Nalan Yanran Apologizes, the Three-Year Agreement Begins

Outside the Xiao Clan's gate.

Yun Yun, who had just disembarked from the Flying Boat, said to Nalan Yanran:

"Yanran, I have asked you to come and apologize. Do you have any complaints?"

Nalan Yanran shook her head, her tone sincere. "This disciple has no complaints."

"I used the wrong methods to break off the engagement back then."

"Yanran, the fact that you think this way shows you've grown, and your master is very happy." Yun Yun nodded, then reflected, "Moreover, I also bear responsibility for the annulment of the engagement."

"We agreed to your annulment of the engagement, but we didn't make proper arrangements, which led to the Misty Cloud Sect using its power to suppress the Xiao Clan."

"Strictly speaking, my mistake as your mentor is no less than yours."

Nalan Yanran's voice was filled with emotion. "Master~"

Just then, a servant from the Xiao Clan approached. "Sect Master Yun, Young Sect Master Nalan, please come with me. The clan leader is waiting for you both in the main hall."

"Okay, lead the way." Yun Yun's voice was calm, but a strange sense of nervousness arose in her heart.

Xiao Zhan is Xiao Yan's father. Although she came to express her apology,...

"Xiao Yan probably won't reveal my relationship with him, don't be nervous!" Yun Yun bit her tongue to calm herself down.

She led Nalan Yanran and followed the Xiao Clan servants into the Xiao Clan.

On her way to the main hall, she passed by the Xiao Clan Square, sensing the cultivation levels of the Xiao Clan disciples and nodding frequently.

With ample Foundation Building Spirit Liquid and medicinal baths, the average cultivation level and physical strength of the Xiao Clan disciples are even superior to those of the scions of the great families in the Imperial Capital and the disciples of her Misty Cloud Sect.

Before long, they arrived at the main hall of the Xiao Clan.

Yun Yun led Nalan Yanran inside, her gaze immediately shifting to the young man sitting in the middle seat without any hesitation.

"Xiao Yan!" Nalan Yanran called out instinctively.

Yun Yun suppressed her emotions, showing no sign of surprise, and gracefully reminded Yanran, "Yanran, watch your attitude."

Nalan Yanran's gaze lingered on Xiao Yan's face, which had undergone multiple evolutions, and she thought to herself, "He's changed so much in three years."

"Yanran?" Yun Yun reminded her for the second time.

Nalan Yanran out of her daze, her cheeks flushing slightly with embarrassment.

She came to the Xiao Clan to apologize, but upon arrival she immediately stared at their faces; it was truly shameful.

Xiao Zhan sat in the main seat, glanced at Yun Yun, then at Nalan Yanran, and finally at his son, his expression strange.

Could it be that their son's affair with multiple women has been exposed, which is why the master and apprentice have come to their door demanding an explanation?

"Sect Master Yun, what is the purpose of Nalan's actions?" Xiao Zhan asked.

Yun Yun looked at Nalan Yanran: "Yanran, speak."

Nalan Yanran was surprised to see Xiao Yan there. She took a deep breath, cupped her hands, and said, "Uncle Xiao, I have come here to apologize for my inappropriate decision to annul the engagement three years ago."

"I'm sorry!" Nalan Yanran bowed deeply.

When the topic of annulling the engagement came up, Xiao Zhan's smile vanished, and he said coldly, "Niece Nalan, there's no need for that. Your uncle doesn't take this matter to heart."

"Your uncle respects your opinion. An engagement is inherently a constraint, and it's normal for you to want to break it off, but your actions were somewhat inappropriate."

"Tomorrow marks the Three-Year Agreement with Yan'er. After tomorrow, no matter what, this engagement will be officially terminated."

Nalan Yanran pursed her lips, offering no explanation.

The apology has been made, and the remorse has been conveyed.

After all, she didn't want to reinstate her engagement with Xiao Yan, so there was no need for her to be too humble.

