After thinking of his father, Xiao Zhan couldn't help but think of his son Xiao Yan. Although his son's talent was lost, as long as Xiao Ling took action, he would definitely be able to cure this strange disease.

Xiao Ling wrote in the letter that after meeting Xiao Yan, he would personally check Xiao Yan's physical condition and solve Xiao Yan's talent problem.

In Xiao Zhan's view, a sixth-grade alchemist is already omnipotent. As long as Xiao Ling personally checks it, it is impossible for him not to find out Xiao Yan's problem.

So in Xiao Zhan's mind, it is only a matter of time for Xiao Yan to recover his talent. He never thought that Xiao Ling would not be able to see Xiao Yan's situation.

Thinking of this, Xiao Zhan planned to quickly arrange the things in front of him and tell his youngest son about this good news later.

Waving to everyone, Xiao Zhan said: "I have said everything I want to explain. Go back and pack your things."

After listening to Xiao Zhan's instructions, everyone walked out of the meeting hall and headed towards their own courtyards.

I have to pack my belongings quickly, because I will have to live in the imperial capital in the future. Some of the clansmen who grew up in Wutan City have never been to the rumored imperial capital.

Seeing that most of the clansmen had left, Xiao Zhan said to the three elders around him: "Three elders, the issue of the sale of the Xiao family's shop will be handed over to you. I have some personal matters to attend to, so I won't stay any longer."

After receiving the affirmative reply from the three elders, Xiao Zhan came to Xiao Yan, patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder, and said happily: "Yan'er, come with your father. I have good news to tell you."

Xiao Yan, who was about to get up and leave, was stopped by Xiao Zhan. Hearing that there was good news to tell him, his curiosity was aroused.

After a while, the two walked into Xiao Zhan's courtyard. Along the way, Xiao Yan was guessing what the good news was. Although he thought it might be related to the recovery of his talent, he didn't dare to let himself think about it. If he had expectations, but the results were not satisfactory, it would be even more uncomfortable.

After the two sat opposite each other, Xiao Zhan smiled gently at Xiao Yan, and did not intend to keep him in suspense, so he directly said: "Yan'er, do you still remember your cousin Xiao Ling?"

Hearing his father asking about Xiao Ling, Xiao Yan's heart skipped a beat, which intensified Xiao Yan's inner speculation.

Thinking for a while, he replied: "My cousin Xiao Ling and I are not very close. When he was still in the family, I had a few exchanges with him. When I was young, I had some prejudice against him. When I grew up, I realized that he was a very real person."

Nodding, Xiao Zhan said again: "In fact, Xiao Ling has always cared about you. The prescription for Master Mitchell was not actually asked by me, but he took the initiative to send it to me after knowing your situation."

Xiao Yan on the opposite side was also a little surprised to hear this hidden truth. Even he thought that his father privately used the resources sent back by Xiao Ling in order to treat him, or his father wrote to Xiao Ling to ask for it.

After all, he and Xiao Ling were not close, so even if he knew that his talent had disappeared, he would not care much.

Seeing Xiao Yan's surprised look, Xiao Zhan smiled and did not intend to keep him in suspense. He said, "In fact, in the letter sent back by Xiao Ling, he also mentioned something about you. When we move back to the imperial capital, Xiao Ling will finish the things at hand and return to the Xiao family, and he will personally check you. And he told me that he probably has some understanding of your situation. If nothing unexpected happens, he can help you solve the problem of cultivating talent."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan almost jumped up, but the excitement on his face could not be concealed at all. He clenched his fists tightly, and his flesh turned white. Even if his nails were embedded in his palms, he did not notice it at all.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Zhan on the opposite side understood it very well. After all, from a genius to a loser, this feeling is not something that ordinary people can accept. Xiao Yan has not given up on himself and is working hard to cultivate every day, which is also something that ordinary people cannot do.

After hearing the conversation between the father and son, Yao Chen in the Bone Flame Ring touched his somewhat transparent beard and said to himself in a voice that only he could hear: "This kid named Xiao Ling is really arrogant. He dared to boast without even checking once. With my means and the special features of the Bone Flame Ring, if there is no spiritual realm soul, it is impossible to detect any trace of me. I am looking forward to meeting that kid."

In Yao Chen's eyes, in a remote place like the Northwest Continent, it is impossible for a demon to reach the spiritual realm soul at the age of fifteen. Without extraordinary talent or heaven-defying opportunities, this configuration can only appear in the top geniuses of those ancient races.

Thinking of Xiao Ling going home to check Xiao Yan's body, Yao Chen made a plan.

After a while, when Xiao Ling finished checking Xiao Yan's body, as long as Xiao Ling was unable to help Xiao Yan recover his talent, he would show up and accept Xiao Yan as his apprentice. Not only could he use Xiao Ling's reputation to raise his image in Xiao Yan's heart, but he could also make Xiao Yan feel more present when he was most depressed. Then he could make up a story that he just woke up at that time, which would also make Xiao Yan's initial impression of him not so bad. After all, Xiao Yan was his original target. If there was no huge gap, Yao Chen would not give up Xiao Yan, but if Xiao Ling's talent reached a certain standard, Yao Chen could abandon Xiao Yan and follow someone else.

In the final analysis, Yao Chen has never spoken to Xiao Yan. Even if they will become a model master and apprentice who can sacrifice themselves for each other in the future, they don’t have that experience now, let alone talk about feelings.

And now Yao Chen’s main goal is to find someone to practice the Burning Technique and refine the most perfect body for himself. Finding a capable person to follow is also in line with his own ideas.

Rather than saying that Xiao Ling examined Xiao Yan, in Yao Chen’s eyes, this time is more of a test for Xiao Ling.

After calming down his excitement, Xiao Yan felt the warmth coming from his palm, but now he couldn’t care so much.

Xiao Yan asked impatiently, "Father, when are we going to the imperial capital?"

Xiao Zhan walked up to Xiao Yan, patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, we have been waiting for two and a half years, what's the difference between these few days? Just take the things you should prepare with peace of mind, don't practice these few days, relax your mind, walk around more in Wutan City, this is also the place where you grew up, there is nothing to do in the future, we basically won't come back again."

Hearing what Xiao Zhan said, Xiao Yan's somewhat impatient heart calmed down, and his clenched fists loosened.

Anyway, it doesn't matter if these few days are needed, it's better to adjust your mentality, these two and a half years have been a bit too depressing.

After bowing to Xiao Zhan, Xiao Yan said, "Okay, father, then I will go pack my things first."

After that, he walked out in a flash. He was a little excited and didn't pay much attention just now. Now Xiao Yan felt the pain from the palm of his hand. Now that he is still a little cultivated, he can't ignore such injuries.

Looking at Xiao Yan's departing back, Xiao Zhan was very relieved and whispered in a low voice: "Even if you have experienced a low period of two and a half years, your father still believes that you can still become a strong man. My son, Xiao Zhan, has never been a waste."
