Douluo: This soul master has a little bit of luck

Chapter 227: Xiao Yan's Feelings of Inadequacy
Honestly, Qi Lin is handsome, and he has a good temperament, but Xiao Yan didn't expect him to be so outstanding.

You should know that the teacher was once a top alchemist who was famous throughout the continent. He didn't even put the Pill King Gu He in his eyes. His standards were extremely high.

Even the teacher held Qi Lin in such high regard.

Even Xiao Yan felt somewhat ashamed when facing Qi Lin.

Damn, why does this Brother Qi seem a bit like a protagonist in a novel?
Xiao Yan muttered to himself.

At this moment, the old doctor's voice continued to ring out.

"Little Yanzi, that little guy named Qi Lin is no ordinary person. Judging from the aura emanating from him, his strength has probably reached the Dou Wang level, and what's most terrifying is his mental power."

"To be honest, even I can't sense the specific level of his spiritual power. I only know that it is definitely not weak and far surpasses yours."

"If he can refine medicine, his future achievements will be absolutely immeasurable."

After hearing this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Brother Qi is truly enviable!"

The old doctor laughed and said, "Haha, little Yanzi, you don't need to belittle yourself. Although your talent may not be as good as that young man's, you still have your teacher, don't you?"

"Don't worry, with your teacher here, your future achievements will certainly not be much worse than his."

Hearing his teacher's words of comfort, Xiao Yan's eyes brightened again, and he laughed heartily, "Teacher is right, and I believe you!"

"Haha, alright, go back first. Your master will refine a Foundation Establishment Elixir for you, ensuring you break through to the seventh stage of Dou Qi before the coming-of-age ceremony."

As the coming-of-age ceremony was approaching, a hint of anticipation flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes.

This time, he will show everyone the truth.

Xiao Yan is back!

……

After Xiao Xun'er and Qi Lin returned to the Xiao family, Xiao Zhan, the head of the Xiao family, personally visited Qi Lin that evening.

As the patriarch of the Xiao family, Xiao Zhan was well aware that Xiao Xun'er's background was far from simple. Although he didn't know why her father had entrusted her to the Xiao family, her background was likely even more powerful than that of the three major families of the Jia Ma Empire.

Over the years, although Xiao Xun'er seemed polite to everyone, she always maintained a slight distance from them.

Qi Lin is the first man in so many years that Xiao Xun'er values ​​so highly. Judging from her perspective, Qi Lin's identity is probably not simple.

Therefore, upon learning that Qi Lin would be staying at the Xiao family's residence for a few days, Xiao Zhan immediately decided to personally visit Qi Lin.

Sure enough, after seeing Qi Lin, Xiao Zhan confirmed his guess after just one glance.

Qi Lin's background is anything but simple.

This kind of temperament alone is something that an ordinary small family cannot cultivate.

Of course, there is another reason.

With his strength as a dignified six-star Grand Dou Master, he couldn't even see through the cultivation level of the young man in front of him.

"Uncle Xiao!" Xiao Xun'er greeted Xiao Zhan first when she saw him.

Qi Lin also cupped his hands and smiled, saying, "You must be Clan Chief Xiao. It's a pleasure to meet you. I've been staying at the Xiao family's residence for the past few days and have caused them trouble."

Xiao Zhan smiled back and cupped his hands, saying, "Young friend, you are too kind. It is an honor for my Xiao family to have you as a guest. You are welcome to stay here as long as you wish. My Xiao family welcomes you at any time."

After chatting for a while, both host and guest enjoyed themselves immensely.

As the patriarch of the Xiao family, Xiao Zhan considered himself to have some discernment. Now that he had encountered a young prodigy like Qi Lin, whom he couldn't quite see through, he naturally wanted to make his acquaintance with him. Even if it didn't lead to a formal friendship, it would be good to establish a positive connection.

After all, good karma can sometimes truly save lives.

Subsequently, Xiao Zhan personally arranged an exquisite courtyard for Qi Lin, adjacent to Xiao Xun'er's courtyard, and ordered all the furniture in it to be replaced with new ones.

After arranging everything, Xiao Zhan finally left with peace of mind.

……

The news that Qi Lin was a guest at the Xiao family quickly spread throughout the family.

Even today, when Qi Lin and Xiao Xun'er went shopping at the Xiao Family Market, quite a few members of the Xiao Family saw the two of them.

Xiao Xun'er's closeness to Qi Lin, in particular, caused a great sensation among the younger generation of the Xiao family.

After all, Xiao Xun'er was considered a goddess figure in the Xiao family.

Countless young members of the Xiao family are infatuated with her, and Xiao Ning, the grandson of the First Elder, is especially fond of her.

However, Xiao Xun'er has never been close to anyone.

But now, she's actually quite close to a man.

Seeing this scene, or hearing this news, countless members of the Xiao family must have been heartbroken.

While heartbroken, they naturally developed a strong curiosity about Qi Lin, the culprit.

Who exactly is this person who has managed to gain the favor of my cousin Xun'er?

What makes him special?
In a courtyard, Xiao Ning was stunned when he heard the news from his younger brother, and then suddenly let out a sound.

"No!"

"How could this be? Why is my cousin Xun'er suddenly so close to a strange man?"

Xiao Ning looked distressed as he gazed at his underling, Xiao Li, who had come to deliver the message. He gripped Xiao Li's hand tightly and said in a deep voice, "Cousin Xiao Li, since you saw that man, do you know who he is?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Li hesitated slightly before saying, "Cousin Xiao Ning, I don't know that person either, but judging from his appearance, he shouldn't be from Wutan City, and..."

Xiao Li glanced at Xiao Ning, and finally hesitated before continuing, "Cousin Xiao Ning, the person that Cousin Xun'er is close to seems to have a rather unusual background. To put it bluntly, we really can't compare to him. He's probably a disciple of a powerful family or influential family."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ning's expression immediately froze. He asked incredulously, "Cousin Xiao Li, what you're saying is a bit too exaggerated. How can you make such a judgment based solely on appearance and demeanor? What if he's just a pretty boy?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Li's lips twitched.

He naturally knew that Xiao Ning liked Xiao Xun'er, but the reason he said this now was mainly because he was unwilling to accept the reality that Xiao Xun'er liked someone else.

Therefore, Xiao Li said speechlessly, "Whether he's a pretty boy or not, Cousin Xiao Ning will know after taking a look."

On the way to the market with Qi Lin, Xiao Li clearly saw Qi Lin from a distance, which is why he came to that conclusion just now.

It can only be said that Qi Lin is so distinctive that you can sense his extraordinary qualities at a glance.

After listening, Xiao Ning's expression changed several times. Looking at Xiao Li's serious expression, he had actually agreed with what Xiao Li said.

However, he still held a sliver of hope, wanting to see what Qi Lin looked like that would earn such a high evaluation from Xiao Li.

What if he really is just a gigolo?
