Chapter 738 Engagement Banquet
Fight to break the world, Wutan City, Xiao family.
The Xiao family's mansion was decorated with lanterns, which was as grand as a wedding. Gu Xun'er's identity was very unusual, so her engagement banquet would not be dull.
Xiao Xuan was in the first place, sitting on a chair of the Grand Master, watching the lively family, filled with emotion.
Xiao Zhan stood beside Xiao Xuan, watching the people around him come and go, especially Gu Yuan, who was talking to Xiao Xuan with a smile, which made him feel unreal like a dream.
Not long ago, his son was called a waste by the world, laughed at by the clansman, and was divorced by the daughter of an old friend, which brought shame to the entire Xiao family. Now that Xiao Xuan, the ancestor of the Xiao family, has returned, Xiao Yan has also received a special opportunity to become a member of the family. Da Neng, who surpassed Emperor Dou, was accepted as a named disciple, and he was favored by the princess of the ancient clan. He was about to get engaged to the princess of the ancient clan. The ups and downs of his life were really unpredictable.
Several elders of the Xiao family were laughing with them, their wrinkled faces, like a blooming iron tree, a bit funny.
"Father, what are you thinking about?" Xiao Yan asked his father Xiao Zhan in a trance and couldn't help but care.
Xiao Zhan shook his head and said with a smile: "I just can't believe it, our Xiao family has changed so much in just a short period of time..."
Hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded, and was quite emotional: "Indeed, if I hadn't experienced it myself, I would have a hard time believing that the ancestor Xiao Xuan still exists in the world, and I would never have thought that I was fortunate enough to worship a prehistoric saint. Under the door..."
Hearing Xiao Yan's mention of the Prehistoric Saint, Xiao Xuan, Gu Yuan and the others stopped talking and looked over.
"By the way, Dad, who did you invite to the engagement banquet?" Xiao Yan asked.
At this time, it was still early, and not many people came. Except for the people from the Xiao family and the ancient family, only a few guests came, and they were all people who usually had business dealings with the Xiao family. Most of these people were shopkeepers and other people. The family members of the city, etc., and there are also people from the auction house. In Wutan City, these people can be regarded as prominent people. Most of them are fighting masters and big fighting masters. The strongest one has the cultivation of fighting spirits, but Looking at the entire Dou Qi Continent, the strength of these people is obviously not enough to be seen, and they cannot be considered elegant.
The Xiao family has fallen so far, and the network will naturally not be too wide.
"Most of them are families, strong people, and some shopkeepers who have interests in our Xiao family." Xiao Zhan didn't understand why Xiao Yan asked this question, but he said it again carefully, "By the way, I still I sent someone to send an invitation letter to the Nalan family, as for whether they are willing to come or not, it is uncertain."
To this day, although the relationship between the Xiao family and the Nalan family has not been completely torn apart, cracks have clearly appeared.
When the old man of the Xiao family was still alive, the Xiao family had a close relationship with the Nalan family. Later, when the old man of the Xiao family passed away, the movement between the Xiao family and the Nalan family decreased a lot until Nalan Yanran brought people from the Yunlan Sect to be strong. Breaking off the marriage made the relationship between the Xiao family and the Nalan family drop to a freezing point. Maybe the Nalan family felt ashamed, but the Xiao family didn’t care whether they felt guilty or not. can be smoothed out.
"The Nalan family... heh." Xiao Yan raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth, "I'm afraid they would like me to be engaged to someone else, so that they can get back a little bit of face morally..."
He glanced at Gu Xun'er, his expression softened, and a smile appeared on his face again: "However, I also have to thank that woman, if she hadn't taken the initiative to break off the marriage, I might not have been able to come together smoothly with Xun'er. Speaking of which, I would like to thank her for fulfilling me and Xun'er."
Xiao Xuan frowned and said, "Okay, Yan'er, today is your engagement banquet with Xun'er, so don't bring up these spoiled topics."
Xiao Yan heard the words and immediately said: "Yes, Patriarch!"
Seeing Xiao Yan and Gu Xun'er go to greet the guests together, Xiao Xuancai retracted his gaze and said to Gu Yuan: "I'm sorry, Brother Gu, this child is still immature after all, I'll let you see a joke."
