Gu Master Era: My Toad Swallowed the School Beauty at the Beginning

Wang Xiao left the lounge and went to Li Nan's office.

There was no one else in the office, so Wang Xiao said directly, "Sister Nan, I heard that there are some vacant faculty apartments in the school. Can you help me rent one?"

"What do you want to rent a faculty apartment for?"

"To live in, of course! I want to study alchemy, and it's very inconvenient living in the dormitory!"

Li Nan was drinking water, and she almost spat it out: "You want to learn alchemy?"

"Yes!"

"Wang Xiao, are you serious?"

"Of course!"

Li Nan hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, since you want to learn, I'll support you! I'll go to the city to find an alchemist and take you to become an apprentice... It's a pity that our school's alchemist is in seclusion, otherwise, the tuition would be cheaper if we asked him to be your master..."

This is Li Nan, no matter what Wang Xiao wants to do, she will support him unconditionally, without the slightest doubt.

You must know that the tuition for learning alchemy is not low.

It costs at least six to seven hundred spiritual stones a month.

Li Nan's salary as a teacher is not enough to support Wang Xiao's alchemy studies.

She had already decided in her heart that she would find a part-time job to ensure Wang Xiao's success.

Wang Xiao's heart was naturally filled with gratitude, and he said with a smile, "Sister Nan, I don't need to become an apprentice.

I've already asked Zhong Li to buy the alchemy furnace.

You just need to help me rent an apartment so I can have a place to practice alchemy in peace."

Li Nan was speechless.

Is learning alchemy that simple?

She asked, "You've already bought the alchemy furnace?

Where did you get the money?"

"My harvest in the Chenxi Secret Realm was not bad.

I sold the treasures I found and made a fortune!"

"But... without an alchemist to teach you, how will you learn alchemy?"

Wang Xiao had a headache.

This was really difficult to explain!

Moreover, with the system in place, his growth rate would only get faster and faster, making it even more difficult to explain in the future.

He suddenly thought of an excuse and said mysteriously, "Sister Nan, I'll tell you a secret, but you must not tell anyone!"

"Okay, I won't tell anyone!"

"Actually, I have taken an expert who lives in seclusion as my master.

However, my master told me that I must not reveal the news that I have taken him as my master, otherwise, he will not recognize me as his disciple!"

"An expert who lives in seclusion?"

Wang Xiao nodded: "Yes, my master is very powerful.

Do you know why I am not afraid of Hua Jinlong?

My master said that even that old ghost Hua Qianwu is not in his eyes.

If the Hua family dares to bully the weak, he will definitely take action and punish everyone in the Hua family!"

Li Nan felt incredible.

Hua Qianwu of the Hua family was a high-level Gu master who had been famous for more than 100 years.

There were only a few people in the entire Jinzhong City who could surpass him.

What kind of expert who lived in seclusion would be so arrogant?

Even if there was one, how could it be so coincidental that he took a liking to Wang Xiao and accepted him as a disciple?

Li Nan was very afraid that Wang Xiao was too young and would be deceived.

She still decided to ask, "Wang Xiao, tell Sister Nan, who is your master?

I promise not to reveal it!"

Wang Xiao lowered his voice: "Do you know the old man guarding the Chenxi Secret Realm?"

Li Nan nodded: "Senior Sun, I know him.

Could it be that he is your master!"

Only then did Wang Xiao know that the old man guarding the Chenxi Secret Realm was surnamed Sun.

He had forgotten to ask when they met last time.

He nodded: "Yes, he is my master!

Sister Nan, you must keep it a secret for me, otherwise, my master will not want me anymore, where else can I find an expert who lives in seclusion to be my master!"

Li Nan nodded solemnly: "Okay, Sister Nan will definitely not tell anyone!

Let me tell you, your master is indeed very powerful.

Once, I went to the principal's office and saw him pointing at the principal's nose and scolding him, and the principal was like a grandson, not daring to say a word!"

Wang Xiao was happy in his heart: "Wow, that old man is so powerful?

He even dares to point at the principal's nose and scold him!

You must know that the principal of Jinzhong No. 1 High School is at the same level as the city lord and the heads of the three major families!"

In this way, that old man is really an expert who lives in seclusion!

Well, if that guy Hua Jinlong comes to trouble me again, I don't have to show mercy!

If I really provoke the experts of the Hua family, I will let that old man take the blame!

As a great expert, he has to keep his word!

At the same time, at the entrance of the Chenxi Secret Realm, the old man guarding the secret realm was comfortably smoking "burnt fairy grass", puffing out clouds of smoke, so carefree!

"Achoo!"

"Achoo!"

"Achoo!"

After three consecutive sneezes, the old man muttered to himself: "Who is talking about me?

I have been hiding in this small city for thirty years.

Everyone should have forgotten about Sun Hong!

I don't know how my old friends are doing.

Alas, favors are hard to repay.

Who asked me to promise someone that I would wait until I handed that thing to the descendants of the Jin family..."

I am so stupid, why didn't I agree on a deadline at that time?

If the descendants of the Jin family are all dead, or never come back, wouldn't I be trapped here forever!

Alas, I miscalculated!"

...

Knowing that Wang Xiao had taken a very powerful master, Li Nan was so excited that she didn't sleep all night.

The next day, she gave Wang Xiao the key to the faculty apartment.

After school, Wang Xiao moved from the boys' dormitory into the apartment.

This is a small building with a cultivation room, a Gu-raising room, a bedroom, a lounge, a reception room...

There is also a set of protective formations to prevent intrusion.

The formation is closed and needs to be activated by consuming spiritual stones.

Jinzhong No. 1 High School has many such small buildings for faculty and staff to live in.

Wealthy students can also rent them for a fee, but the price is not low, and the annual rent is five hundred low-grade spiritual stones.

Wang Xiao had just cleaned the small building when Zhong Li came in from outside.

"Wang Xiao, I have brought you all the things for alchemy!"

"Thank you!"

"As a friend, I still have to say a few more words!

Alchemy is very difficult to learn.

Even with the guidance of an alchemist, it takes two or three years to get started with talent.

You want to learn alchemy on your own without a master.

It's simply wishful thinking!

A few years ago, I also had the idea of learning alchemy, and I even hired a master, but I didn't have the talent, so I gave up after practicing for a while!"

Wang Xiao replied without raising his head: "I am a genius!

Don't compare yourself to me!"

Zhong Li was speechless.

He did not understand Wang Xiao's blind self-confidence.

"Forget it, do whatever you want.

Anyway, after a while, you will give up on your own after being hit, don't blame me for not reminding you!"

As Zhong Li spoke, he released his space snail and took out an alchemy furnace, several boxes of spirit charcoal, some introductory alchemy materials, and several introductory-level pill formulas.
