Chapter 140 Shangyun Lanzong
When Xiao Yuan returned to the imperial capital, the alchemist conference had basically come to an end, and most of the audience had already left.
Xiao Yan was not here. After asking around, Xiao Yuan found out that Xiao Yan had left early.
This is indeed Xiao Yan's temperament. He has never liked places that are too noisy.
So, Xiao Yuan returned to Xiao Mansion, and sure enough he met Ya Fei, Xiao Yan, Xiao Zhan, Hai Bodong and others here.
"Resolved?"
Hai Bodong asked without surprise.
“Yes.”
Xiao Yuan nodded and spoke concisely.
“Tsk, that’s a win.”
Haibodong raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and a smile suddenly appeared on his lips.
“Huh?”
Xiao Yuan asked slightly doubtfully after hearing this.
"After you left, Hai Lao made a bet with Jia Lao and Pharaoh, betting that you alone could deal with the gray-robed man. Haha, obviously, Hai Lao won."
Yafei on the side said with a smile.
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan shook his head helplessly. He was still making bets like this with others at his age. He was so competitive. A man would be a boy until he died, right?
"You came back just in time. I have discussed your and Yafei's affairs with your father just now and have made arrangements for you. Xiao Yan said that you two are going to Canaan College, so it would be better to choose a different date. Chongri, let’s finalize this matter tonight. Tengshan has already gone to prepare for the banquet. This is a double celebration. One is to celebrate your engagement with Ya Fei, and the other is to celebrate Xiao Yan’s victory in the Alchemist Conference. "< br>
Hai Bodong continued.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan looked at Hai Bodong with surprise on his face, and then looked at Xiao Zhan.
"Mr. Hai is right, the family is in favor of everything between you and Yafei."
Xiao Zhan nodded when he heard this and said with a smile.
But in fact, he originally wanted to ask the great elder to come with him this time, but the great elder lost his temper and did not come.
If Xiao Zhan hadn’t finalized the matter between him and Xiao Yu with the Great Elder for Xiao Yuan before he came, I’m afraid the Great Elder would have fought with Xiao Zhan for his life!
Of course, this kind of thing cannot be said at this time.
"Okay, since Hai Lao and father have already decided, let's listen to the two elders." Xiao Yuan smiled and nodded when he heard this, and then said again: "Brother Xiaoyan and I I still have something to talk about, so I’ll excuse you now.”
After saying apologetically, Xiao Yuan took Xiao Yan outside and returned Yao Lao's black ancient simple ring to Xiao Yan.
"Here, here are some prescriptions I collected from that guy. The teacher said they are still barely usable. Look back. I have to take care of myself first. Please say this for me and my father. The strength is still not enough, and relying on secret methods is not an option."
Xiao Yuan said with a headache.
"Okay, brother, these are some elixirs that I refined some time ago to strengthen the body and strengthen the body. You should be able to use it."
Xiao Yan nodded when he heard this and did not agree with Xiao Yuan. To be polite, he took out five or six jade bottles from Najie, handed them all to Xiao Yuan, and said seriously.
"Hey, okay!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan patted Xiao Yan's shoulder, nodded with a smile, then put it away, then returned to his bedroom and put on his breath adjustment posture. attitude.
After taking the elixir given by Xiao Yan previously, he closed his eyes and concentrated, and began to repair the injuries in his body.
The secret method does a lot of damage to the body, and it still needs timely treatment and recovery.
When Xiao Yuan opened his eyes again, he saw Ya Fei coming to the bedside, changed into a gorgeous black background and gold pattern cheongsam, leaning against the end of the bed, it seemed that she had been waiting for a long time .
"Sister Yafei, have you been waiting for a long time?"
Xiao Yuan smiled apologetically and asked softly.
"Haha, not bad, your aura seems to be stronger again?"
After hearing this, Yafei smiled lightly and shook her head, then asked casually.
“Well, I should be about to break through the four-star fighting master.”
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan nodded and said with a smile.
"Although I'm almost used to it, seeing your strength improve so quickly with my own eyes is still amazing."
Ya Fei shook her head helplessly, although she usually She is not very interested in practicing, but that is actually a compromise idea that cannot be helped. If she also has a talent like Xiao Yuan, then she will definitely practice every day. In the final analysis, in Dou Qi Continent, strength should still be respected !
In a business family like the Miter family, she can certainly rely on her own efforts to stand as the patriarch, but if she can have greater strength, who would want to be a person without strength and can only rely on her mind? What about ordinary people struggling to deal with things?
