Battle Through the Heavens: Emperor Yan, please restrain yourself; your elder brother is truly hones

Xun'er quickly looked away and said, "Brother Yuan, I said there's no need to trouble yourself because I think you only need to show your talent and strength to get Miss Ya Fei to agree to cooperate."

Zhang Yuan revealed an "I knew it" expression and said, "Xun'er thinks I didn't do that?"

Upon hearing this, Xun'er and Xiao Yan suddenly recalled the speed contest between Zhang Yuan and Gu Ni.

So at that time, he was already increasing his stakes!

"It was Xun'er who was too clever for her own good." Xun'er's eyes filled with grievance.

“I didn’t mean that,” Zhang Yuan shook his head and said, “It’s just that because of Mu Zhan, I know a lot about Ya Fei and know how to treat her effectively.”

"Treat the symptoms?" Xun'er composed herself and suddenly asked with a smile, "Why doesn't Brother Yuan keep calling Sister Yafei anymore?"

Zhang Yuan's lips twitched slightly as he explained softly, "Xun'er, I have no relation to Ya Fei. The name is just a way of using her methods to deal with her."

"Hehe." Xiao Yan revealed a meaningful smile.

It doesn't matter now, but that doesn't mean it won't matter in the future.

However, sensing Zhang Yuan's gaze, reason prevented him from saying anything reckless.

"What about Little Fairy Doctor?" Xun'er caught Zhang Yuan off guard.

"Hahaha!" Zhang Yuan didn't dare to answer directly. He reached out and hooked his arm around Xiao Yan's shoulder, awkwardly changing the subject, "Brother Yan, this seems to be my Xiao family's market, right?"

“That’s right, it is.” Xiao Yan immediately began to cooperate, but secretly memorized the name Little Fairy Doctor in his heart.

Unsurprisingly, this Little Fairy Doctor must be a romantic entanglement left behind by my cousin.

Sigh, my cousin is great in every way, except he's too attractive to women and doesn't know how to say no.

"Oh, isn't this Miss Xun'er? I didn't expect to run into her while just strolling around. What a coincidence!"

The three were chatting casually when a clear laugh suddenly came from ahead.

Looking in the direction of the sound, one could see a richly dressed young man standing in front of a street stall, surrounded by a large crowd.

He was about twenty years old. Although his appearance was far inferior to Zhang Yuan's, he was still considered handsome, with a healthy white complexion. At this moment, he was staring at Xun'er with a burning gaze, his eyes filled with intense desire.

"Fate?" Xun'er's smile faded, and she said indifferently, "Galeao, meeting you only makes me feel unlucky."

"Don't say that." The young man stepped forward and smiled, "Xun'er remembers my name. This Wutan City is so big, it's not easy to bump into someone while shopping. Speaking of which, I recently got a nice necklace. If Miss Xun'er likes it, I'll give it to you, how about it?"

The young man also took out a necklace inlaid with a magic core.

Xun'er frowned and remained silent.

"Beauty is a curse," Xiao Yan sighed.

Zhang Yuan glanced at him without saying a word, and his body suddenly turned into a blur.

The next moment, Zhang Yuan appeared in front of Galeo and threw a punch.

"boom!"

A thunderous roar erupted, and silver-purple lightning flashed, causing many people to instinctively close their eyes.

Galeo, however, stared wide-eyed, feeling time slowing down around him as he watched his fist grow larger, but he could do nothing about it.

Just as he was inwardly cursing his bad luck, a figure appeared behind him, its body covered in a veil of fighting spirit, and it also threw a punch.

"boom!"

The two fists collided, and the figure behind Galeo was sent flying backward, flying more than ten feet before crashing into the wall and being buried in the dust and ruins.

The fighting spirit on Zhang Yuan's fist disappeared, but the force of his punch remained undiminished, striking Galeo directly in the stomach.

"puff!"

Galeo coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed to his knees.

"I can."

Galeo raised his head, intending to say something, but his pupils suddenly contracted after he saw Zhang Yuan's face clearly.

"Looks like you still remember me." Zhang Yuan looked down at Jia Lie'ao and said indifferently, "Two years ago, when I saw you harassing Xiao Yu, I warned you not to be glib in front of any of the women in my Xiao family, or I would beat you every time I saw you. You don't seem to have taken it to heart."

Galeo swallowed hard.

Having not seen Zhang Yuan for two years, he assumed the latter had long since died out there. In addition, Xun'er was too pure and beautiful, so he had indeed forgotten the warning the other party had given him back then.

Unexpectedly, not only was the opponent not dead, but he was also so powerful that he took down the four-star Dou Shi protecting him with a single punch. It's unbelievable.

"Brother Yan, take this. You can exchange it for some pocket money."

Zhang Yuan reached out and snatched the necklace from Galeo's hand, then casually tossed it to Xiao Yan behind him.

"Thank you, cousin." Xiao Yan weighed the necklace in his hand.

