Chapter 184: Meeting Xiao Yu by Chance

"The Nether Poison Flame...?" Xiao Yi Xian fell in contemplation upon hearing his words, and after a moment, she lifted her head and said firmly.

"I want to devour this Heavenly Flame."

"Are you sure?" Xiao Ming asked in a deep voice.

"The Heavenly Flame is not that easy to devour."

Xiao Ming thought about the pain he had suffered when he absorbed the Heavenly Flame for the first time before, that feeling of having countless hot worms crawling all over his meridians, it wasn't something anyone could endure.

"I've already made up my mind," Xiao Yi Xian's expression was very determined.

"The Poison Flame Method can also control the Woeful Poison Body, with the other method, you would still have to find that Monster Core of a seventh-rank Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast, which is very hard to find, isn't it? Besides, with the Nether Poison Flame, my strength can be greatly improved."

'Moreover, with this method, I will finally be able to be by your side' these words only sounded in Xiao Yi Xian's own mind.

"Have you really thought about it?"

"Mhm, of course. You keep asking the same question, couldn't it be that you don't want to let go of that Heavenly Flame?" Xiao Yi Xian asked while letting out a chuckle.

"How can that be? "Xiao Ming smiled when he heard her words.

Although the Heavenly Flames were said to have a huge appeal to Alchemists, the Nether Poison Flame was not one of them.

No one would dare to devour this Nether Poison Flame.

That said, this Heavenly Flame was not useless to Xiao Ming, at least it possessed enough energy.

However, it would be more useful to Xiao Yi Xian, and she would be able to help him in a shorter period of time.

It also saved him the time to cultivate Xiao Yi Xian.

In short, using this Heavenly Flame for Xiao Yi Xian was much more profitable than devouring it himself.

"Since you've thought of it, so be it. For now, keep cultivating hard, and when your strength reaches Dou Spirit, I'll take you on a journey."

"Mm." Xiao Yi Xian nodded softly, then suddenly blushed and said, "It's just that... I don't have any more cultivation resources".

The cultivation resources Xiao Yi Xian was talking about were poison pills.

Although Xiao Yi Xian's Woeful Poison Body cultivation was very fast, it also required devouring these kinds of things to do so.

The greater the strength, the more difficult the necessary poison pills were to obtain.

Xiao Yi Xian's strength was now that of a Dou Grandmaster, and there should be some poisonous herbs for sale on the Inner Academy's shopping street.

When she finished the poison pills that Xiao Ming had left her before entering seclusion, she visited the shopping street, it's just that, unlike Qing Lin, who had an immense amount of Fire Energy in the Fire Crystal Card that Xiao Ming had left her, she only had a small portion that Xiao Ming had left for emergencies, and she had spent it all very quickly.

"There's no more?" spoke Xiao Ming in a low voice.

He hadn't left that much Fire Energy to Xiao Yi Xian due to the fact that he hadn't needed it for a long time, and what he had left to both girls was what remained from a few years ago, and naturally, most of it was given to Qing Lin, who was continuously spending Fire Energy in the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.

However, Fire Energy was only a minor problem.

With one random pill he took out, he could get thousands.

He could even directly ask the Elder in charge of this area in the Inner Academy to directly allocate a sum of Fire Energy to him.

The only sixth-tier Alchemist of the Jia Nan Academy could do whatever he wanted.

Of course, he still planned to use the pills in return, as the cost would not be much.

"Alright, let's go to the shopping street to look for more, speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've walked around the Inner Academy, so let's take a break for today." Xiao Ming said slowly while slightly extending his arm towards her, a move which Xiao Yi Xian understood and with a sweet smile, held his arm.

If she held his robe, the toxins on her skin would not affect him, she knew that Xiao Ming would be fine even if he made direct contact with her skin, still, she felt calmer this way, and Xiao Ming, knowing her worries, thought of this.

In this way, Xiao Ming left his courtyard with his arm being held by Xiao Yi Xian.

Xiao Ming's small courtyard was in the Elders' Zone, so the two of them headed toward the area where the students were.

Neither of them suggested flying there, instead, they walked at a leisurely pace, as if they wanted to take as long as possible.

At first, there weren't many people on the path, but later, they encountered more and more people.

Looking at the Inner Academy, which was gradually becoming livelier, a smile appeared on Xiao Ming's face.

