Chapter 110: Deciding to Break Off the Engagement
"That's right, he is the monster who is said to be the only one in a thousand years in the Jiama Empire, Xiao Ling's cousin. This time when he returned to the family, my grandfather asked me to find time to go there when I am free, to get engaged!" Thinking of this, a trace of sadness appeared on Nalan Yanran's soft and pretty face.
Yun Yun understood what was said. This recognition of kinship was fake, and the real purpose was to improve the relationship between the two families.
According to the intelligence from the Yunlan Sect, she has learned that Xiao Ling from the Xiao family is a Dou Wang powerful warrior and also a sixth-rank alchemist.
A teenage Dou Wang warrior, a sixth-rank alchemist, should not be underestimated even by the Yunlan Sect.
There are also rumors that Xiao Ling has subdued a strange fire and can refine a sect-breaking pill. The royal family's Jia Xingtian had previously asked him to refine one.
In fact, Yun Yun had heard of Xiao Ling's name a long time ago, but Xiao Ling's talent was too exaggerated at the time, so she thought it was just a rumor from some small place, and only sent two deacons from the Yunlan Sect to investigate the situation, and did not take it too seriously.
By the time the deacon confirmed the situation and reported the news back to Yunlan Sect, Xiao Ling had already gone to Canaan College. It was too late for Xiao Ling to take advantage of the opportunity to recruit him.
The situations of all the major forces in the Jiama Empire were not much different from that of the Yunlan Sect, and they missed out on an unparalleled genius in vain.
Regardless of what Yun Yun thought, Nalan Yanran in front of her struggled internally for a while before speaking in a firm tone: "Teacher, I want to cancel the engagement!"
Hearing this, Yun Yun was slightly surprised and looked at Nalan Yanran with a serious look in her eyes: "Have you thought it through? Now, all the forces in the empire want to get involved with the Xiao family, just because Xiao Ling is not only a sixth-grade alchemist, but also only fifteen years old. Your family will never agree to you breaking off the engagement."
"Besides, Xiao Yan has now solved the problem of not being able to practice. Judging from the talent he has shown so far, his future achievements will not be inferior to yours."
Nalan Yanran bit her lip tightly, her face full of stubbornness: "I have made up my mind to cancel the engagement since I knew about the engagement. Not to mention that the person I am engaged to is not Xiao Ling, who is famous in Jia Ma. Even if it is Xiao Ling, I will definitely cancel the engagement, not to mention that it is Xiao Yan who is not as good as Xiao Ling. I don't want to marry a man I don't know, and I don't want my marriage to become a bargaining chip for family power."
Yun Yun sighed, stepped forward and gently stroked Nalan Yanran's head, stared at her beloved disciple, and said softly: "In this case, then cancel the engagement. You are the young master of the Yunlan Sect. As long as you don't want to, no one in the Jiama Empire can force you."
Although Xiao Ling is also a target that the Yunlan Sect wants to win over, Yun Yun cares more about the feelings of her beloved disciple than winning over Xiao Ling.
In addition, the Xiao family seemed to be quite resistant to the Yunlan Sect, and the gifts previously sent to the Xiao family were also returned to the Yunlan Sect.
However, the Xiao family has now gained a firm foothold in the Holy City and is no longer the second-rate force it once was, so the etiquette of visiting the family should also be followed.
Hearing Yun Yun's answer, the worry on Nalan Yanran's face faded a little, "Thank you for your help, teacher. When are we going to cancel the engagement?"
After hearing Nalan Yanran's question and thinking for a moment, Yun Yun said, "Tomorrow, I will personally accompany you to the Xiao family to cancel the engagement."
I heard that Xiao Ling is currently in seclusion for cultivation, so going to his house to cancel the engagement now would save some trouble.
……
Adding to the Holy City, the Xiao family.
In Xiao Ling's courtyard.
On the lawn, Qinglin took out a few pills and fed them one by one to the snake pets in front of him.
Seeing that there were two two-headed fire snakes for each person, the six-winged black snake king on the side glared at him with some displeasure.
Just because this guy has two heads, the little master actually gave him two rations. I really want to bite one of his heads to pieces. Feeling that the six-winged black snake king's gaze on him was gradually becoming wrong, the two-headed fire spirit snake shrank its neck and looked at Qinglin with a look of help.
