Chapter XVII
The sky was as dark as ink, but the Zhoujia compound was still brightly lit, mixed with human voices, lively and boiling, as if there was something big to discuss.
Mo Liang walked to the front of the compound, heard the sound of boiling people, and there were a few ripples in his calm eyes, and he also had some doubts in his heart, what happened to this Zhou family at such a late hour?
Mo Liang did not hesitate, walked in directly, walked into the main courtyard from the auxiliary courtyard, stopped, listened to the sound, and Mo Liang immediately analyzed that the source of the sound was in the middle courtyard.
"Conference room?"
What happened this time?
Mo Liang couldn't help but be more interested in what was happening, so without much hesitation, he just raised his foot and walked over.
Outside the conference room in Zhoujia's courtyard, a group of people formed a circle, many of them chattering, obviously discussing something.
Mo Liang was just about to walk over, but the door of the conference room suddenly opened, and a young man in a robe walked out of it.
Boat Flame!
And as Zhou Yan walked out, three strangers who Mo Liang had never seen before with angry expressions also walked out one after another, and then the head of the Zhou family, the elders in power, and a group of miscellaneous people.
Time goes back, back to the hour.
Zhou Yan came back from Bailuo Street, and the twenty spirit stones he received today had been squandered by him, and he bought a few Qi-level elixirs for breaking through the middle position, but this was still far from the number of elixirs he needed.
That person, with black hair like a waterfall, scattered over his shoulders, lined with a beautiful face, and a green coat added a bit of aura to her, as if he was an elf, full of vitality and vitality.
"Zhou Yan, grandpa told you to go to the conference room. β
The woman's voice is very pleasant, like the gurgling water in the mountains, but the tone is full of indifference and arrogance, which makes people feel blocked when they hear it.
However, Zhou Yan didn't care about the woman's attitude towards him at all, and asked with a gentle smile on his face.
"Sister Qingyi, I don't know what the elder is looking for me?"
Zhou Qingyi rolled his eyes, rolled his eyes, and said a little impatiently: "You'll know when you go." β
Then, she just waved her sleeves and floated away, and the graceful back made Zhou Yan's eyelids jump wildly.
After a long time, Zhou Yan, who had settled his mind, didn't think much about it anymore, and walked straight to the conference room, the elder called him, he couldn't shirk it, and looking at the posture of this matter, it was obviously not a trivial matter.
When he came to the door of the conference room, there were already a lot of clansmen gathered outside the conference room, Zhou Yan walked over and wanted to inquire about the situation, but he only knew that there were three richly dressed guests.
"These people are just here to see the excitement, and I can't find any useful information here, forget it, just go in and have a look, and I'll be able to adapt when the time comes." β
Thinking of this, Zhou Yan no longer hesitated to walk directly to the conference room, came to the door, knocked on the door respectfully, and then gently pushed the door in.
The hall is very spacious, and there are a lot of people in it, and the few who sit at the top are Zhou Ze and the four elders of the family.
Under the left hand of the five people, there sat some elders and elders in the family who had the right to speak and were not weak, and beside them, there were also some young people who had performed well in the family.
On the other side, there were three strangers sitting, and Zhou Yan didn't need to think about it to know that this incident would happen because of them.
Some puzzled eyes swept over the unfamiliar three, and among the three of them, there was an old man in a black star-patterned robe.
The old man was full of smiles, his face was full of energy, a pair of small eyes, but they were a flash of fine light, Zhou Yan's gaze moved down slightly, and finally stopped on the old man's chest, his heart suddenly froze, on the chest of the old man's robe, there were five clover marks, it turned out to be a Xuan-rank alchemist!
"Xuan-rank alchemist, this old man is actually a Xuan-rank alchemist?
Zhou Yan was amazed in his heart, he didn't expect that the identity of this old man would be so noble, the people who could become Xuan-rank alchemists were at least all famous alchemists, and that kind of strength would make any force rush to it, and suddenly seeing such a distinguished guest, it was no wonder that Zhou Yan was surprised.
Beside the old man, there was a pair of young men and women, who were wearing different pharmacist robes from the old man's simple but symbolic pharmacist clothes, but they were wearing the same moon white robes.
The man is about twenty years old, handsome appearance, with a tall figure, very attractive, of course, the most important thing is that there is such a powerful coercion faintly revealed on his body, and he is already a strong man in the sky.
With his handsome appearance and good strength, this young man not only fascinated some ignorant girls in the family, but even Zhou Ziqi, who was sitting on the side, was also slightly brilliant when her beautiful eyes moved to this side.
Although the girl secretly sent Qiubo, but this didn't seem to be attractive to the young man, at this time, the young man was concentrating all his attention on the beautiful girl beside him...
