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

Chapter 78 Teacher when there's trouble, old man when there's nothing to do.

Having not seen Hun Cang for a long time, Xiao Yan couldn't wait to go and say hello.

Hearing the voice behind him, Xiao Yan turned around, his impatient gaze falling on the man surrounded by the crowd: "Is there anything else?"

"I am Yun Leng, the Grand Elder of the Yunlan Sect." Yun Leng introduced himself in a calm manner. Seeing that Xiao Yan's gaze was normal and showed no respect, he felt somewhat displeased.

Yun Ling pointed to Mo Li beside him and said, "Xiao Yan, a disciple has accused you of murdering his family elders and relatives."

"Him?" Xiao Yan frowned, finding the young man somewhat familiar.

"His name is Mo Li," Yun Leng said. "He is the Grand Elder of the Mo family and an outer sect steward of my Yunlan Sect. We need your cooperation in investigating this matter."

"Oh..." Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan remembered that when Nalan Yanran came to the Xiao family, she was indeed accompanied by a young man.

He asked blankly, "Mo Li, you'd better provide evidence. When did I ever lay a hand on anyone from your Mo family?"

Mo Li shouted, "Have you forgotten what happened in Stone Desert City a month ago?!"

Mo Li didn't know the specifics, because his family seemed to be very wary of the matter, but he remembered the time and place of the incident.

This incident resulted in the loss of several elders for the Mo family, causing a significant decline in their strength and even affecting their status in Yancheng.

"So those people were from your Mo family!" A hint of killing intent flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes as he narrowed them slightly. "I was planning to find the person behind this after the Yunlan Sect matter was over. This makes things convenient for me!"

Since entering the Tagor Desert, Xiao Yan has been living with his two older brothers and cultivating on his days.

During this time, he got along very well with Qinglin. Perhaps because Qinglin had been taken care of by his elder brother, Xiao Yan always treated her like a younger sister.

A month ago, a group of people suddenly arrived and tried to take action without any explanation, intending to take Qinglin away. They even injured many members of the Mo Tie Mercenary Group.

When Xiao Yan returned and saw this, he was enraged and, together with Hai Bodong, killed all those people.

Afterwards, with the three-year agreement approaching, he didn't waste time investigating, and Hai Bodong promised that he would use his connections when he arrived in the capital.

Therefore, Xiao Yan put it aside for the time being.

the other side.

Xiao Ding also explained the whole story to Hun Cang in detail, worried that Hun Cang might misunderstand that his younger brother had deliberately provoked the Yunlan Sect and caused trouble for Hun Cang.

Hun Cang smiled indifferently. He didn't care about the Yunlan Sect at all. Such a sect might be terrifying to people like Xiao Ding and Elder Jia.

But for me, a single word can destroy me.

However, there was one thing that still concerned Hun Cang, so he asked with a smile, "What happened to Qing Lin afterward?"

Xiao Ding's expression stiffened, and he told the truth: "Later, a woman who claimed to be from the Heavenly Serpent Palace appeared. She was a Dou Huang herself and brought a sixth-order magical beast with her. Qing Lin was taken away by them."

After saying that, he immediately added, "Lord Cang, but Xiao Yan and Lord Hai stopped them. A spirit appeared and said that Qing Lin's trip to the Heavenly Serpent Palace would be beneficial, so Xiao Yan allowed them to take her away."

"Don't be nervous." Hun Cang smiled warmly and patted Xiao Ding on the shoulder. "I also wanted to send that girl there back then, but she didn't want to, so I didn't force her."

After Hun Cang finished speaking, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li breathed a long sigh of relief, their tense bodies relaxing a bit.

They were afraid that Hun Cang would misunderstand Xiao Yan because of this, or that it would create a rift between the two.

At this moment, the argument in the square once again drew everyone's attention.

"Xiao Yan, it seems that my Yunlan Sect really didn't wrong you. You can't leave the Yunlan Sect today no matter what." Elder Yunling's face turned cold after hearing Xiao Yan's words.

