Born With Peach Blossom Luck
At the same time, located at the border angle of the Gama Empire and the two neighboring great empires. The renowned ancient academy stood quietly.
Its immense prestige and unparalleled strength commanded respect even from behemoths like the three great empires, who dared not show the slightest disrespect or negligence.
On a secluded mountain peak within the ancient academy, beside a cliff, a young girl in a light cyan dress stood elegantly. The gentle breeze swept her waist-length black hair, and the corners of her dress fluttered, revealing the perfect curves of her figure.
Xiao Yan had been gone from Canaan Academy for over a year. The former freshmen had become seniors, and the old students of the Xuan class, once defeated by Xiao Yan, had entered the Inner Academy to cultivate.
Xun Er quietly gazed in the direction of the Gama Empire. Whenever she looked that way, a warm current flowed through her heart, for in that direction was the person she cared about.
After a long silence, the girl suddenly spoke, her ethereal and melodious voice giving people a strange feeling of being cleansed.
"Ling Lao."
A black shadow appeared behind Xun Er, kneeling on one knee and respectfully saying, "Miss, what are your orders?"
The black shadow was none other than Ling Ying, who had been driven away by Xiao Yan because his soul force had reached the late Mortal Realm.
"I want Ling Lao to go to the Royal Capital of the Gama Empire. It's been over a year since Xiao Yan-gege left. Calculating the time, he should have arrived at the Royal Capital for the appointment," Xun Er said in a clear and cold voice, as if she were a saint.
Ling Ying was silent for a moment before saying, "Miss, with Young Master Xiao Yan's soul perception ability, I'm afraid I'll be discovered if I get within a few hundred meters or even a kilometer of him."
Ling Ying was helpless! Xiao Yan's soul perception was too strong, even stronger than that of an ordinary Dou Huang.
He himself cultivated Dou Qi of the dark attribute, and was particularly good at hiding himself, but he was discovered by a Da Dou Shi, an eighteen-year-old boy.
Frustration, frustration!
"Then don't get within a kilometer," Xun Er said indifferently.
Ling Ying was silent for a moment before saying, "Miss, in my opinion, Young Master Xiao Yan doesn't like being investigated."
It was actually very simple, because Xiao Yan had directly driven Ling Ying away after discovering him, which proved that Xiao Yan was extremely sensitive and didn't like being followed or investigated.
"So this time, I hope Ling Lao won't be discovered again. Xiao Yan-gege doesn't like me sending people to protect him." Xun Er had been with Xiao Yan for many years, so she naturally knew his character.
Although Xiao Yan was usually carefree and mingled with the clan members, without the airs of a Young Clan Leader, he valued dignity very much. Xiao Yan would definitely not like the idea of Xun Er sending people to protect him in secret.
"Miss, forgive me for being blunt. With Young Master Xiao Yan's talent and strength, I'm afraid there are only a handful of people in the entire Gama Empire who can pose a fatal threat to him," Ling Ying said.
Hearing this, Xun Er pouted slightly, with a hint of annoyance and resentment, and said, "Xiao Yan-gege is born with peach blossom luck, and easily attracts bees and butterflies."
"Uh... I understand." Ling Ying had a wry smile on his face. If Xun Er was troubled by this kind of thing, and it was reported back to the family, it was estimated that the entire family would be in an uproar.
If Hai Bo Dong and others heard Xun Er's words, they would definitely say: Hey, she's really good at judging people.
...
At this time, in the Nalan Mansion, in the main hall. As the head of the Nalan Family, Nalan Su stood up abruptly when he heard the news from his servant that Xiao Yan had arrived!
In the spacious hall, besides Nalan Su, there were also a dozen Alchemists wearing robes of the same color. On their chests, without exception, they all wore Tier 3 Alchemist Badges.
However, most of these Tier 3 Alchemists were middle-aged, and two of them even had gray hair.
Originally, Nalan Yanran was also here with her father to receive the Alchemists who came from all over the country, but after some discussion, she was sent to the Mittel Family to seek help from the Mittel Auction House, which had branches in various cities across the country, to find Alchemists with Strange Flames, and just happened to leave.
"Master, Master, Young Master Xiao Yan has arrived," a servant-like person ran over and said.
"Quick, invite him in." Nalan Su raised his hand to the Alchemists sitting opposite him, who were confused, and said, "Everyone, I'm sorry, we have already found an Alchemist. But we will still give you all a thank you."
All the Alchemists looked at each other, not in a hurry to leave, all wanting to see who had such ability, that someone could actually cure the Branding Poison that even Gu He was helpless against?
...
Before long, Xiao Yan, who had been dragged along, was pulled into the inner hall by the old butler. His originally neat hair had become a bird's nest, messy and disheveled.
Seeing Xiao Yan appear, even though they hadn't seen each other for eight years, Nalan Su recognized him at a glance. He rushed over and grabbed Xiao Yan's hands, and asked in a deep voice, "Nephew, I heard Yanran say you have a Strange Flame, is that true?"
The Nalan Family had known that Xiao Yan was an Alchemist for more than two years, after all, Xiao Yan's public alchemy had made it known throughout Wutan City.
Xiao Yan looked at Nalan Su, who was much bigger than him, and nodded, "Yes."
Seeing Xiao Yan nod, everyone in the Nalan Family was excited, saying 'The Old Family Head is finally saved'. Nalan Su's eyes were filled with tears, and he said with some apology, "I know Yanran did some things that were sorry to your Xiao Clan. I apologize to you on her behalf. In the future, whatever you need, as long as our Nalan Family can do it, we will never refuse."
Xiao Yan was immediately confused, and said awkwardly, "It's a small matter to me, but I want to ask: what exactly happened?"
Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Nalan Su was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Didn't you come because you received the message we sent?"
Xiao Yan shook his head and said, "I just happened to come to Gama Holy City, and then came to visit Uncle Nalan and you on behalf of my father, to say hello."
Xiao Yan also showed the fruit basket in his hand, indicating that he really came to visit and didn't know what had happened.
"Come with me, I'll explain to you as we go."
After Nalan Su's explanation, Xiao Yan finally understood what had happened. It turned out that Nalan Jie had been afflicted with the Branding Poison several years ago, and had barely managed to suppress it with his Dou Wang's Dou Qi. Until recently, the Branding Poison suddenly erupted, almost costing Nalan Jie his life.
Even Pill King Gu He was unable to cure it, and could only provide medicinal pills to prolong his life, saying that to completely eradicate the Branding Poison, a Strange Flame would need to enter his body and burn away the poison.
Not long after, Nalan Yanran returned from her travels and learned of this matter. Remembering the flame Xiao Yan had used when fighting Mo Cheng in Yan City, which seemed somewhat like a Strange Flame, she sent people to search for Xiao Yan.
However, after searching everywhere, they couldn't find Xiao Yan, and they didn't expect that Xiao Yan was actually in Mo City Rock, and even thought that Xiao Yan was deliberately hiding from them.
Therefore, when he saw Xiao Yan arrive at the Nalan Mansion, the old butler was so excited, thinking that Xiao Yan had finally forgiven them and come to save him.
Xiao Yan smiled wryly after hearing this. Although Nalan Yanran's annulment of their engagement was very rude, in the end, the Xiao Clan was not affected in any way, and he had even beaten Nalan Yanran.
Slowly approaching the large bed, Xiao Yan's gaze swept over the bed. The Nalan Jie, who he remembered as being stern and imposing, was now as thin as a bamboo stick, skin wrapped around bones, with a large patch of gray-black color faintly visible on his face, and even a hint of deathly aura.
"It's very serious."
