Compared to Xian'er's disdain, Xiao Yan was now so hungry he was willing to eat anything.

"Little Yanzi, you don't have to suffer like this. It's just that my recovery will take a little longer," Elder Yao advised in Xiao Yan's mind.

At the same time, I was deeply moved. The grudge between Nalan Yanran and Xiao Yan was so great that it was beyond words.

This time, Xiao Yan is actually going to save the patriarch of the Nalan Family, Nalan Yanran's grandfather!

The level of forbearance involved is self-evident.

Xiao Yan wouldn't have resorted to this method if it weren't for wanting Elder Yao to recover as soon as possible. This also made Elder Yao realize he hadn't misjudged the situation; he had made the right choice in accepting a disciple!

"Teacher, don't worry! I don't have that much hatred for the Nalan Family," Xiao Yan said calmly.

However, Xiao Yan's tone proved that his heart was not as calm as he claimed.

Just as Elder Yao was about to say something, Xiao Yan stopped in front of a magnificent mansion. "We're here!"

While Xiao Yan was on his way to rescue the Nalan Family, Xiao Zhan also quietly arrived in Garma Holy City.

Xiao Zhan still wanted to personally support this so-called Three-Year Agreement. Moreover, according to Xiao Han, it was necessary to discuss his son's marriage with the other party's elders.

At this moment, Xiao Zhan was listening to news about Xiao Yan.

"What?" Xiao Zhan's voice rose slightly as he asked in astonishment, "Yan Er went to treat Old Master Nalan's illness?"

"You're not wrong?" Even though he knew the person in front of him couldn't possibly be lying to him, Xiao Zhan still couldn't believe it.

"It's absolutely true! The Third Young Master is now using the Yan Xiao and has gone to remove the Branding Poison from Old Master Nalan with his own Exotic Fire." Xiao Wufa also understood his family patriarch's disbelief.

In fact, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that Xiao Yan would help save Old Master Nalan's life.

Xiao Zhan remained silent for a long time, then a relieved smile appeared on his serious face. "Yan Er has grown up!"

Putting aside why Xiao Yan wanted to save that Old Master Nalan, the fact that he was able to suppress his own resistance and approach the Nalan Family is enough to prove that Xiao Yan's character is extraordinary.

He's no longer the impetuous young man who could be provoked by a few insults.

Moreover, according to Xiao Zhan's estimation, Xiao Yan was probably enduring such humiliation in order to restore his teacher's strength, which made Xiao Zhan even more satisfied.

"Alright, you can continue protecting Yan Er's safety!"

"Yes!" Xiao Wufa disappeared from the room before he could finish speaking.

"Chieftain!"

Before long, a figure appeared silently in front of Xiao Zhan from the shadows.

"What, have you found out about the Chu Yun Empire's plans?" Xiao Zhan regained his original imposing manner and said in a cold voice.

Xiao Zhan had already decided to the Chu Yun Empire, and would gladly give its vast territory to the Jia Ma Empire as a favor.

With this in mind, Xiao Zhan adopted a resolute stance against all the schemes of the Chu Yun Empire. This Alchemist Conference was no exception.

"Yes!" the Xiao Clan said, "The person from the Chu Yun Empire who infiltrated the Alchemist Grand Meeting of the Gama Jia Ma Empire this time was Yan Li, the vice president of the Chu Yun Empire Alchemist Association."

"Yan Li?" Xiao Zhan was puzzled. He didn't recognize this person!

"Yan Li is only a Fourth Rank Alchemist, so he is not within the scope of my Xiao Clan's intelligence network." The member of the Xiao Clan saw Xiao Zhan's confusion and took the initiative to explain.

The Xiao Clan naturally possessed its own intelligence network in the Northwest Continent. They had a good understanding of many well-known Dou Emperor -level powerhouses and Alchemist Fifth Rank.

Yan Li clearly wasn't qualified. If the other party hadn't become the unlucky one pushed to the forefront this time, he would have remained a nobody.

"Only Fourth Rank Alchemist?" Xiao Zhan said with some displeasure. "The Chu Yun Empire is truly petty!"

He thought he could make the Chu Yun Empire bleed this time!

"The level of Alchemist in the Chu Yun Empire is far behind that of the Jia Ma Empire. The only difference is that the president of the Alchemist Association of the Izumo Empire is a Fifth Grade Alchemist. Therefore, Fourth Rank Alchemist should be the limit for them."

Upon hearing this, the member of the Xiao Clan family defended the Chu Yun Empire, saying that the other side was in a rather pitiful situation.

Moreover, the only area where the former Jia Ma Empire could surpass other countries was in Alchemist.

"Fourth Rank Alchemist..." Xiao Zhan murmured for a moment, calculating in his mind, "This isn't difficult enough!"

Xiao Yan was well aware that Xiao Zhan had participated in the Alchemist Grand Meeting, and he could not keep the news of Xiao Yan becoming Fourth Rank Alchemist from him either.

Xiao Zhan knew very well that with the guidance of that Medicine Venerable, Xiao Yan's progress in alchemy would far exceed expectations, and a mere Fourth Rank Alchemist was simply not qualified to compare with him.

Xiao Zhan did not want Xiao Yan to win the Alchemist Grand Meeting too easily, and after a moment's thought, a plan came to mind.

"Invite a Fifth Grade Alchemist from the Medicine Hall to participate in this year's Alchemist Grand Meeting," Xiao Zhan instructed.

"Clan leader..." The Xiao Clan hesitated for a moment, "Wouldn't this be inappropriate?"

He was inwardly criticizing Xiao Zhan's actions. The clan leader was really too kind to his son, actually treating him like that. Luckily, he was his own flesh and blood.

Moreover, he estimated that if this capricious order were issued, the Medicine Hall would most likely be in an uproar.

Fifth Grade Alchemist mixed in with this group of young people is like a tiger among sheep—it's a complete rout! Family Alchemist would never stoop to such bullying tactics.

Success would be a given, but if they lost, they'd lose face in front of several neighboring countries. Those Fifth Grade Alchemist couldn't afford that cost; it would be a completely thankless task!

Xiao Zhan knew the nature of the Xiao Clan's Alchemist and knew he couldn't let them work for free, so he added a sentence.

"Those who are willing to come will be given the opportunity to observe the insights of the family's Sixth Grade Alchemist."

"Yes!" This time the answer was quite quick and decisive.

He could already picture the lively scene of the Fifth Grade Alchemist in the Medicine Hall fighting over this precious spot.

"Xiao Clan Leader, may I ask what brings you to our Alchemist Association?" Fa Ma asked with a smile, looking at Xiao Zhan with his perpetually squinting eyes.

Although he was not familiar with Xiao Zhan, Xiao Zhan's strength and family influence were enough for him to be fully prepared.

Moreover, as far as he knew, the Alchemist Guild Wutan City Branch of the Jia Ma Empire had always received the care of the Xiao Clan, who provided the association with a lot of resources.

Fa Ma has always been friendly to his friends in the Alchemist Association.

"Fa Ma, I have come here to request a favor from you."

"Oh?" Fa Ma let out a soft exclamation. The Xiao Clan's overall strength was no weaker than their Alchemist Guild! Why would they need him to do them any favors?

However, despite these thoughts, Fa Ma still asked, "I wonder what favor Xiao Clan Leader would like me to do?"

"I hope that President Fa Ma will allow one of my Xiao Clan's Fifth Grade Alchemist to participate in this Alchemist Grand Meeting."

Xiao Zhan said something that was sure to shock everyone.
