After chatting, Chen Yang looked at Xiao Ding and Xiao Li.
In the original work, these two brothers were truly good to Xiao Yan; one had his legs poisoned by the Hun Clan and only barely managed to stand up after more than 1,600 chapters, while the other ate a Life-Devouring Pill for revenge, and Xiao Li might have died if not for Elder Yao's amazing skill!
"Xiao Yan, tell me, since your father clearly possesses Wind-attribute Dou Qi, why did he give birth to three of you, one with Wood-attribute, one with Lightning-attribute, and one with Alchemist-attribute?" Chen Yang suddenly asked with a teasing look as he watched the three brothers.
"Huh???" Xiao Yan was stunned upon hearing this. He really hadn't thought about this question in detail.
"Oh right, why didn't any of us three inherit Father's Wind attribute?" Xiao Li scratched his head, completely confused.
"Slap!" Xiao Ding looked at the dumbfounded Xiao Li and smacked him on the neck. "Mother has the Lightning attribute. Wind and Lightning both belong to Wood, and Wood generates Fire, which is why our situation occurred. I told you to read more often, but you didn't, and now you're doubting Mother!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan curiously questioned Elder Yao in his mind.
"Your elder brother is right, that is indeed the reason!" As an Alchemist, Elder Yao studied a bit of everything, so he naturally understood this simple concept.
Xiao Yan nodded lightly, then looked at Chen Yang, only to find Chen Yang smiling at them: "Brother Yang, you clearly knew the reason..."
Seeing Xiao Yan's resentful look, Chen Yang chuckled: "Heh heh... you still need to learn more from your elder brother and your teacher. It's never wrong to master more knowledge!"
Xiao Yan nodded again. Coming from a world without supernatural power, he understood the principle that knowledge changes fate. Now that Chen Yang brought it up again, he, who originally treated power as his golden rule, once again attached importance to knowledge.
"Young Master, three Young Masters, please!"
At this moment, Qing Lin carried the tea into the pavilion and set it down, then obediently stood behind Chen Yang, waiting for his instructions.
Xiao Yan picked up the teacup, glanced at Qing Lin, then looked at Chen Yang, and suddenly said to Qing Lin, "Thank you, Sister-in-Law!"
"Pfft!" Chen Yang had just picked up his teacup and taken a sip, but Xiao Yan's words made him spit it out immediately. "Cough, cough, cough!"
Chen Yang coughed incessantly. Seeing this, Qing Lin quickly reached out her small hand and gently patted Chen Yang's back. While her face was slightly flushed, she also glared fiercely at Xiao Yan.
"Little Yan Zi, it seems your teacher was too light when hitting you..." Chen Yang looked at Xiao Yan with a dangerous glint in his eyes.
"Uh..." Xiao Yan scratched his head. Wasn't this little girl Brother Yang's little wife?
"When dealing with people, you must learn to be tactful. You can't just speak the truth, understand?" Chen Yang took the handkerchief Qing Lin handed him to wipe his mouth, then looked at Xiao Yan and spoke earnestly.
"Yes, yes, yes, Brother Yang, I understand!" Xiao Yan looked thoroughly corrected.
Xiao Ding and Xiao Li on the side watched these two playing off each other, feeling completely helpless!
When Qing Lin heard Chen Yang say this, even the roots of her ears turned red. The little girl stood rooted to the spot, fiddling with the hem of her skirt, so shy she was almost breaking down.
"Qing Lin, go find your Sister Xian'er first!" Chen Yang turned to look at Qing Lin, reached out, and patted her slender arm. The little girl didn't say anything upon hearing this and fled as if escaping.
Watching Qing Lin leave, Xiao Yan couldn't help but exclaim: "I don't envy mandarin ducks or immortals, I just envy Brother Yang every day!"
Seeing this, Chen Yang took a sip of tea and spoke sarcastically: "Oh... you envy me? Then I'll have to have a good talk with your little girlfriend later. I warn you, don't get arrogant just because you're a Five-Star Great Dou Shi now. Your little girlfriend's Cultivation speed is not slow at all. Even if you Break through to Dou King during the Three-Year Agreement, you might not catch up to her!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yan quickly waved his hands: "No, no, no... Brother Yang, that's unfair!"
Xiao Ding and his brother on the side were extremely shocked. The third brother's little girlfriend Chen Yang mentioned must be Xun'er, right?
Xun'er's talent is actually more terrifying than his third brother's?
"Alright, these are the Medicinal Pills I refined for Brother Xiao Yong recently. See if you want your elder brother or second brother to take them back to the Xiao Family!" Chen Yang stopped messing around with Xiao Yan, waved his hand, pulled out a package, placed it on the table, and spoke to Xiao Yan.
"We discussed it last night. Elder Brother can't leave this area, so let Second Brother go back!" Xiao Yan said.
"That works too. Be careful on the road. If you encounter danger, you can go to Blackrock City and find their City Lord or the President of the Alchemist Guild, and tell them my name!" Chen Yang said.
"Xiao Li understands!" Xiao Li nodded.
"Mhm!"
...After keeping the three Xiao Yan to eat, the three of them excused themselves and returned to the Mo Tie Mercenary Group.
Because the three of them stayed with Chen Yang for a long time, returned completely safe, and even left chatting and laughing, the opportunistic forces in Stone Desert City quickly chose to join the Mo Tie Mercenary Group.
For the next month, Xiao Yan was still diligently beaten every day, constantly either having his balls crushed or suffering comminuted fractures all over his body.
