As Xiao Yan walked out of the corridor, he accidentally met with Ao Tuo's group who had been waiting for a while. Some of them smiled and chatted a little. During this time, Xue Mei injected a few sentences and the gaze she used to see on Xiao Yan was rather strange. Lin Fei, on the other hand stuttered and did not dare to speak much. Every time Xiao Yan averted his gaze, his face would turn red. The appearance of Xiao Yan a while ago had shocked this energetic girl once again. The original idol in his heart, Liu Ling, was secretly kicked to the side. What replaced him was the quiet and thin back of the young man.
Not long after Xiao Yan conversed with Xue Mei and the others, Ao Tuo forcefully ended their conversation. After which, he led Xiao Yan out of the square and quickly returned to the association. He arranged a quiet room for Xiao Yan, letting Xiao Yan adjust his condition first. This was because Xiao Yan's pale complexion was weak to the point of scaring people.
Xiao Yan stared at the door of the room that had been closed and could only shake his head helplessly. He looked at his hand which contained the green-colored medicinal pill that Ao Tuo had inserted towards him. Based on the luster of the medicinal pill, it was at least level three. It seemed that Xiao Yan's victory this time did indeed make Ao Tuo very happy. This grade medicinal pill could be considered extremely valuable to him. Right now, however, he easily handed it back.
As soon as he sat cross-legged on the soft bed, Xiao Yan took the medicinal pill in his hand and put it into his mouth. He sensed the pure energy that was rapidly spreading within his body and slowly closed his eyes, starting to recover his soul.
Although he forcefully supported himself, the examination this time did exhaust all of Xiao Yan's strength. The consumption of his Spiritual Strength when he changed between the three types of flames was indeed too great. If not for this previous condition being excellent, it was likely that Xiao Yan would have fainted from the total exhaustion of his Spiritual Strength before he could finish turning the flame twice.
In an instant, over five hours had passed as he recuperated. When Xiao Yan finally woke up from his training mode and glanced at the unlocked window, he realized that the sun, which was originally hanging high in the air, was actually going to descend beyond the horizon. The warm air also slowly turned cold.
Xiao Yan slowly exhaled and rubbed his forehead. He felt fatigue and sleepiness coming out of his mind. He's a little surprised. Initially, he thought that he would need at least one day to recover half of his energy. It was unexpected that he had almost fully recovered during these five hours. This was definitely the effect of the medicinal pill Ao Tuo had given him.
Xiao Yan placed his palm on the bed and used a bit of strength. His body jumped forwards in an instant and continued to land on the ground. He then patted his hands gently, feeling satisfied with his recovery speed.
"crackling"
Not long after Xiao Yan got off the bed, the door of the room opened gently. Xiao Yan raised his head to look, only to see a delicate and beautiful young lady wearing a trainee alchemist robe carefully walking over while carrying a basin filled with clear water.
"Mr Yan Xiao, grandmaster Ao Tuo has instructed me to take care of you here .." The young lady was only about fourteen or fifteen years old. He had a very small body, but the alchemist's tight robe revealed his slender waist and somewhat bulging chest. Even though he was immature, he had a uniqueness about her.
Right now, her delicate, beautiful, small face was a little shy and flushed. Scorching heat flashed across his bright eyes as he looked at Xiao Yan. Previously, when he had no job, he had secretly gone to watch the Grand Meeting competition. Naturally, he had clearly seen Xiao Yan defeat Yan Li and turn things around, changing the final outcome of the entire Grand Meeting. In the hearts of the young women at this age, Xiao Yan was undoubtedly their hero and idol in their hearts. Although her face looked a little ordinary, it was filled with charm when they saw her now.
The young girl's heart surged in excitement when she was suddenly ordered by Ao Tuo to guard this place. This was especially the case when he recalled the envious gazes from his friends. The temperature of his hot eyes once again rose.
" Cough ..." Xiao Yan coughed as he was stared at by a young girl in a hot manner. When he recovered, he smiled as he received the basin. "Thank you, but I can do it myself."
Oh. Although she felt a little regret in her heart, the young girl did not dare to refuse. He obediently handed over the basin and stood to the side with his gaze staring at Xiao Yan without blinking.
Xiao Yan actually felt very uncomfortable being stared at as he bathed. Therefore, he simply wiped his face randomly a few times before asking in a somewhat helpless manner, "Young Miss …"
"I I'm called Xun-er." The young lady said with a red face.
(TL: This Xun-er is not Xun Er from the Xiao clan)
Xiao Yan smiled bitterly, but he simply asked, "Miss Xun-er, can you take me to see Chairman Fa Ma now?"
"Ah. Please follow me." The satisfied little girl replied sharply before turning around and leading from the front.
As soon as they left the room, Xiao Yan followed behind the young girl. The associate alchemist who occasionally passed by him, would stop and give a friendly smile to the former. By the time the stairs became narrow, many alchemists would even take the initiative to give way. Being treated so courteously caused Xiao Yan to be a little uncomfortable.
