At this moment, those extremely beautiful eyes had shifted from the book to Xiao Yan's fingers.
To the astonished gazes of everyone in the hall, what they saw was nothing more than an ordinary ring; the black color looked antique, but there was nothing different about it!
But beneath Xun'er's eyes, which gleamed with golden flames, this ancient black ring caused her delicate body to tremble slightly. Then, she exclaimed inwardly:
"A storage ring!!! And a top-tier storage ring at that!!!"
"Furthermore... the soul barrier within this storage ring can actually block my detection! Could it be..."
Suddenly, a look of surprise flashed in Xun'er's eyes.
So that's how it is. Have you finally found it?
But why it ended up on Brother Xiao Yan is a tricky question!
It seems that Feng Ye also recognized this as a top-tier storage ring and wanted to obtain what was inside.
Under no circumstances should he be allowed to obtain this storage ring, otherwise...
Xiao Yan looked down at the storage ring in his hand, then looked up at his father and refused:
“I’m sorry, Young Master Feng, this is a keepsake left to me by my mother, and I cannot sell it.”
"Oh? I see... then I won't force you to do anything."
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng shook his head helplessly, but the next moment, a kind smile appeared on his face:
"However, if you ever want to sell, just come to me. I should be able to help you become an alchemist."
"What? An alchemist???"
Before the words were even finished, everyone in the room was so shocked that they stood up from their seats.
Alchemists are the most precious profession on the continent. If the Xiao family had an alchemist, they would definitely soar to great heights.
It's only a matter of time before they become the most prestigious family.
Of course, the benefits don't stop there, because becoming an alchemist means you'll have Feng Ye as your teacher!
This powerful background is so strong that if one person achieves enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs will benefit.
Not to mention in Wutan City, all the forces in the entire Gama Empire have to give the Xiao family some face.
At this moment, the Xiao family members were completely shocked. The three elders' old faces were no longer wrinkled at all, and their mouths were stretched to their ears.
Their delight was palpable, and even Nalan Yanran and the others from the Yunlan Sect couldn't help but be surprised.
Such a powerful temptation caused Xun'er's gaze to turn to surprise once again.
With such generous terms, the currently weak Xiao family will most likely agree.
But if Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yan don't agree, then the secret in this ancient ring must be... the ancient jade!
Ye Feng didn't look at Xun'er's expression, but he was confident at the moment. Given Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yan's personalities, how could they possibly agree?
Jiejiejie~~~
Xiao Yan was already attracted by Ye Feng's offer. He was currently a waste, but to become an alchemist, he first had to be someone who wasn't a waste.
In other words, this young man can help me regain my fighting spirit and become a respected alchemist, but the condition is that I must hand over my mother's belongings to him!
How is this possible?
Putting aside the love his mother showed him before she passed away after he came into this world, even his father would kick him out of the house!
Furthermore, the resources he obtained by exchanging his mother's belongings will haunt him for the rest of his life, subjecting him to a lifetime of ridicule and sarcasm.
"Young Master Feng, I still have to apologize. This ring is the only keepsake my mother left me..."
"presumptuous!!!"
"Xiao Yan, you are nothing but a good-for-nothing young master of my Xiao family. When did you become the one to answer Young Master Feng's question about this matter?"
"Hehehe~ Young Master Feng, this kid's got a screw loose, don't worry about him. That ring... my Xiao family will sell it!!!"
At this moment, these three voices startled Ye Feng and Xiao Xun'er, who thought to themselves:
Those three scoundrels from the Xiao family!!!
Chapter 233 Xiao Yan, who is disliked, shakes hands with Xun'er!
Three sharp shouts echoed in the Xiao family hall, making Xiao Yan, the target, feel his head buzzing.
It's a ring that clearly belongs to me, but whether or not I sell it is not up to me to decide.
These three old geezers are simply going too far!
“Three elders, this ring is a keepsake left to me by my mother, and Xiao Yan will never sell it to anyone else.”
Such humiliation was unacceptable to Xiao Yan, who, with his resolute character, would never yield. His eyes gleamed with determination as he glared at the three elders.
"How dare you! When have you, a mere child, ever been allowed to decide matters concerning the Xiao family? The clan leader must sell this ring."
The eldest elder of the Xiao family rebuked Xiao Yan, and an aura of pressure immediately forced Xiao Yan to kneel down and not get up.
However, as she finished speaking, she turned her gaze to Xiao Zhan.
Whether or not the ring is sold depends on the clan leader's decision, since he is the one who speaks to the outside world.
