14: Xiao Yan was moved, and Xiao Xun'er visited Huncang!

Chapter 14: Xiao Yan's Gratitude, Xiao Xun'er Visits Soul Cang!

Thirty years to the east of the river, thirty years to the west; do not bully a young man into poverty...

All eyes turned to Soul Cang.

Clearly, no one had expected this Dou Huang adult to say such words.

Xiao Yan, as the person involved, felt his eyes tremble.

Big Brother actually thinks so highly of me!

One must know that for the past three years, ever since his Dou Qi disappeared, he had suffered the most cold shoulders and ridicule in the family.

If, before, at the auction house, Xiao Yan had felt some resistance about acknowledging Soul Cang as his Big Brother just to cling to a powerful figure,

then at this moment, he had completely accepted it.

Nalan Yanran was silent for two seconds, her gaze shifting between Xiao Yan and Soul Cang, and she said, “Alright, three years from now, I will wait for him at the Yun Lan Sect!”

“It's a deal. Three years from now, I will definitely go to the Yun Lan Sect. I will surely repay the humiliation of today!” Xiao Yan said with a firm tone, barely suppressing a choke in his voice.

“Elder Ge, let's go!” Nalan Yanran ignored him, her expression cold as she walked out.

Ge Ye bowed to Soul Cang with trepidation, his feet moving as if he were treading on wind, not wanting to stay in the Xiao Family for another moment.

“Wait a moment!”

As he neared the door, Soul Cang's voice suddenly came.

Ge Ye's heart sank, and he turned around, at a loss, then saw a dark shadow fly towards him. He subconsciously raised his hand to catch it.

It was a box.

Soul Cang said indifferently, “My second brother doesn't need your things.”

“Yes, yes.” Ge Ye obediently put it away, waited a moment, and seeing no other instructions from Soul Cang, he pulled the young man beside him and fled from the Xiao Family as if escaping.

Nalan Yanran had already boarded the carriage, and Ge Ye also got in, with the young man still responsible for driving.

However, the young man's face no longer held the arrogance it had upon arrival; it was replaced by pallor and fear.

“I never thought that Xiao Yan would actually have a Dou Huang-level Big Brother…” Through the carriage window, Ge Ye looked at the gradually blurring Xiao Family in the distance, sighing with a complicated tone.

…

“It's actually true…”

“With a Dou Huang Big Brother, Xiao Yan is going to take off from now on!”

“I really don't understand what kind of dog shit Xiao Yan stepped on to have such good luck.”

“Keep your voice down, you'll have to call him Soul Young Clan Leader from now on.”

The Xiao Family members were driven out of the hall by Xiao Zhan, shattering their illusion of trying to show their faces in front of Soul Cang.

A group of people whispered among themselves, looking back inside, and when their gaze swept over Xiao Yan, the envy and jealousy in their eyes were very strong.

“If I hadn't changed my attitude towards Brother Xiao Yan, would I also be like Sister Xun'er…”

In the crowd, Xiao Mei watched Xiao Yan introduce Xiao Xun'er to Soul Cang, watching the young Dou Huang affectionately ruffle Xiao Xun'er's head.

She felt incredibly downcast for a moment, and her steps seemed to become heavier.

Soon, only Xiao Zhan, the three Elders, as well as Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun'er remained in the main hall.

Soul Cang was invited by Xiao Zhan to sit in the seat of honor, with Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun'er sitting beside him.

After some pleasantries, using the topic of Xiao Yan's broken engagement, they became a bit more familiar with each other.

“Big Brother, I've disgraced you.” Xiao Yan said dejectedly.

All this time, he had believed that after transmigrating, he was the protagonist, and a vast and beautiful sky awaited him to explore and soar.

The series of setbacks made Xiao Yan feel somewhat ashamed.

Especially after getting to know Soul Cang, he felt even more mortified.

Firstly, in terms of strength, Soul Cang had already become a Dou Huang, an existence of power in the Gama Empire.

