The conversation between Xiao Yan and Yao Lao was just an episode in this short journey. After flying into the depths of the black earth, Xiao Yan naturally focused all his attention on the road.

Black-Corner Region's climate itself is not very good. Whenever a storm comes, Xiao Yan has to fly down temporarily to avoid being accidentally swept away by the storm.

Even after becoming Dou Ling, there is still no way to compete with natural disasters like storms.

However, despite some twists and turns on the road, Xiao Yan arrived at Black Cloud City as scheduled after two days of journey.

This city, which was simply expanded from a market-like stronghold through the exchange of goods from Black-Corner Region, or should be said to be the exchange of stolen goods and the transmission of information, is now under the control of a force named Thousand Medicines Workshop, one of the Black-Corner Region.

Thousand Medicines Workshop, as its name suggests, is actually a force that specializes in the sale and circulation of elixirs and rare medicinal materials.

Although Black-Corner Region has always been dominated by the rumored "Medicine Emperor", it can be regarded as a rare and powerful force.

With Thousand Medicines Workshop and Black Cloud City as the leaders, six or seven out of ten transactions in the natural city are inevitably related to elixirs and medicinal materials.

Even because he was in Black-Corner Region, the chaos here not only caused a mixture of fish and dragons in the world, but there was no such clear boundary between the alchemist and Poison Master.

That's right, in the medicinal materials area in Black Cloud City, there are also corresponding rare poisons that have been isolated from their toxicity in a special way. They are put on the receipt column and have a price that most ordinary people will be discouraged from.

In the huge Thousand Medicines Workshop, Xiao Yan glanced at the many medicinal materials in front of him, and then couldn't help but glance at the carefully sealed poisons on the other side. It was really crazy to actually sell poisons and medicinal materials together.

And looking at the many poisons, Xiao Yan couldn't help but think of someone.

"What's wrong? Miss that little girl?"

Yao Lao asked, Xiao Yan nodded slightly.

"Hmm... I don't know how Little Fairy Doctor is doing now."

A trace of recollection flashed across Xiao Yan's face. Now that I think about it, I haven't seen Little Fairy Doctor for nearly two years, and I don't know if she is doing well.

After leaving Magical Beast Mountain Range, Xiao Yan went to Green Mountain Town to find Little Fairy Doctor, but in the end he did not stop her from leaving. After living together for a period of time, Xiao Yan left for Tagor Desert, and Little Fairy Doctor went to the Chu Yun Empire.

A trace of trance flashed across Xiao Yan's face, two years... this time passed so fast, it passed in a blink of an eye.

However, Xiao Yan also knows that Black-Corner Region is not close to the Chu Yun Empire. Even if Dou Huang expert wants to travel between the two places, he may not be able to come here within a few months.

If you want to see Little Fairy Doctor here, it is probably a little impossible.

Immediately, Xiao Yan dispersed the distracting thoughts in his mind, turned to find Thousand Medicines Workshop's guy, and informed him of his needs.

After realizing that the seemingly young man in front of him was actually an alchemist, the Thousand Medicines Workshop guy became more respectful.

"Our store does have Yan Luo Branch, but Yan Luo Branch is extremely rare, and our store does not have much inventory. If you intend to buy it, you still need the shopkeeper to make the decision."

After saying that, the Thousand Medicines Workshop clerk bowed slightly and took the initiative to ask the Thousand Medicines Workshop shopkeeper for instructions. When the wrinkled but still energetic white-haired old man heard the clerk say that someone actually wanted to buy Yan Luo Branch, he couldn't help but slightly widen his muddy old eyes and regained a bit of his youthful shrewdness.

Then Xiao Yan saw the old man waving his hand for the waiter to leave, and he slowly walked over.

Xiao Yan watched the old man walking straight towards him, and was not in a hurry to speak. He only waited for the old man to say in his rich voice, "Do you want to buy Yan Luo Branch?"

"Exactly."

Xiao Yan nodded.

The old man looked Xiao Yan up and down and nodded secretly. Soul Power was calm and restrained. He already had such a powerful Soul Power at such a young age. He didn't know which force had trained the genius alchemist. It seemed that such a talent was rare even among Thousand Medicines Workshop.

"In that case, please come with me. Yan Luo Branch is quite hard to find, so naturally it won't be placed in such a conspicuous place for anyone to steal."

After confirming that Xiao Yan was not a fisherman in troubled waters, the old man led Xiao Yan to a blocked staircase, and then used Dou Qi to open the subtle but powerful energy barrier.

Xiao Yan looked at the old man's movements and couldn't help but take a look at the forbidden barrier that the old man opened at this moment. With a barrier of this level, even Dou Wang might be helpless. Even Dou Huang expert would have to spend more effort to forcefully break through.

Obviously this Thousand Medicines Workshop is just a branch, but it already needs to be equipped with such restrictions to prevent Dou Wang and even Dou Huang expert. You can imagine what coveted things are placed here.

