In Holy Pill City, space was torn open, and Xiao Yan walked out from within, carrying Tang Huo'er, who had just straightened her disheveled clothes.

"Finally back."

Although Tang Huo'er didn't experience any hardships along the way, she was still on tenterhooks the whole time, fearing that Xiao Yan would wear her down to the point where she couldn't walk anymore.

Now that she's back in Danta, with the help of her older sisters, perhaps she can enjoy life without suffering.

Those miserable days are gone forever!

As the instigator, Xiao Yan naturally knew why Tang Huo'er was so excited about returning to the Danta. He didn't point it out, but on the way back, although his hands weren't very well-behaved, he still told Tang Huo'er about Yun Yun and Xiao Lan.

Tang Huo'er already knew that this older sister named Yun Yun was a long-time fiancé who had been engaged to her husband long ago, but Xiao Lan Yan had never told her about Xiao Yan before.

However, after learning that Xiao Lan was Xiao Yi Xian's younger sister, Tang Huo'er had no choice but to accept it.

What else can we do?

Fight with Xiao Yi Xian?

Don't let Xiao Yi Xian's gentle and kind demeanor fool you; she's actually born with Woe Poison Body and is an expert in playing with poisons!

Surely no one really thinks a pretty girl who uses drugs could be a nice person, right?

Moreover, she had received a lot of help from Xiao Yi Xian when she cultivated the Great Sun Separation Fire Body. As a grateful person, she naturally had to give Xiao Yi Xian face.

After returning to the Danta with Xiao Yan, Tang Huo'er exchanged pleasantries with her older sisters and also got to know Yun Yun and Xiao Lan.

The girls got along quite harmoniously. After all, they were all Xiao Yan's women and knew that he was under tremendous pressure, so they didn't want to distract him by Xiao Yan or rivalry.

Besides, if she really upset Xiao Yan because of jealousy, Xiao Yan has so many women, he won't miss one more troublesome one.

So they all got along very well. Even though they weren't familiar with each other and didn't exchange many words, they never neglected to maintain appearances.

Seeing the girls getting along so harmoniously, Xiao Yan was in a good mood. Their cheerful laughter, unique faces and figures were a feast for the eyes and brought him joy.

Afterwards, Xiao Yan went to instruct his three junior disciples in Alchemy. Looking at Ye Xinlan and Dan Chen, whose minds were clearly more open, Xiao Yan fell into deep thought.

Now, it's an open secret that his three traitors harbor ill intentions towards him.

Cao Ying goes without saying; she has a well-developed figure and matured early. When instructing her on alchemy, this girl would either deliberately bend over to show off her plump and rounded hips or stretch to display her rather voluptuous chest.

So, although she didn't receive a single one of those Filial Piety Pills, she didn't really care, because she didn't need them at all.

After all, she's already quite grown up; if she were a little older...

If her body continues to grow, it might become too large, and if her proportions become unbalanced, it would be unattractive.

The eldest disciple, Ye Xinlan, was still young. Although she couldn't wait to take the Filial Piety Pill, it was only slightly larger than before. However, she respected Xiao Yan more than anything else and didn't dare to express her love as boldly as Cao Ying. But she would often stare blankly at Xiao Yan's focused expression when he was guiding her in alchemy.

There was no way around it; although they were nominally master and disciple, Xiao Yan was only a few years older than them, but much more mature. This was the most fatal temptation for young girls just beginning to experience love.

Xiao Yan's senses were incredibly sharp, so he naturally noticed that his eldest disciple would occasionally stare at him blankly. But this was simply human nature; he couldn't very well say, "We're master and disciple, you can't have any improper thoughts," could he?

If Xiao Yan were a few decades older, he might have done that, but now he is only eighteen years old. He doesn't have the same feelings for his disciples as a teacher or father. Instead, he is more like a senior brother teaching on behalf of his master and his three junior sisters.

Not to mention his three apprentices having designs on him, he himself was also reluctant to see the apprentices he had personally trained being given away to others.

However, he wasn't in a hurry to let his three little apprentices get what they wanted so easily. Otherwise, if they became his women, how could he strictly discipline them to learn Alchemy?

If she then pleads and says she doesn't want to refine medicine anymore, should he agree or refuse?

Furthermore, compared to Cao Ying and Ye Xinlan, Dan Chen actually benefited the most.

