Strange Nalan Yanran

Xiao Yan secretly scanned the Nalan Family compound and noticed that many areas were guarded by Secret Guard. Anyone who dared to cause trouble would be attacked instantly. "The defenses are indeed very tight."

Just as Xiao Yan was observing the Nalan Family, Xiao Tian activated the system: "System Check-in."

[Ding! Successfully checked in at the Nalan Family in Gama Holy City, and received: 1 piece of experience for fusing Xiao Yan's Angry Buddha Lotus Flame.]

"Hmm? That's good. I was originally going to ask Xiao Yan if he had come up with this ultimate move yet, but if he hasn't, then I'll be the one who created it."

Xiao Tian was very satisfied with the reward. He had wanted to create a fusion of his Spirit Thunder before, but it was quite difficult to control and he could never seem to fuse it properly.

Led by a maid, Xiao Tian and his companion slowly approached the hall. Through the door, they could faintly hear conversations inside. As soon as the door was pushed open, the conversations inside stopped abruptly, and everyone turned to look at the doorway in unison.

Xiao Tian and Xiao Yan glanced around. There were about a dozen Third Grade Alchemist sitting inside, most of them middle-aged, with a few being elderly.

While Xiao Tian and his companion were observing them, the people inside the hall were also observing Xiao Tian.

When they saw Xiao Tian's appearance and his identity Third Grade Alchemist, a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes.

When their gazes turned to Xiao Yan Xiao Yan, they saw his status as Second Grade Alchemist and curiously scanned Xiao Yan, wondering why a Second Grade Alchemist was qualified to enter this place.

Xiao Tian and Xiao Yan ignored the other Alchemist ' stares and instead looked at a middle-aged man sitting imposingly in the head seat of the hall. His eyes gleamed with an air of authority, and he was the only one present who wasn't wearing Alchemist's robe.

Xiao Tian knew that this was Nalan Su, the Clan Leader of the Nalan Family who almost became Xiao Yan's father-in-law, and also Nalan Yanran's father.

"Young brothers, I am Nalan Su from the Nalan Family. May I ask your esteemed names?"

Nalan Su was taken aback when he saw that the two people who walked in looked so young, but he quickly recovered, stood up and cupped his hands in greeting to Xiao Tian and the other person.

Upon hearing this name, Xiao Yan's hands trembled slightly within his sleeves, and the corner of his eye twitched involuntarily.

"Yan Xiao, this is my senior brother, Jiang Feng."

Suppressing some inexplicable emotions, Xiao Yan spoke, his Xiao Yan now altered by the elixir.

"We came here on Miss Ya Fei's recommendation to try and detoxify Old Master Nalan."

"Hehe, so it was recommended by my niece Ya Fei. Please take a seat."

Upon hearing that it was Consort Ya Fei who had recommended him, Nalan Su nodded in realization and said with a smile.

Xiao Tian and Xiao Yan sat down in the two empty seats.

Just after the two sat down, a woman dressed in a moon-white robe walked in. Xiao Yan and Xiao Tian were familiar with this woman; it was Nalan Yanran. Now, Nalan Yanran had shed her youthful naiveté and grown into a graceful and beautiful young woman with an even more outstanding appearance.

However, it still falls short compared to Medusa Cloud Rhyme.

Xiao Yan looked at the beautiful woman who had entered, his hands, hidden in his sleeves, clenched tightly. Although he had made plans beforehand, he still couldn't remain as calm and collected as he had imagined when he actually saw her.

Nalan Yanran paused briefly as she passed Xiao Yan, gave him a deep look, and then continued walking.

Although the action was subtle, several people in the hall still noticed it.

Then Nalan Yanran shifted her gaze to Xiao Tian beside Xiao Yan. When she saw the Third Grade Alchemist on his chest, she was surprised. "So young, and already Third Rank alchemist. It seems Liu Ling has a rival."

Nalan Yanran walked straight to Nalan Su's side and stood quietly, but her gaze kept subtly observing Xiao Yan.

"I felt that Nalan Yanran's expression was a little strange just now. Did she discover something?"

Xiao Yan gently moved closer to Xiao Tian, frowning as he asked.

"It shouldn't be that. Given your current state, even with my abilities, I might not be able to tell the difference if I didn't know. Let alone her, it's probably for other reasons."

Xiao Tian also noticed Nalan Yanran's strange behavior, but with Xiao Yan Yao Lao's cover, it was impossible for Nalan Yanran, with her Da Dou Shi strength, to see through it.

Although Xiao Yan was filled with doubt and couldn't figure out the reason, he was worried that if she discovered his identity, she would use it to make excuses and renege on her promise after he recovered.

"No need to pay too much attention to them. Your only goal is the Seven Illusory Green Spirit Saliva. Nothing else matters. If they try to renege on their promise, we'll just flatten their place and take it from them."

Having lived with his younger brother for over a decade, Xiao Tian naturally knew what he was thinking and offered a sharp, comforting remark.

"Yan Er, don't worry. Although your teacher is weak, I can still take action. A half-crippled Dou Wang and a few Dou Ling are nothing to worry about."

The voice of the Yao Lao echoed in Xiao Yan's mind. He thought of how he had dominated the Central State for decades and no one had ever renege on their debts to him.

After hearing what Xiao Tian and Yao Lao said, Xiao Yan stopped thinking about it.

Yes, my only goal is to obtain the Seven Illusory Green Spirit Saliva to heal my teacher; everything else can wait until later.

Nalan Su, seated at the head of the table, stood up, cupped his hands, and said loudly, "Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to be here. Master Gu He once said that only Heavenly Flames could cure the Branding Poison on my father's body, but Alchemist possess Heavenly Flames are too rare. My Nalan Family has no other way, so we can only try another method."

"You are all top-tier Alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire, each possessing unique skills."

Nalan Su addressed the side door, saying, "Please, everyone, go in one by one and try. If you successfully cure the poison, the promised reward will be given immediately."

After Nalan Su finished speaking, a white-haired Alchemist volunteered to go in and give it a try.

About ten minutes later, the old man came out shaking his head and sighing, "Clan Leader Nalan, I have tried more than a dozen antidotes, but none of them have worked. This poison is simply too stubborn."

Subsequently, other Alchemist also went in one by one to try, but all of them came out unsuccessful.

Seeing that more than ten Alchemist had failed, her beautiful eyes reddened slightly, she bit her lip tightly, and looked dejected.

Seeing that everyone else had failed, leaving only two young Alchemist, Nalan Su couldn't help but sigh and forced a smile, "Alas, none of you have been able to solve this. It seems my father was destined for this calamity. Although we have failed, I will still offer you all a generous reward."

"I wonder if this young man would be willing to go in and give it a try?"

Nalan Su looked at Xiao Tian with hopeful eyes. At present, Xiao Tian was the last remaining Third Grade Alchemist and the last hope.

"Perhaps my junior brother could give it a try regarding Old Master Nalan's problem."

Xiao Tian showed no intention of making a move, but instead lazily pointed at Xiao Yan and spoke.

"Your junior brother?" Nalan Su was stunned when he saw that Xiao Tian did not make a move but instead recommended his junior brother, who was only Second Grade Alchemist.

The atmosphere around them became eerie and heavy, and everyone looked at Xiao Tian Yan in the direction Xiao Yan was pointing.
