Chapter 21 I, Xiao Yan, will not be an ever-burning lamp.
boom!
Before Xiao Yan could answer, a heavy thud rang out.

Everyone saw Galeo transform into a streak of light and fly backward, only stopping after crashing into a wall in the market.

The whole process was so fast that few people had time to react.

"puff!"

Galeo spat out a mouthful of blood, looked up at the man whose foot was pressing on his chest, and said in a venomous voice, "Chu Xiao!"

Amidst the smoke and dust, a figure gradually came into focus. Thousands of black hair cascaded over his shoulders, his face was sculpted with distinct features, his thick eyebrows were sharp and hard, his high, straight nose resembled a majestic distant mountain, his bone structure was exceptionally well-defined, his thin, reddish lips were slightly pursed, and his deep eyes held a mysterious yet astonishing danger.

Wearing a long black robe with silver trim, which accentuated her tall and imposing figure, she exuded an aura of awe and dread, giving off a sense of both aloofness and asceticism. Yet, the faint smile at the corner of her mouth added a touch of liveliness.

“That is him, Chu Xiao!” Yun Yun’s beautiful eyes flickered.

In the past thirty years, she has seen countless handsome men and outstanding talents, but none of them can compare to the young man in front of her.

If, for some reason, I were to develop a flirtatious relationship with this young man, it would be perfectly normal.

"Moreover, not every Battle Master can possess this kind of aura."

In just a moment, Yun Yun was almost certain that this Chu Xiao was a reincarnated person.

In fact, this is related to the fact that the latter has now become a first-grade alchemist, and has undergone a comprehensive transformation by fusing with the Thunderous Emperor Flame, and his soul power has been enhanced.

After fusing with the Thunderous Emperor Flame, Chu Xiao's realm remained unchanged, but his strength increased significantly. In addition, a night of meditation made his soul power more compatible with the flame, allowing him to take his first step in the mortal realm.

According to his prediction, simply by visualizing the ancient book, it would not be a problem for the soul to enter the spiritual realm within a few months.

Although they won't be able to be "possessed" like Xiao Yan, they will still be able to increase their strength.

If one can learn the art of soul attack, even a Dou Huang can be ambushed.

So many changes happened overnight, her temperament was naturally different.

"Someone is coming."

Chu Xiao didn't even glance at Galeo, and spoke calmly.

Soon, a team of armored guards appeared and came to Chu Xiao's side.

"Young Master Chu Xiao." The middle-aged man at the head of the group bowed with his hands clasped.

He is the head of the market guard team and a three-star warrior.

Having connections within the Xiao family, he was already aware of Chu Xiao's strength.

An eighteen-year-old Battle Master has enough resources to easily reach the Battle Spirit stage; he has the potential to become a Battle King!
"Take him away and throw him into the Jialie Family Market." Chu Xiao smiled and waved his hand: "Today, he dared to stop Miss Xiao in my Xiao Family Market, tomorrow he will dare to beat up customers who come to the market at will, and the day after tomorrow he will dare to directly rob the goods in the market."

"My Xiao family must provide a safe environment for all merchants and customers, and we absolutely cannot tolerate the existence of such a scourge."

"I'll have my uncle talk to Chief Jia Lie. Is he going to start a war with my Xiao family?"

Everyone: ?
Everyone:!
"Pfft!" Galeo spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted instantly.

The last line is his line; the previous line is simply slander.

"Yes, Master."

The captain of the guard immediately ordered two men to grab Galeo.

Chu Xiao then clasped his hands in a fist salute to everyone: "To all the merchants who have set up stalls at the Xiao family's market today, the stall fee will be reduced by 10%."

"Anyone who shops at my Xiao family's shop will receive a 5% discount on transactions of 100 gold coins or more."

Upon hearing this, the people who were originally just watching the show immediately started discussing it.

Some people who hadn't originally planned to set up a stall today immediately changed their minds.

People who were planning to buy things immediately decided to buy more today.

For ordinary people like them, saving even one-tenth or five percent is a considerable amount of wealth.

