Xiao Xun'er was the first to speak with a smile: "How are you two? I'm Xiao Xun'er, and this is Han Yue."

Han Yue also nodded slightly, with a friendly smile on her face, and said: "It's our first meeting, I hope you can take care of me."

The Little Medical Fairy smiled warmly in response and said, "It turns out to be Miss Xiao Xun'er and Miss Han Yue. I have heard of your great names for a long time. It is such an honor to meet you today."

Qing Lin said timidly: "Welcome here."

Xiao Xun'er smiled gently and said, "I guess you two are Miss Xiao Yixian and Miss Qinglin. Brother Xiao Ling often talks about you in my ears."

The Little Medical Fairy was slightly startled, then responded: "Xiao Ling also often thinks of Miss Xun'er. I think you two have a very deep relationship as siblings."

While the two girls were talking, Han Yue looked around curiously and asked, "Ms. Qinglin, where is Xiao Ling? And why haven't we seen Ziyan?"

Qing Lin gently stroked the hair on his forehead and replied, "Master Xiao Ling is studying alchemy in the alchemy room, and Sister Zi Yan is practicing in the room. It is not convenient for her to come out at the critical moment."

Xiao Xun'er nodded slightly and said, "So that's how it is. Then let's wait for them in this courtyard."

Several people found a stone table in the courtyard and sat down. The Little Medical Fairy asked Qinglin to get some tea and snacks to entertain the guests.

Han Yue looked at the beautiful scenery around her and couldn't help but admire: "This courtyard is so exquisitely arranged, and it is elegant everywhere. I have come here to see it before. Although it is not messy, it is still quite different from now."

Xiao Xun'er smiled and responded, "Brother Xiao Ling has always been a thoughtful person. I'm sure every blade of grass and every tree in this courtyard has been carefully taken care of by him."

As they were talking, a breeze blew by, bringing with it the scent of flowers.

The Little Medical Fairy took a sip of tea and said, "Xiao Ling is also extremely obsessed with the art of alchemy and often stays in the alchemy room for a long time."

At this time, Qinglin came back with tea and snacks, and placed them carefully on the stone table.

Han Yue picked up a piece of dessert and tasted it. As she ate, she said, "This dessert tastes very good. I think it took a lot of thought to make it."

When Qinglin heard Han Yue's praise, her already rosy face became even happier. These snacks were made by Qinglin herself.

Qing Lin thought happily in his heart: "Since this sister likes it so much, Young Master Xiao Ling will surely like it too."

……

While the few people were talking, smoke was rising from the alchemy room in Xiao Ling's courtyard, and the rich fragrance of medicine filled the room like a layer of gauze.

Various rare medicinal materials are neatly and orderly placed on the shelves, which are dazzling and exude a unique aroma.

In the alchemy furnace, blazing flames rose vigorously and made whirring sounds, as if telling the mystery and wonder of alchemy.

Xiao Ling was concentrating on controlling the flame with a focused gaze. Judging from the changes in the shape of the flame, Xiao Ling's control over the flame had already reached perfection at this time.

Yao Chen was floating leisurely on the side, looking calm, and giving instructions from time to time. His words were full of rich experience and profound wisdom.

Suddenly, Xiao Ling frowned, and the flame in his hand slightly deformed. Obviously, something was happening.

As soon as Xiao Xun'er and Han Yue stepped into the quiet courtyard, the subtle sounds of their footsteps and the rustling of their sleeves were easily noticed by Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling turned his head and looked at Yao Chen calmly, and said in a natural tone: "Old Yao, there is something I need to make clear to you. Xun'er came here this time, probably because she wanted to meet you."

Yao Chen stopped the gesture he was making, slowly turned his gaze towards Xiao Ling, and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "I am just a remnant soul, why does she want to see me?"

Xiao Ling's expression remained unchanged as he explained slowly and calmly, "Master Yao, when I met Xun'er yesterday, I told her about you. I guess she wanted to meet you out of curiosity."

As for the transaction mentioned with Xiao Xun'er, Xiao Ling did not intend to tell Yao Chen now.

Yao Chen suddenly realized, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he said: "So that's how it is. I guess this little girl is a little worried."

Xiao Ling smiled slightly and said, "Master Yao, Xun'er has a special identity. You have to be more careful when communicating with her."

