Chapter 607 A Gentle Breeze Arrives, and Hu Lai's Arrival
"Enemy attack!" Luo Qian immediately stood up, and nine spirit rings appeared behind him.
With Luo Qian's loud shout, the elders also summoned their martial spirits and stared warily at the huge creature falling from the sky.
Luo Yan collapsed to the ground, staring in horror at the enormous creature before him. He had never seen anything like it before, and he instinctively crawled backward.
"Oh dear, I forgot to finish up the mess. I messed up your yard. Xiao Luo, I'm so sorry. If you want compensation, just ask Xiao for it!" Old Master Xuan strolled out of the dust, looked around with satisfaction, and was very pleased with his masterpiece.
"Why should I pay? You old drunkard, I'm even poorer than you!" Ye Nanxiao said with dissatisfaction.
His entire private stash of money probably doesn't even amount to a third of Xuan Lao's wealth.
"Who goes there!" Luo Qian shouted, his soul power surging, and dozens of thorny vines were poised to strike.
Ye Nanxiao and Elder Xuan, who were arguing, were drawn to the loud shout. Halfway through their argument, they both turned their heads to stare at Luo Qian.
In an instant, Luo Qian was struck dumb, his eyes widening as if they were eggs.
He seemed to see two ferocious beasts standing in front of him, staring at him menacingly.
Both Elder Xuan and Ye Nanxiao were quite displeased. Elder Xuan was upset because Ye Nanxiao had disrespected him and argued with him, while Ye Nanxiao was upset because his wallet was about to suffer another major blow.
"Yaoyao, introduce our distinguished guests to Grandpa. You all go back to your seats!" Luo Ya opened his eyes and said calmly.
All the elders of the Luo family, including Luo Qian, were forced back into their seats by a powerful soul force.
"Honored guest, this way please!" Luo Ya gestured to the seat on his right.
Ye Nanxiao and Elder Xuan glared at each other, then both snorted and sat down.
Luo Xinyao helped Shen Ciyuan out of Xingzhou No. 1 and bowed to Luo Ya, saying, "Luo Xinyao greets the Ancestor."
"Shen Ciyuan greets the Grand Ancestor of the Luo Family!"
Luo Ya narrowed his eyes, staring at Luo Xinyao's small hand holding Shen Ciyuan's.
An invisible pressure suddenly fell on Shen Ciyuan.
Shen Ciyuan grunted, his body tensed, and he stood straight in place.
Luo Xinyao also released her grip and took two steps back.
Luo Ya tapped the armrest lightly with his right fingers, and with each tap, the pressure on Shen Ciyuan increased.
Shen Ciyuan gritted his teeth and endured Luo Ya's oppressive aura.
"You brat, you actually know how to come back?" Luo Ya sneered, his right index finger slamming down heavily.
Shen Ciyuan suddenly felt the pressure on his body increase tenfold, his bones creaking under the strain, and a trickle of blood flowed down the corner of his mouth.
Ye Nanxiao sat to the side, brewing tea for himself, with a chicken leg bone floating above his head.
"Elder Xuan, I've noticed that people in our Douluo Continent seem to have a tradition of using pressure to test each other, right? Were Old Yan and Old Qian tested in the same way by Elder Mu before?" Ye Nanxiao asked curiously.
He discovered that basically every time he went to his girlfriend's house to meet her family, he had to go through this test of intimidation.
My future silly little brother will be like that too.
Is this the tradition of Douluo Continent? He'd better learn from it!
He's the kind of man who aspires to have a little girl in his life!
"Those two? They're not. I've been beating them since they were kids. Just being alive is enough for them. No need for further testing." Old Man Xuan laughed like a shrewd businessman.
Upon hearing this, Ye Nanxiao couldn't help but shudder. Sure enough, it was difficult for anything good to happen under Elder Xuan!
