Chapter 16 Chapter 16 Tranquility After the Contest

Walking slowly on the tree-lined path between the colleges, Xiao Yan squinted his eyes slightly, not paying too much attention to the scorching gazes from around him. Since he won the championship in the selection competition two days ago, this gaze has been on him all the time. Being by Xiao Yan's side initially annoyed him a bit, but as time passed, he could only pretend to ignore it numbly.In this regard, he can't do anything, after all, his eyes are on others. It has been two days since the selection match ended today. During these two days, Xiao Yan not only fully recovered from the injuries he suffered in the match, but also his strength was completely stabilized at the level of a six-star fighter, and his state was almost at any time. He was at the peak state at any moment, and the fighting energy in his body flowed like a flood, which made Xiao Yan feel comfortable all over his body.

According to the rules of the academy, within seven days after the selection competition ends, the top 50 students in the selection competition have to start preparing to enter the inner court, and the top five students such as Xiao Yan can choose within these seven days. Time to enter the library of the college, as a reward, they are eligible to rely on luck in it and choose something that belongs to them. Xiao Yan is also quite interested in the mysterious library library that even Xun'er can't forget, but according to the rules, when entering it, the top five must enter at the same time, but now Bai Shan, Hu Jia, and Wu Hao are Still lying in the hospital.According to what Lu Mu said, the three of them don't even think about walking in three or five days. When he said this, Lu Mu looked at Xiao Yan with a strange and fortunate look.Obviously, he remembered that luckily when he was fighting Xiao Yan, this guy didn't go crazy and beat himself into that miserable appearance. As a person of the alchemy department, the sufferings of the three people in Baishan these two days, he But clearly in the eyes.

"I don't know what's in that Zangshu Pavilion, I hope I can get something suitable for myself." The warm sunlight shines on Xiao Yan's body through the gaps in the branches, and he murmured hopefully in his heart. "Cousin Xiao Yan." When Xiao Yan walked unhurriedly, a somewhat timid voice suddenly sounded in front of him. Hearing the voice, Xiao Yan stopped in his footsteps and opened his squinted eyes, looking forward, but I saw a group of lively and pretty young girls, and among these young girls, Xiao Mei was surrounded like stars.To be honest, Xiao Mei's appearance can be considered top-notch even in the entire academy... At this time, she was looking at Xiao Yan who was walking over with some restraint. It is the youth who reached the peak in this academy where countless talents gathered.

"Wow, Xiao Mei, it really is your cousin? He came over..." Beside Xiao Mei, those girls looked at Xiao Yan who was slowly approaching, and couldn't help blushing quickly on their cheeks, pulling Xiao Mei a little bit. exclaimed excitedly. Today's Xiao Yan's prestige in the outer courtyard of Canaan Academy almost surpasses that of Baishan before. The move of one against three is now talked about by countless students. His status has also been rapidly raised in the hearts of many students, and even though Xiao Yan is not completely handsome, his face is also at the delicate level, plus the gentle smile that is often on his face, also led to this. In just two days, many young girls gave him a sneak peek. A powerful man is always full of charm.

The increase in prestige also made the reputation that was originally passed down as extremely thorny in the academy because Xiao Yan took a two-year vacation into a synonym for full of personality. Young people are like this, people and things they like or fear, so no matter what flaws he had before, they will try their best to ignore or make up for them, and strive to make him the most perfect in their hearts.But the current Xiao Yan didn't say anything to explain himself, and the bad name of skipping classes for two years has been turned into a full of personality... Slowly approaching Xiao Mei who was a little nervous, Xiao Yan smiled slightly, nodded at her, paused in front of her for a while, smiled casually and talked a few words, and then brushed his hands from Xiao Mei's side. pass by.

Although Xiao Yan had a gentle smile on his face, Xiao Mei still felt the unfamiliarity. Hearing the envious voices of the girls around her, she had a sharp nose and her eyes were filled with gloom.Originally, they could be very close, she didn't need this kind of perfunctory greeting, she would rather he was angry with herself, that way, at least she could be thankful, there is anger, because it has the value of making him angry , but now Xiao Yan's plain appearance made Xiao Mei extremely heartbroken, hating a person was not because she was angry with her, but because she completely ignored her.The current Xiao Yan seems to have reached this step.