Yao Chen nodded and said with a relaxed look: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing and I won't make any mistakes."

"In that case, let's not keep them waiting too long."

Afterwards, Xiao Ling quickly and methodically packed up the alchemy tools. The medicine dust turned into a soft light and lightly drilled into the Bone Inflammation Ring.

Xiao Ling gently held the Bone Inflammation Ring in his hand, took a deep breath, and walked out of the alchemy room with brisk steps.

Xiao Ling walked out of the alchemy room, and the moment he raised his eyes, he saw the women in the courtyard.

Hearing the sound of steady footsteps, the people who were talking also looked over.

Then I saw Xiao Ling's tall figure walking slowly towards me with leisurely steps.

The sunlight shone on Xiao Ling, outlining a golden outline. His already extraordinary face looked even more handsome in the light and shadow, and his deep eyes revealed a hint of gentleness and calmness.

Xiao Ling smiled and greeted everyone in the courtyard with a gentle look: "Sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. I think you all know each other now."

The voice was as gentle as jade, like a spring breeze blowing through everyone's hearts.

Xiao Xun'er's beautiful eyes moved, and she said with her red lips slightly parted, "Brother Xiao Ling, we are already familiar with each other, and we are having a good chat."

Xiao Ling smiled and nodded, his eyes swept over everyone one by one, and said, "That's great. I'm happy to see everyone getting along well."

When his sight fell on Han Yue, Xiao Ling's eyes flashed with joy, and he said, "Long time no see, Senior Sister Han Yue."

Han Yue's expression was a bit complicated, as if she was surprised but also complained a little. She pursed her lips and replied, "Xiao Ling, it's been a long time."

Seeing Han Yue like this, Xiao Ling felt a little guilty. He muttered to himself, "I have to find an opportunity to have a good exchange of feelings with my senior sister later."

Chapter 144 Xun Er's Strength

After chatting with a few people, Xiao Ling always had a gentle smile on his face and his words were full of friendliness.

First, he discussed some pharmacological experiences with Xiao Yixiang, then he expressed his appreciation for Qinglin's achievements in taking care of flowers and plants, and also exchanged some recent insights on cultivation with Han Yue.

As the atmosphere became more harmonious, Xiao Ling turned his gaze to Xiao Xun'er, with a subtle hint of deep meaning flashing in his eyes. Then he coughed lightly and said with a smile, "Xun'er and I have some important things to deal with, so I'll excuse myself for a while."

Although everyone was a little confused, they all nodded to show their understanding. Xiao Ling then took Xiao Xun'er to a room.

After entering the secret room, Xiao Xun'er couldn't wait to ask Xiao Ling: "Brother Xiao Ling, can I meet Senior Yao Chen now?"

Xiao Ling nodded slightly and said, "Just be patient, Xun'er."

Xiao Ling took out the Bone Inflammation Ring from his arms, a ray of light flashed, and Yao Chen's figure slowly emerged.

When Xiao Xun'er saw Yao Chen appear, she was curious, but she quickly regained her composure and bowed slightly, saying, "Senior Yao Chen, I have heard of your great name for a long time."

Yao Chen looked Xiao Xun'er up and down, with a hint of admiration in his eyes: "Little girl, you have an extraordinary demeanor."

Xiao Xun'er smiled softly and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Senior. It is my honor to meet you today."

Yao Chen looked calm and said slowly, "Little girl, you came to see me today. In my opinion, I can probably guess why. It must be related to this kid Xiao Ling."

Xiao Xun'er nodded slightly and replied, "Indeed, Xun'er does have some heartfelt words that she wants to discuss with you, Senior."

Seeing this, Xiao Ling on the side knew that he should leave, so he nodded slightly to the two of them, thinking to himself: "Xun'er is communicating with Yao Lao, I'd better not disturb her." Then he said: "Yao Lao, Xun'er, you guys chat slowly, I'll go out first." After saying that, he turned and left.

Xiao Xun'er tilted her head slightly, looked at Xiao Ling tenderly and said, "Brother Xiao Ling, it won't take Xun'er long."

Seeing that Xiao Ling's figure had completely disappeared, Xiao Xun'er withdrew her gaze and instead fixed her eyes firmly on the illusory soul body floating in the air.