In the coming period, I can go to Junyage (the No. 1 restaurant in Wutan City) for a few good meals.

"get out!"

Zhang Yuan casually kicked Galeo away, as if he were kicking away a piece of trash.

He then strode back to Xun'er's side, took her hand, and said in a doting tone, "From now on, when you're out, just say my name, so that those shameless flies won't bother you."

Xun'er was taken aback, then her cheeks flushed, and a smile bloomed on her face, brighter than ever before.

Xiao Yan: "."

Damn it, I shouldn't be here, I should be under the car!

Chapter 16 If it really comes down to a duel, we still need to rely on Elder Yao.

"Brother Yuan"

Feeling the warmth from her hand, Xun'er suddenly felt that Little Fairy Doctor, Consort Ya, and Xiao Yu were all unimportant.

At least for now, the only one whose relationship with Zhang Yuan has been openly acknowledged and openly displayed is Gu Xun'er.

As long as Gu Xun'er reigns, all other women will ultimately be concubines.

Xun'er lowered her head, her whole being like a blooming snow lotus, even more beautiful yet making people afraid to look at her for too long.

"Da da da!"

A group of people rushed over after hearing the commotion of fighting. They were wearing uniforms with the Xiao family crest printed on them.

"Young Master Xiao Yan, Miss Xun'er, Young Master Zhang Yuan."

Upon seeing that it was Xiao Yan and his two companions, the head of the market patrol team immediately saluted.

Zhang Yuan nodded in response and said, "Send someone to take Jia Lie'ao and that Dou Shi back to the Jia Lie family and tell them that Jia Lie'ao attempted to harass a woman of the Xiao family in my Xiao family market, and that I, Zhang Yuan, dealt with him."

"If Chief Jialie is dissatisfied, he can come to the Xiao family to find me. I will be waiting for him anytime."

His words were incredibly domineering, and coupled with the fact that he wiped out a Dou Shi with a single punch, they were convincing.

"Yes!" The patrol captain immediately sent someone to do it.

Zhang Yuan offered them a few words of encouragement and advice, then took Xun'er and Rouyi's hands and walked forward in hushed tones.

Xiao Yan: "."

Turns out I'm really superfluous. I definitely need to find a girlfriend in the future so I can feed you guys a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection)!

Xiao Yan crossed his arms and followed behind the two like a walking corpse.

Once the three disappeared around the corner, the area around the market immediately became noisy.

"Who is that person? So imposing."

"You didn't even know that? It's Zhang Yuan, the young master of the Xiao family's maternal relatives. I heard he joined the Black Armor Guard and is even a captain."

"Hiss, the captain of the Black Armor Guard, isn't that a high-level Battle Master!?"

"If I remember correctly, Zhang Yuan is only sixteen years old, right?!"

"It's so scary."

"Such a young man, and a Black Armor Guard at that, no wonder he treats the Galley family like nothing."

"This is how a true genius should be."

"."

The Xiao family patrol team felt honored to hear these words.

About fifteen minutes later, Xiao Yan, who was still lamenting that he was superfluous, stopped walking.

Suddenly, he heard Yao Lao's voice: "Hey, Xiao Yanzi, there's a stall over there with a piece of black iron that's good stuff. Go buy it."

Following Yao Lao's directions, Xiao Yan looked at a stall and found an old black iron plate on it. The surface was covered with rust and yellow mud that had not been washed off, indicating that it had just been dug out of the ground not long ago.

The old doctor said it was a good thing, so Xiao Yan naturally didn't doubt it. But the problem was that he didn't bring any money with him. Was he supposed to use the necklace Zhang Yuan gave him to buy the iron pieces?

If the stall owner discovers that the sheet of iron is a valuable item, he might have to pay a hefty price.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan quickly caught up with Zhang Yuan and told him about Yao Lao's discovery.

"A piece of metal? It'll absorb the palm strike."

Zhang Yuan immediately guessed what it was.

The metal plate contained a low-level Xuan-rank combat skill called Absorb Palm, which had no attribute.

The strongest fighting technique in the Xiao family right now is only at the mid-level of the Xuan rank, which can only be learned by the high-ranking members of the clan and the elites who have made meritorious contributions. This Absorption Palm is quite good and very useful before becoming a Dou Wang.

"It's a good opportunity for me to learn as well."

With a thought, Zhang Yuan walked up to the stall, crossed his arms, and asked, "How much for all of these?"

The stall owner's eyes lit up, and he was about to offer a price.

Zhang Yuan spoke first, saying, "You only have one chance to speak. If the price doesn't satisfy me, I'll turn around and leave."

The stall owner hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Five thousand, no, four thousand five gold coins."

At this price, he can probably earn five hundred gold coins.

"Wrap it up." Zhang Yuan took out a pile of gold coins.

The stall owner's breath hitched, and he quickly rolled up the bundle, smiling as he said, "Thank you for your patronage, young master."

Zhang Yuan nodded and looked at Xiao Yan: "It's been two years since we last met, so consider these a gift for you."
