"Uncle Zhen can't speak so fast. Uncle Xiao Zhen, I'm here to see the eldest brother and the second brother. When will today's morning class end?" Xiao Yan looked at Xiao Zhen with a smile.
"Today's morning class is almost over. Alright, kids, let's rest." Xiao Zhen turned and said to the teenagers on the field.
"Third brother", "Third brother, you are here!"
As soon as Xiao Zhen finished speaking, the youngsters scattered in all directions, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li also ran over, holding Xiao Yan's hand and shouting joyfully.
"Hey, these little brats." Seeing this scene, Xiao Zhen's cold and stern face showed a bit of a smile, and then he walked away with his hands behind his back, humming a little song.
"Hey, the two little brats are both at the fifth stage of Dou Li, not bad." Xiao Yan looked at the two little radish piles in front of him and thought to himself.
"Big Brother, Second Brother, don't shake it, you two will make my head dizzy. Let's go, let's go to see my mother together." Xiao Yan held a person with each hand, and the three of them fought all the way. Go to the main house of the Xiao family.
After seeing his mother in the backyard, Xiao Yan left Xiao Ding and Xiao Li to accompany his mother and walked to the front yard.
"Hey, I heard that father and the elders of the family are discussing matters in the front yard. I'll go and have a look."
"Third Young Master." Xiao Yan had just entered the front yard when the Great Elder who was sitting next to Xiao Zhan's lower left hand stood up, smiling like a blooming chrysanthemum.The second and third elders also hurriedly got up and saluted.
"Hey, the Great Elder is finally no longer as poor and hopeless as before. The reason why these elders competed with their father for power and profit in the past was nothing more than their vision, their strength, and their limited resources. Now, the teacher has broadened his horizons. Their vision has definitely raised their father's strength, and given them a huge amount of resources, there is no reason why they can't help them."
"Besides, my Xiao family is also the continuation of the Xiao family, one of the eight great imperial families in ancient times. The blood of Emperor Dou flows. The goal of my Xiao family is to return to the ranks of the eight ancient families. Hey, the Xiao family is finally a bit of a big family now. Yes, Teacher and I didn't waste our efforts." Xiao Yan looked at the First Elder slightly in a daze.
"Oh, Yan'er is here. Father is discussing matters with the elders. Come on, come to father. First elder, you continue to talk." Xiao Zhan waved to Xiao Yan with a smile on his face, then turned his head and said to the first elder .
Xiao Yan smiled, walked to Xiao Zhan's side, and quietly listened to the meeting of the people in the hall.
"Patriarch." The Great Elder cupped his hands at Xiao Zhan.
"Currently, our Xiao's auction house has defeated the Termir Auction House, and now our Xiao Family accounts for [-]% of the customers in Wutan City, and the Termir Auction House is already a lost dog."
"It's all thanks to the help of the third young master's teacher, the mysterious alchemist, and with the help of a large number of cheap high-quality pills, we were able to crush the Temir Auction House in one fell swoop." The elder said and nodded to Xiao Yan.
"Including our Xiao family's pharmacist who broke through to the second rank recently, and two first-rank pharmacists recently recruited, we now have a second-rank pharmacist and seven first-rank pharmacists in Xiao Yan."
"Well, the alchemy hall is the most important thing, and the first elder needs to be more concerned. Second elder, you are in charge of the martial arts hall. How is the situation in the martial arts hall?" Xiao Zhan nodded with joy, and looked at the second elder.
"Recently, my Xiao family has added three fighters and seven fighters," said the second elder.
"The situation in the market I'm in charge of is also good. It's just that the Jialie family and the Auba family seem to have come together recently, and they seem to be plotting something, and they are fighting with my Xiao family's market." The third elder said a little unhappy .
"Hmph, the Jialie and Auba families, my Xiao family will destroy them sooner or later! This Wutan city is too small, it can only accommodate the voice of my Xiao family." After hearing this, Xiao Zhan responded domineeringly.
"Okay, things are almost discussed, then let's discuss the most important thing." Xiao Zhan immediately said with a serious expression.
