Young Master Xiao Yan is Here

Hai Bo Dong, like a sly old fox, said with a smile, "We agreed that if the Mittel Family is in trouble, you would help. But you're also a bird without feet; how will I contact you when the time comes? Besides, you need a middleman to collect the medicinal herbs."

Xiao Yan stared at Hai Bo Dong's foxy face and said, "That's not how you make contact, right?"

Hai Bo Dong used sound transmission to say, "Look at this girl. She has looks, figure, and can manage things. She's especially prone to attracting bees and butterflies. This time, it's just a small Dou Shi (Battle Master), but what if a Dou Huang (Battle Master) comes next time and you're not around? The Mittel Family won't care about these things."

Xiao Yan rolled his eyes at Hai Bo Dong. He didn't expect Hai Bo Dong to play this card! On the Dou Qi Continent, arranged marriages are very common because marriage is the best means of alliance.

With Xiao Yan's qualifications, if it weren't for the engagement with Nalan Yanran, matchmakers would be knocking on Xiao Zhan's door every day, talking about how great this girl or that girl is. Even the big families from neighboring cities would rush to offer their daughters to Xiao Yan.

It's only because of the marriage alliance with the Nalan Family, one of the three great families, that Xiao Yan hasn't experienced these things.

Xiao Yan transmitted his voice, "Aren't you here?"

"Heh heh heh, this old man has already given you everything. Naturally, I'm no longer a member of the Mittel Family, and besides, my surname isn't Mittel," Hai Bo Dong said, stroking his beard.

Xiao Yan stood up with a look of indignation, glancing at Ya Fei, who was already frightened and at a loss, her mind blank and stunned.

Alas, my heart already belongs to another girl.

He glared at Hai Bo Dong and said, "You're ruthless. I don't want my half, okay?"

Xiao Yan didn't stay any longer. He directly unfolded his Eagle's Wings and flew away from the window, somewhat like a hasty retreat.

Watching Xiao Yan fly away, everyone present was still trying to process what had just happened. What exactly was the situation now? Ya Fei looked at Xiao Yan flying away, and a strange feeling arose in her heart. She didn't know if she was relieved that she wasn't casually arranged as a tool for marriage, or disappointed that Xiao Yan didn't agree. Her heart was filled with mixed emotions.

Hai Bo Dong looked at the somewhat dejected Ya Fei and said softly, "That kid didn't refuse."

Hearing Hai Bo Dong's sound transmission, Ya Fei's cheeks flushed red, and she didn't know where to put her hands. Ya Fei, who was usually eloquent on the auction stage, seemed to stutter today and couldn't say a word.

Upon hearing this, Mittel Tengshan's expression changed slightly, and he muttered to himself with some doubt, "Hai Lao, I think even if he's very talented, talent doesn't necessarily blossom. Isn't this a bit too risky? Using half of the auction house to tie him down."

"Not yet blossomed? Don't underestimate his energy. If he goes crazy, I can't stop him either," Hai Bo Dong said with a solemn expression. Now, whenever he thought of the Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus that Xiao Yan had created, his heart would palpitate. That power was simply too terrifying.

If Xiao Yan reached the Dou Ling (Fighting Spirit) stage, he definitely wouldn't be able to stop him.

Seeing Hai Bo Dong's rare solemn expression, the elders in the hall and Mittel Tengshan couldn't help but feel a sense of horror. Knowing the former's temperament, they naturally knew that in the entire Gama Empire, there wouldn't be more than three people qualified to be treated like this by Hai Bo Dong. But those people were all old, immortal fellows, while the young man named Xiao Yan was only less than twenty years old.

"Don't worry, Hai Lao, I will strictly instruct the people in the family not to form grudges with him, and try to form good relationships," Mittel Tengshan said solemnly, nodding heavily. He wouldn't dare to act rashly in the face of such a major event.

Mittel Tengshan turned to Ya Fei and said, "Ya Fei, from now on, the auction house in the Royal Capital will be entirely under your management. No matter what, try your best to maintain a good relationship with Xiao Yan, and provide him with whatever medicinal herbs he needs."

"Yes, Great Elder, Ya Fei understands."

