"Well then! The domineering leader falls in love with me, and the plan officially begins!" Xu Xin cheered.
......
The night before the decisive battle.
"Yao Yan, in a few days, go to Yunlan Sect, be careful. Also... defeat Nalan Yan and then... protect yourself."
Xiao Yan was lying on the bed, lost in thought as he recalled what Yun Zhi had said to him when they separated a few days ago while she was sorting out his clothes.
He also had no idea why Yun Zhi knew that he was Xiao Yan, and seemed to know his background and purpose very clearly. This made him, who had been practicing alone for three years and was mature and calm, feel a little uneasy, as if things were not that simple.
But he is Xiao Yan after all, Xiao Yan who has struggled for three years to wash away his own shame. He must get rid of this shame, and he must do it in front of the entire Yunlan Sect and the strong men of the Jia Ma Empire to wash away the humiliation he and the Xiao family suffered in the past.
......
"Are you nervous?"
In the chat group, Xu Xin was asking Yun Yun who was sitting on the seat of the Sect Master on the Stone Platform. The other members of the chat group were standing at the back, their auras restrained to the level of Dou Wang. When Yun Yun answered the questions of the elders of the Yunlan Sect, she just said that they were friends she met while traveling.
"I was very nervous yesterday, but today I feel a little relaxed..." Yun Yun sat at the very top, wearing a black gauze hat. Her true face could no longer be seen from the outside.
All the male group members kept silent. Women are petty and if you say something wrong and they hold a grudge against you, it will be a big trouble.
Nalan Yanran stood on the side of the stone platform, looking at her master's attire, her mind full of questions. This group of people inexplicably appeared in the back mountain yesterday, and she was scolded for it. Even the evening class that her master was teaching her was absent as an exception. All signs revealed that something was unusual.
Today was the day of her three-year agreement with Xiao Yan. She could only put aside all distractions temporarily and accept Xiao Yan's challenge.
She didn't think she would lose. In her impression, Xiao Yan was just a kid from a small country town. Maybe her recklessness hurt him, but after today, nothing mattered anymore.
After dealing with the problem with the stranger Xiao Yan, she can go out and train with Yan Xiao.
Yan Xiao, Xiao Yan, Nalan Yanran smiled slightly. If the names were reversed, the difference between that person would be like heaven and earth. Thinking of this, her mind became dazed again.
After a while, strong men from the Gama Empire arrived one after another around the square, some sitting on the seats, and some standing on the tops of the surrounding trees.
There is no need to describe the status of the Yunlan Sect in the Jia Ma Empire. After three years of preparation, the news of Nalan Yanran and Xiao Yan breaking off their engagement has already spread throughout the Jia Ma Empire. Those who want to watch the fun, no matter how big the event, have all gathered here.
"coming."
I don't know who in the field called out, but I heard a sound of footsteps coming from the stone steps leading to the Yunlan Sect.
A young man wearing a black robe and carrying a black ruler gradually came into everyone's sight.
As Xiao Yan climbed the stairs slowly and finally arrived at the square, Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran looked at each other.
"Xiao family, Xiao Yan." Xiao Yan, who has now become mature and steady, did not say anything else. His quiet voice carried a hint of excitement of being reborn.
"Xiao..."
Yao Chen in the soul ring was a Dou Zun in his previous life. After looking around the whole place, he noticed something unusual about Shi Heng and others on the stone platform. The aura of some of them could rival that of a Dou Zong powerhouse.
The key point is that he recognized Yun Yun, so he wanted to remind Xiao Yan.
"Don't worry, we won't interfere. There's no need to remind Xiao Yan." Xu Qian'an is the strongest at the moment. When he found out that Yao Chen wanted to inform on the secret, he directly shocked Yao Chen and even used secret voice transmission to stop Yao Chen's reminder.
Yao Chen was horrified. When did such a powerful person appear in the Yunlan Sect? He was even more terrifying than the Douluo he had seen in his lifetime.
