Chapter 109 Fama Saves the Day
"It looks like things are getting lively. Would you mind if I joined in?"

Just then, a familiar, gentle yet aged voice entered Xiao Yan's ears, causing him to be startled and almost instantly turn his head to look in the direction from which the voice came.

The old man in the hemp robe stood in mid-air above the forest, just like Queen Medusa and the Amethyst Winged Lion King. His aura was not ostentatious, but he exuded an indescribable power.

The moment the old man spoke, Queen Medusa and the Amethyst Winged Lion King's expressions changed slightly, and they both turned to look at him.

"Fama? Why aren't you in your Alchemist Guild? What are you doing running around the Monster Mountain Range? Are you planning to hunt some high-level monsters to get their magic cores for alchemy?"

Queen Medusa chuckled softly. Although her expression seemed to become a little more serious, she still maintained her queenly pride. Her eyes turned slightly, staring intently at Fama.

After Queen Medusa finished speaking, the Amethyst Winged Lion King immediately stared warily at Fama, his hostility even more obvious than towards Queen Medusa.

Xiao Yan, who was below, suddenly realized something after hearing Queen Medusa's words.

"So, this senior is called Fama. However, Queen Medusa is ruthless enough. With just one sentence, she directly made the relationship between Senior Fama and the Amethyst Winged Lion King tense."

It can only be said that before he went out to gain experience, he had not suffered the hardship of studying properly. Otherwise, Xiao Yan would definitely feel familiar with the name Fa Ma.

If Xiao Yan had known Fa Ma's identity beforehand, he wouldn't have made those blunders during the alchemist level assessment.

"Queen Medusa, there's no need to sow discord. I came to the Monster Mountain Range only to retire, and I have no other intentions."

Fa Ma chuckled and explained, but he was actually feeling a bit bitter inside. The Amethyst Winged Lion King's hostility was no joke. In the past, the Gama Empire had had many clashes with the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

But Fa Ma was the most wronged in this matter, because he had nothing to do with it at all. In fact, not only did he not receive any benefits, but he was also coerced by Yun Shan with the promise of righteousness and made to do a lot of dirty and hard work in alchemy.

After all, the Yunlan Sect itself has very few alchemists. When their disciples are injured, they naturally turn to the Alchemist Guild. Since they are also from the Jia Ma Empire, Fa Ma cannot refuse.

"Hmph! Old man Fama, you wouldn't be thinking of taking my Purple Crystal Source, would you? I don't want to use it anymore, Medusa has already sent people to steal it all!"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King snorted coldly, and two pale purple flames spewed from its large nostrils. As it spoke, it gestured to Xiao Yan, who was looking up at them from the ground.

When Fa Ma saw Xiao Yan, a look of surprise appeared on his face, but he quickly suppressed it and said with a smile.

"Interesting. A little guy with the strength of a Dou Zhe not only obeys Queen Medusa's orders, but also manages to retrieve the companion amethyst source from the Lion King's cave. Tsk tsk, this little guy is not simple!"

Upon noticing Fa Ma's meaningful glance, Xiao Yan immediately understood and, feigning nervousness, clasped his hands in a respectful greeting to Fa Ma.

"Junior Xiao Yan greets Senior Fa Ma."

"Oh, your name is Xiao Yan? But it seems you don't recognize me?"

A look of surprise flashed across Fa Ma's face. This time he was not faking it. He thought that once Xiao Yan knew his name, he would know his true identity.

After all, as the president of the Alchemist Guild of the Gama Empire, Famo was very prestigious in the alchemist community of the Gama Empire. Generally, alchemists would address him as "President" when they met him.

Xiao Yan, however, assumed that Fa Ma was simply pretending not to know him, so he readily explained, "Senior, I have been training in the Monster Mountain Range recently. I noticed that there were powerful figures fighting here, so I came to take a look. Then, out of curiosity, I went into the cave to investigate. By chance, I took half of the companion amethyst source."

Xiao Yan chuckled awkwardly and scratched his head, feeling somewhat embarrassed. He had already received guidance from Fa Ma and owed Fa Ma a favor, and now he needed Fa Ma to save him.

What made Xiao Yan feel most guilty was that he had heard the information about the companion amethyst source from Fa Ma.

"Treasures belong to those who are destined to possess them; the little fellow certainly has a good opportunity."

After making a chuckled comment, Fa Ma stopped paying attention to Xiao Yan and instead shook his head at Queen Medusa, saying with a smile.

"Your Majesty, are you planning to forcibly seize it?"

"Rob me? I'll rob you then, so what? You want to fight me too? Don't break your old bones!"

Queen Medusa didn't explain, but just snorted coldly, her arrogant tone making Xiao Yan marvel.

Just now, if Queen Medusa had mentioned the previous deal, Xiao Yan would have been in the wrong and would have had to give Queen Medusa a share, but Queen Medusa didn't mention it at all.

"Your Majesty is too kind. I am long past the age of being competitive. However, this little fellow has some connection with me. Today, I would like to ask Your Majesty to give me some face, what do you say?"

"Hmph, old man Fama, if you want to protect him, then leave behind the accompanying amethyst source!"

Before Queen Medusa could speak, the Amethyst Winged Lion King spoke first.

Queen Medusa remained silent, simply standing aside and watching Fama, offering no opinion, and the three of them remained locked in a standoff.

"Does the Lion King really intend to harm him? Let me kindly remind you, his name is Xiao Yan, the fiancé of the young sect leader of the Yunlan Sect also has this name. Moreover, I've heard that Xiao Yan has an extremely powerful uncle. Queen Medusa should have met that person, right?"

"Yang Chen?"

Queen Medusa immediately gritted her teeth, and the Amethyst Winged Lion King beside her also instantly restrained its hostility, and its gaze towards Xiao Yan became kind, as if it were looking at a big Aries.

"So you're the True Lord's nephew. What a coincidence! In that case, you can take the Companion Amethyst Source with you."

This completely stunned Xiao Yan.

The ferocious Amethyst Winged Lion King just moments ago turned into a domestic dog the moment it heard its uncle's name.
"Now, may I take him away?"

Fama chuckled as the Amethyst Winged Lion King made no attempt to stop him, landing with its massive body. Queen Medusa, on the other hand, seemed to have a cold expression on her face.

"Hmph! Xiao Yan, is that it? Don't fall into my hands!"

After leaving behind a threatening remark, Queen Medusa did not linger any longer and transformed into a streak of light, disappearing into the horizon.
