Fights Break Sphere: The Fire Rekindles

Chapter 56 Chance Encounter
While the two were talking, a fair hand reached out from behind the curtain and a graceful figure slowly walked out of the carriage.

"Nalan Yanran!" Xiao Yan looked at this familiar figure, a complex expression emerged on his face, but it disappeared in a flash.

Although it has only been three months since Nalan Yanran came to the Xiao family to break off the engagement, Nalan Yanran is now very different from when she first went to the Xiao family. Nalan Yanran was so arrogant and domineering at the beginning, but now she looks haggard, with a frown on her face, a pitiful look, and her eyes are slightly red and swollen.

"I didn't expect that what happened back then would have such a big impact on her!" Xiao Yan sighed in his heart.

Bad things happened to Nalan Yanran one after another after she went to the Xiao family. First, she was defeated by Xiao Yan, and then she was forced to write an agreement to break off the engagement. After returning to the family, she wanted to cry to her grandfather, but when her grandfather learned about Nalan Yanran's scandal, he was so angry that his poison suddenly broke out, and then he fell ill, causing the whole family to fall into panic.

When the people of the Nalan family saw that Nalan Yanran had caused their old man Nalan Jie to fall ill and put the family into crisis, how could they be willing to give her a good face?

The Nalan family sought medical treatment everywhere and spent a lot of money to hire many senior alchemists to help Nalan Jie cure his illness, but unfortunately the effect was minimal, so they had to let Nalan Yanran go to Yunlan Sect to invite Dan King Gu He to come.

But when Nalan Yanran returned to the sect to seek help, only her teacher Yun Yun cared about her, and everyone else laughed at her behind her back. It turned out that those who flattered Nalan Yanran because of her status and position also began to secretly mock her, saying that she was a waste who couldn't even beat a useless young master from a small family, and was a disgrace to the sect.

Nalan Yanran was just like Xiao Yan in the original novel. When she fell into her lowest point, all those who had originally complimented and praised her turned to mockery and sarcasm.

Nalan Yanran finally invited Gu He to treat Nalan Jie, but Gu He failed to cure Nalan Jie and told Nalan Yanran that only the strange fire could remove the poison from Nalan Jie's body. However, this method was almost the same as not saying anything. The rarity of the strange fire was self-evident, and no one in the entire Jiama Empire had ever heard of possessing it.

It seems that because of Nalan Jie's death, the Nalan family will become like the Xiao family in the past. Because of Xiao Lin's death, they will completely lose the qualifications to stay in the imperial capital and gradually become a third-rate force.

These things, one after another, hit Nalan Yanran like mountains, making it hard for her to breathe. Her originally proud character was gradually wiped out, and her body began to become thinner and thinner.

"Damn it! I'm not going to be like this for a while, don't bully a poor girl!" Although Nalan Yanran was physically exhausted, Xiao Yan could sense a hint of determination in her eyes. Xiao Yan thought to himself. How high a person's ultimate achievement is depends not only on his talent, but more importantly, on his determination.

Nalan Yanran's soul perception was also very strong. She seemed to realize that someone was watching her. She suddenly raised her head and looked directly at Xiao Yan.

The two looked at each other, and Xiao Yan looked away awkwardly. He didn't expect that they would meet in this place. Although Xiao Yan's appearance has changed a lot now, the eyes are the windows to the soul. What if he was recognized by Nalan Yanran, wouldn't that be very embarrassing?

After all, Xiao Yan has brought a lot of trouble to the Nalan family. If he is discovered, he will be torn to pieces alive.

Although Xiao Yan's gaze shifted away, Nalan Yanran's eagle-like sharp eyes never left Xiao Yan.

Nalan Yanran's strange behavior attracted the attention of Liu Ling who was standing beside him. Today, he invited Nalan Yanran to witness him becoming a second-grade alchemist. Although Nalan Yanran was completely focused on Nalan Jie, she naturally didn't want to go. However, after Liu Ling's soft and hard persuasion, she still agreed to accompany him to the Alchemist Guild.

Liu Ling told Nalan Yanran that the Alchemist Guild had gathered so many alchemists, so someone must know who possessed the Strange Fire. And President Fa Ma was also in the Alchemist Guild. With his knowledge, the probability of knowing who possessed the Strange Fire was higher. But as soon as Nalan Yanran came to the Alchemist Guild, she kept staring at a young man, which made Liu Ling feel a little jealous, as if she had been filled with vinegar. Nalan Yanran needed help and care right now, and this was also the best time to capture Nalan Yanran. After all, a wounded woman is always the easiest to open her heart.

Liu Ling asked, "Yanran, do you know that person?"

"I don't know him, I just feel he is somewhat familiar!" Nalan Yanran shook her head and looked away.

"Greetings, Mr. Vice President!" The two walked up to Chemir and bowed respectfully.

"I didn't expect that Brother Liu has reached the level of a second-grade alchemist!" Yaoyue said with a smile.

"Isn't the little princess here to take the test as well?" Liu Ling said with a faint smile.

"That's right, today I will also become a second-grade alchemist!" Yaoyue said proudly.

"Let me introduce someone to you. His name is Nie Feng. Among the people I know, he is the only one whose talent in alchemy is similar to yours. Moreover, he is specially taken care of by President Fa Ma! Even President Fa Ma appreciates the pills he refines!" Yaoyue walked to Xiao Yan and introduced playfully.

"He can actually get the praise of President Fa Ma. It seems that Mr. Nie Feng is not simple! Why don't we have a competition after the assessment is over?" Liu Ling heard the little princess praising Xiao Yan and learned that Xiao Yan could actually be valued by Fa Ma. In addition, Nalan Yanran paid great attention to Xiao Yan just now, so she was very angry and clenched the folding fan in her hand tighter.

"I'm just a first-grade alchemist. How can I compare to you? You are the disciple of Elder Dan Wang!" Xiao Yan rejected indifferently.

Hearing Xiao Yan's voice, Nalan Yanran looked at Xiao Yan again with an eagle-like sharp gaze. Because he was too familiar with this voice. In the past three months, Xiao Yan's figure always appeared in Nalan Yanran's mind, the boy who was even more arrogant than her. His voice, his confident smile, his every move, can almost be said to be engraved in Nalan Yanran's bones.

Xiao Yan was like a nightmare, constantly torturing her and making her suffer. Nalan Yanran slowly walked to Xiao Yan and asked in a deep voice, "Your name is Nie Feng?"

Looking at Nalan Yanran's somewhat cold eyes, Xiao Yan no longer dodged his gaze and looked directly at Nalan Yanran, smiling and saying, "Yes! My name is Nie Feng!"

"Let's not just stand outside, let's go inside and talk!" Qi Mier said hurriedly when he saw that Nalan Yanran was somewhat hostile towards Xiao Yan.

When Nalan Yanran saw Vice President Qiemi interrupt, she temporarily put aside her doubts. After all, she came to the Alchemist Guild to ask for a favor.
