Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

What this means is not that no one in Wutan City can afford it, the main problem is that no one will spend such a high price to buy it.

In the final analysis, it is just to increase the speed of practicing Dou Qi. Although it is rare, a small place like Wutan City does not have that much spare money to spend on this thing.

On the contrary, the powerful families in the more prosperous cities not only have the ability to afford it, but also would be very fond of it, especially those with younger generations at home.

So Ya Fei suggested sending the item to a more prosperous city for auction, and Xiao Yan said that it would be entirely up to Ya Fei to decide.

Today, a week has passed and there has been no news from Yafei.

Xiao Yan was not in a hurry. He knew Ya Fei's character and was sure she would not lie to him.

Since you believe in someone, you should believe in him to the end.

By the way, Galeo, who had a life-and-death duel with Xiao Yan that day, is now very famous in Wutan City.

It’s a pity that they are of completely opposite natures.

The duel that day was passed on by word of mouth among the spectators and was known to everyone in Wutan City.

The twenty-one-year-old one-star fighter was knocked unable to get up by Xiao Yan, who was fifteen years old and had the third level of fighting power, with just two moves.

People naturally wouldn't believe that Xiao Yan was too strong, so they all thought that Galeo was too weak and started to laugh at him.

A fighter can't even beat a useless guy with only three levels of fighting power. How useless are you?

This also resulted in Galeo not even leaving the house this week. He had already lost all face in the city of Wutan, so how could he dare to wander around the streets?

"Yan'er."

Just as Xiao Yan was concentrating on supervising the training of the Xiao family's children, Xiao Zhan walked into the yard and greeted his beloved son softly.

"Father."

Xiao Yan walked forward and Xiao Zhan said with his hands behind his back.

"Miss Yafei has something to talk to you about. She is waiting at the door of the Xiao family." After saying that, Xiao Zhan raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Xiao Yan teasingly, "Son, I have always felt that Miss Yafei's attitude towards you is very special. Could it be that she has taken a fancy to you?"

"Don't be ridiculous, father." Xiao Yan smiled and waved his hand, "She is the future heir of the Milt family. How can I be worthy of her?"

"Everything depends on human effort. Why don't you try harder?"

Xiao Yan did not reply, but just waved his hand lightly, walked past Xiao Zhan towards the Xiao family's gate, and left a word for Xiao Zhan before leaving.

"Father, please help me supervise for a while, I will be back soon."

Looking at his son's back, Xiao Zhan's eyes were full of relief.

My son is truly perfect except for his strength. How can he be compared to that playboy from the Galie family?

He was already a one-star fighter, but he was beaten to the point where he couldn't get up by his own son. It was a disgrace to his father.

Then Xiao Zhan looked at the Xiao family members who were training. Since Xiao Yan took over the position of coach, Xiao Zhan had basically not taken care of this aspect. Now that he was in a rare mood, he came to the front of the Xiao family members, raised one hand and chuckled.

"Children, the patriarch is here to practice combat with you~"

On the other side, Xiao Yan arrived at the gate of the Xiao family and saw Ya Fei standing there elegantly in a red dress.

I have to say that Yafei is really a natural born fairy. If Yao Chen is breathtakingly beautiful, then Yafei's inherent charm makes it difficult for people to control themselves.

Xiao Yan shook his head lightly and walked forward to greet Ya Fei.

"Sister Yafei, long time no see~"

"Long time no see, Brother Xiao Yan."

Seeing Xiao Yan, Ya Fei's lips curled up slightly in a charming smile, which made Xiao Yan's heart tremble again, and then Ya Fei continued.

"That bottle of foundation building spirit liquid has been sold." Ya Fei took out a black gold card and handed it to Xiao Yan, "After deducting the proceeds from the auction house, the total is 230,000."

"Forehead?!"

Hearing this number, Xiao Yan was suddenly stunned and could not believe his ears.

"How much more?!"

