"Xiaoqing, are you cooking?!" Xia Feilong saw Xiaoqing. He showed a smile, which seemed very kind.
"Yes, brother Xia Yan just came back from outside and hasn't eaten yet, so I made some." Xiaoqing replied politely.
"Oh, that's it! Xia Yan, why don't you eat first, let's talk about this later?!" Xia Feilong paused, and tried to say to Xia Yan.
Xia Yan shook his head, "Ask first, I'll let the local dog out."
"Ask a dirt dog? How do you ask?!" Great Elder Xia Lai said curiously from the side.
Not only the Great Elder Xia Lai was puzzled, but the rest of the people were also very surprised. However, Xia Yan obviously wouldn't say such things casually, and couldn't help but look forward to seeing what Xia Yan would do.
"You will know later, the earth dog is not an ordinary dog." Xia Yan said with a smile.
"Dog, come out!" Xia Yan shouted to the right wing.
The earth dog hid in the wing room, and when he heard Xia Yan yelling, he let out a low bark reluctantly, and walked out of the room a little awkwardly, walking slowly on the ground with all four hooves. With his head drooping, like a child who has done something wrong, a pair of green eyes secretly glanced at Xia Yan, Xia Feilong and others from time to time.
Seeing the earth dog like this, Xia Yan thought, "Could it be that the earth dog really ate those pills?!"
"Tugou, have you eaten all the pills in Jingge?!" Xia Yan immediately looked at Tugou and asked.
The earth dog raised his head and looked around, as if he wanted to divert his attention or act as if he didn't hear Xia Yan's question.
Seeing this, Xia Yan became even more skeptical. If it wasn't for the earth dog eating it, the earth dog would definitely shake his head immediately.
"You bastard, answer my question honestly!" Xia Yan kicked the dirt dog.
"Wow!" The earth dog immediately lowered its head pitifully.
"Tell me, did you eat the pills from those families?!" Xia Yan asked again.
"Wow!" The earth dog nodded and lowered his head to the ground.
"You really ate it? You ate all those pills? There are more than two hundred pills there. What are you doing with so many pills?!" Xia Yan couldn't help taking a breath, and he also Surprised.
Why do earth dogs eat so many pills
"Woo..."
The earth dog nodded its head and pawed on the ground. Xia Yan saw what it meant, saying that he couldn't bear it and ate them all.
Looking at this scene, Xia Feilong and several elders were all shocked in their hearts. They didn't expect that this local dog could understand Xia Yan's words.
You know, even if it is a spirit beast. Nor can you hear human language directly, unless it is a trained spirit beast. Although spirit beasts are intelligent, they don't understand human language.
But this local dog can fully understand Xia Yan's words, which is really weird.
"Patriarch, elders, the elixirs are indeed eaten by dogs." Xia Yan was a little sorry, "I will try to refine these elixirs in a short time. By the way, the patriarch, I will write what I need in a while For medicinal materials, ask someone to prepare them, and then prepare an alchemy cauldron." Xia Yan thought for a while and continued.
This elixir must be refined as soon as possible.
"The twelve bottles of spiritual liquid that I refined last time, are they still there?!" Xia Yan thought of the spiritual liquid.
The spiritual liquid needs pipa grass, which is not easy to find. Yushui City does not sell it, and you need to enter the misty valley to collect it. Moreover, the last time Xia Yan searched around the Misty Valley, he only found two plants.
"The spiritual liquid is all there, but there is only one bottle left. Xia Liu is about to break through to become a spiritual master. After discussing with several elders, we decided to reward him with a bottle of spiritual liquid so that he has a better chance of breaking through to the realm of a spiritual master. "Xia Feilong's eyes flickered.
"Well, if Xia Liu can make a breakthrough, then our Xia family's strength will be strengthened a lot." Xia Yan nodded and smiled. Of course, he would be happy if Xia Liu made a breakthrough. If Xia Liu breaks through to the realm of a spiritual master, then after a period of time to stabilize his strength, he may also be able to get a position as a deacon in the church.
Xia Yan looked at the dog again, "Hmph, you've taken so many pills, I'll settle the score with you later!"
"Woo!" The earth dog barked aggrievedly.
…
"Patriarch! Hall Master!"
At this moment, a guard outside came to the gate of the courtyard and said respectfully.
"What's the matter?!" Patriarch Xia Feilong turned around and asked casually, this guard was Xia Feilong's personal entourage, and also a direct descendant of the Xia family, and had a relatively close relationship with Xia Feilong.
"Just now Xia Kui came in to report that there was an old man in black with a cloak on his head outside the gate of the house, who claimed to be a friend of Hall Master Xia Yan, and wanted to see the Hall Master and the Patriarch!" the guard bowed his head.
Xia Kui is one of the guards on duty outside the gate.
"Oh?!" Xia Feilong was taken aback for a moment, the man in the black cloak
"Could it be that he's here?!" Thinking of the man in the cloak, Xia Yan's heart moved, and he quickly said, "Clan chief, let this man in quickly."
Seeing Xia Yan being so solemn and eager, Xia Feilong immediately waved to the guard. Said, "Bring him in quickly."
