Chapter 160 The Witch of the Cao Family
After a few brief words, Xiao Yun took the Little Medical Fairy and said goodbye, going to the room prepared by Danta to recuperate for the next test!

As soon as Xiao Yun opened the door and walked out of the study, he heard a cold voice.

“Are you the Xiao Yun who was rumored to be going crazy in the Alchemy Realm? An eighteen-year-old eighth-grade alchemy master?”

Xiao Yun and Xiao Yixian turned their heads and looked towards the source of the sound. Outside the study, they saw a beautiful girl with a slim figure leaning against the wall on the side of the corridor, looking at Xiao Yun with a slightly provocative look.

The girl had a slender figure and was dressed in a black dress. Her long, shiny black hair was casually draped down, making her look a little lazy. Her face had a cold expression and her eyes flashed with arrogance that kept people at a distance. However, because her eyes were too narrow and long, they revealed an indescribable charm.

Although it was the first time they met, the woman’s name flashed through Xiao Yun’s mind.

The witch of Cao family, Cao Ying!
“Yes, I am Xiao Yun.” Xiao Yun nodded and admitted it.

“Tsk tsk, I finally get to meet the famous Master Xiao.” The girl turned around, walked lightly in front of Xiao Yun and the others, stretched out her hand, showed a charming smile, and said: “Let me introduce myself, my name is Cao Ying.”

Sure enough it was her!

“I don’t deserve to be the master. Miss Cao, you can just call me Xiao Yun.” Xiao Yun shook his head slightly and also stretched out his palm. The palms separated as soon as they touched each other. Then he said slowly: “I wonder what Miss Cao wants to see me about?”

“How boring.” Cao Ying muttered, glanced at Xiao Yun, but still answered: “Didn’t the teacher tell you? I will take you to the room prepared by Danta.”

“Master Xuan didn’t mention it.”

“Okay, this is normal. The old man often forgets things.” Cao Ying shook his head, and then took Xiao Yun and the other person and walked downstairs.

Following behind Cao Ying, Xiao Yun didn’t know what other people thought of her as a witch, but he felt that her personality was really witchy. Along the way, Cao Ying kept asking him all kinds of questions.

What’s more, he did not play by the rules. One second he was asking Xiao Yun questions about alchemy, and the next second he started to care about his daily life. His personality was constantly changing, which gave him a headache.

It has to be said that Danta is indeed huge. After Cao Ying asked the thirtieth unreasonable question, Xiao Yun and the others finally came out of the room under her leadership.

“I have to say, you’re pretty good.” Cao Ying looked at the boy in front of her with her beautiful eyes and said with a smile, “Among your peers, you’re the only one who can chat with me for so long.”

So you know there’s something wrong with you, right?
Xiao Yun looked at the Cao family’s enchantress helplessly and said, “Miss Cao, if there is nothing else, I will go back to my room to rest.”

“No, no, no! I have one last question!” Cao Ying waved her hands repeatedly, and then whispered, “It is rumored that you can refine an eighth-grade elixir at the age of eighteen. Is this true?”

She stared at Xiao Yun. Although the outside world had confirmed that Xiao Yun had broken through to the eighth-grade alchemy master level at the age of eighteen, she still wanted to get an answer from him.

Ever since Cao Ying could remember, she had always been the one who crushed her peers among the five elder families. Even her brothers and sisters who were much older than her could not compare to her in alchemy.

She was an extremely proud person, like a phoenix, but she also had the capital to be proud! At the age of only fifteen, she was accepted as a personal disciple by Xuan Kongzi, a giant of Danta, because of her talent.

Before Xiao Yun appeared, among her peers in the entire Shengdan City, only Dan Chen from the Dan family caught her eye, but he was not as good as her.

But when Xiao Yun appeared, he crushed her just like she crushed others. However, he was two years older than her, and in terms of alchemy, she could no longer see Xiao Yun’s back. “This?” Hearing Cao Ying’s last question, Xiao Yun shook his head helplessly, stretched out his hand, and pointed his finger at his forehead.

The next moment, an extremely surging soul power surged out from between his eyebrows, and under his precise control, it only enveloped Cao Ying.

“Feel it for yourself.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yun withdrew his soul power, took Xiao Yixiang’s hand, walked past Cao Ying and entered the room.

“Oh!”

A dull sound was heard. It turned out that Xiao Yun had closed the door. However, Cao Ying was still standing there in a daze. A hint of fear filled her beautiful eyes.

At the moment when Xiao Yun released his soul power just now, Cao Ying felt as if she was trapped in the sea. The other party’s soul was the surging ocean, and she was a small boat with a lone sail. Facing the huge waves that swept across the world, helplessness, fear and trembling came from the depths of her soul, echoing in her mind, and refusing to dissipate for a long time.

“Huh…” After a long time, Cao Ying took a deep breath to calm her inner shock and fear. She looked at the closed door, her beautiful face full of disbelief, but it was soon replaced by a firm look.

“It turns out that everything is true! Xiao Yun, I must try my best to catch up with you! And stand in front of you again! Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I will not give up…” A cold voice echoed in the corridor, and the girl in black turned and walked towards the alchemy room.

……

After pushing the door and walking into the room, Xiao Yun discovered that the room was quite large, with all kinds of facilities available, including a large living room, three bedrooms, a study, a secret room for practicing, and even an alchemy room.

After entering the study, Xiao Yun adjusted the recliner to his most comfortable position, then casually took down an ancient book from the bookcase beside him. He glanced at it casually and found that these were ancient books on alchemy that he had never read before.

“The relationship between Yao Lao and the three giants of Danta is really close. He actually asked people to put so many ancient books in this study.” Xiao Yun crossed his legs and flipped through the books with relish. He smiled and said, “Xian’er, it seems that I will have to spend the next few days in this study.”

“Well, adjust your state, I won’t disturb you.” The little medical fairy nodded lightly, a curious look appeared on her quiet and pretty face, and she asked with a smile: “Xiao Yun, what did you do to Miss Cao just now? Why did she stand outside the house for so long?”

“Nothing, just releasing my soul power on her.”

“Ah? Your soul power?” Hearing this, Xiao Yixian was shocked. After following Xiao Yun for so long, she also knew some knowledge about the soul. The latter was able to break through to the eighth-grade alchemy master, and his soul power must have reached the spiritual realm or above. Cao Ying was only at the Dou Wang realm, at most a sixth-grade alchemist. If Xiao Yun released all his soul power on her, Cao Ying would probably be turned into an idiot.

“Then Miss Cao will be okay, right?”

“Don’t worry, I know my limits.” Xiao Yun smiled slightly, flipping through the ancient books and said with a smile: “I controlled the strength so that she could feel it clearly without damaging her brain. If something really happened to her, Master Xuan would not let me go.”

“That’s good, Xiaoyun, you rest here. I’m going to my room to practice. Call me if you need anything.” The little medical fairy nodded, then turned around and was about to leave the room.

“Xian’er, don’t rush to practice. Do you remember the copper piece I bought at the trade fair?” Xiao Yun stood up from the chair, wiped his palm on the ring, and a light yellow copper piece appeared in his hand.

“Come on, follow me to the alchemy room and extract the ingredients in here. When the time comes, you can take some. Maybe it can give your soul a hint of spiritual energy in advance.”
