Chapter 924
After skillfully dividing the alchemy materials, Xu Fang began to refine them.

The refining difficulty of the second-grade elixir is much more difficult than that of the first-grade elixir, and the time is also longer, it takes one and a half hours to refine it properly.

In terms of refining, Xu Fang set very high requirements for himself, and the essence of each elixir must be as pure as possible.Under such a high requirement, it is a very big challenge to grasp the heat. Often, the medicinal materials are over-purified, resulting in the loss of essence, and the medicinal materials can only be refined again.

Under this high-standard specification, Xu Fang consumed alchemy materials very quickly. He could refine five parts of the material, but it is estimated that he can only refine two parts. If he is unlucky, he may only have one part.

Although Xu Fang feels distressed, he knows that if he wants to succeed, he must strictly demand himself.As long as I can get through this stage, I can lay a particularly solid foundation.

It is also because Xu Fang is concerned about loss, so every time the refining fails, he will carefully summarize the reasons for the failure.

After refining all the medicinal materials, Xu Fang began to fuse the essence of the alchemy in order.

Time passed by one minute and one second, and after all the elixir materials were fused together, and the timing was right, Xu Fang tapped the alchemy cauldron, and six elixirs appeared in the Chengdan area.

Xu Fang looked intently, and saw that the six pills were round and round, with restrained aura, all of high quality, and a smile could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth.

After collecting all the elixir, Xu Fang continued to refine the vitality elixir.

Until late at night, Xu Fang refined a total of 24 vitality pills, and the remaining materials were enough for one refining.

Xu Fang plans to finish refining tomorrow and start refining Xiaoyuanqi Pill.

The time is not messed up, and the nine days pass by with a snap of the fingers.

Yuan Qi Pill, Xiao Yuan Qi Pill, Qudu Pill, Hui Qi Pill, and Expansion Yuan Pill were all refined by Xu Fang.

Xu Fang was immersed in alchemy every day, and his alchemy skills have been further refined under the practice of excellence.

With such a high-frequency "output recovery" cycle of infuriating energy and mental power, Xu Fang was pleasantly surprised to find that his own strength had made a breakthrough, and he had reached the late stage of the Xiantian realm.

When he breaks through to the penetrating realm, he will have a way to save his life in the Southern Wilderness.

……

Xiao family.

Xiao Jingyan sat in the study, thinking about the recent development of the family.

I heard that the Han family, Lin family, and Feng family got the materials of the fourth-grade monsters, added some chips, and each exchanged a third-grade elixir with Mo Yunzong.

Originally, the strength of the other three major families was strong, but now that there are third-grade pills assisting them, the gap between the Xiao family and them may be getting wider and wider.

It seems that the three major families did not conceal these news on purpose, and now the Xiao family is in a state of panic, fearing that the three major families will join hands to destroy the Xiao family.Some of the guests of the Xiao family also wanted to leave.

Even the family that was originally attached to the Xiao family was inquiring openly and secretly about how to go to other families.

There is also that Xu Fang, who has been refining alchemy recently and has not come out behind closed doors. It has been the tenth day and he has not reported any news about alchemy. I wonder how his alchemy is going?Did it even start?
Thinking of the gap with other families, Xiao Jingyan was extremely anxious and couldn't sit still at the moment, so she was about to get up and go to Xu Fang's residence, but was interrupted by her personal maid.

"Patriarch, it's not good. The old housekeeper said that Deacon Liu of the Han family has brought someone here!" the maid Yutong hurriedly reported.

"What is he here for?" Xiao Jingyan frowned.

"They said they wanted to buy our Mingyue Restaurant on Huidong Street." Yutong said what he knew.

"Presumptuous!" Xiao Jingyan was furious, and quickly got up and walked outside.

Outside the door, the old housekeeper was already waiting anxiously. When he saw Xiao Jingyan coming out, he immediately said, "Patriarch, Liu Xi, the deacon of the Han family, is here."

"Well, I see, let's go and have a look together." Xiao Jingyan said coldly.