And all of this is all because of a mistake in Shang Shang's mind when she was a child! As Xiao Yan passed by, Xiao Mei sniffled her nose, trying not to let the moisture gather in her eyes. Although the regret in her heart made her want to hug him and cry bitterly, she still raised her pretty face. He forced a smile at the envious girls beside him, and then turned to leave. "By the way, can you come with me? I want to tell you something." Just as Xiao Mei left sadly, a smiling voice suddenly sounded, making her body stiff on the spot. Turning her head hastily, she saw Xiao Yan's gentle face was startled, and he nodded hurriedly, and then, ignoring greetings to the girls beside him, he hurriedly followed Xiao Yan under the envious eyes of the girls.

Xiao Yan led Xiao Mei slowly to a quiet lake with surprised gazes all the way. Standing in front of the lake, he was silent for a while, and carefully explained what happened in the Xiao family.In any case, Xiao Mei is also a member of the Xiao family. She is qualified to know about the family relocation, and Xiao Yan has always felt guilty about the family relocation. This kind of involvement, although he didn't have a good impression of this family when he was a child, but the Xiao family has always been the hard work of his father and the ancestors of the Xiao family.Now that his father is missing, he, Xiao Yan, has become the acting patriarch of the Xiao family. This can be known from the fact that the three elders handed over to him the mysterious piece of jade that can store the soul spots of the patriarch. , because this piece of jade has been the status symbol of the head of the Xiao family in the past dynasties.

"The family has moved?" Hearing the news, Xiao Mei was also startled, her eyebrows frowned slightly, looking at Xiao Yan's face, she blinked her eyes smartly, and guessed: "Is it because of the Misty Cloud Sect?" "Yeah." Xiao Yan smiled wryly, remained silent for a while, and then his tone suddenly became much colder: "I killed one of their elders, and then they became paralyzed. About this matter, when I return to Jia Ma Empire , will make a good settlement with them, and during the period when I am not going back, try not to return to the Jia Ma Empire, otherwise if your whereabouts are exposed, you and your family will suffer a devastating blow."

Xiao Mei nodded obediently, glanced at Xiao Yan from the corner of her eyes, and said softly: "Cousin Xiao Yan, don't worry, no one in the family will blame you for this matter, I am afraid that even the elders will feel that you can do such a thing. Very face-saving, after so many years, there are not many people who have the courage and qualifications to challenge the Misty Cloud Sect." Hearing this, Xiao Yan smiled, nodded immediately, and said, "I hope, the Xiao family is the painstaking effort of my father and the others, and I will try my best to preserve it."

"Cousin Yan can do it now, but back then..." Xiao Mei's words stopped abruptly, her pretty face turned a little pale, and she wanted to pinch her mouth with her palms. Finally, there was a gentle atmosphere, but she wanted to mention those things . "Well, what happened back then is in the past. Now I'm no longer a child, and it's useless to keep thinking about it." Xiao Yan's gaze stayed on the sparkling lake, then he turned his head and looked at Xiao Mei's face. With a timid look, she said: "No matter what, you are always my cousin... In the future, if you have something to do, come to me. Although I don't have the strength to keep the family's destiny in the Jia Ma Empire, but in this Canaan Academy, I can. Let the members of my Xiao family not be bullied." With a sigh of relief in his heart, Xiao Yan's words made Xiao smile more on his cheeks, and he nodded. "Okay, I have to go back first, remember, come to Teacher Ruolin to find me if you have something to do." Xiao Yan smiled, patted Xiao Mei on the shoulder, turned around and walked out of the path. Standing at the same spot, Xiao Mei looked at the back that was going away, and suddenly smiled. This seems to be an opportunity to break the deadlock, right? One day, nearly five days after the selection contest, when Xiao Yan returned to Mentor Ruolin's unique pavilion, he saw that Mentor Ruolin, Xun'er, Xiao Yu and others happened to be in it, and in front of them, also A middle-aged man in the robes of a college instructor is standing. "Hehe, what's the matter?" Walking into the living room with a smile on his face, Xiao Yan cast his eyes on Xun'er and said with a smile. "Brother Xiao Yan, this is Instructor Kuru." Xun'er greeted him with a smile, took Xiao Yan's coat and said softly: "The three of Baishan have recovered, according to the rules, this afternoon, it will be us It's time to enter the library." The forward steps paused slightly, Xiao Yan was startled, and then nodded with a smile.It's finally here. He has been looking forward to this so-called mysterious library for a long time. Now, he hopes it won't disappoint him...
