"Brother Xiao Yan, you come here to buy medicinal materials every day, so you should be an alchemist, right?" After packing the medicinal materials Xiao Yan needed today, Ye Lingyu also found some random topics to chat with as usual.
"Yeah." Xiao Yan nodded. He didn't just buy these medicinal materials to have a good relationship with this little guy. Because these medicinal materials stay in the same medicinal field as the Yan of Creatures, they will also have some If you use the breath of the flame of life to prepare a medicinal solution, you may be able to achieve the effect that the little demon said.
"Brother Xiao Yan, what level of alchemist are you?" After seeing Xiao Yan admit that he was an alchemist, Ye Lingyu couldn't help but asked curiously.
"About fifth grade." Xiao Yan replied casually. It's not that he didn't want to reveal his true level, but if he said that he was a ninth-grade alchemist, the little girl opposite would probably think he was joking, so he I only applied for a level that was easier for this little girl to accept.
"Fifth-grade alchemist, so amazing." Ye Lingyu exclaimed. Although she didn't like to practice alchemy, she also knew how difficult it was to improve the level of an alchemist. A fifth-grade alchemist was already considered very good in Yecheng City. Not a bad level, not to mention that his brother Xiao Yan still looks very young. Maybe he will grow into a seventh or eighth grade alchemy master in the future.
"It's just a fluke, and Miss Ye is also an alchemist. With your talent, it shouldn't be difficult to reach the level of a fifth-grade alchemist." Xiao Yan said with a slight smile.
"Eh? How do you know that I am also an alchemist?" Ye Lingyu couldn't help but said a little strangely.
"Have you forgotten? What an alchemist is best at is soul power. Miss Ye, the soul fluctuations in your body are much stronger than ordinary people. I can naturally sense it." Xiao Yan said with a smile.
"That's it." Ye Lingyu nodded with some understanding, and then said, "It's not that simple to become a fifth-grade alchemist. I'm not even a first-grade alchemist now. I'm at most an alchemist apprentice. If I want to be like Brother Xiao Yan, you will probably have to wait until the Year of the Monkey to become a fifth-grade alchemist."
"How is that possible?" Xiao Yan couldn't help but was stunned. He could sense that the soul fluctuations in Ye Lingyu's body should be equivalent to that of a second-grade alchemist. As a family of alchemists, the Ye family would definitely have dedicated people to teach alchemy techniques. In addition, Considering her status as the daughter of the Ye family, she should have no shortage of medicine cauldrons and materials for practicing alchemy. How come she doesn't even have a first-grade alchemist?
"Uh... Actually, I don't like alchemy very much, and I'm not very diligent, so I don't practice much?" Ye Lingyu seemed to know why Xiao Yan was surprised, and Ye Lingyu scratched his head in embarrassment.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. No wonder when he met her in his previous life, her fighting qi cultivation level was even worse, but her alchemy level was barely that of a second-grade alchemist. He thought he would be able to do it before. It's not because she didn't meet a famous teacher that she was delayed. Now it seems that it's purely her own fault...
"I remember you said before that you were kicked out by your family. It should be related to this matter, right?" Xiao Yan sighed and said, "If your alchemy skills improve, your family should let you Let's go back?"
"That's true, but..." Ye Lingyu hesitated for a moment and said, "It's too difficult for me to improve my alchemy skills."
"Then let me help you." Xiao Yan said with a smile. In any case, he is now a genuine ninth-level alchemist. It is absolutely easy to guide an alchemy apprentice to improve one or two levels in a short period of time. matter.
Hearing what Xiao Yan said, Ye Lingyu was stunned for a moment, but when she thought about being able to be closer to Xiao Yan, she nodded with some joy. When she called out the title "teacher", Xiao Yan couldn't help but feel a little nervous. It feels like a world away, as if it reminds me of that time in my previous life.
The little demon is a little puzzled. Although you are allowed to have contact with this little girl, you don't need to have such a close relationship... Could it be that your master is really good at this? Thinking about it carefully, it seems that all the little girls around him are this type of little girls, so is his body shape also due to his master's bad habits?
Xiao Yan naturally didn't know that the compassion he aroused because of his past life experience once again became the ironclad proof that he was a lolicon. However, when Xiao Yan began to teach Ye Lingyu in person, he finally realized that this guy was indeed Not very suitable for being an alchemist.
He couldn't figure out why someone refining a bottle of the simplest blood coagulation powder would explode...
