Another morning arrived, and Su Yun transformed into the guise of Zhang Xiaofan, intending to head to the Alchemist Guild in the Imperial Capital.
Actively seeking help from the Nalan Family wasn't his style.
After all, the Xiao Family was quite special.
What he did previously, actively seeking cooperation with the Xiao Family, was already in the past.
The layout in the Xiao Family, as an investment in Xiao Yan, had been completed long before Han Li left Wutan City.
All that was left was to wait for the crops to grow and then reap them.
Actually, he preferred it when others came to seek his help.
He only needed to take the alchemy guild assessment, display his Strange Fire, and Nalan Jie would naturally come to him, begging for his treatment.
As for the risk of revealing too high of an alchemist level and strong soul power, attracting people from the Soul Hall, he wasn't worried.
During this period, the Soul Hall's actions were relatively restrained. Only when a powerful fighter with strong soul power died and formed a Soul Essence would they come to harvest.
Of course, this wasn't why Su Yun wasn't afraid of the Soul Hall's experts.
The secret technique obtained from the memories of the Clean Lotus Demon Saint and the system space were.
People from the Soul Hall were always hunting for Soul Essences to create Soul Origins.
But in fact, people from the Soul Hall themselves were excellent materials!
Hehehe...
An evil smile appeared on Su Yun's face.
After absorbing the Seven Illusory Azure Spirit Saliva, his soul power would surely reach the Profound Realm Perfection.
By then, his soul power alone would be able to match a Dou King.
The secret technique created by the Clean Lotus Demon Saint was extremely astonishing in its effects. It was a genuine soul technique that utilized soul power.
Its restraining effect on people from the Soul Hall was extremely significant.
Once executed, as long as the person from the Soul Hall's soul power didn't exceed his, they would be completely at his mercy!
"Brother, are you going out?"
The little fairy noticed that Su Yun had changed his appearance again, pouting.
She had planned to go out with Su Yun.
The Imperial Capital was so big; there must be many fun places to visit.
Su Yun reached up and patted the little fairy's head, rubbing her nose.
"You stay with Qing Lin obediently at home. I'll take you out to play for a few days when I come back."
Su Yun smiled.
The little fairy puffed up her cheeks, expressing her understanding and said,
"Then I'll go out with Qing Lin."
With that said, the little fairy ran into the room to find Qing Lin.
Su Yun was somewhat worried that something might happen to the two of them.
He found Haibodong and asked him to dispatch strong members of the Mittel family to secretly protect them.
Haibodong nodded upon hearing this.
He could see that Su Yun valued these two girls very much and naturally wouldn't neglect them.
"I'll handle it. You can rest assured."
Su Yun nodded, then went to the alchemy guild.
After Haibodong watched Su Yun leave, he found Mittel Tengshan and explained the situation to him.
He had just returned to the Mittel family and was not very familiar with the members of the family, so letting Mittel Tengshan handle it would be more secure.
Upon hearing this, Mittel Tengshan couldn't help but ask,
"Old Hai, I don't know what the identities of those three are that you are so concerned about."
He had been wanting to ask about this for a long time. Through observing these past two days, he had sensed something amiss.
This Dou King powerhouse, Haibodong, seemed to regard that young man who didn't look like much as the main figure!
This idea made him feel incredulous, absurd even, and he even doubted whether he was feeling wrong.
"Identity? How would I know?"
Haibodong's face remained calm, showing no expression.
Mittel Tengshan was taken aback, not understanding what Haibodong meant.
"Alright, don't guess randomly.
I really don't know."
Haibodong sighed and went to the window, looking at the white clouds in the sky.
That kid became a Sixth-Grade Alchemist at such a young age. His identity was definitely not simple.
Although Haibodong is not an alchemist, he still understands the difficulties of alchemy.
Talent, resources, and guidance from a master are indispensable.
The true face of that kid was already revealed to him in Wutan City.
Even now, he still can't believe it.
The face under that human skin mask turned out to be that of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy!
This world is simply insane!
There must be a powerful force standing behind him, and an unfathomable teacher!
A person from humble origins couldn't possibly have such excellent combat skills, couldn't possibly possess such advanced techniques!
Haibodong regained his senses and looked towards Mitel Tengshan.
"I only know that kid is a sixth-grade alchemist."
Haibodong's calm words struck Mitel Tengshan like thunder.
Mitel Tengshan was internally shaken, his face filled with disbelief.
"Quickly give out orders, don't stand here foolishly."
Haibodong also understood Mitel Tengshan's feelings.
If he hadn't seen Su Yun refining the Erode-Breaking Pill with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it either.
Upon hearing this, Mitel Tengshan realized the importance of the matter and immediately went to make arrangements.
Haibodong furrowed his brow. If Mitel Tengshan wasn't so famous in the imperial capital, he would have wanted this useless guy to personally oversee things.
If their interests were disturbed, and it got back to Su Yun, who knows what would happen.
But if something unexpected were to occur...
Just thinking about it sent shivers down Haibodong's spine.
Forget it, I'll go myself.
Haibodong shook his head, he was an old man past his prime.
Yet he still had to look after young people.
The issue of orphaned children was still too serious.
...
On the other side, Su Yun arrived at the Alchemy Guild, dressed in the robes of a fourth-grade alchemist, and explained the situation to the staff, intending to undergo the assessment for a fifth-grade alchemist.
The staff looked at Su Yun's youthful face, their faces full of astonishment.
"You want to undergo the assessment for a fifth-grade alchemist?"
The staff couldn't help but ask again.
Su Yun nodded.
Seeing this, the staff asked Su Yun to wait for a moment and immediately went to report.
Su Yun wasn't surprised. The assessment for a fifth-grade alchemist was not something they could decide on their own.
After a while, an old man approached Su Yun, his aura profound.
Su Yun's mind stirred.
"System, scan this old man."
"Ding, scan successful."
Name: Fama

Alchemy: Peak fifth-grade alchemist

Su Yun looked at the panel displayed by the system, his eyebrows raised.
The system panel had actually been updated!
This was something he hadn't noticed before.
Since the system update, when he tested the scanning range, he only scanned lifeless objects.
There were no apparent changes.
Su Yun observed carefully. The system panel seemed more detailed now, even showing the target's status.
Su Yun's expression flickered. When did I lose the habit of scanning people upon meeting them?
The system update had just finished, and he went to find Haibodong.
Then he rode a flying beast to Blackrock City, flying for several days with nothing to scan.
Instead, he had lost the good habit he had developed earlier of scanning people upon meeting them.
Otherwise, he would have noticed the changes in the system panel long ago.
