Longevity: Start with the farming game!

The messenger's voice was simply too loud, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Xiao Yan calmly glanced at the messenger, noticing that he belonged to the faction of the Great Elder, Xiao Hong.

But all sorts of onlookers had already heard it.

"Rumor has it that Tantai Mengxue is a great beauty, why don't we go take a look?"

"Let's go, let's go have a look! Let's witness it."

"That's exactly what I was thinking!"

"You guys go, I still need to watch the store..."

"Heh, naive, you probably can't even step through the Xiao family's door..."

Regardless of what everyone thought, the news of the Myriad Sword Sect visiting the Xiao family spread like wildfire.

Soon, even Ji Gao, the City Lord of Guanhai City, and the other four Foundation Establishment families of Guanhai City, Fang, Wang, Xu, and Zheng, received the news.

They also sent people to the Xiao family to investigate, but they had seen too many situations where people scattered after losing power.

They could more or less guess the intentions of the Myriad Sword Sect and Tantai Mengxue, but they needed to confirm the results to be completely at ease.

Xiao Yan walked step by step towards the Xiao family, carrying the gazes of all sides.

After Xiao Yan and Xiao Xing'er walked away, Han Xuanyu and Bai Da followed behind the crowd, heading towards the Xiao family.

"Xiao Yan-gege, the person from the Xuanzhen Sect seems to have followed us."

Xiao Xing'er held Xiao Yan's hand, pretending to be nonchalant.

"Is that so?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yan looked back and found Han Xuanyu and Bai Da silently following behind the crowd.

Han Xuanyu keenly noticed Xiao Yan looking over and immediately gave him a friendly smile.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan also smiled and nodded, then looked at Xiao Xing'er: "My intuition tells me that this person is not bad, the aura on his body is very peaceful."

"If I have the opportunity, I would like to communicate with him."

Xiao Xing'er nodded thoughtfully: "Okay, Xiao Yan-gege, I'll listen to you."

In fact, what Xiao Xing'er was thinking was, "As long as I'm here, I won't let anyone hurt Xiao Yan-gege!"

Flying spirit boats were prohibited within Guanhai City, so it took everyone about half an hour to reach the Xiao family.

The Xiao family had tall and imposing pavilions, and two majestic purple jade lion statues stood beside the gate.

Han Xuanyu liked it at first glance, "Very good! It just so happens that my sect needs some repairs."

"If Xiao Yan could become my disciple, hehe, it would be killing two birds with one stone."

As soon as they arrived at the Xiao family, a gatekeeper immediately released a powerful aura: "The Xiao family has distinguished guests visiting today, irrelevant people, leave quickly!!!"

A tall and mighty man, at the thirteenth level of Qi Refining, walked slowly out of the Xiao family: "Everyone, please go back!"

Xiao Yan nodded slightly to the man and led Xiao Xing'er into the Xiao family.

Upon seeing this scene, the crowd could only retreat reluctantly, retreating to the vicinity to inquire about news.

Seeing that Xiao Yan had disappeared from sight, Han Xuanyu was also very helpless and could only retreat to the side with Bai Da.

"Hey, we can't get in, and we can't possibly force our way in, right?"

Suddenly, Han Xuanyu remembered that he hadn't checked the system store for a long time, and he quickly opened the store panel that only he could see.

[Perfect Second-Order Detoxification Pill: 300 Low-Grade Spirit Stones]

[Invisibility Potion: 5,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones]

[Crimson Fire Crystal: 10,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones]

"Invisibility Potion?"

Han Xuanyu decisively clicked on the Invisibility Potion.

Invisibility Potion: After consuming this potion, the player will enter the "Invisible" state for one hour.

Cultivators below the late stage of the Golden Core will not be able to detect the player, and the player can voluntarily解除 the "Invisible" state.

"That's it!"

Han Xuanyu decisively clicked to buy it.

Bai Da only saw Han Xuanyu gesticulating in the air for a while, but he didn't think much about it.

"Bai Da, you wait for me here, I'll be back in a while, take these spirit stones and buy some food!"

Han Xuanyu casually threw a spirit stone to Bai Da, and then disappeared into thin air.

Bai Da surprisedly took the spirit stone and respectfully said to the direction where Han Xuanyu disappeared: "Yes, Shifu!"

…

Xiao Family Hall.

A stunningly beautiful female cultivator wearing an embroidered long robe, Tantai Mengxue, was sitting quietly on the side.

