Chapter 45 Chapter 45 Stubborn, Gritting Teeth, Enduring Humiliation

Looking at the young alchemist who was slowly walking out from the corner, everyone in the hall was stunned. Some sarcasm suddenly appeared on the faces of the helpless third-grade alchemists.Even a third-rank pharmacist can't do anything about it, what can you do as a second-rank pharmacist? Nalansu stared at the young man who walked out, turned his head and looked at Nalan Yanran, both of them saw a hint of astonishment in each other's eyes.Obviously, the behavior of this young second-grade pharmacist was somewhat unexpected.He didn't invite him out before, it was because of Ya Fei's face.To be honest, they didn't have any expectations for this young alchemist.

Although people should not be judged by their appearance, the other party is only a second-grade alchemist after all. This level is still only the initial stage of alchemy. How can one expect a beginner.Will it be able to expel the scorching poison that even the Alchemy King Furukawa can't do anything about? "Little brother, you..." Standing up, Nalansu didn't really think that the young man in front of him had hidden abilities.But out of habit, he still said cautiously: "Are you sure you can treat the old man?" Slowly stopping in the middle of the hall, Xiao Yan glanced at Nalansu, and said indifferently: "Then may I ask, is Pill King Guhe sure to treat him?"

"Uh..." Hearing this, Nalansu froze for a moment, then shook his head in embarrassment: "If Master Furukawa can treat him, then why do we need to spend so much energy to seek medical treatment everywhere?" "Since even King Alchemy is not absolutely sure, then Patriarch Nalan said to me, isn't it a bit..." Xiao Yan said coldly with a hint of sarcasm in his hoarse voice. Opening his mouth slightly, Nalansu's original intention was to find out the background of the young man in front of him, but he didn't expect him to be so sharp.I was a little caught off guard at the moment, and for a while, I didn't know how to reply.

"You misunderstood my father. He didn't target you. It's just that the old man's situation is getting worse and worse. We don't have any extra time to spend, so we need to be careful, please don't mind." Nalansu was stunned At the same time, Nalan Yanran, who was sitting quietly at the side, gently pulled down Nalansu's robe with her jade hand, and immediately smiled calmly at Xiao Yan. "The time you wasted just now. Is there still less time?" His eyes stopped on the beautiful woman who made Xiao Yan's fists in his sleeves clenched unconsciously. It loosened a little because of her beauty, but it was a little more cold that was not difficult to detect.

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, the faces of the dozen or so pharmacists in the hall couldn't help turning ugly.Xiao Yan's words undoubtedly meant that they were wasting the little remaining time of old man Nalan's life.At that moment, a gray-haired old man couldn't help but reprimanded with his face flushed: "Where did you come from? You are so arrogant. You are a mere second-grade pharmacist, what qualifications do you have to say such things to us?" ?” As soon as the old man yelled, the surrounding alchemists all nodded indignantly, and then stared unkindly at the young man whose back was turned to them.

Looking at the young man whose face was as indifferent as a lump of ice, Nalan Yanran also frowned slightly imperceptibly.If he really has the ability, she doesn't mind him being more arrogant, but if he doesn't have any real ability, but he just likes to talk big, then she hates this kind of person from the bottom of her heart. "Judging from Your Excellency's tone, it seems that you have some confidence in your ability...¨" Nalansu came back to his senses, stared at Xiao Yan, and said in a deep voice: "But you should know that no matter how outstanding your talent is. Now you are only a second-grade refiner..."

Nalansu's words didn't come out completely, but he stopped suddenly. At the same time, the temperature in the hall suddenly rose, and the third-rank alchemists in the hall who were full of sarcasm opened their mouths slowly at this moment. He stared at the young man in the hall incredulously... two groups of blue flames rising from his palms. Beside the first place, Nalan Yanran looked at the blue flame rising from the palm of the young man, her jade hand slowly covered the ruddy, shock and ecstasy shone in the pair of autumn eyes. "You should know each other, right?" He ignored the silent atmosphere around him.Xiao Yan lowered his head and looked at the cyan flame that jumped like two groups of elves on the palm of his hand, and said calmly.

