The First Saint of Alchemy

Tang Yan frowned slightly. This old man's question was quite tricky.

Seeing Tang Yan's extremely complicated eyes, several people were just wondering when they heard Tang Yan's shy voice: "There must be a bird!"

There must be a bird?

The three were stunned.

The emperor and Ling Lao were the first to react. They only felt a tightness in their chests and almost vomited blood.

No wonder this guy's eyes were so strange. It seems that he misunderstood the meaning of his words. But can you not be so vulgar? Such a serious question, how can you answer it so badly!

And Qingxuan, who was very smart, also understood Tang Yan's meaning at this moment. She was embarrassed and annoyed, and she had to hold back the urge to laugh. This feeling was so uncomfortable.

After glaring at Tang Yan fiercely, Qingxuan turned her head away.

Ling Lao was also holding back a smile at this moment, and his face flushed red.

The emperor slapped the handle of the chair and said angrily: "Is this what I mean?"

"What does that mean?" Tang Yan blinked innocently.

"Father asks you, what should a man pursue in his life!" Qing Xuan rolled her eyes and reminded.

"So that's how it is." Tang Yan suddenly realized and said, "A man's life..."

Seeing Tang Yan stand up, the three of them were also a little nervous. This guy, wouldn't he be able to spit out ivory from a dog's mouth?

"Live as a hero, die as a ghost hero!"

When Tang Yan's resounding words rang out, the hearts of the three people couldn't help but tremble.

Just ten words, but made the elderly Ling feel excited.

"Good!" The emperor laughed and said, "A man's life is either a huge fortune or a great power. Tang Yan, as a good man of my Tingxiang, are you willing to add some strength to Tingxiang? I guarantee that you will hold great power, a prosperous life, and a worry-free life!"

Tang Yan shook his head and said calmly: "Thank you for your appreciation, Your Majesty, but Tang is shallow in talent and has no interest in the government, so I can't take on this important task."

"Important task? Why, are you afraid?" The emperor raised his eyebrows, with some sarcasm between his eyebrows.

Tang Yan cursed the emperor's ancestors in his heart. I'm not afraid of anything. You just said it nicely, so that I can hold the power.

But the strength of the royal family is no longer as strong as it was in Tingxiang.

With such a heavy responsibility, where can I enjoy the glory and wealth? I'm afraid I can only exhaust my energy to take care of this lingering royal family!

When I become successful, I should go to the Northern Spirit Realm.

So I worked hard for you, but in the end I got nothing?

"I'm scared." Tang Yan admitted with a lowered eyebrow.

"It turns out that Tang Wutian's son is not half as courageous as his father. It's really disappointing. In this case, you can go down!" The emperor seemed to be bored and waved his hand to signal Tang Yan to go out.

Didn't you say that you would recruit Tang Yan? Why did you let him go?

Just as Qingxuan was getting anxious, her heart suddenly jumped. Tang Yan's body shook violently, and she asked excitedly: "Your Majesty, do you know my father?"

"Hmph!" The emperor snorted coldly and said nothing.

Although he knew that he was threatened by the emperor, Tang Yan didn't care so much at this moment, and said anxiously: "I hope the emperor will make it clear."

The emperor's eyes flashed with satisfaction, and then he returned to seriousness, staring at Tang Yan and said: "If you want to know about your father, I have only one condition, stay in Tingxiang and help Prince Qingya build a stable country!"

Tang Yan looked at the emperor for a few seconds, gritted his teeth and said: "You say it!"

Hearing Tang Yan's agreement, the emperor's mouth cracked again, and he lay weakly on the chair. The words just now seemed to have exhausted all his strength.

And Ling Lao and Qingxuan were extremely surprised. What was the reason that made Tang Yan, who originally disagreed, change his attitude instantly?

The emperor looked at Tang Yan meaningfully and said, "Tang Yan, your family will be your weak spot in the future. If I don't give you much information, or even no help, won't you suffer a loss?"

"No regrets, just tell the truth." Tang Yan said bluntly.

A gleam of approval flashed in the emperor's eyes, and he nodded, "Loyalty and righteousness are rare and precious, but you must pay attention to your weak spot and don't let others pinch you. The last time I met your father was seventeen years ago."

Hearing this time, Tang Yan knew it was right, and listened quietly.

"That year, it was snowing heavily, and I went out hunting, and I happened to see your father at Qingle Peak.

Your father was covered with scars and had become a bloody man. When he saw me, he wanted to ask for help, but he fell down because of exhaustion.

I ordered people to bring him back for treatment, and it was still Elder Ling who did it at that time." The emperor smiled.

"Snowy seventeen years ago? The man whose internal organs were all shattered?" Elder Ling's eyes widened.

"Yes, it is this person. You all thought he left, but it is not true. He stayed in the imperial city for three months to recover from his injuries.

At that time, Tingxiang was also in internal and external troubles. Although your father did not show up in the war at that time, he played a crucial role.

Later, he left Tingxiang and left me a letter before leaving, telling me: Twenty years later, you can go to Dongyu Yuncheng to investigate the eldest son of the Tang family. If your strength does not reach the heavenly level, please ask me to keep you safe for the rest of your life.

If your strength reaches the heavenly level, I can give you your father's letter.

Xuan'er, bring me my jade ring!"

"Yes." Qingxuan quickly took a wooden box from the shelf, opened it, and placed a jade ring in it.

"Here is the letter your father left for you." The emperor gestured.

Tang Yan picked up the ring and found that there was only one letter in the storage space. After taking it out, Tang Yan opened it in a hurry.

A stream of spiritual energy suddenly came out of the envelope, Tang Yan's expression changed, and the true energy in his body suddenly gushed out, taking all the true energy. At this moment, a piece of thin paper floated out of it.

"This..." Qingxuan and the others were also shocked.

The emperor's expression was extremely calm, and he explained: "This letter was set up with a simple formation by Brother Wu Tian at that time. If the person who opened the letter is not strong enough to reach the heavenly level, the contents inside will be broken. If it is not opened within 20 years, the formation will automatically start."

After hearing this, the few people were relieved and secretly sighed at Tang Wu Tian's caution at that time.

Tang Yan's heart was pounding, and his hands holding the letter were shaking a little. Looking at the vigorous and powerful words on it, Tang Yan read them word by word.

"My son, when you open this letter, I am very pleased and guilty. You have not seen your parents for these years, and you have suffered."

"I am incompetent and have not been able to protect your mother. As a husband, I cannot let my beloved wife be bound. As a father, I cannot let my beloved son be without a mother. So, as a man, I must do my duty and find your mother!"

"This time, maybe ten years, maybe a hundred years, no matter what, if I can still breathe, I will not stop my steps, I want my wife, children, and the whole family to be together!"

"When you can open this letter, it means you have I can imagine how much grievance you have suffered and how much blood and sweat you have shed. "

"It's just that your mother's family is so powerful that it's unimaginable and invincible. Even a Tian-level warrior is still like an ant. Tian-level only means that you have a small qualification to track down your family's whereabouts."

"Knowing too much is useless. If one day you can become famous in the Northern Spirit Realm and step into the Spirit Realm, we will meet again as father and son."

"Life is important, don't be reckless. If you don't have the strength, it's better to live a peaceful life than to act on impulse. Believe in your father, I will definitely reunite the family!"
