A duel in three days

Han Yue and Han Xue were both dressed in moon-white robes, and their extremely similar faces made them look like twins. Hong Chen naturally saw them immediately, and his eyes revealed a look of covetousness.

Han Xue also noticed the young man in front of her. When she saw Hong Chen's lustful expression, she felt disgusted. Han Yue, on the other hand, didn't even glance at Hong Chen, as if he didn't exist.

Han Chi looked at Han Yue and Han Xue and asked, "Why are you two out here?"

Han Yue said softly, "The Hong Family is just talking about us, isn't they? The two of us came out to hear what plan the Hong Family has come up with to annex our Han Family."

Hong Chen looked at Han Yue and said, "Sister Han Yue, you're wrong about that. In North Sky City, you two sisters are the beauties of North Sky City. Countless men want to marry you both, but none of them have my strength. I, Hong Chen, am the number one genius in North Sky City, and now I am an inner disciple of the Wind Thunder Northern Pavilion. In North Sky City, who is worthy of you?"

Hearing Hong Chen's arrogant words, Han Xue couldn't help but sneer, "Hong Chen, let me give you a piece of advice: in this world, there are always people more capable than you, and you shouldn't think you can be so arrogant just because you're strong!"

Hong Chen glanced at Han Xue and said, "Of course, Hong Chen 've learned my lesson. But right now, I'm afraid no one has the talent to defeat me. I think your Han Family should seriously consider how to handle the marriage alliance between the Hong Family and the Han Family!"

Han Xue's face flushed red with anger at Hong Chen's nonchalant attitude, but she didn't know what to say. Although Xiao Yan's strength and talent were greater than Hong Chen's, Han Xue didn't want to involve Xiao Yan.

In the backyard, Xiao Yan had just finished refining several bottles of Sixth Grade Pills when he saw Yun Yun and the others, including Nalan Yanran, gathered there, seemingly listening to something. He couldn't help but chuckle and ask, "What are you all doing here?"

Everyone turned to look, Nalan Yanran's eyes lit up with surprise. "That's right! The best person to solve the Han Family's current predicament is right in front of us!"

Xiao Yi Xian looked at Xiao Yan, who seemed a little stunned, and chuckled, saying, "As long as you don't mind, Yan Ran, I think Xiao Yan is quite suitable to solve this predicament!"

Xiao Yan hadn't reacted yet, and looked at everyone, saying, "What are you all talking about? I don't understand at all!"

Nalan Yanran waved her hand and said, "No problem at all, we're just helping out in the Han Family!"

Nalan Yanran then shared her thoughts with Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan frowned slightly and asked, "Will this work?"

"Absolutely! The young master of the Hong Family is only Seven-Star Dou Huang. If I were a man, I would have gone up against him myself!" Nalan Yanran's words immediately made all the women laugh, while Xiao Yan playfully slapped her on the head.

"You're just talking nonsense!" Xiao Yan glared at Nalan Yanran before walking outside.

Everyone was watching the show from behind, and those in the front hall were also surprised that Xiao Yan would come in at this time. When Hong Chen saw Xiao Yan, his face immediately darkened, and Hong Li also narrowed his eyes slightly. The Hong Family's guards had discovered that the Han Family had brought back several people when Han Yue returned, and this young man was one of them.

"Could this be the Sixth Grade Alchemist from the Han Family?" A sense of unease welled up in Hong Li's heart, because Xiao Yan was too young!

Han Chi, Han Lin, and the others were also surprised that Xiao Yan would appear at this time. Han Yue and Han Xue both glanced at Xiao Yan, a subtle hint flashing in their eyes, but Xiao Yan seemed not to notice, and went straight to Han Chi, saying, "Uncle Han, all the Sixth Grade Pills have been refined. Take a look!"

Hong Li's pupils contracted slightly. The alchemist from the Han Family really was this young man. Meanwhile, Elder Shen Yun, who had been standing calmly to the side, opened his eyes and looked at Xiao Yan, his brows furrowing slightly. He sensed a danger emanating from this young man—he was Five-Star Dou Zong! He chuckled inwardly, "He's getting more and more sensitive. Just a greenhorn, but it seems he's the Sixth Grade Alchemist. This is going to be troublesome!"

Elder Shen Yun had initially thought that the Sixth Grade Alchemist from the Han Family was an old man or someone who had been famous for a long time, but now it seemed that this was not the case. If this person was young, he must have a teacher behind him. If he could teach Sixth Grade Alchemist, his own alchemy skills must have reached the Eighth-Tier!

Eighth-grade Alchemist is already Alchemy Grandmaster. Even the Pavilion Master of the Wind Thunder Pavilion would treat someone of this level with respect, let alone someone who is just a member of the Wind Thunder Northern Pavilion.

Hong Chen, oblivious to the unusual behavior of his father and Elder Yun, glared at Xiao Yan and demanded sharply, "Who are you? What are you doing at the Han Family?"

Xiao Yan looked over upon hearing the voice, frowned slightly, and asked, "Are you from the Han Family?"

Hong Chen was slightly taken aback and said, "I am Hong Chen, the young master of the Hong Family!"

Xiao Yan said indifferently, "The Hong Family? Then why are you interfering in the Han Family's affairs? Is it any of your business?"

"You!" Hong Chen stared at Xiao Yan with cold eyes, and his thunderous Dou Qi erupted from his body, causing the atmosphere in the entire hall to ripple slightly!

Hong Li pulled Hong Chen back and said in a low voice, "Chen'er, don't cause trouble here!"

Han Chi and Han Lin's faces remained completely gloomy. Hong Li dared not guarantee that causing trouble here would offend the Han Family. He had not forgotten that the Han Family still had an ancestor alive, a powerful figure no weaker than Five-Star Dou Zong!

Hong Chen calmed down slightly. Xiao Yan glanced at Hong Chen and said, "I like your arrogant attitude, but if this is all the strength your Hong Family's young master has, then I think the Hong Family's strength isn't that great!"

At this, not only Hong Chen, but even Hong Li, had a gloomy expression and coldly shouted, "Young man, don't be too arrogant!"

Hong Chen then said, "Alright, since you put it that way, how about we have a contest? We'll use the Han Family as the stake. If I win, the Han Family sisters will be mine. If you win, the Hong Family and the Han Family will make peace, and my Hong Family will never again harm the Han Family's interests, nor will the Wind Thunder Northern Pavilion interfere. But if your Han Family refuses the challenge, I guarantee that the Han Family will have no place in North Sky City!"

Just as Xiao Yan was about to speak, Han Yue grabbed him. Hong Chen saw Xiao Yan Han Yue's small hand holding Xiao Yan's and his killing intent surged. At that moment, he wanted to kill Xiao Yan!

"Our Han Family agrees!" Han Yue said directly.

Hong Chen was overjoyed and said, "Great! Then let's set the time for three days from now. See you at the arena!"

Then Hong Li, Hong Chen, and Elder Yun turned around and left the Han Family.

Xiao Yan turned to Han Yue and teased, "You're so trusting, you just agreed right away!"

Han Yue chuckled softly and said, "Of course. After being at the Jia Nan Academy for so long, do you think I don't know your strength?"
