Chapter 99: The Originator of the Marriage-Breaking Trope, Xiao Yan Reports for Duty
Covering the Sky Plane, Big Dipper Star Domain, inside a certain room.
"They say that after three days of separation, one should look at a person with new eyes!"
"This time, I must definitely shock everyone."
Inside a certain room, a child who looked to be about twelve or thirteen years old and delicate in appearance revealed a look of smugness.
It was none other than Ye Fan, who had already undergone rejuvenation. After Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin and arriving at the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, under the invisible arrangement of the Ruthless Empress, he had consumed the Holy Fruit, cleansed his tendons and marrow, and now his physique far exceeded that of his peers.
Furthermore, he had opened the Wheel and Sea Secret Realm and become a small cultivator.
Unlike the original work, Ye Fan did not go to the Lingxu Grotto-Heaven, because there was a wicked Elder there who wanted to seize the origin of the Holy Body.
However, in a while, the Demon Emperor's Tomb under the Lingxu Grotto-Heaven would open, and he would still need to hide among the cultivators to reap benefits.
Moreover, having the Vertical Golden Light Technique gifted by Xuanzang, he firmly believed that even if he could not win, he could still escape.
The Vertical Golden Light Technique is one of the Tiangang Thirty-Six Transformations; it is not just a simple movement or escape technique, but contains within it the Tao and the Law. Simply put, it is itself an ancient Law, cultivating both internally and externally.
Thinking of this, Ye Fan was full of confidence.
Subsequently, behind him, the Chat Group opened a Space Channel to the Dou Qi Plane.
……
Dou Qi Continent, Wutan City, Xiao Family.
Upon learning that the group members were coming, Yun Yun had to temporarily change her plans.
"Yun Zong Zhu, you seem to be waiting for someone."
In the Xiao Family's main hall, Xiao Zhan could not help but ask.
At this moment, in the main hall, besides Xiao Zhan, Yun Yun, and Nalan Yanran, there was no one else.
As for those Elders, they had long been driven away by Yun Yun.
"Yes, I still have a few friends who haven't arrived," Yun Yun said.
"Friends? Which friends?" Nalan Yanran asked curiously.
"It's nothing, it's nothing," Xiao Zhan smiled warmly, not daring to ask more.
As the words fell, four space gates appeared out of thin air in the main hall, and one figure after another flickered into view.
"This is!"
Although Xiao Zhan was a Great Dou Shi, he could not help but be shocked upon feeling such intense spatial fluctuations.
Ye Fan, the wild child Shi Hao, the plain-looking Han Paopao, and Xuanzang appeared almost simultaneously.
"What level of powerhouse is this, to be able to travel through space and appear without a sound," Xiao Zhan thought to himself.
Immediately, he adopted the attitude of a clan head and hurriedly said, "Xiao Zhan greets all you lords!"
"Lords, uncle! Do I look very old?" the wild child asked.
Only then did Xiao Zhan notice Shi Hao, who was about five or six years old, yet had a full forehead and prominent features. The aura on his body was terrifying, making this Great Dou Shi feel ashamed, as if he were facing a small fierce beast.
"Xuan Ge!"
Ye Fan greeted Xuanzang, his enthusiasm like fire.
"You are? Ye Fan? How did you become so small?" Yun Yun revealed a look of surprise.
Ye Fan chuckled and said, "I obtained a bit of fortune and underwent rejuvenation."
"Han greets Immortal Master Xuanzang, Yun Zong Zhu, Fellow Daoist Ye, and Little Brother Shi," Han Li greeted politely.
Xuanzang also nodded; courtesy demands reciprocity.
Yun Yun said, "Clan Head Xiao, do not be surprised. These are all my friends. You can understand them as people from outside; they are merely witnesses and have nothing to do with the matter we are discussing today."
"Understood." Xiao Zhan nodded; even if he wanted to object, he lacked the strength.
Furthermore, since Yun Zong Zhu's attitude was so sincere, he could not refuse to give her face.
Nalan Yanran's expression was one of shock, and she had not yet recovered.
She had never seen any of these four friends of her master.
Ye Fan was a person who could not endure loneliness; seeing the young girl Nalan Yanran, he teased:
"Tsk tsk, so this is the originator of the marriage-breaking trope! Yun Zong Zhu, your disciple is truly brave!"
"……" Yun Yun.
