Battle Through the Heavens: Bind Xun'er, reward Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame

Chapter 19

Xiao Xuan and Xiao Xun'er strolled around the market for several hours.

As dusk fell, the two left the market.

They walked towards the Xiao family's residence.

Walking down the street, Xiao Xun'er linked arms with Xiao Xuan.

She wore a light blue bracelet on her wrist.

He had a smile on his face.

"Brother Xiao Xuan, thank you for spending time with me today."

Xiao Xuan remained silent.

The two entered the Xiao family's gate.

As soon as I entered, I heard a murmur of conversation coming from inside.

Several disciples of the Xiao family were gathered together, talking about something.

"Have you heard? The Nalan family has arrived."

"The Nalan family? Which Nalan family?"

"Who else could it be? The Nalan family of the capital."

"What are the Nalan family doing here at the Xiao family's place?"

"I heard they came to apologize."

"Apologize? Apologize for what?"

"About Nalan Yanran's annulment of the engagement."

"The Nalan family personally came to apologize? Is it true?"

"Of course it's true. Nalan Jie and Nalan Su are both here and are talking to the clan leader in the main hall right now."

Xiao Xuan stopped in his tracks.

Nalan Jie.

Nalan Su.

The father and son came to the Xiao family in person.

He recalled what had happened a few days earlier outside the Imperial City Auction House.

Nalan Su tried to steal his Xuanxin Pill, but he killed four of his followers with a single palm strike.

Nalan Su was so frightened that he knelt down and begged for mercy.

Now they've actually come to the Xiao family.

Xiao Xun'er also heard the discussions.

She turned to look at Xiao Xuan.

"Brother Xiao Xuan, the Nalan family has come to the Xiao family."

"Hmm," Xiao Xuan said.

"What are they doing here?"

"have no idea."

Xiao Xun'er looked at him, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes.

The Nalan family was a prominent family in the capital.

Nalan Yanran is also a disciple of the Yunlan Sect.

When Nalan Yanran came to the Xiao family to annul the engagement last time, she caused the Xiao family to lose face.

Now that the Nalan family has come again, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.

Xiao Xuan snapped out of his thoughts.

"Let's go take a look."

Xiao Xun'er nodded.

The two walked towards the hall.

……

The main hall of the Xiao family.

Xiao Zhan sat in the main seat, his expression somewhat complicated.

He was seated on either side of Nalan Jie and Nalan Su.

Nalan Jie had gray hair and a composed demeanor.

Nalan Su sat beside him, head bowed, not daring to speak.

"What brings you here in person, Elder Nalan?" Xiao Zhan asked.

His tone was neither humble nor arrogant.

Although the Nalan family was a prominent family in the capital, Xiao Zhan still remembered the previous annulment of the engagement.

Nalan Jie put down his teacup.

"Clan Chief Xiao, I have come here today for two matters."

Xiao Zhan looked at him.

"The first thing is to apologize to the Xiao family on behalf of Yanran for breaking off the engagement."

Xiao Zhan was stunned for a moment.

Did the Nalan family personally come to apologize?

He had assumed that Nalan Jie had come again for some troublesome matter.

I never expected they would come to apologize.

"Old Master Nalan, you flatter me," Xiao Zhan said.

"The matter of annulment is over. Although the Xiao family lost face, they won't hold a grudge."

Nalan Jie nodded.

"The Xiao clan leader is magnanimous."

He paused.

"The second thing is that I want to see someone."

Xiao Zhan looked at him.

"Who?"

"Xiao Xuan," Nalan Jie said.

Xiao Zhan frowned slightly.

Xiao Xuan?

The Nalan family wants to see Xiao Xuan?

"What brings Old Master Nalan to see Xiao Xuan?" Xiao Zhan asked.

Nalan Jie remained silent for a moment.

"There are some personal matters I'd like to discuss with him in person."

Xiao Zhan looked at him, and countless thoughts surged in his mind.

……

When Xiao Xuan walked through the gate of the Xiao family, Xiao Xun'er was still holding his arm.

The two walked across the front yard toward the main hall.

Xiao Xuan heard everything the disciples were saying.

Nalan Jie and Nalan Su have arrived.

He was talking to Xiao Zhan in the lobby.

Xiao Xun'er looked up at him.