"Young people, it's inevitable, and no one can be happy if such a thing happens to me." Gu Yuan smiled: "Xiao Yan's mood is completely understandable. I'm not going to be angry because of this trivial matter."
Outside the mansion, the servants of the Xiao family stood neatly. Every time a guest came, they were responsible for inquiring the identity and reporting it to the inside.
"Miss Yafei from Temir Auction House is here!"
As a charming woman in a red dress slowly walked into the Xiao family mansion, a servant announced in a loud voice. After the notification sounded by the servant, many people in the mansion turned their attention to Seeing that mature and charming woman, her exquisite figure made many people swallow their saliva, and their eyes were a little hot.
When Xiao Zhan heard the name, he immediately walked out of the hall, greeted him in person, and laughed loudly: "Welcome Miss Yafei!"
"Congratulations to the patriarch Xiao, congratulations to the young master Xiao Yan, and congratulations to Miss Xun'er!" Ya Fei said with a smile: "Miss Xun'er is very talented and famous in Wutan City, and the young master Xiao Yan was also the youngest fighter in the history of Wutan City. It was a match made in heaven.”
Xiao Yan had also heard about Ya Fei's reputation and knew that this woman was extremely difficult, so he smiled and said, "Thank you!"
Gu Xun'er gave Ya Fei a slight nod. With her temperament, apart from being extremely affectionate to Xiao Yan, she kept a polite distance or politeness to outsiders. Even though today was her engagement day with Xiao Yan, she His character still looks very cold, giving people an inexplicable nobility, like a fairy, unattainable.
"Congratulations to Patriarch Xiao, Ya Fei didn't come late, right?" Ya Fei's voice was crisp and numb, and her delicate voice made people irritated. The young people around were almost unable to control themselves, and they were fascinated and lost their minds. .
As expected of the most beautiful woman in Wutan City, few people can resist her mature and charming style.
Xiao Zhan took a deep breath and looked at Ya Fei with a hint of dread. This woman is not only charming, but also has a very complicated identity. She was one of the most important collaborators in the Xiao family. Returning, and Xiao Yan's adventure, he really didn't have the confidence to invite Ya Fei.
"It's not too late, Miss Yafei can come, it is a blessing for the Xiao family." Xiao Zhan made a gesture of invitation and said, "Please come in and sit!"
Concubine Ya had a charming smile on her face. She walked into the hall and glanced at Xiao Xuan and several people inadvertently, and said in surprise, "Who are these?"
To her surprise, Xiao Xuan and the others were actually indifferent to her arrival, as if ignoring her completely.
Not to mention that she has a profound background and is a direct descendant of the Temir family in the imperial capital. Her amazing charm alone is not something that ordinary people can resist. However, several people in the hall actually regarded her as a transparent person, without the slightest Not being influenced by her, such concentration is by no means ordinary people can have, no wonder she is so surprised.
"This is the patriarch of the ancient clan, Xun'er's father, Gu Yuan!"
"This is the ancestor of our Xiao family!"
When Xiao Zhan introduced the two, there was a touch of pride on his face, and he looked extremely proud.
Ya Fei was startled: "Ancient people?"
Her beautiful eyes trembled, and her gaze towards Gu Yuan suddenly changed. Even her delicate voice changed its tone: "Wait, which ancient clan do you mean?"
Of course, she knew of the ancient clan, but that was almost a power that existed in legends. On the Dou Qi Continent, the top powers had one hall, one tower, two sects, three valleys, and four square pavilions. The first hall was the Soul Hall, and the other tower was It refers to Dan Pagoda, the second sect refers to Huazong and Tianming sect, the three valleys refer to Fenyan Valley, Glacier Valley, and Sound Valley, and Sifang Pavilion refers to Xingyun Pavilion, Fenglei Pavilion, Wanjian Pavilion, and Huangquan Pavilion. However, above these forces, there are still the legendary Eight Ancient Clans, and the Ancient Eight Clans are transcendent existences beyond the forces of the world. Although their reputations spread on the mainland, almost no one has seen them.