In the chat group.
"Fortunately, fortunately, Yao Chen was missed. He almost got into trouble. Thank you, King Xu Hai!" Yun Yun said in the group.
"You're welcome. When this is over, give me a few tens of thousands of gold coins and I'll go to the imperial capital... to buy things." Xu Qian'an replied.
"Ahem, don't talk." Shi Heng said.
In the field.
Nalan Yanran got off the stone platform and stood in the square. She looked at Xiao Yan with a complicated expression and replied: "Nalan family, Nalan Yanran..."
Some of the powerful men from the Jia Ma Empire who were watching had all dealt with Xiao Yan's incarnation of the Rock Owl. At this moment, they stared at Xiao Yan, and seemed to feel an indescribable sense of familiarity, and all showed a thoughtful look.
Yun Leng in a white robe stood on the stone platform, asked Yun Yun at the top for instructions, and then said to Xiao Yan below the stage: "This three-year competition is intended for learning from each other, and it's time..."
"Life and death are all left to fate." Xiao Yan directly interrupted Yun Leng's words, and his indifferent voice echoed throughout the venue.
When Yun Yun heard Xiao Yan's words, her beautiful eyes darkened. She knew that the shame and frustration that Xiao Yan had suppressed for three years could not be dispelled by her companionship over the past few months.
Yun Leng's face darkened when Xiao Yan interrupted him. He asked Yun Yun for instructions again and said, "Then it's up to you. Life and death are up to fate!"
Nalan Yanran's pretty face turned cold. Xiao Yan's harsh words had no effect on her. Besides, she had a clear conscience and loved freedom by nature. Not to mention that she was the young master of the Yunlan Sect. It was impossible for her to marry a stranger.
"what ever."
The two of them argued for a few sentences without any result, and after Xiao Yan once again forcibly interrupted Yun Leng's words.
"Let's fight! Nalan Yanran! It's been three years!" Xiao Yan turned into a black shadow, and the low roar that had been suppressed for three years could not help but come out from his throat.
Looking at the two people fighting in the field, Shi Heng shrugged and said, "Look, after three years of enduring humiliation, he has become a volcano that has accumulated strength. Only by defeating Nalan Yanran can he calm down."
Yun Yun did not answer Shi Heng's words. She was entangled in love and hate, and could only blame herself for spoiling Nalan Yanran.
The battle on the field was evenly matched, a man and a woman were gradually injured, and an accident also occurred at this time.
"Yun Yun! Is Xiao Yan's Sea Heart Armor still on his body?" Shi Heng asked in surprise. Could this matter also be considered a leak?
Several male group members looked at Yun Yun strangely, and Yun Yun had to blush, but the female group members did not show any surprise.
As expected, as Xiao Yan's black robe was gradually pierced by Nalan Yanran, the unique sea blue color of the Sea Heart Armor appeared in the eyes of the onlookers.
“Master, this isn’t…” Yun Leng was interrupted by Yun Yun before he could finish his words.
"Well, no need to say more." Yun Yun said in a calm tone.
Yun Leng was stunned. He had never expected this to happen. The Sea Heart Armor was a treasure of the Yun Lan Sect, and it had always been worn by the Sect Master Yun Yun. Now this armor appeared on Xiao Yan, and Yun Yun had specially worn a veil today. All these signs made him shudder.
Dan King Gu He was not much better. After all, he had a crush on Yun Yun. He inquired about Yun Yun's situation and knew that Yun Yun had this armor, but he was just suspicious. After all, there were many treasures in the world, and there were similar ones. There was no reason for the Sea Heart Armor to appear on Xiao Yan. Dan King Gu He shook his head and stopped thinking about it, but he had already felt that something was wrong.
During the battle, Nalan Yanran felt that the inner armor Xiao Yan was wearing was quite familiar, and it was suspected to be the Hai Xin Armor worn by her master. But how could this be possible? She dispelled the absurd thoughts in her mind. In the battle, she could not afford to think about it too much, and just thought it was a coincidence.
