Battle Through the Heavens: I confronted Xiao Yan, and he begged me to be his elder brother.

Chapter 14 Xiao Yan is moved, Xiao Xun'er visits Hun Cang!

Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river; never underestimate a young person's potential...

All eyes turned to Hun Cang.

Clearly, no one expected that this Dou Huang would say such a thing.

Xiao Yan, the person involved, was trembling.

My older brother actually thinks so highly of me!

You should know that in the past three years, ever since his fighting spirit disappeared, he has suffered mostly cold looks and ridicule from the family.

If Xiao Yan had been somewhat resistant to acknowledging Hun Cang as his elder brother at the auction house, in order to curry favor with him...

At that moment, he had completely accepted it.

Nalan Yanran was silent for two seconds, her gaze shifting between Xiao Yan and Hun Cang, before saying, "Alright, I'll wait for him at the Yunlan Sect three years from now!"

"It's a deal. Three years from now, I will definitely go to the Yunlan Sect and avenge today's humiliation!" Xiao Yan said firmly, suppressing the sob in his voice.

"Elder Ge, let's go!" Nalan Yanran ignored him and left with a cold expression.

Ge Ye bowed respectfully to Chao Hun Cang with trepidation, his feet moving as if treading on the wind, not wanting to stay in the Xiao family for even a moment longer.

"Wait a moment!"

Just as they reached the door, Hun Cang's voice suddenly rang out.

Ge Ye's heart skipped a beat. He turned around, at a loss, and saw a dark shadow flying towards him. He subconsciously raised his hand to grab it.

It's a box.

Hun Cang said indifferently, "My second brother doesn't need your things."

"Yes, yes." Ge Ye obediently put it away. After waiting for a while, seeing that Hun Cang had no other instructions, he grabbed the young man beside him and rushed out of the Xiao family as if fleeing.

Nalan Yanran had already boarded the carriage, and Ge Ye followed. The young man was still in charge of driving.

However, the young man's face no longer held the arrogance he had when he arrived; instead, it was pale and filled with fear.

"I never expected that Xiao Yan would have an elder brother who is a Dou Huang level..." Through the car window, Ge Ye looked at the Xiao family, which was slowly blurring in his vision, and sighed with mixed feelings.

……

"It's actually true..."

"Big Brother Dou Huang, Xiao Yan is about to take off!"

"I really don't understand what kind of luck Xiao Yan had. He's so lucky."

"Keep your voice down. From now on, you should call him Young Clan Chief."

Xiao Zhan drove the Xiao family members out of the hall, shattering their hopes of showing off in front of Hun Cang.

A group of people whispered among themselves as they looked back inside. When their gazes swept over Xiao Yan, their eyes were filled with intense jealousy and envy.

"If I hadn't changed my attitude towards Brother Xiao Yan, would I be able to end up like Sister Xun'er...?"

In the crowd, Xiao Mei watched as Xiao Yan introduced Xiao Xun'er to Hun Cang. Looking at the young Dou Huang, she affectionately patted Xiao Xun'er's head.

She felt incredibly down, and even her steps seemed to become heavy.

Soon, only Xiao Zhan, the three elders, Xiao Yan, and Xiao Xun'er remained in the hall.

Hun Cang was invited by Xiao Zhan to sit in the seat of honor, with Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun'er sitting next to him.

After exchanging pleasantries, the group became somewhat acquainted over the topic of Xiao Yan's annulment of the engagement.

"Brother, I've embarrassed you," Xiao Yan said dejectedly.

He had always believed that after transmigrating, he was the protagonist and that a vast and beautiful sky awaited him to explore and soar through.

The successive setbacks made Xiao Yan feel somewhat ashamed.

He felt even more ashamed after learning about Hun Cang.

First and foremost, there's strength. Hun Cang has already become a Dou Huang, making him a powerful figure in the Jia Ma Empire.

He himself was still at the third level of fighting power.

Most importantly, the two are not that far apart in age.

It's true what they say, comparisons are the thief of joy!

Secondly, Xiao Yan himself didn't expect Nalan Yanran to annul the engagement today.

What was even more unexpected was that, when Nalan Yanran brought up the Yunlan Sect and became aggressive, it was her elder brother who came to her rescue.

This is so frustrating...

Hun Cang wanted to laugh, but not wanting to ruin his image as a good older brother, he held back and said, "A real man can get up from where he falls down. You can defeat her in three years, right?"

Xiao Yan nodded, then shook his head and said, "It's not that simple, brother. I can cultivate, and she can improve too. I already wasted three years; how can I catch up so easily?"

He looked dejected, and remembering that harmful ring, he couldn't help but grit his teeth!

"It's alright, with your older brother here, you can focus on your cultivation. Leave the rest to me!" Hun Cang said calmly.

This work was compiled and uploaded by [author's name].

Xiao Zhan chimed in, "Yes, Yan'er, your father will help you. Just focus on your cultivation."

"That's right, young patriarch. The entire clan supports you. If you need anything, just ask us old folks," said the eldest elder.

The second and third elders also nodded.

"You..." Xiao Yan looked at Hun Cang, who had a serious expression, and choked up, "Big brother, don't worry, I will definitely cultivate hard and not let you down."

After chatting for a while, Xiao Zhan and the three elders took the initiative to leave, leaving the space for the child to talk.

Xiao Xun'er scrutinized Hun Cang for a few seconds before taking her leave.

Xiao Yan faced Hun Cang alone. This was the second time the two had met. He was a little awkward and nervous, but Hun Cang acted like a brother, putting his arm around Xiao Yan's shoulder and talking about his life in his previous life.

The two quickly grew closer to each other.

After having dinner at the Xiao family's house, Hun Cang accepted Xiao Zhan's invitation without hesitation and decided to stay at the Xiao family's house.

Over the next few days, he had Xiao Yan buy medicinal herbs, had Yao Chen refine them, and then he would hand them over to Xiao Yan. For a time, rewards kept coming, and he was getting freebies from the system like crazy.

"Kid, you've gone too far. It was clearly me who worked so hard to refine these, and you've taken all the credit." After Xiao Yan left again, happily carrying the cultivation supplies, Yao Chen couldn't help but pop out of his ring.

After spending a few days together, he discovered that although Hun Cang was a member of the Soul Clan, he was different from those sinister guys. He had become bolder and would make some jokes.

Hun Cang carefully put away the pills awarded by the system, then smiled at him and said, "If you hadn't secretly absorbed my second brother's battle qi, he wouldn't have been bullied like this. Now you're making medicine to compensate him, isn't that the right thing to do?"

"..." Yao Chen was speechless. How could these be the same?

My situation was special at the time, and I had no choice but to take the medication. I will definitely make it up to you when I recover.

Now, every time Xiao Yan comes over, he has to complain about himself.

After glaring at Hun Cang, Yao Chen noticed the commotion and retreated back into his ring.

"Brother Hun Cang, may I come in?" A clear voice came from outside the door the next second.

"Please come in."

As soon as Hun Cang finished speaking, the door was pushed open, and a girl wearing a light blue dress and possessing an aura as pure as a lotus walked in.

"Sister Xun'er, what brings you here?" Hun Cang asked calmly upon seeing the visitor.

As early as the day Nalan Yanran broke off the engagement, Hun Cang felt that Xiao Xun'er's gaze was fixed on him.

"Brother Hun Cang, why are you so good to Brother Xiao Yan?" Xiao Xun'er asked expressionlessly, her voice slow and deliberate, with a faint golden flame flickering in her eyes.

Just because others don't know doesn't mean she's unaware of Hun Cang's origins.
