Chapter 122 Nalan Jie: My intestines are filled with regret! Nalan Yanran: I finally broke off the e
"Uncle Nalan has said so. If I continue to care about it, won't it look like the Xiao family is petty?" Xiao Yuan also smiled and walked forward after hearing this, bowed his hands and said, "I have met Uncle Nalan."
"Miss Nalan, long time no see."
Xiao Yuan then looked at Nalan Yanran who was wearing a moon-white dress and smiled lightly.
"Well, long time no see."
Nalan Yanran was surprised for a moment when she saw Xiao Yuan. She found that in the past three years, Xiao Yuan seemed to have become a bit more handsome. In terms of appearance, if she put makeup on Xiao Yuan, she might be She also had to pale in front of him.
The key is that she still cannot detect the strength of Xiao Yuan and the old man beside him.
"My nephew is really a talented person, please come in quickly." Nalansu smiled and said, but then he looked at Haibodong and asked doubtfully: "Who is this?"
"This is my teacher, Hai Bodong, Hai Lao."
Xiao Yuan introduced with a smile upon hearing this.
Hearing this, Nalan Su, who had caught a glimpse of the ice sculpture outside the door early in the morning, had a flash of strange color in his eyes, and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Mr. Hai, please come in quickly."
As for the previous housekeeper, he naturally did not show up. Obviously, Nalansu also knew that it was not appropriate for him to come out and be an eyesore at this time.
After following Nalan Su into the side hall, the four of them sat down, and Nalan Su was the first to break the silence.
"I wonder why nephew Xiao Xian came here this time?"
Listening to Nalan Su's knowing tone, he knew that the Nalan family's attitude towards his cheap son-in-law had changed drastically and they no longer wanted to terminate the engagement.
"Of course, in order to terminate the engagement with Miss Nalan, I brought the engagement contract written by the two old men. My grandfather passed away early, and the engagement contract has been kept by my father. Now, he has given full authority to this matter to me. deal with."
Xiao Yuan stood up, cupped his hands, took out a big red scroll, and said with a serious face.
"I made an agreement with Miss Nalan that within three years, I will come to her to terminate the engagement. As a gentleman says, it is hard to catch up with a horse. Now that there is still some time left before the three-year deadline, I am not breaking the contract."
Xiao Yuan continued.
"This is our family's engagement contract. It has always been kept by the old man. To be honest, the old man has relapsed from his old injury and is already in a coma. I'm afraid nephew Xiao Xian will have to wait for the cancellation of the engagement."
Nalan Su looked embarrassed when he heard this and said very apologetically.
Hearing this, Nalan Yanran raised her eyebrows, but now that she is more sensible, it is not easy to act nonsense at this moment. After thinking about it, she silently took out the note written by Xiao Yuan that day from Nalan's ring and suggested:
"How about using this?"
"This is just a written agreement between the two of you. If the old man knew that he would terminate the engagement so hastily, I'm afraid it would be hard to explain!"
Nalan Su frowned when he heard this and sighed.
Nalan Yanran's eyes flashed with anger when she heard this. She didn't expect that the biggest resistance to breaking off the engagement was not the Xiao family, who used to feel ungrateful, but her own family!
"Haha, don't worry, Miss Nalan. I heard about it before I came here. Mr. Nalan is ill. I don't know what's going on. How does he need to be treated? I saw a lot of alchemists at the door, but with Miss Nalan I’m afraid I’ve already invited Elder Furukawa from the Yunlan Sect, right?”
Seeing this, Xiao Yuan was too lazy to argue with Nalan Su, and looked at Nalan Yanran with a smile and said.
"Well, Elder Furukawa has indeed been invited, but the poison is extremely stubborn. Even Elder Furukawa couldn't remove the poison, but he did give a way, which is to control the flame and enter Mr. Nalan's body. body, and then use high temperature to remove the poison from it, but there is one most important premise for this, that is, the flame must be a strange fire..."
