Inner Academy, Elder Pavilion.
Su Qian was reviewing official documents.
As the connection between the Black-Corner Region and Jia Nan Academy deepened, exchanges between the two sides became more frequent.
Now, many excellent students from the academy would go to major cities in the Black-Corner Region for experience.
Among them, Feng City was the most popular.
Students like Lin Xiuyuan, Lin Yan, and Han Yue, who were on the Strong Ranking, all had experience traveling in Feng City.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
At this time, someone knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Su Qian didn't even lift his head, continuing to focus on the official business in front of him.
"First Elder, a student saw Elder Han Feng on the street just now. I confirmed it, it should be true."
A mentor came to report.
"Elder Han Feng?"
Su Qian paused his writing and looked up at the comer.
"He's back?"
"Yes, and Elder Han Feng was accompanied by a man with long white hair."
"Man with long white hair..."
Su Qian frowned, unable to guess who this person was.
"Okay, I know."
Su Qian said.
Han Feng rarely returned to Jia Nan Academy, and now he was almost a rare character.
Being seen by students, they couldn't wait to report.
Su Qian shook his head.
Nowadays, the only one who could appear in the Inner Academy so unknowingly was him.
Come and go as he pleases.
He is quite dashing.
Su Qian quickly completed the end of the official document, then put down the pen and walked out the door.

After Xiao Yu sat down, Yao Chen asked her about Xiao Yan.
Since Xiao Yu had been with Xiao Yan during this time, she was the one who knew Xiao Yan's actions best.
Yao Chen asked questions, and Xiao Yu dared not refuse to answer. She carefully considered her words, trying to use non-repetitive good words to praise Xiao Yan.
"Why didn't I know that kid has so many advantages now?"
Listening to Xiao Yu's endless praises, Yao Chen laughed.
Xiao Yu's face instantly turned red, realizing that she might have praised too much.
Since the person in front of her was Xiao Yan's teacher, he must have taught Cousin Xiao Yan before.
"Xiao Yan has grown a lot now."
Xiao Yu said with a blushing face.
"Xiao Yu is right. During this time, the situation reflected in the puppets shows that Little Junior Brother is indeed very hardworking."
Han Feng said.
"What surprised me is his efficiency in practicing flame Dou Skills. He actually reached the stage of mastery so quickly."
The former Xiao Yan also had good comprehension, but the speed of improvement and comprehension displayed was far less impressive than now.
Could it be that since Gu Xun'er left, this kid's heart has settled down?
"Alright, having chatted for so long, thank you for your hard work."
Yao Chen took out a treasure box from his storage ring and handed it to Xiao Yu.
"This... no need, no need."
Xiao Yu waved her hands repeatedly, declining politely.
Receiving a gift just for answering a few questions made Xiao Yu feel uneasy.
"A meeting gift for you, take it."
Yao Chen laughed.
Han Feng nodded to Xiao Yu, and the girl then accepted it with a blushing face.
"Gift from an elder, dare not refuse. Xiao Yu thanks Senior Yao."
"Hahahaha!"
Yao Chen suddenly laughed.
"Little girl, you have good talent. Work hard and strive to keep up with your little cousin, don't fall too far behind."
Xiao Yu's face, which had just eased, quickly warmed up again, flushing red.
How could she not hear the teasing meaning in the old man's words?
"Senior, you misunderstood!"
Xiao Yu explained hurriedly.
Yao Chen nodded, "It's okay, it's okay, just joking with you."
Han Feng stood up at this time.
"Teacher, we should go back. Look, it's getting late, don't disturb Little Junior Brother and the others."
"Oh right, right, right!"
Yao Chen clapped his hands and walked towards the door with a smile.
Seeing this, Xiao Yu stamped her foot anxiously.
Why is Elder Han like this too!
Making it sound like there is something shady between her and her cousin.
After sending the two to the gate, Xiao Yu returned slowly.
She breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the chair, the lady-like aura she put on before slowly dissipating.
Sending away the seniors, now was the daily life state of her and Xiao Yan.
One practicing hard in the cultivation room, and one freely doing things outside.
Xiao Yu opened the meeting gift Yao Chen just gave her.
"Sure enough, it's a pill!"
Xiao Yu looked happy, looking at the clear jade pill emitting rich energy in the treasure box.
The appearance of this pill is so beautiful!
Couldn't bear to eat it at first sight.
"Full of pill energy, exquisite pill patterns, could this be a fifth-grade pill!"
Xiao Yu guessed in her heart.
Following Xiao Yan for so long, although she still couldn't refine pills, her skill in evaluating pills had grown a lot.
Boom.
Inside the house, the sound of the cultivation room door opening and closing came.
Xiao Yan walked out of the cultivation room and came to the hall.
"Cousin, have Teacher and Senior Brother left?"
Seeing Xiao Yu, Xiao Yan was not surprised, but accustomed to it.
"Mm, they said let you cultivate with peace of mind, and will notify us to set off in a few days."
"By the way, I also requested Elder Han to let the Xiao family disciples in the Outer Academy return to the Jia Ma Empire together."
Xiao Yu said.
"This opportunity is rare, just right to watch your Three-Year Agreement together."
Xiao Yan smiled helplessly.
"Alright, but with so many of you, I'm starting to get a little nervous."
If he went to the Misty Cloud Sect alone, although it would be lonely and brave, there would be no worries behind him.
