Chapter 47 Chapter 47 Song Qing

Hearing the old laughter, Xiao Yan raised his head slightly, just in time to see the white-clothed old man turning around slowly, his hair and beard were all white, his face was covered with deep wrinkles, his eyes looked a little bit under the weight of wrinkles. There was a gentle smile in those eyes that were as deep and unfathomable as a deep pool. "Senior was joking..." Xiao Yan said respectfully, cupping his hands. "Hehe, this is not a joke. At this age, you have reached the level of a seventh-rank senior alchemist. Looking at the mainland, there are only a handful of people who can reach this level..." The old man in white glanced back and forth at Xiao Yan. , Gently said: "Old man Xuankongzi, if you don't mind being unfamiliar, you can call me Xuanlao. I had a deep friendship with your teacher Yaochen back then. It's not too much for you to call me that."

"Since that's the case... the kid would be more respectful than obedient." Hearing this, Xiao Yan was also so happy, and said with a smile. Xuankongzi smiled, put a scroll in his hand in the bookcase, then turned back to the desk, and said, "Don't worry about Xuanmingzong, now the Holy Pill City is in a state of crisis because of the Pill Society." During the most chaotic and tense period, if one is not handled properly, it may delay the holding of the Danhui." Xiao Yan nodded slightly. "The man last night, he concealed his aura and appearance. I have never been there, so I don't know which elder from the Soul Palace he is..." Xuankongzi said slowly.

"It should be the old man Mu Gu..." Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment, then said. "Oh?" Hearing this, Xuan Kongzi was stunned, but he was not too surprised. He nodded slowly and said, "No wonder I came to you. It turned out to be this old guy, these people from the Soul Palace, really It's not reassuring." "Yaochen, has it also fallen into the hands of the Hall of Souls?" Xuan Kongzi asked suddenly, rubbing his withered palms on the table. Xiao Yan pursed his lips slightly, and nodded immediately. "Hey... this old guy is free and easy by nature, and he never likes to form cliques. If he had listened to me and became a Danta giant, he wouldn't have been coveted by the Soul Palace..." Xuan Kongzi sighed, and said: "I will let people pay more attention to this matter, and if there is any news about Yaochen, I will notify you."

"Thank you, Elder Xuan." Xiao Yan quickly thanked him. The Danta's forces are all over Zhongzhou. If they help in the search, it will naturally save countless troubles. Xuankongzi waved his hand and said: "The Soul Palace can be regarded as the hidden enemy of my Pill Pagoda. I don't know how many alchemist souls are captured by them every year, but due to some reasons, the Pill Tower cannot directly declare war on the Soul Palace. , the strength of this organization is far beyond what you can expect..." Xiao Yan nodded silently. It would be impossible for the Soul Palace to exist in Zhongzhou for so many years without confidence, but what he didn't expect was that even Pill Tower would be so afraid of this mysterious force.

"Crunch..." While Xiao Yan was pondering, the palace door suddenly opened slowly, and then three figures walked in slowly. The former turned his head, and a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes, because the two leading people were Cao Ying and the Dan family. A girl named Danchen... Behind Cao Ying and Dan Chen, there is a man dressed in black. He looks quite handsome. When he entered the hall, he was still chatting and laughing with the two daughters Cao Ying in a low voice. On his chest, there was a A badge with seven bright purple and gold stars on it. Rank 7 Senior Alchemist!

When Xiao Yan saw the two of them, Cao Ying and Dan Chen also saw him, and some surprise flashed across their cheeks, obviously very surprised that he appeared here. "Teacher..." Cao Ying stepped forward slowly and said respectfully to Xuan Kongzi. "President Xuankong..." "Hehe, the three of you are here too..." Xuan Kongzi raised his head, smiled at the three of them, then turned his gaze to Xiao Yan, and said, "This is the champion of the five major family assessments this time, Xiao Yan, You probably already know that." "Hehe, how can I not know that Mr. Xiao Yan has been widely rumored in Shengdan City recently..." Cao Ying covered her mouth and said with a coquettish smile. The enchanting and charming style made the man in black look very excited. Passing by some imperceptible heat.

Xiao Yan didn't care about Cao Ying's words, and just smiled politely at the three of them. "Song Qing... I've heard about Mr. Xiao Yan's performance in the assessment of the five major families for a long time. Today's meeting really deserves his reputation..." The man in black walked forward slowly, stretched out his hand to Xiao Yan, and said with a smile . "Thank you." Xiao Yan smiled slightly. Although the black-clothed man in front of him hid it well, he still saw a faint hostility in his eyes, and the source of this hostility seemed to be Cao Ying on the side.

