Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Ten Ferocious Heavenly Horned Ant

After successfully passing the Xiao family's coming-of-age ceremony and testing his ninth-level Dou Qi, Xiao Yan found Dong Qing that very evening and said he wanted to cook a meal for him personally to thank him for speaking up for him and his father Xiao Zhan at the family gathering.

Dong Qing was well aware of Xiao Yan's ulterior motives. After throwing out a packet of Qi-gathering powder, a special product for level nine Dou Qi, he chased the annoying brat away. He still had to appease the thirsty Mittel-Yafei that night.

"Do you really want to go?" Dong Qing looked at Xiao Yan and the others.

"Yes." Xiao Yan and the others nodded vigorously.

"You can prepare the carriage yourselves. Just follow me later." Dong Qing waved his hand impatiently. These little brats just love to join in the fun.

"Thank you, Uncle Dongqing!" Xiao Yan still loved to court death.

"Thank you, Elder Dongqing." Xiao Ning and the others were very honest.

After they left.

"Senior Dongqing, that young man just now should be the legendary Xiao family genius, Xiao Yan. But I heard that his Dou Qi disappeared inexplicably, and the more he cultivates, the lower his Dou Qi becomes?" Yao Ye asked curiously.

“The problem has been found and resolved. He has now returned to the Dou Zhe realm,” Dong Qing explained.

"Excuse my curiosity, but about him..." Yao Ye hesitated, unsure whether she should ask such a private question.

Seeing this scene.

Xiao Xun'er and Xiao Yu, who did not leave with Xiao Yan and his group, immediately realized that this so-called princess of the empire was also a wicked woman who harbored ill intentions towards their Qing-gege [Uncle Dongqing].

"It's nothing, just some old codger trying to trick him, draining his fighting spirit. His talent has never disappeared, it's just been suppressed. He's always been that young genius," Dong Qing said calmly.

the other side.

"Xiao Yan, did you see that? That female knight was so cool! I was standing in front of her and I didn't even dare to talk to her," Xiao Ning exclaimed.

Because of the presence of the Eastern Green.

Xiao Yan did not do anything outrageous to Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu's younger brother Xiao Ning did not have a bad impression of Xiao Yan. Although Xiao Ning was among those who mocked and ridiculed Xiao Yan during those three years, they never reached the point of turning against each other.

Now that Xiao Yan's talent has been restored and he has returned to the Dou Zhe realm, he has once again moved closer to Xiao Yan.

That's not surprising.

Although Xiao Yan and Xiao Ning are not close relatives, they are family and are cousins.

As long as you're willing to admit your mistakes, those past sarcastic remarks aren't so hard to let go of.

Xiao Ning isn't one of those mindless psychopaths in novels who would inexplicably poison their own kind, or even their own brothers, without any deep-seated hatred.

He was just talking big, not seeing how Xiao Yan's fighting spirit was getting lower and lower, and how he bullied Xiao Yan and said those disgusting things while stepping on Xiao Yan's head.

"What a pity, she's someone who uses a long spear, so she's not within my range of potential partners." Xiao Yan smacked his lips and defined Yao Ye, the princess of the empire.

"Brother Xiao Yan, you're not allowed to look at her, you can only look at me," Xiao Mei said unhappily.

Ever since Xiao Yan regained his talent and became a young genius again, she started to revolve around him again. Unfortunately, it was too late; Xiao Yan had already seen through her true colors.

as predicted.

Xiao Yan ignored Xiao Mei completely, turned around, hooked his arm around Xiao Ning's shoulder, and whispered, "Do you know that spearmen have always been unlucky?"

Xiao Ning may have a foul mouth, but he didn't really do anything to him. Besides, he had already apologized for what happened before, so he would reluctantly forgive him.

But Xiao Mei, that kind of snobbish woman, didn't even want to talk to him. He had already figured out when he was still on Earth that women were unreliable.

"Lucky?"

Xiao Ning couldn't understand this sentence from Earth, nor did he understand the meaning behind Xiao Yan's statement.

"You don't know? That's right, you really don't know." Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then realized that the other party definitely wouldn't understand these remarks from Earth.

"Xiao Yan, what do you mean? I'm your cousin!" Xiao Ning said unhappily.

Yes.

The other person was his cousin. Although he had become a bit foul-mouthed over the years, he wasn't a good person three years ago either, otherwise the other person wouldn't have been so sarcastic.

Xiao Yan patted his head, no longer trying to dodge the question.

"Hehe, let me put it this way, the total luck of all spearmen in the world is ten dou, Zhao Zilong has twelve dou, and the rest are short two dou," Xiao Yan said with a grin.

You know what?

He found his cousin Xiao Ning quite interesting; he couldn't beat him, nor could he argue with him, and was simply a pushover whom he could bully at will.

However, Xiao Yan wouldn't act recklessly without reason, because there weren't many people he could manipulate at will, and his cousin Xiao Ning was one of them.

"Although I don't know who Zhao Zilong is, are spearmen really that unlucky? Besides, on the battlefield, most soldiers use spears," Xiao Ning said, puzzled.

From small to large.

He had heard Xiao Yan use too many words he didn't understand and heard too many unfamiliar names. He was already used to it and didn't even bother to ask who Zhao Zilong was.

"So, there are a few of them who can walk off the battlefield with all their limbs intact." Xiao Yan shrugged.

"That makes sense!" Xiao Ning clapped his hands, immediately realizing the truth.

"So, you understand why spearmen have bad luck now, right?" Xiao Yan asked, looking like he was a promising student.

As he said.

Most people who use guns have to go to the battlefield. Apart from Zhao Zilong of Changshan, how many gunmen are as famous in history as him and died peacefully in their old age?

"Understood." Xiao Ning nodded.