"Strange fire?" He took a deep breath of the slightly hot air.A dozen or so third-grade pharmacists who dealt with flames all day long recognized the details of the blue flame in an instant. Their faces were slowly covered in shock, and they stared at it with envious and fanatical gazes. The rising and lingering blue flames. "Little brother... you... this is a strange fire?" The shock gradually faded from his eyes, and the ecstasy on Nalansu's face was almost hard to hide. "Now. Can you stop those unnecessary nonsense?" The ordinary-faced young man fiddled with the blue flame with his head down, his tone indifferent.

Although Xiao Yan's tone is still as unceremonious as before.But those third-grade pharmacists no longer dare to show disdain and ridicule on their faces. A pharmacist who can possess a different fire has almost unlimited future in the pharmacy world.Even Pill King Guhe has never been able to possess a strange fire.One can imagine how hard to find and precious this thing is.If you want to get the different fire, you need not only chance, but also a huge reserve force to support it.In other words, behind this seemingly young second-grade pharmacist, there must be an extremely powerful teacher...

"Your Excellency. On behalf of my father, I would like to apologize to you for my negligence earlier, please!" Standing up, Nalan Yanran slightly bent towards Xiao Yan, with impeccable etiquette. Without answering her words, Xiao Yan glanced sideways at Nalan Su who was smiling, and then turned around with Nalan Yanran.Go to the side room. Looking at Xiao Yan who was walking towards the side room, Nalansu smiled and said something to the dozen or so third-grade pharmacists in the hall, waved his hand to invite the butler to serve him, and then hurriedly followed with Nalan Yanran.

