Within the spacious alchemy room, human figures were scattered all over the place, each standing on their own. The originally lively place appeared to be completely silent at this very moment. Shock was written all over everyone's faces. Their dumbstruck expressions revealed the shock in their hearts.
Numerous pairs of eyes stared intently at the black-robed man in the middle of the square. They had never imagined that this black-robed man, who looked ordinary, would actually possess such great strength. The four black figures, who they did not detect, were actually unable to last even a single round in the hands of this black-robed young man. The four of them joined forces, but they were still like decorations. They were completely crushed by the latter's great strength in an instant. This kind of great strength could really be described as terrifying!
The thing that shocked them the most was that this black-robed man actually dared to attack this red-dressed young lady!
"This … this fellow, is he crazy!"
"He … he actually dared to hit Eldest Young Lady Xu!"
The silence in the surroundings continued for a long time. Finally, numerous voices that were filled with disbelief were spat out successively from the mouths of all the alchemists present in the surroundings. This was the part that shocked them the most. No matter what, they'd never imagined that there would actually be someone who dared to make a move against this Great Aunt in Xuan City. Moreover, this person had even slapped her proudest face!
"You … you …"
It was only at this moment that the young lady, who had gradually recovered from the discussions of the crowd, hurriedly looked at the black-robed young man in front of her. A terrified expression swiftly surfaced in her teary almond-shaped eyes. At the same time, it was also filled with an expression of disbelief.
Xu Yao's slender jade-like hand trembled as she lifted it up and covered half of her rapidly swollen face. The fresh blood at the corner of her mouth stained the young lady's wrist. Blood flowed, causing the young lady to appear even more pitiful at this moment. It caused people to have the misconception that they could not help but want to embrace her.
Seeing the young lady's pitiful appearance, the expression on Xiao Yan's face was indifferent. Within his pair of dark black eyes, there was an icy-cold expression.
"At such a young age, your character is actually so vicious. You do not repent and actually want to repay kindness with enmity. Why, do you think that you are so great just because you are a tier nine alchemist? Just based on you, a tier nine alchemist, what can you be considered as in this continent? You are merely a tier nine alchemist, yet you actually dare to be arrogant and confuse right and wrong here. Just based on you, are you worthy of being an alchemist?! "
Xiao Yan's words were sharp. Each time he spoke a sentence, he would take half a step forward, forcing the young lady to step back in horror. Her pretty face had lost its color. In the end, her legs became weak. Soon after, she sat on the ground. Her pretty face had become incomparably pale.
"You … you …"
The young lady's face was filled with fear. The black-robed young man in front of her could be said to be the most frightening person she had ever seen since she was young. Before seeing Xiao Yan, everyone was extremely respectful towards her. Even those who were stronger than her would similarly reveal a humble smile on their faces when they saw her. Just like the people present at this moment. Before Xiao Yan took action, everyone's eyes were filled with respect when they looked at her. She was like the most fragrant flower among thousands of flowers, being sought after by everyone, like the moon surrounded by stars. It was as if the saying was referring to her.
However, looking at it now, when the young lady once again cast her eyes over, those gazes that were originally surrounding her had completely shifted to Xiao Yan in front of her. Originally, she still wanted to place her hopes on these people, hoping that they would definitely take action for her. However, it was a pity that the stamen of a flower in a greenhouse could see the bright sunlight outside through the glass. However, when this thin layer of glass was broken, she was finally able to truly feel the ice-cold wind that was filled under the sunlight.
"Humph."
After giving her a slap and lecturing her with words, the anger that was suppressed in Xiao Yan's heart gradually subsided. Immediately, he could not be bothered with this girl. His body turned around and prepared to leave.
However …
The instant Xiao Yan turned around, a powerful energy pillar was like lightning behind him. In the blink of an eye, it penetrated through the empty space. The instant Xiao Yan turned around, a sharp force had already appeared in front of Xiao Yan. Its target was the spot between his brows.
"Buzz!"
However, in the next instant, when the energy pillar was about to hit the spot between Xiao Yan's brows, the expression on Xiao Yan's face suddenly turned ice-cold. At the same time, a majestic Spiritual Strength swiftly surged out from between Xiao Yan's brows, forcefully blocking the energy pillar that was about to hit the spot between his brows.
After doing all this, Xiao Yan's expression was ice-cold as he slowly lifted his gaze. He looked at the spot where the crowd had opened up. At this very moment, there was a handsome young man in luxurious clothes standing there.
