"Nalan Yanran? Mr. Nalan's granddaughter Nalan Yanran?"
Xiao Zhan was stunned at first, and then he was overjoyed, and said to Nalan Yanran enthusiastically:
"It turns out she is Nalan's niece. Uncle Xiao hasn't seen you for many years. Don't blame uncle for his poor eyesight."
"Uncle Xiao, my niece should apologize for not coming to see me, but how dare I blame you, Uncle Xiao?"
Nalan Yanran also smiled sweetly, behaving politely and gracefully without losing her noble demeanor.
Next, Xiao Zhan and Nalan Yanran exchanged greetings warmly again.
Nalan Yanran also responded seriously one by one, with a decent smile on her pretty face all the time, and did not neglect Xiao Zhan.
It was not until Xiao Zhan mentioned that Nalan Yanran was accepted as a disciple by Yun Yun that Ge Ye took over the conversation and said with a smile:
"Haha, Chief Xiao, what I am asking for today is related to Yanran, and it was the Lord Sect Master who asked for it personally."
Xiao Zhan is not a stupid man. Based on the various behaviors of Ge Ye and Nalan Yanran after they arrived at the Xiao family, he has already guessed what Ge Ye might say next.
However, he still held on to a glimmer of hope and said with a trembling voice:
"Mr. Kuzuha, please speak!"
"cough"
A trace of embarrassment also appeared on Ge Ye's old face, but thinking of Nalan Yanran's talent and her importance to Yunlan Sect, he still sorted out his words and said with a smile:
"Patriarch Xiao, you also know that the Yunlan Sect has a strict style, and the Sect Master has high expectations for Yanran."
"Because of some special rules, the heir of the sect master cannot have any relationship with men before he officially becomes the sect master."
"The Lord Sect Master wants to ask Patriarch Xiao to cancel the engagement."
Ge Ye did not take advantage of his power to bully others, but discussed the matter seriously with Xiao Zhan. What he proposed was to ask Patriarch Xiao to cancel the engagement instead of unilaterally announcing the cancellation of the engagement.
But Xiao Zhan and his son are extremely sensitive people. They don't care about other people's etiquette, but only care about their own face and interests.
When he heard that Nalan Yanran wanted to request to cancel the engagement, his face immediately turned gloomy and anger rose.
Ge Ye also knew that this was a bit too much, but a forced melon is not sweet. Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran were not a match. From the perspective of his own sect's reputation and interests, the engagement between Nalan Yanran and Xiao Yan should have been cancelled.
Immediately, he sighed softly and said:
"Chief Xiao, I know this request is a little unreasonable, but please cancel this engagement for the sake of our Lord."
What Ge Ye said was still not to cancel the engagement, but to ask Xiao Zhan to cancel the engagement.
boom!
In response to Ge Ye, there was the powerful aura of a five-star Grand Fighting Master on Xiao Zhan's body. A faint green fighting spirit condensed into an illusory lion head on Xiao Zhan's head.
Looking at Xiao Zhan's reaction, Ge Ye did not dare to be negligent. The aura of the Great Fighting Master Seven Stars burst out, and he moved his body to block in front of Nalan Yanran.
As the two men gained momentum, many young people in the hall felt their blood boiling and their faces turned pale.
Only Gu Changqing and Xiao Xun'er played it down and looked normal.
"Brother Qing, do you think it's right for Nalan Yanran to come and cancel the engagement?"
Xiao Xun'er looked at the two people who were on the verge of a fight, tilted her pretty face slightly, looked at Gu Changqing and asked.
"Sister Xun'er, you are wrong."
"Nalan Yanran came to Uncle Xiao's house to ask him to cancel the engagement, rather than unilaterally announcing the breakup. I can only say that Uncle Xiao and his family are too sensitive. What was supposed to be a peaceful breakup was turned into a humiliation."
Gu Changqing also shook his head. He was actually not optimistic about the Xiao family father and son.
Just now, Ge Ye said that asking Patriarch Xiao to cancel the engagement means giving you the initiative. You just need to say a few polite words, take out the marriage certificate, and cancel the engagement peacefully.
But Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yan were both extremely sensitive people, and subconsciously understood that this was a humiliation.
Who is that person? Is it necessary for him to come out of his way to humiliate you?
Well, now even if it’s not a humiliation, it has become a humiliation.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 7 Gu Changqing, what are you laughing at?
"That's right, Uncle Xiao and the others are too sensitive. Something that could have been resolved peacefully had to be turned into this."
Xiao Xun'er also shook her head, slightly disappointed with Xiao Zhan's reaction.
At this time, with the roar of the three elders, the furious Xiao Zhan also calmed down.
He looked at Nalan Yanran grimly and said hoarsely:
"Niece Nalan, you are so courageous. Nalan Su is really envious of having a daughter like you!"
"Uncle Xiao"
Nalan Yanran still wanted to have a good talk with Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan interrupted her directly.
"Haha, just call me Chief Xiao. I can't bear the title of uncle. My Yan'er is just a mediocre person and is indeed not worthy of you!"
Xiao Zhan's tone was cold and full of sarcasm.
However, Ge Ye, who was standing by, misunderstood.
He quickly took out the apology gift he had prepared in advance and said with an apologetic smile:
"Thank you for your understanding, Chief Xiao. Chief Xiao, the Lord Sect Master knows that what happened today was too abrupt and a little impolite, so he specially asked me to bring something as an apology!"
