Chapter 338 Cao Ying's Interests
During this month, Xiao Yuan's main task was to restore his soul essence, practice skills and fighting skills.
Unfortunately, what came out of Chen Xian's rings were all rubbish skills, which Xiao Yuan didn't care about at all.
However, he had a lot of fighting skills, so he didn't feel too sorry, not to mention that Xuan Yi gave him a set of soul handprints, which could be used for fighting and alchemy.
In addition, there was a standard robe of Danta, which was a white robe embroidered with purple and gold patterns. The style was very classic and gorgeous. Obviously, this robe also represented a symbol of status.
It is said that in Danta, the clothes on the body were embroidered with purple and gold patterns. Only the standard robes of the three giants of Danta had this specification. Xuan Yi was obviously not joking with Xiao Yuan, and he really wanted to give Xiao Yuan the identity of one of the next generation of the three giants of Danta.
In addition, Yao Lao's ancient black ring, the ancient flame ring, was also worn by Xuan Yi, and then Yao Lao was "forced" to stay with Xuan Yi every day. Although he was embarrassed to say it, Xiao Yuan could see that Yao Lao's soul strength and mental state were much better when he was with Aunt Xuan than before.
And Xiao Yan participated in the assessment of the five major families, the soul realm of the spiritual realm and the level of the eighth-grade alchemist. He passed the assessment with a relaxed and happy attitude, pretending to be awesome and slapping people in the face, shocking the audience and having no rivals.
Because the assessment was semi-public, many forces went to support it, and they also wanted to make friends with young people with excellent assessment results. Of course, there were also some forces that wanted to replace the Ye family.
Unfortunately, they could only become witnesses of Xiao Yan's great success in the end.
Many people also wanted to make friends with Xiao Yan, but fortunately, Xiao Yan returned directly to Danta after the assessment. Although some powerful forces can still enter Danta to look for people, they are not qualified to enter the private courtyard where Xuan Yi lives on the top floor.
This made Xiao Yan feel relieved.
However, the only thing that made him feel uncomfortable was
"Xiao Yan, come out and spar with me!"
A graceful figure appeared at the entrance of Xuan Yi's courtyard. She walked straight in with lotus steps.
The woman had a long body, a black dress, and a cold and arrogant temperament. Her skin was like snow, and her three thousand black hair was casually scattered on her shoulders. Her cheeks were slightly thin, but extremely delicate, like porcelain. Anyone who saw it would be attracted by this perfect face. The narrow and slightly lazy eyes were full of enchantment and charm.
"Alas, I really don't have time to spar with you."
Inside the house, Xiao Yan walked out helplessly, looking at the demon girl in front of him and said helplessly.
This girl's name is Cao Ying. She is the most talented and the most sophisticated in alchemy among the young generation of the Cao family of the five major families.
At the same time, she is also one of the candidates for the future Danta giant!
The former name may not be loud, but the latter is enough to make countless people regard it as a high god. The Danta giant, this position with great power in the whole continent, anyone sitting there will truly feel what it means to have overwhelming power.
Danta, the holy place in the hearts of all alchemists on the continent, it can even be said without hesitation that the giant of Danta is the spiritual leader in the hearts of countless alchemists. The appeal of Danta is unquestionable, and this appeal depends entirely on the will of the Danta giant!
Cao Ying, the most outstanding genius in the history of the Cao family, one of the three giants of Danta, and the direct disciple of Xuan Kongzi, according to her current development trend, a hundred years later, she will definitely be a candidate for the Danta giant, and even if she has the opportunity, she can eliminate the so-called candidate quota, and then. She will become the youngest female giant since the establishment of Danta!
But with Xiao Yuan as a role model, Xiao Yan was not interested in this, after all, his third brother was really one of the next three giants of Danta.
As for why the two of them were connected, it can be traced back to Xin Lan.
When the Ye family declined, they had no choice but to contact the Cao family for a marriage.
However, they did not completely confirm this matter, but only exchanged opinions initially.
Ye Xin Lan certainly would not be willing to marry someone she did not know or like at all, so Ye Chong sent her to Canaan College, and then she met the two brothers Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yan.
Before coming to Shengdan City some time ago, Cao Dan, who was almost engaged to Ye Xinlan, came to the Ye family to cause trouble, but was blocked by Xiao Yan.
Not surprisingly, Xiao Yan was also remembered. Cao Dan was not as skilled as others, so he could only tell tales and told Cao Ying about it.
However, Cao Ying was not interested in this matter, and they should have been at peace.
But Xiao Yan had already broken through to the eighth-grade alchemist. Even if he withdrew his soul power for the test, he still broke the record left by Cao Ying.
This was originally a very common thing.
But in connection with the previous incident with Cao Dan, it seemed that Xiao Yan was provoking the Cao family.