Because of her unique physical condition, she is unable to get close to others on a daily basis, and even her family members cannot hug her.

Over the years, the only person she could be close to was Xiao Yan.

That's why she poured all the closeness and dependence she had previously lacked on her family, and all the longing she had for her friends, into Xiao Yan.

Therefore, she is the only one among the three disciples who can hug Xiao Yan restraint and hold his hand to have physical contact with him.

Over the years, under Xiao Yan's care, Dan Chen's physique has actually improved. However, the Great Sun Separation Fire Body is indeed not very suitable for a girl like Dan Chen who is naturally weak. Therefore, Xiao Yan had no choice but to use the method he was most proficient in to enhance Dan Chen's physique.

Alchemy!

From the initial Third-Grade to the current Seventh-Grade, Dan Chen's physique has improved a lot. At least she is no longer the delicate person who would fall over if the wind blew her away.

Although she still has a small frame, her figure is now considered to be a healthy, well-proportioned physique.

As for the issue of his special physique and the fact that his soul possesses the power to devour and absorb, Xiao Yan has already asked the Master of Devouring to help him research this matter. Of course, for now, he also has a temporary solution.

"Chen'er, I have created a method that can temporarily free you from the troubles of your special constitution. This method requires setting seals in the main meridians throughout your body to temporarily isolate the effects of your special constitution. However, it will also affect your control over your soul power. Therefore, I will set the seals in a way that you can freely open and close."

In a quiet room in the courtyard, Xiao Yan looked at his little disciple Dan Chen, who was sitting upright in front of him, and said with a smile.

"Real?"

Upon hearing this, Dan Chen's beautiful eyes lit up with surprise, and her eyes began to redden.

She had waited for this day for far too long.

When have I ever lied to you?

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan smiled and reached out to rub Dan Chen's little head.

"Master!"

Dan Chen's voice trembled slightly, and she finally couldn't help but throw herself into Xiao Yan's arms, tears streaming down her face, soaking Xiao Yan's clothes.

She had no doubt whether Xiao Yan's words were true or not, because just as Xiao Yan had said, he had never lied to her, and he would never lie to her about this matter!

"Thank you, Xiao Yan."

She buried her face in Xiao Yan and said in a muffled voice.

The sound was extremely faint; if Xiao Yan hadn't been so perceptive, he wouldn't have been able to hear it at all.

But...

Goodness, they've really stopped acting and are calling him "Master" directly instead of "Master."

"Alright, calm down, I'll draw the seal for you."

Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"Good!"

Upon hearing this, Dan Chen got out of Xiao Yan and immediately began to undress.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing!"

Xiao Yan panicked upon seeing this.

This girl is incredibly bold!

"Master, since the seals are to be drawn on the main meridians of my body, these clothes are in the way, so they naturally need to be taken off, right?"

Dan Chen blushed and said softly.

"What are you saying! With my level of attainment, would I be afraid of such a small obstacle?"

Xiao Yan rebuked him seriously, his expression solemn.

This time, he didn't need to use Heavenly Flames to create the seal, so there was no risk of burning his clothes. With his current soul power, he only needed to probe into Dan Chen's body to create the seal; there was no need to painstakingly carve it onto his body bit by bit.

Of course, the main reason is that Dan Chen is still his apprentice, and he can't take advantage of such a situation.

Although he was a rebellious disciple who had already won over Yun Yun at Dan Chen's age, it didn't mean he could win over a disciple of that age.

After all, that would be too much torture, too much to bear.

"Ah..."

Upon hearing this, Dan Chen blushed even more and buried her head, no longer daring to look at Xiao Yan.

But whether it was just his imagination or not, Xiao Yan felt that there was a hint of disappointment in Dan Chen's tone just now...

An illusion, it must be an illusion!

It's not an illusion.

Dan Chen was indeed a little disappointed.

After all, she had just taken the Filial Piety Pill, and her exquisite body was now curvaceous, like a budding flower.

She naturally hoped that the person she admired and loved most could appreciate her beauty.

But she knew it was inappropriate, so she obediently straightened her hastily undone clothes, then moved slowly to Xiao Yan's Xiao Yan, turned her back to him, and sat down.

Since we don't need to remove her clothes to draw the seal, it should be just like routinely treating her body—simply placing our hands on her back should be enough, right?

