Chapter 69: Fama

Seeing Qie Mi Er's appearance, Xiao Yan and Fama couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"After all, this is the Alchemist Guild, and there are many people and eyes. And after this incident, some forces in the Imperial Capital will be even more crazy about inquiring about your news, so it is better to leave here early and go to my residence. There, no one in the entire Gama Empire can hurt you." Fama said.

Fama felt somewhat excited in his heart at this moment. Before, it was all speculation, but until now, he truly confirmed that Xiao Yan was indeed the disciple of that mysterious old man.

Xiao Yan nodded and didn't refuse. He indeed wanted to have a good chat with Fama. After all, at this time, if he didn't borrow Fama's power, he might really not be able to walk out of the Imperial Capital. Assassinating geniuses who couldn't be subdued was a consistent tradition of all major forces.

Seeing Xiao Yan agree, Fama didn't talk nonsense. His momentum suddenly surged, the wings behind his back suddenly unfolded, he reached out to grab Xiao Yan and put him on his back, and then flew rapidly toward the sky.

Just as Yao Ye brought her younger sister Yao Yue to the entrance of the Alchemist Guild, she saw Fama flying away with Xiao Yan directly.

"The relationship between the two of them is really not simple! It seems I have to tell Grandfather about this quickly!" Seeing Fama actually carrying Xiao Yan to fly, Yao Ye couldn't help but be somewhat surprised.

"That works too!" Seeing that Xiao Yan couldn't call him that, Fama didn't insist anymore. After all, if Xiao Yan really called him Junior Brother, it would feel quite strange.

Xiao Yan wasn't wrong! Yao Lao was indeed living quite comfortably now.

Xiao Yan provided Dou Qi to Yao Lao twenty-four hours a day; wasn't that eating well? Yao Lao spent most of his time resting in the ring; wasn't that sleeping well? Except for not having a body now, everything else was quite good.

"Little Friend Nie Feng dares to come here with an old man like me; aren't you afraid I have the heart to harm you?" Fama said with a smile.

"Uh... Teacher is eating well and sleeping soundly now. When he is in a good mood, he refines medicine; when he is in a bad mood, he takes a whip to lash me. Life is quite comfortable." Xiao Yan said.

I saw that this secret room was extremely spacious and decorated very exquisitely. In the middle, there was a stone platform with some medicinal materials and medicine cauldrons for refining pills. On the left, there were rows of medicine cabinets, each with many small drawers, each containing some medicinal materials, looking very neat. On the right, there was a table, a bed, and some other daily necessities.

"When I went out to travel, Teacher set off to handle his own affairs, saying that after he finished, he would come back to find me. At that time, I will bring him to visit you." Xiao Yan said faintly.

"Teacher has been well all these years!" Fama wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and asked with concern.

"Hehe, it's okay. Teacher often takes a whip to lash me for no reason!" Xiao Yan said with an embarrassed smile.

Xiao Yan looked down at the earth. Unknowingly, the two had arrived in a valley. In the center of the valley were luxurious residences. The scenery here was very beautiful, the air was fresh, and birds were singing and flowers were fragrant, making people feel relaxed and happy. Moreover, there was a huge waterfall here.

"But now he is traveling the world, so even if you want to visit, there is nowhere to go!" Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"It's truly beautiful! In the later generations, at least a billionaire could afford to live here! I didn't expect that in my previous life, buying a house of a few dozen square meters would bankrupt me, and most could only pay a down payment, but now I can live in a luxury villa." Xiao Yan sighed in his heart.

"You entered the sect early, so I should be the one calling you Senior Brother. Etiquette cannot be messed up." Fama said seriously.

"Uh..." Looking at the old man's serious appearance, if Xiao Yan didn't agree, it wouldn't work. It seemed it really wouldn't work. Because the older people are, the more they pay attention to etiquette, viewing etiquette as more important than their own lives.

Although Fama performed quite well, now was not the time for him to see Yao Lao. Yao Lao's current strength was only at the Dou Huang level, and even if they really had to fight, he might not necessarily be Fama's opponent. After all, Yao Lao was only in a soul state now, so precautions should still be taken.

"That is also true!" Fama shook his head helplessly, having to temporarily give up the idea of visiting Teacher.

"Hahaha! If Teacher hadn't mentioned you, how would I have known about you!" Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"Uh... Hahaha!" Hearing this, Fama was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud.

"Will you? Senior Brother!" Xiao Yan's mouth raised slightly, revealing a smile.

"He... he mentioned me?" Fama didn't have his usual serious expression at all now. He was just like a child; hearing that he had been praised by Teacher, he was immediately happy.

"Okay! Okay! Jun... forget it! I'd better call you Old Man Fa." Xiao Yan just wanted to agree, but then looked at Fama's age. He couldn't call him Junior Brother no matter what.

"I wonder when I can see Teacher again!" Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Fama was happy at first. Then he felt a sense of loss. After all, he and Yao Lao hadn't seen each other for many years.

"Teacher!" Fama knelt on the ground with a hunched body, facing the east, kowtowing nine times in a row. Tears fell like broken beads.

"Of course he mentioned you, and Teacher also said that he felt some regret for not taking you as a disciple at the time. He cared too much about talent and ignored character. So Teacher asked me to tell you when I saw you that in his heart, he had long regarded you as his disciple." To obtain Fama's protection, Xiao Yan fabricated a lie. Of course, this couldn't be considered a lie; Xiao Yan just said what was in Yao Lao's heart.

Fama took Xiao Yan to fly rapidly all the way, and Xiao Yan lay on Fama's back without feeling any discomfort. It was like sitting in a plane, only feeling the scenery around him changing rapidly.

"It seems your relationship with Teacher is quite good!" Fama said with some envy.

Fama took Xiao Yan to fly into one of the luxurious courtyards. After landing on the ground, he quickly took Xiao Yan through several turns into an underground secret room.

"Senior Brother, please get up first. You have performed the apprenticeship ceremony, so you are officially entering Teacher's sect." Seeing that this old man Fama was so solemn, Xiao Yan felt a bit of awe in his heart.

"How can that be! How can I let Teacher come to visit me! It should be me visiting Teacher." Fama said.

"What? You... you are really the disciple of the... that mysterious old man." Fama was so excited that he couldn't speak.

Fama originally wanted to call him Teacher, but that mysterious old man only pointed him out for three days and didn't take him as a disciple, not even a named disciple.

"You actually dared to name Teacher Xiong Ba; aren't you afraid that Teacher will fix you after he finds out!" Fama said half-jokingly.

At this moment, Yao Lao in the storage ring was also silent after hearing these words from Xiao Yan. He did indeed care too much about talent at the time and ignored character, otherwise, he wouldn't have been backstabbed by his disciple. And what Xiao Yan said was exactly what he wanted to say.

"Doesn't this name sound domineering? And I'm used to being beaten by Teacher, so I'm not afraid!" Xiao Yan said indifferently.

"Since you gave Teacher a fake name, your name is also fake, right! And your appearance..." After laughing for a while, Fama stopped and looked up at Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan smiled faintly and then told Fama his identity.