"Brother Xiao Xuan, the Nalan family is looking for you. Could it be because of what happened at the auction last time?"

"Perhaps," Xiao Xuan said.

A hint of worry flashed in Xiao Xun'er's eyes.

When Xiao Xuan went to the capital to buy her the Xuanxin Pill last time, he mentioned it on his way back.

It is said that he met Nalan Su outside the auction house.

As for what exactly happened, Xiao Xuan did not elaborate.

She didn't ask any further questions.

Xiao Xuan snapped out of his thoughts, but didn't stop walking.

As the two reached the entrance of the hall, they heard conversations coming from inside.

"What brings Old Master Nalan to see Xiao Xuan?" Xiao Zhan's voice rang out.

"There are some private matters I'd like to discuss with him in person," an elderly voice said.

Xiao Xuan stepped inside.

In the hall, Xiao Zhan sat in the main seat.

Two unfamiliar men were sitting on either side of me.

One had gray hair and a composed demeanor.

He was a middle-aged man, with his head down and a rather unpleasant expression.

Nalan Jie and Nalan Su.

When Xiao Zhan saw Xiao Xuan enter, he immediately stood up.

"Xuan'er, you've come at the perfect time."

Xiao Xuan walked to the center of the hall.

Xiao Xun'er stood beside him.

Nalan Jie's gaze fell on Xiao Xuan.

His pupils contracted slightly.

This is the boy.

A Dou Huang powerhouse in his teens.

He killed four fighting spirits with a single palm strike.

He had never personally experienced the oppressive aura of a Dou Huang powerhouse.

Nalan Su's voice trembled as he described it.

Nalan Jie stood up.

"Is this young friend Xiao Xuan?"

Xiao Xuan looked at him but didn't say anything.

Nalan Jie turned his head and looked at Nalan Su.

His face darkened.

"You bastard, get over here now!"

Nalan Su shuddered and quickly stood up.

He walked up to Xiao Xuan.

Xiao Zhan was stunned.

The elders in the hall were also stunned.

What's going on?

Nalan Jie told Nalan Su to get over there?

Nalan Su walked up to Xiao Xuan.

Take a deep breath.

Then bend down.

"Lord Xiao, I was blind last time outside the Imperial City Auction House."

"I apologize for offending Lord Xiao."

His voice trembled slightly.

The hall was deathly silent.

The elders stared wide-eyed, their mouths agape.

Nalan Su.

The patriarch of the Nalan family.

Nalan Yanran's father.

One of the most prominent figures in the capital of the Gama Empire.

He's actually bowing and apologizing to Xiao Xuan?

The elder's hand trembled slightly.

The Second Elder almost dropped his teacup.

The Third Elder froze completely.

They looked at Xiao Xuan, their eyes filled with shock.

What exactly is going on?

Xiao Xuan looked at Nalan Su.

"Alright."

Nalan straightened up and breathed a sigh of relief.

Cold sweat had already seeped out of his forehead.

Nalan Jie stepped forward.

"Young Master Xiao, what happened last time was Nalan Su's fault."

"I have already taught him a lesson."

"Young Master Xiao is very magnanimous and doesn't hold it against him. I am extremely grateful."

Xiao Xuan looked at him.

"You're too kind, Elder Nalan."

Nalan Jie nodded.

He glanced at Xiao Zhan.

"Clan Chief Xiao, you have raised a fine son."

Xiao Zhan came to his senses.

"You flatter me, Elder Nalan."

His voice was somewhat hoarse.

Countless thoughts surged through my mind.

Nalan Jie was one of the most prominent figures in the Jia Ma Empire.

A Dou Wang level expert.

The Nalan family's influence in the capital was many times greater than that of the Xiao family.

But now, Nalan Jie has come to visit in person.

He also made Nalan Su bow and apologize to Xiao Xuan.

What does this mean?

……

After the conversation in the hall ended.

Nalan Jie and Nalan Su were arranged to rest in guest rooms.

Xiao Xuan and Xiao Xun'er left the hall.

The news spread very quickly.

In less than half an hour, the entire Xiao family knew about it.

Nalan Su, the patriarch of the Nalan family, personally bowed and apologized to Xiao Xuan.

Nalan Jie, the patriarch of the Nalan family, personally paid a visit to Xiao Xuan.

The disciples of the Xiao family were buzzing with discussion.