Nalan Yanran nodded, with a wry smile on her face, and then said:
"But you also know that the strange fire is extremely rare. Even the Dan King Gu He has not been able to obtain the strange fire, let alone the others. So now we can only place our hope on some third-level or above refiners. Those people are among the top alchemy masters in the Gama Empire, and they each have their own unique abilities. We can only see if there is any other way? "
After saying that, Nalan Yanran sighed sadly.
"How about this? I can give the old man's illness a try. If it succeeds, it will be easier for us to terminate our engagement?"
Xiao Yuan smiled when he heard this, and immediately turned his palm over, and black and white flames rose from his palm.
"This is... strange fire!!!"
After being stunned for a moment, Nalan Yanran and Nalan Su looked shocked and said in silence.
"Haha, I'm lucky. What I got when I went out for training was indeed a strange fire."
Xiao Yuan said with a calm smile.
This is really not because of his modesty. It is really just his luck that he got this Yin and Yang dual flame.
"Okay, okay, my nephew has really come to the rescue this time. I just want to ask Uncle Rong, with your current ability to control fire, are you qualified for the job of detoxification? You also know that this strange fire is going to enter the old man's body. , it is definitely extremely dangerous, uncle has to be more cautious.”
Nalan Su's words were filled with respect, and his smile became much more sincere.
"Uncle Nalan, don't worry. When it comes to fire control, although I can't compare to a fourth-grade alchemist, an ordinary third-grade alchemist is definitely no match for me."
As Xiao Yuan spoke, he released his soul perception and shaped the strange fire in his hand into various shapes.
After all, it has been more than a year since he obtained the strange fire. Now, his ability to control the strange fire is much stronger than that of Xiao Yan, an alchemist.
"That's very good. Please follow me to the old man's house for a try. If I can really save the old man's life, my Nalan family will never let my good nephew go home empty-handed. I will also discuss with the old man about breaking off the engagement. After discussion, I will definitely give my nephew a satisfactory answer."
Nalan Su pulled Xiao Yuan towards Nalan Jie's house with a happy face.
Nalan Yanran was left alone for a long time before she reacted. She immediately looked at Haibodong apologetically and said:
"Sorry, old sir, my father is too excited. Please sit here for a while. If you need anything, just call the servants in the house."
Nalan Yanran bowed slightly, saluted, and then followed.
When Haibodong heard this, a strange color appeared in Gujing Wubo's eyes.
Times have really changed. I am a strong fighter, but now I am treated like an ordinary person in someone else's house.
However, he was too lazy to argue with the Nalan family. He lazily picked up the teacup and took a sip.
The tea was pretty good.
On the other side, Xiao Yuan had followed Nalan Su to Nalan Jie's house.
Inside the house, the soft light illuminated the house quite brightly, but on the contrary, there was an extremely cold atmosphere condensed in the house.
The space in the room is quite large. In the center against the wall, there is a large bed, with an old man with a withered face lying on it. Around the bed, several maids are busy, and they hear the door open. They looked at him with surprise, but they were surprised to find that Nalan Su brought such a handsome young master, and they couldn't help but be a little stunned.
Seeing this, Nalan Su coughed in embarrassment and signaled the maids what to do. Then they turned their heads and once again took good care of the comatose old man.
Slowly approaching the big bed, Xiao Yuan glanced over the bed and found that the old man's face showed a large area of gray and black color visible to the naked eye, and the frown between the eyebrows with the word "Chuan" was faintly lingering. Smells a little bit of death.
"Has it reached this level? No wonder even Furukawa can't do anything about it."
Looking at Nalan Jie's face, which looked like he had half a foot in the grave, Xiao Yuan said in a deep voice.
"Yes, I am afraid that even a strong Dou Huang warrior would not dare to mess with something like branding poison. The old man has been able to survive so many years and has reached his limit." Behind him, Nalan Su stood aside. Sighing and shaking his head, he immediately said with a look of expectation on his face: "My dear nephew, look, are you sure of the cure for this situation?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan shook his head helplessly:
"Uncle Nalan is joking, even Gu He can't be cured. Isn't it a bit difficult to ask me to give you some assurance? I'm not an alchemist, and there is no other way, so I can only use strange fire according to the method Gu He said. Enter the old man’s body and slowly expel the poison.”
