Battle Through the Heavens: He possesses extraordinary comprehension and is born a Battle Emperor!

Chapter 72 Cultivating Talent, the Royal Family Sends a Princess?

The Golden Emperor Burning Flame, which had transformed into a bracelet, seemed to nod, and then obediently stayed on Xiao Chong's wrist.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Chong naturally smiled.

Although this unexpected situation had occurred, Xiao Chong could not be a heartless person, and the Golden Emperor's request was not too difficult for him.

He's just a mere Battle Saint; with his comprehension, it probably won't be long before he becomes one.

Having retrieved the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame, Xiao Chong emerged from the sealed place and checked the weather outside.

"It seems that it took more than two days just to set up the seal... But let's just say I've also comprehended the following six Heaven-Sealing Seals. Perhaps there will be a time in the future when I can use this sealing technique."

In the past two days, Wutan City and the Xiao family seem to be a bit more lively, probably because the news about the battlefield of the Chuyun Empire has spread almost throughout the Northwest Continent, and many people have come here to see it.

However, at the same time, Xiao Chong sensed a surge of energy coming from the back mountain.

It seems that Xiao Yan has successfully consumed the strange fire.

Let's go over there and check out the situation first.

"Hahaha, I've finally subdued my first different kind of flame!"

As soon as we arrived at the back of the mountain, bursts of wild laughter nearly hurt our ears.

After opening the spatial gate at the back of the mountain, Xiao Chong immediately sensed an aura that was roughly equivalent to a nine-star Dou Wang.

It seems that due to the cultivation technique, Xiao Yan's strength increased much more after absorbing the strange fire than expected.

After entering the back mountain, Xiao Chong felt a surge of energy.

Xiao Yan was now enveloped by the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, while Yao Lao, who was currently in his soul form, was also looking at Xiao Yan with a satisfied gaze.

With so many precious materials here, plus Xiao Yan's affinity with the strange fire, the process of absorbing the flame was relatively safe.

"Did it work?"

Xiao Chong walked in from the back mountain at this moment, glanced at Xiao Yan's current situation, and nodded.

Then he poured a bucket of cold water directly over Xiao Yan's head, who was caught up in his excitement.

"So, what grade do you think you are now as an alchemist?"

Speaking of this, Xiao Yan awkwardly touched his nose and said, "Well, I'm only at the second rank, I guess."

"After all, I've only been learning from Master Yao for half a month now. Although I now have a different kind of fire and my own strength has improved, I've only been learning alchemy for a short time."

"That's enough, a twelve-year-old second-grade alchemist..."

Xiao Chong smiled with satisfaction.

Although this news is far less impressive than his own strength, it can at least serve as a deterrent and is beneficial for recruiting alchemists from the Xiao family in the future.

Yao Chen nodded in agreement and said, "That's right, my disciple, your older brother is a complete prodigy. Don't take him too seriously."

"Also, you've been here for quite a while now. Although this medicinal field space is very nice, it's time to go out and explore."

"Master is right, Brother Xiao Chong, please open the door."

Xiao Yan nodded to Yao Lao, who then hid inside the ring. Xiao Chong opened the spatial door to the medicine field and they all went out together, returning to the Xiao family.

Having just returned to the Xiao family, Qinglian, now dressed up as a maid by Xiao's mother, ran over and greeted Xiao Chong with a sweet and affectionate bow.

"Young Master Xiao Chong, someone outside the Xiao residence is looking for you. They say that the batch of rare metals that the Jia Ma royal family sent you has arrived."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

Xiao Chong stepped forward and patted Qinglin's little head.

Xiao Yan glanced at Qing Lin's appearance, then looked at Xiao Chong and said, "Brother, when did you get such a petite maid? You really are a beast."

"And what did you do outside that made people from the Gama royal family personally deliver things to your door?"

The old apothecary looked at Qinglin with a thoughtful expression.

"This girl... is a bit special... Oh well, since Xiao Chong has already brought her back as a maid, I won't bother with her anymore."

Anyway, the old doctor knew that with Xiao Chong's discernment and character, he would definitely not treat him unfairly when the time came.

After ruffling Qinglin's head, Xiao Chong headed to the main hall of the Xiao family. Xiao Yan, who was bored and had nowhere to go, naturally followed.

Inside the main hall, besides the elders of the Xiao family, there was also a person from the royal family.

It was an officer in armor, holding a golden scroll in his hands. On the scroll was a storage ring, which looked like an imperial edict.

However, in this Dou Qi Continent, an imperial edict is not as valuable as a Xuan-level Dou Technique, so just take a look at it casually.

Soon after, the officer gave a standard salute upon seeing Xiao Chong and began reading the imperial edict aloud.

"Xiao Chong of the Xiao family, the royal family of the Gama Empire thanks you for your contribution in repelling the Izumo Empire at Yellowstone Fortress."

"This storage ring contains various rare ores collected by the Gama Empire in conjunction with the Mittel family over this period of time at considerable expense. Please accept it with pleasure."

"Um."

Xiao Chong nodded indifferently, because he felt that the messenger in front of him probably had something else to say.

"Furthermore, given Xiao Chong's outstanding performance at Yellowstone Fortress, the imperial family of our Jiama Empire believes that these material rewards are completely insufficient!"

"Therefore, His Majesty of the Royal Family believes that, in addition to these material rewards, the Royal Family will bestow upon Xiao Chong the most favored child in the Royal Family, Xiao Yue'er."

Upon hearing this, many members of the Xiao family present were taken aback.

Xiao Yue'er... is the royal princess who, in the original novel, competed against Xiao Yan at the alchemist conference of the Jia Ma Empire and then became a supporting character.

However, in the past, the royal family was the ruler of this land, and their voice and the prestige of the royal family were naturally very important.

Therefore, many people in Gama believe that the actions of the Gama royal family are clearly a reward, and how can they be considered bad behavior!

Look at the elders behind the Xiao family. After hearing these words, they didn't feel wronged at all. On the contrary, their faces were full of a sense of honor.

In other places, many people would definitely scoff at this.

What kind of royal family is this? They clearly just want to use this so-called princess to tie down Xiao Chong, a young Dou Zun.

Therefore, the royal family did not dare to say that it was an imperial decree, but only that it was a gift to Xiao Chong.

This royal family is quite the old fox, playing word games, huh!

However, this actually created an opportunity to exploit an information gap.

The royal family of the Gama Empire is quite the old fox.

"And... Princess Xiaoyue is probably only 11 years old now."

"These royals aren't exactly human either..."
