Su Yun examined the Alchemy Cauldron up and down, marveling at it. This thing wasn't bad.
Back when Kuang Tang was still around, none of the things he gave were as valuable as this one.
It was worth noting that at the Alchemist Conference in the Jia Ma Empire, Yao Yue and Liu Ling took out their best items, which were only Fifth Rank Alchemy Cauldrons.
One had the backing of the Imperial Family, and the other had a good master, yet their Alchemy Cauldrons were only Fifth Rank. This Fourth Rank Alchemy Cauldron was already quite impressive in the Jia Ma Empire.
At least in his view, Ya Fei must have put in a lot of effort to get it with his current status.
"You have a good heart," Su Yun's expression softened, and he nodded at Ya Fei before putting the Alchemy Cauldron into the System Space.
Seeing Su Yun take the Alchemy Cauldron, Ya Fei's heart was filled with joy. Although Su Yun taking the Alchemy Cauldron didn't mean much, it was at least a sign of goodwill.
Ya Fei and Su Yun exchanged a few more pleasantries before sending Su Yun out of the Mittel Auction House.
Since she hadn't yet established herself in Wu Tan City, there was no need to rush into courting Su Yun.
As Su Yun returned home and took out an Alchemy Cauldron to start refining pills, it wasn't the one Ya Fei had given him but the Black Demon Cauldron.
Yes, the Black Demon Cauldron that belonged to Old Medicine.
When Xiao Zhan asked him to refine the Qi Gathering Pill for Xiao Yan, Su Yun had taken it from Old Medicine.
Not just the Black Demon Cauldron, but also the Soul Absorber from the Bonespirit Flame Ring.
When he first activated the system, he didn't think much about it and only copied Old Medicine's memories.
But when he returned to Wu Tan City and interacted with the Xiao family, his thoughts became more active.
He carefully selected these two items.
The Black Demon Cauldron's value was self-evident. For an alchemist, nothing was more attractive than a Strange Fire or an Alchemy Cauldron.
The Soul Absorber was for absorbing the Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire.
Previously, he had asked Luo Qianchen and Kuang Tang to find a Soul Absorber for a year with no results, so he decided to take matters into his own hands.
This item was extremely rare, and there weren't many in the Jia Ma Empire. To avoid delaying the absorption of the Strange Fire, he took it.
In the original story, the Mystic Heavy Ruler was a standout, but Su Yun had no interest in it.
The Mystic Heavy Ruler was too distinctive. The Black Demon Cauldron could be used secretly during alchemy, and the Soul Absorber was even more discreet.
He usually kept them in the System Space, and when it was time to absorb the Strange Fire, they would be placed in the Dantian for high concealment.
Using the Mystic Heavy Ruler in combat would be risky unless he killed everyone present, or Old Medicine would come looking for trouble.
Besides, it was important to leave something behind. If he stripped the sheep bare, it would freeze to death. He should at least leave a layer of skin for the winter.
Sustainable development, you know.
After refining the pills to aid cultivation, it was already dark. He had dinner with Xiao Yixian and practiced for a while.
Su Yun was about to rest when Xiao Yixian pushed the door open, a smile on her face, and pounced into his arms.
He had a fixed schedule for resting, which Xiao Yixian had long figured out.
Holding the girl's delicate body felt like holding warm jade, smooth and comforting.
Su Yun was somewhat indulgent. Their relationship had grown increasingly intimate over time. He was a virgin, but he wasn't stupid; he could sense the change.
As she grew older, Xiao Yixian's feelings for him were no longer those of a little girl seeking help...
Su Yun indulged in Xiao Yixian's presence, and she was no different.
In Su Yun's arms, Xiao Yixian felt a sense of longing. Su Yun's embrace was the safest place in the world.
Suddenly, Xiao Yixian frowned, sensing an unusual smell.
Su Yun, who often refined pills, naturally had a scent of medicine and herbs on him, but today she detected other scents!
It was the smell of rouge and perfume!
Xiao Yixian pulled away from Su Yun's embrace, her voice tinged with jealousy.
"Big Brother Su Yun, where did you go today?"
Su Yun was puzzled by Xiao Yixian's unusual reaction. "I went to the Mittel Auction House. What's the matter?"
"Big Brother is lying, waaah..." Xiao Yixian's eyes welled up with tears, and she cried and fussed.
"I'm not lying, why would I lie to you, Xian'er?"
Su Yun was at a loss. He wasn't good at dealing with this kind of situation.
"Big Brother has the scent of rouge on him, Xian'er can smell it! Big Brother must have gone to some shady places," Xiao Yixian sobbed.
Su Yun was at a loss for words. This was a huge misunderstanding.
He spent the whole night explaining to Xiao Yixian, and only when she cried herself to sleep did things calm down.
Su Yun felt embarrassed. This wasn't like in novels where the main characters had multiple partners. He couldn't even handle one.
The next morning, Xiao Yixian's cheeks were puffed up like buns.
She was still angry. Su Yun sighed and hugged her. Xiao Yixian resisted symbolically before falling into his arms.
"Alright, I love Xian'er the most. Don't be angry, okay?"
Su Yun blew warm breath into Xiao Yixian's ear, his lips brushing against her.
Xiao Yixian's face flushed, and she hugged Su Yun back.
"Xian'er isn't angry, but yesterday I felt very uncomfortable, I don't know why."
Su Yun pinched Xiao Yixian's cheeks and smiled inwardly. Xiao Yixian was only thirteen or fourteen, so it was normal that she didn't understand jealousy. However, the emotions were still there.
Su Yun placed Xiao Yixian back in her chair, not daring to hold her for too long.
People on the Martial Arts Continent developed faster due to the nourishment of martial qi. Though she was only thirteen, from Su Yun's perspective, she was already like a sixteen-year-old high school student.
In the early morning, his passion was already high, and he didn't want anything to happen just yet.
After all, it would be too intense.
Now, cultivation was the priority. Once he had enough strength, they could discuss these matters.
In this world, the strong lived longer, so it was never too late.
Thinking of this, Su Yun felt a bit regretful. It was a pity about Star Lord.
A month later, Su Yun had just delivered the pills to the Xiao family and was about to leave when he was stopped by two people.
Su Yun frowned and scanned them.

Su Yun understood. These two were the heads of the other two major families in Wu Tan City.
This was actually the first time he met them, even though he had been working with the Xiao family for about two years.
They only managed to see him today, which was quite surprising.
As the heads of their families, they were quite patient.