Touching the two heads of the two-headed fire snake, Qinglin showed a faint smile on his face, "You are a family, so you are not allowed to have conflicts."
Yao Chen, who was standing by, saw this scene and a pleased smile appeared on his face. Yao Chen liked Qing Lin very much. She had a strong talent for cultivation and was an obedient little girl. She treated him with respect.
"I'm just a little too attached to Xiao Ling. I have to mention him at least a dozen times every day." Thinking of this, Yao Chen shook his head helplessly. "Xiao Ling, not only has amazing talent in cultivation, but also has incredible luck. He actually met two talented girls, Qing'er and Xian'er, who have special physiques. Even I follow him. Could this guy be God's biological son?"
At this time, Xiao Yixian walked out of his training room and saw Qinglin and Yaochen in the courtyard. He greeted Qinglin first, and then walked to Yaochen's side, "Old Yao, I have to bother you for a while again."
"Xian'er girl, it seems that you have absorbed all the poison. Judging from the aura emanating from your body, it won't take long for you to break through to the Dou Ling realm. In terms of self-cultivation, my disciple is slightly inferior to you." Yao Chen smiled, stroking his beard.
Xiao Yixiang and Yao Chen can be considered as fellow patients. One needs Xiao Ling to refine a new body to revive, while the other needs Xiao Ling's help to solve the side effects of the evil poison body.
Now, because the Little Medical Fairy has activated her poisonous body, her long hair has turned white. She exudes an aura that keeps strangers away and has a mysterious beauty.
Knowing that Yao Chen was an eighth-grade alchemist during his lifetime, Xiao Yixian would ask him for some pharmacology knowledge from time to time. Although her body had been poisoned, Xiao Yixian still had a strong interest in medicine. If any member of the Xiao family was injured, Xiao Yixian would also help them treat them.
Sometimes, the Little Medical Fairy would sigh with emotion, thinking that she was originally just an ordinary doctor in Qingshan Town, but now following Xiao Ling, she could even consult the legendary eighth-grade top alchemist for knowledge. If it were more than half a year ago, such a thing would really be unthinkable.
Before, Little Medical Fairy had also asked Yao Chen about how to solve the side effects of the Evil Poison Body, and repeated the method Xiao Ling had mentioned.
Yao Chen gave Xiao Yixian a positive answer. Xiao Ling was now absorbing the second strange fire. When he was strong enough, he could also absorb his own bone spirit cold fire. Even if he could never encounter other strange fires in the future, it would be enough to gather the three most difficult strange fires among the prerequisites.
Over the past six months, the exchanges with Yao Chen, the continent's number one alchemist, have greatly broadened Little Medical Immortal's horizons, and she also understood how precious the various strange fires and materials that Xiao Ling had mentioned before were.
It's not that the previous owners of the evil poison body had never thought about how to solve the side effects of the evil poison body. After all, the method of making poison pills to solve the side effects of the poison body was also created by the previous owners of the evil poison body. It's a pity that the materials were hard to find and could not be gathered together, and eventually they could not control the toxins in their bodies and they died.
After learning that Yao Chen would give the Bone Spirit Cold Fire to Xiao Ling, Xiao Yixian's mood calmed down a lot. The most difficult condition had been met, so there was great hope of solving the side effects of the Evil Poison Body.
The current Xiao Yixian is improving her cultivation mainly because she wants to help Xiao Ling when she is strong enough. Although Xiao Ling took her away from Qingshan Town because of her talent, Xiao Ling collected materials for her, refined poison pills, and let her see the world outside Qingshan Town and understand the vastness of the Douqi Continent. Xiao Yixian is still very grateful to Xiao Ling.
Suddenly, Yao Chen seemed to have noticed something and looked towards Xiao Ling's training room.
Between heaven and earth, countless energies are rushing towards a green light cocoon in the training room.
The light cocoon seemed to be breathing, emitting flashes of light. As the light cocoon flickered, the surrounding energy of heaven and earth also rushed into it.
"Teacher, is the young master going to come out of seclusion?" Upon noticing this scene, Qing Lin cast a puzzled look at Yao Chen.
A faint smile appeared on Yao Chen's face, "Looking at the situation, that kid should be able to come out tomorrow."
Yao Chen casually released a soul barrier to cover up the movement, muttering to himself, "Such a big movement cannot be discovered by others."