In just a few minutes, this guy broke almost all the taboos in the medicine refining world. After generating the flame, he just threw the medicinal materials into it without injecting the wood attribute fighting spirit. It didn't matter, there were only a few medicinal materials in total, but she was still able to do it. Mistaking the properties and order of these medicinal materials and asking her to control the heat, she heated up the medicine cauldron on the spot and turned it into an oven...
After finally getting the liquid out, I put it into a jade bottle and spilled more than half of it. The blood coagulation effect was not at all, and the entire jade bottle was almost corroded...
Xiao Yan looked at the black liquid in the half-corroded jade bottle and couldn't help but fell into deep thought. He was thinking that this guy might have more talent for making poison than the little medical fairy who is a poisonous body. At least the little medical fairy is. There is absolutely no way that a few medicinal materials used to treat injuries could be refined into such a highly toxic thing.
"Teacher...how do you think I'm doing?" Ye Lingyu came over holding the medicine cauldron that exploded into a basin, with a look of excitement on his face, and there were a few jet-black particles in the medicine cauldron. Pill, "I can finally condense pills. Does this mean that I am now a first-grade alchemist?"
"Don't call me teacher, I'm not qualified to be your teacher." Xiao Yan sighed softly and said, "I only ask you one thing, don't say that you are my apprentice after you go out."
He vaguely remembered that in his previous life, he had the intention of using this guy but he didn't pay much attention to teaching this guy. As a result, her fighting spirit cultivation level still improved like a rocket. But in this life, he was so attentive that he almost taught her how to practice step by step. Medicine, but the result is like this, could it be that the problem is not with this girl, but with herself?
Chapter 206: Two Hundred and Five, Flame of Living Beings
"Alas..." Xiao Yan sat at the counter, looking at Ye Lingyu who prepared several poisons one after another, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought. Until now, she didn't know whether to say that this girl was talented or that she didn't. Good talent.
You say she has talent. She can't even refine a coagulation powder. You say she has no talent. She can use several low-level healing herbs to make poison, so much so that Xiao Yan once suspected that this girl was... It’s not that she also has the poisonous body of Ernan, and she even went to spy on this little girl taking a bath. There is no mark of the poisonous body of Ernan on her body, so this talent can only be said to be innate.
"Little demon, how can I train this guy well?" Xiao Yan asked helplessly. As a strong fighting saint, he couldn't even teach an alchemy apprentice, which made him feel Feeling deeply frustrated, he had already begun to consider whether to bring the little girl to Xingyun Pavilion and let Yao Lao teach her.
"Master, don't you think...you care a little too much about this little girl?" The little demon hesitated for a moment and said.
"Is there any?" Xiao Yan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"Not to mention anything else, with your personality, Master, when have you ever bought something honestly without thinking of ways to get some benefits?" The little demon waved his hand and said helplessly, "And the master I know will never do this. Why bother doing something like this that is obviously not good for you?"
"..."
"Moreover, this little girl's problem is not because of her lack of talent. If that's the case, it would be easier to solve. With your ability, Master, there are many ways to solve this problem. The fact is that her talent is very good, but she doesn't want to learn. "
"Master, haven't you noticed that every time she prepares the medicine, her eyes are looking elsewhere. She obviously doesn't pay attention to it. How can she succeed in refining the medicine if she is not focused? That is to say, Master, you can Put up with her, if it were me, I would have whipped her a long time ago."
"You are right..." Xiao Yan sighed. He was indeed influenced by his previous life to have such an attitude towards her. Otherwise, with his current strength and identity, if he wanted to accept a disciple, he would be ten times better qualified than her. He couldn't even look down on her. How could this lazy little girl get her turn?
"Forget it, forget about that little girl, little demon, the energy of life accumulated in our body should be enough now, right?" Xiao Yan continued to ask.
"Actually, it was enough a few days ago." Xiaoyao waved his hand and said.
"Then didn't you tell me earlier?"
"You were busy teaching your precious apprentice at that time. I'm afraid that it would disturb your leisure time." The little demon had a nonchalant look on his face, and his extremely sinister tone made Xiao Yan want to pick it up and beat it up. Impulsive, but it was indeed his fault in this matter, so he did not have an attack, "Then let's go now."
"Okay, anyway, I've been craving that stuff for a long time." Xiaoyao rubbed his hands and said excitedly.
Xiao Yan turned around and glanced at Ye Lingyu, who was still tinkering with the medicinal materials. He sighed with some regret, and then left the medicine shop after saying that he was going to the medicine field to find some medicine. When he came to the back of the medicine shop, When she was in the small medicinal field, the little demon also appeared. She looked at the medicinal materials around her, closed her eyes and sensed them carefully for a while, then pointed to an area and said: "There."
