This Void Devouring Flame seems a bit strange

Chapter 21 People with no emotional intelligence talk about people with no emotional intelligence

Ge Ye looked at the Void Devouring Flame in front of him, and his inner fear increased. There was obvious anger in the other party's words just now, and he even had a feeling: he might be reduced to ashes with just a thought from the other party - if he knew that this feeling was not only true, but also that even his biggest backer Yunshan would have the same fate in front of him, he might faint from fright on the spot.

Seeing Ge Ye's expression, Xuwu Tunyan was too lazy to continue his "performance". He had to be careful about adding fuel to the fire. After all, he was not the real protagonist of this incident. He then bowed to Xiao Zhan who was standing beside him and said, "I was a little impulsive just now. I'm sorry, Chief Xiao."

"It's okay, it's okay." Xiao Zhan pretended to be helpless and waved his hand. In fact, when Xuwu Tunyan talked nonsense without any scruples just now, he even wanted to cheer loudly in his heart.

Void Swallowing Flame then dodged and came to Xiao Yan's side: "Master Xiao Yan, I'm so sorry. I was so excited just now that I almost forgot that the final decision on this matter is still in your hands. But I still have something to say. Compromise may bring temporary peace, but some things will not change for the better just because you compromise, nor will they become worse just because you refuse to compromise. It depends on what you think."

This passage actually contains spoilers. Even if Xiao Yan does not let his anger run wild, the Xiao family will be targeted by the Yunlan Sect and the Soul Palace in the future. However, Xiao Yan at this moment naturally could not hear that meaning.

After saying that, Xuwu Tunyan jumped onto the beam again, waiting for Xiao Yan's next choice.

Xiao Yan nodded. Even though he was no longer a genius, it didn’t mean that he would be so mean as to compromise even when being bullied. The wild rant of Void Swallowing Flame just now really allowed him to vent his anger.

"Mr. Ge Ye, you'd better take the pills back. We won't agree to what happened today!" Xiao Yan's eyes were firm, and he squeezed out the words almost word by word.

“Xiao Yan, how can you have the right to speak here? Shut up!” An elder shouted angrily with a gloomy face. They did not dare to interrupt when Void Devouring Flame was disrupting the atmosphere before. After all, it seemed that the other party was not afraid of them. But with Xiao Yan, they did not have such concerns.

"Xiao Yan, please step back. I know you feel bad, but we will take charge here!" Another older man also said calmly.

"Haha... How interesting. Elders, if I remember correctly, I'm here to cancel the engagement with Young Master Xiao Yan, right? How can you even stop him from speaking? Could it be that I'm here to cancel the engagement with you?" Xuwu Tunyan laughed, his face full of mockery.

"You..." Hearing Xuwu Tunyan's teasing, the three elders held back the words that were on the tip of their tongues. If Xiao Yan dared to refute them like this, they would have scolded him long ago, but this guy was obviously not subject to this set of rules.

"Three elders, Mr. Xu Yan is right. You'd better not get involved." Xiao Xun'er's light voice sounded calmly. The three elders were completely speechless. Even Xiao Xun'er said so. If they continued to argue, they would only be asking for trouble.

Xiao Yan walked up with big strides, first bowed respectfully to Xiao Zhan, then turned around to face Nalan Yanran, took a deep breath, and asked calmly: "Miss Nalan, I would like to ask, has Master Nalan agreed to my decision to break off the engagement today?"

Nalan Yanran was already a little unhappy at this time, and now hearing Xiao Yan's question, her brows furrowed even more. This guy was really persistent. Didn't he know the gap between them?

Nalan Yanran's tone was calm and gentle, but to Xuwu Tunyan, it was extremely harsh: "Grandpa never agreed, but this is my business, and it has nothing to do with him."

"Good, you are courageous and dare to think about your own future. You deserve praise!" Untimely applause was heard, and Xuwu Tunyan looked "excited" and clapped his hands loudly, but anyone could see that he was speaking in a sarcastic way.

“Since the old man hasn’t said anything, please forgive me. My father won’t agree to your request. The original marriage was arranged by the old men of both families themselves. Now that they haven’t said anything to cancel it, then the marriage cannot be canceled without permission. Otherwise, it would be a blasphemy to the dead elders! I think no one in our clan would do such a rebellious thing, right?” Xiao Yan turned his head slightly and stared at the three elders with a sneer.

With such a huge accusation put on them, the three elders did not dare to say anything. Although they knew that Xiao Yan was just using his power to gain an upper hand, they also knew that the crime of blaspheming ancestors was a serious crime. Once punished, they would lose their positions as elders.

"You..." Nalan Yanran wanted to refute, but she couldn't find any reasonable words to fight back. After all, she was a flower in a greenhouse, and she was obviously far inferior in terms of verbal attacks.

Nalan Yanran's pretty face turned pale. She stamped her feet heavily and took a deep breath. Her temper, which had been spoiled for many years, was also aroused. She was already extremely irritated, so she simply said directly: "What do you want in order to cancel the engagement? Do you think the compensation is too little? Okay, I can ask the teacher to give you three more Qi Gathering Powders. In addition, if you are willing, I can also let you enter the Yunlan Sect to practice advanced fighting skills. Is this enough?"

Listening to the tempting conditions that came out of Nalan Yanran's mouth, the three elders suddenly felt their breathing quicken. The Xiao family members in the hall couldn't help but swallow their saliva. Entering the Yunlan Sect, the first sect of the Jia Ma Empire, to practice? God, that is something that countless people can't get even if they try their best. Thinking of this, some of the Xiao family members even looked at Xiao Yan with a bit of jealousy in their eyes - if it were them, they would definitely agree without saying a word.

Only Xuwu Tunyan raised the corner of his mouth and sneered. Not to mention that these conditions were nothing compared to Xiao Yan's later adventures, just Nalan Yanran's low EQ attitude in dealing with things and speaking was destined to turn things that could have been solved peacefully and made money into a pile of mess.

After stating these conditions, Nalan Yanran raised her chin and proudly waited for Xiao Yan's answer. In her opinion, such conditions were enough to drive any young man crazy, even if Xiao Yan was a tough guy.
