Medicine Saint!

The next morning, Dan Chen woke up in an incredibly warm embrace. She blinked her eyes and couldn't help but whimper, like a kitten just awakened, making soft and adorable sounds.

"Awake?"

A gentle voice sounded in her ear. Dan Chen looked up and saw that her teacher had a gentle smile on his lips and was looking at her with incredibly tender eyes. Even though there wasn't much romantic love in his eyes, the genuine affection in them still made her heart tremble.

How can there be such a person in this world?

It's practically the epitome of everything wonderful!

"Master~"

Dan Chen's voice also became soft and sweet, with a girlish charm, melodious and clear.

Xiao Yan also enjoyed the feeling of this pretty young girl speaking softly to him, and he stood up with her in his arms.

"Would you like me to take you back to your room? You know you're still quite young. If someone sees you spending the night in my room, it might affect your reputation."

Xiao Yan gently ruffled the girl's soft hair and asked considerately.

Dan Chen simply shook her head at this.

"Master, there's no need to trouble yourself. Chen'er already said Chen'er night that she would follow you for life. Even if nothing happened last night, so what? My conscience is clear, and I'm not afraid of gossip. Besides, with Auntie here, they won't say anything."

Dan Chen gave a slight smile and said earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded slightly.

Indeed, he had forgotten that Madam Dan wielded considerable power within the Dan Clan. For so many years, she had taken care of and protected Dan Chen. With Madam Dan present, this small matter would likely have no impact on Dan Chen.

This put Xiao Yan somewhat at ease.

This way, he can save himself some trouble.

Otherwise, if he knew that someone dared to criticize his most beloved little disciple, he would instantly destroy that person's soul, reduce them to ashes, and make them disappear from this world completely, unable even to enter the cycle of reincarnation!

However, that would cause some trouble for the Dan Clan, which he was actually unwilling to do.

If peace is valued above all else, who would willingly engage in large-scale warfare?

However, Dan Chen, Xiao Yan's little apprentice who only knew how to refine medicine, naturally had no idea what Xiao Yan was thinking.

After all, the Xiao Yan she usually saw was either diligently cultivating or teaching the three of them, always with a gentle demeanor. Naturally, she had never witnessed the methods Xiao Yan used to slaughter the people of the Soul Hall.

However, Xiao Yan was considering whether he should teach his three disciples some ruthless strategies for dealing with enemies.

Although the three of them mainly learned alchemy from Xiao Yan, in Xiao Yan's view, his three disciples would one day be able to stand on their own and travel the continent. It would be bad if they suffered losses because of their kind nature.

Speaking of Xiao Yan's women, there are indeed quite a few who are capable of fighting, but when it comes to decisiveness and ruthlessness, Queen Medusa and Xiao Yi Xian are probably the most outstanding.

Xiao Yan pondered whether he should ask these two, who knew him best, to give the other sisters a proper introduction to the Xiao Family's way of doing things.

In fact, Xun'er understands her own personality quite well. It's just that they've been separated for too long these past few years, and there are some things that Xun'er hasn't experienced, so there is indeed a gap in information.

On the contrary, Queen Medusa and Xiao Yi Xian, one has been by Xiao Yan's side for many years and the other has been training with Xiao Yan since early on. They also have the memories of the previous Poison Sect Master. In some extreme situations, in terms of ruthlessness and decisiveness, they are even superior to Queen Medusa.

After a moment of reflection, Xiao Yan came to his senses, took Dan Chen's hand, and they walked out of the room together.

He wouldn't mind letting Dan Chen rest at home for a couple more days, but he himself still had to go back to Danta.

After all, it's only a matter of time before Old Yao is fully resurrected, maybe even sooner or later. Under these circumstances, Xiao Yan, as his disciple, definitely has to wait at the Danta.

After all, once Old Yao is resurrected, he is, in a sense, even younger than Xiao Yan. As a result, Xiao Yan will have to rely on his old man for support.

He's worked so hard for so many years, can't he just rely on his parents for support?

Only when Old Yao is fully resurrected can Xiao Yan truly establish a solid foundation within the Central Plains.

Dou Sheng- level expert is already a rare find in the entire Central Plains, so Xiao Yan no longer needs to worry about those inhuman and ghostly fellows from the Soul Hall messing with him.

Although Dan Chen also liked staying at home, she preferred to go back to the Danta Tower with Xiao Yan and cultivate with her two senior sisters.

So, after having breakfast at the Dan Clan that morning, the master and disciple bid farewell to Madam Dan and returned to the Danta.