"You heard it right~ Brother Xiao Yan, that's 230,000~"

Seeing the stunned Xiao Yan, Ya Fei opened and closed her red lips to confirm again. Xiao Yan then slowly came back to his senses and couldn't help smacking his lips inwardly.

Oh my goodness. One bottle of this stuff can be sold for two hundred and thirty thousand, considering the cost is less than two thousand.

No wonder everyone wants to become an alchemist, the profits are so huge.

"Haha~ The price was set at 100,000 at the time, but those powerful families liked it more than I thought. Even I was a little surprised by the profit."

Ya Fei smiled and handed the black gold card to Xiao Yan, and also put down a storage ring.

"Sister Yafei, what is this?"

Looking at the storage ring, Xiao Yan stared at Ya Fei in a daze.

Ya Fei put her index finger in front of her red lips, narrowed one eye and smiled.

"Brother, since you trust me so much, I will naturally give you some benefits. Just accept them with confidence~"

"."

Xiao Yan looked at the ring in his hand for a long time, and finally looked at Ya Fei.

"Since Sister Yafei has said so, Xiao Yan will be betraying Sister Yafei's friendship if he refuses. I will accept the gift. If Sister Yafei needs help in the future, Xiao Yan will do his best as long as he can do it!"

Just as he finished speaking, Ya Fei's enchanting face came in front of Xiao Yan.

"You said this, brother Xiao Yan~"

"Forehead"

Xiao Yan was stunned, and then Ya Fei spoke.

"Sister, I need a few Qi Gathering Powders. The necessary herbs have been put into the storage ring. I can definitely help you, right~"

"."

Xiao Yan was stunned for a long time, and finally gave a bitter smile.

"Is it really okay for Sister Yafei to cheat her brother like this?"

"You agreed to this yourself. I didn't force you to do it~"

After saying that, Ya Fei slightly turned sideways and waved gently to Xiao Yan.

"Then I'll go back first and wait for your good news~"

Looking at Ya Fei's graceful back gradually moving away, Xiao Yan patted his head helplessly.

This sister.

(Senior Yao, may I trouble you?) Xiao Yan asked in his heart, and then added, (If you are unwilling, I will refuse immediately.)

Xiao Yan knew very well in his heart that the person who refined the medicine was Yao Chen. To agree to Ya Fei's request without authorization was tantamount to using his teacher as a tool, which was a very rebellious act.

In response to this, Yao Chen also responded in Xiao Yan's heart.

(It doesn't matter. Favors always need to be owed. Instead of owing it to outsiders, it's better to owe it to your teacher.) Yao Chen said nonchalantly, (It's just Qi Gathering Powder. It won't take much effort for us. As long as there are enough materials, we can refine it for you and eat it as beans.)

Hearing this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but be speechless.

Even if I want to eat them as beans, I don't have that much money now. With the 230,000 yuan in this card, I'm afraid I can't even eat a few beans.

Xiao Yan put away the black gold card and the storage ring, turned around and walked towards the training ground. He said that they could talk about it in the evening. Today's training was not over yet, and as a supervisor, he could not leave for too long.

When Xiao Yan just walked to the gate of the training ground, he saw his father Xiao Zhan walking out with a slightly gloomy face, and his clothes were slightly torn and dusty.

The moment he saw Xiao Yan, Xiao Zhan's eyes lit up and he immediately rushed forward, grabbed his son's shoulders and asked in a stern voice.

"Yan'er! What's wrong with these kids?!"

Chapter 16 Helpless and Envious

Looking at his slightly disheveled old father in front of him, Xiao Yan tilted his head in confusion.

"Father, what are you talking about?"

"These are the Xiao family members whose training you supervised! Their combat skills are too outrageous!"

Xiao Zhan grabbed Xiao Yan's shoulders and rocked him back and forth, his eyes filled with shock.

Everyone in Wutan City knew that Jialebi's son Jialeo was defeated by Xiao Yan, and Xiao Zhan naturally heard about it as well.

