Chapter 25: Vision
"Tomorrow you go and prepare three purple orchids, two marrow cleansing flowers, and a first-level wood magic core. The older the purple orchid, the better. The rest is up to you. Leave the rest to me!"
Yao Lao said without caring about Xiao Yan's slightly dazed expression.
"Old man, do you think I'm a prince of the empire? How can I have the money to buy these things? That first-level wood magic core alone is enough to bankrupt me!"
Xiao Yan stared at Yao Lao and cursed angrily.
"That's none of my business. It's your business what to do. Also, remember to call me teacher, don't be disrespectful!" Yao Lao said calmly.
Xiao Yan was a little depressed when he heard this. What a crappy teacher. Others give exercises, fighting skills, and resources when they become his disciples. Why is it different for him? He also has to prepare materials by himself.
His eyes rolled around, and a cunning look appeared on Xiao Yan's face.
"Hehe... Teacher, you see I am your disciple now, don't teachers have any way to show their respect... For example, a gift for meeting or something?"
Yao Lao rolled his eyes and said, "Get lost, I haven't even received your gift for becoming a disciple yet! You are eyeing me!"
Seeing that this was a dead end, Xiao Yan turned to Xiao Bai and looked at him eagerly.
"Brother Bai...!"
Xiao Bai gave him a stern look and said,
"Get lost, I have no money, I never use money, I am not interested in money!"
Xiao Yan was choked by these words and was speechless.
Sure enough, you are worthy of being the King of Forcing Brother Bai! You are always full of style.
Then he looked at Xiao Xun'er again, with a little struggle in his eyes. From childhood to adulthood, he had never borrowed money from a girl, but thinking that this was for cultivation, he had to grit his teeth and be shameless.
"Hehe, sister-in-law, can you lend me some money?"
Seeing his shameless look, Xiao Bai really wanted to punch him to death.
Xiao Xun'er smiled when she was called sister-in-law. She looked at Xiao Bai and saw him nod slightly before she said,
"How much do you want?"
Xiao Yan said carefully, "One thousand gold coins!"
Xiao Xun'er didn't say much after hearing this. With a wave of her hand, a small pile of gold coins appeared on the stone table. Xiao Yan's
eyes lit up after seeing this and he quickly said,
"Thank you sister-in-law, thank you brother Bai, hehe...!"
Yao Lao held his forehead with one hand. He was too ashamed to look at his apprentice's embarrassing appearance. For a moment, he was a little doubtful whether he had been too hasty to accept him as his apprentice.
He was the dignified Yao Zun, the number one alchemist in Zhongzhou, but he actually received such a shameless apprentice. He sighed helplessly in his heart and kept comforting himself.
Forget it, this is the child he has taken a fancy to. Now he can only accept it with a pinch of his nose.
Xiao Bai saw that his goal today was achieved, so he didn't stay any longer. He knew that Yao Lao must have something to say to Xiao Yan, so he prepared to go back.
Standing up, he smiled at Yao Lao and said,
"Senior, if you have anything to do, please arrange it as soon as possible. We will set off in three months!"
Xun'er saw Xiao Bai's actions, and also stood up and walked to his side, holding his arm.
Yao Lao heard this and nodded, "Don't worry! Xiao Bai, I will not break my promise to you."
Xiao Bai smiled and said, "Then we will leave first!"
"Brother Bai!"
Xiao Yan couldn't help but call him when he saw Xiao Bai was about to leave. He didn't feel uncomfortable when there were many people around just now, but now he was a little uncomfortable to be alone with a strange teacher he just met!
Xiao Bai pretended not to hear and left with Xun'er directly.
He couldn't help but think that if Xiao Yan continued like this, he would be useless. He was almost like his father.
Along the way, Xiao Xun'er looked at Xiao Bai with a sharp eye. She felt that she had a lot of questions to ask him, but she didn't know where to start.
Today, she saw Xiao Bai's unknown side. He had means, strategies, humor, self-confidence and freedom. Even though he was just a Dou Shi, he could still get along with the former Dou Zun.
An eighth-grade alchemist had a very high status even in her family, and he was not a cabbage.
Those people in her family who were the same age as Xiao Bai had to respect the eighth-grade alchemist.
Even if the eighth-grade alchemist was just a residual soul, not just any Dou Shi could be as free and easy as Xiao Bai today.
At least she knew that even if the younger generation in the family were placed in Xiao Bai's position in the Dou Shi realm, they would not be able to do what Xiao Bai did.
"Little girl, why are you looking at me like this? Am I handsome again today?"
Xiao Bai saw Xun'er staring at him all the way, and joked with a smile.
"Yes! Brother Xiao Bai is super handsome today, Xun'er likes him so much!" Seeing Xiao Bai teasing her, Xiao Xun'er also took this opportunity to speak out her thoughts.
"Haha... my Xun'er has good taste!"
Xiao Bai couldn't help laughing when he saw the little girl cooperating with him, and then pretended to be complacent:
"But Xun'er's taste is not as good as Brother Xiao Bai's!"
Hearing this, Xiao Xun'er blinked her smart eyes and smiled: "Then Brother Xiao Bai, tell me, how is Xun'er's taste not as good as yours?"
Xiao Bai smiled, stopped, and looked at her seriously.
"Because Xun'er's taste only found Xiao Bai, while Xiao Bai's taste found a girl as good as Xun'er, do you think Xiao Bai's taste is better?"
Xiao Xun'er was a little stunned when she heard this ordinary sentence. She felt a little sweet and a little sour in her heart. She wanted to laugh but also wanted to cry.
She threw herself into Xiao Bai's arms, rested her head on his shoulder, and retorted with a little sobbing:
"No, it's obviously Xun'er who has better taste!"
Xiao Bai didn't expect the little girl to react so much. He stretched out his hand to hug her slender waist and touched the little head on his shoulder lovingly.
"Okay! We both have good taste, is that okay?"
Xiao Xun'er nodded on Xiao Bai's shoulder.
"Yeah!"
Xiao Bai laughed dumbly. This little girl, she wants to fight for such things!
Xiao Xun'er held him for a long time before letting go, her eyes red.
Xiao Bai didn't say anything when he saw her. He took her jade hand and slowly walked down the mountain.
After returning to the courtyard, Xiao Xun'er gradually came out of her emotions. She took Xiao Bai to sit down at the table and asked softly:
"Brother Xiao Bai, are you going to learn alchemy?"
She never explored Xiao Bai's affairs, but today he used a mature Heavenly Flame to exchange for the inheritance of an eighth-grade alchemist, which made her a little curious.
Heavenly Flame is not a common thing, even among the various imperial clans.
"Yeah! I plan to try it."
Although his way of trying was a bit unrealistic, it was unknown whether thunder magic had been used to refine medicine on the Dou Qi Continent before.
But Xiao Bai trusted Xun'er. There were some things he couldn't tell her, but it was okay to tell her about the medicine refining.
"But you are...?" Xun'er was a little hesitant to speak.
Xiao Bai knew what she was going to say. After thinking for a while, he stretched out his two palms. A green lightning appeared on one of them, and a Wood Thunder aura emanated from it.
The other hand was wrapped in red lightning, and a burning feeling came over him.
Moreover, both types of lightning had a violent aura, and the red lightning was the most violent.