Xiao Yan instructed Dan Chen to return to her cultivation, while he greeted his girlfriends and fiancées before entering the Star Domain with Xuan Yi.

After entering the Star Domain, the two headed straight for where Old Yao was.

At this moment, Old Yao's aura had become extremely powerful, and according to Xiao Yan's perception, it was no less than that of his Grandmaster Uncle Xuan Kongzi.

And this was merely the aura that was leaked out during the resurrection.

In other words, Old Yao's current actual realm has still surpassed the Ninth-Turn Peak Dou Zun and entered the realm of Half-Saint.

As for whether he can break through to the Dou Sheng in one fell swoop, it depends on the Dou Qi he has accumulated during this period, the medicinal power of the pills in his body, and the enormous energy contained in this Dou Sheng body.

On Old Yao, he still wore the deep white robe that Xiao Yan had condensed for him with the Bone Spirit Cold Flame. His white hair was as white as snow, and his face was as handsome as jade. He was truly a handsome man.

Xiao Yan could only say that his teacher's good looks certainly played a part in his ability to keep several old flames!

Moreover, the Old Yao back then didn't have white hair; he just had ordinary black hair.

Now his hair is as white as snow, yet he doesn't appear pale. His youthful appearance, combined with his mature and handsome face, would surely make Xuan Ma completely captivated.

Tsk, let's go for the intensity!

We absolutely have to increase the intensity!

The trip to the Flower Sect must be put on the agenda!

Of course, before that, Xiao Yan wanted to make Xuan Ma happy first.

The Old Yao, who uniquely possesses the body of Dou Sheng!

Xuan Yi was naturally unaware that Xiao Yan, whom she treated like her own son, was planning to let her enjoy Yao Chen all to herself, but she always felt that something was off about the atmosphere.

The atmosphere is definitely not right!

Xiao Yan also frowned, his gaze suddenly fixed on Old Yao.

Because he had already keenly sensed that Old Yao's Bone Spirit Cold Flame seemed to be becoming somewhat active!

Although Xiao Yan has not yet been able to fully perceive Old Yao's physical condition, as an expert in playing with fire, Xiao Yan has already sensed Old Yao's situation from the fluctuations of the Bone Spirit Cold Flame!

Old Yao, you're about to wake up!

"Xuan Ma, the teacher looks like she's about to wake up!"

Xiao Yan suddenly spoke up.

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yi was taken aback at first, and then carefully sensed Yao Chen's aura. He quickly realized that a powerful force was gradually awakening from Yao Chen's body!

Although there wasn't much rich natural energy within the Star Domain, Xuan Yi sensed that streams of stellar power were being forcibly absorbed by Yao Chen's body, gradually becoming more violent along with the surging aura of revival!

Since there is no energy of heaven and earth to fluctuate, then the power of the stars will take its place!

Swish!

A deep white flame surged wildly from Old Yao's body, transforming him into a deep white fiery figure. His body, which had been lying flat in mid-air, slowly rose upright.

As the fiery figure opened its eyes, a beam of eerie white fire shot out, tearing apart the space within the Star Domain.

However, Xiao Yan and Xuan Yi showed no sign of panic whatsoever; instead, a deep joy welled up in their eyes.

It's obvious that the Yao Chen has revived!

Sure enough, as soon as this thought arose in their minds, the aura of the fiery figure suddenly surged. In a short while, it directly surpassed the Ninth-Turn Peak Dou Zun, and without any hesitation, it directly crossed the Half-Saint realm and reached the Dou Sheng realm!

An immense pressure swept out, shattering the space around the fiery figure. The shattered space was also burning with a pale white flame. Xiao Yan and Xuan Yi were not far in front of Yao Chen. After noticing the pressure spreading, Xuan Yi took the initiative to protect Xiao Yan behind her. Therefore, she was the first to bear the brunt of this pressure!

Even though Xuan Yi was strong enough, he was still no match for the pressure of a true Dou Sheng. Especially since Yao Chen had advanced to Dou Sheng and his soul power had increased significantly, his pressure far exceeded that of an ordinary One-Star Dou Saint. Therefore, after only a few breaths, Xuan Yi had to take a step back.

Seeing his Xuan Ma protecting him from behind, Xiao Yan was quite moved. He could only say that calling her "Mom" was truly well-deserved; this protective behavior had become muscle memory, ingrained in her very bones.

But Xiao Yan was not afraid of this so-called pressure.

He possesses the power to Devouring Ancestral Symbol!

