Chapter 62

Xiao Yan walked around the auction house for a long time before quietly slipping into an alley where there were fewer people.

He quickly took off his large black cloak and muttered to himself, "Teacher, you almost exposed me."

"Hehe, what I did was just what you were thinking, right?" The old black ring emitted a teasing laugh from within.

Shaking his head helplessly, Xiao Yan felt a bit guilty towards his father. He had indirectly extorted a sum from his father twice by selling pills. Kicking the cloak into the gutter, he muttered softly, "I’ll find a time to cooperate with the Xiao family in the future, as a way to compensate Father."

Holding the medicinal materials, Xiao Yan stuffed them into his chest and then cautiously darted out of the alley, sprinting all the way back to the Xiao family compound.

Since Xiao Zhan and the others had not returned yet, the family compound seemed somewhat empty. The guards at the gate, seeing the young master who had once again gained a great reputation in the Xiao family, did not dare to stop him. They smiled obsequiously and let him rush in hurriedly.

Rushing back to his room in a hurry, Xiao Yan carefully took out the materials from his chest and gently placed them on the table.

The entire body of the Mo Ye Lotus was withered and yellow, with five leaves as black as ink. This was the Mo Ye Lotus, with the five leaves representing its age, one leaf growing every ten years.

The Snake Saliva Fruit was a green, round fruit, about half the size of a fist. When held to the nose, it emitted a sweet and sour smell. This fruit only grew near the nests of fifth-stage snake-type magical beasts, making it quite rare. Since snakes are yin creatures, this fruit is more inclined to be cold, and it is a commonly used ingredient in alchemy to balance fiery medicinal materials.

The Spirit Gathering Grass looked no different from ordinary grass, except for the faint fluorescence at the tip of the grass stem. The more intense the fluorescence, the more pure energy it contained.

The second-level water-type magic core was entirely a deep blue. Placed on the table, the faint moisture it emitted soaked the tabletop, showing how rich in water energy it was.

Xiao Yan's gaze carefully swept over these materials, and he couldn't help but say impatiently, "Teacher, we have all the materials. Can we start the alchemy now?"

"What's the rush? The materials won't run away. We can't be disturbed during the alchemy process. It's still early, and if someone accidentally interrupts us, it would be a small matter to waste the materials, but what if I get exposed?" The voice from the ring said irritably, "Let's wait until later to start."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan shook his head in frustration, sighed, and reluctantly put the materials carefully into a cabinet in the corner. He then lay down on the bed, waiting for night to fall.

About half an hour after Xiao Yan lay down, the door to his room was kicked open violently.

Xiao Yu walked into the room with her long, shapely legs, her eyes scanning the room before landing on the startled Xiao Yan. She coldly snorted, "Young master, do you need to be invited to eat?"

Startled by the sudden noise, Xiao Yan sat up abruptly from his daze and stared blankly at Xiao Yu, who was standing in the middle of the room with her arms crossed over her ample chest. After a moment, a chill ran down his spine: "Damn, damn, it's a good thing I didn't let the teacher start the alchemy just now. This idiot woman..."

Thinking about the consequences if the alchemy had been interrupted, Xiao Yan swallowed hard, his anger towards Xiao Yu growing.

His lips twitched, and Xiao Yan slowly drew a cold breath. The fear in his heart instantly turned into rage: "Idiot woman, do you know manners? Can't you knock before entering? You idiot woman, idiot woman! Do you have any upbringing?"

Staring dumbfounded at Xiao Yan, who was showing such anger for the first time in front of her, Xiao Yu was also taken aback. But when she heard his insults, her face turned ashen, and she clenched her teeth, striding towards Xiao Yan with her long, shapely legs: "Little brat, what can you do if I kick your door? I'll kick it every day from now on!"

Seeing Xiao Yu charging at him with clenched teeth, Xiao Yan's face also turned ashen. He raised his palm and suddenly clenched it: "Suction Palm!"

A powerful suction force erupted from Xiao Yan's palm, causing Xiao Yu, who had just reached the bedside, to lean forward and be pulled onto the bed by the force.

After advancing to the ninth level of Qi, the suction force of Xiao Yan's Suction Palm seemed to have become much stronger. In the past, it would not have been so easy to pull a person's weight.

Xiao Yan was slightly surprised by the increased suction force, but this surprise was quickly replaced by anger. He flipped his body, pinning Xiao Yu's long, shapely legs and sitting heavily on her smooth, jade-like abdomen. Leaning down, he quickly pinned her hands with his own.

Being pinned in such an embarrassing position by Xiao Yan again, Xiao Yu's head spun for a moment. After a while, her face flushed with an alluring red, and she struggled fiercely, gritting her teeth and cursing, "Little brat, get off!"

Holding Xiao Yu's hands tightly, Xiao Yan was also breathing heavily from her struggles. After a moment of stalemate, he suddenly moved, flipping her over by pulling her hands.

As she was flipped over, Xiao Yu's back and her firm, shapely buttocks, along with her long, shapely legs, formed an extremely alluring curve.

Without the leisure to admire the perfect curve, Xiao Yan gritted his teeth, raised his hand, and without hesitation, slapped her firm buttocks.

"Slap!"

A crisp sound, tinged with a hint of ambiguity, echoed slowly in the room.

"Damn, young master won't let you enter without knocking!"
