"You just miss us? I'm afraid it's not that simple, right?" Hu Qian looked suspicious.
"Of course it's not that simple. I also want to see if there are any good prospects to accept as apprentices. After all, Old Man Huo has an outstanding disciple, so I can't fall behind. I don't want to be as talented as Xiao Ming. There are ten I'll be satisfied if it's only one-third of the standard." Su Qian touched his gray beard and said with a smile.
"Are you kidding? One-tenth of Xiao Ming's talent can still be left to you. Do you think you are so lucky for an old guy like Old Man Huo?" Hu Qian was speechless at first, and then sounded envious.
In fact, the elders of Canaan College generally do not select apprentices from among the students. Ordinary students look down upon them, and those geniuses will only be with them for a few years and will basically not stay at Canaan College.
In Dou Qi Continent, a relatively feudal place, a teacher is like a father. If you run away after a few years of becoming a teacher, and the journey is basically very far, the teacher and the apprentice will not have any important exchanges. What's the use of accepting this apprentice? ah.
Elders who want to take on apprentices usually travel around and choose suitable talents, such as those from their own country, or simply adopt orphans, which can be regarded as knowing the basics.
The reason why Xiao Ming was accepted as a disciple by Elder Huo was entirely because Xiao Ming's talent was very strong, which shocked the attention of the elders of Canaan Academy, and attracted many elders. It happened that Xiao Ming had the talent to refine medicine and went to refine it. In the medicine department, Elder Huo took the lead.
Since Elder Huo accepted Xiao Ming as his disciple, Elder Huo has become the envy and jealousy of other elders.
They also want to accept a disciple like Xiao Ming. It can be said that Xiao Ming meets all their requirements for a disciple. He is extremely talented, smart and studious, diligent, respects his teachers, has a gentle personality, and is not arrogant. Where can I find such a disciple?
Especially some time ago, a Dou Zun came to Elder Huo and told them that Xiao Ming had become the leader of some kind of heavenly alliance, which made them even more envious.
However, no matter how much they envy a genius like Xiao Ming, they can only watch.
When Elder Huo saw Hu Qian and the others mentioning his precious apprentice, a proud smile appeared on his serious and old-fashioned face. Although he didn't say anything, everyone here knew what he meant.
I have a precious apprentice, you don’t have one!
"Hey, you old guy is so proud."
After Su Qian saw it, he shook his head speechlessly. Alchemists are already arrogant. Elder Huo seems to be even more arrogant after having Xiao Ming as his apprentice. Fortunately, Elder Huo has a more serious personality and doesn't talk much. I won’t show off everywhere.
"Grandpa, Elder Su Qian, Elder Huo..."
When Su Qian was speechless, a voice suddenly came from behind him, and several people turned around and couldn't help but smile.
Behind Su Qian, there are two figures, both of them are women. One of them is wearing a tutor's uniform. Even though the clothes look a little formal and loose, they still can't hide her graceful and delicate body, especially the rare pair of Her slender and sexy legs attracted a lot of attention.
There was another woman, wearing a red dress, with a whip wrapped around Liu's waist. She looked so cute, but some students didn't dare to look at her.
In this academy, who doesn't know the evil reputation of the female devil Hu Jiaqi just became an elder not long ago, and it would be a sad day for her to be targeted by her.
The two of them can be regarded as extremely outstanding figures in Canaan College today, and if Xiao Ming were here, he would be able to recognize these two familiar faces.
Xiao Yu, Hu Jia.
Judging from the aura, Xiao Yu is at the pinnacle of fighting spirit, Hujia Fighting King.
"Are you talking about that guy again? Hey, it's been so many years. That guy has become famous outside and doesn't come back to see him. What's there to talk about..."
Hu Jia glanced at Xiao Ming's statue, curled her lips, and said with a rather sour heart.
"Well...he's quite busy outside, so it's not incomprehensible."
Su Qian and others looked at each other and then said.
Hu Qian gave a bitter smile. He had already seen that his granddaughter was interested in Xiao Ming. He had been sad for a long time after hearing that Xiao Ming had a wife quietly a few years ago.
Xiao Yu, who was next to him, patted Hu Jia on the shoulder. Because of Xiao Ming's relationship, the two became good friends.
"Xiao Ming is really busy."
As a member of the Xiao family, Xiao Yu stayed in Canaan College as a tutor, but she still had contact with the family and had some understanding of Xiao Ming's situation.
Speaking of which, Hu Jiahui knew that Xiao Ming had a wife, or Xiao Yu told her.
"Just speak for him, he can't hear you." Hearing this, Hu Jia rolled his eyes.
"Who said I couldn't hear it? I heard it."
"..."
As these words rang out, the originally noisy square suddenly became much quieter.
A series of glances came to a stop on the stand, where a crack was torn in the space, and then two handsome men and beautiful women stepped out from it.
After Hu Jia was stunned for two seconds, he turned around with a look of disbelief on his face. When he saw the man who made the noise, he said with wide eyes.
"Xiao Ming! Why are you back?!"
"Can't I come back? If I don't come back, I don't know if someone is saying bad things about me behind my back." Xiao Ming said with a straight face.
"No, I..."
Hu Jia heard this and was about to explain anxiously, but then she saw Xiao Ming's slightly smiling eyes and reacted immediately.
"Okay, how dare you tease me! I'm not wrong, you haven't come back in the past few years."
After saying that, he ran to Xiao Ming's side and punched Xiao Ming's chest twice. It seemed that the force was very strong, but in fact, it didn't use much force at all. These two punches also broke away the unfamiliarity of not seeing each other for many years.
“I really haven’t had much time these past few years, so I still found time to come back this time.”
Hearing this, Xiao Ming reluctantly touched this green plum's head. Such an intimate act made Hu Jia's eyes filled with joy, and her heart was completely free of the previous sourness.
"It's really him..."
Xiao Yuyu covered her red lips with her hands. Although she had not seen him for several years, the familiar face was still familiar. However, compared to the young genius back then, the childishness on Xiao Ming's face had faded.
At this time, Su Qian, Elder Huo, Hu Qian and others also stood up from their seats and surrounded Xiao Ming.
"Teacher, great elder, vice-dean, elders! I'm back."
Looking at his teacher, Elder Huo, and the others, Xiao Ming quickly bowed.
"It will be good when you come back."
Looking at his beloved disciple's face that had matured a lot a few years ago, Elder Huo didn't say too many words, and touched his beard with a happy smile on his face.
"Hahaha! You are finally back! Since you went to Zhongzhou, I thought it would take more than ten years before I see you!"
"I've heard about your performance in Zhongzhou. You did a good job and it gave our Canaan College a lot of reputation!" Hu Qian and Su Qian said respectively with kind smiles on their faces.
"Great Elder."
Behind Xiao Ming, Zi Yan saw that Su Qian had completely ignored her and snorted. Speaking of which, Su Qian was the first human being that Zi Yan had come into contact with. Zi Yan still had a lot of feelings for him.
