Chapter 16 Helpless but also envious

Looking at his slightly embarrassed old father in front of him, Xiao Yan tilted his head in confusion.

"Father, what are you talking about?"

"It's these Xiao family children who you supervised the training! Their actual combat level is too outrageous!"

Xiao Zhan grabbed Xiao Yan's shoulders and shook back and forth, his eyes full of shock.

The fact that Jialebi's son Jialeo was defeated by Xiao Yan was known to all Wutan City, and Xiao Zhan naturally heard about it.

At that time, he was still laughing and talking about this with the three elders. Regardless of Jialeo's character, his strength was at least a fighter, but he couldn't even beat his son who had the third stage of fighting power. He was really useless.

However, just now, after Xiao Zhan accompanied the Xiao family children to complete the actual combat training, he was completely confused.

These little guys. What the hell are they? ? ?

Obviously, none of them are even fighters, and it should be easy for Xiao Zhan, a great fighter, to be a sparring partner.

However, the actual situation is that when Xiao Zhan was fighting with the Xiao family children, he felt unimaginable pressure.

Dou Qi has indeed not reached Dou Zhe, there is no doubt about that.

But that speed! That strength! It can already be compared with high-level Dou Zhe! Xiao Mei and Xiao Xun'er, who are ranked at the top of the family, are even more terrifying, and Xiao Zhan feels like Dou Masters!

Too scary!

How did the strength of our Xiao family members become so terrifying? !

"Is it outrageous?"

Hearing Xiao Zhan's words, Xiao Yan pinched his chin, with a trace of doubt in his eyes.

"I think it's quite normal."

Hearing Xiao Yan's words without knowing it, Yao Chen in the ring couldn't help but complain.

Not outrageous? Still think it's quite normal?

You beat a one-star Dou Zhe down with two hits with a three-stage Dou Zhili, and you can still think it's normal?

None of the girls and boys you trained are easy to mess with. They train like crazy every day. It would be unfair if they are not strong in actual combat.

"Forget it, I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go back to supervise the training."

Xiao Yan waved his hand lightly, thinking that his father was confused in his sleep, leaving Xiao Zhan alone to stand there in a daze. Thinking of what Xiao Yan had just said, he couldn't help but fall into self-doubt.

Could it be that I, the great Dou Shi, am really too weak?

Xiao Zhan pondered and slowly left here.

In the evening, Xiao Yan dismissed the Xiao family's children. Just as Xiao Mei and Xiao Xun'er were about to get close, Xiao Yan ran away, leaving the two little girls pouting in dissatisfaction.

And Xiao Yan returned to his room, locked the door tightly, sat at the table, took out the storage ring given to him by Ya Fei, and poured out the medicinal materials in it one by one. Yao Chen also came out of the ring and scanned these medicinal materials.

"It is indeed the medicinal materials needed for the Qi Gathering Powder, and they are all of the highest quality."

Compared to the foundation-building spirit liquid, the Qi Gathering Powder is a more popular prescription, and it is normal to prepare the corresponding medicinal materials in advance.

"Hmm?"

Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows, looked at the familiar medicinal materials placed in the corner, and reached out to pick them up.

"Are these the medicinal materials for the foundation-building spirit liquid?"

"Ah~~~I see." Yao Chen seemed to understand something, pinching his beautiful chin and nodded lightly, "The girl named Ya Fei must have guessed that the bottle of foundation-building spirit liquid was originally intended for you, but she was forced to sell it. Now she has taken the initiative to prepare all the materials for you, just as a reward for asking you to refine the Qi Gathering Powder, and by the way, I can also do a favor."

"But I only asked Sister Ya Fei for the wood magic core that day?" Xiao Yan's mind was full of question marks.

"Your Wutan City is so small, and you are the son of the Xiao family, so you are also a celebrity here. I can find out what you bought by asking a little bit in the market. Is this difficult?"

Yao Chen glanced at his disciple and sighed slightly in his heart.

Although Xiao Yan is indeed a good person, his brain is sometimes not so good.

"Uh"

Xiao Yan scratched his face awkwardly, looking at the medicinal materials of the foundation-building spirit liquid, and a warm current gently touched his heart.

If she didn't really value herself, Ya Fei would definitely not do this.

"That girl is thoughtful. These medicinal materials can be used to refine five bottles of foundation-building spirit liquid, which is enough for you."

But Xiao Yan frowned slightly and whispered after a moment.

"It's not enough."

"Not enough?! Do you want to drink it?" Yao Chen glanced at Xiao Yan lightly, "We said that this thing only works for fighters and below. With your qualifications, three bottles are redundant. How can it be not enough?"

"If it's just me, it's enough."

Xiao Yan said slowly, and Yao Chen's eyebrows trembled slightly.

This kid really remembers his family all the time.

Although Yao Chen was quite helpless in his heart, he was so envious in his heart.

If there was such a person in his family, he would not be kicked out.

However, although Xiao Yan wanted the children of the Xiao family to enjoy the benefits, it was Yao Chen who refined the medicine after all, and even if he was Yao Chen's disciple, he should not have been too demanding.

