Chapter 100: Misty Cloud Sect Comes to the Door
The next day, in Xiao Ming's courtyard, there was the sound of shouts and explosions reverberating one after another.
Hyah!
Boom!
A leggy young girl was fighting against Xiao Ming. To be precise, the young girl was attacking Xiao Ming with all her might, while Xiao Ming easily dodged the young girl's attack with a few movements of his body.
While dodging the girl's attack, Xiao Ming's mouth kept reciting.
"Cousin Xiao Yu, your move should be a little more powerful."
"No, it's too slow, a little faster ..."
"Raise your hand three points higher ..."
Time passed slowly, seeing that Xiao Yu's breathing seemed to be ragged, Xiao Ming raised his hand to grab Xiao Yu's long leg by the ankle as she threw it.
"That's all for today." As he said this, Xiao Ming opened his hand, allowing Xiao Yu to stand firmly.
Xiao Yu stood firm and wiped the sweat from her face, her face was a little flushed from the exercise, "Thank you very much cousin for teaching me Dou Techniques."
"It's nothing, I also have to exercise my muscles every morning, training with you or training alone, there's not much difference."
Unlike the panting Xiao Yu, Xiao Ming's face remained unchanged and he said calmly as if he was not the one who had just been attacked by Xiao Yu with all her might.
Xiao Yu was looking for Xiao Ming to practice her Dou Techniques, it was at the time when they were returning to the clan when Xiao Ming saw Xiao Yu practicing her techniques on the griffin beast and casually gave her some advice.
From then on, Xiao Yu would go to Xiao Ming to ask him anything she didn't understand about her cultivation.
Xiao Ming was in a good mood to answer questions from outsiders like Master Gu Ni, so he would not be stingy with his clanmates.
Xiao Ming had always been very optimistic about diligent people.
Talent was essential, but hard work could equal many things.
If one's talent was not enough, there were things in this world that could change it. If one's talent was poor and one did not work hard, then there was really nothing that could be done.
Xiao Ming walked over to the table in the small courtyard, beside the table, Zi Yan was sitting on a chair, swinging her legs in boredom, with some pills stuffed into her mouth from time to time in her hand.
Xiao Ming lifted the teapot from the table, poured three cups of tea, and called Xiao Yu over as he sat down to rest.
After taking a sip of the tea, Xiao Yu felt that the Dou Qi in her body seemed to have grown a few points, and her pretty face was somewhat surprised as she said, "What kind of tea is this, can it really have the effect of increasing Dou Qi?"
"Rain Flower Tea, I got it by chance, it can increase the Dou Qi of people with the cultivation level of Dou Grandmaster and below, it is no longer of any use to me, if you like it, I can give you some."
Xiao Ming closed his eyes and tasted the tea before saying.
This Rain Flower Tea was extracted from his simulation yesterday, and he had a ton.
This time he didn't have to fear not having enough tea for himself, and besides, he could share it with the others.
"It wouldn't be too good... it's better to forget about it." Xiao Yu was a girl after all and had thin skin, so it was fine to drink with Xiao Ming, but it seemed a bit unjustified to drink something so expensive.
Looking at Zi Yan, who was drinking tea like water beside him, Xiao Ming was amused and reached out his hand to stroke her little head before slowly saying.
"Well then, you should hurry up and cultivate to Dou Master, and when the time comes, I'll give you some Rain Flower Tea as a reward for being a family genius."
Knock, knock, knock!
Without waiting for Xiao Yu to respond, the courtyard door rang.
Seeing this, Xiao Yu took the initiative and went to open the door.
After a few words of conversation with the person at the door, Xiao Yu sat back down next to Xiao Ming.
Before sitting down, Xiao Yu said, "The clan head has asked you to go to the meeting room."
"For the matter of the Misty Cloud Sect coming to visit, right? Have the people from the Misty Cloud Sect arrived?"
Taking a sip of tea, Xiao Ming said slowly.
The Misty Cloud Sect's deacon came to the door yesterday to deliver the notification, and naturally, he knew this as the Xiao Family's Supreme Elder, and this was something Xiao Zhan had personally come to tell him about.
