Xiao Yan staggered a few steps after being hit, and only then did he barely stabilize his body, but he simply did not fall this time.

He raised his hand to wipe the red blood from the corner of his mouth, turned around with some difficulty, looked at her in a long skirt, standing lightly, and did not rush forward in a hurry.

Looking at her silently for a long time, Xiao Yan's eyes were full of bitterness, the gap between the two sides in cultivation was too big, and he didn't have any tricks to press the bottom of the box.

The two defeats have shown that it is not a fluke that the other party can beat him, and his defeat is also not bad luck, but really inferior skills......

Looking at the figure standing with a sword, he pursed his lips and finally spoke:

"This time...... It's me who lost. ”

Nalan Yanran brushed the green silk that was blown by the wind in front of her forehead, and didn't say anything.

Today's battle was inexplicable and confusing to her - she never felt that she had ever made a mistake in withdrawing from the marriage.

She came here today just to inquire about the master's news. Now that the scroll was in hand, and the man was not pestering her, she didn't say anything, nodded at me, turned and walked out of the courtyard.

"Three years!"

The person's voice suddenly sounded behind her, a little hoarse, a little low, she didn't turn around, just subconsciously stopped, wanting to hear what he said.

Xiao Yan looked at the figure with his back to him, his right hand clenched, and he didn't realize that his nails were digging into the flesh.

He hung his head, I couldn't see his face clearly, I didn't know what was going on in his mind, but it was probably uncomfortable.

He challenged himself, but failed miserably twice......

"I'm going to Canaan Academy to cultivate......"

He raised his head suddenly, his face tensed, his slightly immature face was full of determination, and he said in a deep voice:

"In three years' time, we'll compete again—when the time comes, I'll beat you!"

Nalan Yanran was silent for a while, and finally turned around, bowed slightly, and said, "I accept your challenge, I hope you will be strong enough by then......"

"Today's sparring was boring."

With that, she turned and walked out of the courtyard, and her figure disappeared into the pavilion.

In the courtyard, there was some silence. Xiao Yu, who rarely stood with Xiao Yan, looked at him with disgust on his face.

Xiao Mei'er and Qing Yan were a little in a low mood, but Xun'er moved lightly, walked to Xiao Yan's side, opened her mouth, and suddenly smiled, and said:

"Brother Xiao Yan, I believe in you!"

Xiao Yan was shocked and looked at the girl blankly. In front of her, the resoluteness on his face suddenly dissipated, and he said bitterly:

"Now mine, where is the face for you to call it that"

"Brother Xiao Yan, you once told Xun'er before, you have to be able to put it down, so that you can pick it up, lift it and put it freely, you are a comfortable person!"

Xiao Xun'er said with a smile, her slightly immature voice was heartwarming. She clenched her little white fist again, and said loudly:

"It's just a loss, Brother Xiao Yan, you used to cultivate as a regression, but now you have survived."

"You can survive this catastrophe, and now you have a small defeat, how can you retreat!"

Xiao Yan's eyes lit up, a lazy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he nodded and said, "Well, Xun'er, I will definitely defeat her!" ”

Xun'er tilted her head and chuckled, "It seems that Brother Xiao Yan will have a hard time when he arrives at Canaan Academy......

After the big battle, no matter whether you win or lose, there is always someone by your side. If you win, she will be happy with you; If you fail, she will comfort and encourage you - if life can be like this, probably there will be no regrets.

I stood on the edge of the stairs and looked at them, and quietly took Xiao Mei'er's hand. She was slightly startled, but didn't struggle, and lowered her head to look at the floor.

I smiled lightly, turned my head to look at Xiao Yu, winked at her, and said:

"Sister Xiao Yu, let's go out and walk around the street together"

She didn't refuse, I took Mei'er by the hand, she walked on my side, Qinglu followed, and the four of them silently went out of the courtyard, leaving this place for the people who should stay.

"Where does Sister Xiao Yu want to play?"

"Where is the best place to play in Garma City"

"Gama City is fun everywhere."

After a question-and-answer like nonsense, she raised her eyebrows and said, "I heard that the Mitre auction house in Garma City is the most lively, let's go over and have a look." ”

I nodded, remembering that more than a year ago, I accompanied Nalan Yanran to the Mitre Auction House, but I ran into a thief on the road, and I couldn't help but call a team of guards to accompany me.

But I didn't call Mo Forget - he is a talent after all, and he is still a city lord, so he can't really be called as a guard.

It's better to leave him in the mansion to rest, and now that the war is about to start, he has a lot of use.

When the group left the mansion, the street in front of the mansion was deserted, and it became lively after crossing two streets.

The streets were full of people and traffic, and there were constant shouts along the way. There are those who sell snacks, some sell small objects, and all kinds of juggling, and the three girls are dazzled for a while.

Gama City is the capital of the country, gathering things from all walks of life, and it is far from being comparable to the isolated Utan City and the Stone Desert City.

And although Xiao Yu had been to Canaan Academy, he was busy on the road, and there was no place to play when he arrived in the Black Corner Domain, and he was as crazy as Xiao Meier and Qing Liang at this time.

Holding a handful of snacks in his hand, he bought a lot of delicate or beautiful small objects. He also came to a juggler and looked at it with interest, and when he saw the rise, he scattered a few gold coins, and laughed:

"Technical work, be rewarded!"

The currency of the Gama Empire is naturally not only gold coins, but also silver coins and copper coins below, and at this time, Xiao Yu scattered a few gold coins, which immediately caused a commotion.

These gold coins are enough for ordinary people to live for two or three months. The juggler hurriedly stopped, thanked her with a thousand thanks, but made her a little embarrassed, and hurriedly dragged us away.

"Sister Xiao Yu, no one is chasing you, you can stop."

People came and went on the streets, and Xiao Yu ran around for a while, not knowing how much turmoil it caused. I stopped and called out to her, and then I bowed to a shop on the side of the street, and said:

"Let's go to that shop."

A few people took a look, but saw that the shop was not big, but the style was antique. When I got closer, there was a faint fragrance.

Looking up, I saw three gilt characters written on the plaque of the store, one stroke at a time, upright.

"Chan Kum Kee"

Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows and asked, "I seem to have heard of it somewhere, what is this for?"

Xiao Meier's face was a little crimson, she glanced at me, then looked at Xiao Yu, and said with some excitement:

"Sister Xiao Yu, here is a place to sell rouge gouache, the most famous, I have heard of Chen Kum Kee's name in Utan City!"

The group walked towards the store, Mei'er was the happiest, pulling the green scales and walking in front.

Xiao Yu was not very interested, walked behind side by side with me with his chest hugged, glanced at me, and said quietly:

"Xiao Yezi, I can't see it, you guy is so careful, and you will bring girls to buy these little things."
