"I don't know either. It was passed down to me by your maternal grandmother. Your second grandfather said it's an antique with considerable collectible value. I can't give you anything else, so I'm giving this to you. Your birthday is coming up soon, and I'm giving this to you as your birthday present."

Bai Xinya gently stroked Xiao Yan's head and said softly.

"Hehe, thank you, Mom."

Xiao Yan chuckled, and as everyone enjoyed the warm moment, a wisp of white light suddenly flashed from the ancient ring in Xiao Yan's hand.

Chapter 187 Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran

Xiao Xun'er's room,

"Have you found out?" Xiao Xun'er asked the dark figure in front of her.

"I've found out that the Nalan family and the Xiao family have a marriage agreement, which was agreed upon by Xiao Lin and Nalan Jie. The betrothed is Young Master Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran from the Nalan family!"

Ling Ying spoke slowly, already drenched in sweat, knowing full well the young lady's temper.

"A marriage contract? What makes you think that! Brother Xiao Yan is actually engaged!" Xiao Xun'er burst into tears.

Ling Ying trembled all over. He was afraid that if the young lady turned her love into hatred, she would kill him to vent her anger. Although he knew that the young lady was not that kind of person, he was still a little scared.

Xiao Xun'er cried herself out and sat on the bed, hugging her legs with both hands, muttering repeatedly, "Brother Xiao Yan is such a bad guy, Brother Xiao Yan, waaaaah."

Ling Ying was overwhelmed and decided to get out of the way.

. . . . . .

Several days later, in the capital,

Xiao Yan looked left and right. This was his first time in another city. This was the capital of the Jia Ma Empire, the most prosperous city in the entire Jia Ma Empire.

"Father, I want to go have some fun," Xiao Yan chuckled.

Xiao Zhan was about to refuse, but Xiao Lin interrupted him, saying, "Yan'er, if you want to play, then go ahead and play. You two can just go with the young master."

"Yes!"

Two Grand Dou Masters accompanied Xiao Yan as he strolled through the bustling streets of the capital.

"Father, isn't this too hasty?" Xiao Zhan muttered.

"How is it hasty? I think you've gotten too big for your britches after being the clan leader for a few years, haven't you? I think you're asking for a beating!" Xiao Lin said with his arms crossed, his tone unfriendly.

"This is the capital city! How can we just let Yan'er go out and play like this?" Xiao Zhan was firm, as he valued his child's safety the most.

"Don't worry, I'm here. Besides, I've already had Ah Long secretly keep Yan'er company. Zhan'er, you're still too green," Xiao Lin sneered.

Xiao Zhan then realized that Xia Yilong, who had been following him, had disappeared.

Although Xia Yilong is the steward of the Xiao family, he is a Dou Huang level expert, and not just a beginner. A Dou Huang level expert like him would be considered strong even in the Northwest Continent.

With Xia Yilong following and protecting Xiao Yan, his safety level is much higher, at least higher than that of Xiao Zhan, a Dou Wang.

Xiao Lin continued, "Zhan'er, you probably don't know this, but your uncle has placed restrictive measures on every child in the family. You probably have one too."

Xiao Zhan then remembered that Xiao Li had previously injected a wisp of Yin-Yang Heart Flame into his body. This wisp of Yin-Yang Heart Flame could save his life in critical moments, while the Yin Flame could be used as a trump card to ambush others.

As long as Xiao Zhan uses the Yin-Yang Heart Flame's split flame, Xiao Li will sense it and rush over as quickly as possible.

"I see. But Father, aren't we going to the Nalan family as guests? Yan'er is the main character, so isn't it a bit inappropriate for him not to be there?" Xiao Zhan continued to ask.

"Uh..." Xiao Lin was speechless for a moment, then punched Xiao Zhan lightly: "You talk too much!"

. . . . . .

In a corner of the capital city,

A group of boys suddenly surrounded a little girl who looked about four or five years old. The little girl was quite pretty, with her hair neatly tied up and wearing a very nice dress. At this moment, she seemed a little "afraid".

"It's her, Boss Mu, it's Nalan Yanran who beat up all the brothers!" one of the boys said to the arrogant-looking boy in the middle.