Xiao Yan nodded, and then gently grasped the space with his palms to quietly seal the space here, so as to prevent the fluctuations caused by the appearance of the living beings from attracting the attention of the outside world. After doing this, he went to the Little Demon Under the guidance of the doctor, he tiptoed to a medicinal field and carefully opened a piece of land, revealing an object that looked like a ginseng underneath.
"Is this the flame of life?" Xiao Yan pulled up the ginseng tree and murmured in a low voice. He did not feel any fiery fluctuations on the medicinal plant, but the rich breath of life coming from it was Let him know clearly that this medicinal herb, which looks no different from ordinary ginseng, is the Flame of Life, which ranks fifth on the list of strange fires!
Although this kind of living creature's flame is not very effective in increasing combat power, it is a kind of strange fire that all alchemists dream of, because as long as you have this kind of strange fire, you don't need to search for any medicinal materials, as long as you have If there are rhizomes or seeds of this medicinal material on it, you can use the heat of life to promote its growth and germination.
Moreover, this creature's flame also has an ability that is enough to make anyone's heart beat. Because of its rich vitality, if it is refined, its life span will also be extended, and it can even be compared with those of others. Not only that, because of its vitality, it will recover quickly regardless of any injuries. Therefore, this creature's flame is also called the fire of longevity.
Although it has not been completely refined yet, Xiao Yan has just come into contact with this flame, and the life force emanating from it makes him feel relaxed and happy. If he can completely refine it, and then cooperate with the Three Thousand Flames With the ability of fire, it would be difficult for him to die. As for his lack of fighting ability, Xiao Yan didn't care much. After all, he already had a lot of strange fires in his body that were good at fighting.
As the power of his soul poured into the body of the medicinal plant, the appearance of the ginseng plant was also slightly distorted, and finally turned into a ball of green flame like a liquid. This was the original posture of the Flame of Life. He spoke lightly with his mouth. Zhang inhaled the green flame into his mouth, and finally shrank it inside his body.
Of course, this does not mean that he has refined this flame. After all, this thing is the fifth strange fire. It will take some time to refine it, so he just takes it into his body first, And put his own soul mark in its body, and then refine it together after the things here are dealt with.
"Alas, this should be the last unowned strange fire that can be found except for the Pure Lotus Demon Fire." After swallowing the flame of life into his body, Xiao Yan also sighed. When the Pure Lotus Demon Fire was born, He has to wait until more than ten years later. Who knows what changes will happen in more than ten years? I wonder if there is any way for him to enter the demon fire space in advance...
"Teacher! I succeeded!" At this moment, a shout called him back to reality. He turned around and saw Ye Lingyu running over holding the alchemy cauldron that exploded into a basin. Xiao Yan looked down. He couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth when he smelled the extremely unpleasant pitch black liquid in the medicinal cauldron. With his eyes, he could see that this thing was far more toxic than the previous one...
No, if this continues, this little brat will become a master of poison refining sooner or later. In order to bring her back on track, I can only give her something stronger.
Chapter 207 Gift
After finding the Flame of Life, Xiao Yan did not rush to leave Yecheng, but stayed in the small medicine shop to teach Ye Lingyu responsibly. What made him feel a little relieved was that although Ye Lingyu did not study alchemy with all his heart, , but her fighting spirit cultivation is improving at a very fast rate, and she also has unique talents in fighting skills.
In fact, Xiao Yan discovered this in his previous life, but at that time he did not bother to teach his apprentices, but in this life he also spent some time teaching some exercises and fighting skills to her. In just a few days, she I have already said that those fighting skills have been practiced to the point of minor success. This kind of talent can be ranked among the top three even in Xingyun Pavilion.
It's just that Yecheng is too small, so her talent is limited. If she can cultivate it in the future, she will definitely become a top powerhouse.
Of course, the biggest problem with this guy is her virtue of fishing for three days and drying the net for two days. She will start to be lazy as soon as she feels tired, which is a pure waste of talent. This was not the case when he met this guy in his previous life. On the contrary, he was extremely serious.
Xiao Yan thought about it carefully. When he met Ye Lingyu in his previous life, she was much older than she is now. She must have gone through a lot of things, which is why she developed her later character. But now Ye Lingyu is still a person with a prosperous life. The daughter of a wealthy family, naturally cannot have the same temperament as when I met her in the previous life.
