Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

After all, Ya Fei exudes a charm that even Xiao Yixian, who is also a woman, cannot deny.

This was only the case with Xiao Yan. If it were anyone else, they would definitely not be able to stop him. If Xiao Yixian was a man, after being teased by Ya Fei like this, he would probably have even thought of the name of the child at that moment.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yixiang felt her head hurt even more.

How come I fell in love with such a person?

Little Medical Fairy sighed deeply in her heart and stared at Xiao Yan intently.

The current situation is definitely the most headache-inducing problem after the poisonous body.

Even Xiao Yixiang had a vague intuition.

This headache of mine will continue in the future and may even get worse.

Chapter 218 Visiting the Nalan Family

Seeing the Little Medical Fairy who called his name but just stood there with a frown on her face, Xiao Yan looked at her and asked cautiously.

"Um. Little Doctor Fairy, is there something wrong?"

Looking at Xiao Yan's hesitant expression, Little Medical Fairy sighed heavily again, and then said softly.

"It's alright." The Little Medical Fairy put one hand on her waist and tilted her head towards Xiao Yan. "Didn't Master Jia give you a mission? Go now."

"what"

Xiao Yan nodded blankly, raised his eyebrows in confusion, but said nothing more.

And judging from Xiao Yixian's current appearance, she should no longer be angry, and Xiao Yan's tightly clenched heart finally relaxed.

Although he still doesn't know why Xiao Yixian was angry.

Afterwards, Xiao Yan and his group walked towards the Nalan family while asking for directions on the street. Xiao Yan had been here ten years ago, but the current Jia Ma Holy City has changed a lot from ten years ago. What's more, those were Xiao Yan's memories from his childhood, so naturally he was not very clear about it.

After walking for dozens of minutes in the direction pointed by passers-by, Xiao Yan and his group finally arrived at the gate of the Nalan family.

“It hasn’t changed much here.”

Xiao Yan stroked his chin and murmured softly, except for the new plaque of "Nalan Mansion" above the door, the rest of the place was almost the same as his vague memory from childhood.

I remember that I came here to deliver the letter my grandfather wrote before he died?

Xiao Yan couldn't help but start to recall the reasons why he came to Nalan Mansion, while Xiao Yixian looked at the plaque above her head and frowned slightly.

This is the Nalan family's home, which means that after they go in, Xiao Yan will meet his fiancée Nalan Yanran again.

By then, there will definitely be another secret battle between her and me, so I have to be prepared in advance.

After all, Nalan Yanran had the title of fiancée, which was enough to be called a killer, and his current relationship with Xiao Yan was just friends. Even if he fell in love with Xiao Yan, it was only one-sided.

Just as Xiao Yixian was brainstorming, Xiao Yan walked forward and looked at the two handles on the door.

On both sides of the gate there is a bronze lion head with an iron ring in its mouth.

Xiao Yan stretched out his hand and gently pinched the iron ring, then hit the door three times with the iron ring neither lightly nor heavily, then stepped back and waited quietly.

After a while, the heavy door in front of Xiao Yan and his group was slowly opened. An old man who looked like a butler looked at Xiao Yan and his group. His old eyes first sized them up, and when he saw the little lion king, a hint of astonishment flashed in his eyes, which quickly turned into a look of realization.

The butler stepped out from the crack of the door, put his hands in front of him and inserted them into his sleeves, bowing to everyone, and asked slowly in an old voice.

"Everyone, this should be Miss's friend, right? Miss told me your characteristics when she came back, saying that you might come here to find her, and let me take you in directly then." The housekeeper said this, looking at Xiao Yan who was standing in the front, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the future son-in-law, right?"

"Uh-huh."

Hearing the butler addressing him, Xiao Yan was stunned at first, then he scratched his cheek awkwardly and nodded in response.

Since he was Nalan Yanran's fiancé, it was okay for the housekeeper of the Nalan family to call him future son-in-law.

However, Xiao Yan was just embarrassed, but the Little Medical Fairy beside him was a little unhappy.

The butler's call of "son-in-law" sounded so harsh to Little Doctor Fairy.

Immediately, Little Medical Fairy suddenly noticed that while an embarrassed expression appeared on her face, there should also be a hint of doubt and confusion in Xiao Yan's eyes, and his brows were slightly wrinkled.

At this moment, the butler turned around, pushed open the door, and sincerely welcomed Xiao Yan and his party.

