Chapter 81 Xun'er: Is the Gap Between Him and Me so Big?

Jia Ma Imperial Capital.

These days, Jia Ma Imperial Capital is very lively. The Alchemist Conference, which is held every few years, has attracted countless spectators.

This confrontation between alchemists really attracted everyone's attention.

However, the final result of the Alchemist Conference made many people in Jia Ma Empire dissatisfied and even very angry.

Because the first place winner of the conference was actually an alchemist from the Izumo Empire.

Such a result made the people of the Alchemist Guild of Jia Ma Empire feel extremely embarrassed, and the morale of the empire was greatly frustrated.

Because Jia Ma Empire and Izumo Empire have always been hostile countries, there have been constant wars between the two countries, and frictions often occur.

At present, in the Alchemist Conference held in the imperial capital of Jia Ma Empire, the first place was actually taken away by the enemy country. How ridiculous.

At night after the conference, the lights in the room of an inn in the imperial capital were turned on, but there was no sound for a long time.

At this time, Xiao Yan stayed in the room alone, frowning and looking a little depressed.

"There are always people who are better than you, and there are always better people who are better than you... A girl younger than me actually has such a talent for alchemy..."

Xiao Yan sighed in his heart. He also participated in this conference, but he only won the third place. The second place was Princess Yaoyue.

Xiao Yan did not react much to losing to the alchemist of the Chuyun Empire. After all, the guy's real age was already very old.

But Princess Yaoyue's strength made Xiao Yan doubt his alchemy talent that he had always been proud of.

"Knock knock!"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the room. Xiao Yan cleared his throat, and the frustrated expression on his face was hidden. He said: "Come in."

A delicate hand slowly opened the door, and a familiar figure walked in.

Seeing the familiar and cute face, Xiao Yan felt relieved and smiled.

It turned out that the person was Xun'er.

"Brother Xiao Yan, how are your grades today?"

Xun'er came over, sat down beside Xiao Yan, and asked with a smile.

"Third!"

"The alchemist who hid his identity in the Chuyun Empire is indeed powerful, but I didn't expect that the little girl trained by the Jiama royal family actually has such powerful alchemy skills. Could it be that Gu Fei's casual guidance is really so powerful?"

Xiao Yan touched his nose and said a little depressed.

When he came to the imperial capital, he heard that Princess Yaoyue had received guidance from an alchemist named Gu Fei, but he didn't take it seriously at the time.

After all, he had only heard of the name Gu Fei not long ago, and he was not a famous senior.

But today, Princess Yaoyue's alchemy skills far exceeded his expectations.

If only the alchemist from the Chuyun Empire defeated him, it would be understandable, but he has been practicing with Yao Lao for so long, how could he be inferior to Princess Yaoyue, or Gu Fei behind Princess Yaoyue?

At this time, Xiao Yan did not know the specific identity of Gu Fei.

He only heard that Gu Fei was a very talented young man who appeared in the imperial capital a few months ago. He had a sixth-level flying monster as a mount, which caused quite a stir.

He didn't know that Gu Fei's ability to refine medicine was so strong.

"Gu Fei?"

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xun'er's eyes moved and her breathing stagnated.

She was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said softly: "If it was Gu Fei who personally guided it, it would not be surprising!"

Xun'er knew Gu Fei's ability to refine medicine. At that time in the ancient world, he was already a seventh-grade alchemist. In terms of attainments and talents in alchemy, Gu Fei could be among the best in the entire ancient world.

Not to mention just in a mere Jia Ma Empire?

"Do you know him?"

Xiao Yan couldn't help but ask in confusion after hearing the tone in Xun'er's words.

"I know him... but I'm not very familiar with him!"

Hearing Xiao Yan's question, Xun'er's body stiffened, and then she chose to fool around without making a sound.

Subconsciously, she didn't want Xiao Yan to know that she had been married once.

But seeing the doubt in Xiao Yan's eyes, Xun'er was not panicked, but thought of a way to change the subject.

She took something out of the ring and spread her palm in front of Xiao Yan.

A spiritual medicine with a weak spiritual fluctuation, quietly blooming a faint blue flower, with a faint luster on the petals.

This is another spiritual medicine that Xun'er found that can restore soul power after she learned that the Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva had been taken away by Gu Fei.

Xiao Yan's attention was finally diverted, and his eyes fell on this spiritual medicine.

Xun'er smiled sweetly and said, "Brother Xiao Yan, this is a spiritual medicine that can restore soul power."

Xiao Yan's eyes were shocked.

Xun'er put it directly in his hand, his eyes moved, and he was very grateful: "Xun'er, thank you!"

"Brother Xiao Yan, Xun'er is enough as long as she can help you!"

Xiao Yan put away the elixir, and the two smiled at each other, and emotions flowed quietly in their eyes.

Suddenly, there was a fluctuation in the space in the room.

Xun'er's eyes condensed.

"Nanhai Elder!"

She turned her head quickly and saw a familiar old face.

Xun'er stood up nervously and tried to block Xiao Yan behind her.

She knew that most of the elders of the ancient clan disliked Xiao Yan. Could it be that he suddenly came here to...

"..."

At this time, Xiao Yan behind Xun'er was at a loss.

Because the old man who suddenly appeared put too much pressure on him. It felt like if the other party wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as crushing an ant.

"Xun'er, come back with me!"

The elder of the ancient clan glanced at Xiao Yan with his old eyes, then fell on Xun'er and said meaningfully.

"I won't go back!"

Hearing that she was being persuaded to go back again, Xun'er frowned and refused without hesitation.

She had just met Xiao Yan not long ago, so of course she was reluctant to part so soon.

Hearing this, the elder of the ancient clan frowned and glanced at Xiao Yan behind her.

"Xun'er, you left the Ancient Clan and your cultivation level has not improved at all. Do you know that Gu Fei has already broken through to the Dou Zun realm less than a year after leaving the Ancient Clan! Your performance really disappointed the clan leader and the elders in the clan. If it weren't for your slow progress in cultivation level, we wouldn't have resorted to such a desperate measure to take you back!"

The elder sighed in a disappointed tone.

"Gu Fei has broken through to the Dou Zun realm?"

Hearing the elder's words, Xun'er was stunned. It took her a long time to react, and her face was full of surprise.

Obviously, Gu Fei's cultivation level progressed so fast that it was far beyond her expectations.

"Has the gap between me and him become so big without her realizing it?"

Xun'er lowered her eyes, and her mind unconsciously recalled some things that happened in the Ancient Realm. Her face was inadvertently bitter, her pearly teeth bit her rosy lower lip, and her fingertips pinched her palm unconsciously.

However, she quickly recovered, her eyes regained calmness, and she wanted to plead for mercy when she thought of her brother Xiao Yan behind her.

"Elder Nanhai, Xun'er is not lazy... She will definitely work hard to cultivate in the future. Can you give me some more time?"

She pleaded with her eyes and frowned.

"Is Gu Fei a Dou Zun? A Dou Zun who is stronger than a Dou Zong?"

On the side, Xiao Yan was also shocked when he heard the conversation between Xun'er and Gu Nanhai.

In the Jiama Empire, it was difficult to see Dou Huang or even Dou Wang.

For him now, the Dou Zun realm was like a legend that was out of reach.
