Fight to break the sky

In the next few days, Xiao Yan guarded the medicine cauldron almost all day long. Although his life was extremely hard, the healing medicine filled with Najie made him feel better after resting. Quite gratified.

Of course, it is worth mentioning that during the nearly five days of continuous refining, the fighting spirit in Xiao Yan's body has become much stronger without even realizing it. According to the current level, I am afraid it has reached the Fighter Star level. .

Under this double encouragement, Xiao Yan finally gritted his teeth and got through it.

While Xiao Yan was hiding in the cave grinding his teeth and refining medicine, the atmosphere between the Xiao family and the Jialie family in Wutan City was becoming increasingly tense. Two days ago, the Jialie family saw the right opportunity and fired. With various conditions that were extremely favorable to the merchants, most of the merchants who were still waiting on the sidelines began to switch to the market of the Gallie family.

For the Jialie family, this measure was almost intended to shake the foundation of the Xiao family. The top brass of the Xiao family were furious and almost began to have murderous intentions.

…

"Damn it, I can't bear it anymore. In just five days, our Xiao family has lost at least 50% to 60% of its profits. If this continues, all the markets will go bankrupt!" In the meeting hall, the third elder was filled with excitement. His face was fierce and he said angrily.

In the hall, members of the family with high status were all sitting here, their gloomy expressions showing the anger in their hearts.

"It really can't be delayed any longer..." The Great Elder exhaled slowly and said, "Although Master Gu Ni from Miter Auction House has refined hundreds of bottles of healing medicine for our family, this quantity is too small. , it is impossible to compare with the huge number of the Gallie family. In a short period of time, we can still have a stalemate with the Gallie family, but once the time is too long and the healing medicine is sold out, we will have to return to the previous embarrassing situation."

Sighing, the Great Elder smiled bitterly and said: "Although if Gunican helps with all his strength, he will definitely be able to kill the first-grade alchemist of the Jialie family in terms of numbers, but after all, he is from the Miter Auction House, and they have always He rarely gets involved in battles between families, so to be able to do this now is quite surprising."

Xiao Zhan, who was sitting in the first place, nodded gloomily. Although the healing medicines sold by the Jialie family were extremely low-level, they were large in quantity and cheap. They were most suitable for mercenaries who often added blood to their swords. appetite.

"If we can also hire a first-grade alchemist, we can compete with them..." Someone in the hall whispered.

Hearing this, Xiao Zhan shook his head helplessly. There were very few alchemists in Wutan City. It was not easy to hire those guys who thought highly of themselves. This time, the Jialie family didn't know what kind of bad luck they had. I really got an alchemist to help me.

In the corner of the hall, Xiao Yu, Xiao Ning and other members of the younger generation of the family were also sitting there. Looking at the gloomy faces of their elders, they did not dare to interrupt randomly, and the atmosphere was silent and depressing.

"Sister, is that first-grade alchemist really so strong? He actually brought our Xiao family to this?" Unable to bear the dull atmosphere, Xiao Ning asked Xiao Yu softly beside him.

Hearing this, Xiao Yu sighed, smiled bitterly and whispered: "Alchemist is indeed a unique profession... A first-grade alchemist is at the fighter level at most. If he fights head-on, the family Any elder among them can easily kill him, but the scary thing about alchemists is not the frontal battle. They can refine magical elixirs that make people crazy, and with these elixirs, they have unlimited power. With Lunbi’s appeal, many powerful people are willing to serve as pawns for the alchemist in order to obtain these elixirs.”

"In Dou Qi Continent, many people compare the alchemist to a poisonous honeycomb. With just one poke, he can immediately find countless thugs. Think about the scene of being beaten by hundreds of powerful people. Even if you can't be beaten to death, I'm afraid you won't be able to kill you." I’ll have to tire you to death.”

Thinking of that kind of group fight scene, Xiao Ning shuddered first, and then his face was filled with envy.

"Don't be delusional. You don't know how demanding the conditions for becoming an alchemist are. The odds are even smaller than pie in the sky." Xiao Yu rolled his eyes at Xiao Ning and said unceremoniously. Give him a basin of cold water.

Feeling a little dispirited by Xiao Yu's blow, Xiao Ning pouted and said, "I'm afraid our entire Xiao family is really not lucky enough to have an alchemist."

Hearing this, Xiao Yu was about to nod his head, but suddenly, a young man in black clothes jumped into his mind. Judging from the young man's appearance, he seemed to be Xiao Yan...

Shaking her head fiercely, Xiao Yu muttered in her heart: "Why do you think of that little bastard? Huh, if that guy can become an alchemist with his character, I'm afraid the alchemists in this world will be worthless."

After cursing Xiao Yan in her heart, Xiao Yu turned her gaze to the corner by the window, where the girl in green was quietly holding a thick ancient book, occasionally turning the pages with her slender fingers, her eyes moving, calm and elegant His appearance attracted the secret glances of many peers nearby.

"What a good girl, but why do you favor that little bastard so much?" Xiao Yu shook her head helplessly, and remained silent again.

Sitting quietly by the window, although she was immersed in books, Xun'er could still detect the depressing atmosphere in the hall. Her eyebrows were slightly frowned. After all, she had stayed in the Xiao family for more than ten years, and she didn't look at the monk. Looking at the Buddha's face, she would not really let the Xiao family be hit by the Jialie family and never recover, even if it was because of Xiao Yan.

"Oh, I hope those guys won't go too far..." Xun'er sighed softly in her heart, and turned her eyes to the page of the book again. Without Xiao Yan by her side, she almost didn't want to speak.

While the strategy was being discussed in the hall, a family guard hurried in and reported respectfully: "Clan leader, there is a man in black robe outside, saying that he wants to discuss some cooperation matters with the clan leader in detail."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhan and several elders were stunned and looked at each other. Their gloomy expressions suddenly turned to ecstasy. Several people stood up suddenly at the same time and shouted: "Please!"

Seeing Xiao Zhan and the three elders like this, everyone in the hall was a little shocked, and then looked at each other.

"Haha, no need to invite, how are you doing, Patriarch Xiao lately? Old man, I came uninvited." As soon as Xiao Zhan's voice fell, an old laugh came from outside the door.

As the sound came in, a figure shrouded in a large black cloak walked into the hall unhurriedly in full view of everyone.

The moment the man in black robe walked in, Xun'er, who had been immersed in books, suddenly raised her eyebrows, slowly raised her face, and stared at the man in black robe with autumn eyes.
