In front of the Alchemist Association, Gu Li, Chi Lin, and Xiao Yan walked out of the association together. The four of them also stopped in their tracks. Gu Li looked at Xiao Yan with a smile on his face and said:
"Brother Yan Xiao, this old man still has some matters to attend to. Please forgive me for not seeing you off."
Xiao Yan also smiled and opened his mouth to speak:
"President Gu Li must be joking. This trip of mine is already worth it. There is no need to trouble the president. Since the president still has matters to attend to, I will take my leave first!"
Seeing this, Gu Li did not say anything more. However, there was some light flickering in his eyes.
He exchanged glances with Chi Lin, who was standing by the side. Both of them knew the other party's thoughts. However, in the end, Gu Li still shook his head slightly.
Immediately, his gaze turned and once again looked at Xiao Yan. There was a smile on his face. With a flip of his hand, a jade tablet appeared in his hand. He smiled at Xiao Yan and said:
"Today, I have seen that brother Yan Xiao's strength is extraordinary. Moreover, you are deeply involved in alchemy. This jade tablet shall be a gift to brother Yan Xiao. With this jade tablet, brother Yan Xiao will be equivalent to a nominal elder of our Alchemist Association. You can freely enter any place of our Alchemist Association!"
Xiao Yan's eyes flashed when he saw this. Was this considered to be roping him in early? However, he quite liked this condition. The corner of Xiao Yan's mouth curled into a smile. He was not reserved as he extended his hand and took it.
"In that case, many thanks to president Gu Li!"
Gu Li once again smiled when he saw this. Chi Lin also followed suit. With his shrewdness, he naturally saw through Gu Li's actions. However, he also praised Gu Li's quick-wittedness in his heart.
When Qin Zhong, who was standing beside Xiao Yan, saw this, his eyes were filled with rich envy. A nominal elder of the Alchemist Association. This kind of treatment was something that even that old fellow Li Gan did not have!
Although he was envious, that jade tablet ultimately belonged to Xiao Yan. Qin Zhong could only watch as Xiao Yan kept it in his pocket with a greedy expression on his face.
After delivering the gifts, Gu Li really didn't have anything else to say. After a few words of laughter, the few of them also left.
Chi Lin watched Xiao Yan slowly disappear from his sight. Only then did he let out a soft sigh. He turned his head to Gu Li and frowned slightly.
"Say, if you really mentioned that to him, would he help?"
When Gu Li heard this, she did not comment. She also looked up to the sky and sighed.
"If he is not willing, what can we do? We should just mention it. Since he has taken the item, he should be willing to help. No matter what, he will not lose out …"
"Moreover, he's a young man. At this age, it's precisely the time when his heart is hot-blooded. As long as he participates in the Alchemist Competition, he won't easily admit defeat!"
After saying these words, Chi Lin did not say anything else. His body turned and he took the lead to walk into the association. Not long after, Gu Li's figure also slowly disappeared from the spot.
Ever since those tier eight alchemists were chased out of the association by Gu Li, everything that happened in the Alchemist Association swiftly spread throughout the entire Ancient Savage City as though it had grown wings. Xiao Yan also once again became the focus of attention in the Ancient Savage City.
When Xiao Yan slowly walked on the main street, the surrounding crowd involuntarily turned their gazes towards Xiao Yan. Immediately, another wave of earth-shaking noises and discussions soared towards the sky.
"Quickly look, isn't that Yan Xiao! I heard that his strength has already stepped into the ranks of the elite half Martial Emperors! "
Earlier, someone saw Xiao Yan and cried out in surprise. However, before those words could completely fade, another person's mocking laughter was once again transmitted over, causing a portion of the surrounding people to involuntarily turn their gazes over.
"Heh! That was news from half a month ago! Did you see the direction that he came from? That is the territory of the Alchemist Association. The place that Yan Xiao had just headed to is that place! "
A wave of doubtful voices was once again emitted after this person's words sounded. The crowd also began to stir once again.
"What? Isn't Yan Xiao a training maniac? Why would he go to the Alchemist Association? Don't tell me that he was injured in the big battle half a month ago and went to buy medicinal pills? "
"Hee hee, injured? He has an overwhelming advantage against that old fellow Li Gan. How could he be injured? Moreover, with such a powerful expert like Old Luo guarding by his side, even if Li Gan had the guts of the heavens, he would not dare to have any thoughts about Yan Xiao!"
"I heard that the reason why Yan Xiao went to the Alchemist Association this time around is to take the test for a high tier alchemist!"
"I really did not expect that not only does Yan Xiao have great training talent, but even his alchemy skills are also at the forefront!"
The chaotic and noisy voices also caused Xiao Yan to feel helpless in his heart. He could only increase the speed of his footsteps. His body flashed and he had already rushed past the crowd and reached the end of his sight.
Qin Zhong, who was beside Xiao Yan, also curled the corners of his mouth impatiently. The noise of the crowd also caused his violent temper to be unable to endure it. If Xiao Yan was not by his side earlier, it was likely that he would have already been unable to control himself and take action.
At this moment, when he saw Xiao Yan swiftly dodge, the aura of Qin Zhong's entire body suddenly shook. The frightening aura that belonged to a three star Half Emperor also instantly attacked, causing the surrounding crowd to withdraw and avoid it.
… …
Xiao Yan, who had just returned to the inn, did not even have the time to catch his breath when a human figure appeared in front of his room. This also caused the expression on Xiao Yan's face to be slightly startled. However, it immediately turned into a smile on his face as he teased:
"Elder Xuan, why do you have the time to come to my place? Could it be that you were attracted by the news outside?"
The person who came was Elder Xuan of the Yunyin Pavilion.
When Elder Xuan heard Xiao Yan's teasing words, a smile appeared on his old face. His shriveled hand stroked his long beard as he replied with a smile:
"Haha, that is exactly what this old man meant!"
As his voice fell, the two of them laughed out loud in unison. Following which, Xiao Yan's expression turned serious as he smiled and asked Elder Xuan:
"Elder Xuan, you must have come here for something. If there is something, you might as well say it directly."
"Haha, Brother Yan Xiao really goes straight to the point. Haha. Since this is the case, then I shall not beat around the bush and say any more nonsense. I have not come here today for any important matter. I only wish to invite Brother Yan Xiao over."
Hearing this, Xiao Yan could not help but raise his eyebrows. He looked at Elder Xuan, only to find that there was a hint of a smile in the depths of his eyes.
Xiao Yan's face became even more doubtful when he heard this. Old Xuan smiled when he saw this. His eyes looked at Xiao Yan with a meaningful expression as he continued speaking.
"This invitation is not a big deal. It is just that my master wants to see you."
