Chapter 59: Why do you argue with her?
Jia Ma Imperial Capital, Nalan Mansion.
Xiao Yan, Xiao Xue, Nalan Yanran and Liu Ling stood together, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward.
As a disciple of Dan Wang Guhe, Liu Ling has naturally heard of the names of Xiao Yan and Xiao Xue.
One of them is Nalan Yanran’s fiancé, and the other is the youngest fifth-grade alchemist.
Although Nalan Yanran used to be in the Yunlan Sect and had always made a high-profile statement that she wanted to break off the engagement, the Nalan family has always been opposed to it.
A year ago, Nalan Yanran never raised the issue of breaking off the engagement in a high-profile manner, and seemed to have acquiesced in it.
This made Liu Ling feel a little hostile towards Xiao Yan, whom he had never met before.
So sour!
I just blame my grandfather for not being Xiao Lin!
However, Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran have a marriage contract, and he is not qualified to say anything as an outsider.
But now, after seeing Xiao Xue, Liu Ling was immediately shocked and fell into a trance for a moment.
"There are such beautiful people in this world!"
But after he took one look, he didn't dare to take a second look.
This woman is too cold, and she naturally has a temperament that repels people thousands of miles away, like a goddess above the nine heavens who does not eat the fireworks of the world.
This kind of coldness would make an ordinary man feel ashamed, even if he is a disciple of Alchemy King Furukawa.
However, he had other thoughts in mind.
A fair lady, a gentleman likes to be jealous, and although he, Liu Ling, is not talented, he still has some abilities.
In terms of strength, appearance, and talent, he is a leader among the younger generation of the Jiama Empire.
So Brother Yan, we were ignorant before, do you still need a brother-in-law?
Furukawa is the elder of the Yunlan Sect, he is a disciple of Furukawa, and Nalan Yanran is the young master of the Yunlan Sect.
The four of them form two couples, and they become even more intimate!
Xiao Yan looked at Liu Ling and frowned slightly.
Having lived for two generations, he can naturally see Liu Ling's little thoughts.
Good guy, this little kid has some pretty good ideas.
I don’t know, who gave this kid the confidence?
When Xiao Yan was about to say something, Xiao Xue pulled him and took two steps forward, "Your name is Liu Ling, right."
"Second-grade alchemist, tut tut."
Hearing this, Liu Ling straightened her back somewhat proudly.
His age is slightly older than Xiao Xue and Xiao Yan.
But at such an age, to become a second-grade alchemist, his talent in refining medicine is not weak.
It’s just that it’s only in the Jiama Empire.
Among some large family forces, there are many people who have reached the second level of alchemist at Liu Ling's age.
In particular, Xiao Xue has already broken through the fifth level, and is only a short distance away from breaking through the sixth level.
Therefore, in comparison, Liu Ling is a bit unsatisfactory.
"This is the disciple of Dan King Furukawa?"
Liu Ling's expression was stunned for a moment, and everyone around her was also distracted by Xiao Xue's words.
Liu Ling wanted to refute, but thinking that Xiao Xue might already be in the fifth rank, she finally shut her mouth in confusion.
After all, in comparison, his skills are indeed inferior to others.
Nalan Yanran stood aside awkwardly, not knowing what to do.
"Senior Furukawa, your reputation as the Alchemy King is somewhat undeserved."
"At least, in terms of teaching disciples, you are still slightly inferior to the tutor."
Xiao Xue turned to look at Furukawa not far away. Her voice was not loud, but everyone present could hear her clearly.
Suddenly, there were faint whispers all around.
"Who is that young man? How dare you talk to Master Furukawa like this!"
"Your information is too late. That is the fourth young lady of the Xiao family. It is said that she is now a fifth-grade alchemist!"
"Fifth grade? Real or fake! Master Furukawa is only sixth grade, right?"
"It's not just that! It is said that Mr. Nalan was so poisoned that even Master Furukawa was helpless. It was the fourth lady of the Xiao family who cured the old man!"
"I also heard..."
"..."
When Xiao Zhan saw something was wrong, he quickly turned to Xiao Xue and scolded, "Xue'er, don't be rude!"
However, there was not much blame in his voice. It was not like blaming Xiao Xue for making a mistake, but more like blaming her for making a mistake and being caught.
"Master Furukawa, please forgive me, it's me who spoiled my little girl." Xiao Zhan turned to Furukawa and said, clasping his fists.
"It doesn't matter." Furukawa responded casually, then cast his gaze on Xiao Xue, and their eyes collided in the air.
The people around him fell silent for a moment and silently observed this scene.
They all know that if Xiao Xue is indeed a fifth-grade alchemist now, then she will definitely surpass Alchemy King Gu He in the future!
This is the new king’s provocation against the old king!
"Senior Furukawa, why don't you and I make a bet?" Xiao Xue ignored everyone's reactions and spoke with a smile.
Hearing this, Furukawa frowned slightly, "Girl, what do you want to bet on?"
Xiao Xue smiled and said, "The younger generation is not talented, but there is a disciple who is similar in age to the senior disciple."
"She is now a second-grade alchemist and a first-grade fighting spirit."
