Chapter 8 Don't Hit Someone in the Face

"Ms. Nalan, why are you so angry? Business is not about kindness and righteousness~"

Looking at Nalan Yanran who looked like she wanted to bite someone, Xiao Feng shrugged helplessly and said, "You are unwilling to let old man Nalan Jie cancel the engagement, and you are unwilling to give more compensation. You can't expect to get it for free, right?"

"Puff!"

A somewhat abrupt laugh suddenly came from the corner of the reception hall.

Facing everyone's gazes, Xiao Xun'er showed an innocent expression, pretended to be calm, raised the book, and covered the corners of her mouth that she could hardly suppress.

Seeing this, Nalan Yanran glared at Xiao Xun'er in anger, then resisted the urge to bite her and said, "Xiao Feng, do you think that you can make me back down by proposing these excessive compensation conditions? This will only make me look down on you even more. Don't you think you are very childish?"

"Well! Since you don't accept these two methods, then we can only rely on strength to speak."

Xiao Feng sighed helplessly, looked directly into Nalan Yanran's eyes and said, "As long as you can defeat me, I will agree to cancel the engagement with you!"

"really?"

When Nalan Yanran heard this, she almost thought she had heard it wrong.

After Nalan Yanran and the others entered Wutan City yesterday, Elder Ge Ye specially sent someone to inquire about the news about the Xiao family, including the news that Xiao Feng had broken through to a one-star fighter.

Although Xiao Feng's talent for cultivation is already very good, there is still some gap compared to Nalan Yanran.

With Nalan Yanran's cultivation as a three-star fighter, she could have surpassed Xiao Feng in terms of cultivation.

Moreover, the power of her cultivation and fighting skills was far superior to that of Xiao Feng, so how could Xiao Feng be her opponent?

That was why Nalan Yanran suspected that she had heard wrongly. She did not think that Xiao Feng would propose such a losing bet.

"I, Xiao Feng, always stick to my words. As long as you can defeat me, I will agree to cancel the engagement with you."

Xiao Feng was halfway through his words when he suddenly changed the subject and said, "But if you lose, in addition to the marriage contract remaining the same, you must also keep these two pills. That will be your apology to the Xiao family at that time."

"Okay! It's a deal!"

Nalan Yanran agreed without hesitation. She had absolute confidence in her own abilities.

If she was still no match for Xiao Feng even though her own cultivation, skills, and fighting abilities were superior to his, then she would not have the face to mention canceling the engagement.

"Then let's go out and fight!"

Xiao Feng made a "please" gesture towards Nalan Yanran, and said with a hint of sarcasm: "The space in the living room is too small. I'm afraid you will make excuses if you lose later."

"you..."

Nalan Yanran snorted coldly and said, "I will tear your stinky mouth apart later!"

Seeing Xiao Feng and Nalan Yanran both walked out, Xiao Zhan and the others hurriedly followed.

"bass!"

Nalan Yanran waved her white hand, and a light green sword suddenly appeared in her palm out of thin air.

"Xiao Feng, to be honest, your cultivation talent is not much weaker than mine. It's a pity that the Xiao family is too small. You will definitely lose this battle!"

Nalan Yanran tightly grasped the hilt of the sword, her jade-white chin slightly raised, like a proud swan.

"Nalan Yanran, you talk too much nonsense!"

Xiao Feng suddenly shouted loudly, and exerted force with his feet, like an angry bull, charging towards Nalan Yanran head-on.

When Nalan Yanran saw this scene, a hint of disdain flashed in her beautiful eyes, and the long sword in her hand stabbed towards Xiao Feng's neck as fast as lightning.

Because Nalan Yanran also practiced wind-attributed martial arts, and her martial arts and fighting skills had reached the advanced level of the Xuan level, her speed was faster than Xiao Feng.

I won this battle!

Just when the sword in Nalan Yanran's hand was about to pierce Xiao Feng's neck, he suddenly raised his left arm.

"Puff!"

Accompanied by the sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh and blood, Xiao Feng's left arm was directly pierced by the sword.

Nalan Yanran's pupils suddenly shrank, and she subconsciously wanted to draw back the sword, and her body movements couldn't help but pause slightly.

However, Xiao Feng did not give Nalan Yanran a chance to react. He used his left arm to forcibly restrain the sword, and swung his right hand mercilessly, slapping Nalan Yanran's pretty face hard.

"Bang!!!"

Amid the surprised and delighted gazes of the crowd, Nalan Yanran was knocked to the ground by Xiao Feng's powerful blow, and her whole body was stunned.

"Wind!"

"Brother Feng!"

"Third brother!"

Xiao Zhan and the others couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise. They hurried to Xiao Feng and checked the injury on his arm.

Looking at Xiao Feng's left arm that was completely pierced and almost broken in two, Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yan's faces were as gloomy as water, and Xiao Xun'er was so anxious that she was about to cry.

"Feng...Brother Feng, it's okay. Xun'er will definitely be able to cure you."

Xiao Xun'er spoke in a trembling voice as she took out a healing pill from her storage ring that was enough to regenerate a severed limb and prepared to stuff it into Xiao Feng's mouth.

"No need, it's just a minor injury!"

Xiao Feng grabbed Xiao Xun'er's wrist, endured the severe pain in his arm and comforted her: "Xun...Xun'er, don't worry, Brother Feng knows what's going on."

"Then...then I'll help you stop the bleeding first."

Xiao Xun'er said as she took out a roll of white bandage and tightly wrapped it around Xiao Feng's arm that was bleeding.

"…"

Nalan Yanran came back to her senses from her daze, subconsciously touched her swollen cheek, then looked at Xiao Feng's bloody arm, and couldn't help but screamed: "Madman! You madman!!!"

Just now, when Nalan Yanran launched the attack, although she stabbed Xiao Feng's neck with the sword, she had no intention of killing him.

According to Nalan Yanran's idea, her speed was faster than Xiao Feng, so she could put the sword on his neck first and win the battle calmly.

But what Nalan Yanran didn't expect was that Xiao Feng would actually choose this kind of fight where both sides would perish, and would rather take the risk of losing his arm and give her a big fight.

"Idiot! Do you think I'm playing house with you?!"

Xiao Feng turned his head abruptly and looked at Nalan Yanran, staring at her with vicious eyes and angrily scolded: "Can you use your pig brain to think carefully, if I really let you break off the engagement today, what will our Xiao family face? Our Xiao

family will not only become a laughing stock of the entire Jia Ma Empire, but also those forces that are hostile to our Xiao family, and those forces that want to please your Nalan family and Yun Lan Sect, will take the opportunity to add insult to injury.

By then, the entire Xiao family will be walking on thin ice, and if they are not careful, they will be in danger of being exterminated. So, let alone a mere arm, even if it costs my life, I must defeat you!"

"I..."

Upon hearing this, Nalan Yanran subconsciously wanted to refute, but when the words of defense came to her lips, she couldn't say them.