When the Bone Chilling Flame struck his body, it was truly a combination of ice and fire!
In one month, coupled with other Medicinal Pills, Xiao Yan steadily Broke through to Six-Star Great Dou Shi. In the original work, Xiao Yan reaching Six-Star Great Dou Shi was something that happened after he arrived at Jia Nan Academy.
On the other side, with the help of the poison pill refined by Chen Yang, Xiao Yi Xian steadily increased her strength, rushing all the way to Seven-Star Great Dou Shi. Coupled with other Body Tempering Medicinal Pills, her Foundation was also quite solid.
Regarding Xiao Yi Xian's path, Chen Yang mainly focused on strengthening her interior in preparation for consuming the Netherworld Poison Flame.
Xiao Yi Xian, as the Calamity Poison Body, could ignore the toxicity of the Netherworld Poison Flame, but it was still a Heavenly Flame, and its Fire attribute was opposite to the Poison attribute. The danger of consuming this Heavenly Flame was greater than it was for Xiao Yan, and even greater than Medusa's evolution.
After all, Medusa was a Sixth-Tier top Demonic Beast, a Peak Dou Huang expert.
"Therefore, I should wait until I reach Dou Zong and my Alchemy Skill reaches Seventh Grade before going to the Izumo Empire. I'll bring Xiao Yan along then..." This was Chen Yang's plan!
On this day, after using a Qi Gathering Powder, Qing Lin successfully condensed her Dou Zhi Qi Vortex and became a Dou Practitioner.
And in Chen Yang's Eye of Delusion Breaking Gold, it was clearly visible that Qing Lin's Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils were already in a ready-to-activate state, just waiting for a powerful snake-type Demonic Beast to appear for her to control and consume. After that, her path would be incredibly smooth!
..."Brother Yang!"
On this day, Chen Yang, his three companions, two beasts, and Xiao Yan gathered at the gate of Stone Desert City.
"A few months ago, Qing Lin discovered an unusual movement in the eastern part of Stone Desert City, which is the final location Elder Hai drew. It should be the location of the Green Lotus Core Flame!"
Chen Yang looked at Xiao Yan and said.
"Really?"
"That's great! Thank you, Sister-in-Law!"
Xiao Yan had long since gotten used to calling her Sister-in-Law.
"I... I..."
Qing Lin shyly hid behind Xiao Yi Xian, her face turning redder.
"Alright, let's go!"
After the Amethyst Winged Lion King grew larger, the four people and one beast quickly approached the target location under Qing Lin's direction!
Upon arriving, Chen Yang could clearly feel the residual energy beneath the yellow sand that was once equal to his own.
"This is the place!"
Seeing this, Chen Yang raised his right hand. A Dragon Claw condensed in mid-air and fiercely grabbed downwards.
"Boom!"
As countless yellow sands were clawed away, a giant hole was exposed.
"Tsk... I'm really starting to look forward to what it's like to become a Dou Huang expert!"
Xiao Yan looked envious. After the Amethyst Winged Lion King shrunk, the four people and two beasts entered the cave and quickly arrived in front of a Sea of Magma.
"Could the Green Lotus Core Flame be down here?"
Xiao Yan muttered.
"Why don't you go down and see for yourself!"
Saying that, Chen Yang kicked Xiao Yan right in the butt.
"Holy crap!"
Xiao Yan couldn't help but shout a local curse, quickly deployed his Green Swallow Wings to hover in the air, and turned his head to look at Chen Yang with a resentful expression.
"With your Fourth-Tier Magical Beast physique, you won't be burned to death in this Sea of Magma. At worst, your teacher can help you!" Chen Yang chuckled.
"True. Then I'll go down and take a look. Brother Yang, you all be careful!"
Saying that, a circle of white flames rose from Xiao Yan's body, and he drilled into the magma.
However, Xiao Yan rushed out like his butt was on fire less than twenty-five seconds after entering.
"Brother Yang, help! There's a Demonic Beast!"
Xiao Yan flew toward them in a flash, and right behind his butt, a Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake was relentlessly pursuing him.
"You're exactly who I was looking for!"
Chen Yang smiled slightly, unfolded his Dou Qi Wings, and vanished from his spot in a flash. The next second, he was already above the head of the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake.
"Vile creature, stop at once!"
Chen Yang shouted sternly. Dou Qi condensed into a fiery red Dragon Claw, which forcefully gripped the Fire Spirit Snake's head.
"Phew... Thank you, Brother Yang. I'm going in now!"
After Xiao Yan finished speaking, he turned around, ready to dive into the Sea of Magma again.
"Let this beast accompany you!"
Saying this, golden light flickered in Chen Yang's eyes. The Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake was instantly controlled by Chen Yang, who then gave it the order to take Xiao Yan to find the Heavenly Flame.
Seeing the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake quickly turn into a Hell Two-Headed Dog, Xiao Yan was full of emotion, thinking Brother Yang was still awesome.
"Kid Chen, those eyes of yours, tsk tsk..." Elder Yao suddenly spoke.
"Nothing surprising, nothing surprising..." Chen Yang chuckled, then let Xiao Yan and the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake depart.
An hour later, a System notification sound suddenly rang out in the mind of Chen Yang, who was standing on the shore playing with Xiao Yi Xian's black hair:
[Ding! Detected that the most precious treasure near Stone Desert City is the Green Lotus Core Fire Lotus Platform. The owner is Xiao Yan. The host has obtained the ten thousand year green lotus platform!]
"Oh, Xiao Yan succeeded..."
