Chapter 121 Xiao Yan
Xiao family mansion!
The three elders of the Xiao family glared at Xiao Zhan. Such a good opportunity was not used to enhance the family's strength, but was used to find out why a waste became a waste.
What a waste, what a waste!
But Xu Haoyu had already spoken, and the three elders could only watch. Xiao Zhan immediately arranged for his servants to call Xiao Yan over.
Not long after, a man and a woman came in from outside the open door. They both looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old. The boy looked young but was mature beyond his age. However, his whole body exuded an air of decadence.
The girl, wearing a green dress, had a beautiful face and an appearance that could topple a country and a city. She was obviously a beauty at first glance, but her attention was all on the young man.
When Xu Haoyu saw the two people, he could confirm their identities, Xiao Yan, Xiao Xun'er, and... Yao Chen.
Yao Chen's soul is at least at the level of great perfection in the spiritual realm. With Xu Haoyu's soul at the level of great perfection in the mortal realm, it is actually impossible to track his breath.
However, relying on his sensitivity to the strange fire, Xu Haoyu captured a hint of unusual movement. After all, the new type of strange fire that Xu Haoyu had fused together four kinds of strange fire was far stronger than the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, which was why he was able to sense it so accurately.
The two entered the living room, and Xiao Yan turned his gaze to Xu Haoyu, with a hint of shock and hope in his eyes.
Before coming, Xiao Yan already knew the whole story. His father, Xiao Zhan, asked Xu Haoyu, a sixth-rank alchemist, to take a look at the reason why his fighting spirit had declined.
This fatherly love made him feel warm in his heart, but also gave him a heavy pressure.
As for Xiao Xun'er, she glanced at Xu Haoyu, and although there was a hint of surprise in her eyes, she quickly turned her gaze back to Xiao Yan. Perhaps she was very traditional. Ever since Xiao Yan sneaked into her room and touched her when she was a child, she has been in love with Xiao Yan ever since.
At this time, Xiao Zhan hurriedly greeted and said:
"Yan'er, come and meet Master Xu. He is a sixth-rank alchemist and will definitely be able to tell the condition of your body."
Xiao Yan had been silent for nearly three years, and had endured countless cold stares during these three years. Therefore, the sharp gazes from the Xiao family members around him, especially the three elders, had not had the slightest effect on him.
He stepped forward silently, saluted and said:
"Xiao Yan meets Master Xu!"
Xiao Yan looked at Xu Haoyu, and Xu Haoyu was also looking at Xiao Yan.
This was the first time the two met. Although they were of similar age, their strength and status were very different.
Xu Haoyu looked Xiao Yan up and down for a few times, then smiled and waved his hand, saying to everyone:
"Everyone, please go out first. I've noticed a problem. Let me try to solve it."
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yan, the father and son, were overjoyed. As for the other members of the Xiao family, they looked at each other and whispered to each other.
But they dared not disobey Xu Haoyu's order, so they left their seats one after another and walked out of the hall. Finally, Xiao Zhan and Xiao Xun'er also walked out.
Xiao Xun'er looked back every few steps, as if she was worried that something had happened to her brother Xiao Yan.
In this regard, Xu Haoyu just wanted to say that Xiao Yan was really lucky to be able to hook up with such a rich woman who had great potential, a strong background, and most importantly, was devoted to Xiao Yan.
Suddenly, Xu Haoyu said:
"Zi Yan, you should go out for a while." Zi Yan stood up in surprise, very surprised, but she didn't insist on staying:
"Ah, I have to go out too. Okay, okay, I'll leave this place to you."
After Zi Yan left, only Xu Haoyu and Xiao Yan were left in the living room.
Xu Haoyu waved his hand, and a soul perception swept out, snap, snap, snap...all the doors and windows were closed, and under the coverage of the soul perception, outsiders could not see, hear, or detect the situation in the living room.
Xiao Yan was a little nervous. The man in front of him not only asked everyone to go out, but also closed all the doors and windows. What on earth did he want to do?
After finishing all this, Xu Haoyu sat on the chair, looked at Xiao Yan and said leisurely:
"Senior, why don't you come out yet?"
Xiao Yan was puzzled. Who was he talking to? He opened his mouth and said:
"Master Xu, what do you mean?"
Seeing that Yao Chen did not come out, and seeing that Xiao Yan asked a question, Xu Haoyu simply explained:
"When I saw you, I discovered that there was a soul body lingering on your body. The reason for your decline in fighting spirit is not due to your body. It is probably this soul body that absorbed the fighting spirit you cultivated."
Xiao Yan's face changed drastically, his fists clenched, his face ferocious. This turned out to be the reason why he became useless. It was not his own problem, but someone absorbed his fighting spirit:
"Master Xu, are you telling the truth?"
Xu Haoyu continued leisurely:
"That's right, senior. If you don't show up, it will be embarrassing if I find you out."
As soon as he said this, a storage ring in Xiao Yan's arms suddenly flew out and hung in the air. White air currents emerged and condensed into the figure of an old man, who was Yao Chen.
After he appeared, Xiao Yan was shocked to find that there was actually a soul hidden in him, in the ring left by his mother.
According to Xu Haoyu, it was this soul body that absorbed all his fighting spirit and turned him into a waste.
Therefore, Xiao Yan looked towards Yao Chen with eyes full of hatred and anger. The three years of humiliation were all because of this soul body.
Yao Chen was stared at like this, and he coughed lightly out of embarrassment. He ignored Xiao Yan for the time being, and looked at Xu Haoyu, and said in a serious voice:
"Young man, I am shocked by your excellence. At the age of thirteen or fourteen, you are already a nine-star Dou Wang. I also heard that you are a sixth-rank alchemist. If my perception is correct, you have a strange fire on your body that makes my Bone Spirit Cold Fire tremble. You may have discovered me through this."
Xu Haoyu looked at Yao Chen, then at Xiao Yan, smiled playfully, and began to sow discord:
"Senior, you are too kind. I broke through to the Dou Zhe level at the age of nine, and I heard that Xiao Yan broke through to the Dou Zhe level at the age of eleven. If you hadn't absorbed his Dou Qi over the past few years, even if he is a little worse than me, he should be a Dou Ling now, instead of the current... third stage Dou Qi..."
As expected, when Xu Haoyu said this, Xiao Yan's eyes turned red. His original Dou Ling was dragged down by this soul body and turned into the third level of Dou Qi.
Yao Chen secretly thought that this was not good. He had done something unkind, but he also wanted to test Xiao Yan and temper his character. Otherwise, with Xiao Yan's original proud and complacent attitude, he might never be able to leave the Jia Ma Empire in his entire life and could only be the king of this small place.
