Xiao Zhan's heart sank.
It seems that this expert with a very high level of cultivation is not willing to help get involved in the Xiao family.
"I said Patriarch Xiao, for no reason, why should the Taoist priest help you?"
Xiaotian interjected.
Xiao Zhan squeezed out a trace of bitterness from the corner of his mouth. Yes, he was really powerful, but why would he risk helping someone who had nothing to do with him.
"Junior is too reckless, Mr. Haihan."
Xiao Zhan apologetically handed over to Cao Yi.
Cao Yi waved his hand and said: "Chief Xiao's words are serious. Pindao just said that Yao Lao has many very strong enemies. Before he recovers, Yao Lao will definitely act carefully. In a short time, the Xiao family will not be in any danger. Xiao The clan leader doesn’t need to worry too much.”
In the original work, what happened to the Xiao family was caused by Yunshan, the previous head of the Yunlan Sect, who colluded with the Soul Palace after the three-year contract expired. In other words, there are still three years until it happens.
Xiao Zhan nodded in agreement, still feeling a little uneasy.
After all, it is about the survival of the Xiao family.
"I heard that your son has an engagement with the Nalan family?"
Cao Yi asked casually.
"Is there any problem?"
Xiao Zhan asked subconsciously.
Cao Yi waved his hand again, and a picture appeared.
A group of people were riding on magic beasts, led by a man and a woman. The man was a bad old man, and the woman looked like a teenager and was very pretty.
This group of people all have one thing in common, a silver sword in the shape of a cloud on their sleeves.
"He is from Yunlan Sect"
Xiao Zhan recognized the logo of the Yunlan Sect, the largest sect in the Jiama Empire.
"Clan Chief Xiao doesn't remember this girl?"
Cao Yi asked with a smile.
Xiao Zhan heard this, looked at it carefully for a while, and finally shook his head, "I don't recognize it."
"This girl's name is Nalan Yanran"
Cao Yi gave the answer.
Xiao Zhan was stunned and said in surprise: "What, she is Uncle Nalan's granddaughter, Nalan Yanran, what are she and the people from the Yunlan Sect doing in Wutan City?"
"break off an engagement"
Cao Yi gave the answer again.
"break off an engagement!"
Xiao Zhan's expression turned very ugly.
In Dou Qi Continent, breaking off an engagement is a great humiliation for a family.
"According to their pace, they will arrive at Wutan City in one day at the latest."
Cao Yi continued.
Xiao Zhan immediately held up his hands and said, "Junior, I'll take my leave first."
"Don't worry, now that you're here, Pindao won't let you go back empty-handed."
Cao Yi said with a smile.
Xiao Zhan said embarrassedly: "This junior brought nothing, how can he accept a gift from his senior?"
In fact, it's not that he didn't want to take it with him. After seeing the power of King Ginseng last time, he knew that taking out the shabby things in his house would only make him look embarrassed.
"As long as it comes from your heart, it doesn't matter whether it's a gift or not."
After Cao Yi finished speaking, he passed a third of the secret word Dou into Xiao Zhan's mind.
"Night"
Xiao Zhan was stunned as soon as he said the word.
The 'fighting skills' taught by this senior surpassed any kind of fighting skills he had ever seen, and were definitely 'heaven-level' fighting skills.
"There is also a part of Pindao's power blessing inside, which can help you understand quickly."
Cao Yi said again.
Xiao Zhan came to his senses and said in a hoarse voice with excitement: "Sir's gift is too heavy. This junior really can't bear it."
"There is nothing I can't bear, nothing I can't bear. We are destined to meet each other, and we are here today."
After Cao Yi finished speaking, he waved his hand and sent Xiao Zhan out directly.
For Xiao Zhan, it was just a moment, and the surrounding scene quickly reversed.
When I regained consciousness, I was already hundreds of miles away from the Taoist temple.
"This method, this method..."
Xiao Zhan no longer knew how to describe it.
Swish... the guards of the Xiao family and a group of magical beasts appeared around.
"What happened?"
"Why are you here suddenly?"
