The morning sun shone into the vast courtyard, through the dense foliage, scattered on the ground, and beyond the courtyard, there were figures flickering, and from time to time there were wagons full of goods, rolling up dust and galloping into the distance.

"Cousin, are you up?"

The girl's ethereal voice resounded in the courtyard, and then she entered the room through the wooden window.

His eyes slowly opened, Xiao Yang let out a sigh of relief, woke up Chiyan, who was sleeping on his chest, and immediately opened the door with sleepy eyes.

Outside the door, it was naturally Xiao Qing with green vines.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Yang asked with some surprise.

"Cousin, have you heard that the Xiao family invited an alchemist last night?" Xiao Qing's pretty cheeks were obviously full of excitement.

"Alchemist?" Xiao Yang looked at Xiao Qing incredulously, if he hadn't known last night that he also had the possibility of becoming an alchemist, I was afraid that he would be even more shocked now.

After all, no matter where they are, alchemists are the most noble existences.

"That's right, it was invited by the second elder at a great price, it seems to be called Fu Yan. Xiao Qingming's eyes flashed slightly, and he said.

Fu Yan?

Hearing this name, Xiao Yang not only did not have the slightest joy, but frowned slightly, that Fu Yan's reputation is not good in Guyang City, especially that arrogant character, it is easy to cause people to be disgusted.

"Then Fu Yan, are you here at Xiao's house now?" Xiao Yang suddenly looked at Xiao Qing.

"Well, in this way, the medicinal liquid we use for cultivation will not have to worry about it in the future. Xiao Qing was quite excited, there was an alchemist in the family, which was of great benefit to them juniors.

Nodding slightly, Xiao Yang woke up Chi Yan, who was still asleep, and walked with Xiao Qing towards the direction of the living room, where the Xiao family usually entertained guests.

Outside the usual sparse welcome room, at this time, it was surrounded by a large number of Xiao family members, and one after another, with a little heat and curiosity, cast their eyes on the white-robed figure in the welcome room.

The man in the white robe was obviously an old man, and in the face of many eyes, his eyes were still indifferent, as if everything that happened around him had nothing to do with him.

"I've never seen the earthly buns. Beside the old man, there was still a young man, looking at the figure outside the door, and pursed his lips disdainfully.

"Isn't that the Bai family? Xiao Yang's eyes narrowed slightly, this young man he knew, it was Bai Li, the grandson of Bai Shan, not long ago, he had seen the portraits of the main members of the Bai family in Xiao Lie's study.

On the seat, Fu Yan raised his eyelids casually, and said softly: "Originally, your Xiao family didn't want to move me, but since my disciple came out to speak, then it is not impossible to be your offering, it is just a reward, I hope the Xiao family has the ability to pay it off on time." ”

"That's nature. Hearing this, Xiao He's eyes flashed with joy, and said, "As long as you are willing to make a move, the reward is negotiable." ”

During the conversation between the two, Bai Li's gaze swept over the faces of the Xiao family in turn, and finally, suddenly stared at Xiao Qing's pretty face, and a touch of surprise surged on.

"I didn't expect this little Xiao family to have such a beauty, it seems that this trip is really not in vain. Bai Li left the corner of his mouth, provoking a faint arc, and the undisguised aggressive gaze made Xiao Qing feel quite uncomfortable.

The pupils of his eyes flickered slightly, Xiao Yang sneered in his heart, and stepped in front of Xiao Qing.

"Who are you?" The line of sight was suddenly disturbed, and Bai Li's face was suddenly covered with a layer of haze.

"Oh, I see, isn't this Xiao Yang, the young head of the Xiao family. Bai Li nodded suddenly and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's the same as what Brother Bai Ming said, Flame Fox, even the inferior servants in our Bai family can't look down on you, but I didn't expect you to be like a baby, always with you." ”

When the words fell, Xiao Qing's face turned cold almost instantly, and she was about to speak, but she saw Xiao Yang suddenly take a step forward and said lightly: "People look okay, but their mouths are quite stinky, I really don't know, the younger generation of the Bai family is as uneducated as you." ”

"Do you want to die?" The smile on Bai Li's face froze little by little, and his voice became extremely cold.

"Young people are angry. Fu Yan, who had been sitting expressionlessly on the chair, picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and then spit it out violently, frowning: "What kind of broken tea is this, is it for people to drink!"

"It's just a small family, maybe they can't even eat enough, and being able to drink tea is already rare for them. Bai Li sneered, and there was a subtle sarcasm in his voice.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yang's heart gradually became cold, he knew how could the Xiao family suddenly invite an alchemist, and now he has completely understood that Fu Yan is just the person the Bai family found to humiliate the Xiao family, that Bai Ming, is really ruthless, I really don't know what gap the Bai family and the Xiao family had before, and it actually became such a situation today.

The tea stains on the ground had not dried, but the faces of everyone in the Xiao family had become extremely difficult to look at, and Fu Yan's actions were undoubtedly a slap in the face of each of them.

"Although the tea of the Xiao family is not good, not everyone can vomit, Mr. Fu, there are people outside the world, there is heaven outside the sky, although the alchemist is precious, but there is not only one in the huge Guyang City. Xiao Yang chuckled and looked at Fu Yan, since he knew that the other party was friend or foe, then he didn't have to show any more affection.

As soon as the voice fell, the audience fell silent instantly, and everyone stared blankly at Xiao Yang, this guy actually provoked an alchemist in public, although the provocation did not start with him.

"It's true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. Fu Yan didn't have the slightest sign of anger on his face, he just shook his head and smiled, Xiao Yang's words obviously didn't stir up any waves in his heart, he just listened to it as a joke, in this Guyang City, besides him, who else could the Xiao family invite?

"Xiao Yang, you go down!" Second Elder Xiao He smiled bitterly in his heart, although he was also very disgusted with Fu Yan, but the alchemist was an alchemist after all, and his status was transcendent, if it weren't for this layer of skin, he would have torn Fu Yan to pieces who had been throwing his face at him.

"It's ridiculous that a little spirit disciple dares to make a big fuss here. Seeing Xiao Yang turn around, Bai Li's sarcastic voice rang out in the audience.

At the moment when Bai Li's words fell, Xiao Yang's footsteps suddenly stopped, and then he slowly turned around, and the voice without the slightest emotion slowly came out of his mouth.

"You're really annoying, in the future at the Xiao family, you'd better take a detour when you see me, otherwise, I'm really likely to lose control and ask someone to slaughter you." ”

The moment Xiao Yang's voice fell, the younger generation of the Xiao family began to stir, and more than a dozen ill-intentioned figures gradually surged towards Bai Li, and the battle made the latter's face quite ugly.

"Remember, the surname of this territory is Xiao, not Bai. After finishing speaking, Xiao Yang no longer had the slightest nonsense, and turned to leave.

"Xiao Yang, you are very good, I hope that there are so many people around you every day. ”

Bai Li stared at Xiao Yang's back viciously, a touch of calmness, flashing in his pupils.
