"Get married in a year?" Zhou Ting frowned. In order to prevent the night from dreaming, he hoped that Xiao Yan and Zhou Xiner would get married in the shortest time, preferably within a month, but Xiao Yan had already given in and he was embarrassed. It was too hard. If it was spread out, others would think that Zhou Xiner wouldn't be able to marry.

   Fortunately, Xiao Yan promised to go to the imperial capital for employment within a month and make a marriage contract, so this is not unacceptable.

   "Girl, what's your opinion?" Zhou Ting did not make a decision immediately, but asked Zhou Xiner's opinion.

   Who knows, Zhou Xiner blushed like an apple, buried her head like an ostrich, and said shyly, "It's all up to the ancestors!"

   Zhou Ting smiled, "Really? If you want me to say, Xiao Yan is not worthy of the little princess of my Zhou family. Why don't you just reject it for you?"

   "No!" Zhou Xiner raised her head suddenly, her voice was a little distorted, obviously very excited.

   But when she noticed Zhou Ting's half-smiling face, she immediately lowered her head in shame: "Old Ancestor, you are making fun of others again!"

Zhou Ting couldn't help laughing: "Okay, girl, I'm not joking with you, this marriage, the old man is the master for you, but if Xiao Yan really wants to marry you, he has to live with you. The level of the father, this is the last test for Xiao Yan, if Xiao Yan can't even pass this level, don't expect the old man to speak for him."

   "Brother Xiao Yan will definitely satisfy the royal father!" Zhou Xiner said to herself.

"Whether you are satisfied or not, you will see for yourself in the future." Zhou Ting smiled lightly and turned his eyes to Xiao Yan, "Boy Xiao Yan, the old man said the same thing, I don't care how much the dowry is, but I must see your sincerity! "

   Xiao Yan handed over solemnly: "Senior, rest assured, this junior will never let you down!"

   Zhou Ting nodded, and immediately said to Zhou Xiner: "Let's go, girl, it's been a long time since you've been out, it's time to go home."

   "Brother Xiao Yan." Zhou Xiner pursed her lips and blinked at Xiao Yan with a hint of playfulness, "I'll be waiting for you in the imperial capital. See you soon."

   Xiao Yan lightly touched Zhou Xiner's forehead and smiled: "Xiner, at most one month, I will definitely come to the imperial capital."

   After receiving Xiao Yan's promise, Zhou Xiner stared at Xiao Yan reluctantly for a long time, then turned around and said to Zhou Ting, "Ancestor, let's go."

   After a while, the figures of Zhou Ting and Zhou Xiner gradually disappeared into the distance.

  Xiao Yan stared at the direction where the two left, motionless, and did not make a sound for a long time.

   "Son, it's time for us to go home too." Xiao Ding sighed and immediately patted Xiao Yan's shoulder.

  Xiao Yan retracted his gaze and nodded to Xiao Ding: "Yes, father."

  …

That night.

When the Xiao family guard shouted "Master Xiao Yan is back", immediately, countless Xiao family members gathered from all directions, surrounding Xiao Yan, Xiao Ding and Xiao Zhantian in the center, like stars holding the moon generally.

  When Xiao Wuwei arrives, everyone will automatically part ways.

  Xiao Wuwei walked through the crowd and came to Xiao Yan, Xiao Ding and Xiao Zhantian, his eyes fell on Xiao Yan, and said with a smile, "Yan'er."

   "Patriarch, we're back." Xiao Yan seemed very stable, neither humble nor arrogant.

   Although Xiao Wuwei is his grandfather, in formal occasions, he must address the patriarch, which is the rule of the Xiao family.

   "Patriarch." Xiao Ding and Xiao Zhantian were very excited, but Xiao Yan couldn't calm down.

   "Okay, just come back." Xiao Wuwei laughed happily: "Xiao Ding, Zhantian, both of you have worked hard."

   Xiao Ding and Xiao Zhantian hurriedly shook their heads and said respectfully, "It's not hard work!"

Xiao Wuwei shook his head with a smile and didn't argue with Xiao Ding. He waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's eat first, you've traveled so far, you must be hungry. What's the matter, let's eat while you're at it. Say it."

   After a while, all the senior members of the Xiao family, as well as Xiao Yan, were sitting in the hall of the Xiao family, and maids kept coming in with fragrant dishes.

  Outside the hall, many young people, even some middle-aged people, gathered around the door, looking curiously at the people in the room.

The Xiao family is a strict family. Under normal circumstances, only the clan elders and clan chiefs are eligible to eat in the hall, and even the clan chief and the elders' family members can only eat in their own rooms. Today, Xiao Yan is An exception, or in other words, the patriarch made an exception for Xiao Yan, but no one objected, and several elders who were no lower than Xiao Wuwei tacitly agreed with Xiao Wuwei's decision.

   It can be said that Xiao Yan was the first junior to eat in the hall for so many years.

   This honor alone is enough to make countless young people envy.

But no one dared to talk behind their backs, because everyone knew that Xiao Yan had great luck and joined the Sky Academy, and he had already achieved great success. Just being a student in the cultivation class of the Sky Academy is enough to be on an equal footing with countless family patriarchs. , having a meal in the hall, who dares to question its qualifications?

