious face started to sob slightly. "How do I know. That person clearly told me that Xiao Yan had been killed. With his strength, he doesn't need to lie to me, the clan leader of a small clan, does he? "
"Don't tell me that the person in front is Xiao Yan who has come out from the grave?" Aoba Padun clenched his teeth and said angrily. Although part of the reason he agreed to deal with the Xiao clan, who was in battered condition, was, after Jia Bi Lie suppressed him was due to the fact that he had indeed been suppressed by the Xiao clan in a way that was too harsh for two people. Most of the reason was because Jia Bi Lie said that Xiao Yan was secretly killed by the powerful people of the Misty Cloud Sect. This was what caused him to nod his head and fight against the Xiao Clan.
It should be known how shocked his heart was when he first heard that the little friend of the Xiao clan actually managed to leave in one piece after a great fight with the huge being known as the Misty Cloud Sect.
It was because of this that he nodded and agreed in half-belief after Jia Bi Lie swore under the most cruel curse.
After agreeing, Xiao Yan's delayed return caused Aoba Padun to increase his confidence in Jia Bi Lie's words. However, just as he thought that everything he needed would fall into his hands, Xiao Yan who, according to what Jia Bi Lie said, should be killed, appeared in front of him. This kind of blow, and the terror carried by the human figure, caused Aoba Padun to immediately descend into a state of indignation and shock.
Jia Bi Lie's expression was pale. Currently he was now in a state where his entire body was ice-cold.
The throat of the third tier alchemist rolled slightly as his eyes looked at Xiao Yan intently. His face is easily changed. The powerful force that erupted earlier also became much more sluggish.
"Three elders, are you all okay?" Xiao Yan's back was facing people whose expressions were different from each other as he looked at the three pale-faced elders and asked gently.
"I'm fine." The first elder struggled to stand up. He shook his head and immediately bowed slowly towards Xiao Yan in a serious manner. However, when he bent down halfway, a hand propped him back up. When he raised his head, he saw a young face that was smiling gently. Immediately, his old eyes involuntarily became teary.
"First elder, you are a senior. You can't treat Xiao Yan this way. Otherwise, if Dad sees this, I'm afraid he'll blame me. " Xiao Yan smiled as he said softly.
"Some of us parents were overrated in the past. In the future, I, using my status as the first elder, guarantee you that things of the past will never be repeated again. " The first elder tilted his head, rubbed the corner of his slightly moist eyes and sighed at Xiao Yan.
"Ke Ke, my youth back then wasn't very well liked either. Especially the problem is over. I am a very forgetful person. " Xiao Yan smiled and shrugged his shoulders. The moment when he once again stepped into this clan, he knew that no matter what, his own blood belonged to this clan. At least, before he became a useless person, this clan had given him a perfect childhood.
Xiao Yan's gaze swept across the familiar face of the clan members behind the three elders. He smiled and said, "But right now, I think we should solve the problem first here before we reminisce about the good times."
"Son, careful. Jia Bi Lie and Aoba Padun were already five star Da Dou Shis whereas the old man was Liu Ling's teacher back then. He was a tier three alchemist and possessed the strength of a six star Da Dou Shi. " The first elder nodded and warned gently.
Xiao Yan smiled slightly and slowly turned around. The smile on his face gradually turned dark and cold as he turned towards Jia Bi Lie and the others.
"I haven't seen you in two years, but the blasphemy of Clan Leader Jia Bi Lie is no less than back then." Xiao Yan's gaze slowly swept over the group of people on both sides before finally directing his gaze towards Jia Bi Lie's body as he smiled and said.
Xiao Yan smiled faintly. He carelessly pulled the chair from behind him and sat down with a large posture in front of everyone. His hand grasped the handle of the ruler and pulled him firmly. The heavy ruler carried a ferocious might as it smashed into the hard stone floor. Immediately, many lines of small cracks began to spread from the point where the ruler landed.
"Chief of the Ao Ba Clan, I didn't expect you to be here either." As Xiao Yan spoke, his gaze turned to the side of Aoba Padun, whose expression continued to change.
"Ah? Oh, Ke Ke Ke, it's been two years since I saw you. The attitude of Xiao Yan's nephew became even more extraordinary. It is true that the father of the tiger does not have puppies. If big brother Xiao saw you, he would definitely be so happy that he could not keep his mouth shut. " Aoba Padun's entire body trembled when he heard Xiao Yan's voice. He hurriedly accompanied Xiao Yan laughing. TL: tiger father has no puppies – means someone strong/great has no weak/useless children
"You can swallow your shit." Xiao Yan glanced at him faintly. His hand slowly rubbed the hilt of the Heavy Xuan Ruler in his hand. His voice quietly became dense, "I just want to know exactly what you two want to do by bringing your people to my Xiao clan."
"Ah? That's ha ha. Nephew Xiao Yan, today's matter is entirely a misunderstanding. We came because we heard that the Xiao clan has encountered some problems. Therefore, we took the time to come look around. You should also know that we have quite a number of areas where we cooperate with the Xiao clan. It is only natural that we should come and show some attention now that something has happened to the Xiao clan. " Aoba Padun's expression once again paled slightly as he hurriedly spoke with a smile after hearing the thick and cold killing intent hidden within Xiao Yan's voice.