"Hiss~"*N
Everyone present couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and even Furukawa was slightly surprised.
A second-grade alchemist at the fighting spirit level does not surprise everyone.
However, according to Xiao Xue, her disciple is similar in age to Liu Ling!
A powerful spirit fighter about twenty years old!
This kind of cultivation talent is simply terrifying!
Then, everyone unanimously thought of another terrible fact:
If the disciple is so terrifying, then what kind of strength does the fourth young lady of the Xiao family have?
“Hiss~~”*N
So scary!
"This junior hopes that my disciples can compete with this Liu Ling in the alchemist competition in two years' time."
Xiao Xue waited for everyone to digest the information in her words, and then continued.
"If the senior loses, I hope the senior can agree to the junior's request."
"Of course, if the junior loses, I can recommend the senior to enter the Danta."
Xiao Xue's light words penetrated into Furukawa's ears, but made Furukawa's breathing become heavier instantly.
Furukawa's dream has always been to break through to the seventh level alchemist, go to Zhongzhou, and join Danta.
Furukawa felt that his talent was insufficient and it would be too difficult to break through to the seventh level, so he placed his hope on refining the strange fire.
He wants to improve himself to a higher level in all aspects by refining the strange fire, and he can also use the strange fire to provide bonuses for refining medicine.
It's a pity that strange fire is too mysterious. Even he, Furukawa, has not been able to get any news for so many years.
But now, what did Furukawa hear?
Can Xiao Xue directly introduce him to the Dan Pagoda?
"Is this true?" Gu He stared at Xiao Xue with red eyes.
Xiao Xue took out the fifth-grade alchemist medal from the ring, wore it on her chest, and spoke slowly.
"I am only fifteen years old, and 99% of what I have achieved today is due to my mysterious teacher."
"And he is an elder of Danta."
"...Yes, the person who can cultivate such a despairing genius like you is definitely the elder of Danta."
"With your talent, you may not be able to break through the eighth level in the future. Even the Alchemy Tower will not ignore an alchemist of that level."
"In addition, your teacher is himself an elder of the Dan Pagoda, and you will definitely become an elder of the Dan Pagoda."
Furukawa murmured to himself, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.
If he loses, he needs to agree to Xiao Xue's request. This condition can actually be big or small, so Furukawa hesitates.
But now, he couldn't help but was moved by the conditions Xiao Xue offered.
After thinking for a while, Furukawa finally forced out a smile and said, "Okay, little friend Xiao Xue, I will make a bet with you!"
Everyone was instantly in an uproar. The gap between "girl" and "little friend" is huge!
Xiao Zhan on the side felt relieved, smiled with satisfaction at Xiao Xue, and then went to drink and brag with Nalan Su.
"Liu Ling." Furukawa called Liu Ling, turned around and left.
His goal has been achieved, so naturally he will not stay at this banquet for long.
Moreover, Liu Ling is now related to whether he can enter the Dan Pagoda. If he wants to enter the Dan Pagoda, his own alchemy skills must be justified.
Therefore, it is the right way to go back and study the art of alchemy.
Liu Ling cleared her throat in embarrassment, "Ahem, I'll leave first, you guys chat first." Then he trotted to follow.
Nalan Yanran subconsciously wanted to see Gu He off, but when she thought that her fiancé was still standing next to her, she stopped in time.
Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran looked at each other in silence, and the atmosphere was so awkward that they could cry.
"Ahem, brother...sister-in-law, you two are chatting." Xiao Xue said, turned and walked to the side.
It's better to leave these things to his cheap brother to handle on his own, she's not good at it.
Without the original issue of breaking off the engagement, Xiao Yan is definitely not disgusted with Nalan Yanran now, but he probably doesn't have much affection for her either.
And although she spends a lot of time away from home, she doesn't know what the current situation of Xiao Yan and Xun'er is.
However, as the male and female protagonists of the world, I think the progress of their relationship should not be slow.
And Nalan Yanran will definitely not be able to compete with the female lead.
In the original work, Xun'er accepted Medusa because Xiao Yan owed Medusa a lot, and the two of them were pregnant with a daughter.
If it weren't for this, with Xiao Xun'er's character, someone would have captured Medusa and made her stew.
Now, Nalan Yanran and Xiao Yan have no emotional foundation and no bond. How can she, Nalan Yanran, compete with Xun'er?
Therefore, she didn't pay too much attention to these things.
What Xiao Xue really cares about is the rapid increase in [reputation value] on the system interface!
This banquet gathered most of the famous families in the Jia Ma Imperial Capital, as well as some strong casual cultivators.
The [Reputation Points] Xiao Xue gained tonight was even more than what she had gained before combined!
Jie Jie Jie, Furukawa, you didn’t expect it, this is part of the plan!
As for the bet, Xiao Xue has absolute confidence.
That is, her disciple, the Little Medical Fairy, cannot possibly lose!
In two years, from first entering the second level, to reaching the peak of the fourth level or even the fifth level, it may seem exaggerated, but the little medical fairy is a poisonous body!
Two years later, the little medical fairy will be at least at the peak of Dou Ling, and even the Dou Wang cultivation and soul power will be at least at the late stage of Mortal Realm!
Chapter completed!
