Chapter 962: Hometown Old Friends
"Hai Bodong?"
Nalan Su was also somewhat surprised when he saw Hai Bodong.
As an old friend who had lived in the imperial capital for decades, Nalan Su naturally would not forget him.
It was just a little surprising that the person who came from the Mitel family this time was him. He thought they were just sending someone to go through the process.
With curiosity in his heart, Nalan Su walked towards the white-haired man who led a graceful woman.
"Hai Lao, it's been a long time since I saw you. Your cultivation has improved."
Seeing that the man in front of him was almost able to touch the cultivation of Dou Zun, Nalan Su couldn't help but laugh.
"You're polite. In front of the current Nalan family master, it's nothing."
Although Nalan Su in front of him was already a high-level Dou Sheng, Hai Bodong didn't have any fear in his eyes. He just nodded calmly and then said a few polite words to him.
But this praise was inevitably a bit harsh to Nalan Su.
Although he knew that Hai Bodong had no other intentions, such compliments also made Nalan Su unhappy.
But Nalan Su would not bother Hai Bodong for these things.
This was not because Nalan Su was generous, but simply because the Mitel family was also not easy to deal with.
As the earliest force to invest in Xiao Yan and the Xiao family in the past, and even helped the Xiao family return to the imperial capital, these two things alone had already deeply bound the Milt family and the Xiao family together. There were even countless young generations of the two families who intermarried with each other, and they could also get the blessing of the Doudi bloodline in the future.
Not only that, the Mitel family has almost completely become the Xiao family's external talker, and its status is so high that no one dares to provoke it in the northwest continent.
In contrast, although the Nalan family was lucky enough to become a Doudi family, it was very embarrassing.
Without sufficient foundation, it is impossible to rely on the skills to transform its own cultivation. The most fatal thing is that the Doudi of its own family doesn't like the Nalan family very much. What should it do?
Thinking of this, Nalan Su naturally had no mood to continue chatting with Hai Bodong. After that, he just exchanged a few polite words and went to receive other guests.
Seeing Nalan Su leave, the graceful woman beside Hai Bodong, who had become more mature, couldn't help but say: "What do you think, Hai Lao?"
"What can I think?"
Hai Bodong couldn't help but shake his head: "My family committed a sin at the beginning, and others couldn't help even if they wanted to, so why should we join in the fun?"
"So, the rumor is true?"
The beauty beside him raised her beautiful eyebrows slightly, a little surprised, after all, she really hadn't heard of a situation where a Dou Di didn't like her family.
But if that's the case, the status of the Nalan family is embarrassing.
The ambition of the Nalan family is naturally unwilling to be an ordinary Dou Sheng family, or a Dou Wang family in the imperial capital.
But if they want to go further, the Nalan family can't go up and is stuck there.
"Who can tell what's going on in their family?"
Hai Bodong shook his head. Although the Mitel family didn't have the title of Doudi family, it had already been tied to the Xiao family. As long as Emperor Yan was still alive, the Xiao family would naturally continue to prosper.
Moreover, the Xiao family today is far more than just Emperor Yan.
Not to mention others, the current Xiao family leader, the ancestor of the Xiao family thousands of years ago, is also an existence that cannot be ignored. It is also because of him that the Xiao family, which was originally just a small family, could grow rapidly in just ten years and become a huge force comparable to the ancient family and the medicine family.
"There's nothing to see here."
Hai Bodong exhaled a breath of turbid air. This was the conclusion he came to after negotiating with Nalan Su, but he didn't care about these. If it weren't for the appearance issue, he had to wait until the ceremony was over. Hai Bodong felt that it would be easy to withdraw after the negotiation was over.
And above the Nalan Mansion, the three of them were on the cloud, looking at everything below, and they couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
"They are all familiar faces——"
Yao Wan murmured unconsciously, and naturally saw Hai Bodong at a glance.
"Sister Ya Fei is here too?"
Xiao Yan murmured subconsciously, with some surprise and astonishment between his eyebrows, but think about it, relying on the connection with Hai Bodong, Ya Fei also successfully became the head of the Miter family. Although the Nalan family is somewhat embarrassing in their eyes, it is also a force with high-level Dou Sheng combat power, which is not easy to deal with.
"Oh, you still remember Sister Ya Fei."
When Yao Wan heard the address, she couldn't help but turn around and laughed. The alertness and needle-like sharpness in the words even made Nalan Yanran look sideways.
Her reaction at the beginning was not so big.
I always feel that she has awakened something incredible after going to the world...
No mistake, one post, one content, one content, one book, one forum, one 6, one 9!
"After all, he was the one who helped me. I'm not a noble, so how can I forget things?"
Xiao Yan paused. If he couldn't even understand this, then he could just wait to be kicked off the bed.
"...That's true."
Yao Wan snorted lightly, and when she turned around, she naturally met Nalan Yanran's eyes, and then glared at her fiercely.
It was strange to say that when she entered the imperial capital, she still felt strange, but at this moment, Nalan Yanran felt familiar with the past, as if everything had returned to the birthday banquet more than 20 years ago without her noticing.
At that time, they had just settled the entanglement of not getting along with each other in a casual chat, and seemed to be quietly waiting for the arrival of the three-year appointment.
Who could have thought that so many things would happen later.
"What is Nalan thinking about?"
Xiao Yan looked at Nalan Yanran, and naturally saw her slightly absent-minded eyes at the moment, and couldn't help asking.
"I was wondering how I fell into your trap step by step."
Nalan Yanran came back to her senses, couldn't help but glance at Xiao Yan, and snorted: "It's really... time flies."
Nalan Yanran didn't show up at the Nalan family's banquet after all, and Nalan Su could only convey the reply from the Xiao family to the guests with an embarrassed face, but most of the people present knew what was going on in their hearts, and looked at each other in silence.
Nalan Yanran was not surprised by this, but she didn't plan to show up.
Nalan Yanran could come back to see, but another Doudi from the Xiao Realm would never come for the Nalan family, and she knew the meaning of it very well.
Until the banquet ended and the guests dispersed, Nalan Yanran slowly stood up.
"Let's go back."