"You still remember the terrifying family that made an alliance with our Xiao family, no, in ancient times, right?" Xiao Zhan seemed to keep this matter secret.
"Oh, Xiao Xun'er is coming. Hey, it seems that the future life will not be too boring." Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows.
"Could it be that ancient clan in the legend?" the Great Elder asked with his pupils shrunk, obviously remembering something.
"Yes." Xiao Zhan said.
"The last time the Gu Clan came into contact with our Xiao family was when your father, Patriarch Xiao Lin, was still alive. They were very mysterious. Although they seemed to be very polite to us, I could feel that they didn't seem to let us go. In the heart. They seem to have a certain purpose in contacting us, so what are they here for this time?" The elder's face darkened.
"It is said that in order to abide by the ancient covenant and to strengthen the relationship between our two clans, we want to foster the daughter of a prominent person in our clan in our Xiao family. Oh, she is one year younger than our Yan'er." Xiao Zhan said. He patted Xiao Yan's head.
"Our clan has long since passed away. As for why the ancient clan is still in contact with us? Even if you don't tell me, I can guess a little bit. My father also explained to me when he was dying." Xiao Zhan said with a cold smile.
"Could it be that ancient..." the Great Elder said. .
"The Great Elder said cautiously, the people who came to report earlier from the ancient tribe still kept Wutan City to prepare for the arrival of the ancient tribe. Besides, those few cultivation bases seemed to be unfathomable, even the Master Shan of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion couldn't see through it. It’s better to be careful.” Xiao Zhan interrupted him before the Great Elder’s words were uttered.
"What does the patriarch mean?"
"Wait and see. The ancient tribe will come to send the girl over in a month. Are we still afraid that a two-year-old child will fail? Well, all the elders, please step back. Prepare well and let the brats below You guys have to be more honest recently, don't make jokes in front of the ancient people." Xiao Zhan waved his hand in disinterest to end the meeting.
"Yes." The elders withdrew knowingly.
"Yan'er, do you want father to find you a little wife?" Xiao Zhan looked at Xiao Yan jokingly.
"Yes, Yan'er is short of a child bride." Xiao Yan rolled his eyes and said.
"Haha, you brat. Go, go to the backyard with your father to see your mother." Xiao Zhan picked up Xiao Yan and strode towards the backyard.
"Father, let me down quickly, I can walk by myself, I can walk by myself..."
("Put me down quickly, let me down, I'm the protagonist, bastard, I don't want to lose face..." The three-year-old Xiao Yan was speechless.)
Chapter 3 Ancients
On the bed, Xiao Yan closed his eyes and sat cross-legged, with his hands making strange handprints in front of him.The chest rises and falls slightly, forming a perfect cycle between breaths and breaths.And during the breath circulation, there is a faint white air flow along the nose and mouth, penetrating into the body, warming the bones and flesh.
"Phew, finally suddenly reached the fifth stage of fighting strength." Xiao Yan opened his eyes suddenly, and slowly let out a breath of foul air, pleasantly surprised Yao Lao who was floating beside him.
"Hey, if you don't make a breakthrough, you kid will miss today's show." Yao Lao laughed.
"Oh, teacher, so it's been a month already." Xiao Yan said in surprise.
"Stop talking nonsense, put on this robe, and I will attach to you later. Your father and the others set off later, we will follow secretly." Yao Lao casually threw a black robe into Xiao Yan's arms and said .
After a while, the window of Xiao Yan's room was pushed open, and a short-looking strange man in a black robe shot away from the window.
"Over there." Yao Lao possessed Xiao Yan's body, and as soon as he let go of his soul consciousness, he instantly sensed Xiao Zhan's traces, and Yao Lao followed them silently with a touch of his toes.
I saw Xiao Zhan, the three elders, and the three masters of the clan, a group of seven people walking towards the back mountain of Xiao's house with stern faces and vigorous steps.
"So it's at the back of Xiao's house. That's right. Generally, no one will go there, and they won't be discovered. Teacher, hurry up and follow." Xiao Yan hurriedly urged Yao Laodao.