"How sure are you of this?"
Nalan Yanran said with some worry.
"Let's say 50%. If there is no strange fire, let alone 50%, it is impossible to have 10%."
Xiao Yuan said lightly.
"Then please give my nephew a try. With the old man's temperament, if he hadn't been unconscious, I'm afraid he would have chosen to give it a try!"
After hesitating for a moment, Nalan Su said solemnly.
"Well, please, Uncle Nalan and Miss Nalan, please get out of the way. I will start detoxifying now. Don't let anyone disturb me. Otherwise, it will only take me two days to recuperate if I suffer some backlash. But Mr. Nalan's current My body can’t help but twist.”
Upon seeing this, Xiao Yuan stepped forward and helped Nalan Jie up. He immediately sat cross-legged behind Nalan Jie, making seals with his hands, and black and white flames intertwined and rose at his fingertips.
Seeing that Xiao Yuan was about to take action, Nalan Su took Nalan Yanran and hurriedly took a few steps back. At the same time, he waved his hand to expel all the maids in the room.
After casually looking at Nalan Jie with a withered face, Xiao Yuan let out a breath and then pointed out a single finger and landed on the Dazhui point on Nalan Jie's back.
The next moment, the high temperature of the strange fire spread, turning the clothes on Nalan Jie's upper body directly into fly ash.
But this phenomenon stopped strangely with his belt as the dividing line.
Just this skill of controlling fire with one hand made Nalan Su's eyes light up!
Maybe there really is something to play!
And as Nalan Jie's upper body was exposed, his already skinny body was also revealed in front of Xiao Yuan.
It was obvious that Nalan Jie suffered a lot from the poison.
But Xiao Yuan didn't have any thoughts about this. He just wanted to cure the old man quickly, get the Qihuan Qingling saliva, successfully terminate the engagement, and then leave immediately.
Perhaps due to preconceptions, Xiao Yuan really didn't have a good impression of the Nalan family.
As for Nalan Yanran who was feeling sad because her grandfather was tortured, Xiao Yuan simply ignored it.
With the injection of strange fire, Nalan Jie, who was originally unconscious, began to tremble suddenly at this moment.
In this scene, father and daughter Nalan Su and Nalan Yanran were seen looking at each other, but they did not dare to disturb them.
He had no choice but to look at Xiao Yuan silently with eyes full of hope with a feeling of uneasiness.
At this moment, Xiao Yuan's soul power controlled the black and white flame, quickly passing through the meridians, and finally came to the bones covered by the poison.
With the help of the detection of soul power, the situation in Nalan Jie's body also appeared in Xiao Yuan's mind. Looking at those gray-black bones, Xiao Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
Fortunately, he came early, so although Nalan Jie was deeply poisoned, he had not yet reached the point of terminal illness.
If you work harder today, you can basically remove all the toxins.
With the fighting energy reserves of his five great fighting master level qi palaces and his powerful soul perception power, he is completely able to complete the detoxification in one go!
Moreover, the yin fire of the yin and yang dual inflammation has the adhesion of gangrene attached to the bone. It is a godsend medicine to deal with such toxins that penetrate deep into the bones.
The Yang Fire can be burned in his heart to force out all the toxins in his internal organs and meridians. With such separate operations, it is easy to deal with the poison!
But, this process may be a little painful.
Xiao Yuan calmly relaxed the soul perception that suppressed the temperature of the flame. The terrifying high temperature spread in an instant. Nalan Jie, who originally felt warm and comfortable deep in his bones, suddenly opened his eyes at this moment. , letting out a burst of painful roars and roars.
Seeing this situation, Nalan Su and Nalan Yanran felt their hearts tighten.
Immediately afterwards, a rather powerful aura erupted, causing Nalan Su and Nalan Yanran to take three steps back.
But before they had time to adjust their breath, they quickly looked at Xiao Yuan.
I saw Xiao Yuan sitting on the same spot, as steady as a rock, with an indifferent expression:
"Mr. Nalan, if you can survive this, you will be able to get rid of the poison. If you cannot survive, there is nothing I can do."