When he saw Xiao Xun'er turning her gaze towards him, Yao Chen immediately put away the relaxed look on his face and became extremely serious.

Yao Chen knew very well that if he really made the girl in front of him unhappy, he would definitely not end up well.

Even if he recovered to his peak strength as he did in his lifetime, he would be nothing in front of those ancient races that had stood on the continent for thousands of years.

Xiao Xun'er looked at Yao Chen and said solemnly, "Senior Yao Chen, Brother Xiao Ling has a kind heart and values ​​friendship. I hope that when you are teaching him how to practice, you will not have any ulterior motives.

As soon as she finished speaking, a ball of golden flame suddenly rose in Xiao Xun'er's hand. The flame burned fiercely, as if it would burn the surrounding space and distort it.

The golden light was dazzling, but also carried a terrifyingly high temperature. The air near it was instantly scorched hot, and even made a crackling sound.

The terrifying power spread outward with the flames as the center. Wherever it went, even the light seemed to be swallowed up. People dared not look directly at it, as if if they looked at it for just one more moment, their souls would be burned by the terrible high temperature.

Although both are the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame, the flame released by Xiao Xun'er is so terrifying that it is far different from Xiao Ling's Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame, and is far more terrifying than that.

The aura from Xiao Xun'er began to be released slowly. At first it was very weak, like a gentle breeze, almost imperceptible.

But as time went by, this aura gradually grew stronger, like a gurgling stream converging into a turbulent river, becoming more and more majestic.

At the same time, Xiao Xun'er's body floated up in an extremely slow and graceful posture without the help of the fighting spirit wings, as if being gently lifted up by a mysterious and gentle force.

There seemed to be an invisible force supporting her body. That force was mysterious and powerful, making Xiao Xun'er exude an otherworldly temperament.

With her long black hair gently fluttering and her clothes flowing in the wind, she looked like a fairy from the heavens descending to earth. One could not help but stare at her in awe.

Yao Chen was slightly stunned, then said seriously: "Little girl, I can probably guess your identity. After so many years in the mainland, I can still tell who can be provoked and who cannot be provoked."

"The ancient clan's inherited strange fire, the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame, ranked fourth on the Strange Fire List, I can still recognize it at a glance. As expected of the next clan leader of the ancient clan, he can actually rely on his Dou Wang cultivation to activate the secret method and reach the strength of a Dou Zong."

Suddenly, a golden flame flashed in Xiao Xun'er's eyes, and at that moment, her eyes became extremely sharp.

At this time, Xiao Xun'er's tone was no longer as gentle and soft as before when she treated Xiao Ling, but was full of majesty and coldness.

"Since the old gentleman can guess my identity, he must also understand the seriousness of the matter. If Brother Xiao Ling really makes a mistake, the consequences will not be something you can bear. The old gentleman is also a member of the Eight Clans, so he must be more aware of the power of the Ancient Clans."

Since Yao Chen had also made a name for himself in Zhongzhou, the Ancient Clan naturally collected some information about Yao Chen and knew that he came from the Yao Clan, one of the eight ancient clans.

It’s just that because Yao Chen left the Yao clan too early, those old events cannot be discovered, and the other six clans are also not clear about the real reason why Yao Chen left the Yao clan.

Yao Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze revealing the vicissitudes and depth of a person who has experienced a lot of worldly things. Facing Xiao Xun'er's warning, there was no fear on his face. Instead, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an imperceptible confidence and composure.

"Little girl, I understand your worries, but the world can bear witness to my feelings for Xiao Ling." He stroked his beard, a look of determination flashing in his eyes: "I have seen countless people in my life. Xiao Ling is a child with outstanding talent. I will definitely teach him everything I know and help him embark on the road to the top."

Xiao Xun'er stared at Yao Chen closely, as if trying to determine whether his words were true or false.

Yao Chen met Xiao Xun'er's gaze calmly and continued, "I am now living with Xiao Ling. We rely on each other and help each other. How could I have the intention to harm him?"

"Besides, Xiao Ling has great trust in me, and I will not let her down. I know very well that the power behind the girl cannot be underestimated, so I will be careful with my words and actions."

Xiao Xun'er was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "That's good. If I find out that Senior has done anything that is detrimental to Brother Xiao Ling, I will definitely not let it go."

