What Do You Call a Benevolent and Reasonable Person in Xianxia? An Impossibility! (BTTH)

"Mr. Xiao, this is your residence."

Under the guidance of the ancient clan guards, Xiao Yan came to a more remote house in the main city of the ancient clan. The house had everything it should have. In addition to being relatively simple, it was also very elaborately decorated, which made Xiao Yan feel relieved.

At least it can prove that he is still a good impression of the ancient clan, so the alliance is not so far away.

"Mr. Xiao, please have a good rest. I will take my leave first."

The ancient clan guard was about to leave after saying this, and Xiao Yan suddenly asked.

"Excuse me, can I walk around freely? I want to see what the ancient clan city looks like."

"Well, it can be, but I advise you not to do so." The ancient clan guard looked a little embarrassed, and said in Xiao Yan's puzzled eyes: "Because most of the young people in the ancient clan are a little unhappy with you, you may be troubled by them if you go out on the street casually."

"Don't like me? Why?"

Xiao Yan's eyes were full of confusion. He had never even seen these so-called young people of the ancient clan, so why did they dislike me?

As for Xiao Yan's question, the expression of the ancient clan guard was a little tangled.

Why do you dislike you? Of course it's because of Miss Xun'er.

Thanks to Xun'er's previous tough confrontation with the elders, it can be said that no one in the clan does not know Xiao Yan's name now.

Some people think that Xiao Yan is not worthy of Xun'er, so they are naturally hostile to Xiao Yan.

And the other part thinks that Xiao Yan has not responded at all even though his young lady has taken the initiative. Is he worthy of Miss Xun'er? In short, Xiao Yan's current situation in the ancient clan is that he is stuck in both ends. It is wrong to choose either side, which makes the ancient clan guard feel very sad.

As for Xiao Yan's question, the ancient clan guard naturally did not dare to directly bring up Xun'er's name. To put it bluntly, he did not want to get involved in this matter at all, so he just found a reason.

"The commander of the Black Annihilation Army, Gu Qinghan, has been following you in Zhongzhou, and has not returned for three years. Many of the younger generation of the Ancient Clan were raised by Gu Qinghan, so they are very unhappy with you as an outsider."

"I see."

Xiao Yan nodded in understanding, without any doubt. After all, this reason is too reasonable and there is nothing wrong with it.

"I understand. I will pay attention to it. Thank you very much for your reminder."

Xiao Yan smiled and thanked him. The Ancient Clan guard nodded and turned away.

Afterwards, Xiao Yan put his hands on his waist and looked around the room. He came to the table and pulled out a chair to sit down. He folded his hands against his mouth and quietly thought about the future direction.

His previous understanding of the Eight Clan was only derived from the verbal retelling of Yao Chen and others. He did not have such an intuitive feeling about the strength of the Eight Clan, which led Xiao Yan to hesitate whether it was necessary to form an alliance with the Eight Clan.

However, after witnessing the strength of the Ancient Clan today, Xiao Yan completely understood the gap between the Tianhe Alliance and the Eight Clans. Although the Ancient Clan is the strongest of the Eight Clans, the other Eight Clans are at the same level as the Ancient Clan, so they must not be much worse.

This also means that if he wants to continue on his own path, it is necessary to form an alliance with the Eight Clans.

However, the path of alliance has been decided, but what about after the alliance? After the forces in Zhongzhou are gathered together, they can still establish rules to restrict them, but it does not mean that the Eight Clans can do the same. They are just allied with the Tianhe Alliance, not sold to the Tianhe Alliance. Why should they obey the rules of the Tianhe Alliance?

"Huh" Xiao Yan leaned back in his chair and sighed, his brows full of worry, "In the end, can only rely on strength to speak?"

The concept that Xiao Yan wanted to promote from beginning to end is to abandon the law of the jungle, and Xiao Yan has been fighting with this concept until now.

After struggling for so long, Xiao Yan still found that he could only use the concept of the law of the jungle to get rid of the law of the jungle. However, even if he did it with strength, it would still be the law of the jungle in the eyes of others.

Everyone would only see that they were strong, but would not think that they were right.

"Headache. Let's go out for a walk."

Xiao Yan sat at the table and thought for a long time, and finally stood up and walked out the door.

