Chapter 62: Chapter 62: The Nalan Family's Way of Survival



  The Nalan Family.

  The black-faced Dou Wang leaned against the bedside. After three years of torture by the brand poison, the once sturdy and powerful Nalan Jie has now become skinny, with deep sunken eye sockets, looking as if he could die at any time.

  Family members know their own affairs. Nalan Jie is very clear about his own condition. If it weren't for the Dou Wang's strength, various elixirs, and the occasional pharmacists, he would have collapsed long ago.

  But even so, he also knew that the brand poison was gradually entering his bones, and the effect of these methods would only get worse and worse. He could only hold on for about five years at most.

  And once he fell, the huge Nalan Family would inevitably be in a worse situation.

  Fortunately, there is still Nalan Yanran. When the other party grows up, the Nalan Family should have a chance to return to the ranks of the three major families.

  "How is Yanran now?"

  Nalan Jie asked his son who was not very capable in front of the bed with complicated thoughts.

  I don't know what my father thinks. When he heard Nalan Yanran mentioned, Nalan Su smiled with a hint of pride.

  "Father, I received a message from Yanran the day before yesterday. It's been quite a while since she broke through the ninth stage of Dou Qi. Now she just needs to polish her foundation. She should be able to be promoted to Dou Zhe within half a year."

  "Not bad."

  Nalan Yanran is now in her early thirteens, and she won't be fourteen in half a year. With the support of the Nalan family and Yun Yun's teaching, it shouldn't be difficult for her to surpass him in the future. I just don't know how many years it will take.

  Suddenly, he thought of another person.

  "How is Xiao Yan, the one the Xiao family has an engagement with Yanran, now? Has his physical problem been solved?"

  "No, he's still at the third stage of Dou Qi. He's now a well-known waste over there. How high he stood before, how pitiful he is now. Father, do we really want Yanran to fall into this fire pit? What about the engagement?"

  When it comes to the engagement, Nalan Su couldn't help frowning.

  At this moment, he completely forgot how happy he was when he heard that Xiao Yan was a Dou Zhe at the age of eleven more than two years ago.

  Nalan Jie frowned slightly, but finally shook his head and didn't continue the topic.

  He knew that the father and daughter were now dissatisfied with the engagement, especially Nalan Yanran, whose resistance was getting stronger and stronger.

  But this was decided by him and Xiao Lin. Now he couldn't despise others just because they turned from geniuses into trash. Although he had some thoughts in his heart, he cared more about his face and didn't want to be pointed at by others.

  "Forget it, let's not talk about this. Did you go to the palace again today?"

  "I went, but didn't see anyone. That kid relied on the favor of the royal family and was very arrogant. He didn't take our Nalan family seriously at all." Nalan Su said angrily.

  With his status, he visited a junior three times and didn't see anyone. He was very resentful. Liu Bei invited Wolong to his thatched cottage three times.

  Well, although there is no Uncle Liu and Wolong here, the meaning is the same.

  Nalan Jie also frowned. The difference is that he was more disappointed with his son in front of him than with the young man he had never met.

  "Don't say such things in the future. A great Dou Master in his teens is always a guest of honor wherever he goes. Before Yun Yun entered the Gate of Life and Death, her cultivation speed was not as fast as his. In the future of the Jia Ma Empire, the person who has the greatest hope of breaking through the Dou Zong is not the royal family, nor the two from the Yun Lan Sect and the Alchemist Guild. He is the one with the greatest hope." "

  If you really have any ideas, just keep them in your heart. Also, we have been too close to the Yun Lan Sect in the past few years. We should keep a proper distance in the future. You should pay attention to this aspect."

  Nalan Su responded with a sullen face, "I understand."

  Kun eggs cannot be put in a cage, and you should always leave yourself a way out. In this regard, Nalan Su has learned the true teachings from his father.

  He has been doing this for many years, but because of Nalan Yanran and the development speed of the Yun Lan Sect in the past few years, it has gone too far. Now that the royal family has a genius who is close to a demon, the position of the Nalan family must be shaken back.

