(The order of chapters 35 and 36 is out of order, and the title cannot be changed after modification…)
Wu Tan City, Xiao Family.
As the sun sets, the golden afterglow falls on this bustling city, coating the entire city with a warm glow.
The streets are bustling with people coming and going, vendors are shouting one after another, and the air is filled with the aroma of various foods.
In the center of the city, a huge mansion stands majestically.
Although he had been away for many years, everything he saw still made him feel very familiar.
The mansion is even more majestic than before, with towering walls and grand gates, all reflecting the extraordinary status of the owner.
“In recent years, the Xiao family has indeed developed very well.”
Xiao Yan murmured to himself, a smile unconsciously appearing on his lips.
At this moment, an old man walked out of the house quickly.
His bright eyes lit up the moment he saw Xiao Yan, and a joyful smile burst out on his face.
“The third young master is back!”
The old man shouted excitedly, his voice full of joy.
Before he finished speaking, there was a commotion in the house. Immediately afterwards, countless Xiao family servants swarmed out, with expressions of surprise on their faces.
“Third Young Master!”
“The third young master is back!”
Cheers came and went, and the entire Xiao Mansion instantly became excited.
Xiao Yan looked at the passionate scene in front of him and couldn’t help but feel a little moved in his heart.
Although he had been away from home for many years, the people here still welcomed him so warmly, and this friendship made him feel warm.
At this moment, three figures walked out of the crowd.
The leader was an old man with white beard and hair, who was the eldest elder of the Xiao family.
Behind him, there were two old men with the same kind faces, who must be the second elder and the third elder.
“Third Young Master, you are finally back!”
The great elder stepped forward quickly and said excitedly. His old face was full of joy, and there were even tears in his eyes.
“Yes, we were looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally we have you back!”
The second elder also echoed, unable to hide the smile on his face.
The third elder stepped forward and took Xiao Yan’s hand, looking at him carefully.
“You’re welcome, three elders. I haven’t seen you for many years. Are you still in good health?”
Faced with the concern of the three elders, Xiao Yan felt warm in his heart and quickly returned the greeting.
“Thanks to the third young master, we old bones are still strong!”
The great elder said with a smile.
After exchanging a few words, Xiao Yan raised his head and looked into the depths of Xiao Mansion, with a complicated light flashing in his eyes.
“Father, the Xiao family is very prosperous now, if only you could see it!”
Xiao Yan murmured to himself, with a bit of emotion in his voice.
However, before he finished speaking, Xiao Yan’s eyes flashed with sadness. Although there was a smile on his lips, there was a bitterness that could not be concealed in the depths of his eyes.
The father’s whereabouts are still unknown. As a son, he has gained nothing for so many years, and the guilt and self-blame in his heart are beyond words.
Just when Xiao Yan was immersed in his thoughts, a burst of rapid footsteps suddenly came from a distance.
“Little Yanzi!”
A magnetic male voice sounded, interrupting Xiao Yan’s thoughts.
Xiao Yan looked up and saw two figures walking quickly towards this side.
The leader was a tall young man with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and an extraordinary bearing. Beside him, there was a middle-aged man with a handsome face, his eyes shining with wisdom.
It was Xiao Yan’s two elder brothers, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li.
“Big brother! Second brother!”
Xiao Yan showed a happy smile on his face and hurried forward to greet him.
“Haha, Xiao Yanzi, you are finally back!”
“Knowing that you were coming back, we came back from outside specially.”
Xiao Li took a step forward, hugged Xiao Yan’s shoulders, and said with a smile.
“Yes, I haven’t seen you for many years. Xiao Yanzi has grown a lot taller.”
Xiao Ding smiled and nodded.
When the three brothers met, they burst into laughter.
Now both of them have reached the level of Dou Wang, and can be regarded as strong men in the Jiama Empire.
However, Xiao Yan did not dwell on this topic for long, but turned to the real purpose of this trip.
“Brothers, when I come back this time, I actually have something important to do.”
Xiao Yan’s expression became serious, and his tone was somewhat solemn.
Xiao Ding and Xiao Li looked at each other and saw a trace of doubt in each other’s eyes.
“What is it? So serious?”
Xiao Ding asked.
“I want to meet my ancestor Xiao Chen.”
Xiao Yan took a deep breath and said slowly.
As soon as this statement came out, everyone present was stunned. They stared at Xiao Yan with wide eyes, their eyes full of disbelief.
“Meet the ancestors? Xiao Yanzi, what do you mean?”
Xiao Li asked with a frown, a bit of confusion in his tone.
“This matter is of great importance, why don’t we find a quiet place to talk in detail?”
Xiao Yan looked around and said softly.
In the study room, sandalwood lingers and the atmosphere is peaceful. Xiao Yan sat on the main seat, with Xiao Ding and Xiao Li on both sides. The three elders stood aside respectfully, waiting for Xiao Yan to speak.
“Although our ancestors are hiding from the world, they must have been paying attention to the Xiao family. I plan to refine a seventh-grade elixir, attract the elixir, and take the opportunity to call the ancestors.”
Xiao Yan pondered for a moment and said slowly.
Hearing this plan, everyone present took a deep breath. They knew very well what the seventh-grade elixir meant. It was a precious elixir that even some big forces might not have!
“You… you can refine the seventh-grade elixir now?!!”
Xiao Li widened his eyes and asked in disbelief.
“I was lucky to reach the level of a seventh-grade peak alchemist.”
Xiao Yan smiled slightly and nodded.
As soon as these words came out, the whole study room suddenly fell into a dead silence.
Everyone looked at Xiao Yan with shock, as if they had just met him for the first time.
A seventh-grade peak alchemist, such an achievement is rare even in the entire continent!
“In that case, let’s follow Xiao Yanzi’s plan. We, the Xiao family, must fully cooperate!”
After a long time, Xiao Ding came back to his senses and said with a deep breath.
Others heard this and nodded in agreement.
In the early morning of seven days later, the originally clear sky suddenly became gloomy.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder. The people of Wutan City were startled by this sudden vision.
However, the people of the Xiao family knew what this meant.
Xiao Yan’s figure slowly rose from the ground and finally floated in the air. He held a crystal clear pill in his hands, and a faint golden light emanated from his body.
“Boom!”
A thunderous sound suddenly sounded, followed by a thick lightning bolt falling from the sky and heading straight for Xiao Yan.
However, facing this terrifying pill thunder, Xiao Yan was not afraid at all. He took a deep breath, looked up at the sky suddenly, and shouted loudly:
“Xiao clan descendants, want to see the ancestors!”
Xiao Yan’s voice contained a powerful battle spirit fluctuation, which instantly spread throughout Wutan City.
If Xiao Chen was really paying attention here, he would definitely be able to hear his words. (End of this chapter)
