With the landing of the lion-vulture, a man, a woman, and a little girl with drool at the corner of her mouth arrived in the most prosperous city of the Jia Ma Empire.
The appearance of the three immediately attracted the attention of those around them.
The black-robed youth, though possessing an extraordinary aura, was ultimately too young. Even though some young girls blushed and whispered about him, he didn't have such a high rate of glances.
However, the woman beside him, dressed in a red cheongsam, successfully caused a sensation among the men of the imperial capital.
"Damn, this woman is really beautiful."
"Tsk tsk, this figure, I'd die happy after having her once."
"Look at you, you have no prospects. I'm satisfied just looking."
As a mature and beautiful top-tier woman, Ya Fei's looks, figure, and temperament were enough to drive any man wild.
As for the little kid happily eating a lollipop behind them, though cute, everyone ignored him.
Fortunately, the child was focused on eating and didn't care about the stares.
At this moment, a young master from a noble family suddenly recognized the woman in the qipao.
"It's Ya Fei! It's Ya Fei from the Mite'er Family. Didn't she get sent out by the Mite'er Family to gain experience? How is she back after only a year?"
"Who knows, but that figure is the real deal. Truly worthy of being the capital's flower, on par with Princess Yaoye."
The surrounding people chattered. Xiao Yan, looking at Ya Fei's calm expression, suddenly smirked and took her hand.
"I didn't expect you to be so famous here."
"Everyone's watching." Ya Fei's delicate face flushed slightly as Xiao Yan held her hand in public. She struggled a bit, but couldn't pull her hand free from his grasp.
"One of the reasons I came here was to let the Mite'er Family know I'm here. What are you afraid of?" Xiao Yan tightened his grip.
Hearing this, Ya Fei stopped struggling and instead moved closer to Xiao Yan.
This young man was always so overbearing, but his strength allowed him to be.
The three days they had spent together had inexplicably given Ya Fei a sense of security.
"Damn, who is that guy? He's holding Ya Fei's hand!"
"Ugh, I'm so jealous! That guy is the worst."
"Don't hold me back! I'm going to kill him!" A young man made a move as if he was going to charge forward.
His companion looked blankly at his sleeve, which was being held tightly, and said, "I didn't stop you."
The Mite'er Family started as merchants and had a long history. They had been one of the three major families in the Jia Ma Empire for over a hundred years. Over the century, the family had accumulated immense wealth, so much so that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were richer than a country.
In the Jia Ma Empire, there was nothing the Mite'er Family couldn't buy. If something wasn't available, it simply meant that the Jia Ma Empire didn't have it.
This was the impression the vast family left on the people of the empire.
Of course, "vast" was relative.
If compared to the Xiao Clan, the Mite'er Family might not even be as powerful as a single village.
The moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Mite'er Family's territory, they were unaware that they were about to encounter something far more significant than they could imagine.
"This is the Mite'er Family's clan territory," Ya Fei said, looking at the sprawling manor before them.
The manor was vast. The smaller front section was located within the capital city, housing high-ranking officials, while the larger rear section was situated on the outskirts, accommodating ordinary members of the family.
In addition, multiple properties within the capital were under this family's name.
"The design is quite good," Xiao Yan nodded.
The manor before him was decorated lavishly but not ostentatiously, exquisite but not gaudy, possessing a touch of nobility.
"Come, let me take you in to see the Elder," Ya Fei said with a smile, linking her arm through Xiao Yan's.
"Halt! No outsiders are allowed to disturb Miss Ya Fei?"
The two guards at the entrance were about to chase them away when they were stunned to realize that the beautiful and captivating woman before them was actually Ya Fei, who had been sent out for training a year ago.
"I have some matters to discuss with the Elder," Ya Fei glanced at the two of them.
"Uh, Miss, please enter." The two guards exchanged glances and then looked at Xiao Yan.
"Young master."
"This young master is a distinguished guest I've brought, and he will have a significant impact on the family."
"Please, come in."
The two guards bowed slightly to Xiao Yan. It was clear that although Ya Fei was ostracized by many within the family, she held considerable authority over the servants.
"Don't let them in." Just as the two of them were about to enter the estate, a faint voice rang out.
Ya Fei's complexion instantly turned grim, while Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.
A young man had emerged from the estate, his face twisted in a smirk as he looked at Ya Fei.
The young man was about the same age as Ya Fei, his face slightly pale, clearly from excessive indulgence. Although he wasn't particularly robust in build, the aura emanating from his body indicated that he had reached the level of a Nine-Star Dou Practitioner.
"Lei Le, this is a distinguished guest I've brought for the family. Don't you dare interfere with important matters," Ya Fei said coldly, clearly disgusted.
"Ya Fei, it's one thing for you to pick up a pretty boy outside, but to bring him back to the family and brazenly call him a distinguished guest…"
Lei Le's gaze greedily swept over Ya Fei. When he saw her jade-like hand on Xiao Yan's arm, undisguised jealousy flashed across his face.
"Ah, finally someone recognizes me as a pretty boy who lives off his looks," Xiao Yan said with a satisfied smile.
"Oh, kid, you've got a thick skin. But you're not qualified to be a son-in-law of the Mite'er Family." Lei Le sneered.
"Neither you nor this slut will be entering today."
"Slap." Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Yan had already delivered a resounding slap.
The speed was so fast that Lei Le didn't even have time to react before he was spitting blood and collapsing to the ground, several teeth mixed in with the blood.
"Bastard, you…"
Lei Le lay on the ground, his face filled with venom as he stared at Xiao Yan, his words slurred.
"Daring to hit me in the Mite'er Family, you must die today."
"Go call all your backers. Otherwise, you're going to die," Xiao Yan said expressionlessly, as if looking at an ant.
"Why aren't you two going to call for help?" Lei Le glanced at the two guards at the door.
One guard looked at Ya Fei with a complicated expression, but found her completely unfazed. He then gritted his teeth and hurried towards the area where the elders resided.
This young man really doesn't know his place, daring to hit someone in the Mite'er Family. This time, even Miss Ya Fei probably can't protect him, can she?
He thought to himself.
A moment later, a flurry of hurried footsteps approached. Leading the way was an old man with a cold expression.
He strode from the courtyard to the mansion's entrance in a few steps. Seeing his grandson's swollen face, the old man's expression turned ice cold.
He pointed a finger at Xiao Yan and said coldly, "Where did this little bastard come from? How dare he lay a hand on my..."
"Buzz!" Before he could finish, a crimson beam of light suddenly erupted from the space behind Xiao Yan.
The beam was over ten feet thick, carrying terrifying energy and intense heat. It swept past the old man, and he was instantly incinerated into nothingness.
Aside from a bottomless black hole silently burned into the ground by the terrifying beam, there was no other trace.
The space rippled slightly, and the Two Sages of Literature and Martial Arts, who had been concealed behind Xiao Yan, emerged.
