Led by the Han Sisters, Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian walked through the elegant courtyard corridors and headed towards the reception room of the Han Family Manor.

As you approach the reception room, you can faintly hear whispers and footsteps coming from inside.

When they stepped into the spacious and bright reception room, there were already quite a few people waiting inside.

Seated at the head of the table was a dignified middle-aged man dressed in a brocade robe, exuding a calm and reserved aura. He was Han Yue's father and the current head of the Han Family — Han Chi.

His strength has only just reached the level of Seven-Star Dou Emperor. He might be considered a powerful figure in the Northwest Continent, but in the Northern Region of the Central Plains, he can only be considered a mid-level force.

Several elders and core members of the Han Family were also seated in the hall. Their eyes were all focused on Han Yue, who had just entered, and the two distinguished strangers behind her.

When everyone realized that Han Yue's aura had reached the peak of Five-Star Dou Wang, they were all surprised.

But then came a relieved smile.

It seems this girl hasn't wasted a single moment at the academy these past years. If this continues, the Han Family might produce another High-Level Dou Emperor within ten years.

"Father!"

When Han Yue saw her father, a warm smile bloomed on her usually cold face, and she quickly stepped forward.

"Moon!"

Han Chi was clearly a doting father. When he saw his daughter return from the Jia Nan Academy, his usually stern face softened instantly, and he affectionately ruffled her hair.

In front of her boyfriend, Han Yue's head was being ruffled by her father like a little girl. Her usually cool and aloof face flushed slightly, and she couldn't help but steal a glance at Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan's senses were incredibly sharp; he immediately noticed Han Yue's subtle movement and winked at her.

Han Yue's face turned even redder.

Han Chi's smile froze when he noticed his daughter exchanging glances with the blond-haired man.

His gaze then fell on Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian behind Han Yue, with a hint of scrutiny and inquiry.

But when he realized that he couldn't see through their strength at all, a sense of seriousness and vigilance immediately arose in his heart.

"Moon, who are these two?"

His expression remained unchanged; he simply resumed the gentle smile that had been on his face before and asked.

Upon hearing this, before Han Yue could explain, Han Xue playfully jumped to Han Chi's side, pointed at Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian, and introduced them in a clear voice:

"Father, this is Senior Xiao Yan, whom my sister often mentions in her letters. He's my sister's boyfriend! This is Sister Xiao Yi Xian, my sister's good friend from the Jia Nan Academy. My brother-in-law is such a kind person; he gave me so many precious pills as soon as we met!"

As she spoke, she took out the jade bottle she had put in her Storage Ring and shook it with a smile.

Han Xue's words were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, immediately causing a slight commotion in the hall.

The elders and core members looked at Xiao Yan in a completely different way.

Apart from Han Chi and Han Tian, no one else knew what Han Yue said in her letters to her family, or even some private matters she only shared with her younger sister, Han Xue. Even Han Chi and Han Tian were unaware that Han Yue had already been with Xiao Yan while she was at the academy.

But they heard Han Xue's words clearly.

Han Yue's boyfriend is even referred to as her brother-in-law by Han Xue?

This young man is quite something.

Han Chi's gaze lingered on Xiao Yan for a longer time.

As Seven-Star Dou Emperor, he couldn't discern Xiao Yan's strength at all; in fact, in his perception, Xiao Yan was just an ordinary, unremarkable person.

However, in the letters Han Yue wrote to him over the years, she did mention this exceptionally talented "Senior Xiao Yan," and her words were full of praise for him.

As a freshman, he quickly entered the Inner Academy of the Jia Nan Academy, and the Student Union he established became the most powerful force among the students of the Inner Academy Jia Nan Academy. He even participated in the formulation and maintenance of the academy's rules.

Xiao Yan himself already possessed the Dou Wang level of cultivation and the strength to rival Dou Huang expert while still at the academy.

Of course, Han Chi didn't quite believe that.

Because it was truly outrageous, beyond his comprehension.

It wasn't that he didn't want to believe his daughter; he simply couldn't believe such a thing could actually happen.

Xiao Yan didn't put on airs in front of his girlfriend's family. With a gentle smile, he stepped forward and bowed to Han Chi, who was seated at the head of the table.

"Junior Xiao Yan greets Uncle Han and all the elders of the Han Family. I apologize for my impoliteness in coming to visit."

Xiao Yi Xian also bowed slightly, following Xiao Yan's example.

"Xiao Yi Xian greets Uncle Han."

