Xiao Yan's words struck a somewhat embarrassing sore spot, and Xiao Yu's pretty face turned iron-green. Her jade hand reached out and directly grasped the hilt of the long sword at her waist.

  The corners of his mouth curled up in a faint cold smile as he gazed at Xiao Yu's pale face, and Xiao Yan's body leaned back slightly, lazily saying: "Want to make a move?"

  "What can you do now?" Xiao Yu Yu's hand tightly grasped the hilt of her sword, suppressing the urge to draw it and strike. She sneered coldly: "Even if you were to come back today, what could you do? Three years ago, I, Xiao Yu, was able to chase you away with ease; three years later, I can still do the same."

  Xiao Yan's eyebrows slightly raised, his eyes swept over the three golden stars on Xiao Yu's chest, which was hidden under her light purple school uniform. Those three stars represented Xiao Yu's current strength, a Three-Star Fighter. It seemed that this stubborn woman had also made significant progress in her training at the academy this year.

  "What are you looking at?" Seeing Xiao Yan's gaze, Xiao Yu's already pale face turned even colder.

  "You dress up like this, isn't it for men to see?" Xiao Yan touched his nose, seemingly careless words, but always made Xiao Yu furious.

  "You little scoundrel!" Gnashing his silver teeth, Xiao Yu finally couldn't bear it anymore and with a "whoosh" sound, he drew out the long sword at his waist, pointing it straight at Xiao Yan: "Believe me or not, I'll cut off your tongue!"

  Looking at the cold light flashing in front of him, Xiao Yan's eyes didn't blink, and he said softly, "Want to try?" As he spoke, Xiao Yan's right palm slightly curled up, with a strong suction force, gradually taking shape in his palm. With three kinds of mysterious stage fighting skills, if he really fought with all his might, he wouldn't be too afraid of the three-star fighter.

  Looking at the two people facing each other, Xun'er on the side shook her head slightly and smiled, reminding: "Uncle Xiao and the others are coming."

  Listening to Xun Er's reminder, Xiao Yu's eyebrows slightly furrowed as she turned her head, and indeed saw Xiao Zhan rushing over with a somewhat changed expression.

  "Hmph, consider yourself lucky."

  She snorted, sheathed her long sword and turned to leave with her sensual and slender legs. As she passed by Xun Er, she suddenly stopped in her tracks and said, "Xun Er, your looks and innate talent are exceptional, but you should keep a distance from certain people, otherwise you might pick up some bad habits later on and regret it when it's too late."

  Xiao Yu's reminder made Xun'er smile faintly, and she said with a smile: "Thank you for reminding me, Sister Xiao Yu, but I think Brother Xiao Yan is very good."

  Listening to Xun Er's words with profound meaning, Xiao Yu Qiao's face changed slightly, her eyes swept across Xun Er's calm smile, and she said with a hint of profundity: "Wait until you leave the family later, then you'll know how vast the outside world is. There are countless men more outstanding than that guy. Who knows when you might encounter a man who moves your heart..."

  "Xiao Yu, elder sister, you're worrying too much. Xun Er won't have the things you said happen to her." Xun Er's small mouth slightly pursed and faintly interrupted Xiao Yu's words.

  Xiao Yu was interrupted by Xiao Er and felt slightly embarrassed. After glancing fiercely at Xiao Yan, he reluctantly left with some displeasure.

  Looking at the departing Xiao Yu, Xiao Yan slowly let out a breath, and his face returned to its usual calmness. He whispered: "What an annoying woman."

  Upon hearing this, Xun'er's eyes sparkled with amusement as she covered her mouth and chuckled lightly: "Actually, I'm really curious why she always can't get along with Brother Xiao Yan. Although you unintentionally barged into her bath that year, it shouldn't have led to her being at odds with you all the time, right?"

  "How would I know?" Xiao Yan innocently spread his hands and immediately shifted his gaze to Xiao Zhan and the others who were walking over quickly.

  "Xiao Yan, are you alright? What just happened with Xiao Yu?" He quickly walked over, looking at Xiao Yan who was unscathed, Xiao Zhan let out a sigh of relief and asked with furrowed brows.

  He slightly shrugged his shoulders and Xiao Yan smiled: "It's nothing, that woman suddenly went mad for a moment."

  "You'd better avoid her, this girl is also a spoiled and stubborn one. She's now a three-star warrior, if she starts fighting, you'll be in big trouble. Moreover, she's the grand elder's own granddaughter, even I wouldn't dare to punish her if things get out of hand." Xiao Zhan said helplessly.

  Xiao Yan rubbed his nose and smiled ambiguously.

  "Come, Yan Er, let me introduce you. This is Miss Ya Fei, the chief auctioneer of Temir Auction House. The Zhu Ji Ling liquid we got last time was auctioned off by her." Xiao Zhan stepped aside, revealing a stunning woman in a red dress standing behind him, and smiled as he introduced her.

  Xiao Yan cast his gaze towards the beautiful woman who exuded mature charm with every gesture, a shy smile spreading across her small face: "Sister Ya Fei, hello."

  The alluring gaze swept across Xiao Yan's face, and the beautiful cheeks of Ya Fei added a hint of a smile due to his address. Her red lips parted slightly as she smiled and said: "I heard that Young Master Xiao Yan broke through four levels of Dou Qi within a year? Hehe, this matter is now being spread like wildfire in Wu Tan City, but I don't know if it's true or false?"

  Xiao Yan scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed: "It's all thanks to Father's purchase of the Foundation Establishment Elixir."

  Listening to Xiao Yan's veiled acknowledgment, even Ya Fei, with her calm demeanor, couldn't help but take a light breath of cool air. A hint of surprise and solemnity flashed across her beautiful eyes. This cultivation progress was indeed somewhat terrifying. As for the second-grade foundation-establishing spiritual liquid, it was automatically omitted by Ya Fei. Having gone through her hands, she naturally knew its effects. She said it could increase some cultivation speed, which wasn't false, but if one wanted to rely on it to advance four stages in a year, that was absolutely impossible.

  Having seen the two already having a preliminary acquaintance, Xiao Zhan raised his head to glance at the sky, then patted Xiao Yan's shoulder and smiled warmly: "Alright, the adult ceremony is about to begin, I need to go prepare some things. You mustn't embarrass me in front of Father later."

  Xiao Yan nodded with a smile.

  Following Xiao Zhan, Ya Fei turned around and stared deeply at the young man in front of her for a moment. Years of auction training had honed her eyes to be extremely sharp, and under her careful observation, Ya Fei suddenly felt a chill in her heart as she discovered that although the young man looked shy, his dark pupils were always calm and peaceful, like a deep and bottomless abyss.

  "At such a young age, she can easily control her emotions. This little one is not simple...” Turning around, Yafei's heart had some heavy and obscure thoughts.