"Master Yan Xiao, you really enjoy great prestige. Normally, those people would frown when they saw us, let alone give way to us "As they once again walked through the corridor, the young girl in front of him could not help but laugh softly.
Xiao Yan smiled at the somewhat saucy words of the young girl. The world is realistic. Respect and respect are forever left to those who have the ability to enjoy it. Before this, he had also not received such treatment when he came to the alchemist association, right?
"Thank you Miss Xun-er." Xiao Yan nodded and smiled as he spoke.
"No need ..." The young girl smiled sweetly and turned around. He had taken a few steps when he suddenly turned around again and said with a smile again, "Master Yan Xiao, you are really handsome today .. hee hee, goodbye."
Xiao Yan was puzzled as he looked at the young girl, whose hands were behind his back, jumping around like a deer as she disappeared at the end of the corridor. Immediately, he smiled and shook his head. It seemed that Grand Meeting had garnered considerable popularity for him. Even this seemingly ordinary face could actually cause the young girl to have feelings of romance on him but it was a pity that this identity and name were wrong.
Xiao Yan withdrew his gaze and thoughts before he lightly knocked on the door. He waited for Fa Ma's voice to be emitted from within before he opened the door and entered.
As soon as he entered the room, Fa Ma, Hai Bo Dong, and Jia Lao, who were sitting by the side of the table, involuntarily threw a smile at Xiao Yan when they saw that it was him.
Little boy, congratulations. As they saw Xiao Yan enter, the three groups of Fa Ma men cupped their hands towards him.
"You all need to stop mocking me." Xiao Yan slowly walked forward and spoke with a bitter smile, "This affair almost took away my little life."
Ke ke's. Fa Ma laughed softly. He did not say anything unnecessary as his palm stroked the storage ring in his hand. Immediately, a purple-silver colored scroll appeared on his palm. Xiao Yan's palm slowly rubbed the scroll and he said with a smile, "With effort comes reward. This is the medicinal formula for tier six medicinal pills, ‘Pil Spirit Defrost’. Little boy, from now on, it's yours. "
As he spoke, Fa Ma flicked his finger at the scroll. The scroll turned into a silver-colored shadow that shot towards Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan was slightly excited as he received the scroll. He could not help but play it in his hand. The scroll was purple and silver in color and had an ice-cold feeling when held. On the surface of the scrolls were bright and clean, there were some intricate ancient lines and marks, giving an aesthetic impression when one looked at it. Xiao Yan carefully held the scroll and slowly pulled it open. He roughly looked at the information written on the scroll and realized that what was written there was no different from what Ao Tuo had told him. Only then did he sigh in relief.
"I advise you not to use your Spiritual Strength to read the medicinal formula here. If not, you will pass out. Even if it was me, a tier six medicinal formula was something that would make me dizzy for quite a while after reading it. " Fa Ma reminded as he looked at Xiao Yan's excited demeanor.
"Ke Ke, I know." Xiao Yan nodded his head and carefully placed the medicinal formula for the ‘Liquefaction Spirit Pill into his storage ring. When he raised his head, he saw Fa Ma hand over a piece of purple-colored metal plate and could not help feeling uncertain.
"This is a gift for the honorary elders of the association and also a kind of prize for the champion. If you take this token, you can get help from any branch of the association in the Jia Ma Empire. " Fa Ma smiled and said, "I know that you don't like to be limited by any position. This so-called honorary elder doesn't need you to do anything. It's just a hanging title. As long as you want, you can ignore the delivery of anyone, including me. "
Xiao Yan nodded slightly before accepting the token in passing.
"Well, little friend, you've got the prize. Next, you can wander around the association or the capital. Although the Grand Meeting was over, the capital would be quite crowded for quite some time. You are also a famous person now. If you are going out, people who want to get acquainted with you may have to queue out of this city. Ha ha." Fa Ma seduces.
Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly. His gaze swept over the three of them as he suddenly asked, "You .... what are you planning to do?"
"Ke ke" Hai Bodong smiled and exchanged glances with Fa Ma and Jia Lao. He then smiled and said, "Furthermore, we plan to go and find Yan Li's friend to discuss the price to pay for breaking the rules of the Great Meeting …"
"The pathetic man who was destined to never come back." Xiao Yan spread his hand. He had not expected Yan Li to be able to escape alive from the hands of the three people of Fa Ma's group.
"Since the three of you have to make a promise, I won't hold you back. I also have a few things to do. Goodbye "Xiao Yan cupped his hands to the three people. He did not stay any longer as he turned around and walked out of the room.
"Ke Ke, let's go for these two days, I've been angered by that guy. Now, it's time to pay. " As he looked at Xiao Yan's missing back, Fa Ma stood up from his chair and spoke with a cold smile.
Hai Bodong smiled and stood up. The three of them exchanged looks. As their bodies trembled slightly, a strong wind suddenly blew from within the room. The wind blew the books everywhere as they let out a swish sound (books flying around). When everything finally settled down, the three people in the room were nowhere to be found.
