Chapter 260 Became a Delicious Bun

Xiao Lin slowly opened his eyes and looked at his newly grown arm. It was as white as a baby's skin. If those beauty-loving women saw it, they would surely be very jealous!

"I thought I would have to wait ten or eight years, but I didn't expect it to grow out so quickly!"

Xiao Lin sighed. He was reluctant to change his arm to someone else's before. On the one hand, he wanted to soundproof it, and on the other hand, he hoped to boost Xiao Zhen's fighting spirit. This was also his wish as a father for his son to become successful.

"Master Xiao Zhen is indeed amazing. He is truly a hero when he is young. There is a girl in my clan who is extremely beautiful. I wonder if Master Xiao Zhen is willing to take her as his concubine!"

"Go away! My niece is a famous beauty in the imperial capital. It's not your girl's turn to take a concubine!"

"What are you guys arguing about? My two daughters are real twin sisters. They look pretty good. As long as the young master gives the order, they don't have to be concubines, but maids are fine!"

"Who do you think you are? Our family and the Xiao family are just across the street from each other. We have been neighbors for almost a hundred years. There must be a first come first served rule!"

Xiao Zhen was suddenly surrounded by a crowd of people. Everyone of them was so enthusiastic. How could he bear it?

Xiao Lin's eyelids twitched, and he was about to curse. He had just grown an arm, and there were no people to congratulate him? After all, I am the head of the family, managing the food of nearly 10,000 people. Don't I have any dignity?

Suddenly, Xiao Lin felt the breath in his body begin to become restless, and his fighting spirit also showed a slight change.

Although the change was not serious, the people present had high cultivation levels and they obviously noticed the abnormality.

Nalan Jie asked with concern: "Old Xiao, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with the hand that just grew out?"

Everyone took a look and wondered if there really was something wrong with the newly grown hand. If so, should it be cut off?

Xiao Lin exhaled slowly, carefully felt the situation inside his body, and a faint smile appeared on the corners of his mouth. He already had a rough guess about the changes in himself.

"If I'm not mistaken, Patriarch Xiao Lin should be about to have a breakthrough!"

As a veteran Douhuang warrior, Jia Xingtian quickly figured out the reason for this phenomenon.

"What! Lao Xiao, you are going to break through to Dou Huang!"

Nalan Jie cried out in disbelief. Back then, they both became Dou Wang when they were almost the same level, but now he is still struggling in the Dou Wang realm, and his good friend is about to take that step first.

Xiao Lin patted his old friend on the shoulder and consoled him, "Don't worry, old brother. I believe you will have a breakthrough sooner or later!"

Nalan Jie curled his lips and said unhappily, "You old man, it's easy for you to say that. I don't have a son who can send me a sixth-grade elixir.

If you don't suggest it, we can exchange our sons, and I can buy one get one free and give you my granddaughter!"

Xiao Lin punched Nalan Jie on the chest and laughed, "Old man, what are you talking about? If I were to exchange my son with you, I would be at a big loss.

Besides, you, my granddaughter, are engaged to my grandson. Sooner or later, you will be a member of the Xiao family. You will have to send her off when the time comes!"

Nalan Jie really wanted to give this old guy Xiao Lin a hard kick. Since he didn't know how to talk this time, they had been brothers for nothing.

Jia Xingtian glanced at Xiao Lin. A strong man who was about to become a Dou Huang was also a considerable threat. After all, looking at the entire empire, there were no more than two dozen Dou Huangs, both openly and secretly.

He sighed. The Xiao family is getting more and more powerful now. Jia Xingtian can only be vigilant secretly. After all, the two families are still intermarried on the surface, and everything is for the empire, which makes this old man worried.

The news could not be hidden. The fact that Xiao Lin had grown an arm, or that he was about to be promoted to Dou Huang, although surprising, was another more important piece of news.

After who knows how many years, a sixth-rank alchemist appeared in the Jia Ma Empire, and he was not even 20 years old.

It is said that after a certain sect leader heard the news, he broke several cups.

Even the famous alchemist Gu He couldn't help but sigh to the sky.

"Since you gave birth to me, Gu He, why did you also give birth to Xiao Zhen? It makes us two live in the same era. It's really sad for me!"

Xiao Zhen's reputation as a sixth-grade alchemist was spread by secret spies, and soon even the neighboring empire knew about it.

Xiao Zhen didn't really care about this. He could hide his strength and use it to trick the opponent when necessary. But he could publicize his alchemy skills. In that case, he could make friends with many powerful people.

In recent days, Xiao Zhen has been locking himself in a dark basement. His main goal now is to improve his alchemy skills. Even Chiyu has been temporarily neglected.

One's own business knows one's own business. Xiao Zhen has a general understanding of his own abilities. He was able to refine the sixth-grade elixir for regenerating severed limbs, and that demon pill played a big role in the effort.

After Xiao Zhen refined the sixth-grade elixir several times, it either became a pile of black slag or an unsatisfactory semi-finished product. If he was not wealthy, he really could not afford such a waste.

"It's almost done! My sixth-grade violent Yuan Dan will be completed soon!"

Xiao Zhen looked at the furnace in front of him nervously. A pill was slowly turning inside. Green flames were constantly surrounding it, like a mother's embrace, constantly nurturing the pill.

Baoyuandan is a kind of elixir that can cause temporary explosive effects. Its main function is to temporarily improve cultivation. For example, Douhuang can be improved by one star. However, the effect of the medicine only lasts for ten minutes, and there will be a period of weakness afterwards. It can only be regarded as one of the last desperate means.

Just when the elixir was about to succeed, the energy around the basement began to slowly gather, and even some strange phenomena occurred outside.

After some disciples of the Xiao family noticed the unusual phenomenon, they were no longer surprised. It had happened more than ten times in the past few days, which made them somewhat accustomed to it.

Xiao Zhen slowly opened the furnace lid, and a translucent pill slowly appeared before his eyes.

Xiao Zhen looked at it carefully for a few seconds and nodded with satisfaction. This was the first finished product in the past few days. Although it was only the lowest-level sixth-grade elixir, its value was much higher than that of a fifth-grade elixir.

"I finally succeeded. I've been so overwhelmed these past few days. Today I can finally go out and relax!"

As soon as Xiao Zhen walked out of the secret room, he saw Die waiting outside.

"You finally decided to come out. I thought you were going to live in there forever!"

Xiao Zhen scratched his head in embarrassment and said awkwardly: "I just want to improve my medicine refining skills. After all, people have spread rumors that I am a god. If I don't have any real skills, it would be a bit unreasonable!"

Die covered her mouth and chuckled, "You are not wrong to worry. It has only been less than three days and some forces can no longer hold back."

Xiao Zhen asked in doubt: "Did anything happen during the time I was in seclusion refining the elixir?"

Die nodded and explained, "Three forces came to the Xiao family yesterday, all wanting you, the sixth-grade alchemy master, to help them make a few six-bottle pills!"

Xiao Zhen asked doubtfully: "Which three forces are they? Have they left now?"

Dieyu pointed at her lower lip and said thoughtfully, "They are the Mu family, the Mitel family, and the royal family."

Xiao Zhen said in surprise: "Even the royal family is here, I wonder who is leading the way?"

Die glanced at him calmly and said casually: "Who else could it be? Of course it's your father-in-law, the current emperor of the empire!"

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Listening to Die's sarcastic words, Xiao Zhen couldn't help coughing a few times and didn't know how to continue asking.

At noon, Xiao Zhen, who had just finished taking a shower and was enjoying lunch, was captured by Lao Xiao as a soldier.