"Yes, patriarch!" The guard immediately turned and left.
"Xia Yan, do you need to meet him?!" Xia Feilong looked at Xia Yan again and said tentatively.
"Well, it's time to meet him. If it's really him..." Xia Yan didn't continue talking, but turned around and said, "Xiaoqing, I'll come back for dinner after I finish my work."
"Okay, Brother Xia Yan!" Xiao Qing said with a smile.
A group of people walked from the inner courtyard to the outer courtyard, and then walked towards the main entrance of Xia's house.
Half a cup of tea time later, Xia Yan and the others saw that the guard had brought a man in black over. In the distance, Xia Yan saw the familiar black cloak.
"It's really him!" Xia Yan couldn't help shaking in his heart.
This kind of heart shock is involuntary, and Xia Yan can't control it. Although Xia Yan had only met this person twice, the mystery of this person left a deep impression on Xia Yan.
When he was in the sinful forest, this person knew the existence of the illusory realm, but did not enter the illusory realm. Moreover, he also said that he did so much because of the favor he owed.
"Hehe, Patriarch Xia Feilong. Elders! Hall Master Xia Yan!" The man in the cloak walked up to the crowd and greeted them with a low voice first.
Xia Feilong and several elders clasped their fists in response, and looked at Xia Yan again. Xia Yan knew this person, but none of them knew him.
"How should we call you?!" Xia Yan asked after thinking about it.
"Calling..." The cloaked man paused, as if thinking for a while, and said, "Just call me the cloaked man. I can't even remember my name. It's been too long. My head is also a little stiff."
"The man in the cloak?!" Xia Yan frowned slightly, and then stretched it out again, "You must have something to say when you come today? Then let's go to the living room?!"
After Xia Yan finished speaking, he looked at Xia Feilong.
"Yes, go to the living room, this is not a place to talk." Xia Feilong said with a smile.
"Anything!" The cloaked man said two words in a low voice.
Everyone, come to the parlor. Xia Feilong asked the servants to serve tea, the cloaked man sat down with the Xia family, and Xia Yan sat opposite the cloaked man.
"What are you doing here?!" Xia Yan asked.
"Strengthen the Xia family!" The man in the cloak said very briefly, but the meaning was very clear.
Strengthen the Xia family!
"Huh?!" Xia Feilong and several elders were all startled. What do you mean by this
"How to grow?!" Xia Yan was not surprised, but a little strange, why did the man in the cloak say these words
"First, improve the personal strength of the Xia family's children, so that the Xia family will gradually become stronger in martial arts and dominate one side. Second, let the Xia family's business on the mainland grow even bigger. If the Xia family's business can have a kind of Irreplaceable things, this is not difficult to do. Third, remove all obstacles that hinder the development of the Xia family, and help the Xia family clear the way for the future."
The man in the cloak spoke every word, although his voice was low, but the meaning was clearly expressed.
"Senior, why did you do this?!" Xia Yan asked again after pondering.
He didn't doubt that the cloaked man had this strength. He was the second person who could come and go without a trace in front of him. So far, besides the Holy Emperor, this cloaked man was the second one.
Xia Yan even suspected that the cloaked man also had the strength of the spirit emperor realm. But why did he still stay in the Dragon Continent? Xia Yan couldn't figure this out either.
"Repay a favor that has to be repaid!" The cloaked man's eyelids opened suddenly, and his eyes flickered. Even the voice suddenly became much stronger.
"You are willing to help our Xia family, of course we welcome it." Xia Yan nodded, "Maybe, if you don't want to explain the reason in detail, I won't force you to ask. But I have a feeling that sooner or later, you will tell I really want to."
Xia Yan said slowly.
"Hehe, maybe, but it's definitely not now." The man in the cloak resumed his previous expression and laughed a few times.
"Xia Yan, this..." Xia Feilong still didn't understand.
Not only him, but the other Xia family elders haven't figured out what's going on yet. The man in the cloak said he wanted to help the Xia family grow stronger, but this thing is really weird.
Suddenly a mysterious person appeared and said that he would help him become stronger, but he didn't put forward any conditions, which was really hard to believe. But Xia Yan seemed to trust him a lot.
"Patriarch, all the elders, if this senior wants to help our Xia family, then our Xia family will surely rise in the sky." Xia Yan looked sideways at Xia Feilong and several elders of the Xia family who looked stunned.
"Then..." Xia Feilong had also seen the big world, and immediately said to the cloaked man in deep thought, "What does this senior need us to do?!"
"I will refine a large amount of elixirs. Here is a list of the required medicinal materials. Take your time, from low-level to high-level." The cloaked man got up and took out a piece of paper from his lapel, on which a large number of medicinal materials were densely written.
"With the pills I refined and sold, no force will be able to intervene or take away the business of the Xia family." The cloaked man said confidently.
Xia Feilong took the paper in person, and took advantage of the gap to look at Xia Yan, Xia Yan nodded to Xia Feilong.
"Senior, we will try our best to find all the medicinal materials you need." Xia Feilong looked at the materials on the paper and said solemnly.
