Battle Through the Heavens: Emperor's Son Xiao Yan

Chapter 93 Don't Underestimate a Young Girl's Poorness (Part 2)

A battle aura avatar towering a thousand feet tall was incredibly massive; the entire imperial capital could see it clearly. ✌👣 69ˢ𝓗Ǘ𝓧.ᶜᗝΜ 💛🍭

As the sound spread, everyone in the capital trembled with fear. Whether they were commoners or fighting kings and emperors, they were all like ants in the face of such a magnificent phenomenon.

"What level of power is this?" In the royal family, Jia Xingtian looked at the thousand-foot giant that suddenly appeared in the Nalan Mansion in the distance with a look of horror.

Meanwhile, in the Nalan residence, Tengshan watched this scene with astonishment. Considering Xiao Yan's arrival, he had a vague guess in his heart.

Deep within the Yunlan Sect lies a secluded cave, which has become a forbidden area for the sect in recent years. It is rumored to be the place where the previous sect leader went into seclusion.

Inside the cave, an old man, almost like a dried corpse, suddenly opened his cloudy old eyes and stared intently at the strange phenomenon outside the cave.

"A Dou Zun expert... no, this aura is even stronger than a Dou Zun expert." The old man's eyes gleamed with fervor.

"If I could get help from a powerhouse of this level, I might be able to reach the Dou Zong level before my time runs out."

"My time is running out," Yunshan murmured, a hint of anxiety in his voice.

Not far from his cave, a beautiful woman who was also in seclusion opened her eyes in shock.

"Just what level is this powerful expert at?"

Just as she was about to go out to check, she felt a surge of spiritual energy.

"Yun'er, come here for a moment."

"Teacher!" Yun Yun's expression froze for a moment, then she flew towards the cave not far away.

Such a magnificent phenomenon not only shocked the entire capital of Gama, but also alarmed several nearby empires.

Given the average strength of the Northwest Continent, a Dou Zun is already the most powerful being, and many people have never even seen a Dou Zun.

All they knew was that the figure was so powerful that he could crush everything.

"Pass down the word: immediately investigate which mysterious powerful figures have recently arrived in the capital. Remember, do not anger them."

Various orders were issued from the major powers, and for a time, the entire city of Gama was in turmoil.

After saying those words, the enormous aura avatar vanished quickly, but everyone's attention was already focused on the Nalan residence.

"Grandpa, I have completed the task that Grandpa entrusted to me. The Nalan family can freely develop its power for the next hundred years. Of course, I do not like anyone using the name of my clan to do anything reckless."

Xiao Yan smiled and looked at Nalan Jie, saying, "If I return to the Xiao Clan in the future, you can come with me to see my grandfather."

"Miss Nalan, if there's nothing else, we'll be leaving now." Xiao Yan smiled slightly at the girl, preparing to leave with Ya Fei and the two elders, Wen and Wu.

"Xiao Yan!" A cold voice rang out from behind.

Xiao Yan turned his head around.

"One day in the future, I will definitely challenge you. Even if you are unapproachable, I will defeat you one day!" The afterglow of the setting sun reddened the girl's pale face.

"Thirty years west of the river, thirty years east of the river; never underestimate a young girl's potential!"

"Goodness, I thought you were a remnant of the Soul Clan." A smile appeared on Xiao Yan's handsome face.

"I'll give you time to catch up, until you can't see you anymore!"

Then, bathed in the glow of the setting sun, he left Nalan Yanran with an unforgettable silhouette.

After Xiao Yan left, Nalan Yanran's legs suddenly went weak, and she collapsed to the ground.

"Yanran." Nalan Jie walked over and looked at his granddaughter with concern.

"Grandpa, I'm fine." Nalan Yanran shook her head sadly.

"Let me be alone."

"Sigh." Nalan Jie sighed.

Although he was in a very bad mood, he could no longer blame Xiao Yan and his grandson.

From Xiao Yan's conversation, he could sense that Xiao Yan was likely involved in a marriage alliance with two forces far more powerful than he could have imagined.

Such marriages often imply a complex relationship between two powerful forces, and given the combined strength of these forces, even a small ripple of their interests could be enough to annihilate the small Nalan family.

Moreover, Xiao Yan has handled this matter very well.

"Take a good rest and don't take it too seriously." Nalan Jie patted his granddaughter's shoulder and turned to leave.

After Nalan Jie left, tears flowed uncontrollably from Nalan Yanran's eyes.

It wasn't that she felt Xiao Yan was humiliating her, but rather that her heart, which had always been smooth sailing for over a decade, had suffered an indescribable blow for the first time.

In fact, whether on Dou Qi Continent or Earth, there are always geniuses who have a smooth and successful path to growth, and such an environment fosters their strong sense of self-esteem and pride.

It is a driving force for them to continue to forge ahead. However, sometimes being too rigid can lead to breaking. Once they suffer a deep blow, such people often become despondent and suffer a mental breakdown.

From then on, they become trapped in a self-imposed cage, and may even become depressed to death.

On the contrary, someone like Xiao Yan, who suffers repeated defeats and battles, develops an independent perspective on his life amidst countless setbacks and hardships.

Such people, after weathering the storms of time, often come to know what they truly want.

What exactly does Xiao Yan want?

As night fell, the silvery moonlight bathed the entire capital in a silvery glow.

Ya Fei lay on the edge of the bathtub, her face flushed.

As for Xiao Yan, he had already become the man standing behind her.

The cheerful sound of flowing water echoed in the bucket.

Despite being contradicted, the chief auctioneer of Mittel, the "flower of the capital," gritted her teeth and endured it.

This is exactly what Xiao Yan wanted. From beginning to end, this imperial prince of the Xiao clan was an utterly vulgar person.

Born into this mundane world, why must one strive to transcend it?

In a grand hall of the Yunlan Sect, Nalan Yanran was looking at the woman in front of her.

The woman was dressed in a white robe, and her temperament was vaguely similar to that of Nalan Yanran. However, compared to Nalan Yanran, who had not yet grown up, she was like a piece of beautiful jade that had been initially carved.

Her appearance was neither seductive nor innocent, but rather possessed a graceful and intellectual beauty—the kind of beauty that could make many men want to marry her.

"Yanran, are you saying that the master of that battle aura avatar today was summoned by your fiancé's protector?"

Who else could this woman be besides Yun Yun, the sect leader of the Yunlan Sect?

"Yes, teacher, he is no longer my fiancé." Nalan Yanran's face was blank, which made Yun Yun feel a little sorry for her.

But thinking of her dying teacher, she finally spoke up, "Could you introduce this Xiao Yan to my teacher?"

"Teacher." Nalan Yanran looked up suddenly, her eyes sparkling.

"Yanran." Yun Yun gently pulled the girl into her arms, resting her snow-white chin on the girl's head helplessly, and said with some despair, "Teacher's teacher is about to die. No matter what, teacher wants to try. Can you understand teacher?"

After a while, Nalan Yanran returned to her own mountain peak and sat quietly on the large rock where she usually practiced, looking at the moon in the sky.

A sense of powerlessness rose in my heart again.

"Surpassing Xiao Yan seems to be an impossible thing." Thinking of Xiao Yan's own strength and those two terrifying protectors, Nalan Yanran felt a sense of despair.

"Hehehe, little girl, you seem to be quite troubled." A sinister laugh rang in Nalan Yanran's ears.