But

"Senior Yao, can you..." "Okay, for us, whether we refine one bottle or ten bottles of foundation-building spirit liquid, it doesn't matter. It doesn't take much effort." Yao Chen interrupted Xiao Yan and said generously: "As long as the materials are enough, we will refine as much as you want."

"Thank you, Senior Yao!"

Xiao Yan was overjoyed. Yao Chen waved his hand lightly, raised his jade hand gently, and lifted the materials on the table used to refine the Qi Gathering Powder into the air, and the fingertips ignited a faint white flame.

"Let's help you boy return the favor first~"

Seeing Yao Shen's extremely beautiful face showing seriousness after he started refining the medicine, Xiao Yan couldn't help but be fascinated again.

Half an hour later, Xiao Yan looked at the five Qi Gathering Powders neatly arranged on the table. The color was actually more dazzling than the Qi Gathering Powder given by Nalan Yanran that day. He was shocked and also had some suspicions in his heart.

The alchemist level of my teacher may be higher than that of the famous Dan King Furukawa of the Gama Empire!

"The nights are long and there are many dreams. Such a valuable thing must be sent over quickly."

Xiao Yan carefully put the five Qi Gathering Powders into the bottle, pulled out the cloak from that day from the closet, put on the cloak just like that day and quietly left Xiao's house.

Arriving at the Miter Auction House, I was able to meet Yafei after being informed by the guards.

"Brother Xiao Yan, do you have anything to do with your sister?"

Yafei looked at Xiao Yan strangely. Could it be that she had misplaced the materials in the ring?

"Teacher has finished refining the five Qi Gathering Powders. I will send them to Sister Yafei."

Xiao Yan handed the bottle containing five Qi Gathering Powders to Yafei. Looking at the five green pills in the bottle, Yafei's eyes were filled with astonishment.

She has seen Juqi San and knows what it looks like.

Therefore, you can tell at a glance that these five pills are genuine Qi Gathering Powders, and the quality is definitely of the highest quality!

Even the Qi Gathering Powder refined by the Alchemy King Furukawa is definitely not of this quality!

In just one afternoon, five Qi Gathering Powders of this quality were refined.

What level of alchemist is this teacher that Xiao Yan's younger brother worships? !

Although she was extremely shocked, Yafei quickly calmed down her expression, reached out to take the bottle, and said with a charming smile.

"My brother really didn't disappoint my sister~"

As I said before, Yafei will not ask a word about things that should not be asked, no matter how curious she is.

"Sister Yafei, I have one more request."

"Brother, whatever you say, as long as my sister can do it."

"That's it." Xiao Yan scratched the side of his face in embarrassment, "Can you help me buy another sixty copies of those medicinal materials for the foundation-building spiritual liquid?"

"Forehead"

Ya Fei was stunned for a moment, and Xiao Yan immediately added.

"Of course, I'll pay!"

"Money is not an issue. It doesn't matter if my sister gives you these things." Yafei waved her jade hand lightly, opened and closed her red lips and said softly: "The main reason is the insufficient supply of materials. The purple-leaf orchid and bone-washing flower are okay, and the wood-type magic core Even if it’s just the first level, it’s hard to find so many at once.”

"That's it"

Xiao Yan frowned slightly, and Ya Fei continued.

"But brother, you probably don't need to use so much at one time. I will prepare part of it from the auction house for you, and my sister will find a way to transfer the rest from other auction houses."

"Then please leave it to Sister Yafei." Xiao Yan said, taking out the black gold card, "Sister Yafei can just withdraw the money you need from it."

Seeing the black gold card handed over by Xiao Yan, Yafei was about to say something, but Xiao Yan blocked her back.

"Sister Yafei, my brother knows your kindness and is very grateful. However, things that should be distinguished should be clearly distinguished. I have been taking advantage of Sister Yafei. My brother feels really sorry. At least the cost must be paid. I’ll pay for it, Sister Yafei, don’t make it difficult for your brother.”

Xiao Yan said solemnly with a serious look on his face. Ya Fei was stunned for a long time. After a moment, she smiled helplessly and reached out to take the black gold card.

"Okay then, I'll just follow my brother's wishes this time."

"Yes." Seeing Yafei accept the black gold card, Xiao Yan nodded with a smile and pulled up the cloak again to cover his face, "Sister Yafei, Xiao Yan takes leave."

"Walk slowly~~~"

Watching Xiao Yan leave, the smile on Ya Fei's face gradually disappeared, her eyes fixed on the bottle containing Qi Gathering Powder in her hand.

"Looking back, I need to remind my brother a little bit."

Yafei was almost certain in her heart that the teacher Xiao Yan worshiped was definitely an alchemist above Dan Wang Guhe.

It wouldn't matter if Xiao Yan's family was big enough, but it was just a small aristocratic family in a small Wutan City.

It would be better if no one knew about it, but if anyone knew about it, it would probably bring countless troubles to the Xiao family.

Although this favor is great, the consequences it brings are far beyond what the small Xiao family can bear.

A little carelessness may bring disaster to the Xiao family!

Although Ya Fei thought that with Xiao Yan's calm personality, he should have taken this into consideration.

But to be on the safe side, Ya Fei decided to take the time to give him a heads up.

After all, I attach great importance to Xiao Yan, my younger brother.
