Green Mountain Town

"Six... 6th Grade... grade!"

Hearing Xiao Yan's stammering words, Old Yao sighed, "Yes! 6th Grade. Even in the most prosperous place on the continent, for Lin Ming to reach the 6th Grade Alchemist at his age is an extremely rare existence."

After finishing his sentence, Old Yao looked at Xiao Yan, who was quite shaken, and smiled inwardly. Then he said calmly, "Xiao Yan, do you want to become someone like Lin Ming, or even surpass someone like Lin Ming?"

"Teacher, can you help your disciple surpass them?" Upon hearing Old Yao's tempting words, Xiao Yan immediately perked up and asked Old Yao.

In response to Xiao Yan's question, Old Yao replied with considerable confidence, "Xiao Yan, as long as you can continue to evolve your Cultivation Method, catching up with or even surpassing someone like Xiao Yan Lin Ming will be extremely easy. As for alchemy, 6th Grade Alchemist is nothing special in front of me. Under my tutelage, while surpassing Lin Ming won't be effortless, it's certainly highly possible."

Upon receiving Old Yao's affirmative reply, Xiao Yan was immediately overjoyed.

If he could truly surpass Lin Ming, then all the problems he was facing now would cease to be problems. As for Nalan Yanran, she would probably come to the Xiao Family and kneel down to beg for his forgiveness, and the humiliation his father suffered could be completely avenged to those who came to humiliate him.

Having endured three years of setbacks, Xiao Yan knew all too well that to gain extraordinary strength, he would have to pay a heavy price. Therefore, after a moment, Xiao Yan solemnly said to Old Yao, "Teacher, as long as you can help me surpass these top geniuses, I will endure any hardship, no matter what it may be."

Seeing that Xiao Yan had made this decision, Old Yao immediately smiled and assured Xiao Yan, "Haha, Xiao Yan, a strong person must first have a strong will. With your determination, I will definitely be able to help you surpass them."

Then, in the cave, a young man, accompanied by the ethereal figure of an old man, began a months-long alchemy journey.

"Brother Lin Ming, you're awake!" Upon seeing Lin Ming emerge from the room, Ya Fei immediately greeted him with a charming voice.

"Yes! She's awake. By the way, it's so noisy outside, the Jia Nan Academy's recruitment team must have arrived!" Lin Ming said happily as soon as he saw Ya Fei outside the room.

"Yes! Brother Lin Ming, the Jia Nan Academy's recruitment team has arrived this year." Ya Fei nodded in response to Lin Ming's words.

"Sigh, time really flies! It's almost been three months before we knew it," Lin Ming sighed after receiving Ya Fei's confirmation.

During these three months, apart from using the time to solidify and solidify his slightly weak Dou Qi, Lin Ming spent most of his time eating and playing with Ya Fei and Qing Lin.

Therefore, everyone in Wutan City now knows that a member of the Mittel Family from the Imperial City has come to the Mittel Auction House, and he often takes Ya Fei out to eat, drink, and have fun.

As a result, many men in Wutan City who had fantasized about Ya Fei had completely given up hope.

In their minds, the Mittel Family had been taking Ya Fei out for three months of eating, drinking, and having fun. The question wasn't whether it was a fait accompli, but rather how many times it had already happened.

Compared to the members of the Mittel Family, they couldn't compete in appearance, and they were even less likely to be able to compete in status.

As for comparing cultivation level and strength, they had received inside information that this person was the genius from the Mittel Family. So there was no comparison in terms of strength.

Didn't you see that the Magical Beasts others brought with them when they were playing were all at the Peak Third-Order? The strength of just one of those Magical Beasts was enough to easily defeat most of the people in Wutan City.

Therefore, they eventually had to accept reality and abandon their unrealistic fantasies of finding a place to settle down.

Of course, Lin Ming wouldn't care about other people's speculations, even if he knew them.

Now that he realized it was almost time, Lin Ming called Ya Fei and Qing Lin over and said to them, "Ya Fei, Qing Lin, pack your things and head back to your families tomorrow. This concludes our stay in Wutan City."

"Brother Lin Ming, are you coming back with us?" Ya Fei asked immediately after hearing Lin Ming's words.

Thinking back to the original story, Yun Yun went to find the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King not long afterward. How could Lin Ming miss such a scene? So, after thinking for a moment, Lin Ming replied, "I have other things to do here, so I won't be back until later. You all go back to the family and wait patiently. I'll be back in the family soon."

Hearing Lin Ming say that he would be returning to his family soon, Ya Fei and Qing Lin's expressions softened a little, and they nodded.

"Alright, with your Brother Lin Ming's current strength, there aren't many people in the Jia Ma Empire who can hurt me. So you two just stay home and wait for your Brother Lin Ming to return. Then your Brother Lin Ming will take you out for a feast." Seeing that Ya Fei and Qing Lin both looked unhappy, Lin Ming immediately said to them.

The next morning, Lin Ming nodded in satisfaction as he watched Ya Fei and Qing Lin being escorted away by a team.

The escort was Mittel's Guard Team, and the route they were taking was along a main road, so the possibility of an accident was almost nonexistent.

After all, the Mittel Family's reputation is already established here. This operation is just escorting two people, and there are no valuables involved. No one would be foolish enough to provoke the Mittel Family.

The Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake that Qing Lin captured also possessed the strength of Dou Ling (Battle Spirit). In the Jia Ma Empire, Dou Ling strength was already quite formidable.

Furthermore, Lin Ming had prepared two Trump Cards for Ya Fei and Qing Lin. If they were to encounter danger, Ya Fei and Qing Lin could use these Trump Cards to unleash a full-force attack from Lin Ming.

So, after watching the escort team gradually disappear at the end of the road, Lin Ming headed towards his destination without looking back.

In less than half a day, Lin Ming arrived at the edge of the Monster Mountain Range from the bustling Wutan City. Seeing a small town ahead, Lin Ming immediately landed nearby and then, like any ordinary pedestrian, headed towards the town of Green Mountain Town.

Upon entering the town, although it was bustling with people, it posed no obstacle for Lin Ming. Lin Ming quickly weaved through the crowd.

"Myriad Medicine Pavilion. It seems this is the place." Looking at the largest Medicine Pavilion in the town, with the Myriad Medicine Pavilion sign hanging above it, Lin Ming nodded and said to himself.

Without hesitation, Lin Ming walked straight into the Myriad Medicine Pavilion.

"Didn't Xiao Yi Xian have any patients today?" Lin Ming asked a clerk at the counter after arriving at the Myriad Medicine Pavilion.

"Xiao Yi Xian only sees patients in the morning. So if you want to see Xiao Yi Xian, you'll have to wait until tomorrow morning!" the clerk replied indifferently.

Upon learning that Xiao Yi Xian was indeed there, Lin Ming smiled slightly, nodded to the counter staff, and then left.