Xiao Zhan's mind was in turmoil, and he seemed to be deep in thought. After a moment of contemplation, he bowed slightly to Ye Feng and said:
“My son is young and ignorant, please forgive him, Young Master Feng. Xiao Zhan apologizes on behalf of the Xiao family once again.”
"Young Master Feng, to show the sincerity of the Xiao family, we will present this ring to you!"
Ye Feng, who was enjoying his tea and watching the commotion, was startled by Xiao Zhan's words. It seemed that Xiao Zhan was the only "sober-minded person" in the Xiao family.
Xiao Zhan already knew perfectly well why the ancient clan's Xun'er had come here, but as the clan leader and the only one who knew the secret, he could only bear it alone.
He didn't know what his son Xiao Yan's ring was, but it wasn't the ancient jade. In that case, it was better to divert the attention of the ancient clan.
He could also do Feng Ye a favor, a win-win situation, so he had to do it.
As for his deceased wife's belongings, they would be of little importance to any family patriarch...
"Father, this..."
"shut up!"
Upon seeing that Xiao Zhan had actually agreed, Xiao Yan, who was kneeling on the ground, hurriedly tried to stop him and said something, but was immediately stopped by Xiao Zhan.
When Xiao Yan saw his usually loving father rebuking him so angrily, he was stunned for a moment.
At that very moment, the Third Elder of the Xiao family flashed and appeared directly in front of Xiao Yan, intending to reach out and take off the ring.
"Wait a minute..."
Just then, Ye Feng, who was sipping tea, suddenly called out to stop the Third Elder's actions.
Slowly setting down the teacup, Ye Feng smiled calmly:
"Third Elder, there's no need to rush. To tell you the truth, this ring is just a high-grade storage ring. The reason I wanted to buy it was simply because I was curious about what was inside!"
"Since this ring is a keepsake from the Third Young Master's mother, I, Feng Ye, cannot bear to make him part with it so painfully. Let's just let this matter go!"
He casually waved his hand, causing the Xiao family members to look extremely unpleasant.
Because by rejecting Feng Ye today, they are essentially rejecting the entire Gama Empire!
The Xiao family will have no place to stay in the Jia Ma Empire. Even if Feng Ye doesn't care, if word gets out, which family would dare to cooperate with them?
Even in Wutan City, the Jialie family and the Oba family would join forces to wipe them out. Thinking of this, the Xiao family members all turned pale.
His eyes were filled with rage as he looked at Xiao Yan, wishing he could devour him alive.
The three elders even considered expelling Feng Ye from the Xiao family at this moment, but before that, they had to wait until Feng Ye left before taking off the ancient black storage ring.
The ring that Feng Ye, a man of such stature, is so valuable must contain something extremely precious. If the Xiao family were to obtain it, they might also have a chance to rise to power!
Having thought this through, the three elders exchanged glances, then returned to their seats and remained silent.
As the clan leader, Xiao Zhan looked at his son with disappointment in his eyes. It's good to have pride, but it depends on who you're dealing with.
If the other party were Nalan Yanran, it would be fine, but this Feng Ye is the lover of Nalan Yanran's teacher Yun Yun, and the leader of the alliance between the Jia Ma Empire and the Snake People!
Refusing such a powerful figure would bring annihilation upon the Xiao family!
But Feng Ye's words had already been spoken, and there was no way to salvage the situation now.
He thought that by purchasing the Foundation Establishment Elixir refined by Feng Ye, he could get rid of the reputation of being a good-for-nothing, but in reality, it had no effect at all.
So... it seems Yan'er is destined to be a good-for-nothing for life.
Sigh~ I didn't want things to come to this, but now I have no choice.
In a secluded spot, Xiao Xun'er slowly opened the book in her hand again, her curiosity about the storage ring growing even stronger.
Because in her eyes as an outsider, Xiao Zhan and his son Xiao Yan were like good cop and bad cop, working together to leave the ring in the Xiao family.
The object hidden inside this ring might truly be the legendary Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade!
Ye Feng glanced casually at the people around him, secretly chuckling to himself.
Xiao Yanzi, who was already a good-for-nothing, will now become the public enemy of the Xiao family.
Xiao Xun'er will also have a different opinion on this. If this matter gets out, Xiao Yan's reputation as a good-for-nothing will become well-known in the Jia Ma Empire.
Today, his selfish actions, which are not for the sake of his family but only for his own sake, will also arouse the resentment of countless people.