Now with so many people going to the Misty Cloud Sect together, Xiao Yan always felt that he was carrying more things on his shoulders.
Is this everyone's expectation and trust?
Xiao Yan suddenly understood somewhat the pressure Nalan Yanran had to bear this time.
Unlike being rejected by clansmen three years ago, this time Nalan Yanran shouldered the glory of the sect.
This battle between the two concerned not only the two of them but also the forces behind them.
If she lost, the blow would probably be greater than his back then.
Xiao Yan smiled gently.
Pitying the opponent is not his style.
Only going all out is the best respect for the opponent.
He believed that proud as Nalan Yanran was, she would definitely understand him too.
"Cousin, look at what pill this is?"
Xiao Yu ran to Xiao Yan at this time and opened the gift Yao Chen gave her.
"This is... Ice Muscle Jade Bone Pill!"
Xiao Yan said in surprise.
"This is a peak fifth-grade pill... Did Senior Brother and Teacher give it to you?"
Hearing the name of this pill, Xiao Yu understood its general effect.
Ice muscle and jade bone, for women, this is simply more sought-after than breakthrough pills.
The thing given by Xiao Yan's teacher is indeed very good!
"It was given to me by Senior Yao."
Xiao Yu said.
"It's Teacher..."
Xiao Yan nodded.
Peak fifth-grade pills, even Xiao Yan himself rarely ate them.
On one hand, of course, it was due to cultivation reasons, unable to take higher-level pills.
On the other hand, there was no need for so many strange pills at present. Eating them all might not be a good thing.
So Xiao Yan would not take pills casually. He ate more of what he refined himself.
"Then I'll go take it now!"
Xiao Yu ran excitedly to the cultivation room.
"Be careful, the medicinal power of a fifth-grade pill is amazing, don't make mistakes when refining!"
Xiao Yan reminded from behind.
"Got it!"
Xiao Yu waved her hand, walked into the cultivation room, and couldn't wait to experience the effect of the Ice Muscle Jade Bone Pill.
Outside the room, Xiao Yan stroked his chin.
"Ice Muscle Jade Bone Pill, I can learn this from Teacher. After refining it, I can give it to Cousin Xun'er in the future."
To this day, even though the young man had grown a lot, he still hadn't forgotten the girl who made his heart beat in his youth.
——————————
Han Feng and Yao Chen returned to the residence and suddenly found someone waiting in the stone pavilion outside the courtyard.
"First Elder Su Qian?"
Han Feng shouted when he saw the old man sitting under the pavilion.
"Why are you here?"
"Waiting to see you, Elder Han. It's rare for you to come back. The students must be extremely excited now."
Su Qian laughed.
"I wonder who this is..."
He looked at the white-haired man beside Han Feng, a flash of amazement in his eyes.
"This is my teacher, Yao Chen."
"Teacher, this is First Elder Su Qian, currently responsible for the actual management of the Jia Nan Academy Inner Academy."
Hearing Han Feng's introduction, Yao Chen greeted Su Qian with a smile.
It seems that old guy Mang Tianchi is also a hands-off shopkeeper, quite like himself.
After establishing the Falling Star Pavilion back then, he handed over many things to Feng Xian.
"So it's Venerate Yao in person! Disrespect, disrespect!"
Hearing Yao Chen's name, Su Qian immediately bowed deeply.
The person in front of him was a legendary figure with the reputation of the number one alchemist on the continent.
Su Qian grew up so big, it was indeed the first time he saw Yao Chen himself.
Previously, he had only heard of his legends.
"First Elder Su Qian, I wonder what you want from me?"
Han Feng asked.
"Nothing, just came to see you, see how many days you can stay in the school. However, I didn't expect an unexpected joy!"
Su Qian looked at Yao Chen with eyes full of respect.
If Han Feng was a rising star, younger than him but stronger in cultivation.
Then Yao Chen was a complete senior.
"Not staying for many days, leaving soon. Coming back this time is mainly to witness the duel appointment between Little Junior Brother and the Young Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect."
"Xiao Yan, right?"
Su Qian nodded.
"That kid is now considered a prominent figure in the Inner Academy."
"Alright, since that's the case, I won't disturb you much. Elder Han, if you have time in the future, come back and visit more. Many graduates of our Jia Nan Academy are working in your Feng City."
These graduates chose to join Feng City because of Han Feng's name.
Although Feng City was built very well now, compared with the prosperous regions of the Central Plains, there were definitely shortcomings.
Students from Jia Nan Academy were more than qualified to develop in the Central Plains.
If not for admiration, joining Feng City wouldn't be the first choice.
Bidding farewell to Su Qian, Han Feng and Yao Chen walked into the courtyard and began their respective cultivation.
Yao Chen continued to consolidate his Half-Saint cultivation and explore the profound meaning of the Saint Realm.
Han Feng continued to refine the Heavenly Phoenix Armor while improving his Dou Qi cultivation bit by bit.
Whether refining pills or weapons, both had certain effects on improving cultivation and polishing Dou Qi.
A speechless night.
Both master and disciple stayed up all night.
However, cultivators get more energetic the more they stay up late.
Especially those cultivating the "Soul Mantra," no need to worry.
"Teacher, want to go to Feng City with me to have a look?"
"Sure. Listening to that First Elder Su Qian yesterday, Feng City seems to have been built very well by you?"
Han Feng sweated slightly.
"Actually, I'm also a hands-off shopkeeper. Maybe it's because there are many talents in the Black-Corner Region."
