Departing from the Ye family to fight Ye Jiran
Lin Xiao did not know this so-called Ye Jiran.
However, many of the younger generation of the Feng Family present here exclaimed in surprise.
"Ye Jiran? That's the personal Disciple of the Ye Family's Old Ancestor. I heard he's not very old, but his Alchemy skills have already reached a superb level!"
"The Ye Family's Old Ancestor is an Eighth-Rank Alchemist Master. How could someone he takes as a personal Disciple be an ordinary person!"
These people inadvertently cast their gaze towards Feng Xuanzhi.
Although within the Feng Family, this Young Master of the main branch could be said to have no equal, when compared to the Prodigies of the other two great Alchemy Noble Families, he was somewhat out of his league.
Lin Xiao heard all these whispers.
Eighth-Rank Great Master? Personal Disciple?
So what?
He quietly asked,
"May I know when this competition can begin?"
As long as it was an Alchemy competition, Lin Xiao feared nothing!
This was the confidence of a young Grandmaster.
Now, he just wanted to quickly complete the opponent's conditions, obtain the heavenly heart grass, refine the nine revolutions tribulation breaking pill, and save Principal Chu!
Deng Ping didn't know what he thought of, but he suddenly burst out laughing, standing to the side.
Li Xuandan turned his head.
He was truly fed up with this Old Fellow; if allowed, he would have debated him for three hundred rounds!
"Lin Xiao, let's be clear beforehand. As long as you defeat Ye Jiran, I will naturally hand over the heavenly heart grass to you, but if you lose..."
"This Junior will not lose!"
Li Xuandan's words were cut short by Lin Xiao's immediate denial.
Feeling the youth's unknown confidence, Li Xuandan ultimately did not utter the remaining words.
He and the Ye Family's Old Ancestor once had an Alchemy Dao competition, which ended in a draw. However, at that time, both were arrogant, so they made a bet: when both had Disciples in the future, their Disciples would compete again!
Ye Jiran was the only Disciple that Old Fellow publicly promoted, and his talent and aptitude in Alchemy were indeed exceptionally outstanding.
If he remembered correctly, that boy could refine six-rank Medicinal Pills three years ago.
Three years had passed, and he didn't know what the young man's limit was now.
On the other hand, he himself hadn't even found anyone pleasing to the eye, let alone taken a Disciple.
Perhaps the young man named Feng Xuanzhi would have been his choice, but Lin Xiao appeared!
Just by refining a six-rank Medicinal Pill in five minutes, the Alchemy strength this child displayed had already exceeded imagination.
Moreover, Li Xuandan could sense that Lin Xiao hadn't used his full strength. If he went all out, it might even be a draw with Ye Jiran, but he was already very satisfied with a draw.
Thinking of this, he immediately made a decision!
"Good, since you have such determination, this Old Fellow will now issue a challenge for you. But at that time, you will need to fight under the name of this Old Fellow's Disciple. Are you willing?"
As soon as these words came out, Feng Xuanzhi's face was already turning purple with anger!
Why?
Why??
At this moment, he was absolutely certain that if Lin Xiao hadn't appeared, he would definitely have become Great Master Li Xuandan's Disciple.
It was all him!
It was he who made me lose everything!
The jealousy, anger, and even intense killing intent had already erupted within him!
Lin Xiao frowned slightly upon hearing this. He only wanted the heavenly heart grass and had no intention of becoming his Disciple.
To put it bluntly, he felt that the old man in front of him did not seem qualified to be his Master.
Deng Ping opened his mouth, not knowing how to speak to his old friend.
Good heavens, are you sure you can be his Master?
Perhaps sensing Lin Xiao's difficulty, Li Xuandan waved his hand.
"What, does being this Old Fellow's Disciple make you very difficult?"
His tone was heavy, and his expression was solemn.
Who was he?
The paramount figure in the Alchemy world.
One of the only three Eighth-Rank Alchemist Masters in Dragon Country!
If he announced that he wanted to take a Disciple, countless young talents would rush to become his Disciple!
This was no lie.
