Chapter 273: Divorce
On the morning of the second day, Xiao's house, in the solemn welcome hall.
The hall is spacious and there are quite a few people in it. Five seats were placed side by side at the top, and on the middle seat, Xiao Zhan, the patriarch of the Xiao family, was sitting. Beside him, there were three old men, who were the three elders of the Xiao family who also had the strength of a great fighter. On the side of the seat, there was a sleepy-eyed sloppy man, who was Tianyi.
On the left hand below, there are some elders in the family who have the right to speak and are not weak, and beside them, there are also some young people who have performed well in the family. On the other side, there was an old man in a moon-white robe and two young men and women who were also wearing moon-white robes.
When Xiao Yan entered the hall, Tianyi, who was originally drowsy with his head down, raised his head and looked at Xiao Yan.
As expected, the three distinguished guests who came today, among which the girl who was the same age as Xiao Yan was Xiao Yan's fiancée Nalan Yanran, and she came to the Xiao family this time to withdraw from the marriage.
"Hehe, Patriarch Xiao, what I asked for today is related to Yan Ran, and this matter is still the sect master's personal opinion." After some politeness, Ge Ye, the old man who accompanied Nalan Yanran, couldn't help but chuckle and said, ready to explain his intention.
When Xiao Zhan heard this, he naturally thought of a possibility, and couldn't help but say in a slightly trembling voice with the corners of his mouth twitching: "Mr. Ge Ye, please speak!"
"Ahem.." Ge Ye's face suddenly appeared a touch of embarrassment, but thinking of the sect master's love for Nalan Yanran, he had to grit his teeth and said with a smile: "Patriarch Xiao, you also know that the Yunlan Sect is strict, and the sect master's expectations for Yanran are also very high, and now she is basically cultivated as the next sect master of the Yunlan Sect. And because of some special rules, the heirs of the suzerain are not allowed to have entanglements with men before they become official suzerains."
"After asking Yan Ran, the sect master knew that she had a family affair with the Xiao family, so... Therefore, the sect master wants to invite Patriarch Xiao, and he can. The engagement was dissolved," Ge Ye continued, after a pause.
Click: The jade cup in Xiao Zhan's hand suddenly turned into a canopy of powder.
In the hall, the atmosphere was a little quiet, and even the three elders of the Xiao family were shocked by Ge Ye's words, and then there was more ridicule and ridicule in their eyes when they looked at Xiao Zhan. Some of the younger juniors below and their parents inquired about Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran's marriage contract, and they couldn't help but have wonderful expressions, and their mocking eyes fell on Xiao Yan who was sitting with Xiao Xun'er in the corner.
Noticing Xiao Zhan's extremely gloomy face, Nalan Yanran didn't dare to raise her head, lowering her head and twisting her fingers nervously.
"Patriarch Xiao, I know that this request is a bit difficult for a strong man, but please also dissolve the marriage contract in the face of the sect master!" sighed helplessly, Ge Ye said lightly.
Xiao Zhan's fists were clenched, and a faint cyan fighting aura gradually covered his body, and finally vaguely converged into an illusory lion head on his face.
Seeing Xiao Zhan's reaction, Ge Ye's face was slightly solemn, his eagle-like hands were suddenly bent together, and the cyan fighting qi gathered in the eagle's claws, exuding a small and sharp sword aura.
With the aura of the two of them exploding so unscrupulously, some of the weak teenagers in the hall couldn't help but have their faces slightly changed and their chests tightened.
Just as Xiao Zhan's breathing became more and more rapid, the shouts of the three elders sounded like thunder in the hall: "Xiao Zhan, stop it! Don't forget that you are the patriarch of the Xiao family!"
The fighting spirit on Xiao Zhan's body, whose body trembled suddenly, slowly converged, and he looked at Nalan Yanran, who bowed his head indifferently, and said in a hoarse voice: "Nalan niece, what courage, Nalan Su has your daughter, it's really enviable!"
"Uncle Xiao.." Nalan Yanran, whose delicate body trembled slightly, opened her mouth a little.
Xiao Zhan, who waved his hand lightly, said in an indifferent tone: "Hehe, just call me Patriarch Xiao." I can't afford the title of uncle. You are the sect master of the Yunlan Sect in the future, and you will also be the person of the Douqi Continent in the future, my Yan'er is just a person with mediocre qualifications, and he is indeed not worthy of you. ”
"Thank you Patriarch Xiao for your understanding," Ge Ye on the side was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly smiled at Xiao Zhan and said: "Patriarch Xiao, the sect master knows that today's request is very impolite, so he specially asked him to bring something under him, and it will be regarded as an apology!"
"Do you gather qi to disperse?" Looking at the pills that exuded a strange fragrance, were green and the size of a dragon's eye in the green ancient jade box that Ge Ye took out, Tianyi couldn't help but muttered to himself with his eyes narrowed.
Seeing that the three elders in the hall and the rest of the Xiao family were all looking at the pill with blazing eyes, Tianyi, who shook his head lightly, couldn't help but have a faint sneer on the corner of his mouth. Just one pill made them so out of shape, what a bun of dirt buns. If the ancestors of the Xiao family, one of the eight great Doudi families, knew, I wonder if they would be so angry that they would jump out of the coffin?
Just when Ge Ye was a little proud and said that this gathering qi dispersion was refined by Gu He, the honorary elder of their Yunlan Sect, and the three elders were also a little happy to look at the gathering qi dispersion, Xiao Yan, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "Old Mr. Ge Ye, you better take back the pill!
There was a sudden silence in the hall, and for a moment all eyes shifted to Xiao Yan who had a delicate face in the corner.
"Xiao Yan, how can you speak here, shut up for me!" one of the elders shouted angrily with a sinking face.
Another old man who was older also said lightly: "Xiao Yan, I know you feel uncomfortable, but we will call the shots here!"
"Three elders, if the object of their repentance today is your son or grandson, will you still say that?" Xiao Yan stood up and laughed mockingly. The three elders' disdain for him was obvious, so he didn't have to pretend to be in front of them.
"You.." The three elders were stunned when they heard this, and the three elders with the most short temper were even more glared, and the vindictive spirit on their bodies appeared.
Tianyi on the side pouted lightly and slowly spoke: "Three elders, you are very angry, you are so old, be careful of your body!"
"Tianyi, you.." The three elders glared at Tianyi angrily, and at the same time, Xiao Xun'er's voice also sounded: "Three elders, what Brother Xiao Yan said is not wrong. He's the one involved, so don't you follow in, right?"
Listening to the girl's soft voice, the arrogance of the three elders suddenly subsided, and they glanced at each other helplessly, and then nodded. This made Xiao Yan slightly surprised, and then stared deeply at Xiao Xun'er who was smiling.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yan suppressed the doubts in his heart, strode forward and first saluted Xiao Zhan respectfully, then turned to face Nalan Yanran, took a deep breath, and asked calmly: "Miss Nalan, I want to ask, about today's repentance, old man Nalan, have you ever agreed?"
"Grandpa didn't agree, but it's my business, and it has nothing to do with him," Standing up and staring at the young man in front of him who was supposed to be his husband, Nalan Yanran said in a flat and delicate tone.
Xiao Yan nodded lightly: "Since the old man has never spoken, then I hope to bear with me, my father will not agree to your request." The original marriage was made by the two old men themselves, and now they have not opened their mouths to dissolve it, so no one dares to solve this marriage. Otherwise, it would be a blasphemy against a dead elder! I don't think anyone in our clan would do such a disobedient thing, right?"
After speaking, Xiao Yan, who also glanced at the three elders, suddenly made the three elders secretly annoyed but did not dare to say anything.