Therefore, in order to get rid of her traitorous and slippery character, Xiao Yan even seriously considered whether to slaughter her whole family and let her live a life of ruin and destruction. This idea kept swirling in his mind, and even He almost took action, until he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a better way, which was also more time-consuming and labor-saving.
……
While Xiao Yan was counting the various medicinal materials in the medicine shop on the counter, Ye Lingyu held a big cake and enjoyed today's breakfast while asking without any image: "Teacher, what are we practicing today?"
"I won't practice today." Xiao Yan looked at Ye Lingyu's appearance, chuckled, and said: "Cultivation requires a balance between work and rest. You have practiced very hard during this period, and you should be tired. Come on, it’s time to relax, so I’ll let you have a day off today.”
"Master, please don't spoil her too much. Her virtue is called hard work?" Xiao Yao's voice sounded in Xiao Yan's heart, and she said angrily, "According to me, she should be locked up in a small dark room. , cut off her water and food, and if she doesn’t break through, we won’t let her out!”
"Really?" Ye Lingyu was obviously a little surprised by Xiao Yan's words today. She hesitated for a moment, then remembered something and asked: "Then...do you have anything to do today, teacher?"
"No, I want to have a good rest today." Xiao Yan still has that extremely gentle smile. Paired with his delicate face, it is difficult for people to feel bad about him. In addition, with the kind of... Chuchen's temperament is undoubtedly extremely lethal to some young girls.
"Then... how about we go shopping?" Ye Lingyu rolled his eyes and said, "Teacher, you are not from Yecheng, right? I tell you, there are many interesting places in Yecheng... Let me take you, my apprentice. Take a good look at the scenery of your hometown here."
"Okay." Xiao Yan smiled slightly. After today, they were going to be separated anyway. He had no objection to anything he did. After seeing Xiao Yan agreeing, Ye Lingyu was also a little happy and quickly returned to his room and changed into a beautiful dress. After buying the clothes, he took Xiao Yan to play around in Yecheng.
As a guide, Ye Lingyu is still very qualified. He kept introducing various scenery of Yecheng to Xiao Yan along the way. Xiao Yan naturally had no interest in these things, but he still pretended to be very cooperative. A very serious expression, and he would pretend to ask a few questions from time to time, which gave Ye Lingyu a great sense of satisfaction.
The day ended quickly. In the evening, after the two returned to the medicinal shop, Ye Lingyu was ready to rest, but just as she turned around, Xiao Yan stopped her, "Wait a minute."
"What's wrong? Teacher?"
"You are now considered my disciple, so I give you something as an initiation gift." Xiao Yan flicked his ring, and then, a blue jade ruler appeared in front of him In front of him, however, unlike the Xuanzhong Ruler used by Xiao Yan himself, this ruler has an extremely gorgeous shape and is also inlaid with a white magic core. From the appearance point of view, it is more like an exquisite work of art. rather than weapons.
"This ruler was specially made for you. It's called Han Lian. It's inlaid with the magic core of the Heavenly Bone Python. While enhancing its power, it also compressed a strange kind of magic called Heavenly Cold Fire in it. If beast fire is used against the enemy, it will definitely cause the enemy to suffer a big loss." Xiao Yan said with a slight smile.
Xiao Yan specially returned to Xingyun Pavilion to ask Master Feng to help make this Han Lian Ruler. Master Feng himself is a master of weapon refining, and Yao Lao's ring was made by him. The materials used for this weapon are also of the highest quality, and Xiao Yan even incorporated part of the power of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire into it, making the weapon even more powerful.
If Zi Yan and the others knew about this, they would be jealous to death. After all, they had been with Xiao Yan for so long, but they had never seen Xiao Yan prepare a gift for someone so carefully.
"This...is this for me?" Ye Lingyu fell in love with this weapon at first sight. She stroked the somewhat cold body and couldn't help but ask again.
"Of course." Xiao Yan touched her hair with a smile and said, "But you have to remember that when you go back, you have to leave a mark of your soul on the ruler, then it will truly recognize you as its master, otherwise Before you use it to attack the enemy, the hot and cold energy attached to Han Lian Chi may hurt you first."
"Thank you, teacher!" Ye Lingyu almost jumped up in excitement. If it weren't for her master-disciple status, she might even jump up and kiss Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan looked at the little girl's excited look and smiled and shook his head, " There’s no need to be so polite, besides, today is your birthday, so I should give you a gift.”
"Teacher, how did you know today is my birthday?" Ye Lingyu asked curiously.
