People are fighting, but all members are NPCs

Chapter 162 Nalan Yanran's Request

“I feel a bit disappointed.”

After listening to Nalan Yanran's description, Xiao Yuan immediately had this feeling.

Although I can’t tell exactly where I lost money, I always feel that it is like I missed out on 100 million!

I remember the last time I had this feeling was when I missed out on a red envelope worth thousands of yuan in the group because of playing games.

but
Xiao Yuan looked down at the rosy-faced girl in his arms. She no longer had the reserve and shyness she had before, and even had that resentment and arrogance.

It feels like Nalan Yanran is letting herself go.

This is normal. With multiple amplification and pain conversion, there is no need to worry about side effects, let alone the body being damaged. It can be restored to its original state with a refresh. Even if someone has a firm heart, they will not be able to persist for long.

You can even release the accumulated pressure here.

".., your eyes are disgusting. Why.. Why are you looking at me like that?"

Even her tone of voice has changed, she sounds like a biker girl.

"Nothing, I just confirmed that you came here specifically to Wormwood this time to release the pressure that has been accumulating under the pressure of the three-year agreement, and by the way, to express your longing for me, your old lover, right?"

"I won't miss you."

Nalan Yanran silently turned her head away, not daring to meet his gaze, and then panted softly, "I just want to ask you for help with something."

"Oh? Is there something wrong with Zhong Wuyan, and nothing wrong with Xia Yingchun? Is there something wrong that you came to me?"

Xiao Yuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this and stopped immediately.

Nalan Yanran moved her body slightly, but when she found it was not so comfortable, she gave up.

"It's not what you think"

Nalan Yanran defended herself in a very low voice, "My grandfather was once poisoned, and now the poison has suddenly erupted in his body. He is bedridden and has not much time left. Even Elder Guhe is helpless. So, Yanran has no choice but to come to you for help."

"Huh"

Xiao Yuan made a meaningful sound.

Xiao Yuan knew that Nalan Yanran's grandfather, Nalan Jie, the Lionheart Marshal of the Jia Ma Empire, had been poisoned.

About a few years ago, Nalan Jie once fought with an extremely poisonous fifth-level monster, the Branding Poison Seal. Although he killed it in the end, he was unfortunately injected with a terrifying toxin - branding poison - into his body by the latter.

The branding poison is also very powerful. Even if the Branding Poison Seal is only level five, it can poison a level six monster to death, which is equivalent to the Douhuang level of humans.

As for Nalan Jie, he only had the cultivation level of a Cricket Fighting King. It could be said that he had to use all his strength to barely suppress the attack and stay alive.

However, because Nalan Yanran secretly went to the Xiao family to cancel the engagement, Nalan Jie suddenly became angry and unstable, which led to the outbreak of the branding poison.

"So, in the final analysis, your grandfather's illness is mainly due to you, Miss Nalan."

"I know, please stop talking."

Nalan Yanran lowered her head slightly, her long, beautiful hair swaying slowly with her body, and her delicate face beneath the veil was full of guilt, her silver teeth lightly biting her red lips.

I know I'm wrong and I admit it, but I don't regret it at all.

"Forget it, forget it, just don't tell me."

Seeing her look like a wronged young wife, Xiao Yuan didn't intend to continue talking. Instead, he asked, "However, from your tone, it seems that you have returned to the imperial capital, to the Yunlan Sect?"

"Um"

"Then there's nothing wrong with your sect?"

"No."

Nalan Yanran naturally knew what Xiao Yuan was referring to, but when she and her teacher returned to the sect, she found that everything was the same as before. Nothing had changed at all.

Grandmaster Yunshan was still in seclusion, and the elders hadn't changed much either, except for a slight improvement in their cultivation.

"That's really strange."

Even he couldn't understand what the Soul Palace was doing now.

He was clearly eager to know about him before, and then he violently attacked Hun Tiandi. Logically, Hun Tiandi should hate him to the core and use any means to deal with him.

Why is it suddenly quiet now?
".Xiao Yuan, can you help me save my grandfather?"

Nalan Yanran's eyes were filled with pleading. "Besides you, I really have no other choice. And Grandpa can't hold on any longer."

Nalan Yanran did not lie.

Nalan Jie’s current condition is indeed critical, even more miserable than in the original book.

The current scene mainly happened because Xiao Yuan changed the route of the original novel, resulting in Xiao Yan not having a conflict with the people from the Heavenly Snake Mansion, and not needing the Seven Illusions Green Spirit Saliva to wake up the sleeping Yao Chen. Therefore, the branding poison that could only be removed by the strange fire remained in Nalan Jie's body.

"No problem, I can help you, but..."

Xiao Yuan whispered a few words in Nalan Yanran's ear.

Nalan Yanran's face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, but she did not show anger as expected. Instead, after hesitating for a moment, she nodded and said:
"Okay, it's a deal, you can't go back on your word!"

Although more than a year is a normal period for Xiao Yuan, it is enough to change many things for others.

For example, at this moment——

"Haha, Sister Qinglin, come and catch me~"

The courtyard was filled with the innocent and lively laughter of children.

I saw a girl with a pair of pigtails running through the yard, with an innocent and bright smile on her chubby little face.

"Ah, run slower, be careful not to fall."

Not far from the little girl, Qinglin, dressed in elegant clothes, was chasing after her with a nervous expression, calling out weakly.

But no matter how she called, the little girl ignored her and even turned around and made a face at her.

"I don't want to, Lululu, if you have the guts, Sister Qinglin, please catch me, haha."

The girl's clear laughter also added a bit of vitality to the dead silence of the dream.

However, just as the two were playing, they heard a "squeak" -

The two of them stopped what they were doing and turned around to see the door of the main house being pushed open and Xiao Yuan walking out.

Nalan Yanran, who followed behind him, had a flushed face and was adjusting her moon robe with her slightly trembling hands.

"Oh, it's big brother!"

When the girl saw Xiao Yuan, her eyes lit up immediately, and she ran to Xiao Yuan with her pair of white silk stockings and fleshy legs.

"Big brother, big brother, have you finished talking about things?"

"Hey, Xiaojiu, it seems like you're having a lot of fun playing with Qinglin."

Xiao Yuan habitually reached out and touched the girl's head, and the girl, like a pet, pushed and rubbed against his palm.

He looked comfortable and enjoying himself.