Ya Fei sometimes thinks about what it would be like if she could stand side by side with Xiao Yuan and face the enemy hand in hand.
"This is too slow for me!"
Xiao Yuan smiled and shook his head, jumped off the bed, and said with a shrug.
"You, don't push yourself too hard. Nalan Yanran's matter is in the past. Is there anything else I don't know about?"
Ya After hearing this, the concubine subconsciously comforted her, but then she suddenly reacted and asked thoughtfully.
“If I don’t practice to the extreme, I will definitely feel insecure. I can only say that ordinary people are not guilty, but they are guilty of having a jade.”
Xiao Yuan couldn't talk about Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, so he could only speak vaguely.
Ya Fei had a clear mind and naturally understood that it was not convenient for Xiao Yuan to talk about this matter, so she did not ask further questions. Instead, she took out a brand new white dress from Najie and handed it to Xiao Yuan.
"The clothes are ready for you, put them on."
After that, he came up and took off Xiao Yuan's clothes skillfully.
“Hey, hey, I’ll do it myself!”
At this time, in Xiao Yan's room, Xiao Yan was holding his chin in his hand, looking thoughtful.
Just now Yao Lao probably told him about Xiao Yuan’s battle process.
Xiao Yan received a lot of inspiration from it.
Combined with the twists and turns in refining the medicine just now, Xiao Yan now has a very bold idea.
But he is at home now and will have to attend a banquet later, so naturally it is not easy to try.
However, this idea was already lingering in his mind and firmly rooted.
Although that destructive wave made him frightened, it also made him feel extremely excited. If he could really do it, then he might have created an extremely powerful fighting technique.
Having an excellent brother, he now has pressure and motivation!
"Xiao Yan, let's go!"
Xiao Yuan's voice sounded from outside the door, pulling Xiao Yan back from his thoughts.
"Here we come!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yan tidied up the brand new fourth-grade alchemist robe he had just put on, opened the door, and walked out. Being able to refine the three-line Qingling Pill with such amazing means was enough for the Alchemist Guild to exempt him from the level assessment, and directly awarded him the title and badge of a fourth-grade alchemist. Even his robes were changed to a more modern one. Fits well.
This banquet did not end until the crescent moon was high. Xiao Zhan drank so much wine for the first time in his life, but he did not go crazy, he just kept talking. He is proud of Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yan. The two outstanding children are worthy of their mother's spirit in heaven.
As for the second elder, his face was also glowing. How could he have dared to imagine eating at the same table with the strong Dou Huang and the strong Dou Wang?
But now relying on these two young masters, he can not only eat, but also exchange cups and cups with such a strong man and become brothers.
It’s really sad.
The three juniors, Yafei, Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yan, were quite helpless and could only eat in silence.
It was late at night, because she knew Xiao Yuan was leaving, so Ya Fei took Xiao Yuan and ate Xuan Bing Long Xiang forcibly all night.
Xiao Yan, on the other hand, relied on the insights he gained from refining the medicine this time to reach the threshold of promotion again, and he was promoted again that night.
The next day.
Nalan Yanran looked at Xiao Yuan who came to the door in astonishment, with confusion on her face:
"You asked me if the teacher is in the Yunlan Sect? He should be here, right? What's wrong? ?”
“Oh, I have long admired the name of the Yunlan Sect, and the leader of the Yunyun Sect is also a strong fighter. I want to pay him a visit before leaving.”
Xiao Yuan’s face did not change when he heard this. Said very calmly.
"Oh, yes, then I will take you there. I don't have anything to do at home, so it's time for me to return to the sect to practice."
Nalan Yanran's eyes clearly lit up when she heard this. He said quickly.
“Isn’t this too much trouble?”
Xiao Yuan said politely when he heard this.
"It's no trouble. Just wait. I'll go talk to grandpa."
Nalan Yanran was afraid that Xiao Yuan would regret it, so she ran out without waiting for Xiao Yuan to answer.
Seeing this situation, Xiao Yuan shook his head helplessly. The little girl was indeed easy to deceive.
Ya Fei went to the auction house early in the morning to be busy, probably because she didn’t want to suffer the pain of separation.
Xiao Yan left the city early after agreeing with Xiao Yuan on the meeting place.
As for Xiao Zhan and others, they will stay in Xiao Mansion for a while to get everything going.
Looking back at the Xiao Mansion in front of him, a trace of emotion flashed in Xiao Yuan's eyes. The next time he comes again, he doesn't know when it will be.