The "frightened" little girl was actually Nalan Yanran, the daughter of the Nalan family.

The boy, known as Boss Mu, said impatiently, "Go! Teach this little girl a lesson!"

A young boy beside the old man rushed forward, intending to capture Nalan Yanran.

At this moment, Nalan Yanran's "fearful" expression immediately turned into a smile. She took a step forward and punched the boy in the face, knocking him to the ground.

"Ouch."

The boy covered his face, and when he removed his hand, his left eye had turned into a panda eye.

Boss Mu snorted coldly: "You've really embarrassed me. Today, I'll show you, little girl, what happens when you meddle in other people's business!"

As he spoke, Boss Mu didn't forget to show off his strong physique!

"Don't let her get away!" Old Master Mu waved his hand, and two of his underlings slowly stepped forward to surround Nalan Yanran.

Nalan Yanran looked left and right, her body constantly retreating.

Boss Mu grew even more arrogant: "Scared now? Too late! Ouch!"

Nalan Yanran seized the opportunity when Boss Mu was being arrogant and punched him in the eye socket, sending him flying and landing on top of the henchman.

"Boss!"

"Boss!"

The other two underlings were shocked that their boss had been defeated like this.

Nalan Yanran put her hands on her hips and said, "Hehe."

Boss Mu slowly stood up, covering his black eye, and said angrily, "How dare she ambush me! Hit her!"

The other henchmen swarmed forward, ready to gang up on Nalan Yanran. However, Nalan Yanran was not afraid at all. She flashed forward, grabbed a boy on the head, performed a backflip, and then kicked him over.

Then he turned his fist on another boy and beat him mercilessly. Boss Mu tried to find an opening behind him, but Nalan Yanran kicked him away.

Nalan Yanran quickly defeated all four teenagers. Boss Mu was knocked to the ground and ran away as soon as he saw the situation was not good.

"Nalan Yanran, you'd better wait here if you dare!" Old Mu shouted.

"Hmph! I'll wait and see!" Nalan Yanran said, crossing her arms.

Shortly after,

Boss Mu, along with a young man and his other henchmen, ran over and surrounded Nalan Yanran.

Boss Mu said, "Big Brother, it was she who did it."

The young man crossed his arms and said arrogantly, "Mu Zhan, you can't even beat a little girl? Little girl, tell me, what are we going to do today?"

Mu Zhan: "Boss, stop wasting time talking to her, beat her up!"

The young man sneered and stretched his body: "Then don't blame me for bullying the weak today."

Nalan Yanran threw another punch, aiming for the young man's left eye. However, a gaunt figure joined Nalan Yanran in attacking, striking the young man's right eye as well.

Nalan Yanran looked to the side in surprise and saw a young man of similar age to her dressed in a black and red robe.

Nalan Yanran didn't care about anything else. With her other hand, she took the wooden basket and covered the young man's head with it to block his vision. The boy who acted with Nalan Yanran immediately understood what she meant.

A sweeping kick knocked the young man to the ground, and together with Nalan Yanran, they began to punch and kick him.

Mu Zhan and his gang were stunned. The big brother they had called for had been beaten up like this by two little guys.

Mu Zhan gritted his teeth, pointed at the boy, and said, "Who are you! How dare you help that brat! Aren't you afraid we'll cause you trouble?"

Peng——

The boy punched the young man in the face, leaving another bruise, and then looked at the wooden shovel.

"Where did you come from, you little punk? You couldn't beat this young lady yourself, so you called someone else to beat her up, and after losing, you even called an adult? I despise shameless punks like you the most! Come on! Take this punch!"

The boy punched Mu Zhan right in the eye, turning both of Mu Zhan's eyes into panda eyes.

"Ahhh-"

Seeing their boss get beaten up again, Mu Zhan's other underlings were about to run away when Nalan Yanran stopped them.

With Nalan Yanran in front and an unnamed boy behind, the group of underlings immediately huddled together.

Nalan Yanran and the young man exchanged a glance and nodded to each other. Together, they rushed forward and gave the group of arrogant young men a good beating!

