Battle Through the Heavens: Emperor's Son Xiao Yan

Chapter 115 What level are you in, comparing your alchemy skills with me?

Upon hearing this, the entire banquet fell silent, followed by a chorus of rapid breaths. (New 69 Bookstore →)

"Mr. Xiao Yan, is what you said true?" Before Yun Potian could speak, Yun Shan asked first.

If Yun Potian could be fully resurrected, he would be a true Dou Zun powerhouse. This one Dou Zun powerhouse alone would be enough to make the Yunlan Sect once again rank among the top forces in the Northwest Continent.

"There are still some difficulties, but I am confident that I can truly revive Lao Yun within three years at most," Xiao Yan said after a moment of contemplation.

In three years, he must have already obtained the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame and the Fallen Heart Flame, and might even have obtained several other kinds of strange flames.

As he devours the strange flames, his strength will inevitably increase even faster. Perhaps he will have become a Dou Zun in three years.

According to the records of the Burning Technique, possessing more than three different kinds of strange fire will grant one various incredible and magical abilities, such as helping people to revive.

In fact, even disregarding his own strength, the Xiao clan possessed various methods to help people revive, but the soul and body could not be perfectly integrated.

Perhaps the Yin-Yang Evil Saint is being resurrected at this moment with the help of the Xiao Clan Chief.

"If my young friend Xiao Yan can help me revive my physical body, then I will never be able to repay this great kindness. My life, Yun Potian's life, is now yours." Yun Potian floated on his memorial tablet and bowed to Xiao Yan with clasped hands.

Seeing this, many elders of the Yunlan Sect stood up and bowed to Xiao Yan.

If Xiao Yan could completely revive Yun Potian, then all the members of the Yunlan Sect would probably ascend to immortality along with him.

The powerful backer behind him suddenly changed from a Dou Huang to a Dou Zun. How exhilarating that must have been!

Xiao Yan didn't speak, but turned his head to look at Yun Yun and her apprentice beside him.

Yun Yun was about to express her gratitude when Xiao Yan stopped her.

"Let's get more practical," Xiao Yan's voice quietly reached Yun Yun's ears.

"Something more practical," Yun Yun said somewhat awkwardly.

"Shouldn't Sect Leader Yun be throwing herself into his arms and offering herself to him right now?"

"Mr. Xiao Yan, I have no way to repay your kindness, but..."

Before Yun Yun could finish speaking, Xiao Yan suddenly released her.

"Keep the music playing, keep the dancing going." Xiao Yan laughed heartily, and the Yunlan Sect once again entered a state of peace and prosperity.

However, the atmosphere in the room was clearly much more enthusiastic. Those who were able to participate in this banquet were all elders and elite disciples of the Yunlan Sect. They knew very well that their future would be infinitely bright.

The only ones who were frustrated were Guhe and his apprentice.

"Teacher, I can't take it anymore." Liu Ling gritted her teeth as she looked at Xiao Yan, who was surrounded by beautiful women.

Guhe didn't speak, he just sat there quietly.

However, after a moment, when Xiao Yan grasped Yun Yun's jade-like hand, he finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"Mr. Xiao Yan, don't you think you've gone a bit too far?" Gu He's calm voice carried suppressed anger. His voice drifted across the square, silencing the once bustling area.

"Gu He, Mr. Xiao Yan is a great benefactor of our Yunlan Sect. I hope you will watch your words." A cold glint flashed in Yun Shan's eyes.

Gu He was a master alchemist whom he had personally cultivated. Back then, he saw that Gu He had a very good talent for alchemy, so he recruited him into the Yunlan Sect.

With the resources and training provided by the Yunlan Sect, Gu He also became the chief alchemist of the Jia Ma Empire, and has made many contributions to the Yunlan Sect over the years.

In the past, Yunshan had always treated Guhe very well, but things are different now. Even if he is presumptuous, it depends on who he is presumptuous towards.