This girl is the same age as Zhou Ziqi, which makes Zhou Yan a little surprised, her appearance is even more beautiful than Zhou Ziqi, in this family, I am afraid that only Zhou Man who is like a snow lotus and Zhou Qingyi who is like a clear lotus can be comparable to it, no wonder this man is disdainful of these rouge vulgar fans in the clan.
The girl's delicate earlobes were hung with a green jade pendant, and when she shook slightly, there was a crisp jade sound, and a touch of delicacy suddenly appeared...... Moreover, the aura faintly emanating from his body has already reached the height of the star position!
"Star, this girl... If you don't have your own potential stimulated by external objects, you are another genius. β
The heart took a breath of cool air gently, but Zhou Yan's gaze only stayed on the girl's cold little face for an instant and then moved away, no matter what, although he was immature on the outside, but he was mature on the inside, although the girl was very beautiful, but he didn't have the leisure to show the drooling pig brother to dislike people.
Zhou Yan's behavior seemed to surprise the girl a little, although she was not the kind of girl who thought that the world revolved around her, but she knew very well what her beauty and temperament were, Zhou Yan's casual actions really surprised her, of course, that's all.
"Father, four elders!"
Zhou Yan stepped forward quickly and saluted respectfully to the five Zhou Ze people on the upper position.
"Hehe, Yan'er, here, sit down. β
Looking at Zhou Yan's arrival, Zhou Ze stopped talking and laughing with the guest, nodded at him, and waved.
Smiling and nodding, Zhou Yan swept his gaze around, and finally stopped beside a delicate figure, Zhou Yan slowly walked towards the seat specially reserved for him next to the girl, and said in a low voice as he walked, with a wicked smile on his face.
"It's still my Qing'er who is good to me. β
When Zhou Qing'er heard this, her fresh and moving cheeks couldn't help but flush slightly, but she didn't turn her head, but smiled at Zhou Yan slightly, with a sly light in her eyes.
Seeing Zhou Qing'er's delicate and moving appearance, Zhou Yan's heart was hot, but thinking that this was a conference room, he suppressed the restlessness in his heart and observed the surrounding situation.
When Zhou Qing'er saw Zhou Yan's movements, she didn't bother him, but just smiled lightly and followed him to look at the situation in the conference room.
In the conference room, the four elders in power were the same as usual.
The eldest elder had no expression on his face, a pair of white eyebrows were slightly raised as usual, the eyes of the two elders were deep, and there were no special emotional fluctuations in their cold eyes, and the three elders always had a smile on their faces, which was the same as usual, and the four elders simply closed their eyes tightly and became a transparent person.
And Zhou Ze was quite eagerly talking to the strange old man, but the old man seemed to have something unspeakable, and every time he said something, he would swallow it back a little helplessly, and every time at this time, the delicate girl on the side couldn't help but glance at the old man...
After listening to it for a while, Zhou Yan shook his head a little boredly...
Just when Zhou Yan was so bored that he wanted to doze off, Xun'er beside him smiled.
"Brother Zhouyan, do you know their identities?"
"You know?" Zhou Yan asked in surprise, turning his head curiously.
"Do you see that black ring on the chest of their robes?" said Qing'er with a slight smile.
"Oh?" Zhou Yan's eyes turned to the chests of the three of them, and there was indeed a black ring on the moon-white robe.
"They're from the Zero Academy?"
Zhou Yan whispered in surprise.
Although he didn't go out to practice, Zhou Yan had read about this academy in some books, and Guyuan Town, where Zhou's family was located, was just an ordinary remote town in this Nanling.
Zhou Yan's family has a lot of weight in this Guyuan Town, but it is not the only one, in the town, there are three other major families whose strength can be comparable to the Zhou family, and the Quartet has been fighting with each other for decades, and now although the Zhou family has faintly become the overlord of this Guyuan Town, if the other three families are united, the Zhou family is still extremely fearful.
If the Zhou family is the tyrant of Guyuan Town, then the Tailing Courtyard that Zhou Yan said in his mouth may be said to be the tyrant of the entire Nanling Mountains, and even the entire Tailing District, the gap between them is like a chasm, and it is no wonder that the father, who is usually very serious, is also a little in awe at this moment.
"What are they doing in our family?" Zhou Yan asked in a low voice with some confusion.
When Qing'er heard this, she was silent for a while, and then said, "Maybe it has something to do with Brother Zhouyan..."
"IβI haven't had any intersection with them?" Hearing this, Zhou Yan was stunned and shook his head in denial.
"Do you know what the girl's name is?" Qing'er glanced at the delicate girl opposite.
"What?" frowned, and Zhou Yan asked.
"Mo Xianlan!"
Qing'er's little face was a little strange, and she glanced at Zhou Yan, who was a little stiff.
"Mo Xianlan, that Mo Xianlan of the Mo family in Yongcheng, Mo Xianlan, Mo Shinan's granddaughter? The fiancΓ©e who is married to me?" Zhou Yan said with a stiff face.
"Huh. β
Qing'er was smiling and meaningful.
