Fa Ma's Invitation

He frowned slightly, then immediately relaxed his brow.

These people must have been attracted by the noise he was making while refining pills.

Xiao Ming ignored these people for the time being, and instead handed the Jade Bottle in his hand to Jia Xingtian, who was coming to greet him.

"Elder Jia, I have not failed you. Here is the Breaking Sect Pill you needed."

"Breaking Sect Pill!" Upon hearing the name of the pill, Na Lan Jie and the others nearby were all shocked. Although they already knew that the pill Xiao Ming had refined was Peak Grade Six pill, they still couldn't help but be surprised when they heard the name of the pill, after all, the reputation of the Breaking Sect Pill was too great.

This level of pill might not have any direct effect on a true Dou Zong expert, but it can attract some powerful forces to compete for it. After all, possessing this kind of pill might give them the opportunity to add another Dou Zong expert to their force, which is almost an irresistible temptation for those forces that value inheritance.

In the Jia Ma Empire, even Dou Huang Expert are rare, let alone Dou Zong experts.

The fact that Xiao Ming refined the Breakthrough Pill for Jia Xingtian Breaking Sect Pill indicates that Jia Xingtian, who hasn't made a move in a long time, has already reached the level of Nine-Star Dou Emperor.

Jia Xingtian didn't pay attention to these details. After all, for the Imperial Family, if they had strength, they should show it. How could they deter Xiao Xiao if they hid it?

Jia Xingtian took the Jade Bottle with a look of surprise and delight, feeling the medicinal power emanating from the contents. He smiled happily and said:

"Haha, Master Xiao Ming's Alchemy Technique are indeed extraordinary. In just a few days, he has managed to produce a pill of the Breaking Sect Pill grade with ease."

"He refined the Breaking Sect Pill in just a few days? He really does possess Heavenly Flames." Jia Xingtian and Fa Ma exchanged a glance, both understanding the meaning in each other's eyes.

Although both Jia Xingtian and Fa Ma could see that Xiao Ming possessed Heavenly Flames, they were only somewhat envious and didn't have any intention of snatching Heavenly Flames.

"Elder Jia, you flatter me. Refining the Breaking Sect Pill this time took me a lot of effort." Xiao Ming smiled noncommittally, then touched the Na Ring on his finger and took out another Jade Bottle, handing it to him.

"This is another Sixth Rank pill that you asked me to refine. However, as you know, using it requires a special technique."

Upon hearing this, Jia Xingtian accepted the pill and smiled, "Then I'll have to trouble Master Xiao Ming for the next few days."

Xiao Ming smiled and nodded, when suddenly he noticed a white figure rushing towards him. Upon seeing that it was Zi Yan, Xiao Ming did not dodge.

Zi Yan now realized that she had used too much force and knew that she needed to reduce her strength when lunging at Xiao Ming, so Xiao Ming was not knocked away this time.

Xiao Ming easily caught Zi Yan, who was rushing towards him, and rubbed the little head that was rubbing against him as she asked.

"You haven't been running around these past few days, have you? Going to 'find medicinal herbs'?"

Upon hearing this, Zi Yan stopped moving her head and stared wide-eyed.

"I didn't wander off; I stayed right here."

"That's good." Xiao Ming said with satisfaction. He was actually a little worried that Zi Yan might try to rummage through someone else's Treasure Vault and get caught. He wasn't too worried about Zi Yan's safety, but there would be a lot of trouble.

Thinking about how Zi Yan has had much less time to find medicinal herbs since she came out, even though it was Zi Yan's own choice to come out with him, it doesn't seem right to keep her from finding medicinal herbs all the time, since her wish is to find medicinal herbs to grow up.

Therefore, Xiao Ming immediately said, "I can't go with you to find medicinal herbs right now, but I'll refine a few more for you later as a reward for your good behavior this time."

Xiao Ming harvested dozens of rare medicinal herbs from his alchemy practice, so he didn't feel bad about giving away a few.

Zi Yan's face lit up with a delighted smile, and she jumped onto Xiao Ming. "Really? Hehe, thank you!"

"Master Xiao Ming and your sister have such a good relationship." Although he had some doubts, Mu Zhan still smiled and said this while watching Xiao Ming and Zi Yan's interaction.

After putting down Zi Yan, Xiao Ming turned his gaze to Mu Chen, who had just spoken.

"I apologize for my rudeness earlier. May I ask who you all are?"

Jia Xingtian hearing Xiao Ming's question, Jia Xingtian slapped his forehead and said apologetically, "Oh, it was my mistake. I was so happy to see the pills that I forgot to introduce them to Master Xiao Ming. Ah, I'm getting old, my memory isn't what it used to be."

"Let me introduce you. This old fellow wearing a hat that looks like a pill furnace is the president of the Alchemist Association, Fa Ma, and the one next to him is the renowned Jia Ma Pill King, Gu He."

