C851 A Bright Future
Ling Xiao originally wanted to tolerate Guu Ju's' old king selling melons and boasting 'as she was educated by a lady.
But when he said that there was no one in the family who could make Guu Fei in time, besides his tender face full of contempt, he even gave a cold snort to express her contempt.
"Humph!"
Hearing the disdainful snort and seeing who it was, City Lord Lin Chen and Great Elder Guu Ju looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with apprehension, and they could only smile bitterly at each other.
Ling Xiao was ranked behind Guu Fei. When she saw Guu Fei coming down, she walked up to him.
She saw Ling Xiao, a very special girl in the family, walking up to him.
Everyone in the Guu family stretched out their necks to look. They were afraid that they would be slower than the people around them and find out the realm of this mysterious and beautiful girl. It would be a loss to them.
Ling Xiao's fair and warm hand was placed on the big black cold stone. The eye-catching white and black, small and big, as well as the warmth and coldness of the scenery formed a sharp contrast.
Before people could say that Ling Xiao's little hand actually needed to be placed on the black stone, the black stone had already burst out with a golden light that they had never seen before.
Level eight elemental energy!
Everyone looked at each other in disbelief. No one had thought that although this person had a special status in the family.
However, Ling Xiao, who had always kept a low profile and did not cause trouble, was actually already at the eighth level of elemental energy.
"How is this possible?" The Great Elder, Guu Ju, stood up in an instant.
Initially, he thought that his son, Guu Fei, could already be considered the outstanding talent of this generation of the family. Who would have thought that this Ling Xiao, who had always kept a low profile, would actually amaze the world with a single feat. She had already reached the eighth level of Yuan Power.
Guu Ju's expression was different. He looked at Ling Xiao with a very complicated expression as he said in his heart:
"Since she was able to hide from my eyes, I believe that she must have a rare treasure that concealed her true cultivation!"
City Lord Lin Chen could not help nodding his head and praising, "At the age of sixteen, she has already reached the eighth level of Yuan Power. Not bad, she is a good seedling."
As if considering that these words weren't enough to express his praise, Lin Chen continued.
"I have never seen such talent in Xuanhe City. I believe that you will definitely be able to enter the Profound Heaven Sect!"
After hearing Lin Chen's words, Ling Xiao didn't care about the face of the City Lord and immediately rejected him.
"I don't want to enter the Profound Heaven Sect!"
The unexpected rejection made Lin Chen's facial expression change. He was on the verge of exploding.
He had been the City Lord of Xuanhe City for many years, and there had never been anyone who dared to make things difficult for him in Xuanhe City.
If it was anyone else, even if it was Patriarch Guu, who had the same seat as him, he would not be able to bear the consequences. However, it was Ling Xiao who rejected him.
Since it was Ling Xiao, he could only reveal a helpless and bitter smile. He swallowed all his anger and pretended that this was not the case.
When they saw Lin Chen's performance as the dignified Xuanhe City City Lord, everyone who witnessed it was extremely shocked.
They thought that Ling Xiao must have some kind of background, but they never thought that she would be so powerful to such an extent.
She was able to humiliate the City Lord in front of so many people, and she could only make the City Lord swallow his anger and avoid talking about it.
And this was enough to show that there was a background behind her that was beyond their imagination.
Not to be provoked, this was everyone's judgment of Ling Xiao.
"Lin Chen, this cowardly turtle, actually let go of this little slut Ling Xiao just like that!" Guu Fei cursed in his heart.1
Originally, with his fifth level of elemental energy, it was enough to be an example of the Guu family's generation. But Ling Xiao's strength suddenly appeared, making everyone praise her.
Initially, they thought that she was proud of herself and rejected City Lord Lin Chen, which would bring about Lin Chen's revenge, causing her to suffer, but in the end, it was Lin Chen who endured it.
This caused Guu Fei's resentment towards Ling Xiao to accumulate in his heart.
After Ling Xiao, another dozen or so disciples from the Guu family accepted the test. As Guu Fei expected, not to mention the fourth level of Yuan energy, there wasn't even a third level Yuan energy expert.
Among them, there were even a few who were in the Body Refining stage. It was just that these people were different from Guu Feng. There was no genius father. They were not eye-catching and it was boring to step on them.
"Finally, it's your turn."
Guu Fei was extremely excited in his heart. He could not wait to see Guu Feng, this trash who could not even cultivate Yuan energy, show off in public, and embarrass his father.
When Guu Feng's name was announced by the person in charge of the test, all the people present, without exception, cast their gazes at him.
Everyone wanted to know if this alchemy genius, who had suddenly emerged a year ago, still couldn't cultivate his Yuan energy.
Knowing that he was the focus of everyone's attention, Guu Feng didn't feel any pressure at all. He just followed his own pace and walked towards the testing black stone.
Watching his son walk towards the testing platform, Guu Yue's mouth opened and closed nervously, but he didn't say a single word.
Lai Yao saw Guu Yue's body trembling. She knew that he was worried that Guu Feng would receive the harshest ridicule, but there was nothing she could do. She could only use her soft hand to hold Guu Yue's big hand tightly, so that she could support him.
When Guu Feng walked towards the testing platform, mocking and mocking voices could be heard without an end.
Yes, Guu Feng was a genius alchemist, but he was also a genius alchemist who could not even cultivate his Yuan energy!
If he could cultivate even the slightest bit of Yuan energy, no one would be able to say anything. Everyone could only surround him and flatter him.
But he was. No matter how hard he trained, he could not cultivate any Yuan energy that ordinary people could refine!
Since you, Guu Feng, didn't seal our Medicine Pill's mouth, of course we will accept your kindness. We will mock and insult you as much as we can to vent our anger on a piece of trash like you who has cultivated elemental energy for no reason!
Lin Chen looked at Guu Feng and felt that he was ignoring the noise in the outside world. He was not surprised by it and couldn't help but be interested in it.
"Was it him who refined a tier 7 Medicine Pill previously?"
"Haha, not bad, it's him!"
Patriarch Guu Hao's face was overflowing with a smile as he said proudly, "Didn't I give you some Medicine Pill previously? He was the one who refined it."
"He refined a tier 7 Medicine Pill at such a young age. It can be seen that his skill in alchemy is very high. He will definitely have a bright future on the path of alchemy in the future!"
Lin Dong sighed with emotion. He felt as if a new generation had emerged after a new generation. After which, he seemed to have thought of something and asked.
"Is it true that the rumors in the city say that he is unable to cultivate Yuan Power?"
Before Guu Hao could reply, Guu Ju interrupted, "City Lord, you have a lot of things to attend to every day. Perhaps you do not know, but this Guu Feng has already reached the ninth level of Body Refining six years ago."
"The ninth body refinement realm, six years ago?" Lin Dong thought for a moment before saying:
"At that time, Guu Feng should be around ten years old. At ten years old, he was already at the ninth level of Tempered Body. This aptitude can be considered to be superior, how can it be..."