The ancient eight clans are too strong, like a legend.
According to legend, the Soul Palace, which makes the world extremely fearful, is only the power cultivated by the Soul Clan, one of the eight ancient clans, and it is only the tip of the iceberg of the Soul Clan, which shows how terrifying the ancient eight clans are.
And now, Xiao Zhan actually told her that the ordinary middle-aged man who looked like a woodcutter who was sitting in front of her was actually the legendary patriarch of the ancient clan, Xiao Xun'er, who had a great reputation in Wutan City. She was the daughter of the patriarch of the ancient clan, which shocked Ya Fei beyond measure.
Even the Temir family behind her, in front of the ancients, is as weak as ants and vulnerable.
"Why, is there a second ancient clan on the Dou Qi Continent?" Xiao Zhan asked back.
Gu Yuan shook his head with a smile, and said, "The visitor is a guest, Brother Xiao, arrange for her to find a place to sit down."
He called Xiao Xuan brother Xiao and Xiao Zhan brother Xiao. He didn't care about his seniority or put on airs.
"Miss Yafei, this way please." Xiao Zhan said to Yafei: "If you have any doubts, you can ask me, I will know everything and say everything."
Ya Fei, who was in a trance, followed Xiao Zhan and sat down in a corner of the hall. The shocked emotion did not calm down for a long time.
Xiao Zhan said: "Although the Xiao family has fallen and has been reduced to struggling to survive in this city of Wutan, our Xiao family has also been brilliant in the past, perhaps Miss Yafei doesn't know that our Xiao family was once a member of the eight ancient clans. The first Xiao clan! It was only because of special reasons that it gradually declined and eventually became a clan that did not enter the mainstream!"
Concubine Ya raised her head, her beautiful eyes were amazed: "Xiao Clan!"
The Xiao family was actually a family established by the descendants of the Xiao family!
My God, the origin of this Xiao family is too scary, right?
She has also stayed in Wutan City for several years, and she believes that she knows all the forces in Wutan City very well, but she never imagined that there is an ancient eight clan level family hidden under her nose!
"Now that the ancestor Xiao Xuan of our Xiao family has returned, Xiao Yan has also obtained some special opportunities and is engaged to the daughter of the patriarch of the ancient clan... Our Xiao family, no, it should be said that our Xiao family will return to its former glory!" Xiao Zhan There is pride in his eyes. In the past, he could only look up at Yafei and Temir auction house, but now, he doesn't have to be so aggrieved anymore, even if the emperor of the Jiama Empire is in person, he can look up. Hold your chest up and have no fear in talking to him.
vented the depression in his heart for many years, Xiao Zhan felt a lot more relaxed, he arranged for the servants to greet Ya Fei, and then walked out of the hall again to greet other guests outside.
Ya Fei was sitting in the corner of the hall, her beautiful eyes squinting at Gu Yuan, Xiao Xuan and the others, and murmured: "The ancestor of the Xiao clan, the patriarch of the ancient clan... Aren't they... the legendary peak fighting saints?"
There has been no Dou Di in the world for many years, that is to say, the peak Dou Sheng is the most powerful existence in this world, and now, the engagement banquet she attended was actually the descendant of a peak Dou Sheng The engagement banquet with the daughter of another peak Dou Sheng, an engagement banquet of this level, can be called the top level in the continent. If it is normal, it is the Dou Huang and Dou Zong powerhouses who are not eligible to participate. Now, she is a little girl. The direct descendants of the Temir family had inadvertently attended such an engagement banquet. If it spreads out, I am afraid that even those Dou Zong and Dou Zun will be envious.
In the hall, there are other guests, but not everyone has the knowledge of Ya Fei, they don't understand what the ancient and Xiao clan means, so the mood has not changed much.
The so-called ignorant is fearless, this is exactly the reason!
Just when Ya Fei's mind was complicated, a resounding voice came from outside the mansion again: "The Patriarch of the Nalan Family and Miss Nalan are here!"
This voice came out, and the hall was quiet for a while.
Ya Fei even looked weirder: "Nalan Yanran is here? Oh, now, it's interesting."
