Chapter 76: Zi Yan’s Visit



Chapter 76: Zi Yan’s Visit

Before Xiao Ming had time to rejoice at having broken through the eight-star Dou Grandmaster, the knocking outside the door sounded once more.

Knock knock knock!

The knocking outside the door continued, and Xiao Ming frowned slightly.

When he went to the door and opened the wooden door, Xiao Ming discovered that the person who had been knocking was actually Bo Pao.

At this moment, Bo Pao's face was a little bruised and swollen, as if he had been beaten up not long ago.

"Bo Pao, are you looking for me for something? I haven't seen you for a night, why do you have an extra bruise on your face?"

"There's a little girl in white down here, she says she's come looking for you to refine a pill, this wound of mine, it's... sigh, forget it, come down quickly, if you get her angry, I'm afraid you won't have a good ending either." On Bo Pao's face, there was an expression of fear.

Obviously, Xiao Ming's words had brought back bad memories.

After talking to Xiao Ming, Bo Pao did not wait for an answer and limped away.

Looking at his back, Xiao Ming muttered.

"A girl in white, isn't she Zi Yan, did she teach Bo Pao a lesson? This is weird, could it be that Bo Pao pissed off Zi Yan somewhere?"

Xiao Ming was a little puzzled and shook his head, going back to his room to tidy up his clothes.

Then, he pushed back the wooden door of his room and headed for the hallway of the pavilion.

When he arrived at the hall, Xiao Ming saw Jia Yun and Jiang Yanshu glaring at a girl, this girl was none other than Zi Yan.

Xiao Ming's arrival attracted the attention of the three people in the room.

Zi Yan, who had been sitting on a chair and swinging her legs, saw Xiao Ming, her eyes lit up and she immediately left her chair and ran to him, blinking her big eyes and handing him a fruit in her hand.

"Xiao Ming, you're finally here, take it, use this medicinal herb. You said you would turn it into a delicious pill, if not, you will have to be my younger brother from now on."

Hearing Zi Yan's words, Jia Yun and Jiang Yanshu who were standing to the side, could not help but shake their heads and sigh for Xiao Ming, although this girl in white was very cute, her strength was terrifying.

They had just seen that Bo Pao had accidentally collided with her and had gone flying several meters away when she lightly hit him.

One can imagine her ferocity, and now Xiao Ming was inexplicably targeted by her, so they didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse.

Xiao Ming was unaware of the two girls' thoughts, and after smiling at them as a way of greeting, Xiao Ming turned his attention to the fruit in Zi Yan's hand.

The fruit was quite strange, half was red and a half was white.

On the red side, even though it was a foot away from him, Xiao Ming could still feel the scorching heat seeping through.

The white side, on the other hand, emitted a very different frosty temperature, two almost extreme attributes that blended seamlessly into one fruit.

Furthermore, on the surface of the fruit, containing the two attributes of ice and fire, there were faint traces of lines extending.

These lines were staggered and seemed to have some kind of hidden pattern, but upon closer inspection, they were a mess, inscrutable.

Xiao Ming, who was familiar with Jia Nan Academy's extensive list of medicinal herbs, recognized at a glance what kind of medicinal herb this fruit was.

"My goodness, isn't this the Ice and Fire Dragon Beard Fruit?! You didn't take this medicinal herb from the herb warehouse, did you?"

Although it was a question, Xiao Ming's tone was confident.

A medicinal herb like the Ice and Fire Dragon Beard Fruit was growing in a strange environment and must be being guarded by high-ranked magical beasts in its vicinity.

Although Zi Yan was an Ancient Void Dragon, after all, she was not at a high level now, she would not even be able to defeat the others, let alone be able to have such a cheerful look in front of him.

Moreover, Xiao Ming knew that there was indeed an Ice and Fire Dragon Beard Fruit in the Inner Academy's herb warehouse.

Therefore, Xiao Ming was certain that Zi Yan's medicinal herbs were taken from the medicinal herb storehouse.

"How do you know? Forget it, those things are not important. There are many medicinal herbs in the herb warehouse, so it's better to eat them than to leave them there. Besides, the broken defensive shield in that place is not useful at all, the medicinal herbs I can take whenever I want, this is much more convenient than my hard work outside looking for medicinal herbs." Zi Yan smiled and said without worrying.