"The elders beside me are the Clan Leader of the Three Great Families in the Imperial Capital: Mu Chen, Mitel Tengshan, and Na Lan Jie. There's also a powerful figure from another province, the Lion King Yan Shi."

After introducing Xiao Ming, Jia Xingtian then introduced him to Fa Ma: "This is Master Xiao Ming."

"So it's Master Fa Ma and Master Gu He, along with the Top Ten Powerhouses from each of the Jia Ma Empire. I've long admired your names."

Speaking of which, it seems that all the people here are among the Top Ten Powerhouses selected by the current Jia Ma Empire.

That's why Xiao Ming said that.

"Mu Chen greets Master Xiao Ming."

"Haha, Master Xiao Ming, you're too kind."

Grain and glutinous rice

"Master Xiao Ming is too modest. My title of one of the Top Ten Powerhouses is easily attainable if Master Xiao Ming wanted to be on the list."

As Top Ten Powerhouses in the Jia Ma Empire, although this list is somewhat inflated, being able to make it among dozens of Dou Wang naturally means they have some skill.

In Mu Chen and the others' perception, Xiao Ming, who had just finished refining the medicine, possessed a powerful Aura, far stronger than theirs.

Xiao Ming simply smiled and remained silent.

After exchanging pleasantries and becoming somewhat acquainted, Xiao Ming, having just finished refining the medicine, didn't stay long before taking his leave.

As everyone left, they extended an invitation to Xiao Ming.

In particular, Fa Ma, the president of the Alchemist Association, personally invited Xiao Ming to visit the Alchemist Association and exchange Pill Refining Technique.

I realized there was something I needed in the Alchemist Guild.

Xiao Ming did not refuse Fa Ma's invitation, but nodded in agreement.

As these people took their leave one by one...

Soon, besides Xiao Ming Zi Yan, only Jia Xingtian remained in the room.

Seeing the fatigue on Xiao Ming's face, Jia Xingtian did not rush to urge Xiao Ming to treat the injuries of the Dark Sea Flood Dragon.

As he rose, he said, "Master Xiao Ming, refining pills has taken a great deal of effort. Please rest well today. I will invite you to choose your reward from my Royal Treasury tomorrow."

Xiao Ming had no objection.

Outside the Imperial City, Na Lan Jie and Gu He, who had just left, walked together.

Seeing Na Lan Jie's worried expression, Gu He suddenly said, "Old Mr. Na Lan, are you thinking about Xiao Ming?"

"Sigh, yes. A few days ago, that girl Yan Ran ran to the Xiao Family to break off the engagement. Although Xiao Ming didn't say anything, I'm afraid..." Na Lan Jie didn't hide his thoughts and expressed them with a worried expression.

Gu He didn't mean to mock him. He was very clear about the power of Grade Six Alchemist, after all, he himself was Grade Six Alchemist.

A Grade Six Alchemist could easily destroy the Three Great Families of the Imperial Capital, or rather, destroy Three Great Families together, if they paid a certain price.

Na Lan Jie was merely one of the Three Great Families in the Imperial Capital, so naturally he was somewhat helpless against Xiao Ming.

Gu He felt that Xiao Ming didn't even need to ask anyone else to help; he could destroy the Nalan Family on his own.

Especially now that Na Lan Jie has been poisoned for many years, he has lost most of his cultivation in order to suppress the poison.

Thinking of Na Lan Jie's deadly poison, Gu He suddenly stopped and said to Na Lan Jie, "Old Patriarch Nalan, there's no need to worry about Yan Ran's matter. Just now, I saw that although Xiao Ming has achieved so much at such a young age, he didn't show any arrogance on his face, suggesting he's a person of extraordinary character. Since that's the case, he didn't say much when Yan Ran off the engagement, so he probably didn't care too much about this matter."

"If you're still worried, just send someone to apologize tomorrow."

Na Lan Jie thought about it and it seemed to make sense.

The bitterness on her face had faded considerably.

But the next moment, Gu He's words made the bitterness on his face even more pronounced.

"Regarding the deadly poison on Old Patriarch Nalan's body, didn't I say before that I needed Heavenly Flames? You can try asking Xiao Ming."

"You mean... he has Heavenly Flames on him?"

Looking at Gu He who was slowly nodding, Nalan's expression was complicated. Over the years, he had been tormented by the severe poison in his body, and even Gu He could not cure him. He only suggested that he could use Heavenly Flames to treat him.

However, the Heavenly Flames is hard to find, and there has been no news about it in recent years.

Now, suddenly hearing about an Alchemist with a Heavenly Flames should have been good news.

But unfortunately, her own granddaughter offended the other party's clan.

This is...

Na Lan Jie shook his head, feeling suffocated. It was already a sign of good character that others didn't bother him, let alone help him cure his illness!

Seeing Na Lan Jie's complicated expression, Gu He shook his head and walked away.

Thinking about the strange places he hadn't yet visited in the past Jia Ma Empire years, and now that he had encountered an Alchemist with a Heavenly Flames, his desire for that Heavenly Flames grew even stronger.
