Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 364 What color will black hair and blue hair turn out to be?
They chatted and hurried on their way. Not long after, Xiao Yan and Zi Yan, one big and one small, appeared at the door of the Demon Palace.

Zi Yan's appearance as a child of about twelve or thirteen years old unsurprisingly attracted the attention of most people nearby.

You should know that in Canaan College, only those who are over fifteen years old are eligible to apply for the outer courtyard, and if you want to enter the inner courtyard, you need to undergo at least two years of outer courtyard training.

It is easy to imagine how incongruous it was for a little girl of twelve or thirteen to appear in the inner courtyard.

As soon as they entered the hall, before Xiao Yan took the initiative to introduce them, Zi Yan cheered and rushed to the stall where various elixirs were piled up for sale, holding them one by one in her hands and examining them.

Seeing that it was Xiao Yan who brought people here, and the little girl was so cute, the many students on the scene did not behave too unnaturally. Instead, they carried out their work in an orderly manner.

Not long after, the student responsible for reporting the news re-entered the hall from the corner and invited Hu Jia and others, who were the leaders of the forces, to come over.

"This is... a little girl?"

Seeing Xiao Yan's long-lost face, Hu Jia didn't have time to complain before her attention was attracted by Zi Yan who was holding a jade bottle and smiling foolishly.

"Haha, don't underestimate her age. Her combat prowess is far beyond your imagination."

Knowing Zi Yan's deceptive appearance, Xiao Yan immediately explained with a smile.

"Sure, Boss. You've been gone for so long, and you've brought us such a big surprise as soon as you came back."

Hu Jia blinked mischievously, "Black-haired and blue-haired people can actually give birth to a purple-haired girl. This is really something I've learned."

"Pfft!"

Hearing Hu Jia's sarcastic words, Xiao Yan was so breathless that he almost spit out saliva.

"You, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Looking at the girl with a teasing smile, Xiao Yan said speechlessly:

"I've only been gone for less than two months. Where did you get such a big baby girl? Can you please have some common sense?"

"Oh, so you know you've been gone for two months."

Hu Jia squeezed her throat and said seriously, "If someone didn't know, they would think that you, the third on the Strongest List, have gotten used to being a hands-off boss and have no plans to come back."

Even though they were half a foot away, the strong complaint in Hu Jia's words still made Xiao Yan's body stiffen, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head.

As the granddaughter of the vice-president, Hu Jia's status is extremely noble. It can even be said that she is more transcendent than most of the students in the inner courtyard.

However, ever since Xun'er became absorbed in cultivation and he was too busy worrying about Ruoruo's affairs to spare any time, all operations of the Demon Palace were handed over to this inexperienced girl.

Because of this, the other party has made an indispensable contribution to the development of the Demon Palace to its current state.

"I refined a lot of pills from Elder Huo a while ago. I heard that you have recently started practicing in the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower. I believe it will be helpful to you."

As he spoke, Xiao Yan casually took a crystal card, swiped 300 Sky Fire Energy onto it, and handed it to Hu Jia.

"I've become the third strongest person on the list. I get a large amount of fire energy every month, so I don't have to worry about fire energy anymore."

As early as when he became the young patriarch of the Xiao family, Xiao Yan had already been extremely careful about his reputation and power. Now that the Demon Palace has gradually become a force that can help him in the future, he will naturally not be stingy with the resources at hand.

After all, if he wanted to help Ruoruo in the future, it would definitely be a bit too little for him to do it alone.

The Demon Palace was currently developing rapidly, and the Xiao family was also thriving in the imperial capital. Xiao Yan was certain that even if Ruoruo really came from the Sound Valley, which was considered the most powerful in Zhongzhou, he would eventually have the capital to compete with it! "Humph, that's more like it."

Without much politeness, Hu Jia took the resources handed over by Xiao Yan and sighed:
"As expected of a demon, he's so generous. It's worth all the effort I put into this demon palace."

With just a cursory glance, Hu Jia could easily tell that the elixirs Xiao Yan gave were definitely above the third grade, and there were even two fourth-grade elixirs!
This kind of treatment is definitely much more generous than what Hu Jia could get by working hard in the inner courtyard.

If you follow this guy, apart from anything else, at least you won't suffer any loss.
After sighing in his heart, Hu Jia seemed to recall something and suddenly reminded:
"Oh, by the way, Boss, Sister Xiao Yu was originally here to help me manage the Demon Palace, but since yesterday, she has been called to the outer courtyard. I heard that someone from your Xiao family has come."

"Someone from the Xiao family is coming?"

The smile on his lips suddenly disappeared, Xiao Yan frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

Hu Jia shook her head. "She didn't tell me the details of the matter, but before she left, she asked me to bring you a message, saying that she wanted you to come over as soon as you were free."

As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Yan suddenly felt a little suspicious.

You know, long before setting off, Ruoruo had already anticipated the unrest that would occur in the Gama Empire and had already integrated all the forces in the imperial capital.

With such unprecedented power concentration, neither the royal family nor the Xiao family should be threatened in any way.

Since it's not a threat.
Are there other urgent issues that need to be resolved in the Gama Empire?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan's expression changed, and he nodded immediately, saying, "I understand. Thank you for letting me know."

"You want to go to the outer courtyard?"

After hesitating for a moment, Hu Jia suddenly said, "Looking at Sister Xiao Yu's appearance, there shouldn't be any major problems. There's no need to worry too much."

"Well, don't worry, I know what's going on."

Xiao Yan smiled cheerfully, then pointed at the little girl who was running and jumping in the distance, and said:

"Although she shouldn't have to spend the night in the outer courtyard, I'm afraid I can't take this little one with me. I'll have to let her stay here for a while. Is that okay?"

"Don't worry, it's just a little girl. The Demon Palace has been operating for so long, how could they not take good care of her?"

Looking at the little girl's adorable fair and tender face, Hu Jia quickly agreed. The other party's cute appearance made her want to rush up and pinch her hard.

"In that case, I am relieved."

Seeing Hu Jia agreed so readily, Xiao Yan couldn't help but reveal a strange look on his face. He didn't stop and ran out quickly.

"Hey, little sister, come quickly, your brother Xiao has left, so you have to stay with your sister for the time being~"

"Oh--"

He waved in Zi Yan's direction, and after seeing her running and jumping towards him, Hu Jia was immediately overjoyed, and the fatigue from work was also relieved a lot.

However, before Hu Jia could rejoice for a moment, Xiao Yan's head suddenly popped out from the entrance of the hall again and added:
"I almost forgot to mention, her name is Zi Yan, the Inner Court Brute Force King you told me about before. I originally thought you knew each other."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yan's figure disappeared without a trace, leaving Hu Jia staring at the smug little guy with wide eyes.
"Wha, what?!"