Xiao Ming shook his head as he listened to Zi Yan's tone of voice as if she was treating Jia Nan Academy's herb warehouse like a restaurant.

As far as he knew, Jia Nan Academy's herb warehouse was guarded by special elders and was protected by a spatial energy shield.

But these protective measures are as good as nothing against Zi Yan, she is an Ancient Void Dragon, and her main attribute is space, plus the elders who guarded it are most likely unable to defeat her.

No wonder she uses the warehouse as a restaurant…

Of course, there must also be a reason for the lack of reaction from First Elder Su Qian who adopted her. In the end, although Su Qian is basically in a state of indulgence towards Zi Yan, to her, he still cares quite a bit.

Putting the Ice and Fire Dragon Beard Fruit a little closer to Xiao Ming, Zi Yan urged, "You've seen enough, hurry up and go refine it. You are so grumpy! Could it be that you lied to me yesterday and don't know how to refine pills?"

Xiao Ming was really dumbfounded, where was he being grumpy, he had only just taken a look at the medicinal herb, how could he refine the pill without seeing what kind of medicinal herb it was? Knowing that the refractoriness of each medicinal herb was different, throwing the medicinal herb into the fire randomly would easily destroy it.

However, he did not bother to tell Zi Yan, she was also not an alchemist, so she would not mind that, she would simply tell him to hurry up and go refine the pills.

Therefore, Xiao Ming directly took the Ice and Fire Dragon Beard Fruit from Zi Yan's hand, gestured to Zi Yan, and then turned back towards his room.

Seeing Xiao Ming's gesture, Zi Yan's eyes lit up and she followed behind Xiao Ming anxiously.

It didn't take long for them to reach Xiao Ming's room.

"Feel free to find a place to sit."

After casually instructing, Xiao Ming waved his hand and summoned his Medicinal Cauldron, waving his palm, a tuft of red flames took shape on his fingertips.

Just as he was about to throw it into the Medicinal Cauldron, Xiao Ming noticed that Zi Yan, who was beside him, was moving to the side in some panic.

Looking at her vaguely nervous eyes, Xiao Ming was not surprised by her reaction.

"Don't be afraid, touch it carefully, isn't this the magical beast aura you sensed yesterday?".

Zi Yan listened to his words and felt it carefully, and discovered that the aura emanating from this flame was exactly the same as the magical beast aura she had felt yesterday.

It seemed that Xiao Ming was not really a magical beast, but Zi Yan did not feel the slightest bit frustrated in her heart.

This was because this meant that Xiao Ming really can make delicious food for her.

After asking the question, Xiao Ming did not wait for Zi Yan's answer before throwing the flame at his fingertips at the medicinal cauldron.

Only when Zi Yan saw the flame enter the medicinal cauldron did her tense body gradually relax as she approached the cauldron, her eyes revealing a gleam of anticipation.

Xiao Ming merely watched her movements and did not mind, simply instructing her not to use the medicinal cauldron without his permission later on.

After the flames had heated the medicinal cauldron for a while, he nonchalantly tossed the Ice and Fire Dragonbeard Fruit into it, and, with a wave of his palm, the flames inside the cauldron rose dramatically and the Ice and Fire Dragon Beard Fruit gradually liquefied under the temperature of the flames.

This kind of refining was not that difficult, as long as the fire was well controlled, so it did not consume a lot of Xiao Ming's energy, and the refining was very fast.

After a few moments, the Ice and Fire Dragon Beard Fruit had completely turned into a purple sticky liquid, and with a wave of Xiao Ming's palm, a cloud of powder fell into the medicinal cauldron and immediately merged with the sticky liquid.

His ten fingers twitched violently in front of him, and as his fingertips twitched, the mixed liquid inside the Medicinal Cauldron also quickly separated, finally turning into dozens of small clusters of liquid.

"Condensation!" With a soft cry, the liquid quickly solidified, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into dozens of pills with a purple glow, swirling about the Ten Thousand Beast Flame.
