"The emblem of the royal family..." Staring at the unknown beast emblem, Xiao Yan murmured in a low voice. As a person from the Jia Ma Empire, he could know about the emblem of the Jia Ma Imperial Family.
Around the carriage, there were about a dozen people wrapped in black robes accompanying them. His eyes swept over these Black-robed Figure, and Xiao Yan's pupils shrank. In his perception, these dozen Black-robed Figure actually gave him a sense of danger.
"As expected of the Jia Ma Empire royal family, their strength cannot be underestimated." Xiao Yan was slightly amazed in his heart, and turned his gaze to the car curtain.
A Black-robed Figure stepped forward and respectfully lifted the car curtain. When Black-robed Figure lifted the car curtain, Xiao Yan clearly sensed that other Black-robed Figures around him, in the subtle movement, has quickly formed a small circle, protecting the carriage in the middle. At the same time, sharp eyes like eagles shot out from the black robe, and then scanned the surrounding crowded people back and forth.
Under the gaze of everyone around, a delicate hand as white as jade stretched out from the car curtain, elegantly holding the handle of the car door, and then, a graceful silhouette slowly walked out and appeared in everyone's sight.
The person who appeared was wearing a purple dress with silver patterns. Her exquisite appearance, influenced by the royal family, revealed a hint of innate nobility. Her slender waist was tied with a purple belt, which showed her Xiaoman waist to the fullest. She did not seem to be very old, and she looked the same as Xiao Yan before she was disguised. She looked almost the same, with a little smile on her pretty face, which seemed a bit elegant and peaceful. However, every time she glanced around, Xiao Yan found that this seemingly ladylike girl had some Gu Ling weird smile flashing in her watery eyes. Obviously, this was not a quiet person as she appeared.
"Sure enough, women can't just look at the surface..." Shaking his head with a wry smile, Xiao Yan withdrew his gaze and no longer looked at this girl who seemed to have an unusual identity.
"Tsk, tsk, what a beautiful little girl..." Looking at the girl in the purple skirt who appeared, the crowd around her suddenly burst into cheers, and some fiery gazes were quickly cast towards her. Although the girl had a noble status, there seemed to be nothing wrong with taking advantage of the crowd and being a little more unrestrained in her eyes.
"Hey, this is Little Princess among the Jia Ma Imperial Family. I heard that her teacher is the vice-president Chemir Grandmaster. She appears here this time. She must be here for Alchemist Grand Meeting." There were many knowledgeable people in the crowd. After seeing the girl's appearance, they recognized her identity.
"She doesn't seem to be very old, does she? She can also come to compete for the conference?"
"Tch, Little Princess's talent in alchemy is even praised by the president. Even though she is young, I heard that she was promoted to the third grade alchemist as early as half a year ago..."
"Uh..." Hearing this, the surrounding crowd suddenly burst into an uproar. Some of the older, middle-aged alchemists all blushed and raised their arms, embarrassingly covering the rank badges on their chests.
Squeezing in the crowd, listening to the conversation of those people, surprise flashed across Xiao Yan's face. He once again turned his attention to the girl in purple dress who was facing the guild under the protection of Black-robed Figure. He thought to himself, "Sure enough, the mountains are higher than the other. I didn't expect that this girl who looks so weak is actually a third-level alchemist..."
However, although he was amazed in his heart, Xiao Yan was not too surprised. With the strong foundation of the Gama royal family, as long as this little princess has the most basic talent to become an alchemist, then they can use those piles of materials to easily smash her into a high-level alchemist. What's more, it seems that this little princess's talent for alchemy is quite good, so such an achievement is expected.
Under the protection of the group of Black-robed Figure who had a cold aura around their bodies, the girl in the purple skirt passed through the crowded crowd without any hindrance, and then walked into the Alchemist Guild with a swagger.
As the girl's seemingly elegant back disappeared from sight, Xiao Yan turned around and continued to wander around the Jiama Empire Imperial City.
At the same time, several carriages with the Cloud Mist Sect flags secretly drove away from Imperial City and quickly headed in the direction of Wutan City.
In the carriage at the front, there is an old man with gloomy eyes. He is Misty Cloud Sect Great Elder.
Recalling the instructions given by the old sect leader when he met on the mountain face not long ago, Yun Leng couldn't help but murmur to himself, "Xiao Family, if I want to blame you, it's your bad luck and being targeted by such a big force!"