Nalan Yanran was very fast and did not let Xiao Yuan wait long. A beautiful green figure flashed out from Nalan Mansion. The moon-white Yunlan Sect standard skirt highlighted her figure vividly. , it's a pity that Xiao Yuan doesn't care at all.
Compared with Yafei, Nalan Yanran’s figure is not worth mentioning.
Of course, you can’t just look at appearance as a person.
You have to look inside.
However, even if you look at the inside, Yafei still wins.
"The Yunlan Sect is established on Yunlan Mountain, and Yunlan Mountain is only a few dozen miles away from the imperial capital. We will arrive soon."
Nalan Yanran is obviously not a A qualified tour guide doesn't know what to say after he choked out such a sentence along the way.
On the other hand, after seeing this pair of handsome men and beautiful women, some people on the road couldn't help but look at them twice, and they couldn't help but make some comments.
The content is nothing more than that the two of them look good together.
Xiao Yuan had no feeling about this, but Nalan Yanran had various thoughts intertwined in her heart.
The two's foot strength is far beyond that of ordinary people, and their speed is naturally only a few bucks. It did not take too much time to travel dozens of miles, and they have already seen the towering mountain peaks.
Standing on the slope of the roadside, looking at the huge mountain peak at the end of the line of sight, at the foot of the mountain, the huge military camp appears rolling on the flat grass, looking through the white tents , you can vaguely see some soldiers practicing.
"That is the elite army stationed by the royal family at the foot of Yunlan Mountain. After all, the royal family is still very afraid of such a behemoth as the sect."
Seeing Xiao Yuan's eyes looking towards There, Nalan Yanran finally found the topic and explained.
"Isn't your identity very embarrassing? The old man is the Lion-Hearted Marshal of the empire, but the teacher is the head of the Yunlan Sect?"
Xiao Yuan suddenly asked curiously.
"Why are you embarrassed? Yunlan Sect will not attack the royal family. The teacher is not that kind of person, and it is impossible for me to lead the sect to confront grandpa."
Nalan Yanran Hearing this, he said matter-of-factly, with a hint of doubt in his words. He was obviously quite puzzled by Xiao Yuan's question.
“Haha, yes.”
In response, Xiao Yuan nodded, but he was noncommittal in his heart.
When Yunshan comes out, she will have no choice.
As for the elders of Yunlan Sect, many of them may have restless thoughts in their hearts.
Then the two of them followed the road and slowly approached the foot of the mountain.
Although the military camp here is extremely heavily defended, there is no way to stop passers-by who want to go up the mountain. It is also impossible to stop Nalan Yanran, the young master of the Yunlan Sect, from intensifying the conflict. Therefore, it can be said that the two of them had an unimpeded journey along the way. After being casually glanced at by a few soldiers standing guard on the roadside, they followed the road and walked into the mountains very easily.
As lush greenery began to appear on both sides, the sound of soldiers practicing in their ears gradually dissipated. They raised their heads slightly, and what appeared in front of them was the bluestone steps that spread to the end of their sight. At a glance, they looked like a ladder to the sky.
Standing at the foot of the mountain, Xiao Yuan raised his head and stared at the ancient stone steps that had existed for who knows how many years. His eyes slowly closed, and there seemed to be a faint sound of swords. , passed down crisply from the end of the stone steps, echoing quietly in the mountains and forests, like the sound of a bell, making people enchanted.
"How is it? Is the scenery nice?"
Nalan Yanran asked with a smile.
“Well, it’s indeed good.”
Xiao Yuan nodded with satisfaction, but felt a little regretful in his heart. If Yun Yun was beside him, the scenery would be even better.
At the end of the climbing stone steps, there are clouds and mist. Behind the clouds and mist, there is a huge square. The square is completely paved with huge stones of the same color. It looks simple and grand. In the center of the square, a huge stone monument stands majestically. , on the stone tablet, the names of the previous heads of the Yunlan Sect and those who have made great contributions to the sect are recorded.
Such a magnificent sect, as long as ordinary people take a look at it, they will flock to it.
It is no wonder that Yunlan Sect can have such great power and reputation. The foundation of thousands of years is indeed extraordinary.
“The momentum is indeed very good.”
Xiao Yuan nodded and praised, then walked up step by step.
Nalan Yanran also quickly followed. After returning to her sect, she was obviously more confident and said enthusiastically: "Really! How about you also join the Yunlan Sect? I I think the teacher will be very satisfied with your talent!"
Hearing this, a strange look appeared on Xiao Yuan's face.
I couldn't help but secretly think: "Although your teacher is indeed very satisfied with my talent, I'm afraid that's not what you meant when you said this, right?"
