The next day, there was no schedule for the Alchemist Conference, so Xiao Yan practiced in his room all day, and it was not until it was gradually dusk outside the window that he slowly opened his eyes, then got out of bed to wash, and prepared to go out.

It was already dark, and the lights in the courtyard and the streets outside the door were already lit up, and Qing Yan saw Xiao Yan going out and was about to speak, but Xiao Yan just put a finger against his lips.

"—shh

Xiao Yan smiled and said softly: "Don't disturb Miss Wan, Qinglu, I'll go out for a trip, and it may not be until late, so you don't have to worry about me." ”

"Anyway, the courtyard here is also very clean, so you don't need to be busy working every day, so let's focus more on cultivation."

Seeing this, Qing Yan nodded lightly, and watched Xiao Yan go out after putting on a mask.

After putting on the mask, Xiao Yan's aura also changed, and he became a genius who everyone in the imperial capital knew about it.

Leaving the quiet streets, Xiao Yan then came to the door of Nalan Mansion, the guards in front of the door cared about recognizing Xiao Yan, and naturally they would not stop him when they saw him coming, but shouted respectfully Mr. Yan Xiao.

It's just that Xiao Yan, who has that strong question in his heart, naturally does not have the leisure and leisure of the past, and is calm.

He hurriedly walked into the courtyard of the Nalan family, through the long corridor lit with lights, and in the courtyard of the inner house, under the blue night sky, there was the laughter of the people of the major families in the imperial capital.

Something like Nalan Ji's recovery is naturally regarded as a top priority by the Nalan family, and now that the head of the family has just recovered from the poison, it is natural to celebrate it, but it is not enough for the Nalan family to celebrate by themselves, it is natural to send out invitations and invite representatives of major family forces in the imperial capital.

This is not only to celebrate, but also to a certain extent of warning and demonstration, to tell those who are their current allies, but who may not be able to bite back from behind, take a good look at the pillars of the Nalan family, then this huge family is still standing.

And a few decades later, Nalan Yanran officially took over the burden of the Yunlan Sect from Yun Yun, and even if the Nalan family loses the pillar of Nalan Yan, it will only climb higher and higher.

Just at the first glance of entering the venue, Xiao Yan already had a general understanding of the stakes in his heart, and he couldn't help but shake his head gently, just feeling bored.

And seeing that Xiao Yan was coming, Concubine Ya, who had already come here, was naturally positive, and even brought Mitre Tengshan to Xiao Yan's face.

"Brother Yan Xiao is here, but it really makes my sister wait."

Concubine Ya looked at Xiao Yan who was wearing a mask, and not only asked, causing Xiao Yan to shake his head: "Cultivation is in the spirit for a while...... It's Sister Yafei, who came too quickly. ”

"After all, my sister is not a big idler like you, and she may not be able to finish running in a few places even if her feet don't touch the ground."

"Okay, no more kidding with you, I'll introduce you to ......"

It's just that before Concubine Ya finished speaking, the old man who came with Concubine Ya couldn't help but smile and waved his hand, and said, "Forget it, Concubine Ya, let me speak by myself...... Little friend of the rock owl, I've heard of it for a long time, it's a pleasure to meet you, I'm the great elder of the Mitre family, Mitre Tengshan. ”

"Nameless boy, how can it be remembered by the Great Elder Tengshan."

The intersection is like this, obviously they are just polite to each other, but they will tacitly maintain this false flattery.

"There are not many people who can make Dehai Lao treat him like this, there are not many in this Gama Empire, can Xiaoyou still be called nameless?" Mitre Tengshan asked with a smile.

"Hehe, little friend of the rock owl, please take a seat." Laughing and giving up his place, Mittel. Teng Shan stepped back a little, and after Xiao Yan sat down, he said with a smile: "Little friend of the Rock Owl, the results of this Alchemist Guild's test are very good, congratulations." ”

"Where? It's just luck. ”

Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly, and had to be hypocritically polite again.

"Little friend of the rock owl is in the capital of Gama during this time, if you need help, you can go directly to Concubine Ya, anyway, you and her are old acquaintances."

Mitre Tengshan said with a smile that Hai Lao had said before that he had a close relationship with nobles, but it may not be that kind of relationship in the future, and it will not prevent him from soaring into the sky in the future.

Therefore, Mitre Tengshan mostly only reminds with words, with a little pinch and hint, and knocks on the side, but does not clarify his purpose.

Not to mention that nine out of ten of the patriarchs were old foxes, shaking his head helplessly, Xiao Yan had to smile and echo twice.

As the head of the family, Mitre. Tengshan is naturally quite talkative, and there is still Concubine Ya occasionally smiling and interjecting during the banquet, and the atmosphere here seems to be extremely harmonious.

…………

On the other side of the Nalan family courtyard, there are the three heads of the Nalan family, Nalan Yan, his grandson and his son, Nalan Yan and Nalan Su are busy entertaining guests, while Nalan Yanran is quietly holding a wine glass and sitting quietly in a quiet corner on the side.