"Thank you, Young Master Chu Xiao. Thank you, Young Master Chu Xiao."

"The Xiao family is righteous and the best in Wutan City."

"I've been running a stall in Xiaojiafang Market for twenty years, and I've always known that this is the safest and most trustworthy place."

“We can all testify that it was Galeo who influenced the operation of the market.”

"."

If Galeo were still awake, he would probably be so angry he'd faint. Chu Xiao greeted everyone with a smile, appearing approachable.

He walked over to a stall and said to the owner, "I didn't handle the purchase well and it affected your stall. I'll buy all your items for eight hundred gold coins to make up for the loss, how about it?"

The boss, who had been frowning, immediately put on a smile upon hearing this: "I'll do whatever Young Master Chu Xiao says, I'll do whatever you say!"

This pile of stuff was collected by his buddies and he was put in charge of selling it. It was worth between three and four hundred gold coins, with the most expensive item being a wood-attribute magic core.

Chu Xiao paid double the price to acquire it, so what could he possibly be dissatisfied with?
"If you're willing, then so be it." Chu Xiao waved his hand and put everything on the stall into his storage ring.

At the same time, he took out eight hundred gold coins and placed them all on the berth.

The shopkeeper immediately picked up the gold coins and said with a big smile, "Young Master Chu Xiao, I have a granddaughter who is well-behaved and clever. I wonder if she could be your maid?"

"Get lost, get lost! You're just jumping on the bandwagon. Do you think anyone can just become Young Master Chu Xiao's maid?" someone joked from the side.

Chu Xiao smiled faintly, and without replying, walked to Xun'er and Xiao Yan's side: "Let's go home."

With that, Chu Xiao tossed the wood-attribute magic core to Xiao Yan.

"Thank you, cousin." Xiao Yan didn't stand on ceremony.

"Little Yanzi, I need that piece of iron," Yao Lao's voice rang out.

"A piece of iron?" Xiao Yan asked疑惑地, "What's it for?"

"As expected, there is some kind of information recorded by the alchemist," Yao Lao replied.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

Information that would require such high-ranking alchemists to go to such lengths to record is definitely not simple.

"Teacher, let's go back and cultivate first, and we'll find an opportunity to ask for it later." Xiao Yan didn't rush to speak.

Because Chu Xiao was chatting and laughing with Xun'er, he was a good cousin and wouldn't be a lamp that burned forever.

"Ok?"

As Chu Xiao reached the corner, he suddenly turned his head to look at the market area.

But the place was empty; there was no one there.

"Is it just my imagination?" Chu Xiao murmured to himself.

"Brother Chu Xiao, what's wrong?" Xun'er asked, her hands behind her back, smiling as she looked at Chu Xiao from the side, her black hair fluttering in the wind.

"It's nothing, just a gift for you." Chu Xiao looked away and took out a necklace from his storage ring, giving it to Xun'er.

This is a necklace inlaid with a third-tier fire-attribute magic core, which can slightly accelerate the cultivation of fire-attribute battle qi.

Of course, the main reason is that it looks good and is aesthetically pleasing.

"Thank you, Brother Chu Xiao, Xun'er likes it very much." Xun'er smiled and said, "Could you help me put it on?"

Chu Xiao, of course, would not refuse, and said with a smile, "It would be my honor."

Xiao Yan: "."

Sure enough, he was right to skip breakfast before going out.

After the three disappeared at the market entrance, Yun Yun, dressed in a black robe, appeared, her eyes filled with undisguised surprise.

"It seems they've discovered me. No wonder they're reborn."

She is a Dou Huang, and a wind-attribute Dou Huang at that. If she deliberately conceals her aura, it is difficult for even experts of the same level to detect her.

However, Chu Xiao, a mere Battle Master, sensed her spying.

This is indeed unusual.

"Ok?"

As Yun Yun stepped into the Mittel Auction House, she suddenly received a notification that the Notes copy had been updated.

"Still testing the waters!?"

"Opportunity!"
