This Void Devouring Flame seems a bit strange

In a pharmacy in Wutan City, Xiao Ning was holding a piece of paper with various names of medicinal herbs written on it, and in front of him stood a middle-aged man who looked quite humble.

"Boss, when will the herbs on this list be ready?"

"Master Xiao, please rest assured. Everything can be done within two days at the earliest." The middle-aged man had a smile on his face. After all, although the unit price of these herbs was not very expensive, if the quantity increased, it would also be a considerable income.

"Two days? That's too slow. I'll add another hundred gold coins. Can it be compressed to tomorrow?"

"Oh, Master Xiao, you are really putting me in a difficult position. These herbs have to be shipped from the neighboring cities. You know that we are a small business with a small shop and cannot afford a storage ring. We can only use a horse-drawn carriage to transport them. Two days is already the limit." The middle-aged man showed a bitter look and waved his hands, indicating that he really could not do anything.

"Well... okay." Xiao Ning was also a little helpless. He hoped that Yu Xiao would not spend the money or use it for other things before the medicinal materials arrived. The worst possibility was that she would give it directly to Xiao Yan. After all, the Xiao family member with whom she had the best relationship was Xiao Yan.

"But Master Xiao, these herbs don't seem to be used for practicing fighting spirit. I wonder if Master Xiao..."

"Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask!" Xiao Ning was already annoyed because he wasn't sure whether the money was in Yu Xiao's hands. The shopkeeper's unintentional question became extremely harsh in his ears. This annoyance made him punch the counter hard, and several cracks appeared on the solid wood counter.

"Yes, yes, I was just asking casually. Please forgive me, Master Xiao." The boss smiled apologetically. Although the Xiao family was slightly affected by the previous broken engagement incident, in front of his small herbal medicine store, it was still the difference between a tiger and a rabbit. He couldn't afford to offend them.

"That's good to know. I'll come to pick it up in two days. If you dare to shortchange me, I won't forgive you." After saying that, Xiao Ning walked out with a swagger.

Watching Xiao Ning's angry back gradually disappear outside the door, the boss couldn't help but spit: "Even though the Yunlan Sect has broken off the engagement, you are still so arrogant. When your Xiao family loses power, I will definitely celebrate it properly."

Of course, Xiao Ning didn't hear the boss' bad words. At this time, he fell into another dilemma, that is, how to lure Xu Yan out and hold him? After all, this Xu Yan seemed to be an unrestrained and volatile person. Such a person was the most difficult to figure out, not to mention luring and holding him without using force, which was even more difficult.

There is no way to tempt the other party with money, because the other party is not someone who is short of money.

Erotic? I've heard before that Xiao Mei was "dressing up" next to him, but the other party didn't react at all.

Food? Xiao Ning thought of this and slammed his right fist into his left palm. Oh, right, didn't Xu Yan spend so much money to buy Yu Xiao because of the food Yu Xiao gave him? He obviously didn't need money, so why would he be tempted by this? It must be because Yu Xiao accidentally gave him what he wanted to eat!

If Xuwu Tunyan knew about Xiao Ning's "genius reasoning", he would definitely roll on the ground laughing, but of course he didn't know that.

After reaching the conclusion, Xiao Ning felt both happy and annoyed. He was happy because he finally came up with a good idea, but he was annoyed because he secretly hated himself for not giving Xu Yan food like Yu Xiao did, so that he would have a chance to make a name for himself.

On the other side, Yu Xiao was drying clothes outside his house. Looking at the bright sunshine, Yu Xiao felt that his mood seemed to have improved. At this moment, a voice that sounded quite "inappropriate" interrupted Yu Xiao's interest.

"Hello, little sister Yu Xiao." A frivolous voice came from above. Xuwu Tunyan, dressed in black, suddenly appeared from the air and then slowly descended to the ground.

"Ah, it's Mr. Xu Yan." After a brief surprise, Yu Xiao's face was full of joy, "Why are you here? I heard that you were staying at the Xiao family before, but later you talked back to someone from the Yunlan Sect and left the Xiao family. I asked many people but no one knew where you went..."

