"Ahem." The white-robed old man coughs lightly, stands up and archs his hand at Xiao Zhan , smiling " Mr. Xiao, actually this time I come with a request!"
"Oh, Mr. Ge Ye, if there is something I can do for you, please just say it, if it is within my reach, I will do it anyway." Xiao Zhan dares not give this man a cold shoulder, and hastily stands up and says politely, but since he does not know what the old man actually asked for, he does not dare to say too much.
"Oh, Mr. Xiao, you should know about this lady?" Ge Ye smiles slightly and points to the young girl beside him and asks with a smile.
"Uh ... forgive my clumsy eyes, I don't know this lady ..." upon hearing this , Xiao Zhan freezes, and then he looks the young girl up and down,but still doesn't know who the girl is, so he shakes his head awkwardly.
When Nalan Yanran was taken as disciple by Yun Yun she was only ten years old, and after five years of cultivation in the sect of Cloud and Mist, Nalan Yanran has changed greatly and grown mature, so it no wonder that Xiao Zhan fails to recognize that this young girl in front of him is actually his future daughter-in-law.
"Ahem ... Her name is Nalan Yanran ."
"Nalan Yanran ? Mr. Nalan's granddaughter?" Xiao Zhan is stunned at first, then his face gets filled with joy, seeming to be reminded of the engagement, he hurriedly makes a gentle smile to the young girl: "So you are my niece Nalan, I'm your Uncle Xiao. We have not met for many years, please don't blame me for not recognizing you."
The situation is all of a sudden, so that all people are stunned. The three elders look at each other and can't help frowning...
"Uncle Xiao, I have never come to visit you. It's my fault, so it's me that should be blamed. How dare I blame Uncle Xiao?" Nalan Yanran smiles sweetly.
"Oh, my niece, I heard that you were taken by Yun Yun as her disciple, at first I thought it was only gossips, but later I realized that it was true, my niece is really talented ..." Xiao Zhan smiles and exclaims.
"It's just good luck ..." shallowly smiling, Nalan Yanran gets a little overwhelmed by Xiao Zhan's enthusiasm, so she dlightly pulls Ge Ye's robe under the table,.
"Oh, Mr. Xiao, the request I want to make today is related to Yanran, and this is also our sect head's request..." Ge Ye smiles, and the expression on his face gets serious when he mentions his chief.
Xiao Zhan's face also changes, and his smile disappears. As the head of Sect of Cloud and Mist, Yun Yun is really a big shot in Gamma Empire, and he, Xiao Zhan, as only a head of a medium clan, has no fame in the empire, how can Yun Yun ask him for help? Ge Ye said it is related to Nalan, what could it be?
Thinking of a grim possibility, Xiao Zhan can't help twitching his mouth, and his palm are trembling slightly, but fortunately, with the cover of the sleeve, it isn't noticed. He manages to restrain the anger in his heart, and says with a trembling voice:"Mr. Ge Ye, please just say it!"
"Ahem ...", a touch of embarrassment flashes through Ge Ye's face, but remembering Yun Yun's affection for Nalan Yanran , he forces himself to smile: " Mr. Xiao, you know that the Sect of Cloud and Mist is of a strict sect rule, and our head has high expectations on Yanran, and now she has already been treated as the successor of Ms. Yun... and because of some special rules, the successor of our head is not allowed to have engagement with other men until she takes over the sect... ..."
"Ms. Yun has found that Nalan still has an engagement with Xiao Yan, so ... so I would like to ask to you to ... break off this marriage."
"Crack!" The jade cup in Xiao Zhan's hand is turned into a handful of powder.
In the hall, the atmosphere falls silent, and the three elders are also shocked by Ge Ye's words, but when they catch on, they immediately cast their sarcastic they eyesight on Xiao Zhan.
"Hey, hey, being forced to break off your marriage by these uninvested guests, you will lose all your dignity in our clan!"
Some young men and young girls are not aware of Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran 's engagement, but after inquiring about it with their parents beside them, they can't help scoffing and also put on a mockery face...
Looking at Xiao Zhan 's gloomy face, Nalan Yanran does not dare to look up and lowers her head, her fingers twisting together nervously.
"Mr. Xiao, I know that this request goes a little bit too far, but please consider it , it's our head's request..." with a helpless sigh, Ge Ye says.
Xiao Zhan clenches his fist, a stream of cyan battle Qi gradually covers his body, and finally it converges into an illusory lion head above Xiao Zhan's head.
That's the best method in Xiao Clan: the Wind of Crazy Lion! It's a Xuan-ranked mid-level method!
Looking at the reaction of Xiao Zhan , Ge Ye's complexion also turns solemn. He put his body in front of Nalan Yanran , and his hands clench like hawks claws - green battle Qi also converges and rises around his hands like small but harsh swords.
It's a profound method from Sect of Cloud and Mist: The Cyan-wood sword! It's a Xuan-ranked low-level method!
With the breakout of the two men's breath, the faces of those young people whose ranks are relatively low turns pale, then and they feel their chests get tight .
Just as Xiao Zhan 's breath become more and more rapid, the voice of the three elder burst out like a thunderclap in the hall: " Xiao Zhan , stop it! You mustn't forget that you are the head of the clan of Xiao !"
Xiao Zhan's body stiffened, and then the battle Qi on his body slowly converges and finally disappears completely.
Sitting back on the chair with his buttocks, Xiao Zhan looks at Nalan Yanran, who keeps an indifferent face, and bows his head without saying anything. After a while of silence, he says in a undemonstrative voice: "My niece, what a courage you have! It's rally admirable of Nalan Su to have a offspring like you!"
Nalan's body slightly trembles, and she murmurs, "Uncle Xiao ..."
"Oh, just call me Mr. Xiao. How dare I be your uncle, you are the successor of the Sect of Cloud and Mist and later you will be a great woman on battle Qi continent, and compared with you, my son is really nobody, so he is indeed not good enough for you ... " waving his hand, Xiao Zhan says in a cold tone.
"Thank you, Mr. Xiao, for your consideration." upon hearing this , Ge Ye gets overjoyed and smileds at Xiao Zhan and says, "Mr. Xiao , my sect knows that this request is a bit rude, so our head has asked me to bring you this as an apologize !"
Ge Ye reaches out and shows a ring on his finger, a green jade box appears from nowhere to his hands...
Carefully opening the box, a exotic fragrance immediately fill the hall, the smell raises all the people's spirit.
The three elders curiously stretch their heads and look inside the jade box, and then their bodies jolt and cry out in a shocked voice, "Elixir: Qi cohesioner ?"