"You brat, still as stubborn as ever! What good is stubbornness! How long has my beloved granddaughter been waiting for you!" Seeing that Shen Ciyuan was about to collapse, Luo Ya waved his hand, withdrew his oppressive aura, and used his soul power to immobilize Shen Ciyuan.
"Grandpa Luo," Shen Ciyuan called out with some shame.
"Open your mouth!" Luo Ya's robes billowed as he tossed out a pale yellow pill.
Shen Ciyuan opened his mouth and swallowed the pill, and immediately a warm current surged through his body, nourishing his meridians.
"Get down here and pour tea for Yao Yao! If you don't take good care of Yao Yao, I'll hang you from a tree all day!" Luo Ya closed his eyes and snorted heavily through his nose.
Shen Ciyuan looked at the familiar old man before him, and it seemed that time had left several more marks on him, and his vision gradually blurred.
Suddenly, a pair of soft little hands took his big hand and pulled him into a warm embrace.
"Come sit down, there aren't enough chairs, I'll sit in your lap," Luo Xinyao said calmly.
Ye Nanxiao glanced at the few empty chairs next to him, silently took a sip of tea, and put all the chairs into his storage ring, cooperating with Luo Xinyao.
"I apologize for my lack of courtesy in visiting Elder Xuan so suddenly. I hope Elder Xuan will not take offense!" Luo Ya stood up and bowed slightly to Elder Xuan.
In terms of talent, Xuan Lao, that old monster, is definitely his senior.
"I just happened to be passing by and wanted to take a look. After all, young Shen is my student. You all go about your business. I'm just here to freeload!" Elder Xuan waved his hand and said.
"Alright, I'll have a lavish feast prepared for Elder Xuan later." After saying that, Luo Ya flicked his sleeve and tossed the slumped Luo Yan back onto the chair.
"You shameful thing! Sit down properly for me!" Luo Ya scolded.
When Luo Yan saw Luo Xinyao, his eyes were filled with resentment. After being flung away by Luo Ya, he quickly lowered his head to hide the resentment in his eyes.
But driven by intense resentment, he defied Luo Ya's pressure and declared, "Ancestor! I have brought back the future of the Luo family! Please allow me to finish demonstrating!"
"If we can reach a cooperation agreement with Yuheng Tower, my Luo family will be able to surpass the Shen family and firmly establish itself as the number one family in Tianhun!" Luo Yan said, sticking out his neck.
"Yaoyao, is the soul tool you brought back also from Yuheng Tower?" Luo Ya reached out and picked up the teacup next to him, taking a small sip.
"Indeed, this trip has been very pleasant in cooperation with Yuheng Tower. The tower master is a generous man. He has gifted the Luo family a level 8 charged laser cannon, five level 7 double-barreled rapid-fire machine guns, and thirty level 5 charged scout rifles. The remaining soul tools are all on the list. Please take a look, Grandpa." Luo Xinyao took out a small wooden box and a document from her bosom.
Luo Ya took it and asked, "Is it the soul tool that can be activated without a soul master?"
Upon hearing Luo Ya's question, Luo Yan's eyes widened immediately. What had he just heard?
Luo Xinyao also brought back a soul tool that does not require the soul master to operate it, and there is even an eighth-level soul tool among them.
What about the five million gold soul coins he spent?
Buying loneliness?
"Yes, Grandpa, I also invited the owner of Yuheng Tower!" Luo Xinyao said.
"Who? The Lord of the Tower is here too!" Luo Yan glanced around in a panic, her gaze landing on Ye Nanxiao.
The landing of Xingzhou-1 had kicked up a lot of dust, and with Ye Nanxiao wearing a straw hat, he really hadn't noticed Ye Nanxiao.
The latest novel is first published here!
Ye Nanxiao had already taken off his straw hat, revealing a square face with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
"A gentle breeze blows, greetings to the patriarch of the Luo family." Ye Nanxiao said, bowing slightly with his hands clasped together.