Early the next morning, Alchemist Grand Meeting officially started at the Jiama Empire Imperial City, and countless people rushed to the scene to watch the game.
People from the royal family, Alchemist Guild, Cloud Mist Sect all participated, and even Nalan Yanran also played Cloud Mist Sect and sat in the audience to watch this competition.
Of course, this time, as the only fifth-grade alchemist, Little Doctor Immortal, coupled with her young appearance, immediately became the most popular candidate for the championship! Not one of them!
As for Xiao Yan and Qing Lin, they were sitting in the audience and cheering for Little Doctor Immortal.
However, at this moment, an old voice directly sounded in Xiao Yan's mind through special means, "Xiao Yanzi, the people of the Cloud Mist Sect went to Wutan City and prepared to attack Xiao Family, but they were all captured by your father and the others."
"What I want to remind you is that I can feel the aura of those Soul Hall people in these people. It seems that the Soul Hall people have set their sights on you Xiao Family."
"You kid should be more careful when you're out there."
Hearing Old Ya's voice transmission, Xiao Yan couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly, then turned his head and looked directly in the direction of the Cloud Mist Sect.
"It seems that the time to send the third favor will come soon."
Not long after, the preliminary round of the competition ended, and Little Doctor Immortal undoubtedly became one of the few who stood out in the preliminary round of this alchemist competition.
Not long after the preliminary round of the competition, when Xiao Yan brought Qing Lin to the private room specially prepared by the Alchemist Guild for Little Doctor Immortal, he happened to see a girl handing an invitation to Little Doctor Immortal who was sitting at the table.
Seeing Xiao Yan's arrival, Little Doctor Immortal's little face suddenly showed a happy look.
"Xiao Yan, how was my performance today?"
Although he was asking, Little Doctor Immortal's little face had an expression of "Come on, praise me", which directly exposed Little Doctor Immortal's true purpose.
"Great!"
"Little Doctor Immortal sister is the most powerful!"
Xiao Yan and Qing Lin did not hesitate to praise them, and Little Doctor Immortal immediately became even more happy after hearing this.
However, when Xiao Yan and Qing Lin sat down, Little Doctor Immortal found one of the invitations from the pile on the table and faced Xiao Yan shook his head and said, "Xiao Yan, Nalan Family, on the pretext that young master Nalan Yanran returned to the family to hold a celebration dinner, he invited many disciples from powerful forces and some young geniuses to attend."
"As a fifth-grade alchemist, I am also among those invited."
"Would you like to go to this dinner together tonight?"
"Nalan Family..." Xiao Yan pondered for a moment, and finally nodded, "Okay, let's go and visit tonight. After all, Old Master Nalan and my grandfather have an irreconcilable relationship. The matters of the younger generation belong to the younger generation, and Old Master Nalan still has to pay his respects."
Hearing what Xiao Yan said, the two girls Little Doctor Immortal and Qing Lin also nodded in agreement.
Late afternoon.
The sky was already dark at this time, but in the Nalan Family, the lights were still brightly lit, and clansmen coming and going were shuttling on the road, just like a market.
Arriving at the gate of the Nalan Family, after handing over the invitation, a servant led Xiao Yan, Little Doctor Immortal, and Qing Lin toward the mansion.
After walking through several paths, Nalan Family's spacious hall came into view again. Suddenly, bursts of loud laughter mixed with some music came from the hall, which made Xiao Yan, who was so quiet, frown slightly.
The two girls Little Doctor Immortal and Qing Lin were also slightly uncomfortable.
As I approached the hall, I saw many people sitting and standing in the spacious hall, laughing and chatting with each other, making it look like a happy party.
Standing by the door, Xiao Yan glanced across the hall, not only seeing the Liu Ling who saw Alchemist Grand Meeting today and the Little Princess, but also Ya Fei was also among them. At this moment, she was wearing a red tight-fitting cheongsam and a snow-white fox fur shawl, which added a bit of grace and elegance to her. Her graceful and charming curves made many men in the hall secretly cast their gazes over her.
"Tsk, it's really lively."
Looking at the bustling hall, Xiao Yan clicked his tongue, and the two girls Little Doctor Immortal and Qing Lin also looked at the lobby with curious faces.
However, at this moment, a soft female voice suddenly came from the side. "Little Doctor Immortal Grandmaster, since you are here, please go in and have a rest."
