Douluo: Starting from the Spirit of Time Worm

Xiao Yan sat cross-legged, making strange mudras with his hands, his chest rose and fell, his breathing cycle was perfect, and the white air flow penetrated his body along his mouth and nose, warming his whole body.

He opened his eyes and frowned. There was no problem in gathering the energy of heaven and earth, purifying it, refining it, absorbing it and transforming it. These were all signs that his talent had not disappeared. His cultivation speed was even faster than before due to the natural growth of his soul. A few points faster.

However, the battle energy that has been absorbed and transformed cannot be stored in the body for a long time, and will disappear strangely, as if it has been absorbed by something.

"Alas..." Xiao Yan sighed, looking helpless and confused.

"Third Young Master, the patriarch invites you to go to the hall. There are distinguished guests coming." Butler Mo's old voice came from outside the door.

Xiao Yan is the third eldest brother in the family, with the eldest brother Xiao Ding and the second brother Xiao Li. However, his two elder brothers have gone out to practice and only come home occasionally at the end of the year.

"Oh." After Xiao Yan changed his clothes, he followed the old man in green shirt waiting outside the house and walked towards the hall.

Looking at the young master who smiled and nodded to him, a trace of regret flashed in Butler Mo's old, cloudy eyes.

Xiao Zhan had already told him about the distinguished guest coming last night, but when Xiao Yan came to the hall, he was still slightly surprised. This distinguished guest was really "expensive"!

I saw a lot of people in the spacious hall. In addition to the patriarch Xiao Zhan who was sitting in the chair, there were also three elders, as well as some elders in the family who were not weak in strength and voice, as well as some with outstanding talents and outstanding performance. Young people are also here...including Xiao Meng and Xun'er.

Who can make the Xiao family welcome him so solemnly, who is visiting today? Why did my father specifically mention it to me last night? Does it have anything to do with me? A trace of doubt flashed in Xiao Yan's heart.

When he looked at the two pearls in the family, Xun'er also looked over with a smile.

Xiao Meng's expression was a little tangled, sometimes cold and indifferent, sometimes fierce, and sometimes showing a happy and sweet smile...

Xiao Yan was already used to her occasional facial expressions.

Many times, Xiao Meng would give people an inexplicable feeling.

He turned his attention to the visiting distinguished guests again. When he saw the small-eyed, energetic old man with the light moon star symbol on his chest, his heart trembled. This was actually a seven-star master, who was smaller than his father. Zhan is still two stars higher.

Then Xiao Yan saw the old man wearing moon-white robes with the strength of a seven-star fighter, and another young man with the strength of a five-star fighter all looking towards him, showing somewhat similar smiles.

Monk Xiao Yan Erzhang was confused. What were they looking at him for? And the smile on his face... seems a little weird.

"Father, three elders." Xiao Yan stepped forward and saluted respectfully to the four senior people.

"Yan'er, here you go, sit down." Xiao Zhan nodded.

He smiled and nodded, ignoring the disdainful looks from the three elders, but found that the hall was already full of people, and there was no seat for him.

He couldn't help clenching his fists, his nails digging into his flesh, feeling a sense of suffocation. Ha...the three immortals...helplessly showed self-deprecating smiles.

The tribesmen around him couldn't help but laugh when they saw Xiao Yan standing awkwardly.

Xiao Meng, who had been waiting for this moment for a long time, immediately rushed forward and took Xiao Yan's arm:

"Hehe, Master Xiao Yan, your place is here. I was originally your maid."

Xiao Meng couldn't help but pull Xiao Yan to his seat and sit down, while she stood behind him respectfully.

This made Xun'er, who was about to move his body to the side of the seat and let Xiao Yan sit next to him, pause in his movements, and the sound of grinding his teeth came from his mouth.

Xiao Meng's actions caused the young people in the hall to stop laughing at Xiao Yan, and instead turned into envy, jealousy, and resentment.

Why wasn't he the one who picked up Xiao Meng who was living on the street?

Xiao Yan looked moved. He felt that everyone in the hall was sitting, and it seemed a bit uncomfortable for Xiao Meng to stand alone, so he moved his butt to one side:

"Sit next to me."

"Okay, Master." Xiao Meng sat obediently next to Xiao Yan, with her head lowered and her face slightly red.

Kara... The armrests of the chair where Xun'er was sitting made a sound of breaking. She clasped the armrests tightly with her fingers, and veins popped out on the back of her hands.

Looking towards Xiao Meng, he found that the other person had his head lowered and his eyes were looking at him intentionally or unintentionally.

The two people's eyes intertwined and collided in mid-air, and sparks seemed to be generated.

Xun'er felt that there was a faint smile on the other person's face, as if he was provoking...

Golden flames danced in her eyes, and Xiao Yan inexplicably felt that the surrounding air seemed to become a little hot.

But he felt a chill rush from his back to his forehead. So much so that distinguished guests and ridicule were all thrown out the window.

He turned his neck mechanically and looked at Xun'er aside. When he saw the unsmiling look on the other person's face, the corner of his mouth twitched.

Ge Ye and the young man beside Nalan Yanran were stunned. They communicated with each other with their eyes:

"There's no such person in the original book, right?"

"Probably not. She is frantically grabbing Xiao Xun'er's part... Could it be 'our' arrangement?"

"Is this one of 'us'?"

"I don't know...maybe, maybe not."

"I seriously doubt the entity's mental state!"