How come it seemed like being his Disciple wronged this young man!
"Thank you for your kindness, but this Junior already has a Master. This time, I am only here for the heavenly heart grass!"
Lin Xiao thought of an elder in his mind. Strictly speaking, the other party should be his teacher. He wondered if his teacher would scold him if he heard such words.
"Oh? Who is your teacher?"
Li Xuandan unconsciously took a step forward. He guessed that the unheard-of Alchemy method was taught by the Master Lin Xiao mentioned. He wanted to inquire about the whereabouts of this mysterious person.
"My Master once said that I should not reveal his name outside. I hope Great Master will forgive me."
Lin Xiao was neither humble nor arrogant.
"Alright then! Since that's the case, I won't force you. This Old Fellow will now issue the challenge. Young man, are you ready!"
"Yes!"
The voice was firm and powerful.
Immediately, Li Xuandan silently closed his eyes, and an invisible spatial force appeared.
Lin Xiao noticed this scene, his eyes flickering slightly. He already knew that Martial Venerable powerhouses, aside from their inherent talent, could forcibly interfere with the rules of heaven and earth and apply them simply.
The spatial force from above seemed to be transmitting some message. This spatial application seemed a bit childish to him, but the energy fluctuation of the Venerable Rank level made Lin Xiao's body tremble slightly.
Very strong!
His current strength seemed to be a long way from a Martial Venerable.
After waiting for a moment, Li Xuandan opened his eyes.
"The challenge has been issued! The duel will be tomorrow!"
Just now, he had communicated with the Ye Clan's Old Ancestor through the power of space, and the other party was also very straightforward.
This battle had been long anticipated by both of them.
After speaking, Li Xuandan turned to look at Feng Danxiao.
"Old Feng, I've been rambling tonight."
"Senior Li, what are you saying? Someone, prepare three rooms immediately!"
Feng Danxiao was very adept at handling things and immediately arranged for someone to clear out three rooms for them to rest.
Lin Xiao also cupped his fists. He had originally planned to rent a hotel nearby, but now it was good, he even saved money!
Night.
Lin Xiao rested alone in his room.
Suddenly.
He felt movement outside the door. After opening the door, he found it was Feng Danxiao.
"Senior, may I ask why you are visiting so late at night?"
Lin Xiao looked curiously at the old man. He already knew his identity, the Old Ancestor of the Feng Noble Family, a terrifying seniority!
"Young Hero Lin, I apologize for disturbing you late at night."
Feng Danxiao showed a kind smile, looking at Lin Xiao with a gentle expression.
"This Old Fellow has come with a request."
Lin Xiao was slightly puzzled, "What is it?"
"In the main hall today, Young Hero Lin's Alchemy method was extremely profound, and it moved this Old Fellow deeply. May I ask if Young Hero Lin could offer some guidance? Young Hero, rest assured, there will be a generous reward afterwards!"
Feng Danxiao suppressed the excitement in his heart and stated his purpose.
Lin Xiao suddenly understood, so that's it!
His Alchemy method came from the Legacy of an Alchemy Grandmaster from another world, which was extremely tempting to Alchemists.
It's just... he couldn't teach it!
This Grandmaster-level Alchemy technique was forcibly engraved in his mind by the System; he only knew how to use it, not how to teach it!
"Senior, you flatter this Junior. It's just that this Alchemy method was passed down by my Master. Without his permission, this Junior dares not overstep."
Lin Xiao could only use the title of that nameless Master as an excuse. He couldn't possibly say that he only knew how to use it but not how to teach it!
"Is that so..."
Lin Xiao clearly felt that the old man in front of him seemed to have undergone a significant emotional shift instantly.
"Haha, it was this Old Fellow who was presumptuous. I apologize for the disturbance."
In just an instant, Feng Danxiao reverted to his previous demeanor, showing a kind expression and leaving.
But Lin Xiao possessed the Space-Time Divine Eyes!
He also nodded with a calm expression.
The next day, early morning.
"Lin Xiao, are you ready?"
"This Junior is already ready!"
"Then let's go!"
