Battle Through the Heavens: I'm Just an Alchemist

Chapter 88 Fulfilling the Promise

Lin Lang briefly recounted what happened next, causing everyone present to gasp in shock.

"So, Xiaolang means to have Xiaolong do this?"

"Yes, brother, you know me. I'm good at taking action, but when it comes to dealing with those kinds of things, I'm completely clueless."

"I see. Then Xiaolong, go ahead and do it, help your third uncle. He's already a top-tier sixth-grade alchemist at nineteen. If he's twenty-nine... that's truly remarkable! Such a person is destined for an extraordinary future. We can't miss this opportunity."

"Yes, Grandpa!"

……

"Hmph... Is this Peace Town? Just one glance is enough to tell that it's the complete opposite of Black Corner Region."

After traversing the Black Corner Region and committing murder and plunder, Xiao Yan arrived outside Peace Town.

"Yes, you can cultivate in peace at Canaan Academy. Even the Soul Hall wouldn't dare to provoke those old monsters there. However, I also can't lend you my power at will; you'll have to rely on yourself here."

"Don't worry, teacher. Among my peers, there are really few I'm afraid of." Xiao Yan puffed out his chest confidently.

"Hehe, that's good. And don't forget to collect the medicinal herbs for refining the Earth Spirit Pill."

"Um!"

Bearing the expectations of his clan and the heavy responsibility of finding his father, Xiao Yan's determination to become stronger was unwavering.

With a leap, Xiao Yan arrived at Peace Town with light steps.

After some persuasion, Xiao Yan successfully regained his status as an outer court student of Canaan Academy.

"Have you heard? A new city is going to be built a hundred miles away from Peace Town."

"So close? Who's so bold as to build a city on the academy's territory?"

"I heard that the city is called Heartless City, and that the captain of the enforcement team went there to help."

"Oh, then there's no problem. So it's Young Master Wuxin..."

After landing from the flying magical beast, Xiao Yan arrived in Canaan City and hurried towards the outer courtyard.

Listening to the conversation of passersby, Xiao Yan suddenly slapped his forehead, almost forgetting that there was a peer he had to look up to.

……

In the blink of an eye, more than half a year had passed. Nangong Wuxin ended his seclusion, a smile on his face, and walked out of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower with light steps.

Upon returning to the attic, they found only Zi Yan there; the others were still in seclusion, cultivating.

"Big brother! You've finished your seclusion?"

Zi Yan, who was pondering how she should present herself to the new students, jumped up excitedly when she saw Nangong Wuxin return.

"Hmm, the seclusion went smoothly and naturally came to an end. But you, why aren't you cultivating? What are you doing here daydreaming?"

Nangong Wuxin caught Ziyan as she jumped down and gently tapped her forehead.

"The new students are coming soon, and I'm wondering how I can make them call me 'Big Sister Ziyan' the moment they see me?"

"Um? I don't really know much about this either, so I can't offer any advice. You'll just have to figure it out yourself."

Nangong Wuxin shook his head; he had no experience with this kind of thing.

From childhood to adulthood, he never needed to pretend.

Upon hearing this, Zi Yan slapped Nangong Wuxin's hand away and walked aside to think.

Seeing Zi Yan's realistic side, Nangong Wuxin smiled slightly.

"Perhaps you could fly there directly. After all, those new students are all at the Dou Shi or Great Dou Shi level. If you fly there, they should be able to understand your strength, Sister Zi Yan."

"Hmm? That makes sense, but wouldn't that be too monotonous?"

Zi Yan transformed into a blur and arrived beside Nangong Wuxin, taking his hand and placing it on her head, waiting expectantly for Nangong Wuxin's answer.

"Hmm... Keeping it simple is good. If we make too much noise, the Grand Elder will probably have a headache again."

What Nangong Wuxin actually meant was that if Ziyan punched through ten buildings, the freshmen would definitely be forced to submit.

However, he would have to help Ziyan resolve the consequences in the end, so he didn't want to cause trouble for himself.

"Alright then, how about I punch the ground? That'll definitely let them feel the immense power of Boss Ziyan!"

Zi Yan's eyes lit up when she came up with a great idea.

"Can you control your strength to demonstrate your power without hurting anyone?"

Nangong Wuxin rolled her eyes. This little girl was always up to no good.

You're going too far; don't end it with one punch, or things will get interesting!

"..."

Zi Yan slapped Nangong Wuxin's hand away again, silently returned to the corner, and continued to think.

Nangong Wuxin shook his head; he was almost used to this girl's pragmatic behavior.

The latest novel is first published here!

After glancing at the items the association had collected over this period, Nangong Wuxin nodded in satisfaction.

Several people have already accumulated enough contribution points to exchange for a grade-five pill, but no one has yet made an offer. It seems they're saving them up to see if they can exchange them for a grade-six pill refining opportunity before graduation.

"The Azure Wood Immortal Vine? Oh well, since it's in my hands now, let it rest in peace."

Nangong Wuxin shook his head. He wasn't Xiao Yan's nanny; he wouldn't deliberately save the things Xiao Yan needed.

Since he had already used up all the Ice-Fire Dragon Whiskers Fruit in the inner courtyard's medicinal herb warehouse, he wouldn't be short of one more Green Wood Immortal Vine.

Suddenly, Nangong Wuxin remembered that he had made a promise to Elder Chen to refine the Imperial Extreme Pill. Now, it was time to fulfill that promise.

"Ziyan, I'm going out for a bit."

Spreading his wings of fighting spirit, Nangong Wuxin flew from the pavilion into the sky.

Upon hearing Nangong Wuxin's voice, Ziyan thought for a moment and then shook her head.

"Sigh, let's just forget about it. Queen Ziyan's power is just too strong. Even a tiny bit of it would hurt the junior students. We can only blame Queen Ziyan for being too powerful!"

In the end, Ziyan felt it was better to keep things simple.

On the other side, Nangong Wuxin, who arrived at Elder Chen's residence, received a warm welcome from Elder Chen.

"Wuxin's here! Come in and sit down, would you like some tea?"

"You don't need to bother, Elder Chen. You've helped me a lot since I entered the inner courtyard. I made a promise to you before, and now I'm able to fulfill it."

!

"Wuxin, are you saying you can refine the Imperial Supreme Pill?"

Elder Chen looked at Nangong Wuxin with some shock. This little guy had only been in the inner courtyard for less than two years, yet his alchemy skills had already caught up with Old Man Huo.

That's way too fast!

Although you are a genius, how long has it been?

"Hehe, Mr. Chen, what do you think this is?"

Nangong Wuxin smiled slightly, opened his palm, and a ball of earthy yellow tornado flames burned fiercely in his hand, emitting a sound like a dragon's roar.

In just a few breaths, the temperature in the room had risen.

However, some flammable items in the room showed no signs of burning, which shows that Nangong Wuxin's control over the Wind Fury Dragon Flame was extremely precise!

"This...this...this is the Wind Fury Dragon Flame, ranked eighteenth on the Strange Flame Ranking!? Good lad, to be able to manipulate the Wind Fury Dragon Flame to this extent, I believe you!"

Elder Chen stared in disbelief at the scene, and finally a surprised smile appeared on his face.
