Xiao Yellow-Hair, Is Your True Form a Simp?

"Dig, dig, dig it up?"

Qi Yan'er's words stunned Xiao Yan.

For a moment, he did not even realize what she wanted dug up!

She wanted me to dig up... Grandfather?

"Outrageous!"

Before Xiao Yan could flare up, the Xiao Family Great Elder had already bellowed:

"Little girl, don't think that just because you have a..."

"You're the one being outrageous!"

Xiao Zhan angrily cut off the Great Elder:

"Great Elder, you need to remember that you are the Xiao Clan's Great Elder!"

"..."

The Great Elder was instantly dumbfounded.

Why did that sound so familiar?

Hadn't he just "reminded" Xiao Zhan in exactly that way?

Well played, Xiao Zhan!

So you'd chickened out, huh!

You were so scared that even when a little girl wanted to dig up your ancestral graves, you could still endure it!

Fine! Then this old man... would endure it too!

Seeing that the Elders had fallen silent, Xiao Zhan turned to Xiao Yan.

"Yan'er, what this little girl says isn't entirely unreasonable."

"Your grandfather has been dead for many years. Now, as long as Old Master Nalan nods in agreement, this matter can be settled."

As he spoke, Xiao Zhan kept signaling frantically to his "good son."

My good son!

Please stop making trouble. Dad is begging you. As long as you don't cause trouble, you can be my dad if you want!

Hearing this, Xiao Yan understood his father's meaning.

But if he agreed...

It would not only humiliate the Xiao Clan, but himself as well!

He had already endured three years of exclusion and mockery from the clan. He had had enough.

Now that Xun Er ignored him and his father could not protect him, what was there left to fear?

At this moment, Xiao Yan was on the verge of madness.

His gaze shifted, passing over Qi Yan'er before settling on Nalan Yanran.

"Miss Nalan, you brought a child here to break off the engagement. Have you considered what it will do to your reputation?"

"I have. So what?"

Nalan Yanran did not care in the slightest.

If she really could have a daughter like Qi Yan'er, that would be her good fortune!

Irritated, she laid everything bare.

"Xiao Yan, what will it take for you to agree to dissolve the engagement?"

"Can you stop being so unreasonable? Do you think the compensation isn't enough?"

"Fine. I can have my teacher give you three more Qi Gathering Powders. And if you're willing, you can enter my Misty Cloud Sect to cultivate profound Dou Qi Techniques. Is that enough?"

As one tempting condition after another came from Nalan Yanran's lips,

the three Elders, along with the younger members of the Xiao Clan, immediately began breathing heavily.

Four Qi Gathering Powders!

Didn't that mean everyone would get a share?

Not to mention the condition allowing Xiao Yan to enter the Misty Cloud Sect for cultivation!

Good heavens!

This was something countless people dreamed of!

After laying out those conditions, Nalan Yanran waited proudly for Xiao Yan's answer.

In her opinion, with such tempting terms, plus the "daughter" present, Xiao Yan would definitely agree.

If he still refused, unless... he really liked being cuckolded!

"You..."

Once Nalan Yanran finished speaking, Xiao Yan's body suddenly trembled as he slowly raised his head.

At that moment,

his somewhat handsome face had become incomparably twisted, like a dog driven into a corner.

"I... I really want to kill you!"

Through chattering teeth, Xiao Yan spat out words dripping with killing intent.

Xiao Yan was furious. Truly furious!

"Ah..."

Seeing the sudden change in Xiao Yan's expression, Nalan Yanran jumped in fright.

He really did like being cuckolded!

Even now, he still would not agree!

"Brat, are you courting death?"

Seeing Xiao Yan's change, sword light reappeared in Ge Ye's palm!

"Yan'er, don't be rude!"

Xiao Zhan was so frightened by Xiao Yan's sudden outburst that he immediately sprang from his seat.

A hint of tremor leaked into his loud shout.

The current Xiao Clan could not afford to offend the Misty Cloud Sect!