Chapter 145 The Great Elder's Summons

Hearing Xiao Xun'er's warning, Yao Chen nodded slightly and promised solemnly:

"Little girl, you can rest assured. I am only planning for Xiao Ling's growth. I only hope that he can stand out and make achievements in his cultivation as soon as possible."

"I will do my best to help Xiao Ling overcome all difficulties and obstacles and achieve extraordinary success. You know, Xiao Ling is a gifted child with unlimited potential. As long as he is guided properly, his future will be limitless."

"Besides, only if Xiao Ling can grow faster and have strong enough strength can he collect the rare materials needed to refine a new body for me, so as to help me revive as soon as possible."

"Although I am old, eighty or ninety years older than you, I am still relatively young among the Dou Zun level. I haven't lived enough. I still hope to be reborn, and maybe I can get a glimpse of the realm of a ninth-grade alchemist."

After saying this, Yao Chen's eyes revealed determination and expectation.

Seeing Yao Chen's sincere words, Xiao Xun'er's expression finally eased and she said:

"I hope that Senior will keep his word. Xun'er believes in you. You are also highly respected on the continent, and I believe you will not break your word."

After Xiao Xun'er finished speaking, the golden flame in her hand slowly went out, and the dazzling light gradually disappeared. The originally powerful and shocking aura around her also gradually converged like a tide until it returned to calm.

At this moment, Xiao Xun'er seemed to have transformed from a high and mighty goddess back into a gentle and lovely girl.

Seeing Xiao Xun'er's expression become relaxed, Yao Chen also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Don't worry, young lady. I will go all out and will not slack off. I will use what I have learned to guide Xiao Ling in the direction of the road ahead and help him avoid the many traps on the road of cultivation. I have experienced many hardships and know all the difficulties and obstacles on the road of cultivation. I will definitely help Xiao Ling avoid detours."

Xiao Xun'er nodded slightly and said, "That's good. Senior Yao Chen, Brother Xiao Ling's future is entrusted to you. Although our ancient clan is powerful, we are also reasonable. If you sincerely help him, you will be rewarded in the future. I believe that with the foundation of the ancient clan, we will not treat you unfairly."

Hearing Xiao Xun'er's promise, Yao Chen stroked his beard and smiled, "Miss, you are too kind. Since I have already agreed, I will spare no effort. Moreover, even if you don't have the support of the young lady of the ancient clan, I will definitely teach you everything I have learned without any reservation. I have been with Xiao Ling for a long time and I really like this child. I will do my best."

As for whether the ancient clan would give him some good things, Yao Chen didn't think much about it now.

Yao Chen knew very well that the focus at the moment was to help Xiao Ling grow, and everything else was later.

Although he and Xiao Ling were bound together by interests in the beginning, after more than half a year of getting along, their relationship had already been greatly improved and was no longer limited to the previous level of interests.

After confirming that Yao Chen was following Xiao Ling and had no other ill intentions, Xiao Xun'er felt relieved.

Yao Chen's abilities and insights are crucial to Xiao Ling's growth. As long as Yao Chen is wholeheartedly doing good for Xiao Ling, he can provide great help before Xiao Ling grows up.

Without saying anything more, Xiao Xun'er bowed slightly to Yao Chen, then turned and walked out the door.

The graceful figure is like a floating cloud, graceful and unforgettable. The skirt flutters in the wind, as if carrying endless mystery and charm.

Yao Chen looked at Xiao Xun'er's departing back and thought to himself:

"This eldest lady of the ancient clan is really affectionate and caring towards Xiao Ling. I wonder how Xiao Ling could have such good fortune to be treated so lovingly by such a beautiful lady."

"But Xiao Ling is indeed unique. He values ​​friendship, loyalty, determination and courage. Perhaps this is what attracted Xiao Xun'er to him."

Shaking his head, Yao Chen sighed, "Forget it. As an old man, why should I bother to think about the love affairs of young people? It is better to focus on cultivation, which is the right way."

After a brief pause, Yao Chen no longer thought about it. His figure flashed, and the illusory soul body, like a swift stream of light, accurately drilled into the Bone Inflammation Ring beside him.

As the figures of the man and the soul disappeared, the spacious secret room was like a mute button was pressed, and it instantly fell into silence. Only the faintly flickering candlelight seemed to be telling what had just happened.
