Eternal madness

Chapter 221 Nalan Yanran is angry

"You little bastard! I'll kill you!"

A clear voice, tinged with boundless rage, rang out, revealing a young girl wielding a sword and chasing after a boy.

"I didn't mean to, I didn't mean to!" The boy in front covered his head and ran away in a panic.

"Run? I'll let you run!" The girl immediately activated her battle qi, increasing her speed significantly. She overtook the boy and arrived in front of him, her sword pointed at his throat!

The boy swallowed hard as he looked at the sharp sword that was less than inches from his throat.

"Xiao Yan! Tell me, how do you plan to die?" the girl said, her face flushed red, clearly angered.

"Cousin Xiao Yu, I didn't mean to, I didn't mean to. I was just strolling around the back mountain when my foot slipped and I fell down, accidentally landing in the hot spring where you were bathing. I didn't even know there was a hot spring there," Xiao Yan said humbly.

He was indeed wandering around the back mountain because he was upset, but he lost his footing and fell into the hot spring. Xiao Yu happened to be taking a bath there! Xiao Yan's unexpected intrusion was naturally mistaken for a peeping tom by Xiao Yu!
Of course, this wasn't what angered Xiao Yu the most. What angered her the most was when Xiao Yan accidentally touched Xiao Yu's thigh while swimming up from the hot spring. That was what angered Xiao Yu. How could a girl's body be touched by anyone so casually?
The crucial point was that Xiao Yan blurted out, "So soft~." That's what angered Xiao Yu the most.

Xiao Yu put away her sword, and Xiao Yan thought that Xiao Yu's anger had subsided. Then, Xiao Yu punched Xiao Yan in the eye socket with her embroidered fist.

"You little pervert, you little pervert! I'll let you peek, I'll let you peek, I'll let you touch me, I'll let you touch me!"

"Ahhhhh~"

Xiao Yu brutally beat Xiao Yan, and Xiao Yan's screams attracted many Xiao family disciples to come and watch.

It's become a daily occurrence in the Xiao family for Xiao Yu to beat Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan has been beaten by Xiao Yu since he was a child. No matter if Xiao Yan is a genius or a good-for-nothing, Xiao Yu dares to beat him.

"Tsk tsk tsk, what did Xiao Yan do to offend Xiao Yu this time? Why was he beaten like this?"

"I don't know, but it's strange, Xiao Yu treats Xiao Yan equally no matter what he does, could she?"

"Don't talk nonsense, Nalan Yanran is here!"

Nalan Yanran arrived upon hearing the news and, seeing Xiao Yan being brutally beaten by Xiao Yu, immediately stepped forward to stop Xiao Yu.

“Sister Xiao Yu, can’t we talk things out properly? There’s no need to resort to violence like this,” Nalan Yanran said, grabbing Xiao Yu’s hand.

"Hmph! Yanran, you can control your man. He's so young, yet he dares to do such a thing! Be careful he doesn't do something to betray you later!" Xiao Yu said angrily.

Nalan Yanran was speechless. She didn't know what Xiao Yan had done to offend Xiao Yu. There were a few times when Xiao Yan deserved to be beaten because of his sharp tongue, but this time the beating was a bit too severe.

"Hmph! Xiao Yan gave Yanran some face this time, so don't hang around in front of me, or I'll beat you every time I see you!" Xiao Yu stormed off, and then saw the Xiao family disciples gathered here, all of whom were furious.

"What are you looking at! Don't you need to cultivate? Get out of here!" Xiao Yu shouted at the top of her lungs.

The Xiao family disciples who had been watching the drama immediately scattered and fled. They didn't dare to provoke Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu was like a rose with thorns; although she was beautiful, she was very prickly. No one dared to provoke her, except for Xiao Yan, of course.

Nalan Yanran sighed, then looked at Xiao Yan, whose face was bruised and swollen, helped him up, and left.

. . . . . .

