BATTLE THROUGH THE HEAVEN
FRACTION

the main hall, Xiao Zhan and the three clan elders were talking excitedly with the strange elder. The guest seemed to have something weighing down on his mind, yet whenever it seemed like he was about to start a conversation, he would swallow his words back and change the subject. Every time he did this, the delicate girl next to him would give an older yet firm look …

After listening to their conversation for a while, Xiao Yan grew tired of their conversation and his head slowly drooped …

"Brother Xiao Yan, do you know who they are?" Just when Xiao Yan was about to fall asleep from boredom, Xun Er who was beside him opened the ancient book and asked Xiao Yan.

"Do you know?" Xiao Yan curiously looked at Xun Er.

"Did you see the silver sword emblem with the clouds in the handcuffs of their robes?" Xun Er said with a light smile.

"Oh?" Xiao Yan looked towards the handcuffs of the three and indeed, there he clearly saw the sword embroidery symbol that glittered in the clouds!

"They're from the Misty Cloud Faction?" Xiao Yan asked in confusion.

Although Xiao Yan had never gone to the real world, he had read from books about this faction. The Xiao Yan clan lived in a city called Wu Tan City which was part of the Jia Ma Empire. Although this city was listed as one of the great cities in the Jia Ma Empire, it was still dwarfed by the size of the empire, despite having the Magic Mountain Monster Mountain Range behind it.

Within the city itself, the Xiao Yan clan was the largest. Other than the Xiao Clan, there were two other clans competing with the Xiao Clan, but even after 24 years of blood and strife, they were unable to overtake the Xiao clan …

If the Xiao Clan was the strongest power in Wu Tan City, then the Misty Clouds Faction would be the strongest power in the entire Jia Ma Empire! The difference between the Xiao Clan and the Misty Clouds Faction was huge, to the point where Xiao Yan's father, Xiao Zhan, was usually guarding a hard and hard face, very respectful in front of these guests.

"Why are they here?" Whisper Xiao Yan.

Xun Er's slender fingers stopped, “Maybe it is related to you, Brother Xiao Yan..”.

"I? But I have no relationship with them !? ”Hearing Xun Er's reply, Xiao Yan paused before shaking his head and whispering back.

"Do you know the girl's name there?" Xun Er glanced at the girl.

"No, right?" Xian Yan furrowed his brows as he examined the face of the girl that Xun Er had shown. He doesn't remember seeing her before.

"He's Nalan Yanran!" A curious expression floated on Xun Er's face.

"Hehe, grandfather and Nalan Jie were like bloody brothers and at that time, you and Nalan Yanran were born around the same time, so the two decided that you guys were going to get married. But, unfortunately, three years after you were born, grandfather died in a fight with the clan's enemies and as time went on, the Xiao Clan's relationship with the Nalan family became weaker, “Nalan Jie is not only arrogant, he also strongly emphasizes promises. The marriage was decided by her so even though your name has been very bad the past few years, she never thought of canceling the marriage … "

"The grandfather was really stubborn ..." Xiao Yan smiled.

"Nalan Jie had the final say in all matters in the family so even though she really liked her granddaughter a lot, no one in the family stepped up against the marriage …" Xun Er's beautiful eyes lightly glanced at Xiao Yan before continuing, “But 5 years ago, Nalan Yanran became a student under the leadership of the Misty Clouds faction. In these 5 years, Nalan Yanran showed incredible talent. When someone has enough power to change the course of their life, they will try their hardest to change the things that they do not like and unfortunately, they will not, he really hated his promised marriage to brother Xiao Yan! ”

"You mean ... that she came to cancel the wedding?"

Xiao Yan's face darkened. At this moment she was furious, not because Nalan Yanran did not want her as her husband but rather, because Nalan Yanran was trying to cancel the marriage with the entire clan present! If that happened then his father would lose a lot of his dignity and respect within the clan!

Xiao Yan slowly took a breath, the cold air calming his raging mind. Within his sleeves, Xiao Yan clenched his hands, thinking, if I were a Dou Shi, who would dare to trample on my pride?

That was true, if Xiao Yan was a Dou Shi, then, even if Nalan Yanran had the support of the Misty Clouds Faction, he would not be able to do such a thing. Dou Shi, 15 years old, there were only a few who had high achievements in the entire history of the Dou Qi Mainland. And the few people who were at that level when they were young were now some of the most influential people in the entire Dou Qi world.

A small, fragile hand cleverly dodged Xiao Yan's arm and held Xiao Yan's hand. Xun Er softly said, “Brother Xiao Yan, if he really cancels the wedding, then it is his own loss. I believe that in a few years, he will regret his decision today! ”

"Repent?" Xiao Yan sneered. “With my current ability, I do not have that kind of luxury. ”

Xiao Yan paused for a moment before changing his tone, “Wait, Xun Er. How are you so familiar with them? The things you just said, my dad probably doesn't even know some of them. How do you know all this? "

Xun Er stiffened but did not say anything.

Seeing Xue Er's avoidance on the subject, Xiao Yan could only smile helplessly. Although Xun Er was also part of the Xiao family, she and Xiao Yan had no blood relation. Moreover, Xiao Yan had never seen old man Xun Er and whenever he asked his father about them, Xiao Zhan would shake his head and not speak. Soon, Xun Er's parents became a taboo subject, something they seemed to be afraid to talk about.

To Xiao Yan, Xun Er's identity had always been shrouded in mystery. No matter how hard he tried, Xun Er would always remain silent.

"Ugh, whatever, if you don't want to say it then don't. 'Shaking his head, Xiao Yan's face suddenly darkened again. The guest elder, under the repeated signal of Nalan Yanran, finally stood up …

"Heh, using the Misty Clouds Faction to suppress father? This Nalan Yanran of course used some shameless tactics .. "Fury began to build up in Xiao Yan's heart.