Seeing that even Xuan Ma was struggling to withstand the teacher's terrifying pressure, Xiao Yan quickly stepped forward and waved his hand. A light black light membrane appeared in front of him, completely absorbing the terrifying pressure!

"Xiao Yan?"

Xuan Yi was surprised that Xiao Yan had this trick up his sleeve. She was also somewhat astonished to feel the oppressive force that had been suppressing her Dou Qi disappear in an instant.

But she didn't ask any more questions, only giving Xiao Yan a relieved look.

What a good child!

He's already able to protect his master's wife!

Although Xiao Yan wasn't trained by Xuan Yi from a young age, they had spent several years together. From initially loving Yao Chen out of affection for him, to later treating Xiao Yan as her own son, her feelings for Xiao Yan now far exceeded the ordinary teacher-student relationship; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were as close as mother and son.

In other words, even putting aside Old Yao, she truly treated Xiao Yan like a son.

If anyone dares to harm Xiao Yan, Xuan Yi will indeed go after them without considering the consequences.

Therefore, when Xiao Yan shielded her from the oppressive aura, Xuan Yi felt both gratified and touched, but also slightly dissatisfied.

What's with this Yao Chen?

So what if I advance to the Dou Sheng level?

He actually deliberately flaunted his Dou Sheng aura and even suppressed Xiao Yan?

This is absolutely outrageous!

Using force against her is one thing, but using force against Xiao Yan is unacceptable!

Seemingly sensing the danger in Xuan Yi's gaze, the fiery figure readily withdrew his oppressive aura, and then his Bone White Flame receded into his body, revealing the handsome man Yao Chen within.

"Congratulations, teacher, on breaking through to the Dou Sheng realm! From now on, the renowned Venerable Yao of Central Plains is a thing of the past. The era of the Medicine Saint is about to begin!"

Xiao Yan immediately knelt on one knee and offered his congratulations.

Although it had been a long time since the master and disciple had exchanged such formalities, and Old Yao had never liked these things, today was a special day, the day Old Yao was completely reborn. Therefore, Xiao Yan couldn't help but want to create a sense of ceremony.

This is why Old Yao only became Dou Sheng. If he had become Dou Emperor, Xiao Yan would have had to say to him, "Congratulations, teacher, on becoming an emperor!"

Upon hearing this, the Old Yao smiled faintly, but his hands moved swiftly as he helped his good disciple up.

Xiao Yan was willing to kneel because he respected his teacher, but the teacher himself didn't like these mundane formalities. His disciple should be a upright and honorable man, and he didn't need to kneel before anyone.

His resurrection took many days, and his soul had long since completely merged with his body. He only lay in bed for a few more days in order to break through to the Dou Sheng in one fell swoop.

During these days, he naturally became aware of the outside world, knowing that Xuan Yi was taking care of him every day, and that while this good disciple was busy cultivating, he would also frequently come to check on his situation.

Therefore, he couldn't possibly put on any airs of a Dou Sheng) when facing these two close relatives.

That oppressive aura just now was merely a test of Xiao Yan's strength.

Although he was satisfied with the result, seeing that Xuan Yi seemed somewhat unhappy, he dared not continue and could only quickly suppress his aura to avoid being questioned by Xuan Yi later.

He owes Xuan Yi too many emotional debts, which he can never repay. If he really pushes Xuan Yi too far, and she sheds a tear, he will be at a loss for what to do.

After all, although he was an expert in alchemy, he was no match for his disciple Xiao Yan when it came to soothing women.

"Hehe, alright, get up now. Speaking of which, I owe my success today to your tireless efforts over the years. I have to thank you!"

With a gentle smile on his face, Old Yao helped Xiao Yan and patted him heavily on the shoulder, his eyes filled with satisfaction.

He was more pleased with his disciple's achievements than with his breakthrough to the Dou Sheng.

"Hehe, without a teacher, there would be no disciple today. It should be the disciple thanking the teacher."

Xiao Yan scratched his head and said with a smile.

Having said that, as the most filial and righteous person in the Dou Qi Continent, Xiao Yan immediately stepped aside, revealing the Xuan Yi behind him, and hurriedly added:

"Teacher, Xuan Ma has been taking care of you these past few days; you should thank her."

Upon hearing this, the Old Yao's gaze also fell upon the Xuan Yi in the purple-gold and white dress.

He knew, of course, that Xuan Yi had been watching over him all these days. They had already recognized each other and lived together for many years, but after he regained his body, he couldn't face this devoted woman as familiarly as before. He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say, and his vision became blurred.

After a long silence, he finally managed to squeeze out a few words:

"Xuan Yi, it's been a long time."
