Fan Tian slammed his big hand on the table, causing Zhu Huo to shake violently, and the dim light and shadow danced erratically on the faces of the three people.

The air seems to be solid!

As soon as Fan Tian said these words, Gu Xun'er suddenly turned his head to look at Xiao Yan, his red-gold pupils suddenly shrank, and his pretty face turned pale.

Seize the house.

These two words were like a heavy hammer, hitting her heart hard.

She is Eldest Lady of the Gu Clan, God-Grade Bloodline. She has read ancient books since she was a child, so she naturally knows what it means to seize a body.

A foreign soul forcibly takes over another person's body and obliterates the consciousness of the original owner. Such methods are not uncommon among Ancient Eight Clans.

If Xiao Yan was really taken away from her, wouldn't she have been shouting Brother Xiao Yan to an old monster all these years?

"Brother Xiao Yan... is what he said true?" Gu Xun'er's voice was trembling, his fingertips were cold, and his breathing became rapid.

Xiao Yan's face turned pale, and then he shook his head violently, and said calmly, "Xun'er, don't listen to his nonsense! What about seizing the body, and how the soul does not belong to this world, it is nonsense! I, Xiao Yan, grew up in the Xiao Clan, and everyone in Wutan City can testify!"

He turned to Fan Tian, his eyes wide open. "Fan Tian, in order to sow discord between me and Xun'er, you actually made up such ridiculous lies! What are your intentions?"

Fan Tian A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, he leaned back and folded his hands in front of his chest, his deep eyes full of mockery.

Although everyone is a time traveler.

But you put it on first and I'll put it on last!

The advantage is mine!

"Am I talking nonsense? Xiao Yan, do you dare to let me hypnotize your soul? If you really are the original Xiao Yan, you will naturally not be afraid. But if you really come here to steal your body... you must speak the truth!"

He paused and his tone suddenly turned cold. "The power of the soul is mysterious and unpredictable. You, Da Dou Shi, can't hide it."

Xiao Yan's pupils suddenly shrank.

This subtle change was clearly seen by Gu Xun'er. Her heart sank.

"Brother Xiao Yan, you..." Gu Xun'er's voice was filled with incredible trembling.

"Xun'er, don't listen to his nonsense!" Xiao Yan was so anxious that he jumped out of bed and rushed towards Gu Xun'er with his bare feet.

"Xun'er, what are you talking about? I don't understand what he is talking about! He just wants to break us up, don't be fooled by him!"

But before he had even taken two steps, Fan Tian waved his hand, and an invisible wall of air stood in front of him. No matter how hard he pushed, he couldn't get past it.

"Xiao Yan, I advise you to tell the truth." Fan Tian stood up slowly, walked to Xiao Yan, and looked down at him condescendingly.

"If you dare to quibble again, I can hand you over to the Gu Clan. When they get your memory, the truth will naturally come out!"

Xiao Yan was shaken all over, and cold sweat dripped down his forehead.

He is not a robber!

He was a baby when he traveled through time!

I just carry the memory of my previous life! And as time goes by, many things from the past have been forgotten!

When he was a child, he might still be thinking about his past life, but now he has long regarded himself as a member of the Dou Qi Continent!

If his soul is controlled, he is very likely to reveal his identity unconsciously.

Xiao Yan subconsciously took a step back.

"Are you scaring me?" Xiao Yan held on for a breath, but his voice was already weak, "Why do you judge that I am a thief? Xun'er, please help me!"

He looked at Gu Xun'er, his eyes full of pleading.

But Gu Xun'er was standing there quietly at this moment, looking at him steadily with his red-gold eyes. There was shock, confusion, pain in his eyes, and more importantly, a kind of scrutiny that he had never seen before.

She remembered many things.

I think of Xiao Yan when she was a child, the boy who always came over the wall with a smile and said he wanted to help her warm up Meridians.

When he pressed his hand on her back, there was indeed a gentle Dou Qi flowing into her body, which was warm and comfortable.

How old was she at that time? She didn't understand anything, she just felt that Brother Xiao Yan was really good to her.

But now that I think about it, how could a child of that age know how to care for Meridians? How could he possibly climb over the wall and be hospitalized?

"No matter how beautiful I was, I was just a little baby at that time, and the same was true for Brother Xiao Yan. At that age, I had no concept of beauty and love!"

Unless... he's not a child at all.

"Brother Xiao Yan," Gu Xun'er spoke, his voice was very soft, so soft that it was almost drowned out by the crackling sound of Zhu Huo's burning.

"I just want to ask you one thing. When you first climbed over the wall and entered my room, those words you said to me and those things you did... were they intentional?"

Xiao Yan opened his mouth, but nothing came out.

What could he say?

Said that when he first saw Gu Xun'er, he realized that she was different?

Saying that as a time traveler, he actually has the soul of an adult inside his body?

That he has been deliberately approaching, deliberately cultivating, and deliberately making this little girl dependent on him since then?

He can't say.

But his silence was an answer in itself.

Gu Xun'er's eyes turned red.

She recalled those years when Xiao Yan took great care of her, those gentle words, those considerate actions, those days and nights that made her let down her guard little by little and open her heart little by little.

She thought they were childhood sweethearts.

It turns out that it may have been a carefully planned game from beginning to end.

"Fan Tian, why do you conclude that Brother Xiao Yan is abnormal?" Gu Xun'er took a deep breath, and the tremor in his voice gradually subsided, replaced by a cold majesty belonging to the Eldest Lady of the Gu Clan.

"I have a special physique, and I have a talent that can sense abnormalities in other people's souls!" Fan Tian waved his hand.

There are so many things about Xiao Yan that don't make sense.

Fan Tian Just plant the seeds of doubt!

What's more, Xiao Yan is a time traveler himself, he can't deny it at all!

A useless young master Xiao Clan, Dou Qi has been sucked out, but he wants to challenge Young Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect?

A teenager is often calm and calculating far beyond his peers.

Gu Xun'er paused, and a trace of killing intent finally appeared in his red-gold eyes. "Brother Xiao Yan, don't be afraid, Xun'er will make your own judgment on this matter!"

Xiao Yan was completely panicked.

Two golden flames suddenly appeared in Gu Xun'er's eyes, and an obscure soul power instantly flew towards Xiao Yan's head.

Gu Xun'er is the strong Peak Dou Zong. Although he is not Alchemist, he is still the soul of the Spirit Realm.

At this time, Xiao Yan is just a Da Dou Shi. Although the soul power is naturally strong due to time travel, it is only the middle stage of the Mortal Realm at this time.

Driven by the soul power of Gu Xun'er, Xiao Yan's eyes instantly became empty.

After a few breaths, Gu Xun'er asked with an uneasy look on his face, "What's your name?"

"Xiao Yan." Hearing the answer, Gu Xun'er's tense nerves suddenly relaxed.

"Does your soul belong to this body?" Gu Xun'er asked again.

Xiao Yan's body began to tremble uncontrollably, his face turned pale, and there were fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Are you from this world?" Gu Xunran raised his eyebrows and asked again.

She had to verify it herself so that she could feel at ease.

"No, it's not." Xiao Yan looked struggling, as if something far older had come to mind, and he finally spat out these words.