…
The guards of the Xiao family were in a mess.
Xiao Zhan coughed majestically.
The sound was not loud, but the scene immediately became quiet.
The Xiao family walked to their mounts, climbed up easily, and said with great enthusiasm: "Go back."
Dozens of guards jumped on the backs of the monsters and headed towards Wutan City.
In the Taoist temple.
"What's so great about this Xiao Zhan that he deserves to be valued so highly by the Taoist Priest?"
Xiaotian asked very puzzledly.
"This person is not the best, but overall, there are few people in the world who can compare with him. He is also the father of the protagonist. No one is more suitable than him to help Pindao develop his Taoist career."
Cao Yi explained.
"The best overall?"
Xiao Tian tilted his head, his face still puzzled.
There is no way, its intelligence does not support it to think about such complicated things.
Cao Yi looked solemn and said: "There are so many problems, have you finished helping me?"
"Didn't you, Taoist Priest, ask me to help you make tea?"
Xiaotian felt aggrieved.
"Is it still my fault?"
Cao Yi pretended to have a bad look on his face.
Xiaotian immediately became discouraged and ran decisively to the Lihuo God Furnace and got busy.
In a flash, it was the next day.
Cao Yi had nothing to do, and consciousness came to the Xiao family.
Worthy of being one of the three giants in Wutan City, the Xiao family has a high standard of material living.
I watched it for a while, but it was boring.
Consciousness shifts to a yard.
Xiao Zhan, who got a huge benefit yesterday, is practicing Dou Zi Mi in his yard.
Although the cultivation is not very good, it is more than enough to deal with the strong masters.
Not long after, a servant came to report that Ge Ye from the Yunlan Sect and Nalan Yanran from the Nalan family had arrived.
Xiao Zhan sent someone to notify Xiao Yan while walking towards the living room.
Cao Yi followed up consciously.
Arrive at the living room which is not very ornately decorated.
Nalan Yanran saw several elders of the Xiao family who were not very good at greeting Ge Ye attentively.
They stopped when Xiao Zhan entered.
"Mr. Kuzuye, I'm here to welcome you. I apologize for any delay in greeting you."
Although he knew the other party's intention, Xiao Zhan was still very thorough in his etiquette.
Mr. Ge Ye stood up, cupped his hands towards Xiao Zhan, and said with a smile: "Chief Xiao, the main reason for coming to your family this time is to ask for something!"
coming!
Xiao Zhan sighed in his heart, but his face remained kind, "Mr. Ge Ye, please tell me if you have anything to say. If it's within our ability, the Xiao family will not refuse."
"Chief Xiao, do you know her?" Ge Ye pointed at the girl beside him and asked with a smile.
"Uh... I'm sorry for Xiao Zhan's blindness, but this lady..."
Xiao Zhan pretended not to know him.
"Her name is Nalan Yanran"
Ge Ye said Nalan Yanran's name.
"Uncle Nalan's granddaughter"
Xiao Zhan pretended to be surprised.
"We came here presumptuously. Uncle Xiao, you won't blame us, right?"
Nalan Yanran smiled sweetly.
"It turns out you are Nalan's niece. My uncle is blind and did not recognize you. I heard that you have been accepted by Master Yun Yun. Congratulations."
Xiao Zhan continued to cooperate.
Nalan Yanran smiled lightly and said very modestly: "It's just good luck."
"Clan Chief Xiao, I'm here because of Yanran and your son's affairs. This matter was personally ordered by the sect leader."
Kuzu Ye interrupted the conversation between the two.
Xiao Zhan's expression turned dull and said, "Break off the engagement, right?"
"Uh, yes," Ge Ye reorganized his words and said, "Clan Chief Xiao, you also know that the Yunlan Sect has a strict family tradition."
"No need to say more, Xiao agreed."
Xiao Zhan interrupted Ge Ye.
Kuzu Ye was stunned and was about to take out the apology he had prepared in advance.
Xiao Zhan's voice sounded again: "It's just that you and I divorced Nalan Yanran."
