Chapter 111 Visit from Yunlan Sect

In the early morning, a thin white mist enveloped the top of the back mountain for a long time. When the breeze blew, it suddenly brought a muffled sound of stone breaking.

In a hidden grove on the top of the back mountain, Xiao Yan retracted his right palm and looked at the gravel in front of him. "Although it is really difficult to practice this Eight Extreme Collapse, its power is indeed terrifying. If I can practice the dark power as my cousin said, I am afraid that it can really be as powerful as the earth-level fighting skills as recorded in it."

Smashing the dust on his hands, Xiao Yan muttered to himself: "I don't know when my cousin will be able to come out of retreat. With my current strength, I don't know if I can be favored by Elder Huo."

Xiao Yan took out a piece of clothing from the ring and covered his exposed skin. At this time, a familiar voice came into his ears, "Master Xiao Yan, the people from Yunlan Sect are about to arrive. The clan leader asked me to notify you to go to the reception room in advance."

"Is it almost noon?" Hearing the call of Butler Mo, Xiao Yan muttered.

The steward of Yunlan Sect handed over the visiting card yesterday, and will visit the Xiao family at noon today. Xiao Yan, the third young master of the Xiao family, naturally knew about this.

Although the visiting card did not mention why they came to visit, the letter was written by Nalan Yanran herself, and it must be related to the engagement between Nalan Yanran and Xiao Yan.

"Okay, I'll go there now." After replying a word, Xiao Yan used his body fighting skills and rushed towards the reception room.

Looking at Xiao Yan's running back, Butler Mo showed a loving smile. Seeing Xiao Yan rise again from the downfall, Butler Mo was also happy for Xiao Yan.

After a while, Xiao Yan came to the reception hall.

When the guards saw Xiao Yan coming, they saluted respectfully, "Young Master Xiao Yan."

Nodding lightly, Xiao Yan took a step and walked into the reception hall.

At this time, there were already quite a few people in the spacious hall. On the top seat, there were three old men and a middle-aged man, who were Xiao Zhan, the head of the Xiao family, and three elders.

After taking the Soul-Breaking Pill, the three elders and Xiao Zhan also successfully broke through to the Douling realm. Looking at their appearance, they all seemed to be more than ten years younger.

Seeing Xiao Yan coming, Xiao Zhan smiled and pointed to a place on his lower right, "Yan'er, you are here, come and sit here."

The other three elders also forced a smile at Xiao Yan. Now that Xiao Yan's talent has been restored and he has been cultivated by Xiao Ling, he is the best among the younger generation of the Xiao family besides Xiao Ling. Those who looked down on Xiao Yan in the past no longer dare to show him a bad face.

He bowed to Xiao Zhan first, "Father." Xiao Yan nodded to the elders and sat on the chair prepared for him.

Although Xiao Yan had already let go of the past, he still couldn't put on a good face to those who had mocked him before.

The reason why he and Yaoyue made some friends outside was mainly because Xiao Yan didn't have many friends of the same age in the Xiao family. The clansmen who were about the same age as Xiao Yan had all laughed at Xiao Yan's inability to practice.

After sitting on the chair, the maid next to him quickly poured a cup of tea for Xiao Yan.

After taking a sip of the tea, Xiao Yan took out "One Hundred Little Secrets of Alchemists" and read it carefully.

The children of the Xiao family around him saw this scene and cast envious eyes. In the current Xiao family, everyone knew that it was Xiao Ling who cured Xiao Yan and valued him very much. Now Xiao Yan has not only reached the three-star fighter, but also become a first-grade alchemist. Especially a pink-haired girl, her face was full of regret.

"If I hadn't alienated Xiao Yan at the beginning, maybe I could break through the fighter now." Xiao Mei looked at Xiao Yan with complicated eyes, with mixed feelings in her heart.

Xiao Mei liked Xiao Yan before he could no longer practice and was Xiao Yan's best friend. After Xiao Yan became a waste, she distanced herself from Xiao Yan. After Xiao Yan regained his reputation as a genius, she wanted to restore his relationship with Xiao Yan, but because she had hurt Xiao Yan, she was ignored by Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan seemed to have noticed it, and glanced in the direction of his gaze. Seeing that it was Xiao Mei, he retracted his gaze and continued to read the book in his hand.

At this moment, a girl in a purple dress walked into the reception hall, rubbed her amethyst-like eyes, and Zi Yan yawned, "Hurry up, I'm going to sleep soon."

After that, she sat on the chair to the right of Xiao Zhan.

Xiao Zhan scratched his head a little embarrassedly, because the visiting card said that Yun Yun, the leader of Yunlan Sect, would also come this time. Xiao Ling was practicing now, so he had to ask Zi Yan to come to calm the situation.

Zi Yan originally didn't plan to come, but heard that it was related to the disciple Xiao Ling selected for Elder Huo, and Xiao Zhan invited her three times, so Zi Yan agreed.

After a while, the guards at the door came to report, "Clan leader, elders, the people from Yunlan Sect have arrived."

Hearing the guards' report, Xiao Zhan smiled and pointed at several family elders, "You guys go and greet them. Sect Master Yun will come in person today, so don't be impolite."

Several elders nodded, stood up, and walked out of the hall.

Zi Yan, who had squinted her eyes, felt a Douhuang aura gradually walking towards the hall. She patted her face and forced herself to be more alert.

Although Zi Yan didn't care about these things at all, she couldn't let others look down on Xiao Ling's family.

Not long after the elders left, they led several middle-aged men in moon-white robes into the reception hall.

Behind them, there followed a woman in a tight-fitting golden and purple brocade robe, with a noble temperament, like a shining pearl. And behind her, there was a cold, beautiful and charming girl in a moon-white robe, like a blooming snow lotus.

The several old men in front who were talking eagerly seemed to intentionally avoid the two behind. However, it was precisely because of the presence of the old man in the moon-white robe that the atmosphere between the Xiao family and the Yunlan Sect’s guests was not too awkward.

Seeing the guests from the Yunlan Sect enter the hall, Xiao Zhan stood up from his seat and bowed to the elegant woman, "I guess this is the Yun Sect Master, I have heard of your great name for a long time, please take a seat."

"You are too polite, Chief Xiao, Yun Yun came uninvited, please forgive me." Yun Yun's face was calm, and she nodded slightly in response.

After looking around, he didn't see Xiao Ling, and he breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems that the intelligence is correct, Xiao Ling is now in seclusion."

He then looked at Zi Yan beside Xiao Zhan, "This must be Miss Zi Yan, she can cultivate to the peak of Dou Wang at such a young age, she is worthy of being a genius of Canaan Academy."
