Gu Ni, a Second-ranked Alchemist 

　　The Te Meter's, being the largest auction in the city of Utan, belongs the richest clan in Gamma Empire: the Te meter clan.

　　Among the clans in the Gamma Empire, the Te Meter clan is the one of the greatest wealth.

　　The Te Meter clan, which has developed in Gamma Empire for hundreds of years, has a long history and a complex web of relationships with many superpowers, and according to hearsays, this wealthy clan seems to have something to do with the royal household of Gamma Empire.

　　In Gamma Empire, there are three gaints, including the Te Meter clan, the Nalan clan and the Inte clan. The three major clans have great influences in business and the army, and they are really powerful.

　　Therefore, with a strong background like the Te Meter clan, no one dares to have ill intentions toward them even if their huge profits are enough to attract covetous stares.

　　...

　　Looking at the huge house at the end of the street, Xiao Yan turned into an narrow lane and then he quickly puts on a black robe which he has purchased earlier.

　　The large robe not only covers Xiao Yan's face, but also his thin body, making him look plump. Now even if it's Xiao Xun who stands in front of him, she will be unlikely to recognize him.

　　Having his body covered up, Xiao Yan feels relieved. He can't be too cautious with the foundation-establishment liquid, after all it's is too attractive for some great clans. If they can configure this liquid on a large scale, they can help their young generations progress quickly, this elixir is undoubtedly precious for all clans.

　　In order to avoid unnecessary troubles, Xiao Yan has to keep circumspect.

　　Touching the cold white jade bottle in his arms, Xiao Yan slowly walked out of the alley and then steps towards the auction house at the end of the street.

　　Ignoring the vigilant eyesight from several well-armed guards standing at the entrance, Xiao Yan walked straight in.

　　Stepping inside the house, Xiao Yan feels no longer hot, and the cool air gives him a strange feeling of comfort.

　　Sweeping around the resplendent and magnificent hall, Xiao Yan walked towards a room on his side, whose door is stamped with two big letters reflecting golden light, "appraisement room".

　　Pushing inside the room, he finds that the house is almost empty, only a mid-aged man sitting with boredom on a chair at the table. Hearing his sound of pushing the door, the mid-aged man raised his head and looks at the figure wrapped in a black rube, imperceptibly frowning, a professional smile appears on his face: "Sir, do you want to appraise some treasures?"

　　"Yes." From under the black rube, a dry old voice comes out. To make people surprising, that's Master Yao 's voice.

　　Xiao Yan steps forward, casually pulled out a white jade bottle from his arms and gently placed it on the table.

　　"What's this?" blinking in confusion, the mid-aged man carefully picked up the white jade bottle , sniffing near the mouth of the bottle. A moment later, he changes his countenance, again he raises his head and looks at Xiao Yan with awe in his eyes: " My lord, are you an alchemist?"

　　"Yes." Again the old voice.

　　"Excuse me, what is this elixir? What function does it have?" Hearing this, Mid-aged again inquired with great respect.

　　" Foundation-establishment liquid can help battle Qi cultivation, but it can only function on beginners who haven't become battlers."

　　"Oh? Can it really help cultivate battle Qi?" upon hearing this, Mid-aged is surprised. Generally speaking, battle Qi can only be cultivated in a usual way, which has been a common sense to everyone, and in the primary stage, beginners' body Qi paths are fragile, so if the potency of elixirs is too strong, their Qi paths will go broken and they will definitely die.

　　"This liquid has no negative side effect, and its potency is mild, so it won't cause that result. I assure you." Seeming to understand what is going on in his 's mind, the old voice slowly explained.

　　His countenance changes again, the mid-aged man carefully placed the white jade bottle back on the table and respectfully said, "my lord , could you please wait for a moment? I need to go and ask Gu Ni master to come over to distinguish it!"

　　"Well, hurry up." Waving this man away lordly, Xiao Yan sat down in a chair on the side and then closed his eyes to rest.

　　That man nods hastily and then hurried out of the room.

　　Sitting on the chair, Xiao Yan kept silent, consciously avoid talking to Master Yao. In this place he has to speak and act cautiously, for on one can guarantee that this room is bugged or being peeped.

　　Staying in the room for a few moments, the mid-aged man returns to him, and this time he brought a gray haired old man in a cyan robe with him.

　　Sweeping at the old man 's body and finally Xiao Yan's eyesight is fixed on the old man 's chest, where instead of a gold star, a furnace is painted, which is surrounded by two silver lines shining a brilliant light.

　　"My lord , this is Gu Ni master of our auction house, he is a third-star battle garnd-master! At the same time, he is also a second-ranked alchemist!" with great respect the man introduces.

　　Learning about the old man's identity, Xiao Yan can't help raising his eyebrows, and this is the first time he has met an alchemist except Master Yao, so he can't help taking a closer look at this old man.

　　The old man looks flushed, and though the cyan robe on him looks shoddy, a vague flow of light is flowing on it. Obviously this robe has been enchanted with some monster cores. On his face there is a touch of pride, which is typical to almost every alchemist.

　　 As Xiao Yan is gazing at Gu Ni, Gu Ni is also imperceptibly observing him. Different from battlers, alchemists will gain attention from all powers, and they are known well before they start their own business, so Gu Ni wonders Xiao Yan's identity in his heart.

　　Carefully picking up the jade bottle from the table, the mid-aged man hands it to Gu Ni.

　　Taking the white jade bottle, Gu Ni lightly sniffed the fragrance, slightly narrowing his old eyes, and his pupil shrinks. Slanting the bottle, a small drop of green liquid slowly flows out and floats above Gu Ni's palm.

　　Eyesight firmly fixed on the cyan drop, a silver needle with battle Qi on it appeares between Gu Ni's two fingers, and then he dips it into the cyan liquid and gently stirred

　　With the stirring of the needle, Gu Ni's countenance gradually turns serious, a moment later he put the green liquid back into the jade bottle, and this time when he looks at Xiao Yan, there is respect in his eyesight. Turning to the mid-aged man, he says in a deep voice: " This elixir has reached the second-ranked rank, what this gentleman says is ture! "

　　Upon hearing this, the mid-aged man breathes a sigh of relief and smiles eagerly at Xiao Yan, "My lord, are you going to sell this elixir liquid at auction?"

　　"Yes, I want it at auction as soon as possible."

　　"Ok, no problem, my lord, please take this elixir to the room No.1, where an auction is going on, and your elixir can be sold out today!" Mid-aged smiled and handed over a pitch-black iron nameplate.

　　"Ok." Casually accepting the iron nameplate, Xiao Yan walks directly out of the room under the two people's eyesight.

　　" Gu Ni Master, is he an alchemist?" watching Xiao Yan go out, the mid-aged man asks in a low voice.

　　"Well, he is really an alchemist. He can't be a disguise sharp with his sharp soul perception." Gu Ni nods, but then he frowns, confused: "But where does he from? I have not heard of any alchemist who can refine second-ranked elixirs in the city of Utan?"

　　"Do we need to investigate where he's from?" the mid-aged man whispered.

　　Slightly narrowing his eyes, Gu Ni considers for a while, and slightly he shakes his head: "Don't do that for the time being. Alchemists tend to be a little eccentric, and if he notice that he is being investigated, I'm afraid he will have a bad impression on us. It's unwise to offend a mysterious alchemist whose rank is still unknown to us."

　　Turning his head and glancing at the man, Gu Ni says coldly, "You know how to make him feel good about us, right?"

　　"Yes."

　　"Remember, even if we can't make friend with him, we should not offend him, otherwise ...you know what happens." Gu Ni says coldly as he leaves the room.