As he spoke, Ge Ye stretched out his hand and handed out an ancient jade box that was entirely green.
As the box was opened, a strange fragrance immediately filled the entire hall, and the smell lifted my spirits.
The three elders leaned forward curiously, and then exclaimed:
"Gathering Qi and dispersing!"
In the Fighting Continent, the prerequisite for becoming a true fighter is to condense the fighting energy in your body.
However, the failure rate of condensing the fighting energy cyclone is quite high.
After all, not everyone is a genius like Gu Changqing, Xiao Xun'er and Xiao Yan.
After failure, strength will decline.
Therefore, the alchemists of the Douqi Continent invented a kind of Qi Gathering Powder that allows people to condense the Douqi vortex 100%.
Only one is needed to give birth to a one-star fighter genius with 100% certainty.
This elixir is a genuine fourth-grade elixir.
In a word, for a small family like the Xiao family, it is like a treasure.
Then, Ge Ye explained the Qi Gathering Powder to everyone and also involved Master Gu He, the Dan King of the Jiama Empire.
Just when everyone thought that the cancellation of the engagement had been resolved perfectly.
The person who took the initiative to stir up trouble jumped out.
"Mr. Ge Ye, you'd better take the pills back. We may not agree to what you said today!"
The hall suddenly fell silent. Xiao Yan, who had long been forgotten in the corner, stood up at this moment.
"Xiao Yan, you have no right to speak here, shut up!"
An elder scolded.
"Xiao Yan, please step back. I know you feel bad, but we will be the boss here!"
Another old man also spoke.
"Three elders, if the person they are breaking off the engagement with today is your son or grandson, would you still say that?"
Xiao Yan did not obey, but retorted with a mocking tone.
"you"
"Tongue-splitting!"
"Xiao Yan, Mr. Ge Ye came to ask for the cancellation of the engagement, not the divorce!"
"Moreover, even if the person who broke off the engagement is our son or grandson, if our son or grandson is like you, with bad behavior and low talent, we will take the initiative to go to their door and ask them to cancel the engagement without them having to come to our door to break off the engagement!"
The three elders are not vegetarians either.
This time, Xiao Xun'er did not stand up to interrupt the three elders, nor did Xiao Xun'er take the initiative to speak for Xiao Yan.
Therefore, the three elders refuted Xiao Yan mercilessly.
Xiao Yan's behavior had already become a laughing stock in the entire Wutan City.
Otherwise, after his talent was gone, there wouldn't be so many people hating him.
"You! You guys!"
Xiao Yan had no idea that the three elders would be so disrespectful to him that they actually exposed his bad conduct and poor talent in front of outsiders.
For a moment, he was so angry that his face turned red, his pupils slightly dilated, and he looked like he was ready to bite someone.
"Okay, that's enough!"
Xiao Zhan roared, and with the aura of a five-star Grand Master, he forcibly suppressed the three elders who wanted to taunt Xiao Yan.
Xiao Zhan looked at Xiao Yan helplessly and said:
"Yan'er, today's incident was caused by the incompetence of both my father and I. I..."
"Father!"
Xiao Yan took a few deep breaths and calmed down again.
He looked directly into Xiao Zhan's eyes and said in a firm tone:
"Let me handle today's matter. After all, I am the party involved in this matter, and it is not someone else's turn to dictate my marriage!"
The last sentence was said fiercely by Xiao Yan as he looked at the three elders.
What this means is that it is not their turn to make the decision on his marriage!
"you"
Xiao Zhan stared at his youngest son, whom he was once most proud of, and Xiao Yan looked at him without flinching.
"Well, since Nalan Yanran's engagement is related to you, I'll leave this matter to you to handle. No matter how you handle it, your father will support you without hesitation!"
Xiao Zhan may not be a good patriarch, but he is definitely a good father.
"Since the old man has not spoken, please forgive me. The marriage was originally arranged by our two old men. Now that they have not spoken to cancel it, no one dares to cancel it. Otherwise, it would be a blasphemy to the lost elders! I think no one in our clan should do such a rebellious thing, right?"
Xiao Yan gave a long speech, directly using moral blackmail, and looked straight at the three elders, so that they would not dare to bear the stigma of betraying their ancestors.
However, Gu Changqing was amused by Xiao Yan's long speech and laughed out loud.
Sometimes he said that the matter was related to him and he had the right to handle it on his own. Sometimes he said that no one dared to solve the problem without the two old masters' advice. This moral kidnapping that defied the heavens was indeed very effective and left the three elders speechless.
It is estimated that Xiao Yan is not a time traveler from modern times, but an old antique of feudalism.
If no one dares to solve it, then both old men are dead and there is no evidence, so they have to get married. It's really a joke.
Gu Changqing's laughter seemed extremely abrupt in the quiet hall.
Many people turned to look at him.
Xiao Yan also looked in his direction upon hearing the voice, and then his eyes darkened.
This Gu Changqing, not only is not a member of the Xiao family, but he also goes against him in every way.
If it wasn't him, how could he have been discovered when he sneaked into Xiao Xun'er's room?
If it wasn't him, how could he have been caught in advance while peeping at Xiao Yu taking a bath?
If it wasn't him.
In fact, Xiao Yan hated Gu Changqing to the core.
But he knew that Gu Changqing had a strong background and was very talented, and he couldn't afford to offend him now.
"Gu Changqing, what are you laughing at?"
Although Xiao Yan couldn't afford to offend Gu Changqing, he still dared to question him in front of so many people.
