Xiao Ling smiled faintly and patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder. "These things have no effect on me, and I can't get much resources if I trade them out. Now you can use them, so giving them to you is naturally the best choice. But since you don't want to accept these resources for nothing, then I have a request for you."
After listening to Xiao Ling's narration, Xiao Yan cast a firm look at him and said, "Cousin, as long as it is within my ability, I will definitely do it."
Nodding slightly, Xiao Ling smiled and said, "In Canaan Academy, there is an elder who has helped me a lot. Although we are not master and apprentice, we are in fact master and apprentice. For some reasons, I did not take him as my master, and he is now old, so he wants to find a disciple to inherit his legacy."
After hearing this, Xiao Yan had some guesses in his mind, and looked at Xiao Ling with a puzzled look, "Cousin, do you want me to worship that senior as my teacher?"
Xiao Ling nodded slightly, and said patiently: "That's right, your talent has been restored now, and the prerequisites for becoming an alchemist have been met. I see that your soul perception is beyond ordinary people, and you must have extraordinary talent in alchemy. That senior is Elder Huo from the Alchemy Department of Canaan Academy. His cultivation has reached the peak of Dou Huang, and his alchemy skills have reached the peak of the fifth level for decades. He will be able to teach you the art of alchemy and lay a solid foundation for you. You can also join Canaan Academy and enjoy the cultivation of the college's resources. There is also the 'Heaven Burning Qi Training Tower' in the inner courtyard to help you quickly improve your cultivation. Canaan Academy has made a great contribution to my achievements today."
After listening to Xiao Ling's narration, Xiao Yan's eyes became brighter. Since he had the prerequisites to become an alchemist, he naturally wanted to become an honorable alchemist. The Elder Huo was a Dou Huang peak powerhouse and a veteran fifth-grade peak alchemist. He could teach an alchemy genius like Xiao Ling, so his teaching ability was beyond doubt. If he could become the direct disciple of the Elder Huo, he would not only be able to learn the art of alchemy, but also be able to fulfill Xiao Ling's request. In this way, he would not feel so awkward to accept Xiao Ling's gift.
Xiao Yan nodded seriously and replied to Xiao Ling: "If that's the case, I will definitely practice with all my strength and try my best to catch the eye of that senior. If I am lucky enough to be accepted as a disciple by that senior, I will definitely respect my teacher and fulfill my duties as a disciple."
After getting a satisfactory answer, Xiao Ling smiled and stuffed the ring into Xiao Yan's palm. "Okay, since you agree to this proposal, then accept this ring. Elder Huo will not accept a 15-year-old with only the third stage of Dou Qi as his personal disciple. When your cultivation is sufficient, I will take you to Canaan Academy. However, if you do something to betray your teacher and ancestors, I will not show mercy to you because you are of the same clan as me."
Xiao Ling was still very grateful to Elder Huo. Allowing Xiao Yan to be his apprentice would also allow him to no longer worry about not being able to inherit his legacy.
After chatting with Xiao Yan for a while, Xiao Ling sent him away from his courtyard. Xiao Yan was also very happy and couldn't wait to share the good news with his father.
After resolving Xiao Yan's issue, Xiao Ling walked out of his own courtyard and strolled around the Xiao family mansion.
After returning to the Xiao family, Xiao Ling first held a family meeting, and then went to help Xiao Yan check up his body. He did not have time to appreciate the Xiao family's new mansion.
The whole mansion is very large, with a strict central axis symmetry to form a three-way multi-entry courtyard, with a regular layout, square and orderly. Pavilions, towers, eaves and green tiles are intertwined and winding, with exquisite elegance and grandeur.
Walking slowly on the bluestone steps, some passing clansmen greeted Xiao Ling respectfully. In the minds of all the Xiao family members, Xiao Ling is the real pillar of the Xiao family. Without Xiao Ling, there would be no Xiao family today.
Xiao Ling didn't put on airs and responded to those tribesmen with a smile. Now Xiao Ling finally understood why those peerless masters always liked to have a stern face, because there were too many people greeting you, and it was really tiring to respond to them.
After strolling around the Xiao family casually, Xiao Ling returned to his own yard. As soon as he opened the gate, he saw three girls who were ready to go. From their looks, they seemed to be planning to go out.
Seeing Xiao Ling coming, Zi Yan, who was in the lead, immediately ran to Xiao Ling and hugged his arm, "Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling, this is our first time in the imperial capital, how about going out for a walk?"
Hearing Zi Yan's question, Xiao Ling suddenly realized that they were going out shopping. It seems that no matter which world they are in, women are particularly fascinated by shopping.
Xiao Ling waved his hand and touched Zi Yan's little head. "I won't go shopping with you. If you want to go out and play, just have fun. When you go out, remember to follow the rules. But if someone provokes you, don't be polite."
After giving a few instructions to the three women and asking Yao Chen to help take care of a few things, Xiao Ling returned to the training room alone.
Taking out the Green Lotus Platform from the system space, Xiao Ling sat cross-legged on it. He flipped his hand, took out an Earth Fire Lotus Seed, put it into his stomach, and began to refine its majestic fire energy.
…
The next morning.
Xiao Ling opened his eyes and formed a hand seal to end his training. Feeling the growing Dou Qi in his body, Xiao Ling was quite satisfied.
"This Earth Fire Lotus Seed is indeed a treasure. With this, it won't take long to break through to Dou Wang Six Stars. When my cultivation reaches Dou Wang Six Stars, by taking the Dou Ling Pill and I can be promoted to Dou Wang Seven Stars. By then, I can devour and refine the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame, and my cultivation will surely be rapidly improved in a short period of time."
At this moment, there was a knock at the door of the training room, followed by Zi Yan's shout, "Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling, someone from the royal family is here to see you, and it seems to be a princess."
Hearing Zi Yan's call, Xiao Ling put the Green Lotus Platform into the system space and walked out of the training room.
Seeing Xiao Ling appear, Zi Yan showed a happy smile on her face, "Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling, let me tell you, the royal princess brought a lot of medicinal herbs here, and she said she would give them to you. Now she is waiting for you in the living room."
Xiao Ling patted Zi Yan's little head and smiled, "That was the reward I gave to the royal family for refining the Breaking Sect Pill. It's not for nothing."
After saying that, Xiao Ling took Zi Yan's hand and walked towards the living room.
Zi Yan took out a storage ring and handed it to Xiao Ling. "These are the gifts that others sent yesterday. Most of them are some medicinal herbs. Since you are practicing, I kept them for you first."