Slowly approaching the side room, a faint soft light came out, Xiao Yan gently pushed the door open.The space in the room is quite large.In the center, a large bed was placed in it, and an old man with a withered face was lying on it.Around the bed, several maids were busy to and fro.Hearing the sound of the door, they turned their gazes over, and immediately took care of the old man who had fallen into a coma carefully. Slowly approaching the big bed, Xiao Yan glanced over the bed, and found the old man's face.There was a large area of ​​gray and black indistinctly, and there was a breath of death on his peacefully sleeping face. "It's really serious..." Xiao Yan said in a low voice, glancing at the old man's face that almost had half of his foot in the grave. "That's right. I'm afraid even a Dou Huang powerhouse wouldn't dare to mess with something like branding poison. The old man has survived for so many years. He has reached his limit." Behind him, Nalan followed closely. Su sighed and shook his head, then said cautiously: "Little brother, look. Is there any sign of healing?" On the side, Nalan Yanran nodded slightly, her pair of bright eyes stared closely at the young man with a tall figure and an indifferent expression beside her. "I don't have any other way, so I can only follow the method that Pill King Furukawa said. Use different fires to enter the old man's body. Then slowly expel the poison." Xiao Yan shook his head and said calmly. "In that case, it should be very dangerous, right?" Hearing this, Nalan Yanran said in a low voice with a little hesitation. "Less than fifty percent sure." Xiao Yan said lazily, glanced at Nalan Yanran whose pretty face changed slightly, and said with a sneer: "Looking at the old man's appearance, he must not be able to survive another two days. Should he die under the torment of toxins, or fight hard?" Whether a fight can be saved, how to choose. You decide for yourself, and those jokes about whether you are absolutely sure, it’s better not to say it.” Xiao Yan's sneering words with a stick between them made Nalan Yanran slightly frowned.The pretty face was a little unattractive. In her capacity, no one dared to speak to her like that over the years. "Hurry up, I don't have extra time to waste." Flicking his sleeves lightly, Xiao Yan ignored Nalan Yanran's expression.Light and authentic. "Hey. If that's the case, then it's all up to the little brother. If you can really heal the old man, you will be a friend of our Nalan family forever." Gritting his teeth and pondering for a while, Nalansu finally said He nodded fiercely, and said in a deep voice. "Get out of the way. Don't disturb me." Xiao Yan waved his hand casually, and sat beside the bed.The right hand was slightly erected, and the blue flames lingered upwards. In an instant, the temperature in the room skyrocketed. Seeing that Xiao Yan was about to make a move, Nalan Su pulled Nalan Yanran back a few steps, and at the same time drove all the maids out of the room with his hand. Supporting Nalan Jie on the bed with one hand, Xiao Yan casually glanced at this friend who was said to be a very good friend with his grandfather.Although after such a long period of toxin erosion, the old man's already withered face looked a bit ugly, but this one can still faintly see some of the unruly character just like his name. The left hand lightly patted Nalan Jie's shoulder, and a dark force shook the robe on his body into powder, revealing a thin body like a skeleton. Looking at this skinny body, Yuan Yi could not help but shake his head with Xiao Yan's temperament, while Nalan Yanran's eyes turned a little rosy.The extremely rare mist lingered in the eyes, making this delicate woman look a little pitiful. Slowly sticking out his middle finger, a wisp of cyan flame was lingering around his fingertips. Xiao Yan stared at the cyan flame, and calmly said: "I'm going to start. As I said, using a strange fire to enter the old man's body would be a An extremely dangerous thing. Therefore, you have to prepare for some extremely bad plans..." Hearing this, Nalan Yanran and Nalan Su's expressions changed slightly, but they could only nod with wry smiles. The soul power slowly protruded out of the body, then enveloped the cyan flame, tried hard to suppress its blazing high temperature, and then lightly touched Nalan Jie's back. With a finger pointing, the green flame plunged into Nalan Jie's body with a puff, and the latter, who was unconscious at first, suddenly trembled at this moment. Pointing his finger on Nalan Jie's back, Xiao Yan squinted his eyes, his soul power controlled the cyan flame, quickly shuttled through some main meridians, and then gradually approached the bones covered by the caustic poison in the former body . With the help of the stretching of the soul power, the situation in Nalan Jie's body also appeared in Xiao Yan's mind, sensing those bones that had almost turned black.Xiao Yan frowned gradually, the depth of Nalan Jie's poisoning was far beyond his expectation... "It seems that it is impossible to expel the toxin all at once, let's choose to expel the toxin slowly..." I murmured in my heart.Xiao Yan's soul power was wrapped in blue flames, and then he slowly approached those jet-black bones wrapped in toxins. As he approached, Xiao Yan's soul power also gradually began to relax, and the temperature of the blue flames quietly increased. As the temperature of the blue flame rose, Nalan Jie, whose face was originally numb, gradually felt pain on his face.The withered palms were also clenched tightly, and the veins twitched on the arms. The cyan flame wrapped in soul power stopped rising when it reached every temperature.Xiao Yan slowly took a breath of the slightly hot air, hesitating for a moment, and biting his teeth, he was controlling the blue flame, covering a section of jet-black bone. "Ah..." On the bed, Nalan Jie, who had his eyes closed, opened them suddenly, and a hoarse roar of severe pain came from his mouth, and a fierce aura, like a flash of