"Little brat, what are you saying, acting all old and pretentious," Nalan Yanran retorted, her willow eyebrows raised in a spoiled manner.
In Nalan's eyes, the rejuvenated Ye Fan was indeed a little brat.
"Ye Fan, do not tease others. Give Yun Yun some face," Xuanzang said.
"Hehe, listening to Xuan Ge," Ye Fan laughed.
Nalan Yanran's gaze turned toward the handsome Xuanzang, and a blush could not help but appear on the young girl's cheeks.
How could there be such a good-looking man in the world?
Is he a friend of Teacher's!
"Sister Yun, your disciple is also a 'female fatty'," Xiao Shi said innocently.
"…… Xiao Shi, is it that in your eyes all girls are 'female fatties'?" Yun Yun said.
"Yes, Sister Yun, you are one too," Xiao Shi nodded earnestly.
Xiao Zhan watched from the side; although there were some technical terms he did not understand, he still felt it was profound and impressive.
Not long after, a black-robed youth of about fourteen or fifteen years old walked into the hall.
The youth was not old, with delicate features, and his eyes revealed a touch of unyielding stubbornness.
It was the Third Young Master of the Xiao Family, Xiao Yan!
Xiao Yan walked in, finding it strange that there were so many strangers in the house, but without those old fellows from the family, it was quiet and comfortable.
"Yan'er, come over, quickly greet these few lords," Xiao Zhan said.
Xiao Yan did not understand why, but he still cooperated very well by bowing to everyone and saying:
"Xiao Yan, greetings to you all!"
"Wahaha, you're welcome!" Xiao Shi pretended to be an adult, hands behind his back, head held high and chest puffed out.
"Brother Xiao, no need for formalities," Han Li said with a smile.
Xuanzang did the same, returning the salute.
Only Ye Fan looked at Xiao Yan strangely and suddenly said:
"Odd changes, even stays the same!"
"Signs depend on the quadrant!" Xiao Yan blurted out, an instinct that bypassed his brain entirely.
Immediately, he looked at Ye Fan with astonishment, his expression one of shock and disbelief.
Xiao Yan then said: "The great river flows to the east?"
"The stars in the sky reflect Beidou!" Ye Fan answered the same, even more excited.
"Two little tigers, two little tigers!"
"Running fast, running fast!"
He had not expected that although they belonged to different Earth Stars, their cultures would be so similar.
"Fellow countryman!" Xiao Yan said, trembling.
"Exactly!" Ye Fan was also incredibly happy.
Everyone was left bewildered by the flashy maneuvers of Ye Fan and Xiao Yan.
Could this be the legendary "meeting like old friends at first sight"?
Ye Fan and Xiao Yan hugged each other in front of everyone.
"?" Xiao Zhan thought, Yan'er is usually not like this.
Xiao Yan was very happy; heaven knows how he had lived since he transmigrated here.
Being a stranger in a strange land, especially after becoming a piece of trash for these three years, suffering the Byakugan of others, every day had felt like a year.
Now that he had met a "homie" from his hometown, the grievances and helplessness in his heart could finally be poured out.
"Sigh, brother, I've finally found my team," Xiao Yan sighed.
"It doesn't matter; as long as we come from the same planet, the same country, and share the same bloodline! We should all look out for and help each other," Ye Fan said.
"Right, Brother Ye, can we go back?" Xiao Yan asked hurriedly.
Ye Fan's expression changed slightly, and he said: "Ahem, I don't think we can go back."
Hearing this, Xiao Yan's face showed disappointment; that was true, how could it be so easy to go back.
But looking at Ye Fan, he couldn't help but say:
"Brother Ye, how did you get here? Are you all from the Dou Qi Continent too?"
"No, we came from another world," Ye Fan said.
"Xiao Yanzi, I am about to tell you some unfortunate news!" Ye Fan said with a grave expression.
"What?" Xiao Yan looked confused.
"Xiao Yanzi, you are about to have your engagement annulled! Stay strong!" Ye Fan said.
"??" Xiao Yan.
Yun Yun was truly impressed by this Diliu, Ye Fan; is this how one steals the spotlight?
He had said all the lines; what was she supposed to say now?
Xiao Zhan sighed suddenly and said: "Yan'er, this is the Yunlan Sect Yun Zong Zhu Yun, and this is Nalan Yanran, your fiancée."
"..." Xiao Yan.