"Everyone, please come in. I will take you to see the young lady and the master."

After he finished speaking, the butler turned around and led the way, while Little Medical Fairy asked Xiao Yan in a puzzled tone.

"Xiao Yan, what's wrong?"

She saw clearly the confusion in Xiao Yan's eyes just now. Xiao Yan must have felt very strange about something.

However, Xiao Yan did not answer Xiao Yixian's question immediately. He just shook his head slightly and glanced at Xiao Yixian and others.

"Let's go in."

Looking at Xiao Yan who was following the housekeeper, Little Medical Fairy frowned.

Xiao Yan must have discovered something wrong.

But since Xiao Yan didn't say it, he must have his own considerations. Xiao Yixian would not force him to say it. She followed Ziyun Qinglin and the little lion king and stepped into the Nalan family's mansion.

It has to be said that the Nalan family is really big. Even Xiao Yan couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this is much bigger than his own home.

Zi Yun was also looking at this luxurious mansion all the way. If she was a Warcraft, this mansion would not be a big deal to her. But now looking at it as a human, she was indeed a little shocked.

"Are all your human houses this big?"

Ziyun looked at Xiao Yixian and asked, and Xiao Yixian waved her hand helplessly.

"How is that possible? This mansion is one of the best in the Gama Empire."

Ziyun came from the mountains, so it was normal for her not to know anything, but Xiao Yixiang, as an ordinary person, knew everything very well.

Take Wanyaozhai in Qingshan Town as an example. It has only two floors, with a shop on the lower floor and people living on the upper floors. Don't even think about having a yard. That's not something that ordinary people like Xiao Yixi can enjoy.

Even so, the house of Wanyaozhai is considered quite luxurious among the common people in Qingshan Town.

After answering Ziyun's question, the Little Medical Fairy looked around the rather large courtyard, her brows furrowed tightly.

Until this moment, she finally experienced firsthand what the status gap and the gap between the rich and the poor meant.

I would be cheering for finding more than one million gold coins from the cave, but in the eyes of the Nalan family, these one million gold coins are probably just a drizzle.

At least in this respect, there is a natural gap between his conditions and Nalan Yanran's.

Of course, Xiao Yixian didn't think that Xiao Yan would be the kind of person who despised the poor and loved the rich. Otherwise, as the future son-in-law of the Nalan family, he would not have been on good terms with her and Boss Yao, and he would not have risked his life for a commoner girl like her.

But there was one thing that Xiao Yixiang had to admit.

It is very important to marry someone of the same social status.

What is pursued in a match made in heaven is not only family background, but also the education and concepts that both men and women have received over the years. When two people from unequal social status face the same problem, their views are likely to be completely opposite, and therefore a match made in heaven is more acceptable.

In short, Xiao Yan's fiancée is quite troublesome.

Although Xiao Yan's attitude towards Nalan Yanran is the same as his attitude towards himself, he just regards her as a friend.

Although this made Xiao Yixiang angry, she was also glad.

After all, if Xiao Yan didn't hold this attitude, there would probably be no room for him to intervene between the two of them.

However, as a woman, and after experiencing the conversation with Nalan Yanran on the commercial street, Xiao Yixian was completely certain that Nalan Yanran's feelings for Xiao Yan were by no means limited to that of a fiancée.

She sincerely wanted to remove the word "unmarried".

Trouble.

While Little Medical Fairy was racking her brains over how to deal with this tough opponent, Nalan Yanran, the butler led the group to a house and gently knocked on the door.

"Master, Young Master Xiao Yan and his friends are here."

"Xiao Yan is here?!"

As soon as the housekeeper finished speaking, the door of the house was opened from the inside, and Nalan Yanran's obviously happy expression appeared in front of Xiao Yan and others.

The next person he saw was Nalan Jie sitting in the house.

"Xiao Yan, you're here."

Seeing the arrival of his old friend's grandson, Nalan Jie's expression relaxed. Nalan Yanran stepped out of the door, reached out without hesitation to grab Xiao Yan's arm and pulled him into the house.

"Come in and sit down! Grandpa and I were just chatting about you!"

Faced with such an enthusiastic Nalan Yanran, Xiao Yan was too embarrassed to refuse and let her pull him into the house.

When the Little Medical Fairy saw this scene, her brows twitched and she clenched her silver teeth secretly. She and the Little Lion King with Green Scales and Purple Rhythm also entered the house.

