Chapter 103: Yao Chen Appears, Yao Ye Arrives at the Door

"A fifth-tier pill?" Xiao Ming's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the pills on display.

Each of them was of a reddish color, and the fragrance of the pills was intense and pleasant, indicating that the pills were of good quality and not some inferior pills with faulty medicinal properties.

Rather, they were genuine fifth-tier pills.

The fourth-tier pills will not be discussed for the time being, nor will the Qi Method.

The number of alchemists who could refine this fifth-tier pill in the Jia Ma Empire could be counted on the fingers of one's hands.

Each of those pills could be auctioned at a sky-high price.

To him, a pill of this tier was not too valuable, except for the fact that the medicinal herbs were hard to find.

But to make it up to Xiao Zhan and his son, it seemed sincere enough.

Moreover, Yun Yun, the Leader of the Misty Cloud Sect, had personally come to the door to apologize, so for Xiao Zhan, he could maintain his reputation and dignity.

After all, they had already done their best, and other than it being a bit inappropriate to talk about such things in public, there was nothing for others to complain about.

As expected, after the Grand Elder and the others saw the compensation, they looked at Xiao Zhan with less derision.

Earlier they had mocked because they did not expect the compensation gifts given by the Misty Cloud Sect to be so generous, acting as if they took the matter very seriously.

If Yun Yun had merely talked about annulling the marriage and then given something unimportant to Xiao Zhan, then, indeed, they might have mocked it out loud.

But now, with the things Yun Yun had given and the attitude she presented, they were instantly left with no reason to mock.

After all, the Dou Qi Continent was still about strength.

"Clan Head Xiao, all these things are compensations for you, father and son, please consider the matter of Yanran."

After Yun Yun said this sentence, she closed her mouth.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall was somewhat tense, but no one else spoke because they were not the parties involved, only the faces of Xiao Zhan and his son were very gloomy.

Although Yun Yun's reason was understandable and the compensation generous, for the father and son, annulling the marriage arrangement was still a very uncomfortable matter.

In a hoarse voice, Xiao Zhan was about to speak when someone else spoke before him.

"Sect Leader Yun Yun, you'd better retrieve the pills, we may not agree on the matter today!"

The hall fell silent and all eyes turned to Xiao Yan, who had raised his face in a corner.

After such a long time, Xiao Yan had already completely learned about the situation.

"Xiao Yan, when did it become your place to talk here, shut your mouth!" The face of one of the Elders sank and then shouted angrily.

"Xiao Yan, back off, I know it's not a pleasant thing for you, but we will make the decision here!" Another Elder also spoke with some anxiety.

The two of them had stopped Xiao Yan for the simple reason that they feared that Xiao Yan would not be careful with his words and would offend Yun Yun and bring trouble to the Xiao Clan.

"Elders, this is a marriage matter of me, Xiao Yan, so please don't get involved!"

Xiao Yan had had enough of the teasing from the three Elders in the past few days, and with the increasingly nasty taunts among the clan members and the encouragement of the marriage annulment, the combination of all of them erupted today, and the harshness of his words was evident.

"You..." The three Elders were stunned at these words, and the sulky Third Elder's eyes stared at him as he slowly formed his Dou Qi.

"It's alright, Third Elder, this is Xiao Yan's own matter, let him settle it himself." Xiao Ming, who was sitting on top, looked at Third Elder and said slowly.

The other members of the Xiao family were not involved in such a matter, and none of them could say anything about it, nor could they make the decisions for Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yan.

Now that the Third Elder wanted to stop Xiao Yan, Xiao Zhan, who was in a bad mood by his side, would definitely not stand idly by, in order for the Xiao family not to be involved in a fight over this matter later, it was necessary to stop them, otherwise, it would be very embarrassing.

So Xiao Ming stopped the Third Elder from acting.

At the same time as he stopped the Third Elder, Xiao Ming also looked at Xiao Yan's ring with an inexplicable look.

Hearing Xiao Ming's words, the Third Elder suddenly calmed down and after looking at Xiao Ming, he immediately sat down helplessly.

At the same time, he prayed in his heart that Xiao Yan would know the importance of this matter.

Without Third Elder's obstruction, Xiao Yan first bowed respectfully to Xiao Zhan, then turned to look at Yun Yun, took a deep breath, and calmly asked.

"Sect Leader Yun Yun, I would like to ask, regarding the annulment of the marriage arrangement, has Elder Nalan agreed?"

"Yanran is the heiress of my Misty Cloud Sect, I will convey this matter to the Old Leader of the Nalan family."