The old butler hurriedly led Xiao Jingyan to the front hall.

Yutong didn't follow, but stomped her little feet anxiously on the spot.

Xiao's front hall.

At this moment, a man with a mustache was sipping tea with his legs crossed, and he did not regard himself as an outsider at all.

He is the deacon of the Han family, Liu Xi.

Although the strength is only at the early stage of the penetrating realm, the Han family is the largest family in Qingcheng, and his status is very detached. Even if he meets the heads of the other three major families, he will not be so restrained.

"Why hasn't Xiao Jingyan come out? This air is getting bigger and bigger." Liu Xi complained dissatisfied.

"Presumptuous, did you call the Patriarch's name directly?" The elder of the Xiao family slapped the handle of the chair and angrily reprimanded him.

Liu Xi smiled contemptuously, and said, "The Xiao family really has a lot of rules."

"Dogs don't know the rules!" the Great Elder said in a bad tone.

"The Great Elder has a really big temper, and he is prone to sudden death when he gets angry. Isn't the Great Elder Xiao afraid that he will belch tomorrow?" Liu Xi asked mockingly.

The Great Elder wished he could kill this guy on the spot, but thinking of the gap between the Xiao family and the Han family, he could only hold back, but the bluish-white joints of his fingers showed that he was in an extremely bad mood right now.

"Yo, so it's Deacon Liu, I'm not far away." At this moment, Xiao Jingyan walked in in a well-dressed man.

Seeing Xiao Jingyan with a hot figure and a beautiful face, Liu Xi's eyes flashed with covetousness, and soon he restrained his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Patriarch Xiao is still so beautiful, and she is worthy of being the number one beauty in Qingcheng." .”

"Deacon Liu praised me a lot. There are many beauties in Qingcheng, so I can't make the list. I don't know what's the matter with you this time?" Xiao Jingyan asked coldly.

Deacon Liu smiled slightly, and said: "Our fourth young master of the Han family is going to start a small business, and we have fallen in love with you at Mingyue Restaurant on Huidong Street, and want to sell it. The price is also very fair, and I will give you [-] white crystals. Today Come here and sign a land deed with Patriarch Xiao, and the money will be delivered in a few days."

Xiao Jingyan's willow eyebrows stood on end when he heard the words, and felt that his breath was stuck in his mouth.

The Mingyue Restaurant on Huidong Street is very large, with an annual net profit of 150 million white crystals, and the Han family only quoted a price of [-] white crystals.Where is this to buy?It's a complete robbery!

"Whose idea is this? Are you delusional?" Xiao Jingyan asked mockingly.

"It's what our Patriarch meant! Our Patriarch said that 300 years ago, Huidong Street was all owned by the Han family. However, the ancestors of the Han family were kind-hearted. Seeing that the income sources of each family were limited, they gave up some land for everyone to do business. In fact, including Mingyue Restaurant, it is our Han family's business.

Our owner is kind-hearted. We won’t charge rent for your shops occupying our land all these years.In addition to the rent, I will also give you one hundred thousand white crystals as compensation for the decoration.

Why, my Han family is affectionate and righteous, but the head of the Xiao family doesn't seem to appreciate it? " Liu Xi asked in a deep voice.

Xiao Jingyan laughed back angrily: "What happened 300 years ago is brought up now? Even if we really want to start from 300 years ago, Huidong Street is not the domain of the Han family! Deacon Liu, please go back, we don't sell Mingyue Restaurant , you don’t have to mess around here anymore.”

"Patriarch Xiao, if you are not satisfied with the price, we can discuss it in detail, but my Han family must get it from Mingyue Restaurant. You also know that our fourth young master usually doesn't like to practice and has never found a direction in life. Now he suddenly wants to do some business. , the old man is very happy. If Patriarch Xiao disagrees today, then our Patriarch can only come to talk with Patriarch Xiao in person." Liu Xi threatened.

Hearing Liu Xi's words, the expressions of everyone in the Xiao family changed drastically.The Xiao family is now in decline, and they can't stand the attack of the Han family at all.Once the Han family is determined to deal with the Xiao family, the consequences will be disastrous.

