The sun rises and sets, and in the blink of an eye, seven days have passed since Xiao Yan left seclusion. Today's sky is exceptionally clear, without a trace of flocculation, as if all the colors have been filtered out, and it is a refreshing blue.
The Xiao Mansion was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. Each red lantern had a character "囍" on it, and every tree was hung with red and gold ribbons. Everyone's face was filled with joy.
In the inner palace, Zhen Ni asked Xiao Yan with a smile: "How are you? Are you satisfied with this new set of clothes that sister Xiao Qi and I specially prepared for you?"
You and Qier chose it specially, how dare I not be dissatisfied! Gently tugging at the noble red wedding robe with gold trim, Xiao Yan had a hint of bitterness on his lips, but to be honest, he is used to wearing black robes
, I’m really not used to being dressed like this now.”
Geez, you can't help me today. Zhen Ni and Xiao Qi looked at each other and smiled, and everyone also laughed.
Xiao Yan, who was looking a little embarrassed as everyone looked him up and down, suddenly frowned slightly and captured the movement from the wormhole with the power of his soul.
Brother, they are here, let’s go and greet them quickly.”
There was still some distance away from the wormhole connected to the Demon Emperor's Mansion, when five figures appeared in everyone's field of vision.
Qing Haoran walked in front holding the somewhat shy Qing Muer with his right hand.
Qing Mu'er was obviously dressed up carefully today. Her brows were lightly swept, her eyes were springy, her complexion was as smooth as warm jade, her small cherry mouth was as delicate as a drop of water, and the two strands of silk on her cheeks were gently blowing in the wind, adding a bit of seductive charm, making Xiao Xiao
Yan was dumbfounded.
Behind the two people, closely followed were three elders of the Blood Demon Yi Clan.
On the left is the second elder, on the right is the fourth elder in a blood-colored robe, and in the middle is an old man in red.
Isn't the old man in red in the middle the one who guards the gate of the Blood Demon Clan? He lives between the second elder and the fourth elder. Is his status more respected than the second elder and the fourth elder? Could it be that he is from the Blood Demon Clan?
Great Elder? Then why didn't he come to the meeting hall when he went to the Blood Demon Clan to deliver the Blood Demon Order? A trace of doubt flashed in Xiao Yan's heart.
But this was not the time for doubts. Xiao Yan was slightly surprised and quickly stepped forward with everyone to greet him with fists in his hands.
Xiao Yan is extremely honored that the eldest brother and the three elders came to the Xiao Mansion in person."
The old man in red and the second elder also clasped their fists in return and smiled like a spring breeze. Especially the old man in red looked at Xiao Yan and nodded frequently, seeming to be extremely satisfied with Xiao Yan.
But the fourth elder only nodded slightly, staring at Xiao Yan with a pair of eyes, and invisible pressure pressed against Xiao Yan like a mountain.
Although the two had met once, and the fourth elder was very polite to Xiao Yan at that time, and even had some appreciation for it, but that was because Xiao Yan had great kindness to the Blood Demon clan. Now, the four elders are
The happiness of Qing Muer's life, which the elders regard as their own granddaughter, depends on Xiao Yan. Therefore, even if Qing Haoran highly praises Xiao Yan, even if the fourth elder knows that Xiao Yan is very kind to the Blood Demon clan, but the kindness
Returning kindness, returning love, no matter how great the kindness is, it can't repay Qing Muer's happiness in her life. The fourth elder couldn't help but want to take a test against Xiao Yan.
Is this a test? Or do you think I'm not good enough for Mu'er, so you're trying to bully me? Xiao Yan was slightly startled, and a hint of displeasure flashed through his heart, but his face didn't show any emotion, and his eyes were fearless.
Looking at the four elders.
Is it possible that the fourth elder of the Eight-Star Dou Emperor is dissatisfied with Xiao Yan? After the ancient catastrophe, no one has broken through to the Dou Emperor continent of the Nine-Star Dou Emperor. He is a high-ranking and peak figure. Such a person can be found anywhere.
Everyone in a force has the absolute right to speak. If the fourth elder is dissatisfied with Xiao Yan and opposes the engagement between Xiao Yan and Qing Muer, it will be really troublesome. Everyone's joyful mood sank, and their hearts suddenly lifted.
Got up.
Fourth Grandpa! When Qing Muer saw Xiao Yan suddenly staring behind her with a solemn expression, she turned around and took a look. She immediately stamped her feet anxiously and called the Fourth Elder coquettishly.
Does this make you feel distressed? The fourth elder suddenly felt as if he had met his nemesis. He immediately turned his doting eyes on Xiao Yan to Qing Muer. The fourth grandpa just wanted to try you, the so-called first genius under five stars.