Yun Yun looked at the teenager in front of her, her originally calm face eventually shadowed, but she still spoke with a calm tone.

"In that case, doesn't that mean he didn't agree? Since Elder Nalan did not agree, then I hope that Sect Leader Yun Yun will be comprehensive to us, my father will not agree to this request of yours, since the marriage arrangement in the first place was personally opened by the two Elders, and now that they have not said anything to annul it, then no one will dare to annul this marriage, and no one in our clan would do such a thing that would desecrate a dead elder."

Saying this, Xiao Yan's eyes also looked at the three elders, clearly implying something.

The three elders and Xiao Yan's grandfather were obviously from the same generation, but Xiao Yan was treating them as Xiao Lin's juniors.

Xiao Yan's excuse was quite good, he did not blame Yun Yun or the Nalan Family, he was just saying that people from his own Family did not dare to desecrate the dead elder.

Yun Yun also could not say anything, but Nalan Yanran beside her... she could not sit still.

She stood up angrily and said, "The matter of the marriage arrangement is my business, it has nothing to do with Grandfather or yours, say that you are going to annul the marriage now!"

"I said I'm not going to annul this marriage today!" Xiao Yan, for some reason, stubbornly replied.

"You...! " Nalan Yanran was about to say something else, but Yun Yun beside her frowned and wanted to stop Nalan Yanran's words.

However, how could Nalan Yanran who was already furious with Xiao Yan put up with so much? So she said very unconvinced, "Master, he just thinks the compensation is too small, I..."

...

In the end, after a not very friendly conversation, Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran made a three-year agreement.

This time, the three-year agreement was not proposed by Nalan Yanran, but by Xiao Yan.

When Xiao Yan proposed the three-year agreement, the Xiao family was confused.

Xiao Ming was also confused, as he did not expect that Xiao Yan would make such an agreement.

How did Xiao Yan dare to make this three-year reverse agreement?

The reason Xiao Yan dared to make such a three-year agreement was not because he had lost his mind.

There was a reason for it.

After the people of the Misty Cloud Sect left the Xiao Family, Xiao Yan went to the back mountain alone.

After looking around and seeing that no one was there, he spoke cautiously.

"Senior? Senior?!"

"Hehehe, little guy, don't look for me, I'm on your finger."

A strange old familiar laughter suddenly entered Xiao Yan's ears.

Hearing these words, the pupils of Xiao Yan's eyes shrank, and then he cast his own gaze towards the black antique ring resting on the top of his right hand.

"Are you really there?" Xiao Yan forcibly held back the panic running through his heart and tried to calm his voice.

Today, one of the reasons why Xiao Yan had dared to confront Yun Yun was because he had had quite a bit of anger built up over the past few days from the increasingly nasty taunts from the clan members, and this anger had exploded with today's marriage annulment, but the other reason was that he had heard a voice in his mind at that moment.

The first time he heard that voice in his mind, Xiao Yan thought it was an illusion, but after a few seconds, Xiao Yan realized that it was not an illusion.

At that moment, he knew that he was lucky to have met an immortal master like the novels in his previous life.

After all, there were several powerful people present at that moment, including Xiao Ming, Zi Yan and Yun Yun, but they all seemed to have no reaction to the voice in his mind as if they did not notice.

As the immortal master conveyed a message to him, he also told him that he would accept him as his disciple.

Immediately, he gave him a lot of confidence.

Along with the discussion with Nalan Yanran, the arrogance shown in the other party's words really gave him a lot of courage, so he had set up a three-year agreement.

He wanted everyone to understand that he, Xiao Yan, was not a waste.

However, that was what he thought before. At this moment, Xiao Yan only felt that he had encountered a ghost.

This was because, according to his perception, there was no immortal master living in a ring.

Although there was some fear in his heart, Xiao Yan still struggled to slow down his heartbeat.

"Senior please don't joke, my little heart can't afford such scares..."

"I'm not joking with you, but your composure isn't bad, I'm surprised that you're not so scared that you jumped out of fright." A playful laugh came from the ring.

At the same time, an old, transparent figure floated out of the ring.

"Senior, so you're really in the ring?"

Looking at this shadow, which looked exactly like the ghosts of his previous life, Xiao Yan revealed a smile that was worse than crying.

"Little guy, don't smile so ugly, don't you want me to take you as a disciple?"

Hearing these words, Xiao Yan's spirit shuddered.

Immediately, he remembered that figure had just said that he could get his talent back, and he was no longer so afraid, so he hurriedly asked, "Senior, didn't you say that you would take me as your disciple and could help me get my talent back? Let's start now."

"I told you that you would regain your talent, in fact, you have already regained it."