Looking at Xiao Yan sitting next to Nalan Jie, and Nalan Yanran sitting next to Xiao Yan and looking at him with a smile, the Little Medical Fairy clenched her pink fists slightly, breathed a sigh of relief, and pulled Qing Lin to sit opposite Xiao Yan.

Ziyun also sat down, leaning back on the chair with her legs crossed without any hesitation, and reached out to gently stroke the head of the little lion king squatting beside the chair.

When he saw the little lion king closing his eyes and enjoying Ziyun's caress, Nalan Jie's pupils suddenly shrank.

Even Mu Zhan could recognize that the little lion king was the cub of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, so there was no reason for Nalan Jie, the Lionhearted Marshal, not to recognize it.

Looking at the outstanding Zi Yun, and recalling the fleeting fighting spirit of Jia Xingtian and another unknown Dou Huang coming from the direction of the commercial street just now, Nalan Jie had some guesses in his mind.

The one who was confronting Jia Xingtian should be this purple-haired woman.

After seeing everyone seated, the butler tactfully nodded to Nalan Jie, then left the room and slowly closed the door.

"Grandpa Nalan, I heard from Elder Jia that you haven't been feeling well these past two days. Is there something wrong?"

Xiao Yan looked at Nalan Jie with worry in his eyes, and Xiao Yixian seemed to have thought of what happened in the Tagor Desert that day. A trace of guilt flashed in her eyes. She was about to say something when Nalan Jie, who noticed her expression, raised his hand to interrupt her.

"Girl, don't worry. This has nothing to do with your incident. You don't need to feel guilty." Nalan Jie said to Xiao Yixian in a gentle voice, and then looked at Xiao Yan and replied, "It's just that there have been a lot of things going on recently, which made me a little tired, so I asked Master Jia for permission to go home and rest for two days. It's nothing serious."

"That's it."

Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Like Xiao Yixian, he was also worried that Nalan Jie's health had problems because he helped Xiao Yixian suppress his surging Dou Qi that day. Now it seemed that he was worrying too much.

Next, Xiao Yan chatted with Nalan Jie about some topics, such as the current situation of the Xiao family. There were too many things to do when they were in the Snake Tribe before, and there was no time for Nalan Jie and Xiao Yan, a child they hadn't seen for ten years, to have a good chat. This time, there was finally a chance.

After some small talk, Nalan Jie turned his gaze to Ziyun and asked softly.

"Xiao Yan, may I ask who this is?"

"She is Ziyun, a friend of mine, and that little Amethyst Winged Lion King is her son."

Anyway, the person in front of him is Nalan Jie. Besides, Nalan Yanran also knows that Sister Ziyun is the Amethyst Winged Lion King, so there is no need to hide it.

"Oh, that's how it is."

After hearing Xiao Yan's answer, Nalan Jie didn't react at first, but nodded in understanding.

Then his expression suddenly froze, and he finally figured out what Xiao Yan had just said.

Xiao Yan said that the little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King is the son of this woman?

If that's the case, then this woman is... the Amethyst Winged Lion King? !

Nalan Jie's eyes were full of astonishment, but he calmed down after a few seconds.

I guess this is the person who had confronted Mr. Jia in the direction of the commercial street before.

Since she was able to come to the Nalan family with Xiao Yan, it proved that Jia Lao had already determined that Zi Yun would not pose a threat and there was no need for him to worry.

At this time, Xiao Yan spoke to Nalan Jie.

"Grandpa Nalan, I want to talk to you about something."

Nalan Jie frowned slightly, thinking of the fact that Xiao Yan had just met Jia Xingtian, he understood something in his heart and glanced at Nalan Yanran beside Xiao Yan without leaving a trace.

I couldn't help but feel a little sad.

(It seems that Jia Lao still doesn’t trust Yan Ran)

Nalan Jie sighed like this, but he also understood that this could not be blamed on Jia Xingtian.

He is the ruler of a country and is responsible for the entire Gama Empire, so it is natural for him to be suspicious.

If you really want to blame someone, you should blame yourself.

I shouldn't have agreed to let Nalan Yanran go to Yunlan Sect in the first place.

Immediately, Nalan Jie looked at Nalan Yanran.

"Yanran, take these guests to the reception room and entertain them properly. Xiao Yan and I will talk alone."

"what"

Nalan Yanran nodded, with some doubt in her eyes.