"I am your master, so I naturally have to contact your family. They also told me your birthday." Xiao Yan explained. He was just about to let Ye Lingyu take a rest when he suddenly noticed something. The aura was approaching in this direction, and Ye Lingyu seemed to notice something was wrong in the atmosphere, and looked outside with a solemn expression.
"Is it finally here..." Xiao Yan whispered in his heart. The show he had carefully prepared for so long was finally about to begin...
Chapter 208: The Future Female Villain
"Be careful!" Xiao Yan hugged Ye Lingyu and rushed to the side quickly. The next moment, several powerful energy bursts tore the roof above their heads and landed on the spot where they were originally standing. Ye Lingyu didn't bother to check the store. Loss, he quickly looked up and saw several figures in black floating in the sky with fighting spirit wings, which also meant that these attackers were at least Dou Wang strong men!
"These guys... are all fighting emperors." Xiao Yan accurately stated the specific strength of these people. He took a slow breath, tried hard to put on a very dignified look, and protected Ye Lingyu. Behind him, he said: "Now we are in some trouble..."
"Miss Ye, please come with us." The leading man in black looked at Ye Lingyu who was hiding behind Xiao Yan and said slowly.
"These people...are they here for me?" Ye Lingyu suddenly came to his senses. As the eldest daughter of the Ye family, there would naturally be many people who wanted to kidnap her, but those people in the past were all kidnapped by her. The bodyguards were taken care of, but this time her bodyguards did not show up. It must have been secretly dealt with by these Dou Huang. After all, her bodyguards only had the strength of Dou Ling and could not be a match for Dou Huang.
"Your Ye family should not be far from here, right?" Xiao Yan turned around and asked. In fact, he had investigated it before. The Ye family is less than ten miles away from their medicine shop. This distance can be said to be neither close nor far. , if someone goes to send a message, someone should come to support soon.
"Yeah." Ye Lingyu nodded.
"Then you report the news, and I will hold them back." Xiao Yan turned his head, looked at the people in front of him, and said.
"How about that? If we want to leave, let's go together!"
"Stop talking nonsense. If you don't leave, we will all die here. If you run fast enough, I will be fine. Let's go." After Xiao Yan scolded angrily, he waved his backhand with a gentle force. Ye Lingyu was pushed out of the medicine shop by sending his Qi, and then he jumped up and started fighting with several Dou Huangs.
After Ye Lingyu was sent out of the medicine shop, she heard the sound of a fierce fight breaking out inside. She wanted to go in to help, but she also knew that with her own strength, even if she rushed in, she would only die, so she could only grit her teeth. According to what Xiao Yan said before, he ran towards the location of the Ye family, "Teacher, hold on, I will bring someone back to rescue you right away!"
After sensing that Ye Lingyu was gone, Xiao Yan also sighed, and then slapped the so-called Dou Huang warriors in front of him to death. These men in black probably never thought that this would be seen in their eyes until they died. The guy who looks so weak is actually a strong warrior...
You know, there are only so many Fighting Saints in the entire Dou Qi Continent, and those guys are all like dragons, so how could they appear in a small medicine shop and pretend to fight them a few times? It seems quite difficult. , You don’t play like this... Of course they don’t know that Xiao Yan’s hard look is really not just an act. He is trying hard to restrain himself from accidentally killing these guys.
It must be said that Ye Lingyu was very efficient. After a short while, she rushed back with a group of Ye family warriors. However, when she returned to the small pharmacy, she saw a mess with corpses everywhere. Xiao Yan was leaning against the wall with blood all over his body, his eyes closed, and he looked seriously injured and dying.
"Teacher!" Seeing Xiao Yan's seriously injured appearance, Ye Lingyu quickly wanted to take out the healing medicine from the Najie to apply it to him, but after searching for a long time, she could only take out the medicine she had spent this time practicing. The scrapped products were produced, "Does any of you have healing medicine? Take it out quickly!"
"Xiaoyu..." At this moment, Xiao Yan "struggled" to open his eyes and showed an extremely forced smile. He reached out his hand, gently touched Ye Lingyu's hair and said, "You are back. …”
While pretending to be seriously injured and on the verge of death, Xiao Yan couldn't help but give himself a thumbs up in his heart. With his acting skills, if he had been in his previous life, he would have been able to hold the Little Golden Man's hand softly. He coughed a few times. He made a sound, and then very weakly took off one of his Nai rings, placed it on Ye Lingyu's palm, and said: "This is the teacher's life collection, and I will give it to you now. You have to keep it well for me... …”
