But Xiao Yan was actually afraid of not having enough time, so he took the initiative to move up. I really have to admire him.

"Miss Xun'er, I have no interest in what's going on here. Do you have anything else?"

The indifferent words reached Xun'er's ears, which made her happy. Even though Brother Xiao Yan was making such a fuss, Feng Ye was not angry. His magnanimity was truly extraordinary.

Looking at it this way... Brother Xiao Yan is really becoming more and more... just as Nalan Yanran said, he doesn't even believe in himself anymore!

It seems he is no longer the Xiao Yan who used to be, spouting witty remarks and brimming with confidence.

Xun'er was filled with disappointment towards Xiao Yan, but she still held a glimmer of hope for him, looking at the man whose cheeks were already swollen and red, and said:

"Brother Xiao Yan, don't overthink it. I just went out to chat with him."

"Let's chat? Hehe~ Okay! Very good!"

Xiao Yan's eyes were filled with despair. Should he go to the Rose Restaurant to talk to a stranger?

Unexpectedly, Xun'er, who has always been as pure and elegant as a lotus flower, would change like this upon seeing Feng Ye.

Haha~

Seeing that Xiao Yan didn't believe her, Xun'er frowned, feeling quite uncomfortable, while Ling Ying was overjoyed to see this.

That would be great. That way, I can finally reveal the secret I've been keeping to myself without worrying about getting a scolding.

When Nalan Yanran saw Xiao Yan, who was acting like a madman, her eyes were filled with disgust.

She then turned her graceful figure with a flick of her sleeve, looking at the seven-star Grand Dou Master of the Yunlan Sect who was accompanying her. This person's name was... Ge Ye!

Kudzu Leaf: ε=(?ο`*))) Sigh~

........................

Me, as tough as nails... I'm going to do this thankless task again!

Chapter 235 The Annulment of the Engagement! Xiao Zhan's Compromise!

The old man understood Nalan Yanran's meaning, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across his face. He could only grit his teeth and step forward to bow to Xiao Zhan, saying:

“Clan Chief Xiao, as you know, the Yunlan Sect has a strict discipline, and the former sect leader and the sect master have very high expectations for Yanran.”

"Now that she has been chosen as the next sect leader, our Yunlan Sect has come here to see Xiao Yan..."

Everyone present understood the meaning behind what Kuzuha had said.

This caused the faces of everyone in the Xiao family to turn extremely ugly.

However, Kuzuha seemed completely oblivious to their expressions and continued:

"Clan Chief Xiao, everyone has witnessed Xiao Yan's performance..."

Upon hearing this, the members of the Xiao family were utterly devastated, especially Xiao Zhan, whose face had turned purple, while Xiao Yan below was burning with rage.

"You should understand that this is the will of the two sect leaders, so please dissolve the engagement between Xiao Yan and Yan Ran!"

"Click~"

As Ge Ye finished speaking, the jade cup in Xiao Zhan's hand turned from its rosy hue into a cloud of powder.

The atmosphere in the hall became extremely quiet, and the three elders of the Xiao family were also shocked by Ge Ye's words.

However, after a moment, they glanced at Ye Feng without leaving a trace, and they already knew in their hearts that the engagement was going to be dissolved.

The two sides are worlds apart in terms of status, identity, and strength. How can they possibly fulfill the so-called "arranged marriage"?

After understanding this principle, a hint of mockery and ridicule appeared in their eyes.

Should!

This is the consequence of not selling the ring. Let's see how you and your son handle this today.

Some of the younger generation of boys and girls were unaware of Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran's engagement before, but after secretly inquiring about it, their expressions became quite interesting.

All those mocking and sarcastic gazes were directed at the young man in the center of the hall, Xiao Yan!

Among them, Xiao Mei, Xiao Ning, and the others had eyes filled with the realization that it was indeed the right choice for them not to associate with Xiao Yan anymore.

Looking at Xiao Zhan's extremely gloomy face, Nalan Yanran did not show any embarrassment. After all, she, Nalan Yanran, was not an unreasonable person!

Everyone present had witnessed Xiao Yan's actions. His shameless and worthless behavior was something no woman would tolerate. This was not a marriage she had decided on herself!

Ge Ye glanced at his young sect leader, then at Ye Feng who had stopped at the door, and sighed helplessly, saying softly:

"Clan Chief Xiao, let me remind you, for the sake of the Sect Master, you should annul this engagement..."

Xiao Zhan clenched his fists, and an overwhelming surge of fighting spirit enveloped his body, eventually coalescing into a phantom lion's head on his face.

Seeing Xiao Zhan's somewhat intense reaction, Ge Ye was speechless. What he was doing was destined to be a thankless task.