Because no one would deliberately talk to her at this time, Nalan Yanran simply ignored the noisy banquet and just sat bored and stared at the stars above her head.

The night sky is very beautiful, just because the lights in the imperial capital are prosperous, after all, the starry night above the head is a little darker, which makes people feel a little regretful.

Nalan Yanran rarely drinks alcohol, but she doesn't know how to drink, taking a sip of some punchy wine in the glass, Nalan Yanran inevitably frowned slightly, and then subconsciously looked at the figure on the other side of the courtyard who was talking happily with Concubine Ya and Mitre Tengshan at the moment.

She sighed lightly, couldn't help but shake her head, she didn't mean to bother Xiao Yan, after all, her identity is also annoying to go, so don't use your hot face to stick to other people's cold butts.

However, not long after Nalan Yanran thought like this, it seemed that he had already chatted with Mitre Tengshan, Xiao Yan slowly raised his head, and then subconsciously glanced around quickly, and then met Nalan Yanran's projected gaze.

Nalan Yanran couldn't help but be slightly stunned, her beautiful eyes inevitably had a little doubt in them, what is Xiao Yan doing? You can't come to talk to her on purpose, right?

However, Xiao Yan's next move verified Nalan Yanran's guess in her heart.

He looked at Nalan Yanran, and then walked slowly towards her impartially.

Although Nalan Yanran was puzzled, she was embarrassed to walk away at this time, so she waited for him to walk slowly, and couldn't help but guess what he was planning to do.

“…… Doesn't Miss Nalan walk around much? ”

Finally, Xiao Yan came to her and said.

Nalan Yanran only felt surprised, after all, when she got along with him a few days ago, Xiao Yan always consciously kept a distance from her, and her attitude was always cold, at most, she would reply to him if she asked him questions.

"What's so good about this? Aren't all these people walking around? ”

Nalan Yanran shrugged her shoulders, and then said, "If you are strong enough, these people will naturally come to meet you, and you don't need to bother yourself." ”

"Hey, it's like you'd say it."

"Really? Mr. Rock Owl. ”

Nalan Yanran asked rhetorically.

"It doesn't matter if it's not, just put that aside for now......"

Xiao Yan said, "I have some other questions I want to ask you...... Why did you act so familiar when we first met? Because we've seen it before? ”

"It's hard to say, I just think that Mr. Yan Xiao has an extraordinary temperament, and at a glance it is clear that he is not comparable to those mediocre and idle people."

Nalan Yanran shook her head, she had been learning from Yao Wan for a long time, and she was somewhat familiar with Yao Wan's ability to talk nonsense with her eyes open.

The corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and Xiao Yan was almost laughed at by Nalan Yanran's words.

But it doesn't matter, he is not the only one who can doubt her: "I know a companion who has also used swords, and I heard that Miss Nalan's worship in the Yunlan Sect is also a rare sword sect, I wonder if you can let me see a thing or two?" ”

“…… Okay, but it's not in a hurry, after a while, it will be a three-year appointment, and Mr. Rock Owl will be able to observe it at that time. ”

Nalan Yanran shook her head and said.

“…… Is it interesting for you to deceive people with such a shell? ”

Xiao Yan rubbed his eyebrows irritably, and asked bluntly.

"Who is meeting people in a shell now, is it difficult that I need to talk about it?"

Hearing this, Nalan Yanran couldn't help but look directly into Xiao Yan's eyes and asked word by word.

“…… Tut. ”

Xiao Yan smacked her lips, she didn't say anything else in the past three years, but she was even more sharp-toothed.

"As for my disguise, she got it for me, and what she said to me was that she hoped the two of us could get along."

Nalan Yanran said: "Anyway, you already have suspicions, so now I can't hide it from you, are you happy now?" ”

Xiao Yan looked at Nalan Yanran, and inevitably had some mixed feelings.

After all, this is the reunion of two people when they know each other's identities.

"Angry? If you're angry, then you go to her, but don't take your anger out on me. ”

Nalan Yanran looked at Xiao Yan, and could somewhat guess Xiao Yan's mood at the moment, and couldn't help but say.

And Xiao Yan, who was inevitably a little nameless in his heart, gradually calmed down when he heard Nalan Yanran's words.

Xiao Yan simply sat down in front of her and said, "Why am I angry? It was Yan Xiao who appeared in the Nalan family's compound, not Xiao Yan. ”

Nalan Yanran looked at him and shrugged her shoulders, she didn't want to have any conflicts with Xiao Yan in the first place, the three-year contract between them was enough to make people anxious, and she didn't need to have any more disputes with Xiao Yan.

When she said this, she actually just scared Xiao Yan, after all, the two of them knew that it was impossible for Xiao Yan to lose his temper at Yao Yan.

As a result, it seems to be working quite well.