As soon as he finished speaking, the elders around him moved swiftly, forming a circle around Xiao Yan.

Seeing the other party's swift movements, Xiao Yan was slightly taken aback, then sneered, "Heh, I'm afraid you never intended for me to leave the Yunlan Sect after Nalan Yanran's defeat, did you? This is the kind of backbone a top sect in the Jia Ma Empire has? You might as well close down long ago. What's the point of taking on disciples? It's shameful!"

Xiao Yan would never believe that these people could move so uniformly without prior communication.

However, he wasn't worried, because his older brother was there!

"Boy, stop twisting the facts. What we need to talk to you about now is the matter of you killing members of the outer sect elders' families of my Yunlan Sect." Yun Ling raised his hand and waved, signaling the elders to attack and subdue Xiao Yan together.

There were people watching, and Xiao Yan was sharp-tongued; if he continued talking, it would only make things worse for the Yunlan Sect.

Seeing this, the elders exchanged glances and tacitly approached Xiao Yan.

On the tree canopy.

Seeing this, Elder Jia couldn't help but shake his head: "I've heard rumors of Yun Ling's narrow-mindedness before, but this is the first time I've actually witnessed it."

"Hehe, this kid is in trouble. If he had pretended to be stupid just now, he would have been fine and at least he could have left Yunlan Sect. But now... his chances are slim." Mu Chen sighed.

The Yunlan Sect, being such a behemoth, always seeks to have a legitimate reason for its actions.

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

It's fine if I can't find an excuse for him.

In his opinion, Xiao Yan was too young to admit that he dared to take the initiative. How could someone from a small place like Wutan City possibly fight against the Yunlan Sect?

Upon hearing this, Mittel Tengshan chuckled. Seeing Hai Bodong staring intently at a young man, he couldn't help but nudge him with his shoulder: "Old man Bing, who is that young man? Why are you staring at him?"

"None of your business." Although Hai Bodong is known as the Ice Emperor, he has a more volatile temper than the one who plays with fire. In addition, he used to be an elder of the Mittel family, so he has no good temper towards Mittel Tengshan.

Mittel Tengshan, having been rebuffed, decided not to embarrass himself further and changed the subject, saying, "Xiao Yan is going to be in trouble, and you're not going to make a move? I don't believe you just happened to be here with him."

"Me? Take action?" Hai Bodong glanced disdainfully at Yun Leng and his group. "Yun Leng thinks he can take down Xiao Yan? He'll be in for a world of hurt later."

After saying that, Hai Bodong crossed his arms without explaining, but he was just wondering to himself whether he would have a chance to show off later.

It's been a while since I last saw him, and the pressure from Hun Cang is even greater now. He's a truly terrifying young man!

Mittel Tengshan looked at Xiao Yan with surprise and found that even when facing a group of elders, there was no panic on Xiao Yan's somewhat youthful face.

"I wonder what gives them that confidence?" Mittel Tengshan asked curiously.

Elder Jia, Mu Chen, Fa Ma, and the others could also see that Xiao Yan was full of confidence, and they couldn't help but feel curious.

At this moment, Xiao Yan was communicating with Yao Chen in his mind: "Teacher! Quick! Lend me your power, I need to show off."

"Get lost. You call me 'teacher' when you need something, and 'old man' when you don't. I can't be bothered with you," Yao Chen said irritably.

"No, teacher." Xiao Yan panicked a little. How could he possibly get close to an elder of the Yunlan Sect? He quickly changed his mind. "If you lend me your power, I'll put in a good word for you with my elder brother later. Don't you want a body? I'll put in a good word for you later."

Upon hearing the word "body," Yao Chen shuddered: "Don't try to fool this old man, kid!"

"No! Trust me." Xiao Yan hurriedly said, as the elders were almost in front of him!

Xiao Yan did not receive a response from Yao Chen, but he felt a powerful force rising within him. He stared at Yun Leng, a cruel smile playing on his lips.
