Chapter 115: Nalan Jie Comes to the Door
Master Fa Ma's office was unusually spacious, with a small meeting room, and after making a cup of tea for Xiao Ming and Zi Yan, Fa Ma sat down in an expensive wooden chair and began to discuss some alchemy topics with Xiao Ming, as if he really had no other purpose but to exchange experiences.
The exchange was mainly Xiao Ming talking and Fa Ma listening, but of course, Fa Ma also had his own opinions, only Fa Ma did not say as much as Xiao Ming, and the exchange only stopped at noon.
During this time, Zi Yan felt bored and fell asleep on Xiao Ming's body, seeing this, he shook his head with a smile and placed her little head on his lap.
Xiao Ming was very satisfied with this exchange with Fa Ma, although Fa Ma's tier was not as high as his, but after all, he had been immersed in the fifth-tier alchemist for many years, and his lifelong experience in alchemy was not comparable to his less than ten years of exposure to alchemy.
Therefore, Xiao Ming still gained something from this exchange.
Xiao Ming had gained something, not to mention Fa Ma, whose tier was inferior to his.
After this exchange, many of the problems he had accumulated before were solved.
He had also made exchanges with Gu He, the only sixth-tier alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire before, but he had not gained as much as this time.
It was clear that Xiao Ming's alchemy was above Gu He's.
Xiao Ming was much younger than Gu He, barely in his teens, and his achievement at such a young age could not be explained by his exceptional talent alone.
He must have worked hard in the art of alchemy, so, sitting in his chair, Fa Ma said with a sigh, "When everyone saw you, Master Xiao Ming, they only marveled at your talent, even I did, but after this exchange, I realized that I was too short-sighted to only consider your talent for you to have reached this point."
In response, Xiao Ming smiled slightly and did not reply.
After seeing this, Fa Ma admired Xiao Ming's character more and more.
After thinking about it, Fa Ma said, "I don't think Master Xiao Ming has joined any forces in the Jia Ma Empire, do you have any plans to join any forces?"
Hearing Fa Ma ask this, Xiao Ming laughed a little and said, "Haha, I don't know if my family is considered a force. If you have something to say, Master Fa Ma can say it directly."
"Actually, I want to invite you to join the Alchemist Association."
"Oh?"
"There are many benefits of joining the Alchemists' Association, of course, those ordinary things are certainly not attractive to you, however, if you join the Alchemists' Association, you will immediately be a Grand Elder of the Association, and the Association can give your clan some facilities. The medicinal herb library and medicinal recipe library that the Jia Ma Empire Alchemist Association has built over the years will also immediately be open to you."
It could be seen that Fa Ma had given Xiao Ming very favorable treatment.
Xiao Ming, who received the message from his maid, smiled inwardly and said: "Nalan Jie? After waiting for two days, he has finally come."
It was because he had seen in the simulator that Nalan Jie would come to his door that he had stayed in the imperial capital.
Otherwise, because of the Seven Illusions Green Spirit Saliva, he would have taken the initiative to approach to the Nalan family.
This Seven Illusions Green Spirit Saliva was something he had always wanted to bring to his master.
"The Lionheart commander is still waiting outside, shall I invite him in?" the maid asked cautiously, looking at Xiao Ming with a strange color in her gaze.
"Invite him in."
"Yes." The maid replied and withdrew.
A few moments later, a loud laughter came from outside the door.
"Hahaha, Master Xiao Ming, please don't blame me for coming to bother you this time!"
Hearing the voice, a slender old man with white hair and beard entered the room.
"Elder Nalan has nothing to worry about, how could I blame you?". Xiao Ming said calmly.
Nalan Jie, who came through the door, looked at Xiao Ming without showing any obvious displeasure, and his apprehensive mood became slightly better.
Then he clenched his fist and said, "In fact, our two families, the Nalan family and Xiao family have been friends with each other before, and I am still a life and death brother with your old Head Clan, Xiao Lin, however, the girl from my family went to your family rashly, destroying the friendship between our two families, I am very sorry for that. To put it mildly, it is still my failure to educate Yanran, and I am here to apologize to you..."
"Elder Nalan is joking, Miss Nalan's matter is an agreement between you and the Old Clan Head Xiao Lin, it is a purely personal matter, and Miss Nalan and Cousin Xiao Yan had already reached an agreement. There is no need to apologize to me."
About this Xiao Yan matter, Xiao Ming really didn't want to bother with it, after all, it was a private matter.
Now that Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran had established a three-year agreement, the two of them had decided to settle it with their own strength, so why would he get involved?
If Nalan Jie wanted to make peace, then he should go to Xiao Zhan, not to him.
Seeing that Xiao Ming didn't seem to care much about Nalan Yanran's visit, a heavy stone in Nalan Jie's heart finally fell to the ground.
A few days ago he had sent Xiao Ming a compensation gift and the other party had not accepted it, which made him think that Xiao Ming held a grudge against his Nalan family.
He felt that Xiao Ming was going to give the Nalan family a hard time, but he did not expect him to genuinely think that it was the parties involved who should resolve it themselves.
