Chapter 22 Nalan Yanran's Shock!
Three days later, Xiao Ning took this batch of Xuanxue Spiritual Liquid from Xiao Yan.
Although the effect of Xuanxue Spiritual Liquid on him was also declining rapidly.
But now Xiao Ning had no other things to temper his body, so he could only make do with it.
The spiritual liquid was obtained, and the materials needed for the wild were also purchased. Xiao Ning was fully prepared for going out for training.
That night, Xiao Ning packed up everything and walked out of his room directly.
Before leaving, Xiao Ning came to Xiao Yu's room, quietly placed a gold coin card on her bedside, and resolutely left the Xiao family.
A moment later, outside Wutan City, Xiao Ning looked at the city gate behind him. After a long time, he sighed a little lonely, then clenched his fists tightly, and whispered as if to cheer himself up: "The world outside will definitely be more exciting..."
After speaking, Xiao Ning smiled, shook off some melancholy in his heart, took steps, and quickly disappeared into the night.
…………
Yunlan Sect, as one of the most powerful forces in the Jiama Empire, is directly located on a majestic mountain only more than ten miles away from the imperial capital. Because of the name of Yunlan Sect, this mountain is also called Yunlan Mountain.
Yunlan Mountain is steep, surrounded by cliffs on three sides, and there is only one road leading to the top of the mountain. It can be said to be a dangerous place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Moreover, there are disciples of Yunlan Sect patrolling all over the mountain. The whole mountain is like a small fortress.
Only two miles away from the foot of Yunlan Mountain, there are 50,000 cavalry stationed here by the empire. Although it is called guarding the capital, anyone can see that this is the ruler of the empire, guarding against this tiger near the capital. ……
The top of the mountain behind Yunlan Sect is surrounded by clouds and mist, like a fairyland.
On a protruding black rock at the edge of the cliff, a woman in a moon-white dress was forming a seal with her hands and practicing with her eyes closed. As she breathed in and out, a perfect cycle was formed. In each cycle, a faint green airflow would seep out from the air with rich energy around her. The airflow swirled around the woman and was continuously absorbed into her body, refining and storing it...
When the last wisp of green airflow was absorbed into the woman's body, she slowly opened her eyes, and a faint green light passed through her eyes. The green hair on her shoulders fluttered slightly without wind.
"Senior Sister Nalan, Master Nalan Su has come to Yunlan Sect. He told you to go see him."
Seeing that the woman had exited the state of cultivation, a maid who had been waiting here for a long time hurriedly said respectfully. "Father? What is he doing here?"
Hearing this, the woman frowned slightly, shook her head in doubt, stood up gracefully, and stood on the edge of the cliff. The breeze blowing in her face blew the moon-white dress tightly against the woman's delicate body, which looked very attractive.
Her eyes lazily swept under the bottomless cliff, and the woman's jade hand gently brushed the moon-white dress, and then turned and left this place where she practiced exclusively.
...
In the spacious and bright hall, a middle-aged man with a slightly gloomy face was holding a teacup, and his palm on the table was constantly knocking on the table in a bit of annoyance.
Nalan Su was very annoyed now, because he was almost chased to Yunlan Sect by his father Nalan Jie with a stick.
He didn't expect that he had only led his troops to the western part of the empire for a year, and his daring daughter dared to privately postpone the marriage that the old man had personally arranged.
Everyone in the family knew that Nalan Jie was very concerned about his reputation, and Nalan Yanran's current behavior would undoubtedly make others say that his Nalan family saw that the power of the Xiao family had weakened and was unwilling to marry them, so they broke their promise.
Such gossip made Nalan Jie furious at home every day. If he had not been unable to move, he would have dragged his dying body to climb Yunlan Mountain.
To be honest, Nalan Su did not approve of the marriage between the Nalan family and the Xiao family. After all, Xiao Yan was almost synonymous with waste at the time. Nalan Su was really unwilling to let his daughter, who was both of the best appearance and cultivation talent, marry a waste.