The fight between the two had reached a fever pitch. Seeing that neither of them could defeat the other, Nalan Yanran looked at Xiao Yan deeply. She was the first to lose her patience and used the unique skills taught to her by Yun Yun.
"The Ultimate Wind: The Sunset Shines!"
Xiao Yan knew that the decisive battle had come to a crucial moment. He did not care that Nalan Yanran would see through his Rock Owl incarnation, and used his unique skill of combining purple fire and blue lotus earth core fire, the Buddha's wrath lotus.
The ultimate move was ready, but Nalan Yanran could never have dreamed that she would be able to see the familiar movement of Yanxiao spitting out purple fire and the green flame in his hand on Xiao Yan. The result shocked her to the point of trembling and then numbness all over.
Xiao Yan...Yan Xiao, the two gradually overlapped at this moment.
The onlookers were all shocked. They had never expected that Xiao Yan was the Rock Owl who had defeated countless alchemists!
The ominous feeling in Dan Wang Gu He's heart continued to grow. The blue strange fire... the blue lotus earth core fire... the desert... the cloud rhyme... the sea heart armor, the terrible thoughts in his mind kept reminding him of the key points, but he had to escape, this suffocating result.
Nalan Yanran thought that Xiao Yan deliberately transformed into a rock owl and then met her, in order to avenge the humiliation of breaking off the engagement three years ago.
However, it was too late to undo what had happened. She suddenly used a special skill that was beyond her control. She had no control over Sunset Yao at all. She could only watch as her special skill hit the figure she had fallen in love with and the person she had been engaged to but had broken off the engagement with.
Xiao Yan's Buddha's Fury Lotus had also been fully charged and was ready to be released with a flick of his finger.
With a loud bang, the two's ultimate moves collided in the air, canceling and colliding with each other. The situation gradually became clear. Nalan Yanran was one step behind after all. Since Xiao Yan possessed flying fighting skills, she could only be used as a living target in the air, allowing the strange fire from the collision of ultimate moves to attack her, and finally she was injured first.
"Sect Master..." Yun Ling didn't know what to do at this moment. As the great elder of Yunlan Sect, one side was the young sect master, and the other side was the suspected lover of the sect master? No matter who he favored, it would be a troublesome thing.
"Just take good protection." Yun Yun's voice was a little nervous at this moment. After all, one side was her beloved disciple, and the other side was her lover. No matter who got hurt, she would feel bad.
"Yes..." Yun Leng has already given up. He doesn't care about this matter anymore. Whoever wants to care can do it.
Yao Chen in the soul ring shook his head. He had never cared much about the feelings of his beloved disciple, but at this moment, he couldn't help but feel overwhelmed. He could only shake his head and smile bitterly, sighing secretly, "Disciple, you'll have to fend for yourself in the future."
"It's over...Nalan...Yanran." Xiao Yan flew above Nalan Yanran. Nalan Yanran was already exhausted and had no power to fight back.
When Xiao Yan's emotions that had been suppressed for three years were finally released, his voice became a little hoarse. He had endured three years of hard training just to defeat the woman in front of him.
Nalan Yanran looked at Xiao Yan's face which was approaching her. Xiao Yan and Yan Xiao overlapped, her eyes gradually became blurred, and a hint of self-mockery appeared on her face.
"Is this your revenge... Building a man that fascinates me... and then breaking it... I am indeed short-sighted... However, if I could go back in time, I would still choose to break off the engagement..."
Xiao Yan looked at Nalan Yanran calmly, and gently placed his palm on her chest. He whispered in Nalan Yanran's ear: "I never said there was anything wrong with you breaking off the engagement, it's just... the way you chose was wrong. Unfortunately, you, who are so proud, have never thought about this..."
"Okay, you win, stop!" Yun Yun's soft and trembling voice sounded from the top of the stone platform.
coming!
