I will pay for it
Slipping into his room, Xiao Yan quickly closes the door, then he rushes into the corner of the room and pulls out a large heap of herbs as well as a few magic cores from a package. Carefully he places them into the cabinet, and then he sniffs the smell of herbs on his hands, smiles and breathes a sigh of relief.
In order to be absorbed into cultivating, Xiao Yan purchased enough herbs for 8 months of cultivation. It seems that he intends to spend the rest of the year on hard cultivation.
A shadow of a smile touches Xiao Yan's mouth as he lazily walks to the bed and then lies down. He was really tired after half day of rushing around.
"Yan, are you there?" When he is about to getting sleepy, he heard a knock on the door.
Opening his bleary eyes, Xiao Yan hurriedly jumps out of bed and opens the door of his room, looking at Xiao Zhan who was standing outside the door. He scratched on on his head, smiles and asked, "Father, what's wrong?"
"Can't I come to you if there's nothing wrong? You little fellow have been hiding from me for two months." With his large palm intimately rubbing Xiao Yan's head, Xiao Zhan responds with a smile.
Looking at father's warm and mellow smile, Xiao Yan is almost moved to tears, but he did not know what to say.
"Still blaming yourself for that matter? Oh, it's she who broke the engagement, and that's her loss. Don't be sad, man, and don't cry like a woman. I know my son is not a waste!" Xiao Zhan said proudly.
"Oh, father, I will personally go to the Clan of Cloud and Mist three years later." Smiling, Xiao Yan said softly.
Smile slightly vanishes from Xiao Zhan's face, with his eyes tightly fixed on Xiao Yan, he says with some hesitation: "It doesn't matter for me, but do you really intend to go? I don't mean that you are no match for Nalan Yanran, but I'm afraid that you can't fight the power of the Clan of Cloud and Mist ..."
Xiao Yan smiled slightly and nodded, his thin lips pursed into a somewhat stubborn line: "Father, there are some things that can't be tolerated as a man, and you have to face it."
"Oh, your disposition seems very similar to me, and your two brothers will be happy knowing that you can think so."Xiao Zhan is gratified to see his son's persistence. With a slight sigh, he nods heavily: "Good, I will wait for the time when my son earns back me the face! I want Nalan Su, that old bastard, to beg me to revoke that certificate of divorce with bride-price one day!"
Xiao Yan nods and his smile disappears.
"Here, here, consider this as a present from your father!" Pulling out a white jade bottle, which Xiao Yan seems extremely familiar with, from his bosom, Xiao Zhan handed it over to Xiao Yan.
Looking at this Elixir: Foundation-laying Liquid, which has changed several times and finally returns to him again, Xiao Yan dumbfounds at heart but still maintains a puzzled expression on his face, "Father, what's this?"
"Elixir: Foundation-laying Liquid. It can speed up your cultivation of Battle Qi. I bought it at today's auction." Xiao Zhan says, smiling.
"It costs a lot of money, right?" Taking the white jade bottle, Xiao Yan feels a warm stream flowing through his heart.
"It costs forty thousand gold coins, but as long as it works on you, it would be worth it." Xiao Zhan says calmly.
"You spent forty thousand gold coins to buy me this? I am afraid the elders will use this to find fault with you." Xiao Yan force a wry smile.
"Ch, I'm the head of this clan, and they can't do anything but pay lip service." Xiao Zhan coldly snorted.
"Father, thank you, I will shut their mouths up at the coming of age ceremony next year." Xiao Yan bites his lips and then smiles.
"Good, I wait for the moment when my son return to the position of genius once again!" Although not knowing why Xiao Yan has so much confidence again, Xiao Zhan is extremely happy with this confident look of his son and bursts out laughing.
"Well, I can't disturb you from resting anymore. Remember to come to me if you get into trouble. We are family and there's nothing to be ashamed of." Waving his hand, Xiao Zhan turns back and strides towards the front yard.
"Damn it, I still have to deal with those old men. It's only 40,000 gold coins, and these misers should have lost their temper." Xiao Zhan curses in a low voice, but Xiao Yan still heard it in silent darkness.
Looking at Xiao Zhan's back disappearing into the darkness, Xiao Yan touched his nose, smiled and whispered, "Don't worry, father, I will make those people shut up with fact. Three years ago I could make them look up to me, and I will still make it three years later!"
Standing in the doorway for a long time, Xiao Yan puts away the white jade bottle and glances at the corner and teased, "Xun'er, it's fun to eavesdrop on us, isn't it?"
"Brother, your sense is really acute." A purple dressed girl steps out from the corner, slightly tilting her head, with a smile on her beautiful face.
Looking at the young girl with a playful face, Xiao Yan shakes his head reluctantly.
"Where did you go this afternoon?"Stepping near gently, Xun asks with a smile.
"I went out for a casual stroll."
"Really?" With her watery eyes looking up and down, Xun suddenly stepped forward, and then she slightly bent her body, with her pretty wrinkling: "I smell the perfume of some woman."
"Ahem, stop talking nonsense, there is no smell of women." His tender face gets slightly red. Fortunately it's hard to notice in the darkness.
"Hee hee." Satisfied to see Xiao Yan's embarrassment, Xun bursts out a bell-like giggling. After a while she stops and says softly: "I also heard Uncle Xiao's words just now, and I believe...if you really want to go on the Sect of Cloud and Mist, maybe I can help you ..."
Hearing this, Xiao Yan blinks his eyes and stares at the young girl's pretty little face.
Under Xiao Yan's unconstrained gaze, a touch of slight flush flash through Xun's pretty little face, and she whispers in anger, " Why are you looking at me?"
"Hehehe, it is really rare to see you blush." A moment later, Xiao Yan laughs.
Xun rolls her eyes and mutters, "You are the only one who dare stare at me like that."
"Well, well, have some confidence in your brother. Although the Clan of Cloud and Mist is powerful, I am still young, and there is plenty of time for me to revenge. I think Yun Yun, who teaches her apprentice Nalan Yanran to a spoiled kid, is not a concern for me."Xiao Yan smiles and fiddles with the young girl's hair.
"Well, it's late, you have to go back and rest."
Looking at Xiao Yan, who is waving his hand, Xun shakes her head reluctantly, but still slowly steps into the darkness under Xiao Yan's eyesight.
Turning around a corner, Xun hears the quarreling between Xiao Zhan and other elders from the room, and their focus is still on Xiao Zhan's spending 40,000 gold coins on an elixir.
Standing still for a while, Xun slightly frowns, and then with a slight sigh, she takes out a purple gold card.
With a flick on the purple and gold card, the gold card flies into the noisy room like a golden light.
Casually glancing at the room, which suddenly becomes quiet, Xun says indifferently, "These money are for Elixir: Foundation-laying Liquid. Consider it as a present from me. There are 100,000 gold coins in this card, you elders don't need to find fault with Uncle Xiao."
The room keeps silent for a moment, and a few minutes later the three elders reluctantly accepted it with a wry smile.