Nalan Yanran pulled Ge Ye's sleeve, and the latter nodded, showing a slightly helpless smile.

He coughed a few times and started chatting with the elders of the Xiao family, but every time he wanted to say something, he swallowed it back and acted as if he wanted to say something but stopped.

Xiao Yan looked at their expressions, listened carefully for a while, and felt a little bored.

"Brother Xiao Yan, do you know their identities?" Xun'er beside him put down the ancient book in her hand and asked softly.

Xiao Meng also leaned her head over here, looking curious.

This made Xiao Xun'er regain a little sense of superiority.

"You know?" Xiao Yan asked in confusion.

"Look at the cloud silver sword on the cuffs of their clothes. That is the symbol of the Yunlan Sect." Xiao Xun'er said lightly.

"Yunlan Sect?" Xiao Yan and Xiao Meng showed surprise on their faces.

Xiao Yan also knew some of the situation in this world through books. Wutan City, where the Xiao family is located, belongs to the Jiama Empire. Because it is backed by the Warcraft Mountains, it ranks among the big cities of the empire, but it is only at the bottom.

The Xiao family is considered the hegemon of Wutan City, while the Yunlan Sect is one of the most powerful forces in the entire Jiama Empire. Even the royal family is afraid of it.

"What are they doing here?"

"Brother Xiao Yan, do you still remember your fiancée?" Xun'er smiled.

"Nalan Yanran? The granddaughter of Marshal Lionheart Nalan Jie?" Xiao Yan's body stiffened slightly, and he glanced at the noble girl in front of him, his expression seemed a little unnatural.

"Yes... Grandpa and Nalan Jie were close friends at the beginning. You were born at the same time, so this marriage was decided. Nalan Jie attaches great importance to promises. Even if the relationship between the two families faded after Grandpa's death and the Xiao family declined, he never regretted it.

"But Nalan Yanran became a disciple of Yun Yun, the leader of the Yunlan Sect, five years ago, so Nalan Jie may not be able to make decisions for her. So, Brother Xiao Yan, what do you think she is doing here? "Xun'er said with a smile.

Then, Xiao Yan heard a series of grinding sounds... Xiao Meng's expression became extremely ferocious.

Xiao Yan was frightened by her, and even the anger that he had guessed Nalan Yanran's purpose was frightened away.

"Kill her, kill her... I'll kill her..."

"Xiao Meng, calm down, calm down..." Xiao Yan pulled Xiao Meng with a smile, fearing that she would really rush over and fight with Nalan Yanran.

Xiao Xun'er looked at Xiao Meng with a little more recognition... The other party didn't look fake.

As long as she was really good to Xiao Yan, Brother is good, so it’s okay to have some little secrets... Of course, it would be better if she didn’t compete with her for brother Xiao Yan.

After finally pacifying Xiao Meng, Xiao Yan felt angry and deeply exhausted... He has become a waste after all...

If his talent is still there, without the three years of wasting time, he would be a high-level fighter, or even a fighter master...

Then even the Yunlan Sect would probably not support Nalan Yanran’s current actions.

“Brother Xiao Yan, if she really acts like this, Xun’er believes that she will regret her actions today in the future!” Xun’er quietly placed her hand on Xiao Yan’s left hand, which was clenched on his thigh.

“Yes, Master Xiao Yan, she will definitely regret it, Xiao Meng believes you! "Xiao Meng held his other hand.

Warmth flowed in Xiao Yan's heart... Even if it was just to not let them down, I would definitely stand up again!

He looked at the three people from Yunlan Sect with a cold look, and there seemed to be anger burning in his eyes.

Xiao Meng and Xun'er also looked at each other with the same eyes. At this moment, the attitudes of the three people were surprisingly consistent.

Although Nalan Yanran repeatedly signaled, Ge Ye repeatedly did not speak. The young man on the side seemed to be unable to bear it, so he interrupted and said:

"Yanran is here to cancel the engagement this time!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was silent.

The guess was confirmed, and Xiao Yan stood up directly: "What did you say? Say it again!"

The young man didn't seem to think there was anything wrong at all. He also stood up and stared at Xiao Yan: "I said...Yanran is here to cancel the engagement this time. "

Seeing the young man being so straightforward, Nalan Yanran opened her mouth, with a little helplessness on her face... She wanted to be more tactful.

But in order to avoid making the conflict more intense, she stood up and pushed the young man back.

She showed an awkward smile to Xiao Zhan.

Ge Ye had to speak at this moment, and said with some apology: "Chief Xiao, I know this is also a bit inappropriate, but this time it was the master who spoke directly, and I had to make this trip...

"I hope you can cancel the engagement with Yanran. The master knows that this request is a bit impolite, so he specially prepared something and asked me to bring it as an apology..."

Ge Ye reached out and wiped the ring on his finger, and took out a jade box that was green all over.

After opening it, the fragrance of medicine filled the air, making people feel refreshed.

"Juqi San!"

Although she prepared a generous gift, Nalan Yanran still felt a little embarrassed, with an apologetic smile on her face.

The young man next to him didn't think so... The woman broke off the engagement and gave an apology, what kind-hearted lady is she...

When he traveled through that era, it was good enough not to swallow the betrothal gift, let alone give an apology. There were many cases of breaking off an engagement because of the betrothal gift, and arguing endlessly, and even going to court.

The two had no feelings for each other, and it was not suitable, so it was not suitable... But she could still give an apology... This was considered a moral benchmark.

However... In the minds of people in this era, dignity seems to be more important.