"Yes, Father!"

Xiao Zhan clenched both fists, forcibly suppressing his anger.

The terrifyingly twisted expression on his face gradually returned to calm.

Looking at the youth before him, who had almost instantly reined in his emotions, Ge Ye frowned slightly.

This Xiao Yan was not someone to be underestimated either!

If his talent recovered in the future, he would surely become a formidable rival for Yanran!

"Big Sister Yanran, it seems he won't give up easily. How about you leave it to me?"

Seeing Nalan Yanran at a loss, Qi Yan'er sweetly volunteered.

"Yan'er, you... All right!"

Though she did not quite believe Qi Yan'er could handle this disgusting, headache-inducing Xiao Yan, there was no other choice now.

Qi Yan'er pursed her little lips and looked up at Xiao Yan.

"Hey! Xiao Yellow-Hair, why are you so shameless?"

"You..."

Xiao Yan gritted his teeth, making a grinding sound as he suppressed his fury.

As if she had not seen his rage,

Qi Yan'er put one hand on her little waist and pointed at Xiao Yan with the other.

"My Big Sister Yanran is already my daddy's woman. You don't have even the slightest hope, so why are you still pestering her?"

"Could it be that your true form is a simp?"

"Pfft—Hahahaha!"

As soon as Yan'er finished speaking, suppressed laughter immediately rang out in the hall.

Simp!

That description could not have been more fitting.

"You..."

After enduring mockery and ridicule for three years, Xiao Yan's skin had become exceptionally thick and his temperament extremely steady.

Yet the word "simp" still made him unable to hold back as he snapped:

"This is between me and your mother. What would a little brat like you know?"

"Heh."

Qi Yan'er's little face turned cold.

"Xiao Yellow-Hair, you call me a child, but what you're doing right now is far worse than this child."

"Big Sister Yanran came to break off the engagement with the approval of both my daddy and the Misty Cloud Sect Mistress."

"If you keep pestering her, you should know who will come to the Xiao Clan next time without me having to tell you!"

A threat!

Using power to suppress others!

Qi Yan'er's clear and logical words astonished everyone present.

This little girl was simply a monster!

Could such words really come from the mouth of a seven-year-old girl?

Hearing Qi Yan'er's words, Xiao Yan revealed a dejected expression.

He had to admit that the pressure of their power left him unable to breathe.

Yet a cold smile still appeared at the corner of his lips.

"Fine!"

"I can agree to break off the engagement, but the two of you should know just how humiliating it is when the woman breaks off an engagement on the Dou Qi Continent."

"I, Xiao Yan, have thick skin, so it doesn't matter much to me. But my father!"

"He is the Clan Head. If he agrees today, how will he lead the Xiao Clan in the future? How will he keep a foothold in Wu Tan City?"

"..."

The moment Xiao Yan said this, Xiao Zhan nearly fainted from anger.

How had he ended up with such a "dad"?

Why the hell did you have to drag your old man into this?

If you hadn't said it,

those three old geezers in the clan would have been wary of the Misty Cloud Sect and Qi Yan'er's daddy, and would not have targeted me.

But now that you've said it,

within half a day, this matter will spread throughout Wu Tan City.

Then I really won't be able to remain Clan Head!

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Nalan Yanran glanced at Xiao Zhan above, who had aged visibly in an instant, and felt somewhat apologetic.

"Yan'er..."

Sigh...

Qi Yan'er pouted her little lips and sighed like an adult.

"Big Sister Yanran, you're just too kind. You're nowhere near as ruthless as my daddy."

"Can't you see that this Xiao Yellow-Hair is using his father to play the victim?"

Xiao Zhan: (⊙o⊙)!

Yan'er was using me!

Qi Yan'er's lively eyes rolled as she waved her little hand.

"Fine, I'll give you, Xiao Yellow-Hair, one chance."

"Have a spar with me. As long as you can defeat me, the matter of breaking off the engagement can be dropped!"

"What? A spar?"