light, came back to him. "Old man..." Looking at the old man who suddenly opened his eyes and roared, Nalan Yanran and Nalan Su hurriedly shouted. "I'm detoxifying you. If you can bear the severe pain, the poison should be expelled, but if you can't, then I can't do anything." Glancing at the sweaty Nalan Jie, Xiao Yan said calmly. Hear the voice behind.Nalan Jie turned his head slightly, looking at that young and indifferent face, he couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, then gritted his teeth and laughed dryly: "Little boy, you saved me?" "I didn't say that I would definitely save you. Maybe if I lost my mind, you would die by my hands." "Haha, my life was originally picked up, but I let it go. No one dares to blame you if you kill me." Nalan Jie smiled heroically as he endured the severe pain in his body with twitching corners of his mouth. "Grandpa, what are you talking nonsense?" Nalan Yanran breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Nalan Jie who had woken up from a coma, and couldn't help but annoyed. "You damn girl. Do you still have the face to come back? In the past three years, if it wasn't because you went to Xiao's family to break the engagement, how could I be so angry that I couldn't continue my cultivation, and I was made like this by that poison?" Lan Yanran, Nalan Jie's roar has not yet fallen.The corners of his mouth twitched and howled again, he turned his head to look at the strange young man behind him who suddenly frowned, and said with a wry smile: "Little boy, why did you suddenly..." "Be quiet." The cold voice was slightly mixed with imperceptible anger, which made the three people in the room a little astonished, and then fell silent helplessly. Looking at the young man with a face as indifferent as ice, Nalan Yanran stuck out her tongue quietly.Then he turned his head and looked at Nalan Jie's sad face with a slight smile in his heart. Over the years, this guy seemed to be the only one who dared to speak to the grumpy old man like this. Following the silence of the few people, the atmosphere in the room quietly quieted down. "Sigh. I didn't expect such a young person to have such a thing that even Master Furukawa coveted..." The quiet atmosphere lasted for a long time.Nalan Su pulled Nalan Yan and then backed away a little, looking at the young Xinchang's back beside the bed, he couldn't help turning his head to Nalan Yanran and said in a low voice. "Hmm. It's really remarkable. He seems to be about the same age as me, but he actually possesses the legendary strange fire... I heard Elder Furukawa said about the horror of this thing. Last time they went to the Tagore Desert to look for the strange fire. , It's a pity that such a huge lineup still returned empty-handed. From this we can see how fierce that thing is." Slightly nodded, Nalan Yanran's beautiful eyes flashed a sliver of admiration, she was already the same age The charming child in the middle.After so many years of practicing in Yunlanzong, he has never seen a peer who can surpass him, and this young man named Yan Xiao.It was her first feeling of admiration for her peers. Perhaps this is some kind of mutual recognition among outstanding people? "Why? Think he's pretty good?" Nalansu jokingly said, glancing at his daughter's expression. "What nonsense are you talking about? Disrespectful to old people." Nalan Yanran gave Nalan Su a blank look, and Nalan Yanran shook her head helplessly. "Well, speaking of it, it seems that the three-year agreement between you and that little guy from the Xiao family is less than half a month away?" With a smile, the smile on Nalansu's face suddenly subsided, and he sighed. road. "..." Nalan Yanran was silent, and after a while, she nodded slightly and said softly, "There are still thirteen days." "In three years, you have become much more mature than before. Now you should be able to know how much shame and trouble you have brought to the Xiao family and Xiao Yan, right?" Nalansu looked at his daughter beside him. That smooth and beautiful side face, said. Nalan Yanran was silent, she opened the black hair on her forehead with her slender hand, and after a long while, she said in a low voice: "I know that my behavior caused them a lot of trouble. However, I also know that I am right... The three-year agreement is about to begin." Reach, I, wait for him to come." "I heard that Xiao Yan left Bird Tank City a year ago, but, as far as I know, before leaving, the young man who was once considered a waste had already recovered his previous talent for cultivation, alas... One year later, I don't know how far he has grown." Nalan Su smiled wryly and shook his head, staring at the silent Nalan Yanran beside him.After a while, he said in a low voice: "You seem to have misread this time... I said at the beginning, don't underestimate this young master of the Xiao family who has become a waste. Before the age of thirteen, his cultivation speed was once It has shocked countless people..." Nalan Yanran parted the blue hair falling on her forehead with her slender hands, silent.After a while, he calmly said: "I will abide by the three-year agreement. If I win, all the previous things will be written off. If I lose, I, Nalan Yanran, also said that as a slave, I will do as he pleases." Nalan Yanran bit her rosy lips lightly, slowly raised her pretty face, her eyes were a little blurred, the young man's sneering words in Xiao's hall three years ago came to mind again. "Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don't bully young people into poverty!" "This contract is not a contract to dissolve the marriage contract, but a divorce certificate for this young master to expel you from the Xiao family!" "From now on, you, Nalan Yanran, have nothing to do with my Xiao family!" Three years ago, the boy who bore the name of trash.Under the oppression of the behemoth of the Yunlan Sect, he still stubbornly gritted his teeth, endured the humiliation, and waited alone, breaking out of the cocoon and turning into a butterfly...