He was in a good mood and couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, 'This Inner Academy is still as lively as ever'.

"Out of my way!" Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out, causing Xiao Ming's footsteps to stop.

Hearing the voice, he turned his head and saw a familiar figure.

'Xiao Yu?'

The female figure was quite tall, and below her waist was a pair of impressive legs.

Xiao Yu did not notice Xiao Ming, at this moment she was being disturbed by a group of male students, led by a rather handsome-looking man dressed in green robes, who was holding a bouquet of flowers.

The flower was no ordinary flower, Xiao Ming recognized the flower as a medicinal herb, which he casually planted in his room, as it had a mild calming effect on the mind.

"I said get out of my way, are you deaf!?" Xiao Yu looked at the people blocking her path and her face showed impatience. Just a moment ago she was walking calmly when they suddenly blocked her way.

The person leading the group was someone she knew, ever since she had entered the Inner Academy, this person had been bothering her, she had said long ago that she didn't like him, but he kept blocking her every day.

If she wasn't weaker than him, she would have taught him a lesson a long time ago.

"Classmate Xiao Yu, you just have to agree to go out with me. I really like you very much, look, this is the Jing Shen Flower I found especially for you!" The man in green said.

The men beside him also coaxed her, "It can be seen that Yao Huai likes you very much, accept his proposal!".

"Accept him!"

"Accept him!"

"What do I care if you like me? I don't like you, get lost now!" Xiao Yu, who had been bothered for a long time, had long since lost her patience and became even more furious when she heard these words, her face turning red with anger.

Anyone who could enter the Inner Academy was a proud and arrogant person, and when he was reprimanded by Xiao Yu in this manner, Yao Huai's face became a little embarrassed.

He had long ago bragged in front of his classmates that he would make Xiao Yu fall in love with him and then he would play with this long-legged girl every day, and to that end, he had gone to great lengths to find this Jing Shen Flower to impress the other party, but he would never have expected this Xiao Yu to be someone who did not know right from wrong, and kept insulting him, which directly ended his little patience.

It could be seen how the smile hanging on his face gradually faded away, and then he said in a cold voice, "I ask you for the last time, will you accept or not?".

Seeing this person's change in behavior, Xiao Yi Xian's beautiful eyes flashed with disgust, this kind of waste reminded her of Mu Li, a loser who relied on his background to stalk her when she lived in Qingshan Town.

"Heh, so now you don't pretend anymore? I'm telling you, in my life what I hate the most is trash like you, there's no way I'm going to say yes to you, so get the hell out of my sight!". Xiao Yu laughed angrily and said.

"It's your choice." Hearing these words, Yao Huai sneered and winked at some people around him, who understood in a matter of seconds.

They quickly began to surround Xiao Yu.

"What do you mean by this? Do you want to use force? Don't forget that this is the Inner Academy." Xiao Yu furrowed her eyebrows and shouted coldly.

"Of course, I know this is the Inner Academy, but in the Inner Academy, the strong have the last word, and sparring is not forbidden. The elders won't mind." Yao Huai said with a sinister smile.

"How dare you!" Xiao Yu shouted angrily, but inside she was anxious, she had to admit that Yao Huai's method might be feasible.

"Why wouldn't I dare?" Seeing Xiao Yu's anxious face, Yao Huai's face showed a smug expression.

"You have a lot of guts!" Suddenly, Yao Huai heard a cold voice coming from behind him.

Yao Huai heard this and immediately turned around as he shouted, "Brat, I advise you not to meddle, my brother is a member of the Medicine Gang..."

At the end of his words, his voice could not help but weaken.

This was because he realized that the person speaking was Xiao Ming.

As an Elder of the Inner Academy, many students knew Xiao Ming.

Because of his extraordinary talent and great ability to refine pills, many people considered him an idol.

Yao Huai's brother was among them and influenced by his brother, he recognized Xiao Ming immediately.

Seeing that it was Xiao Ming, Yao Huai's face turned white and he stammered, "It's not what it looks like, I just wanted to teach this woman a lesson..."

Before he could finish his words, he heard Xiao Yu's surprised shout behind him.

"Cousin Xiao Ming!"

Hearing these words, not only did Yao Huai's face break out in a cold sweat, but several of his associates beside him also had fake sweat on their faces and felt their legs falter a little.