At that moment, in front of him, Xiao Zhan's face had such a big smile that it was full of wrinkles.
Looking at him, he shook his head and could not bear to tell him that it was a marriage arrangement annulment in 99% of cases.
That said, Xiao Zhan, as Clan Head, used to be quite cunning, so how come he didn't notice?
Xiao Yan was now a well-known waste in the three-star Dou Disciple, and the other party, Nalan Yanran, was now the Little Sect Leader of the Misty Cloud Sect, a future Dou Emperor powerhouse and one of the future most powerful and influential figures in the Empire.
How could he think that Misty Cloud Sect would be happy to marry the future Sect Leader to his son? It's possible that no one would be.
This was the Dou Qi Continent, a world where the strong are respected.
Even if the Xiao Clan now had him as a sixth-tier alchemist, other forces, such as the Misty Cloud Sect, would not necessarily give him face.
This was because, if Xiao Yan did not reach the seven-star Dou Disciple at the coming of age ceremony, then he would only be an ordinary member of the Xiao Clan, whose status in the clan was not too low, but not high either.
The Xiao Family had been developing in the Jia Ma Empire for many years and the number of ordinary clan members was really very large.
Therefore, the difference in status and strength between the two was too great.
Most importantly, the other person, Nalan Yanran, was still the one who wanted to pursue her freedom.
Since childhood, also because of Nalan Jie, she has long been dissatisfied with this marriage, even if Xiao Yan's talent is still there, there was still a probability that she will overturn this marriage arrangement.
"The person who sent the message just now said that it is almost time for the Misty Cloud Sect to arrive at the door, so you remember to take a seat before they come."
Saying this, Xiao Yu felt a little curious and asked, "I heard my grandfather say that the people coming from the Misty Cloud Sect this time are the Sect Leader and the Little Sect Leader of the Misty Cloud Sect, is this true?"
"Yes, it is true that the Sect Leader of the Misty Cloud Sect is coming to the clan, if she didn't, there would be no need for me to go and join in the fun."
Xiao Ming said and rolled his eyes, if it was that Ge Ye and Nalan Yanran coming to the door, then he wouldn't bother going there.
After all, the annulment of the marriage arrangement was ultimately a matter proper to Xiao Zhan's lineage and had nothing to do with him.
Moreover, the annulment of the marriage arrangement was still taking place within the Xiao family and, when the time came, he only had to ask his own people not to spread the word.
He only had to preserve the face of the Xiao family, and as for the Xiao Zhan lineage, this was a definite loss of face anyway, no matter what occasion it was.
Because of Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran's marriage arrangement, all the Xiao family's top brass knew about it.
As for advising Nalan Yanran not to annul the marriage arrangement, Xiao Ming also had no such thoughts, although he had been in the Dou Qi Continent for more than ten years and his mentality had been slowly changed by this world, he still had certain principles that remained firmly in his heart.
This kind of marriage arrangement arose from the ugly practice of engaging them from before birth, he, who had received a modern education, did not want to encourage that kind of practice.
Now, because of his presence, the Misty Cloud Sect had at least given enough face.
At least it wasn't just sending a deacon, Yun Yun was also the elder of Nalan Yanran, came to the door personally.
Sighing, Xiao Ming stood up, "Alright, come on, let's go together and see, what does this Sect Leader of the Misty Cloud Sect look like?"
"Mm hmm."
Xiao Yu nodded with some excitement, Yun Yun, being one of the few female powerhouses, still had great popularity in the Jia Ma Empire.
Many female cultivators followed her as a model.
Taking Zi Yan's small hand, Xiao Ming and Xiao Yu walked across the backyard and finally stopped outside the solemn welcome hall.
The doors of the meeting hall were wide open, and the three of them entered the hall.
The spacious hall was already crowded with people, and the six seats at the top were already occupied by five people, namely Xiao Shan, Xiao Zhan, and the three elders.
Xiao Shan had also received an elder's position after returning home and was responsible for managing some things.