"This..." Xiao Yan was somewhat puzzled.

"Actually, I am the one who made your Dou Qi disappear during these two years... " The transparent elder, smiling, stared at the bewildered Xiao Yan and spoke.

"What? "Xiao Yan was stunned when he heard those words.

Immediately after, his face immediately changed to a gloomy color, and the cold words came out from between his teeth with difficulty:

"Are you saying that the Dou Qi that has inexplicably disappeared from my body is your doing?"

"Hehehe, I had to do it, so don't blame me, little guy."

"GO FUCK YOUR MOTHER!"

Xiao Yan, who had been standing in the same place, suddenly jumped up like a madman, his face covered with fierceness, and his fist shot towards Yao Lao's face with full force.

Yao Lao's illusory body slowly swerved to the left, easily dodging Xiao Yan's attack.

"Hehehe, little guy, no need to be so furious, isn't it just absorbing your Dou Qi for two years? Besides, I didn't do it intentionally...". Yao Lao began to explain.

This was pure bullshit, Yao Lao didn't really need Dou Qi, but Xiao Yan didn't know that at this moment.

The corners of Xiao Yan's mouth twitched and his voice was filled with suppressed anger.

"Old man, since you are hiding in the ring, you must also know how I have been living for the past two years or so because you have absorbed my Dou Qi, right? I have been mocked and scorned every day for the past two years."

"But in these two years of mockery, you have grown up, haven't you? Do you think if it was two years ago, you would have the calmness and the same mentality as now?" smiling, Yao Lao said softly.

Xiao Yan: "You..."

After some friendly discussion, Xiao Yan finally calmed down.

Looking at Yao Lao in front of him, he said without good humor, "Didn't you say that you could let me catch up with Nalan Yanran in three years, how should I do it?"

"I am able to let you catch up with that girl, but..." Yao Lao did not continue.

Xiao Yan seemed a little anxious, this old man had just acted mysteriously and talked so confidently, he really knew how to do it, didn't he? Otherwise, wouldn't he have to lose face three years later?

"Do you want to become an Alchemist?" Yao Lao suddenly asked.

"An Alchemist?" Xiao Yan was stunned at this leap in conversation, then frowned broadly.

"In the Dou Qi Continent, no matter who it is, everyone wants to become an alchemist, but is an alchemist something you can be just by wanting to be one? The harsh conditions to be one are too difficult to meet, don't ask me about being an Alchemist, that three-year agreement..."

The words suddenly stopped, Xiao Yan looked up and opened his mouth wide, "Can I be one?"

"Yes." He greatly appreciated Xiao Yan's look of surprise mixed with expectation and ecstasy. Yao Lao stroked his illusory beard pretentiously, "You're barely qualified though."

Later, after learning that he could become an alchemist and the other party was also an alchemist.

More importantly, after the other party could also help him complete the three-year agreement he had set, Xiao Yan immediately bowed his head.

Without further mentioning Xiao Yan's affairs.

...

On Xiao Ming's side, he had just returned to his small courtyard with Zi Yan for a short time before being invited back to the welcome hall by the Grand Elder.

"Eh?" Looking at the tall and cold girl in the hall, Xiao Ming was a little surprised.

How come he hadn't heard that there would be more guests?

"Actually, she sent her notification yesterday, however, it was too late so we didn't bother you, and today we forgot to mention it to you because of the Misty Cloud Sect matter."

The Grand Elder beside him said with some discomfort.

Hearing this, Xiao Ming nodded his head a little speechless.

Seeing Xiao Ming's arrival, the cold and beautiful woman's eyes lit up and she stood up and smiled, "Eldest Princess of the Jia Ma Empire, Yao Ye, I have met Master Xiao Ming, please excuse me for taking the liberty to visit you today."

"It's alright, Princess Yao Ye, please have a seat..."

Because of what had happened with the Misty Cloud Sect, the only ones still seated in the hall to welcome Yao Ye at this time were Xiao Ming and the three Elders.

After ordering someone to pour a cup of good tea, they each took a sip of tea and when they had almost finished, Xiao Ming directly asked, "I wonder what is Princess Yao Ye's business in coming to the Xiao family this time?"

'My great-grandfather asked me to come to attract you and asked me to find a way to establish a marriage contract with you.' Of course, she couldn't say that.

She just smiled softly and said, "When the Great Grandfather heard that Master Xiao Ming had returned from the Jia Nan Academy and had become a sixth-tier Alchemist, he was glad that there was such a genius in the Jia Ma Empire and sent me especially to congratulate you, Master, on your return from your studies."
