Nonsense! How could my adopted son be a villain?

Xu Lingguang first took the kids to Xiankelai. Xiankelai lived up to its reputation. It must have some special skills to be able to gain a foothold in Fufeng City, which has many restaurants, in such a short time. Not only are the dim sum exquisite and delicious, but the dishes are also excellent.

The little ones stopped arguing and fighting, and buried themselves in their food, their cheeks bulging, looking like they were being well fed.

Of the cubs, only Wangtianhou is the most naive, amazed by everything he sees and finding everything he eats delicious. While eating, he mutters to himself, "Human food is so delicious!"

Hearing his rambling, Xu Lingguang thought of how he had tricked Wangtianhou out of Fengyu Mountain with just a piece of grilled fish. His eyes softened considerably, and he patted the little cub's head, saying, "There are plenty of delicious things to try in the future. You'll have many more opportunities to try them later."

The Sky-Gazing Roar rubbed against his palm, its fiery red fur trembling, its head almost buried in the plate.

After having dinner at Cyclamen, Xu Lingguang took the kids shopping. When they returned to Qianjinlou that evening, they had a basket full of toys and snacks, which were delivered to their door by the shop's staff.

Xu Lingguang is now very wealthy and generous, so he gives generous tips. The waiter left with a wide grin.

After playing with the little ones for three days, it was time for the Alchemist Gathering. Xu Lingguang had made the little ones very happy in the previous days, so when he and Lan Jian finished getting ready and told the little ones that he had to go out to run some errands and asked them to stay home obediently, the little ones nodded in agreement.

Only Si Yuan curled his lip in disdain and said to Liu Zhu, "They're too easy to fool! They didn't even notice that Xu Lingguang left them behind to go out and have fun."

Liu Zhu counted the pills in the Qiankun bag, then hung the bag on his waist and said, "I'm going out for a bit, so don't cause any trouble at home."

Si Yuan: "..."

He didn't want to go; he wanted to go with his wife. He followed Liu Zhu out, asking, "Where are you going? Can't you take me with you?"

Liu Zhu said, "I can't bring you to the alchemist's gathering."

Siyuan felt the name sounded familiar, and after thinking for a while, she remembered where she had heard it before—Xu Lingguang and Lan Jian were also going to the Alchemist Gathering.

He tilted his head, puzzled: "Xu Lingguang and Lan Jian are going too, why aren't you going together?"

Liu Zhu gave Si Yuan a look that seemed to pity someone with intellectual disabilities. It was obvious that the two of them were taking the opportunity to go on a date. If she didn't know better and interfered, Lan Jian's glare would probably pierce her through.

She ignored the mentally challenged Qilin, waved her hand casually, and her black skirt billowed in waves: "I'm leaving."

Si Yuan followed his wife to the door, watching her walk away without looking back, his face flushed with anger. It took him a long time before he dejectedly went back inside.

After a while, they encountered a wild raven that had somehow returned from somewhere. Chaos craned its neck to look down and clicked its tongue, saying, "Hey, where did this stray dog ​​come from?"

Si Yuan bared his teeth at him menacingly: "You don't want your bird feathers anymore, do you?"

The quail glared at the foul-mouthed Chaos, not wanting to be caught in the crossfire, and quickly flapped its wings to fly higher.

Since Si Yuan couldn't jump up and bite himself, Chaos, feeling emboldened, cackled and said, "I'm going to see what your wife is up to. You stay home and don't cause any trouble!"

They had clearly overheard their conversation.

Si Yuan was so angry that he jumped up and down, cursing loudly behind his back: "If you're so capable, then don't come back!"

Qi Tu quickly slunk back. He followed Liu Zhu to the teahouse where the alchemist gathering was being held, and was then discovered by Xu Lingguang.

The quail is getting wilder and wilder, often running around without ever leaving home. Xu Lingguang grabbed its neck and scolded, "What are you doing sneaking here? If you get caught, someone will pluck your feathers on the spot and turn them into elixirs."

The quail drooped its head timidly, while Chaos still held its neck high arrogantly, its red eyes rebellious: "Who has that ability?"

He had barely finished speaking when Xu Lingguang slapped him, making his head buzz. Xu Lingguang said, "There are plenty of capable people here."

After saying that, he gestured for the quail to shrink its size and follow, then added worriedly, "Behave yourself and don't cause any trouble."

Qi Tuan became obedient this time, shrinking its size and squatting on Xu Lingguang's shoulder like a quail. Hun Dun was very dissatisfied and wanted to run away with a rebellious spirit, but unfortunately Qi Tuan did not listen to him. It squatted on Xu Lingguang's shoulder and obediently acted like a quail, being extremely well-behaved.

Enraged, Hun Dun cursed and swore all the way, but Xu Lingguang, annoyed by his noise, cast a silencing spell on him.

chaos:"!!!!!"

After dealing with the rebellious little bird, Xu Lingguang smiled and greeted Fu Jiyu. Fu Jiyu was hosting the alchemist gathering again, so Xu Lingguang naturally greeted her, the hostess, first.

Fu Jiyu looked him up and down and said, "It's been a long time. The fragrance of the pills on you is even stronger now."

She opened her eyes in disbelief: "You're not about to break through again, are you?"

Xu Lingguang was the fastest-promoting alchemist she had ever seen. He had already made many alchemists envious and jealous by advancing to the Earth-level alchemist after only two years of practicing alchemy. Now, Fu Jiyu observed the fragrance of pills emanating from him and found that not only was the fragrance much more complex, but his aura was also becoming more harmonious, with a mysterious sense of restraint and integration.

All highly accomplished alchemists eventually return to their original simplicity, their bodies absorbing the fragrance of countless pills they have refined, which they then conceal internally, revealing only the profound essence of alchemy to the outside world.

Fu Jiyu's voice wasn't loud, but he didn't deliberately lower it either. The alchemists around who had heard of Xu Lingguang's deeds immediately turned to stare at him, as if they would pounce on him and bite him if he said "yes," to see if this "Tang Monk" had taken some kind of magic pill to make such rapid progress that others couldn't even catch up with him.

Xu Lingguang got goosebumps from the stares around him and subconsciously moved closer to Lan Jian, waving his hands and laughing awkwardly, "No, no, no, how could it be so fast? I'm not the favored son of Heaven."

Those around them seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

However, he then became envious and jealous. A complete novice who entered the field halfway through his career has achieved such success in just two years of studying alchemy. Isn't he the favorite son of Heaven?

Xu Lingguang was unaware of the secret complaints from the attending alchemists. He smiled and introduced Liu Zhu, who had come over a step later, to Fu Jiyu: "This is my friend Liu Zhu. Although she is still young, she is more talented than me in alchemy. She used to live in Xiliang City and always worked in isolation, so I invited her to come with me to this alchemy gathering."

Xu Lingguang's introduction was already very restrained; otherwise, if he had simply said that this was the Pill Emperor Liuzhu himself, it would have scared the group of alchemists to death.