At this moment, the latter was also using a pair of extremely cold eyes to stare intently at Xiao Yan. The expression on his handsome face was extremely gloomy. Deep within his brown eyes, an extremely cold killing intent was especially obvious.
When this young man appeared, everyone present immediately turned their gazes towards the latter. Soon after, a fearful expression appeared in the eyes of everyone present. Clearly, in the eyes of these people, this young man was also an extremely dangerous person.
Seeing that the black-robed man in front of him had actually blocked his attack, the expression in the young man's eyes involuntarily hardened. Under such an urgent situation just now, this black-robed man was actually able to react in time. However, just this point alone was enough to prove that the other party was not an ordinary person.
Originally, he had wanted to show off in front of the young girl and also make a good start for his following plan. However, from the looks of it, it was a little troublesome!
After thinking for a while in his heart, the young man standing in front of everyone once again lifted his gaze and looked at Xiao Yan opposite him.
"May I know who you are? Don't you know that this is my Xuan City?"
A somewhat feminine voice was slowly spat out from the young man's mouth. The man's hands were slowly tied behind his back. Under the cover of his sleeves, surging Dou Qi secretly gathered in his palms.
"Since this is Xuan City, it proves that I have not come to the wrong place."
Xiao Yan's expression did not change. An icy-cold chill slowly gathered in his pair of pitch-black eyes. The words that came out of his mouth appeared unusually calm.
"Since you know that this is Xuan City and still dare to hurt a member of my Lin family, aren't you looking down on my Lin family too much!"
The instant Xiao Yan's words sounded, the young man opposite him immediately cried out angrily. At the same time, his feet stomped heavily on the ground. Powerful Dou Qi immediately gushed out from under his feet. In almost an instant, the young man's body turned into a ray of light and arrived in front of Xiao Yan in the blink of an eye. Soon after, the palm that was behind his back suddenly appeared in front of him. A huge amount of Dou Qi energy swiftly gathered in his palm and at the same time, a dazzling light erupted.
His palm was aimed directly at Xiao Yan's head. He had accumulated strength for an attack. It was obvious that he planned to rely on a surprise attack to kill the latter in one strike. Such a method could be said to be ruthless.
However, even though this was the case, the expression on Xiao Yan's face still remained calm without any ripples.
When the palm of the young man in front of him was about to land on Xiao Yan's head, Xiao Yan finally raised his head. At the same time, he opened his mouth. Immediately, a soul-shaking cry was emitted from Xiao Yan's mouth.
The earth-shaking cry was deliberately wrapped by Spiritual Strength as it was emitted in a vast and mighty manner. The young man in front of him did not have the opportunity to dodge and received it all. Immediately, his entire soul suddenly shook. An intense tearing pain wildly surged out from deep within the young man's soul, causing the muscles on his face to instantly distort. His face was flushed red and his entire body appeared to have transformed into a statue that was frozen in midair.
"Get lost!"
With a low cry, the young man's body immediately flew backwards uncontrollably. In the end, he was caught by a few old men who appeared from the void. Only then did he manage to stabilize his body. However, when he looked at his face again, it had already become deathly pale.
The young man felt a sweetness in his throat and the expression on his face rapidly became one of shock. He did not expect that with his strength of a five star Half Martial Emperor, he would actually be unable to last even a single exchange in the hands of this black robed person. Immediately, the young man came to an understanding in his heart. This black robed young man who appeared to be very young was not someone that could be easily provoked.
"Brother Ran, save me!"
It was also at this moment that the red-dressed young lady behind Xiao Yan suddenly let out a sharp cry as she climbed to her feet. Her mouth was hysterical as she went all out to beg for help from the young man whose face was currently pale. The appearance of the latter appeared to have allowed this young lady, who was about to fall into a quagmire, to grab a life-saving straw at a critical moment. However, at the same time that this young lady cried out without caring about anything, she did not notice the disgust that was revealed in the eyes of the young man opposite her.
If it was not for this young lady's extraordinary status, he would not be bothered to care about her life or death. However, from the looks of it, this black robed young man in front of him was clearly not a kind person. Moreover, he had injured the young lady in a red dress. It was likely impossible for this matter to be resolved peacefully.