Just then, a maid knocked on the door and said, "Miss Ya Fei, Nalan Yanran from the Nalan Family is requesting an audience."

!!!! Hearing the name Nalan Yanran, Hai Bo Dong frowned and asked, "Nalan Yanran? What is she doing at the auction house?"

Ya Fei bowed and said, "Reporting to the Supreme Elder, a few days ago, the poison in the body of Nalan Jie, the head of the Nalan Family, erupted. They are searching nationwide for an Alchemist with a Strange Flame to detoxify him and intend to ask our auction house's branches nationwide to help find one."

Hai Bo Dong immediately revealed a wonderful expression upon hearing this, saying with a wry smile, "Heh heh heh, the affairs of this world are truly interesting."

"Hai Lao, is there a problem with this?" Ya Fei asked softly.

"The Alchemist with a Strange Flame that the Nalan Family is looking for just ran away."

"Oh, ah?!!!"

The atmosphere in the hall became strange once again.

Xiao Yan was forced to land in an uninhabited place because he had attracted attention from many parties shortly after he flew, and even a Dou Huang (Battle Master)-level Soul force had swept over him.

That Dou Huang (Battle Master)'s Soul force should be Jia Xing Tian, the old monster of the Gama Empire that Hai Lao mentioned.

While thinking, Xiao Yan walked to a street where the Nalan Family was located. Regardless of the relationship between Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran, he should pay a visit since he had come to Gama Holy City.

To put it bluntly, if it weren't for the matter of breaking off the engagement, Nalan Jie would be Xiao Zhan's elder, after all, Xiao Yan's grandfather, Xiao Lin, and Nalan Jie were sworn brothers.

"Damn it, I was planning to use those things from the auction house as gifts, but Hai Lao made such a fuss that I forgot," Xiao Yan said, feeling a little embarrassed as he looked at his empty hands.

He took out some spiritual fruits obtained from the Magical Beast Mountain Range from his Storage Ring and quickly made a small fruit basket. Carrying the small fruit basket, he slowly walked towards the huge residence not far away.

When he walked closer, Xiao Yan was stunned because the gate of the Nalan Mansion was lined with people, and every one of them was an Alchemist wearing an Alchemist robe, with the lowest level being second-grade! Many of the people coming and going cast envious glances, after all, even a first-grade Alchemist is very popular in some remote cities.

"What's going on? Why are there so many Alchemists?!" Xiao Yan didn't queue up and planned to enter directly from the side.

Pushing through the crowd, Xiao Yan stepped forward. An old man who seemed to be a steward walked up to Xiao Yan. He glanced at Xiao Yan's chest and saw that he didn't have an Alchemist Badge. A trace of doubt appeared in his cloudy old eyes, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "This young friend, I am the steward of the Nalan Family. May I know if you are an Alchemist?"

Xiao Yan looked up at the old Steward standing on the steps and revealed a bright smile, saying, "I am indeed an Alchemist. However, Steward Zhao, although it has been eight years since we last met, my appearance hasn't changed that much, right?"

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, the old steward's cloudy eyes gradually cleared up. Looking at that smiling face and those clear, intelligent eyes, he recalled a clever little boy who had once visited with his father.

The two faces slowly overlapped.

"Young Master Xiao Yan!!! We've finally waited for you!! Quick, tell the master, Young Master Xiao Yan has arrived!!" The old steward seemed to be revitalized, no longer panting or seeing blurry, and shouted into the courtyard.

"Quickly tell, Young Master Xiao Yan has arrived!"

"Quickly tell the master, Young Master Xiao Yan has arrived!"

"Young Master Xiao Yan is here~~~"

Xiao Yan was immediately startled by this scene. Not to mention him, even the alchemists queuing up beside him looked at Xiao Yan, all curious about who this young man was, that he could cause such a sensation in the entire Nalan Mansion! "What's going on? Is there something I need to prepare?" Xiao Yan asked in confusion.

With a snap, the old steward grabbed Xiao Yan's arm and said seriously, "No time to explain, please follow me, Young Master Xiao Yan."

The old steward even burst out with Dou Qi, and like flying a kite, he grabbed Xiao Yan's arm and sprinted towards the residence.