"This demon girl is indeed the one who brings disaster to the country and the people..." Xiao Yan could only smile wryly in his heart when he discovered this, he didn't say anything, but somehow attracted some hostility, which really made him a little speechless. "Mr. Xiao Yan, Song Qing is the disciple of the Great Elder of the Pill Tower, and he is also the youngest elder in the Pill Tower. In the future, he may become the youngest eighth elder in the history of the Pill Tower. He is not weaker than you at all... …" Cao Ying said with a sweet smile as her eyes moved.

Hearing what Cao Ying said, there was no change on Song Qing's face, but there was a faint smug look in his eyes. With his achievements like this, he does have the capital of pride. "Sure enough, a famous teacher gave birth to an excellent apprentice." Xiao Yan smiled, and didn't say much. Cao Ying, a seductress, has a weird and unpredictable temperament. If she is not careful, she will really make fun of her, and his temperament is not He is the kind of person who likes to hang around women, even if Cao Ying is not an ordinary woman... "Okay, now that we've already met each other, let me tell you why I called you here..." Xuan Kongzi smiled slightly, his eyes slowly swept across the people, his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts, even With Cao Ying's monstrous temperament, she always appeared quite well-behaved in front of him.

"The selection of the alchemy meeting will be held in a few days..." Xuan Kongzi said in a calm voice, "this time the alchemy meeting has attracted many forces because of the relationship between the three thousand flames. , including those from the Soul Hall..." "Soul Palace?" Hearing this, the three of Cao Ying frowned and said softly. Xiao Yan's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't answer. "Well, due to the long-term sealing of the Three Thousand Yanhuo, it has a lot of resentment towards Danta. If it is released, it will definitely attack Danyu in retaliation, and the loss will be huge... "Xuan Kongzi sighed softly: "The three thousand flames have passed through countless years, and their spiritual intelligence is quite strong. In addition, their wild nature is difficult to tame. My Pill Tower has never made it succumb by all means. And because it has gradually absorbed the power of the starry sky over the years, our seal has gradually become unable to restrain it, so this trouble must be resolved as soon as possible._”

"This trip to the Soul Palace may be to collect the three thousand flames. Of course, if they fail to collect them, they will destroy the seal and release the three thousand flames. If this is the case, Danta There will be heavy losses, and it will be convenient for him to collect soul bodies from the Soul Palace..." "Three thousand Yanhuo is extremely powerful. Although it is not ranked in the top five on the list of different fires, its ability is enough to enter this rank..." Xuan Kongzi looked a little dignified, and said: "Because the starry sky Due to the condensed power of the three thousand flames, the three thousand flames are equivalent to an immortal body, so even we can only seal them, not kill them... If anyone gets the three thousand flames and kills them If you subdue it, you will also have an extremely powerful recovery power, if this kind of strange fire falls into the hands of the Soul Hall, it will definitely be a great trouble." "And it is precisely because of this that I called you here. I hope you can prevent the Soul Palace from getting the three thousand flames." Looking at Xuankongzi's dignified face, the hall fell into a moment of silence. After a while, the Cao Yingfang frowned and said: "Teacher, since you are so worried about the Soul Palace, why don't you just ban them from participating?" "First of all, we don't know who the pharmacists participating in the alchemy meeting are from the Soul Palace, and even if we know, we can't prohibit it for any reason, because this is the rule of the alchemy tower in the past. As long as it is an alchemist and If he has the qualifications for the competition, even if he is really Danta's hostile force, he cannot be disqualified... Although this rule is a headache, it is precisely because of Danta's tolerance that Danta has gradually grown to where he is today This step, therefore, there are certain rules that cannot be violated..." Xuan Kongzi said helplessly. Hearing this, the group of people nodded slowly just now. Xiao Yan himself is incompatible with the Soul Palace, and the Three Thousand Flame Flame is also something he must have. Naturally, it is impossible for him to have any objections to this kind of thing. "There are still seven days until the selection of the Pill Club begins. During this period of time, you should try to stay in the Pill Tower. In order to get the champion of the Pill Club, the Soul Hall may use secret means, so you should be more careful..." Xuan Kongzi instructed. Xiao Yan and the others nodded again. "Well, that's about it. The only thing you need to do now is to wait for the alchemy meeting to start..." Xuan Kongzi smiled, turned his gentle eyes to Xiao Yan, took a scroll from the table, and shook it. To the latter, he said: "I heard that you are very interested in Yinger's soul handprint, so take a good look at it. Although this soul handprint is not too high-level in terms of soul skills, it is also extremely rare in the outside world... ..." After receiving the scroll, a look of joy flashed across Xiao Yan's eyes, and he clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Elder Xuan." "Hehe, it's just a trivial matter..." Xuan Kongzi smiled, then waved to everyone. Seeing this, Xiao Yan and the others didn't stay any longer. After bowing and saluting, they slowly exited the hall... Watching everyone withdraw, Xuan Kongzi just smiled slightly, and said softly: "Yaochen, our bet back then depends on who can win the championship of this alchemy meeting, Xiao Yan or Yinger. Once, can you still beat me?"