Luo Ya is an elderly person, so it is appropriate to pay respects.
"Xu Lai? Your surname is Xu?" Luo Ya's expression turned slightly somber, and he raised his left hand slightly.
He was a man who had experienced the war between the four kingdoms, and he almost instinctively associated people with the surname Xu with the Sun and Moon Empire.
An oppressive aura descended upon Ye Nanxiao instantly, but he remained unfazed, still smiling and standing in place.
"Elder Luo, a name is just a label and doesn't mean much. Besides, I'm just a businessman who has traveled all over the country and met many people," Ye Nanxiao said calmly.
"Really?" Luo Ya was puzzled. The surname Xu was a common surname among the Sun and Moon royal families. During the Three Kingdoms period, it was almost impossible to find anyone with the surname Xu.
"You're still so flustered. Don't worry, this kid has an innocent background, although he's a bit of a scoundrel," Elder Xuan said, dispelling Luo Ya's doubts.
Hearing Elder Xuan's assurance, Luo Ya put aside the last lingering doubt in his heart.
"Xu Lai, you are the master of Yuheng Tower? You are truly a promising young man." Luo Ya praised him lightly, in his perception, Ye Nanxiao's soul power fluctuations were only at the level of a Soul Emperor.
"Xu Lai is far inferior to Miss Luo and Young Master Shen, and doesn't deserve such praise," Ye Nanxiao said with a light laugh, then pulled Shen Ciyuan back into Luo Ya's sight.
Luo Ya glanced at Shen Ciyuan, who was sitting upright and not daring to move, shook his head slightly, and asked, "Then, let this old man broaden his horizons with the soul tools you brought us."
Ye Nanxiao waved his hand lightly, and five gun stands appeared on the floor of the hall, each holding a black firearm.
"Please ask Patriarch Luo to bring some common servants over so that he can experiment with them. I believe the results will convince you all."
Luo Ya looked at Luo Qian, who had no choice but to have his servants bring some household servants over with a sullen face.
Soon, five servants with no soul power cultivation were brought up.
Luo Qian personally walked up to the five people, had them pick up the five guns on the gun mounts, and had an elder hold up a soul power barrier in the courtyard to wait.
"Later, use all your strength to support the soul power barrier. We can't let the power of this soul tool be displayed. It would be best to suppress its attack. Do you understand what I mean?" Luo Qian said through telepathy using his soul power.
The elder who was called out turned to look at Luo Qian and nodded almost imperceptibly.
Luo Ya's attention was not on Luo Qian, but on Ye Nanxiao, and he did not notice Luo Qian's little tricks.
Luo Qian walked past Luo Yan and reached out to smooth out the wrinkles in his clothes. "Son, you must be patient. You can't let Luo Xinyao catch you in the slightest weakness in front of the Ancestor!"
Luo Yan gritted her teeth, clenched her fists, and her eyes were bloodshot. She nodded slightly when she heard Luo Qian's words.
Ye Nanxiao sat back down, picked up his tea, and looked ready to watch the show.
"Young Xiao, that old man's soul power cultivation is at the Soul Saint level. Can your stuff handle it?" Elder Xuan asked.
Ye Nanxiao winked at Elder Xuan and transmitted his voice, "Don't worry! A gentle breeze will come, and Hu Lai will come!"
Several servants held their scout rifles and aimed them at the elder in the courtyard, pulling the triggers.
A layer of pale purple light zigzagged across the gun's body, before a burst of light with a half-length tail flame quietly emerged.
Five rays of light, moving in a regular pattern, silently and swiftly landed on the soul power barrier erected by the elder of the Luo family.
"Silent as a muzzle, as expected of a spy's weapon, but its power is probably just so-so." Luo Qian shook his head slightly, a cold smile secretly appearing on his lips.
The next moment, the soul power barrier erected by the Luo family elder was forcibly twisted and shattered, and the Luo family elder was also violently blasted away.