"Uncle, Yanran take my leave now." Nalan Yanran said, glancing at Xiao Yan before turning and leaving.

Yun Yun nodded apologetically to Xiao Yan and Xiao Zhan, and then left.

After leaving the Xiao Clan,

Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran returned to the Flying Boat.

There are plenty of comfortable rooms on the Flying Boat, so there's no need to look for a hotel.

On the deck of the Flying Boat, after a moment of hesitation, Nalan Yanran suddenly spoke to Yun Yun, "Master, I want to take the Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill!"

"Hmm? Why did you suddenly have this idea?" Yun Yun frowned slightly.

"Didn't Master sense it? Xiao Yan's Dou Qi is definitely above mine. I have so many resources to supply me, and my cultivation is now at the Six-Star Da Dou Shi. Xiao Yan may have already reached the Peak Dou Master." Nalan Yanran's eyes flashed with surprise.

Since her defeat at the hands of Xiao Yan three years ago, she has worked even harder in her cultivation.

Pressure breeds motivation, and her cultivation level improved at an exceptionally fast pace.

On this basis, with the support of the sect's pills and two Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill, she was only Six-Star Da Dou Shi, while Xiao Yan was above her.

If she doesn't take the Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill to gamble, she will undoubtedly lose the Three-Year Agreement!

"Yanran, have you thought this through? Although the Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill has a chance to raise your cultivation by Three-Star, it also carries the risk of lowering your cultivation by One-Star to two stars. Your current cultivation is still quite high, so why insist on comparing yourself to Xiao Yan?" Yun Yun advised.

Nalan Yanran said with a determined look in her eyes, "Master, I've waited three years for this rematch with Xiao Yan. I don't want to lose again! Even if I have to lose, I'll fight to the very end!"

"So please, Master, give me the elixir!"

Yun Yun shook her head and ultimately didn't try to persuade her further.

She knew Xiao Yan's true strength; let alone Nalan Yanran, even if she herself went up against him, she would definitely not be his match.

However, since Nalan Yanran insisted on this, let's go along with it. At least she tried, and there won't be any lingering resentment.

Yun Yun took out a jade bottle containing the Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill and handed it to Nalan Yanran.

Nalan Yanran accepted the pills and went into her room.

Time flew by, and the next day arrived.

The Wutan City is exceptionally lively today.

Flying Boat were parked outside the city, where most of the top experts of the Jia Ma Empire had arrived.

Xiao Clan Square.

Xiao Zhan greeted the arriving guests and led them to their seats in the VIP section.

Imperial Family Guardian Jia Xingtian, Alchemist Guild Master Fama, Ice Emperor Hai Bodong, Mittel Family Patriarch Mittel Teng Shan...

Misty Cloud Sect Master Yun Yun Sect; Misty Cloud Sect Yun Leng Sect; Elder Yun Jing...

Nalan Jie, the head of the Nalan Family, Nalan Yanran Su, the father of Nalan Su.

Xiao Zhan greeted the first few people with a friendly attitude and a smile.

His smile faded slightly when facing the Misty Cloud Sect members, but he still maintained basic courtesy.

Xiao Zhan didn't even personally receive Nalan Jie and his son Nalan Su; he simply had the Xiao Clan's eldest elder handle the reception.

This attitude was made clear to everyone, but no one said anything.

After all, if they were in the same situation, they might not be as magnanimous as Xiao Zhan.

Soon, the VIP seats and audience seats were filled with people who had been invited or had come specifically to hear about the event.

Today's Three-Year Agreement has undoubtedly become the focus of the entire Wutan City.

The Xiao Clan's gate was wide open.

In the center of the Square, a giant ruler stood on the ground, and Xiao Yan leaned against it, waiting quietly.

The Three-Year Agreement no longer stirred much emotion in him.

For him, this Three-Year Agreement is now nothing more than a farewell to himself, an agreement to completely settle his grudges with Nalan Yanran.
