Cousin Xiao Yan, see you tomorrow!

Good night, Brother Xiao Yan.

As evening fell, Xiao Yan returned to the Xiao Clan with Xiao Mei and Xiao Xuner. Watching the two little girls disappear into the distance, he couldnt help but smile bitterly.

Accompanying these two little girls for shopping was really difficult, its more tiring than any physical training he had done.

Xiao Yan returned to his room with a bag of herbs and closed the door. Yao Chen immediately appeared.

Although this place is small, the clothes are quite nice. If it werent for my current appearance, I would like to buy a few pieces, said Yao Chen.

If Senior Yao wants them, Xiao Yan can get them for you later. Maybe you can wear them in the future, replied Xiao Yan.

I hope so.

As they chatted, Yao Chen waved his hand and the bag of herbs flew into the air. The herbs emerged one by one from the bag, and Yao Chens hand produced a strand of pale white flame, which surprised Xiao Yan.

Although it was a flame, other than the intense heat, it also exuded a bone-chilling coldness.

Senior Yao, Xiao Yan pointed to the white flame and asked curiously, Are all Alchemists flames like this?

Are you kidding me? Yao Chen rolled his eyes at Xiao Yans question. This is the rare and Heavenly Flame that I risked my life to obtain. If everyone had this thing, we would all be losing out.

Heavenly Flame?

Hearing this unfamiliar term, Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows. Yao Chen explained slowly.

Its a flame thats born between heaven and earth, its collectively known as Heavenly Flames, and they are what all Alchemists dream of. There are currently only twenty-three known types. Yao Chen briefly introduced the Heavenly Flames and then turned his gaze to the herbs in the air. Well, Ill explain more about them later. Its pointless to talk about them now.

The pale white flame in Yao Chens hand shot towards the herbs in the air. Then, in Xiao Yans amazed gaze, the Purple Leaf Orchid, Bone Washing Flower, and the first-grade wood-attribute monster core were burned into a liquid state, converged and fused together in mid-air, and finally became a green liquid.

And thats not all, Yao Chen continued to use the flame r to refine the green liquid, and as time passed, the liquid became smaller and smaller, finally condensing into a drop of jade-colored liquid.

In that instant, Xiao Yans soul perception made him keenly aware of the abundant energy contained in the jade-colored liquid.

This isalchemy

Looking at Xiao Yans eyes full of admiration, Yao Chen also looked proud and tilted his head, her elegant and white jade neck catching Xiao Yans attention and momentarily leaving him stunned.

But it was only for a moment, and Xiao Yan quickly shook his head to dispel the distraction, then pointed to the drop of jade-colored liquid in mid-air.

Senior Yao, is it finished?

It seems so fast

Seeing through Xiao Yans thoughts, Yao Chen calmly replied, To be precise, this doesnt even count as an entry-level in alchemy, its just roughly mixing the materials together. It doesnt take much effort. Real alchemy takes much more time. Its common to sit in front of the cauldron for several days and nights to refine a pill.

As Yao Chen spoke, she lightly curled her jade finger, and the emerald green liquid flew into the glass bottle that Xiao Yan had prepared in advance.

Xiao Yan picked up the glass bottle and examined it for a while, then looked at Yao Chen and asked, Senior Yao, how do I use this?

Go get a basin of water, melt this Foundation Building Elixir into it, and immerse your body in the water to cultivate. It can greatly enhance your cultivation speed. Yao Chen held her arms and chuckled, By the way, theres one more thing. This Foundation Building Elixir was originally enough for two months, but your physique is quite special, and we estimate that this drop may not even last for a month. Remember to buy another batch of the same medicinal materials when the time comes.

Upon hearing Yao Chens words, Xiao Yans face immediately turned bitter.

Only a month

Whats wrong? Not satisfied? Yao Chen lightly raised her eyebrows, The Foundation Building Elixir is our unique recipe. Even if you want to spend money, theres nowhere to find it in the entire Jia Ma Empire. Do you have any objections?

