People are fighting, but all members are NPCs

Chapter 169: The door is blocked by wild dogs

Xiao Yuan's words naturally reached the ears of passers-by.

Many people turned around curiously, wanting to see who could say such brazenly.

However, when they saw the two peerless beauties, one in red and one in white, beside Xiao Yuan, and the nonchalant smile on Xiao Yuan's face, they immediately gave up their original plan and quickly kept silent.

To be able to have two such stunningly beautiful women in the imperial capital, even if they are not from the three major families, they must be from prominent backgrounds and are definitely not people they can afford to provoke.

So everyone obediently made way for them to pass.

When they arrived at the gate of Nalan Mansion, they saw an old man who looked like a housekeeper surrounded by a group of first- and second-grade alchemists, and a pillar next to him was also surrounded by people.

Just because there was a delicate beauty standing next to the pillar - Nalan Yanran.

"Miss Nalan, I will soon be taking the assessment for a third-grade alchemist. Let me give it a try, just in case I can do it?"

"Miss Nalan, my master is a fourth-grade alchemist, maybe I can do it too."

"Miss Nalan..."

"Everyone, please go back. If you want to treat my grandfather, please go to the housekeeper. I'm sorry that Nalan Yanran cannot receive you."

"No, Miss Nalan, listen to me, I really can..."

"Me too!"

"Yes, don't look at me as a first-grade cultivator, but I have studied with my teacher for many years. Let me try, what if I can do it?"

Those alchemists still refused to give up, and some even began to fantasize about climbing up the Nalan Mansion's ladder, curing Nalan Jie's chronic illness, gaining the favor of Nalan Yanran, the jewel in the crown of the Nalan family, and then marrying the young master of the Yunlan Sect and reaching the pinnacle of their lives.

Little did they know that these chattering sounds had already given Nalan Yanran a headache.

She originally came out of the mansion to greet Xiao Yuan, but ended up being harassed by this group of people.

It was clearly stated that only alchemists of the third rank and above could enter the mansion, but this group of people...

What do you mean by "going to be a third-grade alchemist"? Isn't he still a second-grade one now?

There’s also the saying “Teacher is a fourth-grade alchemist”, but you’re only a first-grade one now.

If possible, Nalan Yanran really wanted to curse loudly.

But thinking that these people were all from the Alchemist Guild, even though he felt annoyed, he still had to give them some face for the sake of President Fa Ma. He couldn't fall out with them, and he couldn't offend them easily.

"Oh, it seems that Miss Nalan really needs help." A slightly teasing yet familiar voice suddenly sounded.

"Yeah...if possible, I really hope someone can come and help me now...No!"

Nalan Yanran had just said half of her words when she suddenly reacted, raised her eyes abruptly and looked towards the back of the crowd.

"Mr. Xiao Yuan, you are finally here!"

The moment she saw Xiao Yuan, her eyes suddenly lit up, as if she had found her backbone, and her heart fell back into her stomach.

"Xiao Yuan? Who is that? Why did he make Miss Nalan so surprised?"

The alchemists looked at each other in confusion, but before they could get an answer, they felt their bodies begin to retreat uncontrollably to both sides, as if an invisible hand was forcibly pushing them apart.

Then, they saw a beautiful woman in red holding an oil-paper umbrella leading the way, followed by a young man in white, a young woman in white, and...

A child?
The child looked a little dirty, and his slightly chubby face was covered with sugar crumbs - obviously from the snacks he had just eaten.

"Sister Nalan, we are here!!!"

The moment the road was cleared, Xiaojiu was the first to rush forward and threw himself on Nalan Yanran's legs.

Surprisingly, the usually aloof Miss Nalan did not show any disgust at all, and even squatted down and picked her up, even though her clothes were stained with a lot of stains.

"Sister Nalan, do you miss Xiaojiu?"

Xiaojiu nuzzled Nalan Yanran's cheek affectionately, and Nalan Yanran responded softly, "Of course I do. Sister Nalan has been waiting for you to come."

"It's been a long time since we last met. I wonder if Miss Nalan still remembers me?" "Little Medical Fairy?!"

Nalan Yanran couldn't help but show joy when she saw Xiao Yixian coming, and hurriedly went to greet her, "It's really you! It's been over a year since we parted at the Warcraft Mountains. I didn't expect you to..."

As she spoke, Nalan Yanran's voice suddenly paused, and she immediately looked at Xiao Yuan behind Xiao Yixian.

Well, it goes without saying that Xiao Yixiang must have been killed by that guy.

For a moment, Nalan Yanran's expression became complicated, and she didn't know what expression to show.

The Little Medical Fairy naturally saw this and smiled, saying, "It's indeed been over a year since we last met, but I'm sorry. I hope my intrusive visit didn't disturb you."

"No, please don't say that."

Nalan Yanran smiled bitterly and shook her head, saying apologetically, "I should be the one to apologize. I should have gone out of the city to greet you, but, as you can see, I ran into trouble as soon as I left the mansion."

She looked around in embarrassment, the meaning was obvious: these alchemists were trouble!
Moreover, many people had already heard it and immediately showed displeasure on their faces.

"Ms. Nalan, what are you saying? We are kind enough to help treat the old man of your Nalan family. How did this become a problem?"

"That's right, you guys are just looking down on us. Even though we're not high-ranking now, it doesn't mean we can't heal illnesses, and it certainly doesn't mean we won't be able to in the future!"

"Yes, yes, your Nalan family may be big, but our Alchemist Guild is not to be bullied!"

It's like the herd effect. When a leader appears, a group of sheep will follow. Suddenly, the public opinion changes and everyone starts to denounce the Nalan Mansion.

Even the voices of condemnation were growing louder and louder, spreading among the crowd like a plague, and had already infected many alchemists who were rejected by the steward of the Nalan Mansion and were dissatisfied.

Everyone stood on the united front.

"It seems like there are indeed a lot of troubles."

Just then, a voice that didn't fit in suddenly interrupted their conversation.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Xiao Yuan, who had been silent the whole time, say quietly, "Miss Nalan, I'm going to pick a fight with you. You invited me here, and it's fine if you didn't sprinkle water and dust to welcome me with a grand banquet, but why did you let a pack of stray dogs block my door?"

“I’m sorry, this is indeed my fault.”

Nalan Yanran lowered her head in shame, like a little girl who had done something wrong.

"You stinky boy, who are you calling a stray dog?"

"Whose wild boy is this? How dare he come here and act so recklessly!"

"You bastard, you..."

After being scolded like this, the alchemists became excited again.

After all, they are also well-known and arrogant people in this holy city. How can they be willing to be insulted like this!

Some of them even had a bad temper and wanted to teach the other party a lesson right away.

Don't underestimate them because they are a weak profession like alchemists. In fact, in order to be able to control fire perfectly, their own strength is naturally not bad.

only--

Pfft!
An alchemist who was about to take action suddenly fell to the ground after taking less than two steps.

Immediately afterwards, the other alchemists blocking the door fell to the ground one after another like dumplings, unable to get up again.

Meng Po slowly lowered her body and said respectfully, "Master, I have finished cleaning up the garbage. You can go in now."

"Well, Miss Nalan, you've seen it too, so what are you waiting for? Do you want me to help your old man treat his illness here? Or is waiting outside the door the Nalan family's way of entertaining guests?"

After being reminded by the two, Nalan Yanran immediately came to her senses and quickly turned around to greet them:

"Everyone, please come in."
