Chapter 94 Sweet Treats

Upon hearing this, Jia Xingtian was momentarily stunned, then nodded.

Indeed, he had seen Gu He, the Dan King, weakened after refining pills before.

Every time he refined a sixth-grade pill, his Dou Qi would be almost entirely depleted.

Jia Xingtian silently thought to himself.

At this moment, the figure of Haibodong descended from the sky.

"Has that kid finished his assessment?" Haibodong asked Fama.

Upon hearing this, both Jia Xingtian and Fama were stunned. They exchanged a glance and saw the astonishment in each other's eyes.

Unable to hold back, Fama asked, "Ice Old Man, do you know him?"

Haibodong gave Fama a faint glance, then nodded.

"Of course, I'm back this time because of him."

Then, ignoring the two, they both waited at the door.

After a while, Su Yun finally finished recovering.

The three old fogies from the Jia Empire also walked over.

Su Yun looked somewhat surprised to see Jia Xingtian and Haibodong, but upon second thought, he understood.

Haibodong didn't need much explanation; he naturally came to see how he was doing.

And as the guardian of the royal family, Jia Xingtian would pay close attention to various situations in the Jia Empire. A sixth-grade alchemist suddenly appearing naturally caught his attention.

Haibodong walked behind Su Yun, making his position clear.

Seeing this, Jia Xingtian's astonishment deepened. Taking a deep breath, he had to leave a good impression in front of this sixth-grade alchemist no matter what.

"I am Jia Xingtian. May I ask how to address this esteemed master?"

Su Yun nodded.

"I am called Zhang Xiaofan."

Jia Xingtian looked at Su Yun's overly youthful face, revealing the same shock as Fama's.

Su Yun was not surprised by this. If he were to reveal his true face, they would probably have a heart attack.

Jia Xingtian suppressed his emotions and congratulated Su Yun.

"Congratulations, Master Zhang, for successfully refining a sixth-grade pill and becoming a sixth-grade alchemist."

Su Yun nodded and exchanged a few pleasantries with the two.

After a while, when the pleasantries were almost over, Jia Xingtian asked, "I wonder, Master, have you been to Heiyan City recently?"

Su Yun was taken aback but then remembered his time in Heiyan City, refining the Breaking Misery Pill for Haibodong.

"Yes, I did stay in Heiyan City for a while."

Jia Xingtian understood.

"A few days ago, I received news that there was an anomaly in Heiyan City, suspected to be the phenomenon of a sixth-grade pill being formed. It must have been your doing, Master Zhang."

Su Yun nodded, admitting to the matter.

Afterwards, Fama handed over the robes of a fifth and sixth-grade alchemist to Su Yun. Su Yun and Haibodong then left the Alchemist Guild.

Inside the guild, Fama and Jia Xingtian were still discussing Su Yun, the sixth-grade alchemist.

"Fama, do you know anything about this Master Zhang?" Jia Xingtian attempted to glean some information from Fama.

Fama shook his head.

"I'm not sure. He seems to have appeared out of nowhere, unlike someone from the surrounding empires. In my opinion, he's either not from a secluded family or he's from the Central Province. In terms of alchemy, the strongest place in the entire continent is the Dan Tower in the Central Province."

Upon hearing this, Jia Xingtian nodded.

When he was young, he had also traveled to the Central Province and understood how prosperous it was.

Such a monster, indeed, could not be someone from their remote corner.

"I just don't know how Ice Old Man managed to get involved with such a person."

Jia Xingtian furrowed his brows.

Fama clicked his tongue, well aware of what his old friend was thinking.

"Alright, you may treat the Jia Empire as a treasure, but others may not necessarily hold us in high regard. He's so young and has already reached the level of a sixth-grade alchemist. It won't take him long to become a seventh-grade alchemist. I just watched his alchemy technique, and he's probably much stronger than the Dan King Gu He. Such a character's true stage is in the Central Province."

Just paranoia, Fama shook his head inwardly.

Jia Xingtian, having his thoughts exposed, wasn't embarrassed. Instead, he was quite interested in the information Fama had just revealed.

"Fama, are you serious? This person's alchemy skills are stronger than the Dan King Gu He?"

Jia Xingtian's face showed a hint of disbelief. In his view, someone so young achieving the level of a sixth-grade alchemist should only be at the beginning of that level.

Fama, upon hearing this, recounted how Su Yun had effortlessly refined the pills in one attempt.

Only then did Jia Xingtian have to believe it, a hint of schadenfreude flashing across his face.

"If Gu He knew that his proud alchemy skills were surpassed by such a young man, I wonder how he would feel."

Heh, he probably wouldn't feel good at all.

Fama twitched his eye corner, unsure of what to say.

...........

On the other side, Su Yun and Haibodong returned to the Mittel Family. Little Fairy and Qing Lin were waiting in the hall.

When Little Fairy saw Su Yun, she directly threw herself into his arms.

After embracing for a while, they separated.

Qing Lin had already been taken away by Haibodong, and Su Yun sat Little Fairy on his lap, feeling the soft touch from his legs.

This little girl is growing up more and more...

Upon hearing this, Little Fairy took out a bunch of small toys and snacks from her spatial ring.

"The day before yesterday, Qing Lin and I spent the whole day in the imperial capital, but we didn't go out yesterday."

"You didn't come back for a day, and I thought you went on another long journey and wouldn't be back for a long time."

This sentence was held in Little Fairy's heart, and then she took out a string of candied haws, took a bite, then put it near Su Yun's mouth.

"It's very sweet."

Little Fairy's cheeks were slightly red, but her tone remained calm.

Su Yun took a bite, smiling.

"Yeah, very sweet."

Upon hearing this, a happy smile appeared on Little Fairy's face.

Little Fairy took another bite and then put the candied haws near Su Yun's mouth again.

Su Yun shook his head with a smile, his eyes falling on Little Fairy's cherry lips.

"The one in your mouth should be sweeter."

As he spoke, before Little Fairy could react, he leaned down.

"Mmm..."

At night, Su Yun returned to his room.

Before he went to the Tager Desert, Little Fairy always slept with him.

However, now it seems that she and Qing Lin are sharing a room, probably to take care of Qing Lin. The two girls have a good relationship, which is a good thing.

Su Yun shook his head, feeling a bit sorry for his warm and soft pillow.

Cross-legged, Su Yun began to cultivate.

With his current strength, he doesn't need much sleep. He can sleep every twenty days or so. As for the rest of the time, he should use it to cultivate.

He doesn't pride himself on his current strength.

It's okay to be in the Jia Empire, but in the Central Province, he's nothing.