'Xiao Ming, Xiao Yu, both surnamed Xiao, shit! Why didn't this idiot woman say earlier that she was a member of Xiao Ming Clan, wouldn't she be fine if she had said so earlier?' Yao Huai cursed Xiao Yu in his heart.

Xiao Ming first nodded to Xiao Yu, then said to Yao Huai who was beside him, "Go back and pack your things, in three days, leave the Inner Academy, you have been expelled."

Yao Huai heard this and immediately shouted against it, "No! Even if you are an Elder of the Inner Academy, you cannot expel me at will."

"Oh, you can try not to leave then." Xiao Ming was too lazy to pay attention to him, it was true that the Inner Academy Elders could not expel students at will, but that was based on the situation where the other party was right.

Students did not usually provoke the Elders, so in normal times, very few students were expelled.

Yao Huai's case was different, he had caught him red-handed and had no problem expelling him.

After saying this, Xiao Ming also looked at the "accomplices" beside Yao Huai and said, "Each of you will be fined one hundred fire energy, and when you are with the Disciplinary Elders, you will explain the situation to them."

"Yes." Although they were a little sad about their fire energy, they nodded hurriedly. Compared to Yao Huai, who had been expelled, the fire energy deduction was at least within acceptable limits.

"Alright, you are free to go."

Xiao Ming gave an order and several people rushed over to drag the disoriented Yao Huai away.

And it was then that Xiao Ming turned his gaze towards Xiao Yu, who was a bit excited at this moment.

It had been almost a year since she and Xiao Ming had seen each other.

She didn't expect that the next time they would see each other would be like this, this time it was fortunate that Xiao Ming was here to help her, otherwise, there would be a chance that person would manage to take advantage of her.

Thinking about this, Xiao Yu said with gratitude in her voice, "Thank you Xiao Ming for helping me just now."

"We are from the same Clan, no need to be so polite." Xiao Ming smiled and shook his head, "In the future, if you encounter a similar disgusting situation again, you can directly say my name."

Xiao Yu nodded at his words, indicating that she understood, then looked at Xiao Yi Xian, who was holding Xiao Ming's arm, and asked with some curiosity, "Who is she?"

"Let me introduce you, this is Xiao Yi Xian, a good friend of mine" Xiao Ming introduced her to Xiao Yu, then said to Xiao Yi Xian, "She is a member of my clan, called Xiao Yu."

'A friend huh?' Xiao Yu thought as she rolled her eyes inwardly, who would stroll with a friend so affectionately around the Academy?

Although Xiao Yu had to admit that the women surrounding Xiao Ming were all top-notch, even she paled in comparison to Xiao Yi Xian, and only her long legs, which she proudly showed off, could put up any fight.

After Xiao Ming's introduction, Xiao Yu and Xiao Yi Xian nodded at each other.

Xiao Yi Xian had a favorable impression of Xiao Yu, other than Xiao Yu being a member of the Xiao Ming Clan, it was mostly because she was not intimidated by that Yao Huai.

Xiao Ming carefully looked at Xiao Yu, and found that her strength had progressed to six-star Dou Master.

This caused him to be a little surprised, "You have rapidly progressed in your strength this year."

"It's thanks to the pills you gave me, cousin, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to reach this level." Xiao Yu said with a smile.

Xiao Ming had left some pills with Xiao Shan when he left the Xiao Family, moreover, Xiao Yu, being a genius of the Xiao Family and his grandfather the Grand Elder, would naturally have no shortage of them.

There were resources and her Qi Method was not low level, moreover, her own talent was already good in itself, so it was normal to have so many breakthroughs this time.

Xiao Ming did not say anything else, instead, he asked Xiao Yu. "You've been at the Inner Academy for a short time, right? It just so happens that we will be taking a walk around the Inner Academy, do you want to join us?".

"Sure." Xiao Yu turned to look at Xiao Yi Xian beside Xiao Ming, and seeing that she didn't seem to be against it, she no longer had any hesitation and agreed.

In the following time, Xiao Yu walked around the Inner Academy together with Xiao Ming and Xiao Yi Xian.

Xiao Ming also learned from her that the other clan member, Xiao Hu, had also entered the Inner Academy.

As the three of them walked through the Inner Academy, many people saw Xiao Yu and Xiao Ming talking and laughing, and immediately realized that Xiao Ming and Xiao Yu's relationship was not simple.