"Dammit! This lowly girl is truly reckless. Why didn't she die in his hands! "
The young man fiercely cursed in his heart. However, he also knew that before his plan was completed, even if this young lady in front of him was to die, she absolutely could not die in this Xuan City. In other words, no matter what, he had to protect this girl's life.
"Teacher Quan, I'm afraid that I can only rely on you for this matter."
After taking a deep breath, the young man forcefully endured the intense pain that was emitted from his body and said in a low and hoarse voice.
Hearing the young man's words, the old man in a brocade robe behind him also nodded his head. Immediately, a pair of muddy old eyes slightly lifted and a sharp gaze directly looked at Xiao Yan opposite him.
From the way this black robed person acted just now, it was obvious that the other party was also an alchemist. Moreover, his Spiritual Strength was definitely above that of a rank one alchemist. This was because this young master of his family was a rank one alchemist. Since this was the case, this black robed young man in front of him was probably at least a rank two alchemist!
When he thought of this, the old man's eyes could not help but slightly focus. Such a young rank two alchemist. This was probably an extremely rare existence even in the Alchemist Alliance!
"Could it be that he is really someone from the Alchemist Alliance?"
The old man could not help but secretly exclaim in his heart. If this black robed person in front of him was really someone from the Alchemist Alliance, it was likely that even his Lin Family would not be able to easily recruit him!
"I am Lin Quan and I am the deacon of the Lin Family in Xuan City. The previous matter was due to my young master's recklessness. I hope that mister can be magnanimous and forgive him!"
Just as everyone present thought that this old man would directly attack, the old man instead heavily cupped his hands towards Xiao Yan and apologized to Xiao Yan for the previous matter.
The appearance of this scene could be said to be out of everyone's expectations. Even a similarly shocked expression flashed across Xiao Yan's face. He did not expect that this old man was actually rather rational. Otherwise, he would probably have attacked again.
"No matter, I don't mind. I'm just afraid that your young master …"
Xiao Yan's expression was calm. His pitch-black eyes stared at the ghastly pale young master of the Lin Family. From the start until now, the other party had continuously mentioned the name of the Lin Family. It seems like this Lin Family was not ordinary in Xuan City!
"Haha, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. Just now, when I saw these fellows being beaten up, I thought that something had happened to my junior sister. In a moment of desperation, I dealt a heavy blow to mister. However, now that everyone is safe and sound, I can be at ease."
Just as Xiao Yan's words left his mouth, the old man called Lin Quan hurriedly gave a look to the young man behind him. When the latter saw this, he forcefully supported his body and hurriedly laughed dryly at Xiao Yan.
"Brother Lin Ran, he hit me. Why did you …"
"Junior sister, you brat. Master usually does not restrain you and always causes trouble. Treat today's matter as a lesson. Hurry up and come back!"
Before Xu Yao's words sounded, the young man called Lin Ran instantly looked at the latter. At the same time, he interrupted the latter's words. The expression in his eyes also appeared somewhat stern.
When Xu Yao saw this, the originally ghastly pale expression on her pretty face suddenly became startled. Even her entire body could not help but tremble. Only then did she hurriedly run towards Lin Ran with a trembling heart. This time, Xiao Yan did not have any intention of attacking again.
Since the other party had already apologized to him, it could be considered as giving both parties a way out. If he continued to attack, this matter would not be so easily resolved.
"Haha, I am Lin Ran, the young master of the Lin Family in Xuan City. May I know if mister …"
Walking forward, Lin Ran smiled and cupped his hands towards Xiao Yan. It was as if he had forgotten about the previous matter and his entire body had become relaxed.
"Just a nameless person. There's nothing much to say."
Xiao Yan's expression was indifferent. He would not give any face to this kind of person who changed his face faster than flipping a book.
"Uh …"
Hearing this, the latter could not help but be slightly startled. Exchanging glances with the old man beside him, a trace of resentment involuntarily flashed across his eyes.
"Haha, since that's the case, I will take my leave first. I wish mister a pleasant trip!"
Lin Ran said with a smile that did not reach his eyes. The last sentence from his mouth sounded rather horrifying.
Immediately, Lin Ran carried Xu Yao, whose pretty face was filled with shock, and swiftly left this place. Only Xiao Yan and the other alchemists present remained standing in the same spot.
After a long while, when the group of people left, Xiao Yan withdrew his gaze. At the same time, his tone was calm as he spoke once again.
"You have watched the show for so long. Don't you plan to come out and meet me?"