On the tall building next door,

A young man dressed in a luxurious brocade robe stroked his chin and said, "Why is Young Master Xiao Yan here getting into a brawl? Well done, I was beaten up by these kinds of people quite a bit back in Black Rock City."

Chapter 188 Marriage Contract? Does it mean a challenge to a fight?

What a coincidence! Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran met under such circumstances.

Suddenly, Xia Yilong, who was on the high-rise building, thought of something and took out a recording stone to capture the moment when Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran displayed their great power.

“I think Second Master (Xiao Li) will like to watch this.” Xia Yilong grinned.

under,

Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran joined forces to drive away the young man and Mu Zhan's group.

Nalan Yanran stood with her hands on her hips, looking proud: "Mu Zhan! If you dare to harass Sister Ya Fei again, I'll break your legs!"

Mu Zhan wanted to argue, but he was afraid that Nalan Yanran would catch up and beat him, so he didn't say anything and just ran away with his head covered.

Nalan Yanran then looked at Xiao Yan, crossed her arms, looked him up and down, and patted him on the shoulder: "Your martial arts are not bad. You can even understand my intentions. Not bad, not bad!"

Xiao Yan smiled slightly: "I was just passing by when I saw these guys bullying you. I couldn't stand it, so I took action. But it seems my intervention was a bit unnecessary. This young lady is more than capable of dealing with them."

Nalan Yanran said proudly, "Of course, how could he, Mu Zhan, possibly beat me? By the way, Mu Zhan is the young master of the Mu family in the capital. Isn't it alright that you beat him?"

Xiao Yan was about to speak when he said, "It's just a..."

"Big Brother is just ahead!"

How long has it been? The same group of people has already pulled over another person. This time, the person who was pulled over looks even older, with wrinkles on his face and a full beard.

The man pointed at Nalan Yanran and questioned, "Why is it you again, you wild girl?"

Nalan Yanran put her hands on her hips: "Hmph! Who told them to bully me?"

Enraged, the man then turned to Xiao Yan on the other side: "A wild girl and a wild boy, since that's the case, don't blame me for bullying the weak!"

The man rolled up his sleeves, ready to teach Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran a lesson. Nalan Yanran and Xiao Yan exchanged a glance and nodded to each other.

Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran simultaneously punched the middle-aged man in the eye socket.

"Ouch, ouch!" The middle-aged man cried out in pain, and when he put his hand down, he had a pair of black eyes.

"Hahaha, old man, consider these panda eyes a gift from me!" Xiao Yan laughed heartily.

Nalan Yanran smiled; she suddenly realized that this young man was quite to her liking.

"Uncle." Mu Zhan and the other teenagers quickly helped the middle-aged man up.

The middle-aged man angrily pushed away the people next to him: "You two have really pissed me off!"

Red fighting spirit suddenly emerged from the middle-aged man's hand, and he stood up to attack Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran.

Nalan Yanran hadn't expected this middle-aged man to unleash his fighting spirit so directly! Seeing the situation was bad, Xiao Yan immediately shielded Nalan Yanran behind him.

whoosh-

Suddenly, a figure in white robes appeared in front of Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran, deflecting the middle-aged man's attack.

The next instant, two figures in black robes appeared in front of Xiao Yan.

The middle-aged man in white robes smiled faintly and said, "Miss was just joking with everyone. Please forgive her. Our young lady is known for her playful jokes, so please bear with her..."

Just as the middle-aged man in white robes was about to bow to everyone, Xiao Yan's voice rang out.

"Good! Uncle Feng, Uncle Lan, quickly beat that old man up! How dare he bully two kids like this!" Xiao Yan immediately pointed at the middle-aged man and shouted.

The middle-aged man in black robes, known as Uncle Feng and Uncle Lan, nodded: "I'll listen to the Third Young Master!"

They immediately knocked the middle-aged man to the ground and gave him a good beating.

The middle-aged man in white robes standing to the side was dumbfounded, but he ignored it and said to Nalan Yanran:

"Miss, didn't Master say we were having important guests today? Why are you causing trouble outside?"

Nalan Yanran suddenly realized: "Oh right, I forgot about that!"

Nalan Yanran immediately ran away.