   "Unexpectedly, I, Xiao Yan, will be able to eat in the hall one day." Thinking of his previous treatment, Xiao Yan couldn't help but laugh at himself.

At the beginning, he was not well-received in the Xiao family. From the elders to the cousins, it was better to ignore him directly. However, more people regarded him as a punching bag, and they liked everything. If it wasn't for Zhou Xiner and Xiao Ding to protect him and comfort him, he would have been driven mad by the clansmen long ago.

   As for Xiao Wuwei, although Xiao Yan didn't hate him, he was somewhat resentful.

   After all, Xiao Wuwei only had the righteousness of the family on his mind, and always put the interests of the family first, and he lacked due care for Xiao Yan.

   He is a qualified patriarch, but not a qualified grandfather.

   Who would have thought that in just one year, he would completely turn over, not only no one dared to laugh at him, but even the exclusive position of the elder and the patriarch, he was qualified to sit.

   "Come here, Xiao Yan, this is the first-class black phoenix beef that the patriarch specially sent someone to buy. I heard that this is your favorite dish in the past. Eat it quickly, you're welcome."

   "And this dish, pine needles and green bamboo shoots, is also your favorite dish."

   "By the way, this is the wine sent by the Shentu family. It is said to be a century-old wine with an excellent taste. Xiao Yan, come here and fill it up quickly."

The elders, who had never paid attention to Xiao Yan in the past, were all smiles at this time, and their enthusiasm was a bit too much. The wrinkles on their old faces were almost crowded together. It was really hard for them to even put Xiao Iwa's preferences were investigated clearly.

   Looking at a group of elders who used to be high above, trying their best to flatter and please himself, Xiao Yan couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "As soon as you enter the sky, things change!"

   Just being a student in the cultivation class of Sky Academy, his status in the family has undergone earth-shaking changes. Even these elders with eyes higher than the top have bowed their noble heads to him, and so flattered him.

  Think about their dismissive appearances in the past, and compare their enthusiasm and pleasing appearances at the moment, it's really ironic!

   Outside the house, a group of clansmen saw the ugly state of the elders, and their hearts were extremely uncomfortable. You must know that many of them are descendants of these elders! Looking at their grandfather and father, lose face, and flatter a junior in the clan, how can they feel good in their hearts?

   "Deserving it!" Xiao Zhantian stared at this scene coldly, and was even extremely happy in his heart. He still broods about the fact that he was pushed out by a group of elders to take the blame.

   Although Xiao Yan was also very shameless about the behavior of these elders, he did not deliberately embarrass them.

He was neither humble nor arrogant, and said calmly, "Thank you for your kindness, but Xiao Yan is just a junior, you can do it yourself, you don't need to trouble the elders." He received the respect these elders should have, and did not give them a face because of the unhappiness that had happened in the past.

   A group of elders breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Xiao Yan did not mean to trouble them.

   They tried so desperately to please Xiao Yan, isn't the purpose to eliminate Xiao Yan's dissatisfaction with them?

   Now that they have achieved their goal, they will naturally no longer shamelessly curry favor with Xiao Yan. After all, they also want face, and there are still many clansmen watching!

   After drinking and eating, while the maid was clearing the table, Xiao Wuwei asked Xiao Yan curiously, "Yan'er, what is your cultivation level now? Why can't I see your cultivation level..."

   Hearing this, the surrounding elders also pricked up their ears and looked at Xiao Yan nervously.

   "Returning to the patriarch, my cultivation base is currently in the middle of the pill rotation."

   Xiao Yan stood up and answered respectfully.

  The room was silent for a while, and even the sound outside the room suddenly disappeared, as if the whole world suddenly became silent.

   At this time, Xiao Ding also stood up excitedly and said proudly: "Patriarch, elders, Yan'er has not only reached the middle level of Dan Xuan, but also the Saint Master personally admitted that Yan'er is the first genius of the cultivation class!"

   "Xiao Yan's nephew will definitely lead the Xiao family to glory!" Xiao Zhantian also said excitedly: "Our Xiao family will surely rise!"

   The elder of the Xiao family was so shocked that his brain was a little dizzy. After a long time, he recovered and suddenly asked: "I remember, Xiao Yan is only twenty years old, right?"

   As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden sound of air-conditioning inside and outside the house.

  Xiao Wuwei stood up excitedly, patted Xiao Yan's shoulder heavily, and laughed loudly: "Okay, okay! Hahaha...ha!"

They have never even heard of such talent in the Danxuan Middle Realm who are less than 20 years old. Not to mention the Xiao family, the entire Zhou Dynasty, and even the entire Wild North, have never been born so amazing. Genius, right?

   As Xiao Zhantian said, the Xiao family, which has been in decline for a long time, will surely rise, and the person leading the rise of the Xiao family must be Xiao Yan!

   Xiao Wuwei believes that as long as Xiao Yan grows up thoroughly, he will definitely be able to lead the Xiao family to a height that has never been reached in the past. Compared with the most glorious period of the Xiao family, it will be countless times more brilliant and powerful!