Beside him, Jia Bi Lie expression suddenly changed between white and green.
"Is that so?"
Xiao Yan lowered his head and laughed. His head suddenly lifted. The dark black pupils were like sharp blades, coldly staring at Aoba Padun and Jia Bi Lie. A soft and muffled voice suddenly appeared in a silent atmosphere. Immediately, green-colored hot flames surged out from Xiao Yan's body without any warning. Within seconds, the temperature in the hall suddenly rose. The members of the Xiao clan who were close to Xiao Yan hurriedly retreated.
"If the two of you are planning something to go against our Xiao clan, then you two don't need to leave today." Xiao Yan's voice was extremely ice-cold, as a green-colored flame enveloped his entire body.
As Aoba Padun, Jia Bi Lie, and the tier three alchemists watched the green-colored flames rise from within Xiao Yan's body with dry mouths, terror appeared on their faces as they retreated two steps.
"Nephew Xiao Yan, don't misunderstand me. I do not have the slightest bit of bad thoughts towards the Xiao clan. Today's matter is entirely a misunderstanding. Now I'll be leaving soon! " Aoba Padun swallowed a mouthful of saliva. His voice became a little sharp due to his fear.
After saying this, he hurriedly waved his hand. Ten more big men carrying weapons hurriedly approached towards him. After which, a group of people carefully walked out of the large hall.
"Chief of the Junior Clan? You can't let him go. These two days, quite a number of our clan members were injured by them. Some of them even "When he saw the retreating Aoba Padun, the third elder, who had an impatient character, could not help but say. Before he could say everything he wanted, however, he was stopped by the wave of Xiao Yan's hand. Immediately, he could only swallow the words in his mouth and pull them back. Seeing this way, it was clear that he had already completely treated Xiao Yan as the mainstay supporting this clan.
"You." Seeing Aoba Padun who actually wanted to withdraw in such a way, Jia Bi Lie was shocked. His face trembled a little. His body stiffened for a moment before he hurriedly turned his body around. He faced Xiao Yan who was sitting on a chair and spoke with a calm face Xiao Yan with a flattering smile, "Nephew Xiao Yan, today's matter is entirely a misunderstanding. In the future, I will personally visit to apologize. There is still another matter in my clan today, goodbye. "
As soon as he finished speaking, he hurriedly waved his hand around and carried his subordinates away quickly.
The face of a tier three alchemist turned green as he stared at Jia Bi Lie and Aoba Padun who were both leading their subordinates and fleeing in a humiliating manner. Although his heart was also a little afraid of Xiao Yan's reputation, his arrogance as an alchemist did not allow him to leave like a dog who had lost his home. Immediately, he clenched his teeth and shouted loudly, "You all stop. The Xiao Clan was currently in a battered state. Are you all reduced to such a state just because of a child? What kind of face do you have to survive in Wu Tan City in the future? "
After hearing the alchemist's cry, Jia Bi Lie and Aoba Padun stopped their footsteps. After their minds hesitated for a moment, however, a horrifying scream sounded in the large hall. The two could not help but turn their heads and take a look, only to surprisingly see a tier three alchemist wrapped by the current seven-colored energy film. Moreover, the seven-colored liquid actually repeatedly dripped from the energy layer. The seven-colored liquid seemed to have extremely strong corrosive properties. When every drop of liquid fell onto the alchemist's body, it would cause a curdling scream.
Under the many shocked gazes in the large hall, the body of a tier three alchemist was being corroded at a speed visible to the naked eye. After ten more seconds, the seven-colored liquid had filled half a layer of energy. In it, the alchemist's body and even his bones were completely corroded.
"Sniffed." The extremely miserable state in which a tier three alchemist died caused the throats of the people in the great hall to roll involuntarily.
"Clang", the energy film suddenly exploded. A seven-colored liquid gushed out and slowly began to merge into a graceful beautiful body in front of everyone's gaze. A moment later, a dazzling beauty appeared in the large hall. She raised her beautiful pupils lightly. The density within it would cause the body of anyone who made contact with them to shiver.
The teeth of Jia Bi Lie and Aoba Padun trembled as they watched the dazzling beauty. At this moment, a name that almost made one become paralyzed appeared in their hearts.
"Queen of Queen Medusa."
"Nephew Xiao Yan, goodbye. Today's matter was clearly a misunderstanding. "
Jia Bi Lie cupped his trembling hands towards Xiao Yan who was sitting quietly on the chair like a wooden pillar. Jia Bi Lie and Aoba Padun finally could not resist the terror in their hearts. They led their subordinates and swarmed in an embarrassing manner. They've made their decision. Once they left this place, they would immediately pack their things and go somewhere far away from Wu Tan City!
As he looked at Jia Bi Lie and the others who were swarming out of the large hall in panic, Xiao Yan, who had remained silent, finally waved his hand gently. His calm voice caused everyone in the Xiao clan to feel a sense of excitement that came out from overwhelming satisfaction.
"Don't leave anyone!"
When Xiao Yan's voice descended, the figure of Queen Medusa in the hall slowly became an illusion. The large door to the hall let out a ‘hard’ sound and was tightly shut. Immediately after this, horrifying cries repeatedly rang out outside the door.