Leaving the remote corner where the house was, Xiao Yan came to the more lively streets of the ancient clan's main city. Looking at the ancient clan members coming and going on the street, the afterglow of the evening sprinkled on the street, accompanied by the bustling quaint streets, inexplicably made people feel a sense of stability, which made Xiao Yan feel the warm curiosity of his childhood. This atmosphere inexplicably made people miss it.

At this time, Xiao Yan passed by a stall and saw an old woman with a kind face guarding the stall. Xiao Yan couldn't help but frowned when he saw her.

Dou Huang Peak. This old lady is obviously the most ordinary among the ancient clans, but she has Dou Huang Peak strength. You should know that Dou Huang Peak can compete for the top ten warriors in the previous Jia Ma Empire.

Then Xiao Yan withdrew his astonishment, and glanced at the various simple and rustic jewelry on the stall. Even if Xiao Yan himself was not very interested in these things, he could see how old these jewelry were.

It’s not that the things themselves are old, but this kind of aesthetics even Xiao Yan felt outdated when he was a child, let alone now.

(It’s no wonder. I have been staying in the ancient world for thousands of years. In addition to language, many cognitions are biased, let alone jewelry.) Xiao Yan thought so, picked up a piece of jewelry and fiddled with it in his hand, and then his expression suddenly became surprised.

Although the style of this jewelry is simple, the workmanship is really not covered, and the material is fine stone? ? ?

Xiao Yan looked around in disbelief at the jewelry in his hand. The so-called fine stone was a rarer ore in Zhongzhou than the stone used to cast the Na Ring. It was only in the past few years that Xiao Yan learned about the stone that Yunying had given him. The coffin is entirely made of fine stone.

Weapons made of fine stone have a very high absorption rate of fighting qi and are extremely strong. However, the hardness of the fine stone itself is also extremely terrifying, and it also has a great buffer against the blow of fighting qi. Even a seventh-grade alchemist cannot Forging, if there is no long-term burning with strange fire, it is impossible to forge weapons.

Can this really be said to be an ancient clan? Xiao Yan couldn't help but grin. Weapons made from fine stones would fetch sky-high prices on the mainland, but here they were actually used to make exquisite jewelry that was more laborious than weapons.

At this moment, the old woman guarding the stall looked up at Xiao Yan standing in front of the stall with a kind smile.

"Young man, are you from outside?"

"Ah, yes, I just arrived today." Xiao Yan came back to his senses, responded with a smile, and bent slightly to show the jewelry in his hand to the old woman, "Old man, how much does this jewelry cost?"

It's rare to visit the ancient tribe. This kind of fine stone jewelry is not available in Zhongzhou. Let's buy it as a gift for the little medical fairy and the others.

The old woman looked at Xiao Yan, the wrinkles on her face were twisted into a ball, but she still couldn't hide her kind temperament, and laughed.

"The money from outside is here, I'm afraid I won't be able to use it."

As she spoke, the old woman took the jewelry from Xiao Yan's hand and stared at the other jewelry on the stall with cloudy eyes. Xiao Yan looked a little embarrassed and continued.

"Then do you need elixirs or something like that? As long as they are elixirs of rank seven or below, I can get them out."

"Young man, are you very good outside?"

The old woman did not raise her head, her eyes were still staring at the jewelry on the stall. From time to time, she picked up a piece and placed it in front of her. Xiao Yan responded humbly.

"It's not bad. I can't reach my current position without luck and the help of many people. If it was just me, I would never be where I am now."

"Hehehe~" After hearing Xiao Yan's words, the old woman laughed again, "Young man, you are an honest person."

The old woman picked up another piece of jewelry, looked at it in front of her eyes, and said leisurely.

"Most of today's young people have the same face. No matter what achievements they have achieved, they are entirely the result of their own efforts and their own merit."

"High-minded, arrogant, proud, arrogant."

"As everyone knows, many things have been determined from the beginning."

"They think they got that result through their own hard work, but in most cases, they are born with the qualifications to get that result through hard work."

"However, these young people don't understand this at all. This is even more obvious among the young people of our ancient tribe."

"I was born to think that I was superior to others. I admire the blood of the ancient clan every day, but I also despise the outsiders of the clan as they should, thinking that their lack of strength is because they don't work hard enough."

"Relying on talent to stand above others, looking down and despising mediocre people who are not talented enough. What's even more strange is that many people seem to praise and promote this behavior."

