Chapter 112 Breaking Off the Engagement!
After hearing Yun Yun's praise, Zi Yan nodded slightly but did not answer.
Zi Yan had seen many low-level fighting emperors like this in Canaan Academy. Yun Yun, who did not have earth-level fighting skills, might not be her opponent.
Seeing that Zi Yan did not reply to her words, Yun Yun did not show any dissatisfaction. She had been the sect leader for only a year or two, and her ability to control her expression was still very good.
On the other hand, Nalan Yanran, who was behind Zi Yan, felt a little angry when she saw her teacher being left out. "The teacher has already said hello to her, why doesn't this person say a word back?"
However, thinking of Zi Yan's cultivation at the peak of Dou Wang, she still didn't express her thoughts.
After the guests and hosts took their seats, the situation suddenly became awkward.
The Xiao family members didn’t know what the Yun Lan Sect’s purpose was, and the people from the Yun Lan Sect were a little embarrassed to speak.
In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, several elders chatted a few more words with the deacons of Yunlan Sect.
When several people from the Yunlan Sect entered the hall, Xiao Yan cast his eyes vaguely on the girl behind Yun Yun.
This girl is similar in age to Xiao Yan, so Xiao Yan is a little surprised. Her appearance is actually a bit more beautiful than Xiao Mei. In this family, I am afraid that there is only the elegant little medical fairy girl. can be compared with it.
There are three gold star badges painted on the pretty girl's chest. From this, it can be seen that this girl is a three-star fighter.
Touching his chin, Xiao Yan murmured in his heart, "This girl should be the young master of the Yunlan Sect, Nalan Yanran. Her talent is pretty good, but I don't know what her personality is like."
At this time, Xiao Yan did not expect that his engagement would be annulled. After all, now that the Xiao family has Xiao Ling as a backer, the family's power has developed rapidly, his talent has also been restored, and his future is bright.
Nalan Yanran, who was sitting next to Yun Yun, saw that the deacon of Yunlan Sect had not mentioned the matter of breaking off the engagement yet, so she tugged at the corner of Yun Yun's clothes.
Turning her head and glancing at Nalan Yanran, Yun Yun knew that this girl couldn't wait any longer. She nodded slightly to Nalan Yanran and winked at an old man in white robes beside her.
Feeling the sect master's urging, the deacon nodded, knowing that it was time to get down to business.
"Ahem." The old man in white robe coughed lightly, stood up, cupped his hands towards Xiao Zhan, and said with a smile: "Chief Xiao, I came to your family this time mainly because I have something to ask for!"
Xiao Zhan frowned, sensing something was wrong, and said calmly: "Haha, Mr. Ge Ye, please tell me if you have something to do. If it's within our ability, the Xiao family won't refuse."
"Haha, Chief Xiao, do you know her?" Ge Ye smiled slightly, pointed at Nalan Yanran beside Yun Yun and asked with a smile.
His eyes turned to the direction of Ge Ye's finger, and a faint smile appeared on Xiao Zhan's face, "I think this girl must be Nalan's niece. I haven't seen her for many years. I almost don't recognize my uncle. Recently, the Xiao family I have a lot to deal with when I move back to the imperial capital. Don’t blame me for not bringing a gift to visit you. "
Xiao Zhan naturally recognized Nalan Yanran. Although he had never met her in person, the Nalan family also sent Nalan Yanran's portrait to Xiao Zhan.
"Uncle Xiao, my niece has never come to see her, so she should apologize, but how can I dare to blame Uncle Xiao." Nalan Yanran said with a sweet smile.
The two chatted for a while. Nalan Yanran couldn't resist Xiao Zhan's enthusiasm. She took a deep breath and looked at Xiao Zhan firmly, "Uncle Xiao, Yanran came to Xiao's house this time because she wanted to... and... Xiao Yan broke off the engagement."
As soon as these words came out, the hall suddenly fell into silence.
Everyone present was stunned. Not only the younger generation who were listening looked shocked, but even the three elders and Xiao Zhan looked confused.
Ever since the Xiao family moved back to the imperial capital, they have maintained a good relationship with the Nalan family.
Especially after Xiao Yan's cultivation talent recovered, Nalan Yanran's father Nalan Su came to the Xiao family from time to time to discuss their future marriage with Xiao Zhan.
Both parents are extremely optimistic about this marriage and are quite satisfied with each other's children.
She originally thought that Nalan Yanran came to visit the Xiao family to develop a relationship with Xiao Yan, but she did not expect that the reality was exactly the opposite. She came to cancel the marriage.
After being slightly stunned, Xiao Zhan looked at Nalan Yanran with doubtful eyes, "Niece Nalan, are you kidding your uncle? I met and talked with your father before and planned to arrange for you to have contact with Xiao Yan. , I have no plans to break off the engagement.”
Facing Xiao Zhan's inquiry, Nalan Yanran's eyes did not flinch at all, and she said resolutely: "This is my own business and has nothing to do with the Nalan family."
Good guy, no wonder Nalan Yanran came to visit using the identity of the young master of the Yunlan Sect. It turned out that she had made her own decision without telling the Nalan family.
Yun Yun on the side saw Nalan Yanran speak, stood up, and added: "Clan Chief Xiao, the Yunlan Sect has strict sect rules. Every successor of the sect leader is not allowed to have emotional entanglements before he officially becomes the sect leader. Yanran is gifted However, before that, I asked Yanran and learned that she has a marriage with the Xiao family. Therefore, I hope that the Xiao family leader can terminate this engagement. Generous compensation will be given.”
The atmosphere in the hall was a bit solemn. If Nalan Yanran could still be motivated, Yun Yun, as the leader of the Yunlan Sect, would naturally not be joking.
"Crack!" The jade cup in Xiao Zhan's hand suddenly turned into a puff of powder.
Seeing this scene, Zi Yan's eyes lit up, "Xiao Ling told me before that the head of the Xiao family likes to pinch tea cups the most. I didn't quite understand it before, but now I see it with my own eyes."
At this time, Xiao Yan's face became very ugly. Now that his cultivation talent has been restored, he has no rivals among his peers, and his family is also thriving. This Nalan Yanran actually wants to come to the door to cancel the engagement.
If there is indeed such a rule, why can't Nalan Yanran solve it privately if she can't fulfill the engagement? She must bring the leader of the Yunlan Sect and come to the Xiao family to cancel the engagement with great fanfare.
This is looking down on the Xiao family and looking down on him, Xiao Yan. It's a complete humiliation!
In fact, Yun Yun is also helpless. Her apprentice doesn't want to fulfill the engagement, and the Nalan family will definitely not agree to let Nalan Yanran cancel this marriage. Now, they had no choice but to resort to this last resort, which was to bring Nalan Yanran here directly to cancel the marriage. Moreover, they had to make some noise, otherwise the Nalan family would not admit to canceling the engagement with the Xiao family.