The ban was lifted, and Xiao Yan followed the old man down the stairs. The rows of simple medicine cabinets naturally seemed much smaller than the countless medicinal display cabinets outside, but it was also because of their scarcity that these medicinal materials became more precious.

The old man asked Xiao Yan to stop for the time being, and then took out three branches with new sprouts, about the length of a finger, from the medicine cabinet.

"This is Yan Luo Branch. Please take a look at it."

The old man waved his hand.

Xiao Yan couldn't help but pick up the largest branch and look at it. There was some confusion in his eyes. Is this seemingly ordinary branch Yan Luo Branch?

He also used Soul Power to check the authenticity. It was indeed an extremely rare medicinal material.

I just don't know why, Xiao Yan always feels that there is something weird about Yan Luo Branch, but Xiao Yan can't put it into words, so I can only summarize it as intuition.

Perhaps it is simply the characteristics of the medicinal material Yan Luo Branch.

Xiao Yan checked the other two relatively small branches, and there was no obvious difference in Soul Power's detection.

It seems that there is indeed nothing wrong with it, it should just be my own illusion.

Xiao Yan nodded slightly and already made up his mind.

"It's not a problem. How can I sell this medicinal material?"

Now that Yan Luo Branch has been found, Xiao Yan naturally needs to be captured.

"Haha, I, Thousand Medicines Workshop, basically do not charge Gold Coins for the rare medicinal materials I sell. I often exchange them for items of the same price."

The old man looked at Xiao Yan's slightly frowning expression and couldn't help but smile.

"Bartering?"

Xiao Yan frowned slightly, he couldn't say much about other people's rules.

However, these Thousand Medicines Workshop rules are actually in line with the customary transactions between their alchemists. Most of them are bartering, or using medicinal materials in exchange for elixirs, or simply using Pill Formula in exchange. However, this kind of person is considered to be wealthy even among the alchemists.

But if there is anything he can offer in exchange for Yan Luo Branch, Xiao Yan, who is an alchemist, certainly has it.

Then, Xiao Yan took out a small jade bottle from his Storage Ring and handed it to the old man in front of him.

The old man understood and opened the mouth of the jade bottle. A burst of red fragrance came out, which was refreshing and refreshing.

The old man who suddenly felt refreshed was quite surprised. Although the young man seemed to have an extraordinary background at first glance, the fact that he had such an elixir was indeed extraordinary.

"This elixir is called Purification Pill. It can to a certain extent avoid the occurrence of excessive practice time and obsession, and it can also detoxify."

Xiao Yan said nonchalantly, "I don't know the specific grade, so I leave it to the old gentleman to make his own judgment."

"Purification Pill...? Could it be the elixir refined by the rumored Medicine Fairy?!"

The old man pondered for a moment, then suddenly spoke something shocking, and then the man became a little excited.

Xiao Yan is somewhat unexpected. I didn't expect that anyone in Black-Corner Region has heard of Wan Guniang as the name of Medicine Fairy. It is famous throughout the Northwest Continent. This sentence is not wrong at all.

"Guest, please wait a moment. I still need to test this elixir. How about it?"

The old man's voice became a little trembling, obviously unable to suppress his excitement.

Xiao Yan Of course it didn't matter, he just said please, and then he was led back to the top by the old man.

Because Xiao Yan took out Purification Pill, the old man's attitude towards Xiao Yan was equally enthusiastic, and he only asked him to wait for the time being, and he would return later.

Xiao Yan naturally had no objections, so he waited quietly in front of the counter of Thousand Medicines Workshop.

But while waiting, he couldn't help but think to himself, "Teacher, why do I feel like this cloak is useless at all?"

Xiao Yan was naturally talking about the old man. The old man's eyes seemed to be able to penetrate through the thick cloak and see Xiao Yan's true face. It was really amazing.

"It's normal. After all, the cloak you are wearing is not the type that can isolate Soul Power from detection. It is normal for it to be seen through."

Yao Lao explained.

"Then I didn't wear it for nothing?"

Xiao Yan exhaled a breath of turbid air, and resentment suddenly arose in his mouth. This thing was not easy to wear, but in the end it had no effect at all. Wouldn't this make him angry to death?

It's just a complaint, Xiao Yan couldn't take off his cloak in public at this time, so he had no choice but to walk around the stalls in Thousand Medicines Workshop to pass the time.

"Guest, this is your thing, please keep it."

Suddenly, Xiao Yan heard a waiter in front of the poison counter on the other side handing a heavy Storage Pouch to the woman with silver hair and a purple skirt in front of him.

"Yeah."

She didn't say much, she just raised her hand to put it away with Storage Ring, then turned to leave.

The moment Xiao Yan saw her, she just felt familiar, and unconsciously wanted to step forward and take a closer look, but the woman seemed to have noticed Xiao Yan early in the morning. Above the veil, the beauty looked back, as if as a warning.
