At this moment, Xiao Zhan was exceptionally excited and thrilled. He had never expected his son, Xiao Ze, to have improved his strength yet again.
To be honest, even Xiao Zhan himself found it terrifying.
Xiao Ze's cultivation speed was simply monstrous! It even made him, as a father, somewhat worried!
He worried that Xiao Ze might be targeted by others because his cultivation advanced too quickly!
If that day truly came, he did not know whether he, as a father, would be able to protect his son.
Thus, he felt somewhat self-reproachful and could only sigh that their Xiao Family was still too weak.
If they had the Misty Cloud Sect or the Gama Empire Royal Family behind them, having the protection of a great faction would always be better.
But things were not bad now either. Jia Xingtian, the guardian of the Jia Ma Empire's royal family, had even personally come to their humble Xiao Family in Wutan City.
All because of the importance he placed on Xiao Ze.
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhan grew even more excited and thrilled!
"Father, I have indeed reached the Five-Star Grand Dou Shi realm now! Let me show you."
Xiao Ze looked at the System Panel mission that had just been issued, then at his father Xiao Zhan's excited expression and burning gaze.
So he decided to satisfy him a little.
Thus, he began releasing his Dou Qi.
His Dou Qi was incredibly abundant. Compared to when he had been a Four-Star Grand Dou Shi last time, it had become a whole level more powerful.
"So you really are a Five-Star Grand Dou Shi!" Xiao Zhan had remained at the Five-Star Grand Dou Shi level for a long time.
Therefore, he understood very well what the Dou Qi and aura of a Five-Star Grand Dou Shi were like.
The strength Xiao Ze had just displayed was clearly that of a Five-Star Grand Dou Shi!
"Haha! As expected of my son! Your cultivation speed surpasses everyone in the Jia Ma Empire!" Xiao Zhan said excitedly.
Patting Xiao Ze on the shoulder, he soon left the family's Back Mountain and arrived at the Xiao Family's inner courtyard.
At this moment, Jia Xingtian, the guardian of the Jia Ma Empire's royal family, was seated on one of the long benches in the Xiao Family's main hall.
The many elders of the Xiao Family saw that Jia Xingtian was present, a peak Nine-Star Dou Emperor.
Oh, no. To be precise, he was now a Dou Zong expert!
After taking the Tier 6 Medicinal Pill, the Imperial Extreme Pill, his strength had surged. He had also taken the opportunity to break through the barrier of the Dou Emperor realm and advance to the Dou Zong realm!
The current Jia Xingtian was probably the Jia Ma Empire's only Dou Zong expert, right?
Such an expert had actually come to visit their Xiao Family.
And all of this was because of Xiao Ze. While excited and thrilled, the Xiao Family elders also felt somewhat ashamed as they recalled how they had once looked down on Xiao Ze!
"Elder Jia, our Xiao Family's patriarch, Xiao Zhan, has already gone to the family's Back Mountain to invite Xiao Ze over. Please wait a moment!" the Xiao Family elders said.
Jia Xingtian waved his hand and immediately replied, "It is no matter!"
Not long after he finished speaking, Xiao Zhan and Xiao Ze, father and son, walked into the Xiao Family's main hall.
Although Jia Xingtian had already become a Dou Zong expert, he was still exceptionally excited upon seeing Xiao Ze.
Then he said to him, "Little Friend Xiao Ze, I have you to thank for the medicinal pill you provided earlier. Otherwise, I could not have broken through to the Dou Zong realm so smoothly!"
"To express my gratitude, I came in person to invite you to visit the Gama Empire Royal Family. I wonder whether you would be interested?" Everyone in the Xiao Family was excited and envious upon hearing Jia Xingtian's words!
This was an invitation from the Gama Empire Royal Family!
It was entirely different from other factions.
This was the Gama Empire Royal Family, and Jia Xingtian was now a genuine Dou Zong expert!
After Xiao Ze arrived in the main hall and took a seat, he slowly spoke in response to Jia Xingtian's invitation. "There is no need for me to visit the Gama Empire Royal Family, is there?"
"I am used to staying here. The journey to the Gama Empire Royal Family is too far, so there is no need." Xiao Ze answered, refusing the offer.
Jia Xingtian did not show any displeasure because of Xiao Ze's refusal. Instead, he tried every possible way to curry favor with Xiao Ze.
Since Xiao Ze could produce a Tier 6 Medicinal Pill, there had to be a powerful Alchemist master or faction behind him.
Otherwise, even obtaining the recipe for such a precious Tier 6 Medicinal Pill as the Imperial Extreme Pill would be extraordinarily difficult.
After refusing Jia Xingtian, Xiao Ze looked at him and said, "It is indeed an extremely fortunate thing that Elder Jia was able to break through to the Dou Zong realm. The Imperial Extreme Pill was originally only a medicinal pill that helped Dou Emperor experts increase their strength; it was not an auxiliary pill used to break through the Dou Emperor barrier and advance to Dou Zong."
"Still, being able to successfully break through to Dou Zong through a fortunate coincidence is ultimately an excellent outcome."
"That is right! No matter what, I must properly thank you, Little Friend Xiao Ze."
Jia Xingtian said with great seriousness, "From now on, if your Xiao Family in Wutan City encounters any trouble, simply send someone to inform me. I, Jia Xingtian, will certainly not refuse."
"Not only me, but the Gama Empire Royal Family will also provide the greatest possible help and support!"
Hearing Jia Xingtian's words, Xiao Zhan was extremely excited. The elders at his side were no exception; they all reacted the same way.
Nalan Yanran had the Misty Cloud Sect as her backing, so what? The Xiao Family was now valued and supported by the royal family, and its backing was not inferior to that of the Misty Cloud Sect at all!
By evening, Xiao Ze looked at his System Panel. Earlier, he had displayed the strength of a Five-Star Grand Dou Shi, greatly shocking Xiao Zhan.
The mission had now been completed, and he had received a random draw as a reward.
At that moment, several lines of text immediately appeared on the system panel.
[Mission completed. The host displayed the strength of a Five-Star Grand Dou Shi and gained Xiao Zhan's shock! Reward: one random draw opportunity!]
Xiao Ze did not hesitate at all and immediately drew his reward.
[Host has drawn a reward and obtained an increase in alchemy level. Current level has risen to Tier 6.]
Xiao Ze's expression showed slight surprise. He had now received the Tier 6 alchemy skill rewarded by the system.
Even without relying on Yao Chen's help, he could independently refine Tier 6 Medicinal Pills.
After drawing the reward, Xiao Ze looked at the System Panel. The next mission was to shock the Xiao Family elders.
He was to make them marvel at his Five-Star Grand Dou Shi strength and cultivation speed.
He could also obtain another draw!
After a while, Xiao Ze left the family's Back Mountain and returned to the Xiao Family!