"Haha..." Xuwu Tunyan laughed twice. Just from these anxious words, he could tell that Yu Xiao was really grateful to him. "It's nothing. I'll go in with you and talk slowly."

The two walked into the house, which was still as simple as before. Xuwu Tunyan frowned and said, "Xiaoxiao, that Qi Gathering Powder must have sold for a lot of money, right?"

"Yes, but I wanted to save the money for a rainy day..."

"Is it because of Xiao Yan?" Xuwu Tunyan pointed out directly.

"this..."

"Why should you be ashamed? I am actually surprised by your behavior. If an ordinary person had received so much money, he would have indulged in a life of luxury. However, you have been able to maintain your original lifestyle and your mentality has not changed. This is commendable."

"Yes... because I hope to use this money to help Master Xiao Yan..."

"That's not necessary." Xuwu Tunyan casually moved a chair and sat on it. "Before I left the Xiao family, I went to diagnose Xiao Yan. I think now he doesn't have to worry about not being able to improve his fighting spirit."

"Really?" Yu Xiao's eyes lit up.

"Of course." Xuwu Tunyan's expression was a little proud. "So you don't have to worry about it. Who knows, in a while, his strength may rise faster than yours."

"That's normal, right? Young Master Xiao Yan is a genius. If it weren't for that strange disease, Young Master Xiao Yan would have at least reached the level of a Grand Fighter by now!"

A drop of sweat hung down the back of Void Swallowing Flame. He knew very well that Xiao Yan's achievements would not be limited to the Grand Fighter Master...

"By the way, I brought something good. Do you want to see it?"

"Good news?" Yu Xiao looked puzzled. "What is it?"

"You just need to know that it's a good thing." After saying that, Void Swallowed Flame waved his hand, and the recording crystal emerged from the thin air. Then Void Swallowed Flame waved his hand again, and black walls appeared out of thin air around the room, turning the whole room dark.

"Let's begin." As the room became dark, all the light was focused on the recording crystal. As the light on the recording crystal flowed over and over again, illusory images began to appear in the room.

"Mr. Xu Yan, is this what you mean by 'good deal'?"

"Yeah, just watch carefully. If you don't like it, you can hit me."

"Objection! Even if Marshal Nalan is busy with official business, he would send someone to visit us, right? Although the branding poison is troublesome, at least in the early stages of poisoning, it is not that threatening to those with Dou Wang strength. Young Sect Master Nalan, you don't think I am an ignorant person who can be fooled, do you?"

"Mr. Xu, you are not from the Xiao family, right? Please don't make any assumptions about this kind of thing."

"So? Isn't Mr. Ge Ye also not from the Nalan family? Could it be that Mr. Ge Ye knows more than her?"

"Hahaha!" Yu Xiao couldn't help laughing out loud when she saw the corners of Ge Ye's mouth twitching when he was confronted by Void Devouring Flame. Void Devouring Flame had always left her with the impression that he was a bit weird but not bad. However, seeing his eloquent and tit-for-tat manner, Yu Xiao had a new understanding of him.

"Nalan Yanran, you don't have to be so strong. You want to cancel the engagement because you think I, Xiao Yan, am a waste and unworthy of you, a daughter of heaven. To be blunt, apart from your beauty, I don't care about anything else! The Yunlan Sect is indeed very strong, but I'm still young and I still have time. I became a fighter when I was twelve years old. And you, Nalan Yanran, how many stages of fighting spirit were you when you were twelve? Yes, I am indeed a waste now, but since I was able to create a miracle three years ago, why do you think I can't turn things around again in the years to come?"

"Father, three years later, Yan'er will go to Yunlan Sect and personally wash away today's humiliation for you!"

"I will find you in three years!"

"Good!" Seeing this, Yu Xiao even forgot that it was just a video, and stood up and cheered loudly.

"It looks good, right? I told you to hit me if it doesn't look good." Xuwu Tunyan was quite satisfied with Yu Xiao's reaction. In fact, even he would still feel mysteriously excited if he watched such a scene again.
