Fighting: Summon two Dou Huangs as bodyguards at the beginning

Thinking back to the powerful people of their time, some have aged, some have died, and there are only a few of them who can be seen now.

When Yao Ye heard the name Hai Bodong, he suddenly frowned.

"Grandfather, this Hai Bodong seems to be the one pushing the Xiao family behind the scenes, because our spies have discovered that the Xiao family has the support of the Mitel family in all aspects. Otherwise, they wouldn't have established a foothold in the imperial capital so quickly."

Jia Xingtian smiled and said, "Since it has something to do with that old man Hai Bodong, then don't worry about it. I'm going to go find him."

Yao Ye said worriedly, "Grandpa, please don't be impulsive. If you fall, our royal family will be in danger."

Jia Xingtian smiled slightly. Before Hai Bodong disappeared, they had fought countless times, and every time ended with Jia Xingtian's victory.

So he didn't think Hai Bodong could reach that level before him.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Besides, you can help the Xiao family in exchange for some goodwill." Jia Xingtian left after saying one last word.

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

The imperial capital, the new home of the Xiao family.

A large number of people were working hard inside, building houses and repairing waterways.

Xiao Ding looked at everything in front of him with satisfaction, and said to Ya Fei beside him with a smile: "Miss Ya Fei, thank you very much this time."

Ya Fei covered her red lips and smiled slightly, saying, "Brother Xiao Ding, please don't be so polite. These are orders from Elder Hai. Even the great elder of my clan, Mitel Tengshan, dare not slack off in the slightest."

"Yes, yes, I have to thank the Mittel family and Senior Hai for this matter." Xiao Ding immediately changed his words.

Ya Fei asked indirectly, "Old Hai said Xiao Yan is his friend. Is this true?"

Xiao Ding laughed heartily, then said, "This matter is indeed related to Xiao Yanzi and Senior Hai. It is thanks to Senior Hai's care that Xiao Yanzi has come this far. Our Xiao family will thank Senior Hai and the Mitel family in the future."

"Brother Xiao Ding, it's too formal for you to say that. We are all family, there's no need to be polite." Ya Fei is indeed a famous socialite. She knows that Xiao Yan and Hai Lao have a complicated relationship, and that Hai Lao is very important to the Mitel family.

So Yafei now wants to immediately improve the relationship between the two parties.

Ya Fei hasn't seen Xiao Yan for a long time, and she still has feelings for that young boy.

On the other side, the Nalan family was in a state of death.

Because the pillar of their family, the Imperial Lionheart Marshal Nalan Jie has been tortured beyond recognition by the poison.

Moreover, as the head of the Nalan family, his health problems will undoubtedly have a huge impact on the entire family.

It might even shake the Nalan family's position among the three major families in the entire Gama Empire, so the entire Nalan family is in a state of despair.

But now, at the gate of the Nalan family, there was a group of people welcoming Nalan Su and Nalan Yanran.

Nalan Su didn't show any good face to Nalan Yanran at all, and walked inside angrily as soon as he came down.

He only left one sentence: "Go see your grandfather, he misses you a lot."

Nalan Yanran was stunned at the door for a moment, thinking of her grandfather Nalan Jie, the old marshal who fought for his country all his life.

When she was a child, Nalan Jie was the best person to her in the family, and Nalan Yanran was also the one who was most attached to Nalan Jie.

However, because of the engagement, Nalan Yanran had previously had a conflict with her grandfather Nalan Jie, because Nalan Yanran felt that no one could decide her own affairs.

So she naturally didn't take her grandfather's dissuasion to heart.

After Nalan Jie learned that Nalan Yanran had gone to the Xiao family to break off the engagement, the conflict between the grandfather and grandson reached its peak.

Even though Nalan Jie was seriously ill, he still wanted Nalan Yanran to go back to the Xiao family to apologize and resume the engagement, but Nalan Yanran did not want to do so.

So after all this time, Nalan Yanran hadn't seen her grandfather for a long time.

Thinking of this, Nalan Yanran couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat. She regretted it now. Not that she regretted breaking off the engagement, but that she regretted having a conflict with her grandfather.

When Nalan Yanran thought that Nalan Jie's body would not last much longer, she became more and more resentful about the engagement.

"If I hadn't been engaged, I would probably still be a cheerful little girl now. I wouldn't have to bear so much pressure."

Nalan Yanran calmed down a bit and then came to the outside of her grandfather's room.

And now there are two people in the room.

Nalan Su and the sixth-grade alchemist Dan Wang Guhe were showing Nalan Jie the condition of the branding poison.

Although Gu He came several times and failed to cure the disease, Nalan Su still couldn't give up because of his son.

"Master Gu He, do you think there is any cure for my father's poison?" Nalan Su also looked a little tired.

Gu He shook his head and said helplessly: "There is really no way. Marshal Nalan Jie is too deeply poisoned. The detoxification pills I refined can no longer eradicate the poison. I can only try my best to suppress it. Now I really can't think of anything else except the strange fire.

Hearing the word "strange fire", Nalan Su's eyes dimmed again in an instant.

Strange fire is something you can only encounter by chance. How can it be so easy to obtain?

Instead of pinning his hopes on the strange fire treatment, Nalan Su might as well hope that there are other alchemists who have some special treatments that can cure the branding poison.

"Thank you, Master Gu He. I will send someone to deliver the reward to your house later." Nalan Su said with a smile.

Gu He shook his head and sighed.

"Marshal Nalan's poison can no longer be delayed. If we can't find a cure, there is probably little hope." Gu He said it very cryptically.

But it still made Nalan Yanran, who was standing outside the door, shudder. She couldn't imagine that her once amiable grandfather was going to leave.

Nalan Su nodded and still saw Gu He out the door.

Seeing Nalan Yanran standing outside, Gu He smiled and said, "Yanran has grown so tall now. To be honest, it's been several years since I last saw her, right?"

Nalan Su said: "Although I haven't seen it, but Yanran often eats the pills you refine."

"As an honorary elder of the Yunlan Sect, it is my duty to refine pills for Yanran, so you don't have to be polite." Gu He said with a smile.

Nalan Yanran also said: "Yanran has been busy with her cultivation in seclusion for the past two years and has no time to visit Elder Guhe. I am sorry for being rude."

Gu He waved his hand, talked for a few words, and then found an excuse to leave.

Nalan Su hurriedly followed and said to Nalan Yanran who was standing there, "You stay here with your grandfather. I will see Master Gu He off."

Nalan Yanran nodded woodenly.
