When Xiao Yan woke up in the tea room, Xiao Xuan had already returned to his body. Li Chengxu had once again recovered the warm smile he had when the few of them first met. Luo Jin, on the other hand, had an expression as though nothing had happened. At this moment, the gazes of the two were locked onto Xiao Yan, as though they were waiting for him to speak first.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan was slightly startled. He lowered his eyebrows and looked at the empty tea table in front of him. Only then did he understand in his heart that what had happened was not a dream. However, Li Chengxu's mood seemed to have recovered for some unknown reason.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan involuntarily threw his gaze at Luo Jin by the side. If he had to give an answer, it was likely that only Luo Jin would be able to do so. Although Xiao Xuan was a rank 7 formation master, this was after all the territory of the Burning Flame Valley. If they were to really fight, even Luo Jin would not be able to protect him.
"Ke ke, mister Xiao Yan, the matter earlier was indeed a misunderstanding. The thing that you need is of great interest to my Burning Flame Valley. The old me acted in a moment of agitation. Fortunately, I did not hurt mister. I hope that you will not blame me."
Saying this, Li Chengxu actually stood up and cupped his hands together towards Xiao Yan. If it were not for his status, it was likely that he would have bent his waist to express his apology.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan did not dare to slight him in the slightest. He hurriedly stood up and welcomed him. Regardless of whether it was right or wrong, just Li Chengxu's cultivation was not something that he could accept.
"It is good that the misunderstanding has been resolved. However, this junior really cannot accept such a great gift from elder."
Xiao Yan hurriedly supported Li Chengxu. The two of them, one old and one young, immediately became courteous to each other. They chatted with a simple smile, as though the unpleasantness from earlier had never happened.
When the two of them sat down once again, the expressions on their faces had once again become serious. After all, this matter concerned the 'Core Body Transforming Milk'. Even Li Chengxu did not dare to be the slightest bit negligent.
Next, Xiao Yan told Li Chengxu in front of him about the true reason why his group had come to the extreme south this time around. Of course, he naturally avoided the topic of the 'Woeful Poison Body' and used another reason. Li Chengxu only nodded in an understanding manner when he heard Xiao Yan's words. He mused for a moment before speaking.
"So that's how it is. According to mister Xiao Yan, I'm afraid that only the 'Earth Core Body Elixir' can save your friend. No wonder mister would come here."
At this point, Li Chengxu unconsciously glanced at Luo Jin, who acted as if nothing had happened. Even if Xiao Yan had thought of the Geocentric Body Elixir, without Luo Jin, it was likely that they would not have been able to reach this place and the incident earlier would not have happened.
"If your noble valley can help me obtain a drop of Geocentric Body Milk, then this junior will definitely take out an item of equivalent value in exchange!"
Ignoring the situation of the two people in front of him, Xiao Yan went straight to the point. At the same time, he bowed deeply to Li Chengxu.
Seeing this, Li Chengxu hurriedly waved his sleeve and helped Xiao Yan up. Seeing the sincere manner on the latter's face, Li Chengxu's heart could not bear it.
With such a character, in addition to such outstanding talent and intelligence, it was likely that it would be his Burning Flame Valley's loss if he did not help. Moreover, the situation in the extreme south was currently changing secretly. If he was able to rope in a young member of the younger generation with excellent talent at this moment, in addition to the rank 7 formation master in Xiao Yan's body, all of these would be of great help to his Burning Flame Valley. However …
"Ugh, I won't hide it from mister Xiao Yan. I'm afraid that it is difficult for this old man to make a decision regarding the 'Earth Core Body Elixir'."
The expression on Xiao Yan's face immediately changed when these words were spoken. Even Luo Jin by the side frowned slightly.
"Elder Li, as the First Elder of the Burning Flame Valley, you are in charge of all the big and small matters in the valley. Don't tell me that even the 'Earth Core Body Elixir' …"
"If it was in the past, it might not be a problem. However, now … it is extremely difficult!"
Although Li Chengxu was unwilling to admit it, he still helplessly shook his head when he heard Luo Jin's words. He let out a long sigh. After hesitating for a moment, he finally opened his mouth once again.
"The two of you should also know that my Burning Flame Valley would gift the Earth Core Body Elixir to the first place in every Sect Grand Competition. Moreover, that person would become a person that my Burning Flame Valley would focus on grooming. However, that was in the past. In recent years, for some unknown reason, the production of the 'Earth Core Body Elixir' in my valley has sharply decreased. By this year, there is no longer a single drop of 'Earth Core Body Elixir' left. The reason why the Valley Chief has not been present in the last few Sect Grand Competitions is because he has been waiting for the formation of the 'Earth Core Body Elixir'. Logically speaking, if the 'Earth Core Body Elixir' is formed, he should arrive at the location of the finals at the latest the day after tomorrow. However, if he does not appear, then I'm afraid …"
After speaking until this point, Li Chengxu did not speak any further. Xiao Yan and Luo Jin already understood. In other words, whether they could obtain the 'Earth Core Body Elixir' would completely depend on the day after tomorrow. If the Burning Flame Valley's Valley Chief appeared, Xiao Yan would naturally have hope of obtaining the 'Earth Core Body Elixir'. However, if not, their trip this time would have been in vain.
"In addition, there is one more thing that I hope Mister Xiao Yan can understand. Other than you, Qin Yan is also determined to obtain this' Earth Core Body Elixir '. Although you know how to barter, Qin Yan is a disciple of my Burning Flame Valley. Therefore, whether or not you can obtain the' Earth Core Body Elixir 'will depend on your luck."
When Li Chengxu's words were spoken, Xiao Yan's heart instantly shook. In this way, even if he really obtained the 'Earth Core Body Elixir', there would still be a layer of difficulty placed in front of him. From the looks of it, he still needed to defeat Qin Yan before that!
Taking in a deep breath, Xiao Yan's fists gradually clenched tightly under his sleeves.
When Xiao Yan and Luo Jin left the tea room, the moonlight had already risen to the sky. The thin mist of the mountain was like green smoke that pervaded the air. Under the moonlight, various patterns were drawn on the ground through the branches of the trees. Lanterns curled up between the pavilions and pavilions. From afar, it was a unique scenery.
When Xiao Yan and Luo Jin returned to their loft, the others had already returned to their rooms to rest. After all, they had been personally invited by the Burning Flame Valley's First Elder. Naturally, they did not think that there would be any accidents. Naturally, they also did not expect that such a shocking thing had actually happened not long ago.
After Luo Jin returned to his room, Xiao Yan walked out of the loft. The tip of his foot gently pressed on the ground and his body leaped onto the roof. At this moment, the Little Fairy Doctor was sitting there. Her two jade-like hands were supporting her chin as she gazed at the leisurely night scene in the distance.
When Xiao Yan and Luo Jin returned, they had already discovered the Little Fairy Doctor. However, Luo Jin did not say anything and Xiao Yan also pretended not to see her. When the two of them saw her at this moment, the Little Fairy Doctor immediately parted her mouth and revealed a charming smile. She indicated for Xiao Yan to sit down. The latter did not stand on ceremony and sat down beside the Little Fairy Doctor. He raised his head and gazed at the bright moon that was emitting a lustrous white light in the night sky. He could not help but sigh in his heart. It seemed that compared to the bright stars that filled the sky, the moonlight was always more difficult to surpass.