Beside her sat a serious-looking female cultivator with a hint of meanness, who was the Inner Sect Golden Core Elder of the Myriad Sword Sect, Liu Jue.

She was also Tantai Mengxue's protector.

In the middle of the hall, dozens of boxes of precious elixirs and more than a dozen boxes of rare spirit plants of high age, as well as magical artifacts and spirit stones, were neatly placed.

These were all treasures brought by the Myriad Sword Sect, causing the Xiao family's Great Elder and other elders to be pleasantly surprised.

However, the Xiao family patriarch, Xiao Zhan, looked at Tantai Mengxue with a complicated expression: "My son has received the news and is on his way back."

"But..."

Xiao Zhan gestured at the treasures placed on the ground and looked at Tantai Mengxue cautiously: "But there's no such thing as a free lunch, I wonder what important matter Tantai niece has?"

Tantai Mengxue imperceptibly glanced at Liu Jue beside her, then stood up and looked at Xiao Zhan, taking a deep breath before saying:

"Xiao Uncle, Mengxue has come here this time for the purpose of dissolving the marriage contract between me and Xiao Yan."

"These elixirs are to be considered compensation, and if it's not enough, we can discuss it further."

"Moreover, these elixirs have a powerful effect on treating cultivation stagnation and may be of great help to Xiao Yan!"

Xiao Zhan already felt that something was wrong when he heard this, but he still said bitterly: "This marriage contract was still jointly set by my father, Xiao Xiong, and your grandfather, Tantai Ao."

"My father and Tantai Ao were as close as brothers, even if my father has passed away, does Old Man Tantai Ao also agree to the annulment of the engagement?"

At this time, Xiao Yan and Xiao Xing'er also rushed into the hall.

Xiao Yan had already heard clearly what Xiao Zhan said outside the door, but Xiao Yan was helpless and could only clench his fists and respectfully said to Xiao Zhan: "Father, Yan'er is here!"

Xiao Xing'er nodded politely: "Xiao Uncle."

Xiao Zhan looked at Xiao Yan affectionately and smiled at the two of them: "Yan'er! Xing'er!"

Tantai Mengxue's face darkened when she heard what Xiao Zhan said earlier, "Grandpa."

Then she looked at Xiao Yan and firmly looked at Xiao Zhan and said: "My fate will be determined by myself."

"Sixteen years ago, Xiao Xiong and Grandpa ventured into the Demon Bone Forest together, during which there were countless dangers, and the two formed a deep friendship."

"It was even proposed that if the descendants of both parties were of opposite genders, they should enter into a marriage contract."

"In the same year, the Tantai family gave birth to me, Tantai Mengxue, and the Xiao family also gave birth to Xiao Yan."

"Could it be that this is the will of heaven? No, my fate is up to me, not up to heaven, I, Tantai Mengxue, do not agree with a fate decided by others!"

"Wow, I'm fired up!"

Han Xuanyu, hiding on the eaves, sighed silently, the story version was really too different, this was not the story of Battle Through the Heavens after all.

Xiao Yan didn't say much after hearing Tantai Mengxue's words.

If Tantai Mengxue took advantage of his power to be opportunistic.

And took advantage of his loss of power to leave smoothly, Xiao Yan would only feel disappointed and betrayed.

Just like the relatives in the clan would also hold him up high during Xiao Yan's dazzling genius period, with all kinds of flattery and flattery, doing everything possible to please him.

But when overnight, his cultivation was completely lost, the praise of the past turned into ridicule and abuse, as well as various obstructions, the clansmen held him up high and then threw him down heavily.

In the end, after the warmth and coldness, he was able to see the truth, only his father, eldest brother, second brother, and Xiao Xing'er had always stood behind Xiao Yan.

As for Tantai Mengxue, whether Xiao Yan was rich or poor, she had never appeared, she was more like a stranger.

There was no connection with Xiao Yan, and there was no right or wrong.

Xiao Yan thought that he was a person being played by fate, but now it seems that Tantai Mengxue was also a person resisting fate.

Xiao Yan sighed in his heart:

"I have climbed to the peak and fallen to the bottom. Both have benefited me greatly!"

Xiao Yan looked at Tantai Mengxue calmly but with emotion: "Since Miss Tantai believes that this marriage contract is a shackle to you, then let it be dissolved!"

"Also, take back the treasures you brought, I, Xiao Yan, will not force anyone to stay, but I don't need this kind of charity!"

"Our two families owe each other nothing!"