If Yunshan were to displease Xiao Yan, he wouldn't consider past favors.

Hearing Yunshan's reprimand, Guhe's expression changed slightly, but when he saw Yunyun being teased by Xiao Yan, his years of self-cultivation caused his blood to boil uncontrollably.

"Mr. Xiao Yan, I acknowledge that you are a great benefactor of the Yunlan Sect, but please show some respect to Sect Master Yun." Gu He ignored Yun Shan's rebuke and stared intently at Xiao Yan.

"Who are you?" Xiao Yan stared blankly at the middle-aged man in front of him. How dare this man speak to him like that?

"My name is Gu He, the chief alchemist of the Yunlan Sect. I think that a gentleman like Mr. Xiao Yan doesn't need to pester Sect Master Yun like this."

Gu He looked at Xiao Yan with some nervousness, but seeing his beloved being teased like this, he was filled with anger.

Now, his status as a sixth-grade alchemist is the only thing he can boast about, although it seems to mean nothing in front of this young man.

"Oh, you're Gu He?" Xiao Yan glanced at Gu He.

"So he's Yun Yun's simp."

He suddenly sneered and said indifferently, "This young master is no gentleman. Gu He, is that right? Let me tell you, I've taken a liking to this Sect Master Yun. Heh heh, you disagree?"

"You!" Guhe was speechless with anger.

"If you're a man, don't pressure a woman like this."

"What I do is none of your business, Mr. Guhe. I advise you to sit down obediently." Xiao Yan smiled indifferently.

"A mere sixth-grade alchemist, Mr. Xiao Yan, may be young and promising, but isn't he looking down on us alchemists far too much?"

Gu He's face was flushed. He knew perfectly well that this was extremely irrational, but he still managed to muster his last bit of stubbornness.

Given his past status, there weren't many women in the Jia Ma Empire who could refuse him. However, he could never forget the young woman he met when he first joined the Yunlan Sect.

Over the years, that beautiful figure has almost become an obsession in his heart.

"Guhe, that's enough!" Yunshan stood up, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes. If Guhe ruined his grand plan, he would not care about their past relationship at all.

"Is being a sixth-rank alchemist something? You're already this old and you're still just a sixth-rank alchemist. I've been a seventh-rank alchemist for a long time."

Xiao Yan said calmly.

These words silenced the room once again.

Countless people looked at Xiao Yan as if he were a monster. It was no secret that Xiao Yan was a Dou Huang; everyone with a certain status in the capital knew about it.

But he was actually a seventh-grade alchemist?

A 16-year-old seventh-grade alchemist? How is that possible?

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

Many people couldn't help but slap themselves hard to wake up, but after slapping themselves several times, they found that they weren't dreaming at all.

However, everything before them was too surreal. They had just accepted the fact that a sixteen-year-old boy had become a Dou Huang, only to discover that the boy in front of them was also a seventh-grade alchemist.

"Impossible, impossible! I don't believe it!" Guhe even lost his mind.

"How could someone your age be a seventh-grade alchemist! You must be lying."

Reason told Gu He that there was no need for Xiao Yan to lie to himself, but how could one reason with a sixteen-year-old seventh-grade alchemist?

"Do you dare to compete with me in alchemy?!" Gu He roared as if grasping at a last straw.

"What level are you to compare your alchemy skills with this young master!" Xiao Yan was about to speak, but he paused when he inadvertently saw the expressions of Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran.

"It seems you're determined to give this young master a chance to show off in front of everyone."

Xiao Yan shook his head, feigning helplessness.

"Since you're so eager to lose, then this young master will grant your wish!"

I've spent half my life writing, only regretting that I never met a leader.

I am deeply grateful to the great sage Li Xiao for bestowing upon me the title of Alliance Leader. I respectfully bow to him, my godfather!

That's two updates for today. I'm stockpiling chapters. I'll have five updates tomorrow, and an extra one for my godfather!
