Since he had met Old Yao, Venerable Feng was not in a hurry to leave the Danta. He simply stayed Danta temporarily, since the elders would take care of the affairs of the tower and he could teach his disciples anywhere.

Xiao Yan then summoned his three disciples and began the final round of instruction for this period of time.

"Xin Lan, Ying'er, Chen'er, in a few days, I will be going out on business for at least three months, and possibly up to half a year. If you have any questions, you can go to my master's wife's courtyard to ask for advice. I have already informed her about this matter."

The three girls weren't surprised to hear that Xiao Yan was going out for a while. After all, although Xiao Yan was their master, he was still just a boy under sixteen years old. It was already quite remarkable that he could stay in the Danta for half a year without any worries.

"Don't worry, Master, even if you're not here, we won't slack off."

As the senior disciple, Ye Xinlan solemnly promised upon hearing this.

"You are all very talented and passionate about alchemy. I am not worried that you will slack off. It's just that I can't always be by your side to teach you, and I always feel indebted to you. But some things are just too difficult to do both ways. You must move forward, and so must I."

Xiao Yan nodded and gently ruffled the soft, fluffy hair of each of his three beautiful disciples.

Apart from Cao Ying's dissatisfaction with Xiao Yan's treatment of the little girl, Ye Xinlan and Dan Chen both narrowed their eyes slightly, revealing a somewhat contented expression like two kittens.

"By the way, Xin Lan, before I leave, I plan to go to the Ye Clan to take care of some things, and while I'm at it, see if I can resolve the issue with the Ancient Sun Fire Altar. Would you like to go back and take a look?"

Xiao Yan suddenly remembered the promise he made when he took Ye Xinlan as his disciple, and asked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xinlan tilted her head, thought for a moment, and then asked softly:

"Then, can our two junior sisters come along too? Master, didn't you say last time that you were going to the Ye Clan to use the environment of the Ancient Sun Fire Altar to revive a senior? Can we go and observe?"

Xiao Yan mentioned this matter briefly during his lecture.

After all, they were his devoted disciples, and this wasn't some secret that couldn't be told; there was no harm in saying it.

"Hmm, that works too."

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Yan readily agreed.

He originally wanted his three apprentices to continue studying Alchemy, but then he thought that he, as their master, was capable enough to handle things, so why should his apprentices be as busy as he was every day? Being happy was more important than anything else.

While Alchemy is something to be studied, one should also enjoy the carefree days of youth.

For the past six months, the three women have not left the Danta at all. Although their home is not in the Dan Region, the Cao Clan and the Dan Clan have left people in the Dan Region.

This is a good opportunity to take them out for a stroll.

"Alright, the pill I'm going to demonstrate to you today is called the Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill."

This is also a peak Fourth-Grade pill. It is similar to the Three-Vein Green Spirit Pill, but its effects are better. It requires an extremely high level of skill from the alchemist in controlling the heat.

The Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill comes in three grades, and each grade changes the color of the pill. If it can be completed in three stages, resulting in the pill displaying three different colors, then it is the highest grade Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill.

However, those below the Da Dou Shi cannot take the Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill, as the powerful energy it contains will cause them to explode.

The purpose of refining the Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill this time is not only to let you observe how to control flames, but also to improve your strength.

After saying that, Xiao Yan signaled the three of them to get ready. Then, he flipped his hand, and the Green Lotus Core Flame surged up, forming a cauldron in his palm. With a flash of his Storage Ring, the medicinal herbs flew out and fell into the flames in his palm, and he began to refine medicine.

Xiao Yan once exploded his medicine cauldron while refining the Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill, but now he no longer faces that risk.

Xiao Yan had once been envious of Old Yao's ability to create a cauldron from the palm of his hand.

Now he does things with ease, reaching the same carefree state as the old Old Yao, which makes the eyes of his three beautiful young female disciples light up, almost like tiny golden stars twinkling in them.

That was the light of worship and reverence.

As Xiao Yan refined the pill, he explained some key points to note when refining the Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill to the three women, who listened with great interest.

Ye Xinlan didn't actually understand everything.

However, she can also gain some useful experience and ideas for alchemy from it.

As for Cao Ying and Dan Chen, who had been diligently cultivating at the Fourth-Grade level for half a year, they felt that the insights they gained from observing this alchemy process were comparable to those gained from a whole month of arduous Alchemy.

