Chapter 139: When You Get to Canaan Academy, Mention My Name and I'll Cover You!

Xiao Ze unfolded his energy wings and suddenly looked at Xiao Yan.

"Big brother, was that previous presence you?"

"Previous presence?" Xiao Yan still hadn't fully reacted, as it was hard for him to associate the mysterious figure from a month ago with Xiao Ze.

"Earlier, I encountered Queen Medusa chasing a powerful warrior. That warrior was heading towards me, but luckily I was faster."

Hearing these words, Xiao Yan immediately remembered.

"That mysterious warrior from a month ago was you?"

Xiao Ze patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder.

"Thanks to you distracting Queen Medusa, I was able to venture deeper into the desert and search for treasures."

Xiao Yan scratched his head, a little embarrassed, and let out a laugh. In reality, he hadn't tried to distract Queen Medusa but rather divert the problem elsewhere...

But from Xiao Ze's expression, it seemed he also knew what Xiao Yan's intentions were at that moment.

Xiao Yan no longer hid his flying ability and displayed it, following Xiao Ze towards a city in the Jia Ma Empire.

As they flew, Xiao Ze glanced at Xiao Yan's flying technique, which had mysterious inscriptions and a golden glow. Although Xiao Ze had taken the Purple Cloud Wings first, it seemed his big brother had also acquired another flying technique.

During the past month, really interesting things had happened.

A month ago, Xiao Ze took advantage of Queen Medusa's pursuit of Xiao Yan to venture into the desert and search for treasures. Now, Xiao Yan was near the same place looking for traces of celestial fire, thanks to Xiao Ze distracting Queen Medusa.

They arrived at a city in the Jia Ma Empire, and Xiao Yan calmed down.

They found an inn and rented a quiet room to talk.

After hearing Xiao Ze's explanation, Xiao Yan became serious.

"I didn't know our family had that history. So, now the Xiao family has moved to Canaan City, where Canaan Academy is located?"

Xiao Ze nodded slightly. Xiao Yan exhaled deeply. He needed time to process this important news.

Yao Lao didn't think much of the story; he was only impressed by Xiao Ze's talent for cultivation.

With more interaction, Yao Lao confirmed Xiao Ze's power: a three-star battle emperor! If it weren't for Xiao Yan assuring him that this was his younger brother, Yao Lao would have thought it was an old monster in disguise.

A battle emperor at fourteen years old, achieved solely by his own effort. Not even in ancient hidden families had such a thing been seen.

Yao Lao recalled his own family, and with a dark expression, sighed and stopped thinking about it.

"Big brother, do you remember Nalan Yanran, with whom you had an engagement?"

Xiao Yan was a bit surprised, frowning as he tried to remember. Finally, he understood.

"Are you talking about the engagement my grandfather and the patriarch of the Nalan family, Nalan Jie, agreed upon?"

"Yes, after the Xiao family moved, I stayed for a while in Wu Tan City, and the eldest daughter of the Nalan family came to see me."

With Xiao Yan frowning, Xiao Ze continued.

"Nalan Yanran was accepted as a disciple by the leader of the Yun Lan Sect and is destined to become the next leader of the sect. Therefore, she wants... to cancel the engagement."

Xiao Ze paused for a moment before saying the words "cancel the engagement."

Then, he detailed what had happened.

Xiao Yan took a deep breath and said:

"Good thing it was you who received her. If it had been my father or me, we would have been intimidated by her influence."

"And what do you think about canceling the engagement?" asked Xiao Ze.

Xiao Yan's situation was very different from the original development of the story. Without the stimulation of the engagement break with Nalan Yanran, he had gone out to train on his own.

This surprised Xiao Ze, who wondered what the reason was.

"What can you do? If she wants to cancel the engagement, let her," said Xiao Yan indifferently, reclining and putting his hands behind his head.

"Even though our family can now match the Nalan family thanks to you, I don't want to force anyone into anything. After all, a forced marriage won't be happy."

Xiao Yan didn't give it much importance, unlike the seriousness with which he had taken family matters. He seemed relaxed.

"Besides, I'm not interested in Nalan Yanran. Although the Nalan family is prominent and Nalan Yanran is beautiful, her arrogant attitude isn't for me."

"Now I'm focused on my training, with no time for romantic relationships."

Xiao Ze was astonished. What had happened to Xiao Yan? Had he adopted the principle of "no women in the heart, the path of cultivation will be clear"?

"Then, if you have time, you can go cancel the engagement. Or if you want, I can go to the capital."

Xiao Yan thought for a moment and replied:

"Now I don't have much to do, I'm training outside. Going to the capital doesn't matter to me."

"By the way, I forgot to ask, what is your cultivation level now?"

Xiao Yan said it casually.

"Now? A three-star battle emperor. I had an opportunity in the desert and managed to advance from the peak of battle king to battle emperor."

Xiao Yan was stunned. How was it possible that the difference between them was getting bigger?

He grabbed the teacup with a trembling hand, not noticing that he spilled a bit.

"Are you okay?" Xiao Ze asked, concerned.

"Yes, I'm just surprised."

After two years at Canaan Academy, Xiao Ze had reached the peak of battle king and then, through an opportunity, became a three-star battle emperor.

Suddenly, Xiao Yan had a revelation and grabbed Xiao Ze's hand.

"Is the teaching at Canaan Academy that good?"

"Uh... Canaan Academy has its merits."

"I also want to go to Canaan Academy to train!"

Xiao Yan saw in it the key to Xiao Ze's rapid progress and hurried to say it.

Xiao Ze was surprised by the leap in Xiao Yan's thinking but quickly responded.

"Sure, I am an elder of Canaan Academy, I can get you directly into the core training."

"If you have any problem, just mention my name."

Xiao Ze said it seriously, while Xiao Yan was dumbfounded. Had he become an elder of Canaan Academy in just two years?

"Really? Thank you, younger brother!"

"Between brothers, there's no need to thank."

Xiao Ze patted his hand, reassuring him.

Thus, the two talked all night, sharing their experiences.

Compared to Xiao Ze's tranquil life at Canaan Academy, Xiao Yan's adventures were intense, with several close encounters with death.
