Chapter 267 Xin Lan's Dilemma
The Ye family originally had a prosperous life in the Dan Realm by virtue of their status as elders.
Subsequently, he lost his position as elder and soon fell into a precipitous decline.
If there is a chance, the entire family hopes to take back the position of elder.
But how easy is it?
The old man in green sighed, "Stop talking about that genius from your college all day long, this is the Dan Territory, this is Zhongzhou!
You have grown up here since childhood. Even if you have never seen a true talent, you have been exposed to it, and you understand to some extent that it is rare to have an eighth-level alchemist in his early twenties in a thousand years.
Xin Lan, stop dreaming and wake up! "
At the end of the sentence, the old man showed a sad expression and seriously suspected that Xin Lan had a mental problem.
He naturally knew about the rumors about Canaan College, otherwise he would not have arranged for Xinlan to go there to study.
But Xinlan said, is it possible that an eighth-grade alchemist in his early twenties can be produced in that kind of place?
Even in the Dan Domain, such talents are rare. In recent years, the only little witch from the Cao family has become famous in the Dan Domain. In addition to her own talent, there is also the teaching of a famous teacher behind her.
"I didn't lie! I, Xinlan, didn't lie!"
Xin Lan tried her best and shouted at everyone, why is no one willing to believe in herself?
Elder Lin is really amazing!
"Okay, even if you didn't lie, but what about the person you talked about? It's not far away from the Danta Conference, why hasn't he shown up yet? Do you have any means of contacting him?"
The old man in green asked.
"I...Elder Lin promised that he would come. Can you just wait a little longer?"
Xinlan's expression froze, and her tone became soft, with a hint of pleading.
However, in the eyes of everyone present, such a change only felt that Xin Lan was stalling for time, delaying her marriage to Cao Dan.
The old man in green shook his head and said, "Send Xin Lan back and keep an eye on her. Don't let her run around again."
The two people walked up to Xin Lan and made a gesture of invitation.
One of them said: "Miss Xinlan, please don't embarrass us."
Xin Lan lowered his head, knowing that his words had no effect.
Their thoughts were still the same, and they showed no intention of wavering.
Elder Lin...when will you come?
Da da!
At this moment, a burst of footsteps sounded inexplicably outside.
Everyone was startled, their eyes raised, and they looked in the direction of the sound.
The leader was a young man with a calm expression, his hands clasped behind his back, walking towards the meeting hall as if walking at home, looking around casually.
Behind him were an old man and a woman.
The three people seemed to appear suddenly, and the guards of the Ye family did not notice it.
"What are you..."
The old man in green frowned slightly, with a somewhat solemn look in his eyes.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by another voice.
"Elder Lin!!"
Xinlan raised her head suddenly, and when she saw Lin Xiu, her eyes burst with excitement, and her whole person became very excited.
Elder Lin?
Hearing Xin Lan's voice that contained surprise and excitement, everyone in the Ye family in the meeting hall was stunned for a moment, and then exchanged looks with each other.
Could it be that... the young man in front of me is the... eighth-grade... alchemist that Xin Lan mentioned? !
"It's not too late."
Lin Xiu smiled faintly, "How about it? It's been almost a year. You and your family have discussed it. What valuable things can you give me?"
"Great Elder, he is the person I told you can lead our Ye family to regain the position of elder, Elder Lin Xiulin."
Xin Lan looked at the old man in green at the head.
"You are so young, Xinlan, don't be deceived."
In the hall, an old man near the door glanced at Lin Xiu.
When his eyes met Lin Xiu's, he immediately lowered his head and rubbed his eyes with trembling hands.
I am a one-star Douzong, why would my eyes feel like they were being pricked by needles when I looked at him?
There was a hint of shock on the old man's face, but he lowered his head and did not let anyone else see him.
"Young man, do you understand the problem of my Ye family? The position of elder cannot be won by just talking. It requires real talent and strength."
The old man in green spoke slowly.
"Is this enough?"
Lin Xiu raised his right hand, and with a breath, a flame rose in his palm.
In the hall, the temperature suddenly rose.
The expressions of many people in the Ye family changed with shock, as they discovered that the flames in their bodies had been suppressed.
"Strange fire!"
The old man in green stood up and hurriedly took a few steps forward, "Are you really an alchemist?"
"What if it's fake? Do you need me to refine a pill in front of you to prove it?"
Lin Xiu had a smile on his face, but there was a hint of alienation in his tone.
I was asked to help, not begged to contribute.
If this family really dares to agree, I will turn around and leave decisively.
"There's no rush, there's no rush. This distinguished guest is here for the first time, so he must be tired."
The old man in green clothes immediately called for people to bring chairs and invited Lin Xiu and the others to sit down first. He and Lin Xiu started chatting while they served tea.
"My name is Ye Chong, and I am the current eldest elder of the Ye family. I heard from Xin Lan that you are a student of Canaan College and were promoted to elder after three years of enrollment. When I saw you today, you are really handsome and extraordinary."
The old man in green clothes talked and smiled.
"Mr. Ye is overly praised."
Lin Xiu put down the tea cup with a faint smile on his lips, "The situation of the Ye family was in Burning Flame Valley before. Xinlan had already told me that the position of Danta elder is not a problem for me.
But I also told her in advance that if she wanted me to attend the alchemy meeting in the name of the Ye family, she had to bring something that was enough to impress me. "
"Don't worry, Elder Lin. The Great Elder and I have already discussed this. As long as our Ye family can regain the position of elder, anything in the house that you like can be taken."
Xin Lan suddenly spoke while standing beside Lin Xiu. When he looked away, she immediately winked at the old man in green.
Seeing Lin Xiu looking at him, Ye Zhong hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Yes, Xin Lan did mention it before."
In the alchemy domain, without the position of elder, the family's status plummeted.
Now the strongest alchemist in the Ye family is only the seventh rank, and he is old. It is basically hopeless to regain the position of elder, and he can only rely on external forces.
"Elder Ye is so generous, I have no reason to refuse."
Lin Xiu smiled faintly.
"Mr. Lin will stay at the Ye family for the time being. If you have any specific needs, I will make a list for you to choose slowly. "
Ye Zhong smiled and arranged a resting place for Lin Xiu. After the three disappeared from his sight, he locked his eyes with Xin Lan.
"How can you say such a thing so casually, girl?"
"It's over now. That kid obviously took it seriously."
"He's just a good talker. He's so young. He can only have a good chance to have a strange fire. Alchemy... Alas."
The Ye family hall was full of discussions and became lively.
"Quiet!"
Ye Zhong slapped the table and looked at Xin Lan, "You have to give me a reason!"
"Great elder, believe in Elder Lin. He has never broken his promise. Besides, do you know who the woman next to him is?"
Xin Lan did not feel pressured by Ye Zhong's serious face. On the contrary, she became very relaxed after Lin Xiu agreed.
"Who?"
Ye Zhong frowned.
