Fight to break the sky

Chapter 703 The prototype of power

His eyes slowly swept over the refining medicinal materials recorded in the scroll. After a moment, Xiao Yan nodded slightly, put away the scroll, and fell into deep thought. These medicinal materials were quite rare. If he wanted to collect them all, he would be afraid that After spending a lot of time, it seems that we still need to find some sea elders for these medicinal materials. As the largest auction house in the empire, the Miter family has an extremely rich collection. Although these medicinal materials are rare, they should still be able to collect them. Be more even.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan also breathed a sigh of relief, got off the stone bed, and then slowly walked out of the secret room.

Just after leaving the secret room, a maid who had been waiting here hurried forward and said respectfully: "Third Young Master, the eldest young master said that if you come out of the secret room, please go to the living room."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded slightly, waved his hand to dismiss the maid, and walked toward the living room.

About ten minutes later, Xiao Yan appeared outside the living room. He heard the voices of Xiao Ding and Xiao Li coming from inside. Besides this, there was also a familiar female voice. Xiao Yan paused for a moment. After distinguishing, it was clear that the person inside seemed to be the eldest princess of the royal family, Yao Ye.

"What is she doing here?" Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, opened the door and walked in.

In the hall, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were smiling and chatting with Yao Ye. When they heard the door open, they looked up and saw Xiao Yan coming in. The smiles on their faces became even brighter.

"Haha, Mr. Xiao Yan, it's not easy to meet you. Yao Ye has been here several times in the past two days, but this is the time I met you." When I saw Xiao Yan entering the door, Yao Ye also had a pretty face. With a touching smile, he stood up and joked at the former.

Xiao Yan smiled, his eyes made contact with Xiao Ding and Xiao Ding, and then he found a chair beside them and sat down. He smiled lightly and said, "I wonder what Princess Yao Ye is here for this time?"

"Mr. Xiao Yan helped my royal family avoid a serious disaster. Do you need any more reason to come to visit?" Yao Ye's bright eyes rested on Xiao Yan and she smiled a little reservedly.

Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head, but stopped talking. He took a sip from the tea cup beside him, raised his eyes slightly and stared at Yao Ye. He didn't believe that the other party was really here to check on his injury.

Being stared at by Xiao Yan, the smile on Yao Yeqiao's face persisted for a while, but had to dissipate helplessly. She pondered for a while and said slowly: "I heard that Mr. Xiao Yan is planning to create a force in the Jia Ma Empire? "

"I have many enemies in the Xiao family. If I want to protect my clan members, I naturally need enough strength to protect them." Xiao Yan did not conceal this and said calmly.

Eyes fixed on Xiao Yan, after a moment, Yaoye said softly: "My royal family does not object to Mr. Xiao's plan to form a force, and can even help you. However, I hope that the matter of Yunlan Sect will not be resolved. Relapse."

Hearing the solemnity in Yao Ye's words, Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes. Since the other party had made his words clear, he no longer had to dodge. He said in a deep voice: "Princess Yao Ye, you can rest assured, Xiao Yan is not Yunshan." , as long as the royal family does not secretly do anything to my Xiao family, Xiao Yan will remember the royal family's help."

Looking at Xiao Yan's solemn expression, Yaoye breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and said with a smile: "Yaoye naturally believes in Mr. Xiao Yan's character. Now that the Yunlan Sect has dissipated, the Jiama Empire also needs a strong force to become As a representative of the Jia Ma Empire, it seems that Mr. Xiao Yan is indeed the best candidate."

Xiao Yan smiled and said: "It's best if the royal family doesn't object to this matter. We are all comrades who have fought side by side. I don't want to make the relationship between the two parties extremely tense because of some things. That would not be good for anyone. As for the formation of the force, I will discuss it in detail with Princess Yaoye after we have a clue in a few days."

Yao Ye nodded and said: "In that case, I will just wait for the good news." After saying this, Yao Ye stood up and waved her palm, and a dozen jade boxes appeared on the table. She said with a smile : "My great-grandfather asked me to bring these. Mr. Xiao Yan is a high-level alchemist himself. Presumably the injuries in his body will not be a big problem, and these medicinal materials may be of some use to your injuries. Imperial City I have something else to do, so I won’t stay here for long, so I’ll take my leave.”

As soon as the words fell, Yao Ye turned around and left slowly, and disappeared from the sight of Xiao Yan and others after a moment.

Watching Princess Yaoye leave, Xiao Yan stood up, came to the table, and opened the jade boxes. Suddenly, a strong scent of medicine came to his face, making him raise his eyebrows. This royal family is indeed a handicraft. Not small.

"It seems that the royal family doesn't have much resistance to this matter." Looking at the jade box, Xiao Li said with a smile. Although Xiao Yan is in the strong class, today's Xiao Yan is not afraid of the royal family, but the latter is the empire after all. It is still a bit troublesome for a real controller to conflict with it.

"It's not that there isn't much resistance, it's because the third brother now has a lot of powerful people around him that they are afraid of. Otherwise, they will be obstructed in every possible way." Xiao Ding said with a smile. After experiencing the Yunlan Sect incident, Gama The royal family is naturally more wary and cautious of those powerful forces.