And he himself was still at Dou Qi Stage Three.

Most importantly, their ages were clearly not much different.

Comparing people truly makes one furious!

Secondly, Xiao Yan himself had not expected today's broken engagement by Nalan Yanran.

What he had even less expected was that when Nalan Yanran brought up the Yun Lan Sect and was aggressive, it was his Big Brother who helped him out of the predicament.

It was truly embarrassing...

Soul Cang wanted to laugh, but he didn't want to ruin his image as a good Big Brother, so he held back and said, “A true man gets up from where he falls. If you defeat her three years from now, won't that be enough?”

Xiao Yan nodded, then shook his head and said, “It's not that simple, Big Brother. I will cultivate, and she will also improve. I've already wasted three years; how can it be so easy to catch up?”

He looked frustrated, and remembering that harmful ring, he couldn't help but grit his teeth!

“It's alright. With Big Brother here, you can cultivate with peace of mind. Leave the rest to me!” Soul Cang said calmly.

Xiao Zhan echoed, “Yes, Yan'er, your father will also help. You just focus on cultivating well.”

“That's right, Soul Young Clan Leader. The entire family supports you. Just tell us old fellows if you need anything,” the First Elder said.

The Second Elder and Third Elder also nodded.

“You all…” Xiao Yan looked at Soul Cang's serious expression and choked out, “Big Brother, don't worry, I will cultivate well and not disappoint you.”

After chatting for a while, Xiao Zhan and the three Elders voluntarily left, leaving the space for the children to talk.

Xiao Xun'er scrutinized Soul Cang for a few seconds, then also excused herself.

Xiao Yan faced Soul Cang alone. This was only their second meeting, and he was a bit shy and nervous, but Soul Cang was like a brother, hooking his arm around his shoulder and talking about life in their previous world.

The two instantly closed the distance between them.

After having dinner at the Xiao Family, Soul Cang did not stand on ceremony when faced with Xiao Zhan's invitation and simply stayed at the Xiao Family.

Over the next few days, he had Xiao Yan buy medicinal ingredients, asked Yao Chen to refine them, and then he would hand them over to Xiao Yan. Rewards flowed continuously, and the system's wool was being plucked rapidly.

“Kid, you're going too far. It was clearly my hard work in refining, yet you're taking all the credit,” Yao Chen couldn't help but emerge from the ring after Xiao Yan happily left with his cultivation resources once again.

After a few days of getting along, he found that although Soul Cang was from the Soul Clan, he was different from those gloomy fellows. He also became bolder and would crack some jokes.

Soul Cang put away the pills rewarded by the system, smiled, and looked at him, saying, “If you hadn't secretly absorbed my second brother's Dou Qi, how would he have been bullied like this? Now, isn't it right for you to compensate him by refining medicine?”

“…” Yao Chen was speechless. Could that be the same?

My situation was special at the time, and I had no choice but to absorb it. When I recover in the future, I will definitely compensate him.

Now, every time Xiao Yan came over, he would complain about him a couple of times.

After glaring at Soul Cang twice, Yao Chen sensed movement and retreated into the ring.

“Brother Soul Cang, may I come in?” The next second, a clear voice came from outside the door.

“Please come in.”

As soon as Soul Cang finished speaking, the door was pushed open, and a young woman wearing a light green dress, with a temperament like a green lotus, walked in.

“Sister Xun'er, what can I do for you?” Seeing the person who arrived, Soul Cang's expression was calm.

As early as the day Nalan Yanran broke off the engagement, Soul Cang had felt Xiao Xun'er's gaze lingering on him.

“Brother Soul Cang, why are you so good to Brother Xiao Yan?” Xiao Xun'er asked with a blank expression and a slow, deliberate tone, golden flames faintly flickering in her eyes.

Others might not know, but that didn't mean she wasn't clear about Soul Cang's origins.