Male friendships are that simple. As long as it doesn't involve matters of principle, if one party backs down and apologizes, the grudges can be resolved.

Women are a different story. If a woman looks down on a man, she's very likely to betray him directly. It's not impossible for her to cheat on him.

Therefore, Xiao Ning and Xiao Yan, who were brothers, could reconcile their past grievances, but Xiao Yan was unable to restore his feelings for his cousin Xiao Mei to what they used to be.

It is worth mentioning that.

Xiao Yan and Xiao Mei are related by blood beyond three generations. Although they are cousins, their marriage would be legal even in the Earth world.

On the contrary, Xiao Yan and Xiao Ning are related by blood within three generations, so even if he admires Xiao Yu to some extent, it is impossible for him to have anything happen with Xiao Yu.

..............

The Empire of Jiama, Yunlan Sect.

"Teacher! Can you take me with you to the Alchemist Conference this year?!"

Nalan Yanran held the hand of a woman around thirty years old, her attitude suggesting she wouldn't let go unless she was allowed to go. It was clear that she was determined to go.

"Yanran, aren't you usually uninterested in this Alchemist Conference? Last time, when your teacher wanted to take you, you refused! Why are you acting all cute and clingy with your teacher now?"

The woman who is speaking.

A simple dress clung to her voluptuous figure, her long black hair styled into an elegant phoenix headdress, her beautiful face serene and tranquil, yet revealing an air of grace and nobility that the simple dress could not conceal.

She is Yun Yun, one of the top ten strongest figures in the Jiama Empire, a Douhuang-level expert, and the current sect leader of the Yunlan Sect. She is a woman who is already quite old and lacks the nourishment of a man.

"Teacher, I really want to go!" Nalan Yanran pouted unhappily.

Since parting ways with the Xiao family.

Even changing jobs in dreams.........

Chapter 837, Lacking Talent, So He Fell into a Frenzy of Pills.

Since parting ways with the Xiao family.

Even in my dreams, when I change jobs... it's always that man.

It sounds a little embarrassing, but that's the reality.

Dong Qing's own appearance and temperament are very attractive to young girls, but they are not very attractive to mature women like Yun Yun, Queen Medusa, and Mittel-Yafei.

Queen Medusa and Mittel-Yafei were both actively pursued by Dongqing. Yunyun and Dongqing met a few times at the Imperial Capital Alchemist Conference, but she didn't develop any feelings for this man.

It wasn't that Dong Qing wasn't interested in Yun Yun, but rather that a certain sycophantic Pill King was keeping a close eye on him, constantly on guard against Dong Qing getting close, not giving him even the slightest chance to touch Yun Yun.

At that time, Dong Qing was busy working on Mittel-Yafei and Queen Medusa, and was not in a hurry to make a move on Yun Yun, since she would eventually be his.

"I'm really fed up with you. I asked you to go before, but you wouldn't go. Now I'm not taking you, but you insist on going." Yun Yun rubbed her delicate eyebrows, her gentle and jade-like face full of helplessness.

"Teacher, the past is the past, and the present is the present. Now I just want to go!" Nalan Yanran said sweetly.

Since parting ways with the Xiao family, she has been using the influence of the Yunlan Sect to investigate Dong Qing, and discovered that he is not only a fifth-grade alchemist, but also attends almost every alchemist conference.

"Yanran, I can take you to the Alchemist Conference, but you should honestly tell me how your arranged marriage from childhood is going? Has it caused any conflict with the Xiao family?"

As Yun Yun spoke, she thought of Nalan Yanran's marriage. She remembered that Nalan Yanran had told her last time that she wanted to break off the engagement, and she wondered what had happened.

"No, I just discussed it privately with the Xiao family patriarch and we peacefully dissolved the engagement with Xiao Yan of the Xiao family." Nalan Yanran lowered her head and tapped her fingers.

"Well done. The matter of annulment should never be made public. We must consider the man's feelings. I was worried that you, Yanran, were too naive to announce the annulment in public." Yunyun breathed a sigh of relief.

In that future that has already vanished.

Because of Nalan Yanran's willfulness and lack of understanding, she publicly broke off the engagement, severely humiliating Xiao Yan and his son, which led to the Xiao family and Yunlan Sect becoming sworn enemies.

It was because of this incident that the three-year agreement was made, which led to so many regrets and helplessness, and Yun Yun would never have any interaction with Xiao Yan.

Without the three-year agreement, Nalan Yanran could have cultivated step by step, and Yun Yun wouldn't have needed to risk her life to go to the Monster Mountain Range to steal the Purple Spirit Crystal of the King-level Rank 6 Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

Without the three-year agreement, Yunlan Sect, a place Yun Yun considered home, would not have been destroyed, and she would not have been caught in a dilemma between Xiao Yan and Yunlan Sect, ultimately finding herself in a lose-lose situation.

She was a kind woman and never intended to harm the Xiao family.

If it weren't for the subordinates taking matters into their own hands, the Yunlan Sect would never have been locked in a life-or-death struggle with the Xiao family.

"Teacher, actually I almost said it out loud at first. If he hadn't stopped me, I'm afraid my trip to the Xiao family to break off the engagement wouldn't have gone so smoothly."

After Nalan Yanran finished speaking, she glanced at Yun Yun cautiously, afraid that the other party would say that she was immature and acted without thinking.

"Who is he?" Yun Yun asked warily.

She is quite old and has never married, largely because she looks down on other men. But as she gets older, her maternal instincts are growing stronger.

To Nalan Yanran, she was not only her only disciple, but also, in a way, her daughter. She didn't want her precious disciple to be taken advantage of.

“Dongqing, a guest elder of the Xiao family.”

When Nalan Yanran said this, her cheeks couldn't help but flush.

Yunyun noticed this scene.

He harbored deep resentment in his heart.