At that time, he was still discussing this matter with the three elders with a smile. Regardless of Galeo's character, he was at least a fighter. However, he couldn't even beat his own son who had the third level of fighting power. He was really useless.

However, just now, after Xiao Zhan finished the practical training with the Xiao family members, he was completely stunned.

What the hell are these little brats?

Obviously, none of them are even fighters, so it should be OK for the great fighter Xiao Zhan to be their sparring partner.

However, the actual situation was that Xiao Zhan felt unimaginable pressure when he was in actual combat with the Xiao family members.

There is no doubt that his fighting spirit has not reached the level of a fighter.

But that speed! That strength! It's already comparable to that of a high-level fighter! Xiao Mei and Xiao Xun'er's families ranked at the top are even more terrifying, and to Xiao Zhan they feel like fighters!

terrible!

How come the strength of our Xiao family members has become so terrifying? !

"Outrageous?"

Hearing Xiao Zhan's words, Xiao Yan pinched his chin, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"I think it's quite normal."

Hearing Xiao Yan's unconscious words, Yao Chen in the ring couldn't help but complain.

Not outrageous? Still think it's normal?

You used your third-stage fighting force to knock down a one-star fighter in two hits, and you still think it's normal?

None of the girls and boys you trained are easy to deal with. They undergo such life-threatening training every day, and it would be unfair if they were not strong in actual combat.

"Forget it. I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go back to supervise the training."

Xiao Yan waved his hand lightly, thinking that his father was confused in his sleep, leaving Xiao Zhan standing there in a daze. Thinking of what Xiao Yan had just said, he couldn't help but fall into self-doubt.

Could it be that I, the great fighting master, am really too weak?

Xiao Zhan was in deep thought and slowly left here.

In the evening, Xiao Yan dismissed the Xiao family members. Just as Xiao Mei and Xiao Xun'er were about to approach him, Xiao Yan ran away, leaving the two little girls pouting in dissatisfaction.

Xiao Yan returned to his room, locked the door tightly, sat at the table, took out the storage ring given to him by Ya Fei, and poured out the herbs inside one by one. Yao Chen also came out of the ring and glanced at the herbs.

"They are indeed the herbs needed for Qi Gathering Powder, and they are all of the highest quality."

Compared to the Foundation Building Spirit Liquid, Qi Gathering Powder is a more popular prescription, and it is normal to prepare the corresponding medicinal materials in advance.

"Ok?"

Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows, looked at the familiar-looking medicinal herbs placed in the corner, and reached out to pick them up.

"Are these the medicinal materials for the foundation-building spirit fluid?"

"Ah~~~ I see." Yao Chen seemed to understand something, and nodded slightly while pinching his beautiful chin. "That girl named Ya Fei must have guessed that you were originally going to use that bottle of foundation building spirit liquid, but she just couldn't bear to sell it. Now she has taken the initiative to prepare all the materials for you, as a reward for asking me to refine the Qi Gathering Powder, and she can also do you a favor."

“But I only had the Wood Magic Core that day and it was from Sister Yafei that I asked for it?” Xiao Yan’s mind was full of question marks.

"Your Wutan City is only this big, and you are the son of the Xiao family, so you are considered a celebrity here. I can find out what you bought by asking around in the market. Is that difficult?"

Yao Chen glanced at his disciple and sighed slightly in his heart.

Although Xiao Yan is a nice person, his brain sometimes doesn't work so well.

"Forehead"

Xiao Yan scratched his face awkwardly, his eyes looking at the medicinal materials for the Foundation Building Spirit Liquid, a warm feeling flowing through his heart.

If Ya Fei didn't really value herself, she would definitely not do this.

"That girl is thoughtful. These herbs can be used to refine five bottles of foundation-building spirit liquid, which is enough for you."

However, Xiao Yan frowned slightly and whispered after a moment.

"not enough."

"Not enough?! Do you want to drink?" Yao Chen glanced at Xiao Yan. "As we said before, this stuff only works on fighters and below. With your qualifications, three bottles are redundant. How can it be not enough?"