As Xiao Yan used the Green Lotus Core Flame, the Sea Heart Flame, and the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, which was directly lent to him by Old Yao as his Origin Flame Seed, the refining of the Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill was completed with unparalleled smoothness.

The three junior disciples were dumbfounded when they saw the ten tri-colored pills in Xiao Yan's palm.

Using his palm as a cauldron, he simultaneously refined ten pills that required flame transformation, and miraculously succeeded?

Master's control over flames is simply too powerful!

Xiao Yan smiled, put seven of the pills into a jade bottle, and gave the remaining three directly to his three disciples.

"Ying'er, Chen'er, you two can take the pills now. While I'm here, I can help you process the medicinal effects. These pills are made from three Heavenly Flames and are quite potent. If you take them privately, you'll likely suffer a lot. As for Xin Lan, keep your pills safe and take them when your strength has increased."

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's instructions, the three women responded in unison.

Ye Xinlan carefully put the pills away, while Cao Ying and Dan Chen swallowed them without hesitation.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan smiled, flashed behind the two women, placed his hands on them, and began to help them circulate and unblock the medicinal power.

At the same time, with a thought, the Beast Fallen Lotus Heart Flame flew out, and another wave of medicinal herbs flew into it.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Ye Xinlan looked at Xiao Yan with some confusion.

"Fire Lotus Pill, Third-Grade pill, can directly raise the cultivation level of Dou Master who cultivates Fire Attribute Dou Qi by one star!"

As Xiao Yan spoke, he controlled the flames and medicinal herbs, beginning to refine medicine remotely, while also channeling the medicinal power to his two disciples.

Seeing Xiao Yan's calm and collected demeanor, his ability to multitask, and his casual conversation with her, Ye Xinlan's eyes were overflowing with admiration.

To her, Xiao Yan was practically a god!

He is omnipotent!

Immediately following was a wave of emotion.

She understood, of course, that the Fire Lotus Pill was specially made for her, both to enhance her strength and to allow her to observe and learn the Third-Grade Alchemy.

As her master's eldest disciple, he ultimately showed her some favoritism.

Thinking of this, the girl's face flushed slightly.

Although her eyes were still focused on watching Xiao Yan refine the Third-Grade pill, she couldn't help but glance at Xiao Yan's calm and composed face with a faint smile on his lips.

My master is truly captivating!

Xiao Yan's soul perception was incredibly powerful; he could see through every subtle expression on Xiao Yan 'Ye Xinlan face.

He looked somewhat helpless.

He wasn't a child anymore, and of course he understood that it was difficult for his master, who was only three to five years older than his three disciples, to inspire the kind of awe they felt towards their elders. Instead, they felt more of a longing and a vague emotion.

But he couldn't do anything about it. Like today, he simply wanted to save trouble, so he opened multiple task programs.

But in the eyes of the three disciples, all that remained was that their master was amazing, their master was handsome, and their master was so good to them.

In addition, based on their daily interactions, although he was nominally the master, he was actually like an older brother to them.

After spending six months together, even the proud little black swan Cao Ying had become his little fangirl.

If this continues, Xiao Yan wouldn't be surprised at all what they might do.

Why?

Because that's how he treated Yun Yun.

What goes around comes around, and now it's Xiao Yan's turn to play the role of Yun Yun.

Fortunately, Xiao Yan can shift the blame onto Old Yao.

After all, the relationship between Old Yao and Master Han Shanshan was similar.

It's a tradition within our school!

To avoid this situation, one can only do Old Yao master did and take on apprentices of the same gender.

Soon, the pill was finished being refined. Xin Lan sat down to refine the medicinal power, and Xiao Yan also calmed his mind and helped Cao Ying and Dan Chen to completely refine the last bit of medicinal power.

The two women's auras surged to three stars.

Sensing the changes in the Dou Qi within their bodies, the two beautiful girls opened their eyes with expressions of excitement.

Master's elixir is truly incredibly potent!

"Thank you, Master!"

Two girls' soft, melodious voices rang in his ears as they hugged Xiao Yan's arms, one on each side. Their smiling faces were like blooming flowers, radiating youthful beauty.

Xiao Yan couldn't help but smile, and then waited for Ye Xinlan to finish refining and absorbing the pill.

As expected, the eldest disciple was even closer to him, rushing into his arms and hugging him tightly.

Xiao Yan felt as if he had become three years younger, and had returned to the wonderful time when he was surrounded by beauties in the Inner Academy.