However, the past was the past. According to the information he received, the kid from the Xiao family not only got rid of the title of waste, but also showed a cultivation speed that was almost more terrifying than when he was at his peak as a child.
At this time, the potential shown by Xiao Yan was undoubtedly enough to attract Nalan Su's attention. However, Nalan Yanran's private actions turned the relationship between the two sides into a cold deadlock, which made Nalan Su extremely embarrassed.
If this relationship continues, Nalan Su might lose a son-in-law with unlimited potential, and even make the entire Xiao family hostile to the Nalan family.
Especially the recent news from Wutan City made Nalan Su completely unable to sit still.
He has the strength to kill a great Dou Shi at the age of sixteen!
The Xiao family has produced a monster!
If this is true, the kid will grow up to be a Dou Huang at least.
As long as he thinks that a strong man who has the opportunity to become a Dou Huang in the future may be hostile to the Nalan family, Nalan Su is so angry that he jumps up and down in fear.
"This girl is getting bolder and bolder..."
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Nalan Su suddenly stomped the teacup in his hand heavily on the table, splashing the tea all over the table, startling the maidservant who was waiting on the side. She hurriedly and carefully changed another cup.
...
"Father, why didn't you inform Yan'er when you came to Yunlan Sect?"
Just when Nalan Su was angry, a woman's crisp voice suddenly sounded in the hall. A moon-white figure slowly walked out from the gauze curtain and smiled sweetly at Nalan Su.
"Hmph, do you still have me as your father in your eyes? I thought you didn't know what the Nalan family was after you became Yun Yun's disciple!"
Looking at this daughter who was becoming more and more beautiful, Nalan Su's anger subsided a little and snorted coldly.
Seeing Nalan Su's unhappy face, Nalan Yanran shook her head helplessly, waved to the maid next to her, and sent her out.
"Father, I haven't seen you for more than a year, and you scolded Yan'er as soon as you came. Next time I go back, I must tell my mother!"
After the maid left, Nalan Yanran immediately wrinkled her nose, sat down next to Nalan Su, and snorted like a spoiled child.
"Go back? You dare to go back?"
Hearing this, Nalan Su's mouth cracked: "If you dare to go back, see if your grandfather dares to break your legs!"
Pouting, Nalan Yanran, who knew everything, naturally understood what Nalan Su meant.
"You should know the purpose of my coming here, right?"
Taking a sip of tea, Nalan Su said with a gloomy face.
"Is it because of my regret for the engagement?"
Playing with a strand of black hair with her slender hands, Nalan Yanran said lightly.
Seeing Nalan Yanran's calm appearance, Nalan Su was immediately amused. He slammed his palm on the table and said angrily: "The marriage was personally agreed by your grandfather. Who asked you to cancel it?"
"That's my marriage. I don't want to marry anyone according to your wishes. I will make my own decisions! I don't care who agreed. I only know that if it is agreed, it is me who will marry, not Grandpa!"
When it comes to this, Nalan Yanran is also unhappy. She is somewhat independent and hates to follow the route specified by others for her major events, even if this person is her elder.
"Don't think I don't know. You just think that Xiao Yan is a waste and not worthy of you, right? But now his potential is not lower than yours." Nalan Su snorted coldly.
"Father, what do you mean by this?" Nalan Yanran said in confusion.
In the past year, she has devoted most of her energy to cultivation, so she doesn't know the current situation of the Xiao family.
Afterwards, Nalan Su told the recent events of the Xiao family with a gloomy face.
Hearing this, Nalan Yanran frowned slightly, and the stubborn boy of the past appeared in her mind. She said with a slightly surprised look: "I didn't expect that he could actually get rid of the title of waste. This really surprised me."
"Surprising? What else surprised you more?"
Seeing Nalan Yanran's performance, Nalan Su felt unhappy for a while, and then he told her what happened in Wutan City recently.
"What?"
"Sixteen years old killed a great fighting master!?"
Nalan Yanran widened her eyes, and there was a look of disbelief in her eyes.
