Chapter 254 Party
"Old Man Hai! I haven't seen you for decades, and I thought you were dead! I didn't expect you were still alive!" Fa Ma smiled at Hai Bodong.

"Haha, it's not that easy for me to die! I just felt bored, so I lived in seclusion for decades!" Hai Bodong said with a faint smile.

"It's rare for us three old guys to get together, so why don't you all come over to my place and reminisce about the past!" Jia Xingtian invited enthusiastically.

Hearing this, Hai Bodong and Fa Ma looked at each other. They knew that Jia Xingtian had no good intentions.

"Old Jia, you're welcome! But I still have to prepare some matters for the Alchemist Conference, so I don't have time for the moment!" Fa Ma declined.

"I haven't been back to visit my family for such a long time. I have to go back to the Mittel family first. But I'm used to being idle and I won't interfere in family affairs anymore!" Hai Bodong also politely declined.

"Okay then! Let's meet again later! But little friend Bu Jingyun, I wonder if you can come to my place and visit when you are free?" Jia Xingtian looked at Xiao Yan and asked with a smile.

"I'm sorry! I have to practice alchemy skills recently to prepare for the upcoming competition!" Xiao Yan knew what was in this palace, so how could he look for trouble!

"Haha, that's true! If you need any medicinal herbs, you can come to me!" Jia Xingtian said to Xiao Yan with a faint smile.

"Thank you very much for your kindness, Mr. Jia!" Xiao Yan bowed in thanks.

"Everyone! I still have things to deal with, so I'll go back first. We'll get together again later." Jia Xingtian smiled and bowed to everyone.

"Sure!" Everyone nodded in return.

As soon as Jia Xingtian returned to the palace, he could no longer suppress his injuries and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"What a strong body!" Jia Xingtian covered his chest. It was obvious that Xiao Yan's previous attack was not so easy to take.

After Jia Xingtian left, Fa Ma glanced at Xiao Yan, and when he saw that Xiao Yan was fine, he left directly under the pretext of preparing for the Alchemist Conference.

"Ei Lao, your room has been cleaned for you! Do you want to go back and live there?" Mitteltenshan looked at Hai Bodong and asked respectfully.

"No! I'd better accompany Bu Jingyun to where he lives!" Hai Bodong shook his head and said to Xiao Yan.

Hearing this, Mittel Fujiyama was slightly embarrassed.

"Hehe, the place where I live is a little inconvenient. After we finish discussing these things, Mr. Hai, you should go back to live with the family!" Xiao Yan said with a faint smile.

"Uh...hahaha! Okay!" Hai Bodong seemed to remember something at this time and said with a big laugh.

Xiao Yan and Hai Bodong ignored the three powerful family heads in the imperial capital and flew directly to the Mitre Auction House.

Nalan Jie and Mu Chen naturally didn't say much when they saw this. After all, strength determined everything. Xiao Yan was powerful, so there was no need for him to be polite to them.

When Mittel Fujiyama saw Ebi return, he happily went back to his family to prepare.

Although Hai Bodong said that he would not care about family affairs, he didn't need to care at all. The Douhuang relied on his reputation, and he didn't need to do anything to intimidate other families.

Although Nalan Jie was afraid of Hai Bodong's return, he naturally went to prepare for the dinner with a smile when he thought that he might also become a Dou Huang.

Only Mu Chen was left alone, disheveled in the wind. After all, the Mu family was the weakest now.

"Old Man Hai, why did you start a fight with Jia Xingtian?" Xiao Yan couldn't wait to ask as soon as he returned to the Mitre Auction House.

"Maybe my whereabouts were exposed! Jia Xingtian led me to the imperial mausoleum. I thought he was just trying to intimidate me and there was no need to worry about my life, so I followed him. At first, it was fine. The two sides were just sparring normally. Who knew that old man Jia Xingtian suddenly attacked, and his moves were fierce and vicious. If you hadn't arrived quickly, I'm afraid I would really die in his hands." Hai Bodong sighed, wondering why his old friend had become like this. "What about his strength? Has he reached Dou Zong?" Xiao Yan only fought with Jia Xingtian once, so he couldn't judge his true strength.

"Of course I haven't reached the Dou Zong level, otherwise I would not be alive. But even though I haven't reached the Dou Zong level, I'm already at the peak of the Dou Huang level, and I'm only one step away from breaking through to the Dou Zong level!" Hai Bodong said as a matter of course.

“It seems that even with the help of the Soul Palace, it is not so easy to reach the Dou Zong level!” Xiao Yan thought to himself.

As night falls, a man and a woman are walking on the street. The woman happily holds the man's arm, and they chat and laugh as they walk, looking very sweet.

Xiao Yan and Ya Fei were invited to the Nalan family to attend Grandpa Nalan's banquet. Although they were far away, they could still feel the liveliness of the Nalan family at this time.

"Did you really cure Grandpa Nalan?" Ya Fei looked at Xiao Yan in disbelief. Based on her understanding of Xiao Yan, she knew that Xiao Yan would never be so kind.

"Of course it's true! After all, you can earn 70 million gold coins!" Xiao Yan said as a matter of course.

Hearing this, Ya Fei curled her lips. She didn't believe a single word Xiao Yan said.

Since the Mittel Auction House and the Nalan family were not far apart, the two soon arrived at the Nalan family's villa.

There was singing and dancing in the courtyard, and both sides were filled with noble children from major families in the imperial capital.

This time, not only did Mr. Nalan gradually recover, but his strength also improved. Smart people would not miss this good opportunity and would come to curry favor with him.

"Mr. Bu Jingyun and Miss Yafei are here! Please take a seat!" When Nalan Jie saw Xiao Yan and Yafei arrived, he quickly stood up and greeted them warmly.

The Mu family patriarch Mu Chen and the Mitel family elder Mitel Tengshan, who were sitting on both sides of Nalan Jie, also stood up and greeted him with smiles.

Everyone attending the banquet was shocked when they saw this. These three were people who could cause a huge uproar in the imperial capital just by stomping their feet!

It is incredible that a person with such strange appearance should be treated with such respect.

Xiao Yan smiled and nodded, then took Ya Fei to sit at the dining table on the right.

However, as soon as Xiao Yan raised his head, he saw a beautiful woman in a white brocade robe staring at him with gnashing teeth.

Xiao Yan touched his nose awkwardly, picked up the wine glass on the table, raised his hand to make a please gesture, and drank it all in one gulp.

Unexpectedly, the beauty turned her face away and stopped looking at Xiao Yan.

"It seems that Princess Yao Ye is quite dissatisfied with you! Have you done anything to her?" Ya Fei looked at Yao Ye, then at Xiao Yan, with a meaningful expression on her face.

"Sister, do you know Bu Jingyun?" Yaoyue, who was beside Yaoye, looked Xiao Yan up and down and frowned slightly. Apart from seeing that Xiao Yan was dressed flashily, she really didn't see anything else.

"I don't know him! I just thought he was dressed a bit flashy and I couldn't bear to look at him!" Yao Ye looked at Xiao Yan who was talking and laughing with Ya Fei across from him, and a nameless anger burned in his heart, and he wanted to burn Xiao Yan to death.

"Not only my sister dislikes him, I dislike him too! But... hehe! Yafei is someone's beloved one!" Yaoyue said with some gloating.

Hearing this, Yao Ye shook his head helplessly. He naturally knew who Yao Yue was talking about, but that person was not even worthy of carrying Xiao Yan's shoes, let alone embarrassing Xiao Yan.
