"All you need to know is that this immortal herb is called 'Qiluo Tulip,' a rare and precious herb. I obtained it by chance. If you have other opportunities in the future, you can also tell the people of your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. As long as the immortal herb is old enough, everyone can break through the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda."
Seeing Ning Rongrong's puzzled expression, Xiao Yan explained.
Ning Rongrong nodded, remembering everything Xiao Yan had said, and then obediently sat down on the stool next to her.
"The process of absorbing the immortal herb may be somewhat painful, but since you were born into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, you should have consumed a lot of rare and precious herbs since childhood. I imagine the effects of this Qiluo Tulip won't be too overpowering. I hope you can absorb it all. Of course, as I said, breakthroughs depend on opportunity. Whether you succeed or not depends on yourself."
Xiao Yan was also worried that Ning Rongrong might not succeed after absorbing the essence, so he took precautions in advance, saying that at worst he could just cancel the deal with Ning Fengzhi.
Ning Rongrong accepted the immortal herb from Xiao Yan, but her expression became hesitant again, and she was reluctant to begin.
"Alright, I'll go out and protect you. Just call me if you have any problems." Xiao Yan understood and walked towards the door without hesitation.
"Xiao Yan, don't come in if you don't hear from me later," Ning Rongrong said, blushing.
Xiao Yan didn't turn around, but made an OK gesture with his hand.
In fact, Xiao Yan only thought Ning Rongrong was shy, but he didn't understand girls' thoughts at all.
It's likely that Xiao Yan felt the same way. After consuming the two immortal herbs, he jumped into the hot pot to fuse them together. Throughout the process, he only felt that his veins and bones were being cleansed, regardless of the filth and potential toxins that were expelled from his body.
But Ning Rongrong had been taking the immortal herb since she was a child, so she naturally understood this principle. Moreover, the more potent the herb, the stronger its effects on tendon and marrow cleansing. What kind of concept is it that an immortal herb can cause a qualitative change in one's martial soul?
Thinking of this, she naturally became a little hesitant, thinking of taking a shower in Xiao Yan's dormitory.
Xiao Yan opened the dormitory door, but did not see the Rolling Ball Beast at the door. He frowned. How come this little guy has also learned to slack off?
He looked around, but couldn't see where his Digimon was.
With a thought, a pinkish-white ball of flesh appeared out of thin air in his arms as digital lights flashed.
"Hey, Xiao Yan, what are you doing? I've met a pretty lady!" The Rolling Beast pouted, clearly somewhat dissatisfied.
The sound was so loud that Xiao Yan quickly reached out and covered the other person's mouth, which made the sound sound somewhat muffled.
"Big brother, are you trying to get us killed? This is an academy. If people find out, we'll both be in deep trouble."
"Xiao Yan warned in a low voice."
"Hehe, I was just too angry," Koromon replied quietly, giving an awkward laugh.
"You're not guarding the gate properly, and you're just going to fawn over any pretty girl you see?" Xiao Yan raised his hand and gave the rolling beast a flick on the forehead.
The rolling beast winced and complained, "You and that pretty Ning Rongrong are alone in a room, so why can't I and Xue'er stroll around the campus?"
"Xue'er?" Upon hearing this name, Xiao Yan pondered for a moment: Qian Renxue was too busy this time, so she sent a maid to invite him to travel?
Does this mean that the Soul Emperor I'm supposed to accompany has to be found by myself, or is it Xue'er?
Back in Notting City, Xiao Yan sensed the soul power fluctuations emanating from the other party. As a maidservant of the Crown Prince of Tiandou, she would most likely also work as a bodyguard, so she was definitely a Soul Master. However, to say that Xue'er was a Soul Emperor was too exaggerated, and Xiao Yan did not believe it.
"Yeah, when she came to your dorm, I recognized her at a glance. Then I frantically gestured to her that you and Ning Rongrong were in your dorm. I don't know if she understood or not. Then she just walked around the campus with that on her, hehe." Thinking of this, Rolling Beast chuckled again.
"So, she's still on campus?"
"Yeah, I don't know if teleporting me like this will scare her—" Koromon muttered softly, but quickly shut his mouth before he could finish speaking.
"Xiao Yan, it's been three years, and you've even started hiding girls in your dorm room?"
It turned out that the Koromon sensed Xue'er approaching. The woman had black hair, and her figure and height were no different from three years ago. The biggest change was that her face had lost its youthful immaturity and she looked more mature.
Hearing the other party's somewhat sarcastic words, Xiao Yan's expression became a little awkward.
"A transaction, cough cough, it's just a matter of mutual consent."
"A deal?" Upon hearing this word, Xue'er frowned, as if she had heard something incredible, and her face showed disdain.
"I never imagined you had such a shady deal with the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Don't worry, I'm here on the Crown Prince's behalf. I won't tell Sect Leader Ning about your affair with Ning Rongrong." Xue'er said, raising her index finger to her mouth as a gesture of shushing.
"It's been a long time. Come to think of it, I've never seen you whenever His Highness the Crown Prince comes over." The ball-shaped beast in Xiao Yan's arms had already jumped into the other's arms on its own, and the other gently stroked the ball-shaped beast's little head.
"What you outsiders see is the majesty of the royal family, but we who work inside are doing all sorts of trivial tasks."
As Xue'er spoke, she explained why she didn't often appear by Xue Qinghe's side.
"So, you've come here to prepare for your journey?"
"Yes, His Highness the Crown Prince means the sooner the better, to avoid any unforeseen complications. After all, the incident with Dai Mubai happened more than a month ago." Xue'er pondered for a moment.
Xiao Yan looked surprised. How could Xue Qinghe have told her about this? It seemed that the other party's trip was not to invite him to embark on his journey.
"What about the Soul Emperor? His Highness the Crown Prince said he would send a Soul Emperor to me to investigate Xingluo together. You know I'm timid and not very strong, hehe."
"Me? What? Can't you tell my cultivation level?" Xue'er said, and six soul rings suddenly lit up on her body. The color of the soul rings was not as amazing as Xiao Yan's, but she was still a Soul Emperor. Moreover, she was only in her early twenties, and she was even more talented than Yu Tianheng.
Hiss. Xiao Yan took a breath. Although he had guessed it, he didn't expect it to actually be true.
"As for you, are you really a coward? How could a coward dare to fabricate a master, let alone fool a bunch of adults at the age of ten?" At this point, Xue'er realized that the boy in front of her, who was taller than her, was only fourteen years old.
"Your master really tells you everything." Xiao Yan sighed. He originally thought that Xue Qinghe had seen through his identity, and he would only treat it as a handle he knew.
"I only know what I should know, no matter how small the matter is," Xue'er said truthfully.
"Alright, then wait for me to say goodbye." Xiao Yan thought to himself that he didn't know how many months he would be gone, at least half a year, and it was hard to say.
