Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 66 Appearance
Three days later, at noon
Xiao Yan went to the Mitel Auction House again, deposited the remaining batch of Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid, and instructed Ya Fei to bid twice a week to achieve better publicity effects.

Although the inferior version of the foundation-building spirit liquid was not as powerful, it had a unique effect and was priced suitable for the upper-class nobles in Wutan City to purchase, and for a time it became the focus of everyone's attention.

Galenu repeatedly bid high prices for the spiritual liquid in an attempt to gain more opportunities to contact the mysterious alchemist.

Unfortunately, Xiao Yan was completely unaware of this. Even if he knew, he would probably only sneer at this person's stupidity.

After storing the foundation-building spiritual liquid, he rushed to the woods outside Wutan City on time, intending to start refining the next batch of foundation-building spiritual liquid.

Arriving at the familiar woods, Xiao Yan's gaze couldn't help but turn to the small open window, and his original intention to improve his alchemy skills suddenly disappeared.

On the inside of the small window, the girl holds her cheek with one hand, and the scattered sunlight shines through the window lattice onto her loose hair. The ancient books on the table are slowly turning, revealing a unique intellectual beauty.

Not long after, the sound of an ancient book closing startled Xiao Yan awake. Hun Ruoruo raised the corners of her lips slightly and said in a delicate voice, "Third Young Master has been sneaking into my room a lot recently, right? Why did you just stand there at the door today?"

".Sorry, I just want to borrow that wooden table to make medicine."

Xiao Yan smiled awkwardly and couldn't help but touch his nose.

Although I really didn't have any bad intentions, it was still inappropriate to break into a girl's room without permission.

Hun Ruoruo had already communicated with Yao Lao about the fluctuations of the Void Devouring Flame, and naturally knew the other party's purpose of refining medicine outside the city, so she didn't dwell on it too much.

She stretched out her charming body and walked out of the room slowly. She looked Xiao Yan up and down, and then said slowly: "You should have felt the benefits of the special training earlier, right?"

"The benefits of special training are indeed far beyond my imagination. However, this makes me even more confused. Although Canaan Academy is good, its teaching ability should not be as good as you and your teacher."

Xiao Yan's gaze unconsciously lingered on the girl's beautiful curves. He turned his head slightly and immediately asked the question in his mind.

Suddenly, Yao Lao's voice came from the ring: "I'm asking you to go to Canaan College not for the educational resources there, but because of the fourteenth-ranked Fallen Heart Flame."

"There's a unique training ground within Canaan Academy called the Skyburning Refining Qi Tower. It's said that it allows practitioners to significantly accelerate their training under the scorching heat of flames. This is quite close to the description of the Fallen Heart Flame."

"So that's how it is. Canaan College is actually related to the strange fire."

Seeing Xiao Yan's delight, Hun Ruoruo reminded him, "The power of Canaan Academy cannot be underestimated. Therefore, the matter of the Fallen Heart Flame can only be resolved by you and Yao Lao."

She had considered helping Xiao Yan obtain the Fallen Heart Flame, but because his strength was too obvious, joining Canaan Academy would inevitably face many obstacles, so she did not put it into action.

Naturally, she was unwilling to do something that was too difficult and thankless.

After hearing Hun Ruoruo's words, Xiao Yan pondered for a moment, then said uncertainly, "Ruoruo, if you joined Canaan College as a special recruit, would you still have such concerns?"

Special Enrollment

Hun Ruoruo had never heard of the novel term "specially recruited students." After a brief mental consideration, she hooked her finger at Xiao Yan and asked with great interest, "Can you tell me more?"

Wutan City, Xiao Family
Xiao Ning was standing at the gate with several Xiao family guards. He looked a little lazy, but he didn't dare to move his body.

He looked up at the sun hanging high in the sky and couldn't help but grit his teeth and thought to himself, "That little bastard Xiao Yan actually caused my grandfather to punish me by making me stand guard. I'm so embarrassed among my peers!"

Ever since being defeated by Xiao Yan, who was a higher level opponent, even though Xiao Ning constantly consoled himself by saying that Xiao Yan had only won by taking advantage of the situation, an indelible shadow was still left in his heart.

Originally, Xiao Ning had planned to use all his means to reverse his decline during the coming-of-age test. However, to his despair, in just six months, Xiao Yan had become a fighter, leaving him with no courage to challenge him.
Under multiple blows, his cultivation stopped at the eighth stage of fighting spirit, and he has not made any progress so far. After the Great Elder learned about this, he was furious and sent Xiao Ning to guard the gate for two months to allow him to temper his character.

Just when Xiao Ning's eyes were wandering and he was feeling irritated, his gaze inadvertently swept across the corner of the street in the distance.

I saw a woman in a white Taoist robe and wearing a conical hat, led by Xiao Yan, walking slowly towards the gate of the Xiao family.

"Cousin Xiao Yan, please stay for a moment. Please ask the girl next to you to take off her hat." Although he was a little afraid in his heart, Xiao Ning relied on his current status as a guard and gritted his teeth and walked forward, putting on a routine appearance.

"Cousin Xiao Ning, I haven't seen you for a few months. Why are you here as a guard?" Xiao Yan had a smile on his face, completely ignoring the difficulty in the other party's words.

"With my identity as a guarantee, there shouldn't be anything to check, right?"

"Haha. Cousin Xiao Yan, you don't know that recently due to the upcoming test at Canaan Academy, a large number of strangers have flocked into Wutan City. I, your cousin, am just doing my routine work." Xiao Ning said with a forced smile and quickly winked at the guards beside him.

The guards on the side didn't dare to offend either side, so they had to tell the truth: "Third Young Master, this rule was indeed set by the head of the family a few days ago."

"I'm sorry for making this difficult for you two."

Hun Ruoruo suddenly spoke, and she gently took off her hat, revealing her pure and beautiful face. Her long sea-blue hair fluttered in the wind, and her indifferent and otherworldly temperament made the surrounding light seem to dim a little.

"Mr. Xiao and I are both teachers and friends. I came here to discuss some matters with Patriarch Xiao. I apologize for any inconvenience."

Seeing the true face of the Taoist robe woman, Xiao Ning's eyes almost popped out of his head. He stammered for a long time before finally saying something.

"Oh, so you're looking for Patriarch Xiao. This, of course, is no problem."

Nodding slightly, Hun Ruoruo took light lotus steps and followed Xiao Yan's steps slowly towards the Xiao Mansion.

When they were farther away, Xiao Yan suddenly whispered to Hun Ruoruo, "Ruoruo, it seems Xiao Ning is still staring at you."

"Hehe, I just secretly placed a soul mark on my body. If someone is staring at me for a long time, they will have dreams and wake up the next day with a splitting headache and bloodshot eyes."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but take a deep breath and quickly shifted his gaze away from the girl's delicate body.
