Chapter 44: Eliminate the poison, and be in love with her!
He sensed it briefly and found that the Dou Qi fluctuations in Xiao Ming had reached the level of an eight-star grand master. This surprised the elderly Lionheart Marshal and made him lament that he was getting old.
"Well, he is my...good friend!" Nalan Yanran thought for a moment and gave a slightly ambiguous answer.
"Is that so? Then what are you doing here?" Nalan Jie didn't say anything, but just asked with some confusion.
"Grandpa, the poison has broken out in you. Xiao Ming, my good friend, has come specially to help you get rid of the poison!" Nalan Yanran explained slowly.
"Oh, really, my friend, do you know how difficult the branding poison is? Even the King of Pills Gu He finds it difficult to deal with it?" Nalan Jie laughed and said.
"I know, but I am confident! Because I have this!"
As he spoke, a strange purple-black flame appeared at Xiao Ming's fingertips. As soon as the flame appeared, the temperature around it rose rapidly.
Even with Marshal Lionheart's powerful cultivation, he could feel the high temperature of the flame. Just sitting next to it, he felt a little hairy. Is this the legendary strange fire? It is indeed extraordinary!
Nalan Yanran's beautiful eyes flickered as she stared at the young man, wondering what she was thinking.
"Then I feel relieved!" Nalan Jie felt relieved.
Afterwards, Xiao Ming asked Nalan Jie to continue the action just now and sit cross-legged. He relied on the power of his soul to accurately grasp the accuracy and control the Three Thousand Flames to cover Nalan Jie's bones that were tainted by the branding poison.
"Zizizi! Zizizi!" As the Three Thousand Flames burned, black gas continued to emerge, and Nalan Jie's body began to slowly improve.
But even so, the terrible high temperature of the Three Thousand Flames made Nalan Jie groan in pain. The veins on his arms bulged, and Marshal Lionheart said with a trembling voice.
"Friend Xiao Ming, is it... okay now?"
Seeing Nalan Jie's look, Nalan Yanran, who had been watching all this happen, couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Seeing this, Nalan Jie's eyes widened in anger and he scolded him, which made the girl stop smiling.
"What are you laughing at, you little bitch? I haven't come to you to settle the score for you breaking off the engagement without permission!"
Seeing that Marshal Lionheart still had the energy to teach his granddaughter a lesson, Xiao Ming smirked. Not only did he not stop burning, but he slightly increased the temperature of the fire and continued to burn Nalan Jie's bones.
"Oh, I can't take it anymore, my friend. I really can't take it anymore. It's so hot. You'd better stop for a while. Otherwise, I will be burned to death by your strange fire before I die from the poison!"
Nalan Jie was anxious and spoke quickly.
Seeing this, Nalan Yanran also said hurriedly.
"Xiao Ming, stop, otherwise Grandpa's body really can't take it!"
At this time, Xiao Ming slowly retracted the Three Thousand Flames, allowing Nalan Jie to relax and lean back on the bed, feeling much more comfortable.
He glanced at Xiao Ming and said unhappily.
"My dear friend, you almost burned my old bones!"
Xiao Ming smiled and teased.
"How is that possible? You are Marshal Lionheart! This little fire can't do anything to you!"
However, the young man's flattery made Nalan Jie's face turn black. What the hell is this little fire? This kind of fire, let alone myself, even if a Douhuang strongman touches it head-on, I'm afraid it will be disastrous...
This kid wouldn't have any ideas about his granddaughter, right? Nalan Jie couldn't help but become suspicious.
While he was thinking, Xiao Ming looked at him calmly and said lightly.
"Okay, since Grandpa Nalan is not willing to solve it as soon as possible, we can only do it slowly. At this speed of detoxification, it can be solved in three days!" "That's indeed possible. Thank you very much. Whatever reward you want, just take it. As long as it's not too difficult, I won't refuse it!" Nalan Jie clasped his hands together and thanked him.
He is very knowledgeable about the ways of the world and would not think of getting something for free. Otherwise, even if he really has a relationship with Yanran, such neglect would alienate the two of them, which is not good!
Xiao Ming smiled faintly and said.
"I don't have any interest in anything from your Nalan family. If you have to say something, just blame Yanran less. After all, she is my friend, and I can't bear to see her scolded!"
It was useless for him to have the Seven Illusions Green Spirit Saliva. He didn't have anyone who needed help to restore soul power. As for improving soul power...
To be honest, it’s not that Xiao Ming looks down on their Nalan family. If there really were such rare treasures, they would have been robbed or traded away long ago.
Do you really think that Dan King Gu He and the Alchemist Guild President Fa Ma are all sand coins and can't even grasp such a treasure?
Therefore, Xiao Ming didn't think that there was anything precious in the Nalan family, so he naturally didn't care.
"Is that so? I understand. I won't blame that girl for this anymore!"
Nalan Jie nodded readily.
When Nalan Yanran heard this, her admiration for the young man grew even stronger.
Nalan Jie glanced at Xiao Ming and then spoke.
"My dear friend, please forgive me for being so rude. Your last name is Xiao. Could it be that you are from the Xiao family in Wutan City?"
Nalan Jie's words were full of speculation. Obviously, he was not sure. After all, Xiao Ming's talent was too high, and it was hard for him to believe that he could come from the small Xiao family.
Xiao Ming smiled and said.
"Yes, Xiao family of Wutan City, Xiao Ming!"
"It is as expected!" Nalan Jie's eyes were full of complexity and he couldn't tell what he felt.
Nalan Jie didn't say anything, just waved his hand and let the two leave. He wanted to rest. But before the two left, he called Nalan Yanran, as if he wanted to say something.
Xiao Ming didn't care about this and comfortably enjoyed the luxurious banquet prepared for him by the Nalan family.
Yes, even though Xiao Ming said he didn't want any reward, Nalan Su was not an idiot. He at least had to let him know the Nalan family's sincerity.
And at this moment, in Nalan Jie's room.
Nalan Yanran also looked at Nalan Jie with a puzzled look and asked.
"Grandpa, what's the matter?"
"Yanran, you refused the marriage with Xiao Yan, but chose Xiao Ming from the Xiao family. What do you mean by this?" Nalan Jie couldn't help but said with a sense of loss.
Nalan Yanran had something to say about this.
"Grandpa, don't talk nonsense. Xiao Ming and I are just good friends! As for breaking off the engagement with Xiao Yan? It's simple. I don't like arranged marriages, and I hate this person. He has a bad reputation and acts impulsively. That's why I broke off the engagement!"
"Oh, is that so? You really don't like him! Maybe Xiao Lin and I did something wrong back then! But if you really like that boy, I suggest you take action as soon as possible!" Nalan Jie sighed and reminded Nalan Yanran.