Unfortunately, all the older sisters have returned to their clans. Even Senior Sister Ling Yanfei went to Sound Valley to cultivate with Aunt Jing a month after he moved into the Danta.

Before leaving, Xiao Yan gave her a lot of pills and a gentle kiss.

It's been half a year, and I wonder how my senior classmates are doing now.

Despite having such concerns in his heart, Xiao Yan didn't show it. He simply pulled his disciples off him and then pressed them down to sit on the ground.

"Alright, be good, stop touching your master. Over the past six months, I've spent some time refining three sub -Child Flame from the Fallen Heart Flame. These flames can not only help you increase your success rate in alchemy, but also help you in your daily cultivation."

"Once I find Heavenly Flames, I'll have to use it myself first. I can't help you all obtain Heavenly Flames yet, so please use this Child Flame for now."

As he spoke, Xiao Yan released the three sub -Child Flame from his body, guiding them with his soul power and sending them to his three disciples.

"Master..."

Looking at the three invisible flames that emanated a scorching heat yet only brought them immense warmth, the three women were all moved, their eyes reddening.

He slashed out a Child Flame every two months, and he slashed out three times in a row.

They were all core members of alchemy families, so they naturally understood that treating the Heavenly Flames in this way might damage its essence, or even harm the essence of Heavenly Flames owner.

Their master's kindness to them was truly immeasurable!

Seeing the three beautiful young women, each with their own unique charm, all with teary eyes, Xiao Yan couldn't bear it any longer and quickly changed the subject.

"Since you have joined my school, I, as your teacher, will naturally not treat you unfairly. This Child Flame was created by me. With me here, you will not be in any danger of death when refining the Child Flame."

"You will have to bear the suffering yourself. Only then will you have a better chance of success if you ever have the opportunity to devour Heavenly Flames in the future."

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, none of the three women hesitated or showed any fear; they had an almost blind trust in Xiao Yan.

After calming themselves down, they began to devour and refine the sub-flames of the Fallen Heart Flame Child Flame.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Yan immediately closed his eyes.

Having refined Heavenly Flames multiple times, he knew all too well what was going to happen next.

As expected, as the Fallen Heart Flame Sub-Flame entered their bodies, the intense heat burned away their clothes.

Although they would most likely follow in the footsteps of their master Xiao Yan and grandmaster Yao Chen and do some rebellious things to their master in the future, they were still young girls in the prime of their lives at this moment.

As Xiao Yan's master, he would definitely have to protect the innocence of his three young disciples.

If it weren't for protecting them, Xiao Yan wouldn't have even planned to stay here.

The low moans of pain from the girls echoed in Xiao Yan's ears, reminding him of his experience of devouring Heavenly Flames years ago.

The first time, he was completely clueless and had no idea that it was Heavenly Flames. If it weren't for Old Yao's intervention, he probably would have been reduced to ashes long ago.

But the most memorable moment was undoubtedly the second time, when he devoured the Green Lotus Core Flame.

That was probably the most dangerous moment of his life.

Heavenly Flames raged within him, while the menacing Queen Medusa stared at him from the outside.

At that time, he had not yet mastered the Great Sun Separation Fire Body; he was relying entirely on elixirs and willpower to risk his life.

Actually, he wasn't that confident.

While the Old Yao was indeed his ultimate trump card, in that situation, if an accident occurred, even if the Old Yao could save him, he would most likely be crippled.

But if he can't even get past that hurdle, how will he face the Soul Hall and the Soul Clan?

Fortunately, he made it through.

Now, ordinary Heavenly Flames can no longer threaten his life, and Queen Medusa has also become engaged to him, and their feelings for each other have deepened day by day.

Everything is moving in the best possible direction.

Although the three disciples were all delicate girls, they did not disappoint their master in terms of willpower, and in the end, they successfully Fallen Heart Flame Sub-Flame.

Xiao Yan casually used his Dou Qi to conjure robes for them before opening his eyes.

"Master, we succeeded!"

The three girls weren't completely unaware of the outside world, but when they woke up and saw Xiao Yan with his eyes closed and head bowed, and with robes made of Dou Qi on his body, they naturally felt much more at ease. They all gathered around him again, some with their arms crossed, some burrowing into his arms, each finding their own place.

Xiao Yan was already used to the incorrigible behavior of these rebellious disciples, so he said no more, only smiling gently:

"Well, it's good that it worked."
