Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 287 Let’s chat for a while

Countless times, countless times, Xun'er had imagined the scene after the two met in her dreams.

Whether it was Brother Xiao Yan who took the initiative to come up and hug her, or he gritted his teeth, abandoned his former reserved ladylike image, and threw himself directly into the other's arms, in Xun'er's eyes, it was a first-class wonderful reunion.

After all, she didn't care about other people's opinions at all. She was polite and elegant, but in fact, she didn't have any emotion in her heart. As long as Xiao Yan liked her, she wouldn't frown even if she gave up everything.
But what was happening now made her almost unable to believe whether she was in reality or a nightmare.

Brother Xiao Yan didn’t hug me!
Brother Xiao Yan didn’t take the initiative to hug me!

Not only did he not hug me, he wouldn't even let me into his arms!

this.
For a moment, Xun'er's face was dull, as if something had broken in her heart, crackling and turning into slag.

"Hey, Nizi, come back to your senses!"

Xiao Yan's waving hand appeared in front of her eyes, and sounds gradually appeared in Xun'er's ears. She slowly came back to her senses from the previous silence and became aware of the noise around her again.

Ah, so noisy
Why didn't I notice these people were so noisy before?
"Nizi!"

Xiao Yan shouted softly, which contained a trace of fluctuations in his soul power, and finally made Xun'er suddenly wake up, and her expression quickly returned to normal.

"Xiao, Brother Xiao Yan!"

Looking at the panicked little girl in front of him, Xiao Yan sighed helplessly and helped her straighten her messy hair.
"Are you embarrassed now?"

"I"

Xun'er had so much pain that she couldn't express it in words. She even forgot how reserved and cute she usually was.

"Haha, silly girl, I haven't seen you for two years. You've grown into a big girl now. I didn't even dare to recognize you before."

Xiao Yan smiled casually and sighed with some regret:

"But, I've told you countless times since the beginning, girl, to be mindful of your appearance when you go out. Look, this place is not like Wutan City. There are so many people staring at you. Back then, when you followed me with a runny nose."

"No, I don't have a runny nose!"

Xun'er blushed and interrupted Xiao Yan repeatedly, her fists clenched tightly.

"But you did..."

"Brother Xiao Yan remembered it wrongly!"

"Yes, yes, I was wrong. No, absolutely not."

Seeing the steam rising from Xun'er's head, Xiao Yan felt extremely overwhelmed and quickly raised his hands in surrender.

After being with Ruoruo for such a long time, he at least understood a little about girls' minds. Naturally, he would not let other people hear the embarrassing stories of this girl who had been following him around since she was a child.

"Humph"

Xun'er was amused by Xiao Yan's antics and wanted to say something, but she realized belatedly that he was in poor physical condition. A hint of doubt flashed across her eyes, and then she became a little colder.
"Brother Xiao Yan, are you injured?"

"Ok?"

Xiao Yan was startled, as if he had not expected that the other party could actually detect the abnormality in his body. He immediately looked at her in surprise and whispered:
"Sure, Nizi. I was just thinking about how to explain it to you, but I didn't expect you to see it first."

Due to his severe injuries, Xiao Yan's Dou Qi had long been suppressed by Hun Ruoruo into his chest and dantian. In addition, his Dou Crystal had long exploded into nothingness. To outsiders, he was basically just an ordinary person with insufficient Qi and blood.

Xiao Yan was genuinely surprised by Xun'er's ability to see through the mystery at a glance. "Don't worry, Brother Xiao Yan, Xun'er had no intention of prying into your privacy. It was just that some of my body's abilities were subconsciously triggered."

The golden light in her eyes flashed away, Xun'er took a deep breath, and her eyes became deep and dark.
"However, this kind of scar is definitely caused by Brother Xiao Yan using some kind of secret technique, right?"

".I guess so. The situation was urgent at the time and there was no time for overthinking."

"I knew it would be such a costly secret technique. Doesn't that girl Ruoruo know how much damage it will cause you?"

Xun'er's face wrinkled into a ball, and she said in great dissatisfaction, "This will affect your future. Brother Xiao Yan is just a Nalan Yanran, how can you use such a secret technique!"

Seeing Xun'er getting more and more excited, her voice almost echoing throughout the audience, Xiao Yan quickly made a silencing gesture to her, and then smiled helplessly:

"Where does your imagination come from? Nalan Yanran is certainly not worthy of me using this secret technique. This is a long story. I will tell you in detail after the competition is over."

"Besides, this matter has nothing to do with Ruoruo. It's more like I was the one who rejected her kindness first, and then shamelessly borrowed her secret technique. Although your sister Ruoruo is away for the time being, it's not a good habit to say bad things about others behind their backs."

As if recalling the delicate relationship between the two in Wutan City, Xiao Yan felt a smile in his heart and could not help but jokingly said:
"Aren't you two very close? Let me make it clear first, your sister Ruoruo has never said anything bad about you in front of me in the past two years."

"I--"

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xun'er swallowed the questioning words that were on the tip of her tongue. She didn't want to be defeated by that woman, and she didn't want to be called petty by her brother Xiao Yan!
Looking at Xiao Yan's warm smile and his leisurely pace, Xun'er's worries finally subsided a lot.

Brother Xiao Yan has really matured a lot.
No wonder he wouldn't let me hug him. With so many people looking at him, he must have been concerned about my image.
Thinking of this, a smile bloomed on Xun'er's cheeks again, and there was a hint of competitive spirit that had never appeared before. She no longer felt bored and tedious.

Yes, how can I let Brother Xiao Yan think that I am a petty woman?
Whatever An Ruoruo can do, I, Gu Xun'er, can do as well!
Wait, then.
Once we get to the inner courtyard, everything will be fine.

After witnessing the coquettishness and shyness displayed by their goddess in front of Xiao Yan, everyone in Canaan Academy looked at the thin figure and remained surprisingly silent. The entire scene fell into dead silence.

"This girl is really capable of causing trouble for me."

Glancing at the scene around him, Xiao Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head, then took a step and slowly walked up the stairs.

Under the gazes of countless people, the gentle footsteps seemed to be stepping on everyone's hearts, making them beat rapidly.

Xiao Yan walked onto the stage slowly, panting slightly. He looked at the serious-looking young man not far away and said calmly:

"Yellow Rank Class Two, Xiao Yan."

"Xuanjie Class 3, Xue Beng!"

Xue Beng thrust the spear straight into the ground, his face stern, and he clasped his fists and said,
"I've heard of your great name for a long time, but meeting you today really surprises me."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan suddenly felt helpless. His body, which looked extremely weak due to the serious injury, was truly a confusing smoke. No matter where he went, he would become the target of others' attempts to belittle and trample on him.

Does he really look that weak?
The other party's words were quite polite, so Xiao Yan naturally didn't take it too seriously. He just nodded and said:
"I'm sorry, I was chatting with that little girl earlier and wasted some time. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

"No!"

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xue Beng's stern face suddenly showed a subtle sense of uneasiness. He rubbed his hands and said:

"Actually, I wouldn't mind if you guys chatted a little longer."

As if he felt his words were not convincing enough, he looked serious and added seriously,
"real!"

".ah?"

This time, it was Xiao Yan's turn to be stunned.