In terms of age, she is indeed the younger one, and Han Yue is her good friend.

However, apart from Han Yue's immediate family, no one else in the Han Family is important enough to her that she, a Dou Zun expert, would have to treat them with courtesy.

To put it bluntly, if she were to reveal her aura directly, everyone present would probably have to bow to her.

After all, in Central Plains, Dou Zun expert is undoubtedly someone who stands at the very top of the pyramid.

"My two young friends, there's no need for such formalities. You were Yue'er's seniors at the Jia Nan Academy and took good care of her. It should be me, her father, who thanking you."

Han Chi spoke in a deep, loud voice.

Xiao Yan smiled slightly:

"Uncle Han, you flatter me. Yue'er is exceptionally intelligent and an outstanding elite in the academy. It is only natural for me to know and support her. I dare not accept the word 'care'. My purpose in accompanying Yue'er home this time is to personally pay my respects to my elders and express my gratitude."

As he spoke, Xiao Yan flipped his hand, and a dozen exquisite jade boxes appeared in his palm.

The moment the jade box appeared, a refreshing medicinal fragrance filled the hall, instantly moving everyone present.

"Since this is your first visit, I have prepared a small gift, which is of little importance." Xiao Yan placed more than a dozen jade boxes directly on the table next to Han Chi's seat. "This Sect Breaking Pill may be of some help to Uncle Han in breaking through his bottleneck in the future; as for these Imperial Extreme Pills and Dou Ling Pill, their effects are self-evident. There are also some pills for treating injuries and assisting cultivation, which I will not go into detail about. Uncle Han can examine them himself."

"Hiss!"

As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, a series of suppressed gasps filled the hall.

Seventh-Grade Sect Breaking Pill?!

This is a precious pill that can help Peak Dou Emperor break through to the Dou Zong realm!

As for the Imperial Extreme Pill and the Dou Ling Pill, there's no need to elaborate; who present doesn't know the effects of these pills?

Han Chi's hand trembled slightly when he picked up the box of Sect Breaking Pill.

His gaze towards Xiao Yan completely changed, filled with shock and disbelief.

Being able to casually offer Seventh-Grade pill as a greeting gift goes beyond simple wealth or a powerful background!

This requires extremely high Alchemy or unimaginable resources and status!

Then, recalling his daughter's letter mentioning that Xiao Yan was not only incredibly powerful but also an extremely skilled alchemist, his opinion of Xiao Yan instantly rose to an unparalleled level.

Han Yue had already retreated to Xiao Yan's side, watching him calmly deal with his family and the stunning gift he casually produced that amazed everyone present. Her heart was filled with sweetness and pride, her cheeks slightly flushed, and her eyes, which she secretly glanced at Xiao Yan, were full of tenderness.

Han Chi took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart, and a very warm smile, even tinged with respect, appeared on his face:

"Xiao Yan, this... this gift is far too precious!"

"Uncle, please don't take it to heart." Xiao Yan's smile remained unchanged, his tone sincere. "Yue'er is my girlfriend. Since you are all Xiao Yan's elders, you are also my elders. This little bit of medicine is just a token of my appreciation. Besides, only when the Han Family becomes stronger and all of you elders are healthy can Yue'er not worry about family matters while she's with me."

"Oh, so you're planning to take Yue'er with you later?"

Han Chi's smile faded, and he asked curiously.

"That's right, I plan to take Yue'er back to the Danta to cultivate."

Xiao Yan had no intention of hiding his background.

Now that we're here, we're here to take over the Han Family directly.

"Returning to the Danta to cultivate? So young friend is actually a disciple of the Danta?"

Han Chi's face lit up with joy upon hearing this.

The Han Family members standing nearby also showed obvious delight.

Danta disciple!

This is a disciple of the number one power in Central Plains. If we can use this opportunity to establish a relationship with the Danta, then let alone the Hong Family, even the Wind Lightning Pavilion, the overlord of the Northern Region, will be nothing!

To be honest, if it weren't for the image of the family head, Han Chi would already be thinking of calling Xiao Yan his son-in-law.

"I am not a disciple of the Danta."

Xiao Yan shook his head.

His rank isn't that low.

"Ah?"

Han Chi and the rest of the Han Family were puzzled.

"I am the Young President of the Danta, and strictly speaking, I belong to the elder level."

Xiao Yan's tone was devoid of any arrogance; it was simply the calmness of stating a simple fact.

