Chapter 23 Medicine Master

Xie Tianxiao looked at Xiao Yan's confused look, and a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "You will understand later, now just watch carefully."

"after?"

Xiao Yan scratched his head with his left hand, not knowing what was going on.

Following Xie Tianxiao's gaze, he looked down at the quaint ring with seven-colored dewdrops clinging to his right hand.

The dark and ancient ring actually lit up a little! As

Xiao Yan watched, the seven-colored dewdrops seemed to be swallowed by the ring and began to fade at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As the colorful light weakened, the dark light became thicker and thicker.

In the end, it was almost like a bottomless black hole, sucking up all the colorful dewdrops.

Seeing the changes in the ring on his right hand, Xiao Yan's eyes widened. What was going on?

"Are you still not coming out? Yao Zun, Yao Chen..."

Looking at the black ring that showed no reaction, Xie Tianxiao narrowed his eyes and spoke lightly.

"Hmm? Is anyone there?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan quickly looked around, but did not see anyone.

"You have absorbed other people's fighting spirit for more than two years. Shouldn't you come out and explain it?"

Looking at the still motionless black ring, Xie Tianxiao glanced at Xiao Yan and said.

"Who are you, and how do you know my name?"

Suddenly, a transparent and old figure floated out from the dark and ancient ring, looking at Xie Tianxiao vigilantly.

"Haha, don't worry about this for now."

"Xiao Yan, aren't you wondering why your Dou Qi disappeared? Now the real culprit is right in front of you, why not ask him?"

Looking at Xiao Yan, Xie Tianxiao chuckled and said with a hint of teasing in his eyes.

Xiao Yan was shocked when he heard this. He immediately turned his gaze towards the old, illusory figure and asked in confusion, "Old man, are you the one who made my fighting spirit disappear?!"

"Hey, you little kid are so rude."

The old, illusory figure lightly scolded, and then said: "Ahem, you can call me Yao Lao. As for my origins, it is better not to tell you now."

"Originally, I wanted to absorb a year's worth of fighting spirit from you, but unexpectedly, the person next to you used a Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva to replenish my soul power, which allowed me to recover ahead of schedule."

"As for absorbing your fighting spirit for those two years, I had no choice."

At the end of his speech, the old figure sighed.

After hearing this, Xiao Yan was shocked and immediately became furious. He cursed: "Okay, it really is you, old bastard!"

"Do you know how much shame you brought upon me by absorbing my fighting spirit for two years?"

"You old bastard!"

"You...you have to pay me back for my fight!"

Although Xiao Yan didn't know the origin of the old man in front of him, the fact that he had quietly absorbed his Dou Qi for two years definitely made him very angry!

If it weren't for this old guy, his current strength might have reached that of a five-star or six-star Dou master!

"Haha, little kid, don't get excited. Although I have absorbed your Dou Qi for two years, you have suffered cold eyes and ridicule for these two years."

"But during these two years of ridicule, you have also seen some of the human nature and grown a lot, right?"

Listening to Xiao Yan's angry curses, the old man was thick-skinned and didn't care at all. Instead, he smiled without comment and spoke lightly.

Xiao Yan frowned, and his mood gradually calmed down, but he still snorted coldly, crossed his arms and said coldly: "I admit that you are right, but it still cannot change the fact that you absorbed my fighting spirit!"

Although what the old guy said was right, he still felt a little unhappy!

After all, his fighting spirit was absorbed by someone, and it was absorbed silently, and the person who absorbed it was an old man. No one would feel comfortable in his situation!

"Oh, the little guy has quite a temper."

Yao Lao shook his head and chuckled, then continued: "Isn't it just a few stages of fighting spirit?"

"Let's put it this way. Little kid, do you want to become stronger? Do you want to be respected by others?"

"As long as you accept me as your master, I will guarantee that you will return to the seventh stage of fighting spirit within a year, and even reach the level of fighter in your coming-of-age ceremony next year!"

After Yao Lao finished speaking, he stared at Xiao Yan with an expectant look in his eyes.

"I want to be your disciple?"

"Are you strong?"

"Now that I know why the fighting spirit disappeared, with my talent, do I still need you to become stronger?"

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yan said calmly. He knew in his heart that there is no free lunch in the world, and this old guy must have some purpose.

"You can't say that, little kid. You, the Yunlan Sect of the Jiama Empire, know that, right?"

Yao Lao heard what Xiao Yan said, but he was not angry and said with a smile.

"Know."

"But what does this have to do with you?" Xiao Yan nodded.

The Yunlan Sect was the most powerful sect in the Jia Ma Empire, and its leader was a real Dou Huang! Xiao Yan had some understanding of this.

"Hehe, although the Yunlan Sect has Douhuang strongmen and is also a top-notch sect in the Jia Ma Empire, it is nothing but shit in my eyes." Yao Lao curled his lips and said disdainfully.

"you"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan was immediately speechless due to the arrogant old man's words. For a moment, he didn't know what to say and could only stare at Yao Lao with resentment.

"Haha, don't look at me like that. I'm telling you, with your aptitude, if you practice on your own, you'll only be a Dou Huang in the end. You can only establish a small force like the Yunlan Sect."

"If you can take me as your master, I will not only help you surpass Dou Huang and appreciate the charm of the entire continent, but I will also teach you the supreme alchemy technique and make you a respected alchemist!"

"Tsk, who knows if you are lying?"

Xiao Yan said with disdain, obviously not believing what the old guy said.

"Laughing at you? Do you know how many powerful people on the mainland begged me to accept them as my disciples?!"

Seeing that Xiao Yan didn't believe him, Yao Lao couldn't help but get angry.

"Anyway, I don't believe it, but are you really an alchemist?"

Xiao Yan rolled his eyes and said excitedly.

"Nonsense, do you think I'm just kidding you?"

Yao Lao rolled his eyes and said unhappily.

"But aren't there many harsh conditions to become an alchemist?"

Xiao Yan pondered for a moment, and suddenly seemed to have thought of something. He raised his head sharply, and opened his mouth wide: "So I have achieved it!"

"That's right. If you want to become an alchemist, your own attribute must be fire, and there must be a trace of wood in it as a catalyst. And you just happen to have these conditions." Yao Lao nodded.

"Oh my god!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but swear, and said excitedly: "Okay, I will take you as my master, and you will teach me the art of alchemy!"

Although he didn't quite believe what the old guy said about how many powerful people were begging him to be their disciples, and that he could reach the level of Douhuang or beyond.

But if it's a pharmacist, it's different!

After all, alchemists are extremely rare and highly respected in this Douqi Continent.

At least after he became an alchemist, he no longer had to worry about money!