Xiao Yan's room

"Sigh~"

Xiao Yan grimaced in pain because the ointment hurt when it was applied to his face.

At this moment, Nalan Yanran was examining Xiao Yan's eyes. She said speechlessly, "How did you offend Xiao Yu this time? Why is she so ruthless?"

Xiao Yan's eyes darted away, not daring to speak. "Speak!" Nalan Yanran's jade-like hand pressed directly onto Xiao Yan's wound.

"Ouch! I'll tell you, I'll tell you! I was feeling down, so I went for a walk in the back mountain and then I slipped and fell off a cliff into the hot spring where Xiao Yu is bathing! Ouch! Don't press, it hurts!"

Xiao Yan's revelation of the truth indeed angered Nalan Yanran, who then applied the medicine with even more force!
"Sister Xiao Yu is right, you really are a little pervert! Don't say you don't know that place, I know you've peeked at me before!" Nalan Yanran sneered.

"Uh..." Xiao Yan blushed, he hadn't expected Nalan Yanran to know.

"Hey~ Xiao Yan, you..."

Bang!
"Brother Xiao Yan, Xun'er has come to see you!"

Xiao Xun'er pushed open the door. She had heard that Xiao Yan had been beaten by Xiao Yu today, so she specially prepared ointment and came to find Xiao Yan.

“Brother Xiao Yan.” Xiao Xun’er saw Nalan Yanran at this moment. Nalan Yanran was applying medicine to Xiao Yan. Xiao Xun’er’s back teeth were instantly clenched to powder, but she still tried to remain calm.

"Oh, it's Sister Yanran! Since Brother Xiao Yan has Sister Yanran to take care of him, then Xun'er will be going now. Brother Xiao Yan, don't forget to apply the medicine!"

Xiao Xun'er left the ointment there and left, leaving Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran completely bewildered.

"What is this girl doing?"

"do not know."

Nalan Yanran looked at Xiao Yan, sighed inwardly, and then asked, "Xiao Yan, what are you planning to do next? Are you just going to give up like this?"

Upon being asked this question, Xiao Yan's mood instantly soured: "Sigh~ What can I do? There's nothing wrong with my body. My second grandfather examined me and he's very certain that there's nothing wrong with my body, but the problem of how my fighting spirit disappeared is still unresolved."

Nalan Yanran also sighed. She learned from her teacher that Xiao Yan's second grandfather, Xiao Li, who was also her teacher's husband, was a top-level expert and an extremely powerful alchemist.

The ancient river, which was once famous in the Jia Ma Empire, was nothing but a fart in front of that Lord Xiao Li.

Speaking of Guhe, it is said that he was once courted by the royal family of the Gama Empire, but Guhe refused the royal family's invitation and then left the Gama Empire, his whereabouts unknown.

"So what do you plan to do? Just let yourself fall into depravity?" Nalan Yanran asked, hoping that Xiao Yan could give her a different answer.

"Maybe? What else can I do? I'm a useless piece of trash now, I might not even be good enough for you."

Snapped!
A crisp slap rang out as Nalan Yanran slapped Xiao Yan across the face, leaving him stunned.

Nalan Yanran's eyes were filled with tears, and then she quickly ran out of Xiao Yan's room.

"Yanran~ sigh~" Xiao Yan covered his face and sighed as he looked at Nalan Yanran's back.

Nalan Yanran, her eyes red, kept running forward, only to bump into someone and knock them down as well.

"Huh? Nalan Yanran?" The person bumped into by Nalan Yanran was Xiao Xun'er. She was muttering to herself when Nalan Yanran bumped into her.

"Hmph!" Nalan Yanran stood up and ran towards her teacher's residence.

"What? You bumped into someone and didn't even apologize? You stinky Nalan Yanran!" Xiao Xun'er said angrily.

"What's wrong with Nalan Yanran? Wasn't she just in Brother Xiao Yan's room? Why is she like this?"