In addition, Cao Ying has always been a proud girl, and this is the first time she has met someone who can surpass herself. Although the person who surpassed her was only herself back then, it is undeniable that Xiao Yan did arouse her interest.
So she had a competition with Xiao Yan in the assessment, but Xiao Yan learned from her in front of her and learned a soul handprint that she had practiced. He even used the replica of the soul handprint to inflict higher damage than her and slapped her away.
Although she is arrogant and competitive, she is not someone who cannot afford to lose. Therefore, although she has some resentment towards Xiao Yan's performance, she is more curious about Xiao Yan, a strong rival.
What she likes most is not that no one can defeat her, but that she can really meet some opponents who are qualified for her to fight. Dan Chen is one of them in the past, but that girl is usually hidden tightly by the Dan family for fear of any accidents. Unless there is something serious, she will not leave the Dan family. Therefore, it is really a dry firewood to catch Xiao Yan. Uh, she is happy to see the prey.
Back to Dan Tower, he mentioned this matter to Xuan Kongzi, and Xuan Kongzi happened to tell him that Xuan Yi had a disciple, so Cao Ying immediately linked the previous turmoil caused by Xiao Yuan to Xiao Yan, and then pestered Xiao Yan.
And today, it is her third time here.
The first two times, one time Xiao Yan was refining pills, and the other time he deliberately let her go, and the game ended in a tie.
With Cao Ying's temperament, of course she will not give up.
Moreover, the men Cao Ying had met in the past, whether they were excellent or mediocre, would inevitably have some emotional fluctuations when they saw her, but Xiao Yan was different. Xiao Yan even felt that her entanglement was a bit annoying.
This huge sense of disparity also made Cao Ying feel a little uncomfortable, but it was only a little.
More importantly, she was upset about Xiao Yan's disrespectful behavior of deliberately letting her win as an apology.
She was not so bad at losing, so who was she looking down on by letting her win?
Now that the alchemy meeting was about to start, she naturally couldn't help but come again!
When she heard Xiao Yan say that he had no time to spar with her, she was also a little annoyed, and a dangerous arc slowly rose at the corner of her slender lips.
At the moment when this arc was raised, the thin and charming cheeks were instantly full of demonic spirit.
"No time? If you really don't have time, you wouldn't have come out in person. Just fight with me. It'll be quick!"
Cao Ying heard that Xiao Yan's words were obviously perfunctory, so she took action immediately. The power of her soul surged and churned, with a hint of undetectable spirituality.
Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed slightly.
Is this a test? Or is it for real?
Taking a deep breath, her plump chest rose and fell, Cao Ying stretched out her hands, each forming a strange hand seal, and then they changed like fighting each other.
As the hand seals of her hands changed, a series of magnificent soul powers began to linger between her palms. A strange soul pressure made Xiao Yan raise his eyebrows. Although this soul hand seal was the same as before, it had a direct qualitative change due to the spiritual power. An ordinary seventh-grade high-level alchemist could not handle it!
But. These days, Xiao Yan was not wasting his time. He actually had this soul handprint. Xuan Yi certainly would not be partial. Since he gave one to Xiao Yuan, he would naturally give one to Xiao Yan.
It was just that Xiao Yan was busy consolidating himself, so he naturally did not have time to practice it before the assessment of the five major families.
But after seeing the power of this thing, Xiao Yan would naturally not neglect it and took time to practice it.
During this period, he also communicated with Xiao Yuan to verify it. Now, for this kind of soul skill, he is naturally at ease!
"Bang!"
Cao Ying's handprints that changed like lightning suddenly solidified. At this moment, her hands maintained a strange seal. Ordinary people would only be confused at a glance, because this mark had nothing to do with some marks of fighting skills.
After the handprint was formed, Cao Ying smiled lightly on her cheek, and then her left hand suddenly pushed out!
As soon as the handprint moved, a majestic palm print rushed out like a tiger coming down the mountain, and the low tiger roar sounded in the courtyard.
The invisible majestic palm print rapidly enlarged in Xiao Yan's pupils, and his hair and robes were blown back at this moment.
However, Xiao Yan formed a seal with a faster and simpler method, and before Cao Ying's majestic palm print fell, he also condensed a soul print with a gleaming aura and slapped it out.
"Bang!"
The invisible ripples surged out like waves, and Xiao Yan's body shook, and he resisted this wave of impact.
"Hua La La!"
The invisible soul ripples swept out at the collision point and spread out. The mutual collision of this level of soul power was enough to destroy the surrounding buildings.
"Alas, you have to be careful when sparring!"
Just before the surrounding walls and houses were almost shattered, a helpless voice sounded, and the invisible soul power spread like a tide, easily annihilating the aftermath of the two people's confrontation.
