Chapter 443: Chaos in Jingchuan

Xiao Fan bowed respectfully, then left the arena.

He was indeed lacking a bit of experience to pass the 3rd Grade Alchemist assessment, but what he lacked was time to familiarize himself with various pharmacological principles…

If all went well, after entering the Sacred Pill Tower this time, he would be able to reach the level of a 3rd Grade Alchemist.

As Xiao Fan left the arena, the eyes of the crowd remained fixed on him, lingering for a long time…

Nine Level 2 Medicinal Pills… eight of which were of perfect quality…

This achievement had already surpassed You Shi and Gu Yuan, making him absolutely the most talented Alchemy Prodigy among the younger generation in the arena.

Of course, everyone consciously excluded 4th-Grade Alchemist Jiang Yi.

4th-Grade Alchemist Jiang Yi was under thirty, had a Xuandan Realm cultivation base, and was a Grade 4 Alchemist…

One must know that the latter held the status of an Elder within the Ziyun Cave Heaven.

Therefore, in the selection for the Disciple level, everyone consciously did not count her.

What the crowd did not know was that the shock 4th-Grade Alchemist Jiang Yi felt in her heart at Xiao Fan's performance was no less than anyone else's.

Her mother would never lie to her, meaning this youth's fire control ability had truly reached the Grade 4 level, similar to her own…

Although the latter was currently only a Level 2 Alchemist, as long as he mastered pharmacological principles more proficiently, he could naturally reach the 3rd Grade.

Then he could proceed to challenge the Grade 4!

In the future, he would definitely be a potential threat to her.

The Alchemy Prodigy recognized as having the highest talent in the history of Wuhuang Province…

Xiao Fan was unaware of this; he walked to the Jixian Sect camp, stood before Kong Ping, and bowed respectfully.

"You did very well," Kong Ping praised, his face full of smiles.

He was very satisfied; he had not expected Xiao Fan's Alchemy attainments to be even deeper than when he had last seen him.

He had seen clearly just now that the current Xiao Fan was not far from being a 3rd Grade Alchemist.

It was just a matter of understanding complex pharmacological principles; with the latter's talent, even without entering the Sacred Pill Tower, he would likely be able to smoothly promote to a 3rd Grade Alchemist in a few months.

Of course, Kong Ping naturally could not tell Xiao Fan this.

The crowd left the arena; today's 1st Grade Alchemist and Level 2 Alchemist assessments were over…

Xiao Fan and the others returned to their lodgings.

There was nothing to do for the next few days, so they could walk around the city on their own.

Upon leaving the Assessment Hall, Xiao Fan received the Level 2 Alchemist badge issued by Shengdan City.

When going out, wearing this badge meant one belonged to Shengdan City, which came with many convenient benefits within the city.

For example, buying any Materials or other items would be discounted…

Nangong Lingxuan and Hu Rui were not here, so Xiao Fan had no interest in shopping, though he did want to take the time to go out for a stroll…

Although Long Caiwei liked shopping, for her, as long as she was with Xiao Fan, she was happy.

In these few days, she would run to Xiao Fan's guest room every day…

Xiao Fan was very helpless about this; his sister-in-law was so clingy, and he didn't know what to do…

Xiao Fan even wondered what reaction Long Miaoyin would have if she knew her sister was pestering him like this every day…

Countless miles away. Jingchuan City.

The annihilation of the Xiao Family completely shocked all of Jingchuan.

No one could have imagined that the Xiao Mansion would be wiped out overnight and burned to the ground by a fire.

Many people in the city suspected it was the work of the Dragon Family.

After all, the feud between the Dragon Family and the Xiao Family was known to everyone…

But these were only suspicions; no one could find any real evidence.

In fact, it was not just ordinary people who suspected this; even City Lord Lu Zhiming suspected it was the Dragon Family's doing.

This matter gave the Dragon Family a massive headache.

Long Family Ancestor had originally been in seclusion, intending to break through to the Xuandan Realm.

Having previously consumed the Medicinal Pill given by Kong Ping and Jiang Yushan, he had gained immense benefits…

As a result, having only been in seclusion for two days, he heard this news.

Long Anhai and the other clan Elders really had no choice, so they reported it to Long Family Ancestor, wanting to hear his opinion.

After all, with the Xiao Family wiped out, the Family most suspected of being able to do such a thing was the Dragon Family.

But the Dragon Family was truly wrongly accused…

If they had wanted to wipe out the Xiao Family, they would have done it long ago.

Furthermore, even if they wanted to, with Xiao Fan around…

It was impossible for them to do so.

After all, out of consideration for Xiao Fan's feelings, and because Xiao Fan had the blood of the Xiao Family flowing through him.

"Send someone to the Jixian Sect to notify Xiao Fan and tell him exactly what happened," Ancestor Long Zizai decided, sending two clan Elders to the Jixian Sect just like last time.

Fortunately, the Jixian Sect was not too far from Jingchuan City.

The Dragon Family members had no objections; after all, it would be bad if this matter caused a rift between Xiao Fan and the Dragon Family.

And the Dragon Family also sensed something wrong from this incident.

If it wasn't done by their Dragon Family, then who would want to wipe out the Xiao Family?

This matter was very suspicious.

There were all sorts of speculations in Jingchuan City, but no one would ever think that the person who wiped out the Xiao Family was Xiao Tian!!

Elsewhere, in Shengdan City, Xiao Fan…

Xiao Fan walked along the streets of Shengdan City with Long Caiwei.

Because of the Level 2 Alchemist badge, it was extremely convenient to go anywhere.

Even here, having a badge issued by Shengdan City was more useful than his Jixian Sect Disciple purple robe.

Xiao Fan marveled at the power of the Alchemy Lineage in Wuhuang Province.

In Shengdan City, the most sold items were Spiritual Plants and Spirit Medicine…

As well as Pill Furnace, tools, and finished Medicinal Pill.