As Dan Chen thought this, she suddenly realized that she had packed her clothes too early!

She could have easily taken off her outer garment and revealed her backless petticoat underneath!

Sigh, it seems I'll have to go home and ask my aunt for advice; she still lacks a lot of knowledge in this area.

If Xiao Yan knew that Dan Chen had such dangerous ideas in her little head, he would probably be so angry that he would lock her in the alchemy room and make her refine pills for a whole month before letting her out.

At such a young age, they're already learning bad habits; I wonder who they learned it from...

Yun Yun: Yes, who did you learn it from?

However, Xiao Yan was already in a state of deep concentration. The whites of his eyes disappeared, replaced by a deep, dark blackness, and his black pupils seemed capable of devouring everything in the world.

Clearly, Xiao Yan used the power of the Devouring Ancestral Symbol to achieve the special effect of helping Dan Chen seal her physique.

This was actually an idea that Xiao Yan had when he first made the guarantee to Dan Chen.

However, he was not proficient in using the Ancestor Symbol at the time, and his own realm, vision, and methods were not quite sufficient.

But now, he has these conditions. Thanks to the guidance of the Three Great Elders of Danta Old Yao, and the Master of Devouring, Xiao Yan now has an extremely profound foundation. Even some veteran Dou Zun expert cannot compare to Xiao Yan in this respect.

Dan Chen felt her master's warm hand pressed against her back, and then a strange black energy entered her body.

She studied under Xiao Yan, received frequent guidance from Old Yao and Xuan Yi, and was occasionally enlightened by Xuan Kongzi and Tian Leizi. With her exceptional insight, she naturally discerned that this black energy was neither Dou Qi nor Heavenly Flames.

Although Xiao Yan rarely revealed the power of the Ancestor Symbol in front of them, Dan Chen could guess that this black energy should be the magical object called the Devouring Ancestral Symbol that her master Xiao Yan had once mentioned to her.

However, this thought had to stop there. As the power of the Ancestor Symbol began to condense into profound and ancient sealing characters within Dan Chen's body, Dan Chen had no choice but to concentrate and coordinate with Xiao Yan's actions.

She kept her body in a state of absolute relaxation while controlling her Dou Qi to prevent it from retaliating against external forces.

At the same time, she watched as the dark Devouring Power that Xiao Yan had injected into her body continuously circulated through the main meridians of her body, especially at the major acupoints, where it was used to construct sealing hubs.

With these sealing hubs, the Devouring Power will automatically draw energy from heaven and earth to replenish the seal's daily consumption, achieving an automatic power-up effect.

In this way, Xiao Yan only needs to be busy once. In the future, unless he needs to break the seal, he will not need to worry about whether the seal will become less effective or even lose its function due to insufficient energy.

Finally, Xiao Yan set a switch for the seal on Dan Chen's wrist, and then passed on the method to activate the switch to Dan Chen.

In this way, Dan Chen only needs to activate the magic method herself to freely open and close the seal. When the seal is open, she can freely carry out her daily life, hold hands with her two senior sisters to go shopping in Holy Pill City, go home to hug her aunt who raised her, and no longer worry about her physical condition.

When the seal is closed, she can fully control her soul power to refine medicine without affecting her normal cultivation.

It can be said that this is the best solution for Dan Chen before completely resolving her physical condition.

And so, with the seal complete, Dan Chen once again threw herself into Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan also clearly sensed that the powerful attraction of this girl to soul power was indeed blocked by the power of the Devouring Ancestral Symbol.

Of course, this also raises another minor issue.

When the sealing hub on Dan Chen's body draws power from heaven and earth on its own, it will naturally also draw Dou Qi from the battle qi of those close to her body.

Of course, the sealing power is currently sufficient and does not require replenishment, so Xiao Yan did not feel the Devouring Power taking effect. However, if the energy within the seal is depleted, those weaker than Dan Chen would likely still be affected by the Devouring Power and have their Dou Qi absorbed.

Of course, compared to a physique that is so domineering that it can drain a person's soul power, the Devouring Power is still very gentle, and having a little bit of Dou Qi absorbed will not affect the health of the person being absorbed.

"Master, thank you!"

Dan Chen hugged Xiao Yan and thanked him excitedly.