"Little kid, you saved me? Huh? Why do you look familiar?"
Upon hearing this, Nalan Jie also realized that he had lost his composure, and quickly calmed down. He gritted his teeth, forced himself to look back and glanced at Xiao Yuan's side face, and then said with a hint of confusion.
"Father, he is Xiao Yuan."
Nalan Su glanced at Nalan Yanran who was hiding half a body behind him, and said bravely.
"ah?"
Nalan Su's old face froze when he heard this, then he straightened his face and said with some emotion:
"It turns out he's a boy from the Xiao family. I didn't expect that after more than thirty years, I, Nalan Jie, would let Xiao Lin's grandson save my life again. It's really a trick of fate!"
Immediately afterwards, Nalan Jie caught a glimpse of Nalan Yanran, whose eyes were evasive, and couldn't help roaring:
"Huh? You damn girl, do you still have the nerve to come back? In the past three years, if it weren't for your willful trip to the Xiao family to break off the engagement, would I have been so angry that I stopped practicing and ended up like this due to this damn branding?"
However, no matter what the purpose of such actions and words, they could not shake Xiao Yuan's intention to terminate the engagement.
"Old man, there is no need to vent his anger on Miss Nalan. Xiao Yuan came to the house this time to break off the engagement. This has nothing to do with the status of our two families or the past relationship. It is simply that the younger generation already has someone he likes. With Nalan, There is no love between a man and a woman. This engagement is not very satisfactory to me and Miss Nalan. In this case, it is better to terminate it. "
Xiao Yuan's voice sounded slowly behind Nalan Jie.
"How does this make me worthy of your late grandfather?"
Nalan Jie looked ashamed when he heard this and sighed.
"It doesn't matter. If the old man feels sorry for you, I'll be shameless enough to ask him for a medicinal plant as a reward for this action."
Xiao Yuan said with a smile when he heard this.
"Huh? Tell me!"
Nalan Jie had already adapted to the burning pain caused by the high temperature in his body, and a somewhat heroic look appeared on his face, and he laughed.
"Seven Fantasy Green Spirit Saliva."
Hearing Xiao Yuan's request, Nalan Jie was stunned for a moment, but he still smiled heartily and said, "Okay, it's just a medicinal plant. Compared with my life, what does it mean?"
After saying that, he winked at Nalan Su.
Nalan Su understood immediately and walked out quietly.
"Ahem, Xiao Yuan, this is about the engagement."
As Nalan Su left, Nalan Jie coughed dryly and then said hesitantly.
"The engagement must be terminated. This is an agreement made with Miss Nalan. I will never break my promise."
Xiao Yuan said calmly.
"Well, forget it, you young people have young ideas. In this case, this matter of the engagement" Nalan Jie took out a big red scroll and threw it to Nalan Yanran, and then said, "That's it. Come on!"
"As for what happened back then, I apologize to you and your Xiao family on behalf of Yanran. This child has been spoiled by us since he was a child. He does lack some consideration when doing things. Fortunately, your kid has a good brain and didn't solve the matter completely. It’s a mess, otherwise I would rather die than accept your help.”
Nalan Jie said and couldn't help but glare at Nalan Yanran.
Seeing this, Nalan Yanran didn't dare to go crazy at this time and offend Xiao Yuan and Nalan Jie, so she had to stand in a corner and be scolded aggrievedly.
"Haha, the past is in the past, who hasn't been young yet?"
Xiao Yuan said with a generous smile.
But Nalan Jie's heart sank when he heard this. Xiao Yuan's tone was a posture of representing the Xiao family and discarding the old accounts and old feelings between Nalan Yanran and the Nalan family. In other words, after this time, All the past ties between the Nalan family and the Xiao family have disappeared. If they try to shamelessly play the emotional card again, they will really have their face stepped on by others.
Nalan Yanran, who was standing by, obviously didn't understand what was going on. She even breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Xiao Yuan was really generous.
Nalan Jie, who had finally regained a little bit of his rosy complexion after seeing this, became worse again.
He had a feeling that losing Xiao Yuan would be the biggest regret of the Nalan family.