However, these words struck the Han Family like a thunderbolt from a clear sky!

"Young President Danta?!"

Han Chi's smile froze completely, his pupils contracted sharply, and he almost dropped the Sect Breaking Pill.

He stood up abruptly, so shocked that he knocked over the chair behind him with a loud thud that jarred in the suddenly silent hall.

The expressions on the faces of all the Han Family elders and core members in the hall froze instantly. They stared intently at Xiao Yan, as if trying to find a trace of a joke on his calm face, but they couldn't.

Danta!

The number one power in Central Plains, a sacred place in the hearts of alchemists!

Its power is so vast and its foundation so deep that even a dominant force in the Northern Region like the Wind Lightning Pavilion has to defer to it.

The Three Great Elders of Danta, aren't they all behemoths whose mere stomp can shake the Central Plains?

The weight that the title "Young President" carries is self-evident!

This not only proves his exceptional talent, but also means that he is the undisputed leader of Danta in the future!

Han Chi and the rest of the Han Family were completely stunned by Xiao Yan's identity.

They were just plotting how to use this Danta disciple to establish a relationship with the Danta Tower, but they never expected that Han Yue's boyfriend was actually the future ruler of the Danta!

Xiao Yan looked at everyone's expressions, smiled faintly, and casually waved his hand, changing his clothes. He was now wearing Purple-Gold Brocade White Robe Xuan Yi had customized for him, with Eighth-Grade Alchemist Badge pinned to his chest.

Now the Han Family was completely certain of Xiao Yan's identity.

That specially made robe and the Eighth-Grade Alchemist Badge cannot be faked.

So this young man in front of us really is the Young President of the Danta!

"Young friend... no, Young President!" Han Chi's voice trembled slightly as he changed his address, his tone becoming more respectful than ever before. "I never imagined that Yue'er would have the honor of forming a bond with you. This is truly her blessing, and even more so, a blessing for the Han Family!"

"We greet the Young President!"

The other elders also stood up and were about to bow to Xiao Yan.

The Young President of the Danta, Eighth-Grade Alchemist —just that identity alone is enough to make the Pavilion Master of the Dou Qi Continent Wind Lightning Pavilion, the overlord of the Northern Region, greet him with utmost respect. In the Dou Qi Continent, strength is paramount, and they dare not put on any airs of seniority towards Xiao Yan now.

However, the next moment, everyone discovered that they could not bend down at all and were unable to perform the proper bow.

Xiao Yan, who had casually used his soul power to immobilize everyone, now looked utterly helpless.

"Alright, everyone here is Yue'er's elder. How can you bow to a junior like me? This isn't the Danta, and I'm not here on official business. My only identity is Yue'er's boyfriend. There's no need for such formalities."

After saying that, Xiao Yan waved his hand, dispelling the soul power that had immobilized everyone.

Hearing Xiao Yan say this, everyone, including Han Chi, was taken aback.

Is there really such a humble and courteous person in the world?

Despite his distinguished status, he is so approachable.

Really...

What a wonderful son-in-law of the Han Family!

The crowd's gazes hardened.

They all understood one principle.

The Han Family is about to rise!

Although Han Yue already knew Xiao Yan's identity, she still didn't expect her own family to react this way after finding out.

After all, she had spent quite a bit of time with Xiao Yan, and her daily interactions were with young ladies from Ancient Clans, so her way of thinking was already quite different from that of her family.

As for whether this will make her seem like a mere pretty face?

Don't be ridiculous, what woman wouldn't seem like a mere ornament in front of Xiao Yan?

There is no one of his generation in this world who can compare to a genius of Xiao Yan's monstrous level.

However, she could understand her family's reaction.

After all, this is the first time she's met Xiao Yan; she should get used to it after seeing him a few more times.

The adorable little girl with silver hair and pigtails standing next to her was completely dumbfounded.

Han Xue's mouth formed an "O" shape, and her big eyes widened. Looking at her father and the elders' fearful expressions, and then at Xiao Yan in front of her who remained calm and composed, exuding an air of confidence that he had everything under control, she felt her heart pounding wildly.

Is my brother-in-law really that amazing?

Her gaze toward Xiao Yan was filled with awe and admiration.

Suddenly I think my brother-in-law is so handsome!

The young girl, just beginning to experience love, was immediately captivated by Xiao Yan's dashing and spirited figure, and a tiny seed began to slowly take root and sprout in her heart.

Anyway, she didn't want to leave her sister, maybe...