No Xiao Yan awkwardly scratched his face, Its just that Im worried about the money

Just this batch of medicinal materials had already depleted almost half of his savings, and the demon core was a gift from Ya Fei, so he didnt spend any money on it. Where was he going to find so much money to buy more in a months time?

Thats not our concern. You have to solve the issue of the medicinal materials yourself. We only care about refining the medicine~ Yao Chen shrugged her shoulders, looking like it had nothing to do with her.

Indeed, that was the case. When requesting an alchemists help to refine medicine, it was customary to provide the medicinal materials oneself.

Xiao Yan silently looked at the Foundation Building Elixir in his hand, suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and looked at Yao Chen and asked, Senior Yao, can I sell this?

Sell? Yao Chen was first stunned, then immediately understood, lightly stroking her beautiful chin and responded, This is what I gave you, you can use it as you wish. But if you really want to sell it, you can just find some materials that are slightly inferior. After refining them, you can still sell them and earn even more.

Ah lets forget about that method.

Xiao Yan smiled and refused Yao Chens proposal, causing Yao Chens eyebrows to slightly furrow.

I have to say, youre too

As Yao Chen spoke, he abruptly stopped and looked at Xiao Yans young face.

The wrong person was clearly Xiao Yan.

On this continent, one should prioritize oneself, and this is the correct mindset on this continent.

Compared to those who betray their belief and morality for power, selling rough and shoddy goods is already quite humane.

But looking at Xiao Yan in front of him, Yao Chen didnt know how to reprimand him.

Should she, as his teacher, teach her disciple how to deceive and harm others to gain the maximum benefit?

Default rules do not necessarily mean they can be brought to the table to speak out.

No matter how shameless the things she does are, she still cares about her own face.

This is what those so-called strong people do.

Do whatever you want.

In the end, Yao Chen gave up persuading him. Xiao Yan, who had obtained permission, smiled lightly and pulled out a cloak from the cabinet, covering himself from head to toe, and secretly left the Xiao Clan with the Foundation Building Elixir.

Xiao Yan walked through the market and arrived at the entrance of the Miteer Auction House. The gatekeeper became alert when he saw this suspicious-looking person and stopped him.

Sir, may I ask what business you have here?

Im here to commission a sale.

Xiao Yan deliberately lowered his voice and said six words briefly.

The more one speaks, the more flaws they reveal, and saying one less word can reduce the risk of exposure.

Although Xiao Yan pursued the righteous path, he was not stubborn. He deeply understood the consequences of harboring a Foundation Building Elixir, and he did not want to bring unnecessary trouble to the Xiao Clan because of it. hence It was necessary to hide his identity.

After examining Xiao Yan for a while, the guards replied, Please wait.

Then, the guard looked at his companion and nodded. The companion went into the auction house and came out shortly after, gesturing towards Xiao Yan.

Please follow me.

Xiao Yan followed the guard into the auction house, where he saw Ya Fei coming up to him with a professional smile on her face.

Is this the gentleman who wants to consign an item for auction?

As soon as she finished speaking, Ya Feis expression changed slightly, and she looked towards the guard who had brought Xiao Yan in.

You can leave now.

Eh? But

The guard was in a dilemma. He didnt want to leave such a secretive figure alone with Ya Fei. If something went wrong, he wouldnt have enough brains to deal with it!

This gentleman is an acquaintance of mine. You dont have to worry about him harming me.

The four words an acquaintance of mine made Xiao Yan suddenly shocked, and his mind began to whirl wildly.

Exposed? Did I get exposed?

It shouldnt be I havent revealed any flaws

While Xiao Yan was constantly examining himself in his heart, the guard was persuaded by Ya Fei to leave, leaving only Xiao Yan and Ya Fei in the room.

So~ Ya Fei slowly turned around, looking at Xiao Yan with a smile that was not a smile, Its already late and you came to find me. Did you want to have a secret rendezvous encounter with sister Ya Fei, Little~ brother~ Xiao~ Yan~?

Smack!

Xiao Yan immediately slapped himself in the face.

I was exposed
