Chapter 219: Traveling to Jia Ma Sacred City
Over the next few days, as Xiao Ming had predicted, all those forces ca to the Xiao family begging for him to et with them.
There were those who thought they were super talented and ca to his door to worship him as Master. There were those who were rich and ca to ask him for pills. There were also those who simply wanted to approach him to make good connections. In short, there were all kinds of people.
For these people, the Xiao family had kindly advised them to leave, saying that his Supre Elder had told them that he would be in seclusion refining pills and would be too busy to receive them.
Of course, not everyone would be expelled from the Xiao family. For example, the people of the Jia Ma Imperial Family were not expelled by the Xiao family, after all, the family still wanted to develop in the Jia Ma Empire.
However, in the end, the emissary from the Jia Ma Sacred City still could not see Xiao Ming, and that was because Xiao Ming was doing what he said; refining pills.
He was refining a pill for the Athyst Winged Lion King's son, the fifth-tier pill, "Cuiping Saliva".
Previously, Zi Yan had stolen the Athyst Lion Birth Essence from the Athyst Winged Lion King, and he was fine with it before. However, now that the Lion King had been his mount for almost two years, every ti he thought about it, Xiao Ming felt a little embarrassed. But it was impossible to return the Athyst Lion Birth Essence as he had long since split it equally between him and Zi Yan.
When a Heavenly Treasure ca into Zi Yan's hands, it usually didn't last for more than a few days.
Xiao Ming still had the Athyst Lion Birth Essence in his possession, which he had not touched at all. However, only half of the Athyst Lion Birth Essence would not be very effective, so Xiao Ming used the Core Quenching Body Milk, combined with so dicinal herbs to refine the Cuiping Saliva for the Athyst Winged Lion King's son.
Although the Cuiping Saliva was not as good as the Athyst Lion Birth Essence, it was not much worse and had so potential enhancing effect, which was not bad at all. The Athyst Winged Lion King, of course, was very happy about this and even roared at the back of the Xiao family's mountain for half a day.
Aside from this, there was a problem with the recipe for the Emperor's Stream Pulp. Xiao Ming had checked quite a few recipes, but there was none for this treasure, which might be related to the fact that the Emperor's Stream Pulp was too rare. Realizing this, Xiao Ming could only create the recipe himself.
Xiao Ming needed a lot of brain cells to co up with new ideas and it would take him so ti to finish his creation.
After completing the refinent of the Cuiping Saliva, Xiao Shan returned to the Xiao family.
He was overjoyed to see Xiao Ming and imdiately invited him to his ho for a al.
During their ti together, Xiao Shan introduced his wife to Xiao Ming.
It turns out that Xiao Shan married during the year Xiao Ming went into seclusion to beco a Dou Ancestor.
At 27 years old, in the Dou Qi continent where adulthood is reached at 16, getting married at this age is considered quite late.
Xiao Shan's status as a Dou Spirit had attracted many suitresses in Wu Tan City, and according to him, his parents had been pushing him to settle down. So, he t soone he liked and decided to get married quickly.
The woman was considered to be quite pretty, as well as virtuous, and she was already pregnant.
Xiao Ming congratulated him on his marriage and presented him with a wedding gift.
After a few days of peace and quiet, Xiao Zhan knocked on Xiao Ming's door.
...
"Clan Head, if you have sothing to say, just say it." Looking at Xiao Zhan, who was hesitant to speak, Xiao Ming frowned and said directly.
In fact, Xiao Ming already knew what matter Xiao Zhan was coming for, and it was none other than about the matter of Xiao Yan.
Indeed, under Xiao Ming's insistence, Xiao Zhan gritted his teeth and explained his purpose.
"Supre Elder, you also know that this kid Xiao Yan had made a three-year agreent with the Little Sect Leader of the Misty Cloud Sect before, and although after that, the talent of Yan'er returned and his cultivation speed beca comparable to yours back then. I'm afraid that he still can't win against Nalan Yanran."
'Comparable to ?' Xiao Ming pursed his lips; he didn't have Yao Lao's Foundation Elixir back then.
Shaking his head, Xiao Ming said, ''Clan Head, I can't do anything if Xiao Yan can't win by himself, right? After all, this is just an agreent between the two of them. No matter if he wins or loses, as long as Xiao Yan doesn't have any other big grudge against the Misty Cloud Sect, for , the Misty Cloud Sect won't do anything to him."
It wasn't that Xiao Ming didn't want to help him either, but just as the Xiao Clan was relying on his na to develop further, Xiao Yan didn't have many people who would provoke him outside just by ntioning that he was from the Xiao Clan of Wu Tan City. Even if others did not believe him completely, not many people would provoke him.
'Or could it be that the protagonist's aura reduced so people's IQ, causing them to end up provoking him?' Xiao Ming thought uncertainly.
Xiao Zhan opened his mouth and could only sigh in the end.
Didn't he know that the words Xiao Ming said were true? However, being his own father, how could he not understand the character of his son?
He feared that when his son's temper got the better of him, he would start talking about a life-and-death battle or sothing like that.
After all, Xiao Yan loved to be the center of attention as a child.
If Xiao Ming knew what Xiao Zhan was thinking at this mont, he would definitely give him a thumbs up.
In the original story, Xiao Yan had actually said those words, and it could be seen that Xiao Zhan knew his son quite well.
"Alas, I won't ask you to do anything, Supre Elder, I know that the Ice Emperor has invited you to make a trip to the Imperial Capital, when the ti cos, I only hope that you can just pass by the Misty Cloud Sect to watch the battle of Yan'er." Xiao Zhan's tone contained a hint of pleading.
It had to be said that Xiao Zhan was really good to his son.
At the ti, he embezzled a large amount of the family funds for Xiao Yan, which was the reason why his conflict with the three Elders had escalated.
Now, he could lower his face and plead with Xiao Ming.
However, although Xiao Zhan might have been a good father, the re fact that he had embezzled the clan's funds was proof that he was not a good Clan Head.
Xiao Zhan's tone of voice made even Xiao Ming sigh at his words. To be honest, Xiao Yan's second brother's tone had not been to his liking when he went in search of Qing Lin at Desert City earlier.
Such matters were originally between his own family line, and even if they were from the sa Clan, it would not be good for him to get involved in them.
If things didn't go well for Xiao Yan, they might even bla him and think he owed them sothing. If he really owed sothing in the past, then everything he had left for the Xiao family over the years had been enough to make up for it, right?
Xiao Zhan was more level-headed than his second son and knew that this sort of thing had nothing to do with Xiao Ming at all.
Therefore, he only used a pleading tone to ask Xiao Ming to take a look at his son, while suggesting that Xiao Yan's cultivation talent was good.
Of course, he did not bring up the topic of compensation, as any form of compensation he could think of would not appeal to Xiao Ming. In fact, offering sothing could only offend him.
"Alright, I'll take a look at him in due course."
Going to the Misty Cloud Sect was sothing Xiao Ming had decided on long ago, whether Xiao Zhan begged him to or not.
There was also the thod to refine a body, which Xiao Ming had to obtain.
So, he had to et Xiao Yan no matter what.
As for protecting Xiao Yan? By looking at the two peaks Dou Emperor of the Snake-People Tribe in the Simulator, and then at Yao Lao, who could possibly ss with him?
Xiao Zhan finally left satisfied, and the next day, Xiao Ming took Zi Yan and also Xiao Yi Xian directly to the Imperial Capital.