Xiao Yuan, dressed in a standard white robe, walked back from outside the courtyard.
He had just attended the elders' meeting of Danta. To be honest, it was not interesting. The elder of Danta who had met at the Alchemist Trade Fair said that he would discuss the issue of his killing in Shengdan City with the elders at the elders' meeting. As a result, Xiao Yuan stood next to Xuanyi. The moment Xuanyi announced his identity, the elder was speechless.
What are you talking about?
He is a disciple of the three giants and the next three giants of Danta. According to the rules, he has to salute Xiao Yuan when he sees him.
What else can I say? If you really don't have a brain to make trouble for others, it will be like: Who is this person in the hall, why are you suing me?
As for whether the elders are convinced by Xiao Yuan?
Xuanyi said: "If you can refine the eighth-grade elixir of seven-color elixir thunder in your early twenties and can compete with the five-star Dou Zun, then I can give you my position."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was sure that this handsome young man was the mysterious alchemist who caused a stir in Shengdan City some time ago.
Before, everyone thought that Xuan Yi's statement that he had a disciple was an excuse. But now they see it, good fellow, this is a dragon lurking in the abyss, and if it doesn't make a sound, it will be a blockbuster!
As for whether Xiao Yuan can beat the five-star Dou Zun, no one of them has seen this, but they will not question it.
Because there is no need for Xuan Yi to exaggerate and discredit himself.
In this way, the elders will all be honest.
Therefore, things are progressing very smoothly, and it is confirmed that Xiao Yuan will preside over this alchemy meeting. Everything else remains as usual, and the elders only need to follow the steps.
Xiao Yuan, who had returned from the meeting successfully, happened to encounter the scene of demolishing the house and stopped it.
"Brother, you are back."
Xiao Yan withdrew his fierce soul power, walked towards Xiao Yuan with a smile, and greeted him.
"Well, I'm back."
Xiao Yuan smiled and nodded.
Cao Ying frowned when she saw the two brothers acting as if no one was around, but soon she discovered that Xiao Yuan's white robe was actually dotted with some purple and gold patterns and decorations!
"Are you the direct disciple of Senior Xuan Yi that Master mentioned?"
Naturally, Xuan Kongzi did not tell Cao Ying about Yao Lao. He just mentioned the relationship between Xiao Yuan and Xuan Yi and asked her to make friends with them. After all, if nothing else happened, she and the handsome man in front of her made her The men who are all amazed will become one of the three giants of Danta in the future.
"Brother, this is the genius of the Cao family I mentioned before, Cao Ying."
Xiao Yan introduced.
The first two times when Cao Ying came to the courtyard, Xiao Yuan was practicing in seclusion, so naturally he had no interaction with Cao Ying.
Now is the first time we meet.
"Oh, nice to meet you. I'm Xiao Yuan."
Xiao Yuan smiled and cupped his hands when he heard this.
"Cao Ying."
Cao Ying didn't really like these polite things and responded with a smile.
"I heard that you refined the elixir of seven-color elixir?"
Cao Ying asked next.
"Yes."
Xiao Yuan nodded.
"I can't refine the seven-color elixir, but you are very strong!"
A solemn look appeared in Cao Ying's eyes, and she said in a deep voice.
From the fact that Xiao Yuan did not conceal the spiritual energy in his soul power just now, she could already see that Xiao Yuan's soul power far exceeded hers!
"I told you before that my brother is Senior Xuan Yi's disciple. If you don't believe it, you should believe it now, right?"
Xiao Yan sighed.
"What happened between us has nothing to do with this." Cao Ying shook her head, swayed towards Xiao Yan, and said with a smile, "I know you have reservations, and I will have a good fight with you when the elixir meeting comes. ! Xiao Yan, don’t let me down!”
A faint scent of fragrance came to face Cao Ying as she opened and closed her red lips. Xiao Yan looked at the enchanting face so close. When his heart rippled, he also felt a little vigilant. He smiled calmly and said: "Danhui, I will naturally do my best, but not to make you disappointed."
"Haha, your answer is really surprising. I can't even answer the question. Say goodbye. We'll see you again later!"
Her beautiful eyes took a deep look at Xiao Yan, and the corners of Cao Ying's lips curved with a hint of demonic aura. Then she turned around and walked out of the yard, leaving Xiao Yan with a lazy and proud figure.
Looking at the beautiful figure, Xiao Yan also let out a sigh of relief. Although he rarely thought about the affairs of men and women, he couldn't bear to be surrounded by his third brother.
Therefore, he naturally understood that since Cao Ying was so interested in him now, it was difficult to say how the relationship would develop in the future.
No matter what, it's better to keep a respectful distance. (End of chapter)
