Chapter 33 Suppression
As a third-rank alchemist, Liu Panlong's status is indeed incomparable to that of Jialebi and others. It is natural that under his command, he cannot have only a useless disciple like Liu Xi.

But even so, after learning that Liu Xi disappeared for no reason, he was still very angry. After all, no matter how useless Liu Xi was, it would not be a problem for him to become a first-class alchemist in the future.

This kind of disciple still has some value.

Therefore, after receiving some news from the Galie family, Liu Panlong rushed over, wanting an explanation or to recover some losses.

However, after arriving in Wutan City and hearing about Xiao Yan's situation, his thoughts quickly changed.

A peerless genius who became an alchemist at the age of twelve. Compared with him, Liu Xi is nothing.

If I could get a disciple like this, I would probably be able to rise to prominence with him in the future.

Even if Xiao Yan looked down on him, he could introduce Xiao Yan to some more powerful alchemists, thereby gaining favors from both a big shot and a future big shot.

Compared with this, he would not feel sad even if ten or eight Liu Xi died, let alone one.

As for the affairs of the Gale family, he never took them to heart at all.

What a scumbag, trying to use me as a gun. Once I have done what I want, I will let the Xiao family drive the Jialie family out of Wutan City.

"Haha, Master Liu personally took action, what does a mere Xiao family matter to you?"

Seeing Liu Panlong nod, Galeb smiled and said a few words to please him, but the murderous intent in his heart became stronger.

"As long as Liu Panlong finds out that there is no fourth-grade alchemist behind the Xiao family, I will immediately mobilize all the power of the family to kill Xiao Yan directly."

Galbi sneered in his heart.

"No matter how great a genius is, he is still just a genius. Before he grows into a strong man, he is still fragile."

In the evening, Xiao Yan returned from the back mountain. Just as he was about to wash up and have dinner, he met an old servant of Xiao Zhan again.

"Master, the master wants you to come over for a moment."

The old servant looked at Xiao Yan, but his expression was unusually solemn.

"Oh, what does father want to talk to me about this time?"

Seeing the old servant's solemn expression, Xiao Yan was slightly startled and couldn't help but ask in a deep voice.

"Well, it's nothing serious. It's just that a third-grade alchemist suddenly came to our house. According to the head of the family, it seems difficult to distinguish between this alchemist and our friend, so the head of the family is quite cautious."

The old servant thought for a moment and then quickly answered.

"Third-grade alchemist?"

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"I understand, I'll be there right away."

The moment Xiao Yan walked around the quiet path and into the family hall, he felt a rather solemn atmosphere.

At the top of the hall, although Xiao Zhan and several elders had smiles on their faces, their brows showed a serious expression.

Next to them, an old man with a haughty look was sipping hot tea with a smile on his face. On his luxurious alchemist robe was an embroidered medicine cauldron and three crescent-shaped ripples.

"It's really you!"

Looking at the arrogant old man, Xiao Yan's lips curled up into an imperceptible sneer.

In his previous life, it was this old guy who took advantage of the Xiao family’s bad situation to rob them, but was corroded into a pool of mud by Cai Lin with just one move.

Unexpectedly, this old guy came faster in this life.

Seeing Xiao Yan's arrival, Xiao Zhan and the others looked even more solemn.

According to this old guy, his disciple who disappeared in Wutan City seemed to have some relationship with Xiao Yan. Although they didn't quite believe it in their hearts, Xiao Zhan and others were more afraid that this old guy would find trouble.

"You are the talented young man that has been making the rounds in Wutan City recently, Xiao Yan?"

The moment he saw Xiao Yan, Liu Panlong could no longer sit still.

Because when his soul power swept over, he could already vaguely feel Xiao Yan's incomparably solid and far superior soul power. At such a young age, he already had such soul power. This boy's future was simply limitless.

Liu Panlong was overjoyed, but based on his usual method of controlling people with both kindness and force, he planned to first give Xiao Yan a warning and then do him a favor.

Only in this way can this enchanting genius remember his kindness firmly.

"Exactly."

Looking at Liu Panlong's condescending expression, as if examining him, Xiao Yan's eyes showed a strange sneer.

"Half a year ago, one of my disciples named Liu Xi suddenly disappeared in Wutan City. According to my information, it seems to be related to you, little fellow."

Liu Panlong narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Xiao Yan with a sharp, scrutinizing gaze.

"I wonder if little friend Xiao Yan has really seen my useless disciple?"

In fact, even he himself did not believe that Liu Xi was killed by the young man in front of him.

No matter how talented this boy was, he was only a twelve-year-old boy after all. However, what he didn't expect was that the boy nodded calmly and whispered, "Yes, I have indeed seen Liu Xi."

After the voice fell, the expressions of Xiao Zhan and others changed slightly, as if they did not expect Xiao Yan to admit it so straightforwardly.

"You actually met him?"

After hearing this, Liu Panlong couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and couldn't help asking: "Where is he now?"

"It's in our Xiao family."

Xiao Yan smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Liu Xi was drunk last night. If you want to see him, please follow me."

As he spoke, Xiao Yan gave a look to stop Xiao Zhan and others who were hesitant to speak behind Liu Panlong.

"This evil beast!"

After hearing what Xiao Yan said, Liu Panlong did not doubt the twelve-year-old boy too much. He thought that Liu Xi had really been living a life of debauchery in the Xiao family for half a year.

After all, this is something Liu Xi could indeed do.

For a moment, the rage in his heart even made him forget about accepting Xiao Yan as his disciple. He waved his hand and said, "Lead the way, let me see what this bastard is doing now!"

"No problem, old sir."

Seeing Liu Panlong's appearance, Xiao Yan's smile became even wider. He waved his right hand slightly, signaling Xiao Zhan and others to rest assured, and then he took Liu Panlong towards his own cabin.

"Young, neither humble nor overbearing, and thoughtful."

Following behind Xiao Yan, Liu Panlong became more and more frightened. It seemed that the talented young man in front of him was not as easy to control as he had imagined.

It seems that we need to be more careful when dealing with him.

As he was thinking this, he saw Xiao Yan taking him into a quiet little house.

The hut was simple and quaint. Apart from the faint scent of medicine, there was no living creature in it, let alone his disciple Liu Xi.

"What about people?"

Looking at this scene, Liu Panlong suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Dead."

While he was feeling uneasy, the young man in black suddenly turned around, revealing a row of white teeth. In that sunny smile he said words that chilled Liu Panlong's heart.

"Teacher, let's do it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a vast soul force suddenly descended, easily sealing off the entire hut.

In the face of that vast spiritual pressure, Liu Panlong felt as if he was a small boat swaying in the ocean.

With a thud, he couldn't help but kneel on the ground, looking with a pale face at the illusory old man who had floated in front of him at some point.