  The father and son were chatting when the voice of a servant suddenly came from outside the door.

  "Master, Mr. Chen is visiting."   

  Nalan Su frowned and stood up to open the door, "Which young master Chen?"

  "Go to the master, he said he came from the palace, I dare not neglect it."

  The palace, the surname Chen?

  Nalan Su reacted, turned around and looked at the black-faced Dou Wang, and saw his father nod and quickly became serious, adjusted his expression and closed the door.

  "You are blind, you dare to let Young Master Chen wait when he arrives, and why don't you invite him in?"

  "Master, I have already invited Young Master Chen to the secondary living room."

  "You dare to talk back, please go to the main living room, forget it, I will go there myself."

  Nalan Su cursed, but fortunately his brain was clear for once. Now changing to the main living room, wouldn't it tell others that they didn't take it seriously before?

  Secondary living room.

  Chen Guan looked at the low-key decoration in the house, but he didn't have too many thoughts in his mind. He had never been to the Nalan family before.

  He didn't let him wait too long. Soon, hurried footsteps came from outside. When he turned around, Nalan Su had already walked in with a big laugh.

  "Haha, sorry to have kept Master Chen waiting for a long time. I heard from the servants that you were visiting the Nalan family. I couldn't believe it for a moment. I'm sorry for not welcoming

  you in person. I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person." "Master Nalan is too polite. Chen Guan is a junior. How can I let you welcome me in person? I missed you twice before, and I felt very sorry. Today, after the training, I heard from the little princess that you went there again. It's reasonable for me to come and say sorry."

  Chen Guan stood up to return the greeting and was also looking at this fence-sitter.

  To be honest, in his heart, Chen Guan didn't have much good feelings for the Nalan family that jumped back and forth. This was the case with the royal family in the original trajectory, and it was also the same with Xiao Yan.

  However, he said what he wanted to say to people, and what he wanted to say to ghosts. There was no conflict between the Nalan family and him now, and Chen Guan didn't mind pulling with him.

  Hearing the young man's humble words, Nalan Su's resentment in his heart was reduced a little. He immediately greeted him warmly, and asked someone to bring tea while smearing honey on his lips.

  After meeting Nalan Su today, Chen Guan realized that there are so many good words to describe a person. He is really ignorant.

  He originally planned to brag about business with him for three minutes, but he ended up praising each other for five minutes without realizing it. He kept calling him nephew and uncle. I thought they had a very good relationship.

  After the business praise session ended, Chen Guan talked about business.

  "Uncle Nalan, I came to visit you today. First, I want to apologize to you, and second, I want to ask you what you want to see me for, so as to avoid you having to run around."

  Nalan Su did not answer directly immediately, but sighed and told him about his father and his current situation.

  Chen Guan asked with concern: "If it is poison, didn't uncle invite a pharmacist to take a look?"

  "Of course I did. I have invited some pharmacists to treat the imperial capital and several nearby cities, including President Fama. I also invited him privately last year, but they couldn't eradicate it. The best they could do was to alleviate the symptoms slightly. Some time ago, I borrowed the relationship with the Yunlan Sect and spent a lot of money to invite even the Dan King Gu He, but even he was powerless."

  "However, Gu He did provide a plan. If there is a strange fire, perhaps the brand poison can be eradicated. But where can we find an alchemist with a strange fire in the entire Jia Ma Empire? I can only try my best to inquire." "

  It was an accident. Just when I was about to give up, I happened to hear two alchemists discussing in the city that day, saying that the genius of the royal family might have a strange fire. When I heard that, I thought, is there anyone more talented than my nephew?" "Although

  the possibility is not high, for the sake of my father, I still don't want to miss any opportunity, so I want to ask my nephew."

  Nalan Su sighed.

  Obviously, he was just a blind cat that caught a dead mouse, but it was not the blind cat that moved, but the dead mouse that was delivered to his mouth.

  Chen Guan showed a look of surprise.

  He laughed and said, "That's really a coincidence."
