Chapter 61

Under the azure sky, above the white clouds, a tiny black dot was moving slowly.

Although the flying magical beast provided to Xiao Yan by the Jia Ma Imperial Family was already extremely huge, compared to the vast and boundless heaven and earth it was still somewhat insignificant, just like Xiao Yan's heart at this moment.

Xiao Yan originally thought that with his own strength within the Jia Ma Empire there was nothing that could truly make him fearful anymore, but today he finally understood the principle that there is always a higher heaven and someone more capable beyond.

Standing at the edge of the building, letting the howling hurricane blow upon himself. As a fourth-rank flying magical beast, its flight speed was naturally extremely fast; standing outside felt like being in a level-ten hurricane, which was absolutely not a pleasant experience even for Xiao Yan.

However, Xiao Yan had been staying here since the flying magical beast took off, with no intention of going inside, as if there were some great terror within. And in Xiao Yan's view, the fact was indeed so.

Ya Fei and Qing Lian were staying inside the building, seemingly because Xiao Yan had mentioned something in the morning, and Qing Lian seemed to have been continuously asking Ya Fei about information regarding the Imperial Capital's streets and such; Xiao Yan listened to the movements coming from inside the house, and thought to himself.

"The wind outside is so strong, Xiao Brother, why have you been staying out here all this time? Could it be that it helps increase cultivation?" Accompanied by the clear sound of footsteps, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind.

Upon hearing this voice, Xiao Yan's body instantly tensed up; he did not want to turn around to look at him, but feared he might take the opportunity to move his hands and feet behind his back. After weighing it over and over in his heart, Xiao Yan still turned around in the end.

"Cough cough, that, you also came out, Bai——" Just as he spoke halfway, Xiao Yan's voice suddenly got stuck; what appeared before Xiao Yan's eyes was not the person he imagined with a strange gaze looking at him, wearing an alchemist's long robe, but a petite young girl.

Before him was a girl with beautiful purple shoulder-length short hair, eyes like rubies, a petite figure wrapped in a splendid attire mainly in blue-purple, with white lace trim at the collar, layered skirt, and below that a pair of long boots with lace on the upper part, which gave her originally somewhat slender jade legs a hint of fleshiness.

The girl's body leaned forward slightly, with a somewhat playful look as she gazed up at Xiao Yan's somewhat astonished expression, the corners of her mouth slightly curled, her eyes carrying the smile of a successful scheme.

"Who are you?" Xiao Yan asked, somewhat bewildered.

The girl blinked her eyes, her vermilion lips slightly parted, and Bai Ye's voice came again from the girl's mouth: "What's wrong, Xiao Brother? Did you not recognize me just because I changed clothes?"

You're not just changing clothes, you know; originally Bai Ye was a standard middle-aged male appearance, and his height was about the same as yours. You haven't just changed your looks, your height is also shorter by a notch! Xiao Yan thought to himself.

However, through the voice just now and the number of people on the flying magical beast, Xiao Yan could roughly confirm that this person before him was indeed the previous Bai Ye.

No wonder he previously felt that with Bai Ye's talent he shouldn't have been only three-star at this age; turns out he hadn't grown up yet.

"It really is you! Bai Ye, so you're actually a girl!" Xiao Yan said with a sudden realization: "By the way, are you really called Bai Ye?"

"You guess?" The temporarily called Bai Ye purple-haired petite girl straightened her body, one hand behind her back, the other hand pressed to her lips, her eyes curved like crescent moons, and asked Xiao Yan.

"Hmm——" Xiao Yan carefully examined the girl before him; previously he had been disturbed by something and couldn't see Bai Ye's cultivation level, but now he could see it clearly—it was actually a Five Star Dou Zhe!

Although such cultivation should not be able to support the refinement of three-rank pills, considering that during previous discussions with Xiao Yan he had shown no flaws, it was evident that in terms of knowledge he had already reached the three-rank level, and possibly even successfully refined three-rank pills with the help of elders.

Such talent, even in the Imperial Capital, is absolutely rare; furthermore, this is on the flying magical beast of the Jia Ma Imperial Family, so the identity of the person before him is about to be revealed.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan's mouth corner curled up, and he slowly said: "I once heard that the Imperial Family has a little princess, not only is she beloved by people and flowers bloom when she sees them, but she also mastered a stunning alchemy skill, one of the most outstanding talents of the younger generation of the Jia Ma Empire. I don't know if Little Princess Yao Yue has heard of this."

"Mm!" After being praised by Xiao Yan in such a string, Yao Yue's little face instantly turned red, her moist lips slightly pouted, and she spoke somewhat resentfully: "I didn't expect you to guess so quickly. But you don't need to belittle people like this. Compared to you, whether it's cultivation or pill refinement, there's no such thing as talent, right?"

"But compared to others, you are still extremely outstanding, aren't you? If I haven't guessed wrong, your family's elders must be smiling in their sleep every day because of your talent, and the youths of the Imperial Capital must all regard you as their dream lover, meeting you every night in their dreams————"

"Stop stop! That's enough!" Faced with Xiao Yan's string of praises, although this was indeed partly true, Yao Yue still felt somewhat annoyed and suspicious, gazing at Xiao Yan: "You wouldn't be taking revenge on me because I deceived you before, would you?"

"How could that be?" Although his thoughts were exposed, Xiao Yan certainly would not admit it, brushing it off lightly: "By the way, how did you disguise yourself as that previous appearance? Height is easy to say, after all you've been staying in the alchemist's long robe, just add a pad under your feet, but what about the appearance?"

"Didn't you just take an ice silkworm face skin from Ya Fei's older sister?" Yao Yue, upon hearing this, gave Xiao Yan a white look and said.

"Ah, that's it!" Xiao Yan suddenly realized.

"By the way, do you still remember what we talked about at the banquet that day?" Yao Yue recalled the conversation she had with Xiao Yan at the Xiao family banquet, and immediately became somewhat excited, obviously she truly loves pill refinement.

"Of course I remember." Xiao Yan smiled slightly and answered affirmatively.

Saying this, Xiao Yan nearby found a place, sat cross-legged, patted the spot beside him, indicating for Yao Yue to sit down; Yao Yue naturally did not refuse.

The surrounding hurricane still howled, strongly sweeping over the two bodies. Yao Yue, whose cultivation was only at the Dou Zhe level, obviously could not withstand the fierce wind during the fourth-rank magical beast's flight for long; the battle qi she had been stirring up earlier now showed signs of depletion.

Xiao Yan extended his battle qi outward, forming a tight wind shield that enveloped both of them.

The originally howling hurricane instantly became a gentle breeze, blowing across Yao Yue's silky hair, bringing with it waves of fragrant wind.