Hearing the words of the two people, Xiao Yan also smiled slightly and said: "No matter what, it's fine if they don't have any other opinions. This way we can save a lot of trouble in forming a force."

Xiao Ding nodded, and then said slowly: "When you talk about forming a force, I suggest that several major families in the empire and the Alchemist Guild be integrated to form an alliance force. In this case, the force can be established in a short time. It has greatly increased, eliminating the lowest and most tedious steps, and now that we have the support of the royal family, we will be able to absorb new blood with good cultivation talents within the empire in the future, which will be of great benefit to us in the long run."

"Of course, if you want to train strong men who belong to the alliance, martial arts and fighting skills are indispensable. Let's see if several major forces can jointly provide these."

"Just leave things like martial arts and fighting skills to me. As for the formation of the force, brother, you can take care of it yourself. I'm not good at these things." Xiao Yan smiled and got the advice of Han Feng and Yao Lao successively. Zang Zang provided some techniques and fighting skills, which was almost no problem for him.

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xiao Ding shook his head helplessly and said: "You kid, you are starting to think about being the boss now. By the way, how is your injury?"

"In a few days, he should be able to recover." Xiao Yan smiled and said.

Hearing this, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li both breathed a sigh of relief. The latter raised his head and smiled: "After your injury is healed, I may go to the Black Corner Territory. After all, the "Xiao Clan" there still needs me. Go and take charge, otherwise, when you go next time, everyone in the Xiao Clan will be gone."

"Well, from what you said, the "Xiao Clan" has fresh blood provided by Canaan College, and its potential in the future will definitely be great. Although the Black Angle Territory is chaotic, there is a lot of oil and water in it. If the "Xiao Clan" can be expanded in the future, , and successfully occupied a certain position in the Black Corner Territory, it will definitely become a terrifying force. When the power of the Jiama Empire develops in the future, the combination of the two will definitely be comparable to the first-class forces on the Dou Qi Continent." Xiao Ding He groaned.

Xiao Yan also nodded slightly. Most of the students who can leave the inner courtyard are extremely talented people. If they can be recruited under his command, they are a group of elite forces with great potential. Regarding the potential of "Xiao Clan", he is There was never any doubt.

While the three Xiao Yan brothers were discussing, a maid suddenly walked in in a hurry and said respectfully at the door: "Master Xiao Yan, Miss Nalan said at the door that she had something to meet."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan was startled. Miss Nalan was naturally Nalan Yanran, but what did she want from him?

"Invite her in." Xiao Yan said softly with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Hey, Nalan Yanran? Speaking of which, my eldest brother and I have never met this person who almost became our younger brother and sister." Looking at the maid's retreating back, Xiao Li suddenly sneered and said, it seems that for those years, He had always been a little bit upset about Nalan Yanran's forced entry into the clan to break off the engagement.

"Those grievances were settled by the third brother a few years ago, so don't keep it in your heart." Xiao Ding frowned slightly and said in a deep voice. It seemed that he was quite dissatisfied with Xiao Li for mentioning those things in front of Xiao Yan. .

After shrugging, Xiao Li stopped talking and leaned on the chair, his eyes lazily scanning the door.

The three of them waited quietly in the living room for a while. The maid from before came slowly, and behind her, a graceful figure loomed.

Two figures stopped at the door, the maid bowed and retreated, and Nalan Yanran, who was wearing a cloud-colored dress, walked slowly in, her eyes swept over the faces of the three people in the living room, and then her eyes were a little complicated. It was Xiao Yan who was in the center.

"Miss Nalan came to my Xiao Mansion, are you busy?" Xiao Yan gently put down the tea cup in his hand, lowered his eyes and said softly.

Regarding Xiao Yan's indifferent look, Nalan Yanran bit her red lips lightly, and after a moment she said, "Teacher wants to see you one last time."

"The last time?" His eyes suddenly narrowed, Xiao Yan slowly clenched his fists, and his voice gradually became colder: "You'd better not tell me what stupid thing she did. I said, even now Yun The Lan Sect disciples have been disbanded, but I can still find them!"

Nalan Yanran's eyebrows furrowed slightly and she said, "Teacher won't do that kind of thing. If you want to meet me, then come with me. If you don't want to, you may not have a chance in the future." After saying that, she Without waiting for Xiao Yan's reply, he turned around and walked towards the outside of the mansion.

Xiao Yan frowned slightly. After a moment, he stood up and looked at Xiao Li. Xiao Yan threw his palm and threw a scroll to the latter, saying: "Second brother, gather all these medicinal materials. I will It’s of great use, remember, don’t delay!”

After taking the scroll, Xiao Li was startled. When he saw Xiao Yan's slightly twinkling eyes, he seemed to understand something and nodded without any trace.

After giving the scroll to Xiao Li, Xiao Yan said a few words to the two of them and then quickly followed him out. The words Nalan Yanran brought made his face slightly gloomy. What did she want to do?