The relationship between the two was obvious when they thought about the fact that Xiao Ming and Xiao Yu had the same surname.

The students who guessed their relationship immediately put Xiao Yu as an existence they should not offend.

Not to mention the beautiful purple-haired woman who seemed to be Xiao Ming's partner, they did not even dare to stare at her, for fear of offending Xiao Ming.

Of course, apart from the students who guessed the two things, there were also students who did not notice or care about that aspect.

Instead, after these people saw Xiao Ming, they immediately felt very excited.

After all, the story of Xiao Ming defeating Mister Gold and Mister Silver, who could rival a Dou Ancestor, was all the rage these days.

Powerful people in the Dou Qi Continent would always be the most important, so Xiao Ming naturally gained even more admirers.

Why say "even more"? This was because Xiao Ming already had a lot of admirers before.

So, facing the fiery gazes directed at him, Xiao Ming acted calmly because he was used to it.

The two of them, Xiao Yi Xian and Xiao Yu, did not feel uncomfortable either, they were both beautiful women, and they had gotten used to those stares a long time ago.

Instead, they walked proudly under the envious gaze of the students. On the way, Xiao Ming first took them to the place where the Fire Energy is exchanged and exchanged three thousand fire energies in exchange for some pills.

Then, he went to the shopping street to buy poisonous herbs, and Xiao Ming, after thinking it was not enough, took them to the Herb Warehouse and met with the Guardian Elder, who complained to him about Zi Yan's mischief, and it was there that he learned that Zi Yan had stolen a few more medicinal herbs. After consoling him and taking some medicinal herbs, Xiao Ming and the girls turned around.

After leaving the Herb Warehouse, Xiao Yu couldn't take it anymore and burst out laughing, the pitiful face of the Guardian Elder seemed very funny to her. Xiao Yi Xian also laughed lightly, thinking that her sister was taking what she mentioned in the morning very seriously.

When they finished, there was quite a bit of fire energy left over, so Xiao Ming let Xiao Yi Xian and Xiao Yu share them, as it was useless for him.

Xiao Yu refused at first, the fire energy was worthless to Xiao Ming, but to her, it was a huge sum of money.

However, under Xiao Yi Xian's own persuasion, she accepted Xiao Ming's fire energy.

Needless to say, both Xiao Yi Xian and Xiao Yu got along very well along the way. Seeing this, Xiao Ming smiled and offered to carry Xiao Yu up to her dormitory.

Standing at the entrance of her dormitory, Xiao Yu watched Xiao Ming and Xiao Yi Xian's back as they left, and a warm current flowed in her heart.

It was comforting that a clan member cared for her while she was studying far away from home, and this clan member was none other than the Supreme Elder of her family.

Moreover, during the walk, she finally understood how that girl had managed to win Xiao Ming's affection, and she could not help but wish them well from the bottom of her heart.

...

Xiao Ming and Xiao Yi Xian slowly walked back along the same path toward Xiao Ming's courtyard.

Although neither of them had said any words, they both knew what the other party wanted.

That's why before returning to the courtyard, they passed by a lake, where they decided to stop and sit on a log at the edge of the lake, with Xiao Yi Xian's head lying on Xiao Ming's shoulder, the two talked about things unrelated to cultivation. Afterward, Xiao Ming even caught a low-ranked magical beast that was very popular among the elders, and after eating happily, they finally headed to the courtyard in the Elder Zone.

When they arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, Xiao Ming felt that, inside the hall, Zi Yan had returned.

When they entered the hall, they found Zi Yan's eyes shining as she looked at the medicinal herbs in her hands.

"Xiao Ming, you're back just in time!"

As soon as Zi Yan saw Xiao Ming, her eyes lit up and she handed him the medicinal herbs, the meaning was obvious.

Xiao Yi Xian laughed as Xiao Ming shook his head and took the medicinal herbs nonchalantly.

"Little Grand Aunt, you're going to the Herb Warehouse every day, you almost made one of the Guardian Elders cry".

Zi Yan wrinkled her little nose when she heard this, sniffling slightly, "Why is he crying? As if these things had been his".

"I met Old Su just now, and he didn't even say anything."

"By the way, Old Su asked you to visit him, he says he has something for you."