How real is your future husband, and whether he is worthy of our Mu'er."
Everyone was secretly relieved, and they couldn't help but feel happy: just because the fourth elder of the Eight-Star Dou Emperor dotes on Qing Mu'er so much, whoever dares to touch a hair of Xiao Yan in the future, he will...
You won’t just give up, right?
Xiao Yan didn't have the same thoughts as everyone else. He slowly looked back and had a cold war in his heart: The Eight-Star Dou Emperor is the Eight-Star Dou Emperor. Just looking at each other can make people feel timid. If I hadn't been determined, I'm afraid I wouldn't have done that just now.
You're going to make a fool of yourself in a moment."
So what do the fourth elders think now? Glancing at the silent Xiao Yan, Qing Muer was reluctant and asked the fourth elder angrily with her mouth pouted.
Mu'er actually asked an Eight-Star Dou Emperor for a satisfactory result in public for her own sake. Xiao Yan's heart felt warm, and his feelings for Qing Mu'er deepened.
The fourth elder smiled sheepishly and said: Just because he dares to look at me without showing timidity, I am very satisfied."
Xiao Yan's high-spirited heart finally relaxed, and any trace of dissatisfaction he had with the Fourth Elder disappeared as Qing Muer's happy smile bloomed.
Qing Haoran smiled hurriedly and turned slightly sideways, come on, let me introduce you to you."
After Yiyi finished introducing everyone, Qing Haoran couldn't help but tease Xiao Yan: How about it, Mu'er is beautiful today, isn't she?"
Mu'er was already beautiful, but she was even more gorgeous today. Xiao Yan answered truthfully, and a few blushes appeared on his face, which was rare for him to be shy.
Hearing Xiao Yan praising herself in public, Qing Muer immediately blushed with embarrassment, lowered her head and glanced at Xiao Yan secretly, without saying a word, her heart was filled with happiness.
If you have anything to say, go into the hall and say it. If the Demon Emperor and the three elders are allowed to stand here and talk, if word gets out, people may say that our Xiao Mansion has not treated guests well."
Seeing that Xiao Yan and Qing Muer were both a little embarrassed, Zhen Ni hurriedly led everyone to the hall of Xiao Mansion.
Taking a sip of the fragrant tea, Xiao Yan felt his throat was a little dry as he looked at Qing Mu'er, who was arranged to sit next to him.
, I tried several times but didn’t know how to speak, so I had to turn my eyes to Zhen Ni for help.
What a dull guy! Zhen Ni secretly hated Xiao Yan, so she had to lightly open her lips and say: "The Blood Demon Clan and the Xiao Mansion are like one family. Zhen Ni won't say any more polite words. Today we are
Let’s witness the engagement of Mr. Xiao and Miss Mu’er together, and wish them love each other and get married soon.”
Nodding slightly, the second elder put his hands on his hands and smiled and said: Xiao Yan has been very kind to our Blood Demon Yi Clan, and its potential is rare in the world. Over the years, he has given strong financial support to the development of our Blood Demon Yi Clan. He and Mu
It’s a blessing for our two families that our children can form a good marriage!”
The old man in red looked at Qing Mu'er dotingly, and smiled with some reluctance. I watched Mu'er grow up, just like my own biological great-granddaughter. I am very happy to be able to entrust her to Xiao Yan.
Satisfied and relieved.”
The fourth elder, holding the tea cup, shook his head and sighed: Alas, the marriage is a good one, but if Mu'er gets engaged, she will definitely stay in the Xiao Mansion often and not go back. I always feel a little reluctant in my heart. Then I said to
Xiao Yan glared and said in a stern tone, boy, although we are one family after you and Mu'er get engaged, if you dare to bully Mu'er, I will definitely skin you!"
How could I bear to bully her? Xiao Yan sneered, thinking that if she didn't bully me, I would be like Amitabha.
Qing Muer hurriedly put in a good word for Xiao Yan: Fourth Grandpa, don't worry, the little liar has always been very nice to me."
Alas, it’s really a bad idea for a girl to stay. She started to protect her husband even before they got married. Qing Haoran couldn’t help but joked, and Qing Muer was so embarrassed that she quickly lowered her head and held the corner of her clothes.
Everyone laughed.
The fourth elder's expression softened a lot, and he said to Xiao Yan: As long as you are good to Mu'er, if you need my help in the future, just come to me."
Everyone in the Xiao Mansion was overjoyed. With an Eight-Star Dou Emperor willing to stand up for Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan's future growth path would be much smoother. Zhen Ni hurriedly reminded Xiao Yan in a low voice: Thank you four elders quickly." To be continued.