Wasn't his well-intentioned reminder obvious enough?

If it weren't for the sake of Sect Master Yun Yun, that fierce man at the door could have crushed the Xiao family like an ant!

It's one thing for the son, Xiao Yan, to be so ignorant, but the father is also so ignorant. The Xiao family is just too ignorant.

Xiao Zhan released his fighting spirit, and Ge Ye's face also turned serious. He instantly appeared in front of Nalan Yanran and protected her behind him.

His eagle-claw-like hands suddenly clenched, and cyan battle qi gathered in his claws, radiating a battle qi that was in no way weaker than Xiao Zhan's.

Seeing the two "little guys" getting into a tense standoff, Ye Feng watched the spectacle with great interest.

He didn't want to miss this scene. He thought he would have to wait a few more days to see it, but now it's happening earlier than expected. But... why are they staring at me like that?

It wasn't me who made Nalan Yanran annul the engagement, tsk tsk~

Yunlan Sect only needs Yun'er! Hmm~ Yunlan Sect!

As Xiao Zhan and Ge Ye unleashed their auras, the other Yunlan Sect elder also frowned.

This elder was a true elder in name and in fact. Upon seeing this scene, the three elders of the Xiao family immediately knew that something was wrong.

Just as Xiao Zhan was breathing heavily, the three elders' stern shouts rang out in the hall like thunder:

"Xiao Zhan, stop right now!"

"Don't forget, you are the patriarch of the Xiao family!"

The stern shout was like a blow to the head, waking Xiao Zhan up. His fighting spirit slowly receded and finally disappeared completely.

At this moment, Xiao Zhan was already dejected, as if he had aged several years in an instant. He plopped back into his chair, his face indifferent, and he realized that he had just acted too impulsively.

Ge Ye's reminder made him realize that the annulment of the engagement not only had the support of the Yunlan Sect, but also the support of Feng Ye at the door.

The two major powers of the Gama Empire were both on the opposite side of the Xiao family, which made Xiao Zhan smile self-deprecatingly.

What merits does the Xiao family possess that have caused these two incredibly powerful families to join forces to annul the engagement?! Hehehe~

Xiao Zhan stared at Nalan Yanran standing before his son, and in a fit of rage, he laughed, his hoarse voice escaping:

"Niece Nalan, you truly have great courage. Nalan Su is so lucky to have a daughter like you!"

Nalan Yanran's delicate body trembled slightly. No matter what, the Xiao family and the Nalan family had been on good terms in her grandfather's generation, so she couldn't help but feel a little reluctant.

However, for the sake of her life's most important matter, she did not back down in the slightest, and parted her red lips slightly:

"Uncle Xiao..."

She was about to say something when Xiao Zhan waved his hand to interrupt her, his tone cold:

"Hehe~ Young Sect Master, I can't accept the title of Uncle Xiao. Just call me Clan Chief Xiao."

"You will be a prominent figure on the Dou Qi Continent in the future, while my Yan'er is just an ordinary person with mediocre talent, and is indeed not worthy of you!"

Although there was anger in those words, the annulment of the engagement was already decided.

After all, Xiao Zhan could see very clearly that Nalan Yanran was destined to become a Dou Shi, a prodigy, while his Yan'er...

He's nothing but a useless, shameless piece of trash!

In the past ten years or so, not a single girl from another ethnic group has become dependent on him. In any case, the Xiao family cannot change their fate.

The Ice Emperor once said something quite insightful:

Although you struggle to break free and do not want to be bound by fate, fate is always by your side, and you cannot escape it.

Upon seeing Xiao Zhan agree, Ge Ye was overjoyed and immediately continued to play the good guy, smiling obsequiously:

"Clan Chief Xiao, the Sect Master is aware that today's request has somewhat damaged the friendship between our two families, so he has specially sent me to bring two items as an apology."

As he spoke, Ge Ye's storage ring lit up, and then, a delicate glass bottle and an ancient jade box with a greenish hue appeared in his left and right hands, respectively.

Just by looking at these two "outer packaging" items, everyone knew that the contents inside were extraordinary.

Driven by Ge Ye's fighting spirit, both the box and the bottle cap were opened, and the next moment, a rich medicinal fragrance filled the hall.

"Gathering Qi Powder!!!"

The three elders curiously peeked into the jade box, their bodies jolted, and they exclaimed in surprise.

When their gazes fell upon the other small jade bottle, they all wore expressions of confusion, and simultaneously pointed at it in surprise, asking:

"What is this?"

Chapter 236 Xiao Yan~ Please stop courting death!

Ge Ye opened the exquisite objects in her hands, revealing a bright green pill the size of a longan and a bottle of purple liquid.
