Chapter 74 Six More Times
As time went by, looking at the sweat rolling down the old man's face and the bulging veins on his arms, Nalan Su's eyes revealed some anxiety and uneasiness.

Ignoring the uneasy father-in-law in the room, Xiao Jue's face remained calm. The fingers that touched Nalan Jie's back trembled slightly. The faint black and white flames were constantly wrapped by the power of the soul, and then carefully rushed into the latter's body, gradually using high temperature to expel the poison that had invaded his bones.

Black and white flames wrapped around the black bones. Although the two seemed to be tightly attached, if one looked carefully, one could find that there was a very tiny gap between them. The temperature of the strange fire was too terrifying. If it came into direct contact with Nalan Jie's bones, even if the other party was a Dou Wang warrior, he would definitely be seriously injured or even die in an instant!
The scorching heat seeped out from the flames and slowly smoked the blackened bones.

As the black and white flames continued to smoke, wisps of black mist quietly emanated from the bones, and then before escaping, they were swiftly pounced on and wrapped by a cluster of black and white flames.

Using the terrifying high temperature, the poisonous mist, which even the Douhuang strongmen had to treat with seriousness, was gradually smoked into nothingness.

However, when Xiao Jue used the strange fire to burn the black mist, he did not notice that at the moment when the black mist was about to evaporate, some black inexplicable things were slowly mixed with the black and white flames, and then completely subsided.

As time passed quietly, the piece of black bone wrapped in Xiao Jue's black and white flames was gradually returning to normal color at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Outside, Nalan Jie's entire body was soaked with sweat. His old face kept twitching, and the sound of him gasping for air leaked out from between his teeth.

"Little...little brother, okay, are you okay?" Nalan Jie's fists were clenched tightly, and the blue veins on his arms were bulging like little snakes. His voice was a little hoarse and trembling.

"Why are you in such a hurry? It's only the beginning. With the fifth-grade recovery pill, there won't be any danger." Xiao Jue asked, "Could it be that the rebellious Marshal Lionheart can't help himself?"

"What's the pain?" Nalan Jie gritted his teeth and said, "Why would I be afraid of pain? I just want to know how long it will last."

"It will be done soon." Xiao Jue said playfully, "It will probably take more than an hour."

Nalan Jie's eyes suddenly turned black, and he tried hard not to faint. However, with the continuous treatment, Nalan Jie gradually began to wail, but it also proved that he was out of danger.

While Nalan Su breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help laughing. His father had been a rebellious person all his life, and he never expected that there would be a day when he would be hurt so much that he would wail.

"call!"

Xiao Jue slowly exhaled a breath of foul air and took the Yin and Yang flames back into his body. Nalan Jie also fell on the bed and passed out. The brand poison in his body was completely removed by Xiao Jue, and because of the recovery pill he took, his body continued to recover.

The yin and yang flames in his body erupted violently, completely refining the poison that was integrated into the strange fire. At the same time, he obtained a wisp of Dou Qi from Nalan Jie. It was a pity that Xiao Jue was already a Dou Ling, and these Dou Qi could not help him break through to one star.

"The poison in the old man's body has been completely removed." Xiao Jue said, "It's just that the progress was too fast, and he couldn't bear it. He will be fine after being unconscious for a while. With the help of the recovery pill, he will be fine when he wakes up."

"Thank you very much, nephew Xiao Jue." Nalan Su bowed to Xiao Jue with a serious expression. "The Nalan family will remember this great favor in our hearts. If you need anything in the future, we will definitely do our best to help you."

Xiao Jue waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's okay. Nalan Yanran and I met in Yancheng not long ago. What happened back then was just the result of our youthful recklessness. But the three-year agreement has been made, and there must be a conclusion."

When Xiao Jue left the room, the alchemists were still there, including Ya Fei. A white-haired elder approached and said respectfully, "Mr. Xiao Jue, we are willing to exchange our entire fortune for the seed of the strange fire. Could you please…"

"Get lost!" Xiao Jue said coldly, "Are you worthy enough to covet the strange fire?"

If he just casually gave a seed fire to someone else, then what kind of help would he have given to Xiao Yan?
Xiao Jue looked at Nalan Su who came out of the room and said, "Uncle Nalan, please see the guest off."

Nalan Su gently asked these alchemists to leave the Nalan family. Xiao Jue held Ya Fei's hand and said, "Uncle Nalan, the poison in the old man's body has been removed. Ya Fei and I will take our leave."

"My nephew Xiao Jue, why don't you stay at the Nalan family?" Nalan Su persuaded him, "Our two families are old friends. Since you have come to the imperial capital, your uncle should entertain you."

"I'll come visit my uncle and the old man again in a few days." Xiao Jue said, "I have some things to deal with in the capital, so I can't stay long."

"Then I'll give it to you."

Nalan Su sent Xiao Jue and Ya Fei out of the Nalan residence. On the way back, Xiao Jue held Ya Fei's hand. Ya Fei tilted her head and asked, "How is the branding poison in the old man's body?"

"Of course it's completely resolved." Xiao Jue smiled and said, "I just happened to be going to the Miter family to meet with the Ice Emperor and Great Elder Tengshan. I plan to discuss alchemy with President Fa Ma before the Alchemist Conference begins to determine who will be the number one alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire."

Ya Fei asked in surprise: "What rank of alchemist are you now?"

Xiao Jue smiled and said, "Well...just treat me as a sixth-grade alchemist."

Although he is a fifth-grade alchemist, Yao Lao and Xiao Yan will come to the imperial capital soon. There is only one month left before the three-year agreement. By then, he can use the heavenly-level fighting skill Ghost Possession and borrow Yao Lao's soul power instead of fighting spirit to refine sixth-grade pills.

Xiao Jue's soul power and alchemy skills have reached the conditions for refining sixth-grade elixirs, but his fighting spirit is a little insufficient. Although he practices low-level earth-level skills, he is only a three-star fighting spirit, and his fighting spirit is not enough to refine sixth-grade elixirs.

"Let's do it six more times tonight." Ya Fei narrowed her beautiful eyes and hugged Xiao Jue's arm.

Arriving at the Mitel family, Yafei took Xiao Jue directly to a small courtyard deep inside the Mitel family, where two old men were sitting and drinking tea.

"Hmm?" Seeing someone walk in, they all raised their heads at the same time. Hai Bodong immediately said in surprise, "Brother Xiao Jue, you've finally come to the imperial capital."

"Young friend Xiao Jue, long time no see." Mitel Tengshan also stood up to greet him, with a hint of shock in his eyes.

When Hai Bodong said that he had received help from a sixth-grade alchemist named Xiao Jue, the other party also mentioned Ya Fei. Mitel Tengshan didn't dare to believe it at the time, but now it seems that in just two years, Xiao Jue has grown into a sixth-grade alchemist!
