Chapter 8 The engagement was broken off, but not completely

 "Now, am I qualified?"

The whole place was silent, no one answered.

Everyone present was shocked and speechless by Xiao Xue's performance.

Xiao Xue wanted to have a considerable say in the matter of breaking off the engagement, so she naturally showed her hand.

Otherwise, she would definitely not be promoted to five stars in a row.

And just the talent she showed, even in the entire Jia Ma Empire, is absolutely top-notch!

The faces of everyone in the Xiao family were full of shock, while Ge Ye's face had a somewhat solemn expression.

On the side, Nalan Yanran looked at Xiao Xue and Xiao Yan with somewhat complicated emotions in her eyes.

Naturally, she had heard that among the two stars of the Xiao family back then, the elder brother had fallen to the third level of fighting spirit, while the younger sister had stopped at the ninth level of fighting spirit and had not made any progress in three years.

However, what is happening now is undoubtedly challenging everyone's perception.

The two stars of the Xiao family have really lost their talent?

Did the boy who was ridiculed by everyone really become the "trash" in the rumors?

Nalan Yanran couldn't help but have doubts in her heart, and her determination to break off the engagement also weakened.

Nalan Yanran had no feelings for Xiao Yan, so she went to the Xiao family to terminate the engagement after Xiao Yan lost his talent.

However, Nalan Yanran is a strong-willed person.

In the original work, Nalan Yanran fell in love with "Yan Xiao" not because of "Yan Xiao"'s advanced background or outstanding appearance.

Nalan Yanran likes "Yan Xiao" simply because he is an extremely talented young man.

But now, in Nalan Yanran's eyes, the ordinary young man on the side may have an unknown filter and become mysterious.

Xiao Xue didn't care about Nalan Yanran and the others, who were just thinking about something. She gently put down the tea cup, saluted to Ge Ye, and slowly said:

"Mr. Ge Ye, if my guess is correct, you and Miss Nalan should be here for my brother this time."

"After all, this matter is a private matter between my Xiao family and the Nalan family. It was decided through negotiation back then by the elders of the two families."

"So I would like to ask Mr. Ge Ye to leave this matter to Miss Nalan and my father to handle together."

"I believe that my father will also give Miss Nalan a satisfactory answer in accordance with the instructions of his elders."

Xiao Xue's words are so smooth and smooth.

As a daughter in her previous life, she naturally knows a little bit about words after being exposed to them for several years.

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that Xiao Xue’s words have a strong purpose.

However, what she said was so beautiful and comfortable that it made people feel at ease as soon as they heard it.

When people use this attitude to talk to others, as long as the other party is not too arbitrary and domineering, this opinion will be considered.

What's more, this is originally a private matter between the Nalan family and the Xiao family. If the Yunlan Sect intervenes too forcefully, it will be inappropriate after all.

Ge Ye touched his beard, thought for a moment, and agreed with Xiao Xue's words.

After all, no matter what the Xiao family does, they will never take action against Nalan Yanran.

After getting Ge Ye's nod, Xiao Xue smiled slightly and saluted Nalan Yanran slightly, "Miss Nalan, please."

"Three elders, would you please entertain these two distinguished guests." After saying the last words, Xiao Xue walked out of the meeting hall with Xiao Zhan, Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran who looked confused.

———

Half an hour later, several people left and returned.

"Yanran..." Ge Ye looked at the four of them hesitantly, wondering what happened during this period.

Nalan Yanran shook her head gently, signaling Ge Ye not to mention the breakup of the engagement again, and then turned to Xiao Yan and others:

"Sister Xiao Xue, Xiao Yan...are you really not going back to Yunlan Sect with me?"

Everyone in the Xiao family:???

Kuzu Ye:???

"No...no, I'm fine with my own cultivation..." Xiao Yan smiled awkwardly, obviously unable to resist the girl's enthusiasm.

Regarding the kindness shown by Nalan Yanran, Xiao Xue just shook her head slightly and said nothing.

Ge Ye was the first to come to his senses. If the talents of both Xiao family members could be restored, recruiting them into the Yunlan Sect would be a great achievement!

Even if Xiao Yan is still a waste, it doesn't matter. The Yunlan clan has a great business and can afford to support one person!

With the talent Xiao Xue has shown today, she may not be able to become a powerful Dou Huang warrior in the next few decades. This is definitely a good deal!

Ge Ye also cleared his throat and said to Xiao Zhan, "Ahem, Chief Xiao, let the two children follow us back to Yunlan Sect."

However, to everyone's surprise, both Xiao Xue and Xiao Yan expressed their refusal, while Nalan Yanran said that they would not take it unless they did it.

The other elders finally took it back unwillingly and sent their juniors to the Yunlan Sect.

Suddenly, all kinds of eyes fell on Xiao Yan and Xiao Xue, including envy and jealousy, admiration and respect, and the eyes of some elders who hated iron for not being able to make steel.

After all, in the Gama Empire, the Yunlan Sect is the largest holy land for cultivation, with countless monks clamoring to join it.

If Xiao Yan and Xiao Xue can join the Yunlan Sect, they will definitely bring many benefits to the family.

However, both of them had reasons to refuse, so naturally they did not agree to the other's solicitation.

Facing his "stubborn" children, Xiao Zhan could only smile bitterly, declined Nalan Yanran and Ge Ye's solicitation, and politely sent them out the door.

"Xiao Yan, we will meet at Yunlan Mountain in three years." Before leaving, Nalan Yanran turned back to Xiao Yan and said.

After Ge Ye and others left, Xiao Xue patted a jade box into Xiao Yan's hand, "Here, it's for you."

Don’t give up the Juqi Powder for free.

The marriage seems to have been called off, but it seems that it has not been called off.

———

Go back half an hour ago.

With Xiao Xue mediating between them, Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yan did not get angry like in the original work, and Nalan Yanran, who put on the filter, was not as aggressive as the original work.

After pointing out the pros and cons, the famous saying "Don't bully young people into poverty" was stillborn after all.

And the engagement between the two was not immediately voided.

After discussion, several people decided to renegotiate the engagement in three years.

By then, even if Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran have different personalities, the termination of the engagement will not damage the reputation of either party.

As for the question of Xiao Xue and Xiao Yan's cultivation, Xiao Xue used the excuse of "hiding their clumsiness" to get over it.

After all, the current strongest person in the Xiao family is no more than a great fighting master.

On the mainland, a genius who has not grown up is worthless.

Nalan Yanran couldn't help but feel horrified. From this point of view, the five hearts of the fighter shown by Xiao Xue were definitely not her full strength!

The Xiao family is so terrifying!

As for Xiao Yan——

"Oh, my brother likes to hide everything with his hands. In fact, he doesn't even breathe as a fighter now." Xiao Xue said.

Of course, she ignored Xiao Zhan's surprised look and Xiao Yan's somewhat constipated expression.

This is not a boast, Yao Lao is probably waking up soon. If Xiao Yan hires someone to fight on his behalf, the Great Dou Master will be in trouble, right?

After Nalan Yanran extended an olive branch to the two of them, the ring on Xiao Yan's hand suddenly flashed with a white light.

Of course, only Xiao Yan and Xiao Xue noticed this fleeting white light.

Black alert!

Between the solicitation of a strange force and the relics of his mother, Xiao Yan naturally chose the latter without hesitation.

After seeing off the guests, Xiao Xue's lips curled up slightly.
Chapter completed!