A deep sense of powerlessness flooded Xiao Jingyan's heart.She didn't want to bear it, but she couldn't beat the Han family at all, but she endured it, and couldn't swallow the breath in her heart.

This is not the first time this kind of thing has happened. Over the years, the Han family has used countless reasons to take away a lot of property from the Xiao family.

If this continues, the foundation of the Xiao family will be hollowed out!
But what if you disagree?

Now he can maximize his interests with Liu Xi. If he refuses today, when the Patriarch of the Han family comes to the door, he may be negotiating another condition.

……

Jingxinju is the name of the small courtyard where Xu Fang lives.

At this moment, Xu Fang took a look at the materials in his hand, and found that it was not enough to refine the extra pills. Xu Fang decided to give the pills to Xiao Jingyan, and ask her for some more pills.

After making up his mind, Xu Fang tidied up his clothes and went out with Yu Xun.

The courtyard closest to Jingxin Residence is Xiao Jingyan's residence.

Xu Fang arrived at the door and asked Yu Xun to knock on the door.

The door opened quickly, and Yutong's head poked out. After seeing Yuxun, a surprise flashed in Yutong's eyes: "Yuxun, why are you here?"

"I'll bring Mr. Xu to find the Patriarch, Yutong, please report quickly." Yu Xun urged.

Yutong looked at Xu Fang curiously.

Before, Yu Xun and her served the head of the family together, and the two were good sisters who talked about everything. As a result, a few days ago, her sister was transferred away to serve "Master Xu".

Because Xu Fang hardly ever went out, she had never seen him before.However, many people in the family have discussed him.

It is said that it is because of him that the Xiao family did not get the resources of the fourth-grade monsters, which caused the strength of the Xiao family to further widen the gap with the other three families.

Some people also said that back then in the dense forest, Master Xu was slapped by the Patriarch of the Han family, so he didn't even dare to fart.

Such a good-for-nothing, the Patriarch actually kept her. Many people commented that Xiao Jingyan might have taken a fancy to Xu Fang and wanted to capture her as his son-in-law.

In short, many people who have met Xu Fang sneered at the mention of Xu Fang.If it hadn't been for Xiao Jingyan's repeated orders to emphasize the need to respect "Master Xu", he would have been kicked out by the tribe long ago.

Seeing Xu Fang now, Yutong couldn't help but take a few more glances.Not to mention, although the clansman said that this guy is a wimp, but this guy looks quite handsome.

"Tongtong, what are you doing in a daze, go and report." Seeing Yutong in a daze, Yu Xun immediately reminded Xu Fang for fear of making Xu Fang unhappy.

"Oh, the head of the house is not here. The deacon of the Han family came over to buy our Mingyue Restaurant on Huidong Street. The head of the house went to the front hall to negotiate with Deacon Liu." Yutong explained hastily.

"Not here, Mr. Xu, should we go back and wait?" Yu Xun asked Xu Fang for his opinion.

Xu Fang had seen a message from the head of the Han family, Han Binbai, in the dense forest before.

The Han family has the ambition to dominate Qingcheng, and they must have no good intentions when they come to negotiate this time.

"What is the scale of Mingyue Restaurant?" Xu Fang asked.

"It's very classy and well-known in Qingcheng."

"Business is good?" Xu Fang confirmed it.

"Very good, I heard it is a very important store for the family." Yutong explained from the side.

A bright light flashed in Xu Fang's eyes.

The Han family is disintegrating the strength of the Xiao family step by step in order to enhance their own strength.

Now I still have to rely on the Xiao family to practice alchemy skills, if the Xiao family is gone, I have to find another master.

The other three big families wanted to put him to death in the dense forest that day, so he naturally wouldn't defect without a spine.

If the Xiao family was gone, he would have to go to other cities if he wanted to make alchemy, that would be too much trouble.

You might as well help the Xiao family, lest the Xiao family disappear before you reach the third-rank alchemist.