The old woman piled the selected jewelry in front of her, took out a piece of white cloth and put the jewelry on top one by one, then took out a rope to wrap the white cloth, and then looked up at Xiao Yan.

"But old lady, I can feel that you are different from them."

"Although the old woman's strength is only average, I can still feel your extraordinary strength. At least I have never felt it in any young person in the clan."

"Even so, you, who are stronger than them, are more humble than them."

With that said, the old woman handed the tied cloth bag to Xiao Yan and smiled kindly.

"Take it, treat it as if the old woman gave it to you."

"Old man, this is not okay!"

Xiao Yan came to his senses and quickly raised his hand to refuse, but the old woman insisted on stuffing the cloth bag into Xiao Yan's hand.

"This thing may be expensive outside, but it's not worth much here. Old lady, I set up a stall here just for fun. I see the same street scene every day. Today I can see you so different. It’s a novel day for young people.”

"This" Xiao Yan looked at the cloth bag and was silent for a long time, and finally bowed his head to the old woman and thanked him, "Then I have thanked you for your kindness. During the time when I am disturbing the ancient clan, if you have any needs, you can always contact me at any time. If you put it forward, I will try my best to complete it.”

"Haha~"

The old woman chuckled and waved her hand. Xiao Yan put the cloth bag away, thanked her again and turned to leave.

As Xiao Yan walked away, the old woman looked at Xiao Yan's retreating back and opened her eyes slightly. The turbidity in her eyes had disappeared, revealing a breathtaking light.

"Xiao Yan. Could he be the descendant of that girl from the Xiao family?"

The old woman was murmuring like this, and suddenly a figure came to the stall to block the sunlight. Then the old woman's face revealed an unhappy look, and she turned her head slightly to look at the man standing in front of the stall.

The King of Black Annihilation, Gu Lie.

At this time, Gu Lie's eyes were full of respect, but his expression also revealed helplessness. The dignified King Heiyan actually bent down respectfully and spoke to the old woman cautiously.

"Senior, you are setting up a stall here again, why don't you just stay at home and enjoy your time?"

"Hmph!" The old woman snorted coldly and retorted: "Old lady, I just like to set up a stall, no? Do you still want to close my stall?"

"No, no, no! How dare I do that!" Gu Lie waved his hands quickly, and the panic on his face could not be suppressed, which was completely inconsistent with the majesty when he taught Gu Qinghan and others a lesson before. "Didn't the clan leader arrange a separate courtyard for you to enjoy your life? Why do you always go out on the street?"

"Don't mention that coward to me!"

The old woman's tone was a little high, and her old eyes glared fiercely, frightening Gu Lie's whole body, and the old woman continued to scold.

"The Gu clan is getting worse and worse now. The young ones are more arrogant than the sky, and the old ones are more indecisive than each other. If they had gone to support the Xiao clan, how could they have let the Soul clan succeed? If Gu Yuan had any face, he should have rolled down from the position of clan leader!"

Seeing the old woman mention this again, Gu Lie couldn't help but feel a headache. I wasn't even born a thousand years ago. Why do you always complain to me about this? It seems like it's my problem.

"Calm down, calm down, I won't mention it anymore."

Gu Lie quickly squatted beside the old woman to comfort her. The old woman gradually calmed down her anger and her breathing gradually slowed down.

"What do you want to see me for?"

"That... Actually, it's about Qinghan." Gu Lie's expression froze, and he glanced at her unnaturally, "Didn't you say before that you would train Qinghan as the next Black Annihilation King?"

"Ah~ That girl has a calm personality, respects elders, and cares for brothers and sisters. More importantly, she doesn't have the bad habit of being arrogant like the younger generation of the Gu clan. It would be great if all the young people of the Gu clan had the same temperament as her."

When Gu Qinghan was mentioned, the old woman's expression became obviously happy, and it can be seen how satisfied she is with Gu Qinghan.

When seeing the old woman's happy expression, Gu Lie's forehead was covered with sweat, and the words he wanted to say were like a lump in his throat, and he couldn't hold them out for a long time.

But this matter still needs to be said, after all, the four elders including Gu Lin, the father of Gu Qinghan, have agreed, and only the one in front of him has nodded.

"That... Actually..." Gu Lie's eyes dodged left and right, and he stammered: "Actually, I'm wrong. The elders discussed it and proposed a marriage to Qinghan. It has been decided. I want to ask for your consent here"

"What?!" (End of this chapter)
