In the end, Xiao Yan helplessly withdrew his Spiritual Strength from the ring. At the same time, he also took out the name card. That could be considered the most useful and also the most useless thing that Xiao Yan had obtained this time.
Although he had found the Fusang Flower, it might not be his in the end. Although he knew its location, he could not touch it. It was likely that there was nothing more unbearable than this.
However, having news was better than nothing. Everything was still early. No one knew who the Fusang Flower would belong to until the very last moment.
With the little hope in his heart, Xiao Yan inhaled a deep breath and smiled slightly. Immediately, his body moved, leaped off the bed, and walked out of the door.
Since Xiao Yan's matter was temporarily over, there was no need to rush to the Ancient Tomb of Tian Jue. There was no harm in going to Jinyao City to give it a try. After all, it was a place where the experts of the Western Region gathered. Regardless of whether it was for Xiao Yan's own experience or strength, it would more or less be of some help. He would naturally not easily miss it.
After exiting the door, Xiao Yan had just closed the door and turned around. However, in the next moment, his body suddenly jumped and he involuntarily took half a step back. He raised his eyes and saw that Fang Ruyan was standing in front of him.
Until just now, Xiao Yan had been wholeheartedly thinking about the Fusang Flower and did not notice that there was actually someone outside the door. The sudden appearance of the young lady had almost caused Xiao Yan to activate the Dou Qi in his body. Once that happened, Xiao Yan could not help but be a little worried about the consequences.
When Fang Ruyan saw that Xiao Yan was startled, a panicked expression involuntarily surged onto her face. She was just about to open her mouth to inquire when Xiao Yan's gaze shot over, causing her to involuntarily lower her head.
At the same time, Xiao Yan also recovered from the fright from the previous moment. He helplessly curled his lips and his heart palpitated as he swept his gaze over the slightly rising and falling chest of the young lady. At such a close distance, Xiao Yan was just a little taller than Xiao Yan. Hence, the moment Xiao Yan raised his head, the young lady's chest was completely reflected in Xiao Yan's eyes.
Immediately, Xiao Yan's old face could not help but turn red. He habitually rubbed his nose with his hand and coughed twice. Only then did Xiao Yan ask.
"Miss Fang, is there something that you are looking for me?"
"Ruyan does not dare. It is my father who asked me to invite you to attend a family banquet in our family."
Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Fang Ruyan hurriedly and respectfully bowed. The words from her mouth appeared to be unusually respectful.
If it was before Xiao Yan killed those few elite Dou Di, Fang Ruyan would still dare to be angry with him. Now that she had witnessed Xiao Yan's strength, she would definitely not dare to mess around with Xiao Yan even if she was given a lot of courage. Otherwise, once the latter was angered, it was likely that she would not be the only one to suffer a calamity!
"Oh? A family banquet huh. It seems a little illogical for me to attend such a banquet. "
Xiao Yan frowned slightly. A family banquet was a banquet that only members of the same family could attend. This kind of banquet was especially valued within a family. Anyone who was not from the family would not be allowed to attend, much less be invited. What was the purpose of Fang Cheng's actions?
"Sir, there is no need to be so polite. You have saved our entire Fang family. Father and the few Elders have long treated you as one of our family. Moreover, my father has also said that if Sir Xiao Yan is not present today, the family banquet will definitely not begin."
Appearing to be afraid that Xiao Yan would reject, Fang Ruyan said quite a bit in one breath. These words caused Xiao Yan to be somewhat speechless. Putting it this way, he did not even have a reason to reject. It seemed that this family banquet was not prepared for the members of the Fang family. Instead, it was a Hongmen banquet for him!
Thinking of this in his heart, a glint immediately flashed across Xiao Yan's eyes. However, he parted his mouth and smiled immediately.
"Alright then. Since the head of the Fang family has invited me so graciously, it would be somewhat impolite if I did not go. Let's go."
Xiao Yan laughed out loud. His body moved. Under the guidance of his Spiritual Strength, he took the lead and walked toward the place where everyone from the Fang family was gathered. Fang Ruyan followed behind him.
"That's right …"
Just as he took his first step, before his second step landed, Xiao Yan suddenly turned around. This gave the young lady behind him a fright. She took two steps back. Then, Xiao Yan smiled and said:
"It's better if you don't call me Lord. It's quite awkward to hear you call me that. Just call me by my name."
After speaking, without waiting for the young lady to regain her senses, Xiao Yan took the lead and quickly walked toward the place where the members of the Fang family were gathered. Behind him, the young lady's cheeks were red as she muttered Xiao Yan's name. Then, she hurriedly followed behind.
After a short period of time, Xiao Yan and Fang Ruyan arrived at the place where the members of the Fang family were gathered.
This was the usual drill ground of the Fang family. However, today, it was the place where the family banquet was held.
When everyone present saw the late Xiao Yan, everyone immediately stood up and faced Xiao Yan. Even Fang Cheng and the elders of the Fang family at the front of the crowd stood up and faced Xiao Yan. Then, everyone respectfully greeted Xiao Yan in unison.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan's heart could not help but be shocked. The actions of these people really made him feel overwhelmed.
After returning the greetings one by one, Xiao Yan took large strides forward with Fang Ruyan behind him. Together, they arrived at Fang Cheng's side. At this place, seats had already been prepared for the two of them. They just so happened to be on the left and right of Fang Cheng. After Xiao Yan sat down, the one on the left was Yuan Qing. It was only after Xiao Yan sat down that the other people present also took their seats one after another.
"Haha, Sir Xiao Yan, this banquet should have been prepared long ago. However, Sir Xiao Yan has been in seclusion for half a month. We were also afraid of disturbing Sir, so we never started. Now that Sir Xiao Yan has arrived, we can be considered to be all present. Haha."
Sitting beside Xiao Yan, Fang Cheng smiled as he faced Xiao Yan. At the same time, he raised his wine cup and faced Xiao Yan and downed it in a single gulp as an apology. After that, Yuan Qing and the few elders of the Fang family, and even Fang Ruyan, were unable to avoid it.
Very quickly, Xiao Yan and the few people beside him began to chat together. This was especially true for Fang Cheng. His three sentences did not leave Xiao Yan, while his two sentences were like that of Ruyan. His words always jumped between Xiao Yan and Ruyan, causing one to not know if he was truly drunk or if he was doing it on purpose.
Xiao Yan's heart was filled with suspicion as he listened. During this time, he continuously frowned and his gaze would occasionally look towards Yuan Qing. Seeing this, the latter awkwardly smiled but did not say anything.
At this moment, even Fang Ruyan's pretty face had turned completely red from what Xiao Yan had said. It was unknown whether it was because she had drunk wine or because of some other reason. However, the pair of pretty eyes which she used to look at Xiao Yan involuntarily revealed an autumn feeling.
