Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 227 Money for Marrying a Wife

Although it was only half a month since Hun Ruoruo left, Xiao Yan had experienced several major changes. His originally frivolous and impetuous attitude, which had been caused by his understanding of her own feelings and the significant increase in his strength, finally calmed down.

First, he broke into the Mo family because Qinglin was kidnapped. Then, he hid his identity and secretly witnessed Nalan Yanran's hatred for the Mo family's cruel behavior. Finally, Yao Lao told him about the terrifying force called "Soul Palace".
It has to be said that this series of events that was enough to subvert Xiao Yan's cognition did indeed deeply stimulate his slightly complacent heart.

"Nalan Yanran. I didn't expect that with her stubborn personality, she would choose not to favor the Mo family. Haha, that's really interesting."

It was indeed an extremely unexpected thing for Xiao Yan to meet Nalan Yanran by chance. The other party's condemnation and hatred of the Mo family's cruel behavior also made Xiao Yan's image of Nalan Yanran slightly change.

Nearly three years passed so quickly that when Xiao Yan saw the other party again, he did not feel much hatred in his heart. Instead, he felt a sense of relief that the knot in his heart was about to be resolved.

Xiao Yan knew very well that people have two sides and are not black or white, but wrong is wrong. Seeing the good side of the other person does not mean that he has to forgive the other person's past arrogance and rudeness.

He can't.

She also had to pay a price.

With a self-deprecating smile, Xiao Yan slightly moved his arm, which was covered with bandages and blood scabs, and then clenched his fist tentatively.

"Three years' agreement, I hope you won't let me down too much."

Judging from the strength he had seen in the Mo family before, Xiao Yan probably wouldn't be able to use even three moves to deal with Nalan Yanran at this moment. This was even after he deliberately restrained his strength in order to avoid killing her.

It’s not that Xiao Yan is conceited. If the two of them really want to fight to the death, he is 100% sure that he can kill the other party with one blow!
"Boy, are you still thinking about what happened a few days ago?"

Just as Xiao Yan was lost in thought, a steady and old voice suddenly came from the sky.

Xiao Yan smiled faintly, without commenting. He looked up at the figure slowly descending from above and said softly, "It can't be helped. With so many things happening suddenly, it's inevitable that people will be concerned."

Hai Bodong took a look at the strong body wrapped in bandages and couldn't help but sigh helplessly.

"That Qinglin girl possessed a fourth-tier magical beast. No one would have thought that she would be abducted by the Mo family while participating in a mercenary mission. Don't blame yourself too much."

Xiao Yan shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Qing Lin's desire to be independent and strong was probably influenced by Ruoruo and me. If she hadn't wanted to shed her status as a maid, she wouldn't have been abducted by the Mo family and later intercepted by the Sky Snake Palace."

"My strength is still too weak after all."

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Hai Bodong's mouth twitched slightly, and he said with a strange look in his eyes:
"Kid, sometimes I don't know whether you're being modest or boastful. Based on the strength you displayed back then, if the two men from the Sky Snake Mansion hadn't repeatedly proven they would treat Qing Lin well, your Fire Lotus would have slaughtered them all, right?"

After the two of them had been together for half a month, Hai Bodong already knew that Xiao Yan was not some powerful young master from Zhongzhou, but was just a native of the Jia Ma Empire.

But even so, Hai Bodong's attitude towards Xiao Yan did not change at all. Instead, after witnessing the other party's terrifying strength, he became more wary and even frightened.

The Fire Lotus Fighting Skills that Xiao Yan displayed at that time were definitely the only ones Hai Bodong had ever seen in his life. Even Queen Medusa could not release such terrifying attack power.

Because of this, even though this kid only appeared to have the strength of a Grand Fighter, Hai Bodong did not dare to underestimate him at all.

"That kind of strength doesn't come from me after all. If I could, I wouldn't even want to use it. The cost is too much to bear."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan shrugged his shoulders, turned his gaze to the ancient storage ring that seemed to have lost its spirituality, and said slowly.

"No matter what means, as long as it can be used by you, no one will say anything." Hai Bodong responded lightly, without any surprise in his words, and it was obvious that he had already noticed this.

"Maybe." Xiao Yan nodded slightly, without arguing any more, and stood up with his legs propped up.
"The hidden danger has been basically resolved. We will leave Stone Desert City tomorrow. We can't delay any longer." "Leaving tomorrow? So soon?"

Hai Bodong was stunned, looked at the bandages wrapped tightly around Xiao Yan, and asked with a frown.

As if he had anticipated Hai Bodong's doubts, Xiao Yan chuckled and instantly exerted strength in his muscles, shattering all the bandages and blood scabs that had been attached to his body for a long time, revealing the smooth and white skin underneath.

"Oh my god. Your wound has healed in just a few days?!"

Hai Bodong stared at the scene in front of him in amazement. He couldn't help but shudder and cursed out loud.

"I have been practicing for decades, but this is the first time I have seen a body as abnormal as yours. Are you still human?"

At that time, Hai Bodong saw Xiao Yan resisting the aftermath of the fire lotus and thought that the other party had some protective armor as a backup. But who would have thought that this kid was so stubborn that he used his body to withstand the strong wind that was enough to blow a Dou Ling into pieces.

Just surviving by chance was already an incredible thing, but Xiao Yan not only did not lose any limbs, but he was full of life after recuperation for half a month. He was even more like a Warcraft than a Warcraft!

Freak!

Hai Bodong had a vague premonition that if he offended this kid, even the Tianshe Mansion, which was considered the overlord of the Northwest Continent, would be in trouble.
In order to ensure that the Qing Lin incident would not happen again, Xiao Yan became extremely cautious and gave all the powerful fighting skills and techniques collected in the ring to Xiao Ding and the others.

Not only that, he also kept all the third-grade and even fourth-grade elixirs that he had refined in recent days in order to improve his alchemist level, to help the Motie Mercenary Group quickly improve its strength in order to protect itself.

After doing all this, Xiao Yan finally felt relieved. He said goodbye to his two brothers and prepared to set off for the imperial capital with Hai Bodong.

"Are you really going to Yunlan Sect in a month?" Looking at Xiao Yan's finally relaxed smile, Hai Bodong suddenly asked in a low voice.

"Well, there, we must go!"

Xiao Yan took a deep breath, his voice slow and firm, without the slightest possibility of wavering.

"Such a powerful force is not easy to deal with. With your strength, you may be able to protect yourself, but those old immortals in the Yunlan Sect will never talk about fairness and justice. You must be prepared in advance."

Hai Bodong frowned and had no choice but to remind him helplessly.

"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Hai."

Looking at Hai Bodong's helpless expression, Xiao Yan felt a warm feeling in his heart. He half-jokingly said, "If they dare to touch my Xiao family, I will kill everyone in the Yunlan Sect even if it costs me my life."

After the previous lesson, Xiao Yan's vigilance has reached its peak, and he will definitely not have any illusions about the Yunlan Sect.

A reputable family? A highly respected person?
Bullshit on him.

If the original visit to cancel the engagement could be explained by the young sect leader's selfish desires, then the countless wronged souls hidden by the Mo family had completely shattered the Yunlan Sect's hypocritical and sanctimonious attitude.

"Let's go to the auction house in the imperial capital to buy some herbs to restore the soul, then we'll go back to the Xiao family. I haven't seen them for a long time, and I don't know how my father is doing."

Recalling the scene when Xiao Zhan secretly hid all his savings in his purse, Xiao Yan couldn't help but take out the exquisitely shaped crystal card from his pocket and wiped it gently.

This is the money my father left for me to marry a wife.
You have to spend it sparingly.
