Chapter 994: Chapter 991: Xun Er's Heartbreak, Xiao Yan's Fury_1
```
For Xun Er, these words were a huge blow.
Over the years, she knew that Xiao Yan had a fiancée he had never met, but she didn't care. Because she didn't think Xiao Yan was that kind of person.
But now…
In his eyes, was she inferior to his fiancée?
Xun Er looked at Xiao Yan, lost in thought, hardly able to believe it.
Was this still the Xiao Yan brother from before? Why did it feel like the person standing in front of her was a stranger? Even if he truly liked his fiancée a bit more, he shouldn't be so heartless toward her.
Could it be that everything in the past was fake?
Xun Er kept questioning herself, her heart aching.
Originally, she had thought as long as Xiao Yan was happy, she could pay any price. But now… her heart was wavering.
Was brother Xiao Yan really good to her?
Did brother Xiao Yan still have another woman on his mind?
"Yes!"
"Of course."
"Although you have decent talent, at best you can only make a name for yourself in Wu Tan City. Nalan Yanran, however, is Heaven's Proud Daughter of Yunlan Sect. Moreover, now that she has been taken as a disciple by the Sect Master of Yunlan Sect, Yun Yun, in the entire Jia Ma Empire, Nalan Yanran can absolutely be called the ultimate Heaven's Proud Daughter." Xiao Yan said earnestly, picturing Nalan Yanran in his mind, his heart inevitably filled with admiration.
Seeing the hurt look on Xun Er's face, he felt some heartache. But the furious him could hardly manage that much.
Especially after Xu Ran had humiliated him!
The feeling of that slap on his face was really unbearable.
Pain could be endured, but shame could never be wiped away!
Unless he stepped on Xu Ran and killed him, there was no way he could forget this day!
"Is this your choice?"
"Xun Er understands."
Xun Er hung her head low, gazing at her beautiful legs, her emotions extremely downcast, tears dripping down from the corners of her eyes.
Her long eyelashes were adorned with tear drops, and the twin trails of tears made Xun Er look all the more frail and pitiable.
Who would have the heart to be harsh to such a girl?
Except for the overly confident Xiao Yan, no one else would.
After all, Xun Er was a miss of the Gu Clan, with an esteemed status. With a mere wave of her hand, the Xiao Family could be razed to the ground. Any randomly selected member of the Gu Clan would be enough to exterminate the Xiao Family. Such was the power of the Gu Clan.
Within the Gu Clan, only a Dou Zun Expert could dominate among the younger generation!
As the young lady of such an ancient power, Xun Er, upon arriving at the Xiao Family, did not look down on anyone despite the strength of her own clan. She was courteous to these beings whom other powerful people considered ants, and she didn't care about Xiao Yan's "Cultivation Level".
Xiao Yan's "Cultivation Level" had not improved over the years and had even regressed.
In the eyes of others, Xiao Yan had no future.
But Xun Er had always been behind Xiao Yan, encouraging him.
Where else could one find such a girl?
The most perfect thing about Xun Er was just this. She was born noble yet did not disdain the low "Cultivation Level" of Xiao Yan. Throughout the times Xiao Yan's "Cultivation Level" kept falling, Xun Er did not know if there would be a day when Xiao Yan would rise again. But even so, she never distanced herself from him because of the regress in his "Cultivation Level".
This was the preciousness of Xun Er.
It was precisely this that made Xu Ran genuinely cherish Xun Er from the bottom of his heart.
Such a girl, uninterested in fame and fortune, truly embodied what it meant to stick by her husband, for better or worse. In Xun Er's heart, Xiao Yan was the best, whether powerful or not.
Distance tests a horse's strength; time reveals a person's character.
```
This is precisely why Xun Er was so endearing in the original work. Xun Er's character was so flawless, that even Yun Yun and Medusa couldn't compare. Although it was regrettable for Yun Yun, as the Sect Master of Yunlan Sect, it was impossible for her to be with Xiao Yan after he became the sect's enemy. Even if there were feelings involved, it wouldn't work, because Yun Yun couldn't overcome the hurdle in her heart. In Yun Yun's heart, Xiao Yan was indeed important, but he could not occupy all of it; the sect was undoubtedly important to her as well.
"Xun Er, I didn't mean that, I..." After venting the anger in his heart and seeing Xun Er in tears, Xiao Yan's heart softened, and he wanted to explain.
Although his fiancée was very important, Xun Er was equally irreplaceable.
He had already thought that he wanted them both.
"Brother Xiao Yan, don't say anymore, I understand everything." Xun Er interrupted Xiao Yan's next words, lifting her tear-blurred eyes to look at him.
"This Elixir is the Green King Pill that I begged from Xu Ran for you. Swallow it and absorb it," Xun Er said as she took out the Green King Pill and handed it to Xiao Yan.
No matter what, she just wanted Brother Xiao Yan to be okay.
As long as he swallowed this Elixir, his body would be healed.
"An Elixir refined by Xu Ran?"
"The Green King Pill?"
Listening to Xun Er's mention of the name of the Elixir, Xiao Yan's face turned green.
This damn Green King Pill? Why does it sound so odd?
And why is this Elixir so green?
How could a normal Elixir look like this?
"Xu Ran! Xun Er! You're going too far!" Xiao Yan's face reddened with anger as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
So infuriating!
It was utterly exasperating!
This Elixir was obviously a prank!
And with such a suggestively named Elixir, if he still didn't understand the implication, then he didn't deserve to be called Xiao Yan!
After all, he was a transmigrator! How could he, so experienced and knowledgeable, not understand the message Xu Ran was trying to convey??
And Xun Er was presenting him with this Elixir so seriously?
If he swallowed this Elixir, even if his "Cultivation Level" were truly restored, it would be a huge embarrassment!
If a person gives up their pride, what's the use of a strong "Cultivation Level"?
"Pfft!"
Xiao Yan couldn't help but spit out another mouthful of blood, his breath weakening.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. That bastard Xu Ran was too humiliating. Even if he really was giving out an Elixir, why would he choose such a name? Xu Ran made the Elixir so he could name it whatever he wanted, but he had to choose that name.
If this time it was an Elixir, what about next time? A hat?
Such a disgrace!
Xiao Yan, a proud man of seven feet, how could he accept such an Elixir?
Even if it were a miracle medicine, he, Xiao Yan, wouldn't care for it!
Xiao Yan had his pride!
"Brother Xiao Yan, what's wrong? Why are you vomiting blood?" Xun Er obviously didn't know what Xiao Yan was thinking and seeing him spit blood worried her, not minding that her heart had just been hurt by him.
"Go away, just go away!"
"Are you here to humiliate me again? Hahaha? I see through it now, you've been pretending these last few days, deliberately conspiring with Xu Ran to humiliate me!" Xiao Yan roared, completely losing his sanity at that moment.
The innocent Xun Er in front of him, holding that endlessly mocking Elixir, was like a great ridicule directed at him.
And the previous scenes seemed all the more like a conspiracy between Xun Er and Xu Ran.
Xun Er's jealousy over Xiao Mei before was real. Everything that followed was also real, an effort by Xun Er to show her loyalty in front of Xu Ran.
