In the evening, Mu Qingxiao followed behind Xiao Yan and arrived at Xiao Zhan's room. After gently knocking on the door, a calm and gentle voice came from within.
"Come in."
Sitting at the table, Xiao Zhan looked at the thin piece of paper in his hand. His eyes were filled with anger because on the paper was the distribution of resources for the younger generation but Xiao Yan was not included.
"Yan Er, it's already so late and you're still awake. What's the matter?"
Hiding the paper, Xiao Zhan immediately raised his head and looked at Xiao Yan's young face. His voice was gentle but when he saw Mu Qingxiao behind him, his eyes were filled with confusion.
"Father, I have something to discuss with you."
"Hm?"
Xiao Yan looked at Mu Qingxiao and asked: "Father, do you still remember the disappearance of my Dou Qi a few years ago?"
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan said in a low voice: "Of course I remember. It's because of this …"
Mu Qingxiao stood to the side and didn't say anything. Looking at the conversation between father and son, Xiao Zhan's eyes were filled with love. It was clear that Xiao Yan had met a good father.
"This is my senior apprentice brother. Because there's a problem with my cultivation method, there's also a problem with the Dou Qi in my body. The sect sent him here to guide me in my cultivation for a year. During this year, he'll be staying with the family."
After a round of planning, the three of them finally came up with a flawless plan.
"Senior?" Regaining his senses, Xiao Zhan nodded his head in confusion.
No wonder the young man in front of him came to the Xiao Clan and kept looking at Yan Er in the meeting hall. So he was his senior. But when did Yan Er become a disciple of someone else and why didn't he mention it?
"But is it really okay to let this young man guide Yan Er?" Xiao Zhan thought to himself.
As if seeing through Xiao Zhan's doubts, Xiao Yan said: "Father, don't underestimate my senior just because he is young. He is a Dou Huang!"
As soon as Xiao Zhan finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room became tense.
Xiao Zhan's face froze and he swallowed his saliva. It was hard to believe that the young man in front of him was a Dou Huang. A Dou Huang stood at the peak of the Jia Ma Empire.
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhan's body shook. What kind of terrifying existence could teach such a monstrous disciple? With such a terrifying force supporting him, his son's future was limitless!
"Your Excellency …"
Seeing that Xiao Zhan was a little reserved, Mu Qingxiao shook her head and smiled, "Xiao Yan is my junior. Uncle Xiao can just call me Qing Xiao. I'll have to trouble Uncle Xiao to temporarily stay in the Xiao Clan."
"Haha, since you are Yan 'er's senior brother, you can treat this place as your own home, no need to be so polite …"
.....
.....
The Xiao Family's days were as peaceful as ever. Xiao Zhan's personality was also very steady. He didn't announce Mu Qingxiao's information, nor did he explain their relationship. Instead, he found a random reason to dodge it.
No one knew that the small Xiao Clan was actually hiding two Dou Huangs.
In the following days, Yao Chen began to teach the two of them about refining medicine. Although Mu Qingxiao was a Dou Huang, she had never come into contact with refining medicine. Naturally, she knew nothing about it. Everything had to be learned from the basics.
Fortunately, Mu Qingxiao not only had a heaven-defying aptitude in cultivation, but also in the field of alchemy. Often, he would be able to understand with just a hint. With the Nine Heavens Glazed Flame, it was even easier for him to refine medicine.
While Xiao Yan was learning alchemy, he couldn't neglect his training.
While Xiao Yan was training, Yao Chen taught Mu Qingxiao more advanced alchemy knowledge. Seeing his disciple's aptitude, Yao Chen was happier than anyone else.
At this moment, an old voice came from outside the room, "Third Young Master, the Clan Leader invites you to the main hall!"
Yao Chen nodded and instantly entered the ring. Mu Qingxiao frowned. His expression was strange as he glanced at Xiao Yan and said, "This is your family matter. I shall not participate. You can go by yourself." Xiao Yan nodded.
Xiao Yan was a little scared by his stare. He awkwardly touched his tender face and secretly said, "Does this guy have some special fetish?"
"Yes, I'll go now."
Xiao Yan casually replied and walked out of the room. He smiled and said to a green clothed old man outside the room, "Let's go, Housekeeper Mo."
Looking at the young man's immature face, the green-clothed old man nodded his head in a friendly manner. The moment he turned around, a trace of undetectable regret flashed across his turbid old eyes. He quietly said, "Ah, with Third Young Master's talent in the past, he should have become an outstanding Dou Zhe long ago. What a pity."
What made him feel strange was that the Third Young Master had been hiding in his room all day. It would be fine if he was with a girl, but hiding in a room with a man, it was hard to avoid people's imaginations.
Thinking of this, the old housekeeper shivered and goosebumps appeared all over his body.
After Xiao Yan left, Mu Qingxiao also disappeared from the bedroom. In the blink of an eye, he was already on the roof of the Xiao Clan's main hall.
At this moment, other than him, there was another old man hiding on the roof. It was the Dou Huang who was secretly protecting Gu Xun Er. Mu Qingxiao smiled at him and ignored him.
Ling Ying, on the other hand, had goosebumps all over his body. He seriously stared at Mu Qingxiao. Only when the latter arrived on the roof did he react. From this, it could be seen that her method of hiding was much better than his.
In other words, if Mu Qingxiao's target was him, even if he was not dead, he would have been seriously injured. However, he quickly realized that the latter's target was not him. His tense heart also relaxed.
At this moment, the shock in Ling Ying's heart was no less than a super earthquake. At such a young age, he was already a Dou Huang. Which great faction was grooming him? Why would he appear here? What was his goal?
Mu Qingxiao ignored Ling Ying. His gaze was placed on the hall. There were quite a number of people in the hall. Most of them were from the Xiao Clan. Xiao Zhan and the elders of the Xiao Clan sat at the top. The other group of people had a cloud silver sword pattern on their sleeves.
During these days, he had not only learned alchemy from Yao Chen but also learned quite a bit about the situation in the Jia Ma Empire. The cloud silver sword pattern represented the Misty Cloud Sect, the overlord of the Jia Ma Empire.
Seeing the people from the Misty Cloud Sect, Mu Qingxiao knew that things were as he had expected. He immediately lost interest. Before he left, he involuntarily glanced at Gu Xun Er who was sitting beside Xiao Yan.
After thinking about it, Mu Qingxiao decided not to snatch the Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame for the time being. It was easy to deal with the Dou Huang in front of him and snatch the Heavenly Flame. However, the Gu Clan was a great faction in the Dou Qi continent.
Among them, there were as many Dou Huangs as dogs. Dou Zongs and Dou Zuns were all over the place. There was even a Dou Sheng that was currently out of his reach. They were definitely not people that he could offend now.
Mu Qingxiao was a rational person. Confidence was a good thing but blind confidence was stupidity. If he snatched the Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame now, he would definitely be chased by the Gu Clan. Just thinking about it gave him a headache.
Shaking his head slightly, Mu Qingxiao turned around and left. On the other hand, Ling Ying, who was hiding on the roof, appeared to be deep in thought.