Shi Heng and his group were waiting for this moment. The love-hate relationship between Yun Yun and Xiao Yan. With their intervention, things went in another direction.
Xiao Yan turned around suddenly, and the figure on the stone platform had disappeared. He was horrified, and felt that the owner of the voice was very familiar.
Yun Yun had already flown close to the two of them, hugged her beloved disciple with one hand, and then passed by Xiao Yan. What happened next was that Nalan Yanran would draw her sword and commit suicide. She didn't dare to gamble at this moment. If something went wrong, she would regret it.
"Are you Yunzhi?" Xiao Yan's slightly hoarse voice resounded throughout the venue. Three years of shame were washed away, but one wave of troubles arose. He remembered what Yunzhi said when they parted a few days ago, and the answer was obvious.
The crowd watching had not yet recovered from the shock of Xiao Yan's victory. They were shocked again. They did not expect that there would be a turn of events.
Yun Yun, the leader of Yun Lan Sect, knows Xiao Yan? !
Beside the stone platform, the terrified Ge Ye walked behind Yun Leng and reported to him what he had guessed: "Grand Elder, Mo Cheng's death was caused by Xiao Yan!"
Yun Leng glared at Ge Ye and shouted angrily, "Didn't you see the Sect Master was here? What's the point of reporting to me?"
He had completely given up. He ignored the elders around him who were full of questions and simply sat on the chair with his eyes closed, without responding to any voices from the outside world.
Dan Wang Gu He's face turned pale, and he took a few steps back. His chest felt like a huge stone was blocking it, and the truth made it difficult for him to breathe. The result he least wanted still happened. The person he had always admired, without knowing when, already had someone in his heart. He looked at the beautiful figure in the field in disbelief, and clenched his arms forward, as if to grasp the last ray of hope.
Hai Bodong was also shocked. He had seen Yun Yun frequently in the past few months and was familiar with her voice. Moreover, Yun Yun was a descendant of the sect leader. Xiao Yan was so lucky! Hai Bodong smiled bitterly and shook his head. The things in this world were too outrageous. Now he had decided not to intervene. Xiao Yan had to bear the consequences of his own family affairs.
All the members of the chat group smiled.
Well, things have just begun!
"You are Yunzhi!" Xiao Yan had the beautiful figure of Nalan Yanran in front of him. He had been with her almost every day for the past month. Even if she was wearing a veil, how could he not recognize her?
Even though they were separated for a short time when they went to the Mo Mansion, it was he and Yun Zhi who defeated the Dou Huang who appeared afterwards. Because of this, the Hai Xin Armor was not broken, and now he has been wearing it as a close-fitting inner armor.
Nalan Yanran felt lost, and gradually came to her senses from the frustration of being defeated by Xiao Yan and the impact of Xiao Yan's dual identity.
At this time, Yan Xiao, or Xiao Yan, was heard questioning his beloved master, calling him Yun Zhi.
She looked at Xiao Yan's figure in a daze. The familiar sea blue color of the place where she pierced his upper body was so eye-catching at this moment.
She looked at her master again. Seeing that his attire was different from usual, her heart was struck by thunderbolts. Her chest felt extremely stuffy and she felt a sweetness in her throat due to anger. She spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
"Yanran!" Yun Yun exclaimed in a gentle and panicked voice. At the moment, she was unable to take care of her lover and could only stabilize her disciple's injuries first.
"Yunzhi!" Seeing the panicked Yun Yun, Xiao Yan ran directly to the two girls. Without caring about anything else, he took out the elixir he had refined and stuffed it into the mouth of the unconscious Nalan Yanran.
Yao Chen in the soul ring had also sorted out the cause and effect. Having pursued the way of alchemy all his life, he now felt that his disciple's performance was particularly exciting.
All the powerful people from the Jiama Empire who were watching were not stupid people. The matter between Xiao Yan and the master and disciple of the Yunlan Sect was not over yet.