Hearing the sound, Xiao Yan all turned their heads, just in time to see a delicate beauty emerging from the pillar. Suddenly, Little Doctor Immortal and Qing Lin turned their heads to look at Xiao Yan.
If the information they know is correct, this person should be Xiao Yan's former fiancée, right?
Thinking of the past stories between these two people, Little Doctor Immortal and Qing Lin's beautiful eyes revealed a hint of gossip uncontrollably.
The beauty who appeared next to the pillar was naturally Nalan Family's jewel, Nalan Yanran. She was standing pretty next to the pillar, with a soft smile on her exquisite face. The wide-sleeved moon-white dress that only Cloud Mist Sect disciples could wear on her body occasionally highlighted the graceful curves underneath. Comparing her figure, she seemed to be no less inferior to Ya Fei, but their temperaments were completely different.
However, at this moment, Nalan Yanran obviously recognized Xiao Yan, and the smile on his pretty face was a little frozen.
"You...Xiao Yan?! Why are you here?!"
Seeing this, Little Doctor Immortal immediately said, "Xiao Yan is my young master, isn't that okay?"
Hearing Little Doctor Immortal's words, Nalan Yanran was shocked all over, and his beautiful eyes widened with disbelief on his face.
"Okay, Little Doctor Immortal, you can take Qing Lin inside to play first." Xiao Yan immediately saw the two girls Little Doctor Immortal and Qing Lin's eyes ready to gossip, and directly drove them away. Then he looked at Nalan Yanran and chuckled, "What? You're not welcome?"
Looking at Nalan Yanran today, Xiao Yan has to admit that in the past six months, she has indeed transformed from the delicate girl back then into a mature woman with a refined temperament. It would not be surprising if such a woman could be chased by thousands of men.
Nalan Yanran hesitated for a moment, and finally turned sideways to Xiao Yan to make an invitation, "Okay, please come in."
Then, the two of them walked side by side into the hall.
Smelling the fragrance lingering around him, Xiao Yan moved his steps to the other side imperceptibly. However, at this moment, a numb chuckle that made the man's legs weak suddenly sounded behind the two of them.
"Haha, Miss Nalan, there are many people waiting for you inside, but you are here chatting leisurely with others."
Hearing this familiar laughter, Xiao Yan turned his head and looked at the charming woman who was lazily leaning against the door with a glass of red wine in her hands. Her cold face was slightly thawed.
"Hi, Xiao Yan, we meet again." Ya Fei walked up with a smile, and raised the transparent wine glass in Yang Yu's hand at Xiao Yan. His narrow beautiful eyes revealed a cunningness like a vixen.
"It's really strange. I didn't expect to see you Xiao Yan here."
Xiao Yan also smiled, but before Xiao Yan could speak, Nalan Yanran next to him took a step forward,
"What? Xiao Yan and Miss Ya Fei are very familiar?"
Hearing Ya Fei's greeting, Nalan Yanran raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.
"Xiao Yan and I have known each other for several years, and we have a pretty good relationship." Ya Fei smiled sweetly. His eyes flickered to Xiao Yan, and he said with a smile, "You think so? Mr. Xiao Yan? Young Master?"
Young Master?! Hearing this word, Nalan Yanran's eyes became even more curious!
Shrugging, Xiao Yan took the wine glass from Ya Fei's hand, then drank it down under the latter's pretty face that was slightly blushing, and said with a smile, "Why are you here?"
Taking the wine glass from Xiao Yan's hand, Ya Fei said with a blushing face, "You are so rude..."
Xiao Yan looked at Ya Fei's rosy cheeks with a smile. The latter's charming charm was really heart-warming. No wonder at Wutan City, countless men rushed to the auction house to get a glimpse of Ya Fei's face.
Nalan Yanran stood aside, looking at the two people who were flirting, with a slightly unnatural expression on their delicate cheeks.
What's going on with this feeling of being bullied?!
"Xiao Yan, Miss Ya Fei, you guys can chat, I'll go in first, sorry." She bowed slightly to the two of them, and Nalan Yanran turned around and walked into the hall, leaving behind a moving figure of the two of them.
"Young master also likes to eat sister's tofu..." As soon as Nalan Yanran left, Yafei raised her eyebrows slightly and said angrily to Xiao Yan.
His eyes swept over Ya Fei's cheeks, and finally stopped on the alluring red lips. Thinking of how charming they were drinking a glass of wine together before, Xiao Yan's lips revealed a slight smile.
