Chapter 340 What are you going to call me from now on? Little brother?
Xu Xiayan suddenly realized that she seemed to have underestimated Su Ming.
Xu Qianqian clearly told her from the beginning that Su Ming was much more powerful than she thought, but she still felt that Su Ming was a newly debuted one-star sorcerer who needed her care and protection.
Xu Xiayan has always been very concerned about Su Ming's affairs.
Firstly, Su Ming is a rare friend that his ice-cold niece makes friends with and cares about.
Secondly, Su Ming has the potential to become a seven-star magician, which makes Xu Xiayan admire his talent.
In addition, the two of them came from the same base city and the same hometown, which made Xu Xiayan, who had worked alone in Tianfeng City for a full ten years, feel somewhat close to Su Ming.
With so many reasons adding up, Xu Xiayan was so concerned about Su Ming's affairs. She was worried that a new warlock with little strength like him would suffer a great loss in a place like Tianfeng City.
But now it seems that there is a reason why Su Ming is taken seriously by his cold-tempered niece.
Perhaps, this little guy really hid something, which made the beautiful girls like Chi Qian, Mu Yan, Feng Qing'er, and Tong Xinyao believe in him one by one and finally join his team.
Xu Xiayan didn't know how Su Ming did it, but to be honest, she was really envious.
"Summer Chasing Smoke" has been established for eight years, longer than "True Red" which only existed for two years. Its scale is also far greater than "True Red", a team that took two years to reach Class B. Now it is only one step away from the highest Class S.
But even in "Summer Chasing Smoke", there are only 9 senior professionals among the total 133 team members.
Including himself, there are 4 four-star professionals, 3 five-star professionals and 2 six-star professionals in his "Summer Chasing Smoke", and the strength is comparable to that of the top families.
This is the result of eight years of hard work, and Xu Xiayan has always been very proud of it.
But what about Su Ming?
Less than a month after arriving in Tianfeng City, he had successfully established a team and recruited a six-star professional, a five-star professional, a four-star peak professional, and a promising three-star extreme spirit carrier! Could he have matched this achievement?
Of course not.
Looking back to the time when I had just established the team, I was full of energy and with the help of the Wang family and the momentum of having just been successfully promoted to a senior professional, I recruited many talents for my team.
At that time, Wang Di, the third young master of the Wang family, joined Xu Xiayan's team without hesitation as a senior professional.
But apart from that, Xu Xiayan failed to recruit a second senior professional. The most she recruited was only a three-star professional.
Unlike Su Ming, who was surrounded by three senior professionals and a spirit carrier right from the start. The former was not just a beginner at the senior level, he even had six stars, and the latter was regarded as a future supernova, the youngest senior professional. Judging from his current strength, it would not be surprising if he could become a senior professional at any time.
By then, this "Azure Mercury" will have a total of four superior professionals, including even a six-star professional.
It's just comparing yourself to others, it's really frustrating.
Seeing how smoothly Su Ming was developing, Xu Xiayan knew that it would be a long time before she could recruit him.
"I say, little brother Su Ming, since you are so capable, why don't you tell me earlier? I have been worrying about you for so long, don't you feel guilty?"
Xu Xiayan looked at Su Ming with a very resentful look.
Su Ming looked noncommittal.
"You got the order wrong, my sister Xu." Su Ming said, "It's because I saw that you were so worried about my affairs that I let you know."
After Su Ming said this, Xu Xiayan also reacted.
Indeed, if I hadn't been worried about Su Ming's affairs from the bottom of my heart, how could Su Ming, who was unwilling to expose his secrets, let me know so many things today? This was actually Su Ming expressing his trust in Xu Xiayan.
You know, this is a very rare thing.
After all, Su Ming had only exposed his secrets like this in front of An Zijin, the girl next door.
Even Xu Qianqian and Yun Langyue discovered Su Ming's extraordinaryness themselves, and then Su Ming stopped hiding it when he could no longer hide it.
Even Chi Qian and others had to sign a contract to promise not to betray and not to leak any information before Su Ming was willing to reveal some of his methods, but he did not reveal all of them.
Xu Xiayan and Su Ming did not have a touching and intimate relationship, and they did not sign a contract to guarantee it. As a result, Su Ming was willing to reveal some things, which was an unprecedented thing.
If it weren't for the fact that Xu Xiayan really took care of his affairs, sent him to Tianfeng City, gave him all kinds of advice and guidance, and also gave him a villa, gifts, and visited his home to evaluate him, Su Ming would not have done such a thing to show off in front of others.
"Okay." Although Xu Xiayan was still a little dissatisfied, she understood Su Ming's approach and sighed, "Young people nowadays have more independent opinions and ideas than us. We are really getting old."
In response to Xu Xiayan's sigh, Su Ming responded without thinking.
"You also know that you are old? Ah. It hurts, it hurts!"
Before Su Ming could even utter the word "Auntie", he felt his ear being grabbed.
"If you dare to call me aunt or auntie again, I won't be polite, little guy!"
Xu Xiayan spoke to Su Ming with a gloomy face, causing Chi Qian and others on the side to subconsciously step back and not dare to come forward to rescue him.
"Who told you to keep calling me little one?"
Su Ming was not afraid and directly retorted.
"So you are dissatisfied with this?" Xu Xiayan was slightly startled, and then she smiled and said to Su Ming as if she was looking at a little adult: "Okay, then I won't call you little guy or little brother anymore."
"Then what are you going to call me in the future?" Su Ming said without thinking: "Little brother?"
"How can you be so embarrassed?" Xu Xiayan said unhappily, "You are obviously younger than me, but you still let me call you little brother. Do you have any shame?"
"What's the big deal?" Su Ming said nonchalantly, "My Chihuahua is older than me, but he still calls me 'little brother' or 'brother leader'?"
Su Ming's words made Chi Qian and others turn their heads and look at one person.
"well?"
Feng Qing'er was stunned for a moment, then became angry.
"I'll always be seventeen, so what's wrong with calling you brother?"
At this point, Feng Qing'er suddenly reacted and became even angrier.
"No! Who is the Chihuahua!?"
Seeing this girl's startled and silly appearance, everyone chose to ignore Feng Qing'er.
Xu Xiayan said this after laughing for a while.
"In that case, I will call you Brother Xiao Ming from now on."
Xu Xiayan seemed very satisfied with the nickname she gave herself, and nodded frequently as she spoke.
"Is this different from what you did before?"

The corners of Su Ming's mouth twitched a few times.
"Of course." Xu Xiayan smiled, her voice became more seductive, and she blew hot breath into Su Ming's ear, saying: "This makes you and me seem closer, doesn't it?"
Feeling the heat next to his ears, Su Ming's heart skipped a beat and he felt a little overwhelmed.
What he feared most was being touched by these female demons who were greedy for his body.
If the female fairies don't touch him, then he can tell himself that women will only affect the speed of his development. It is useless to just look at them but not eat them. It is better for him to go home and practice his ancestral skills.
But once these female fairies start to make a move, it will be troublesome.
No matter what, Su Ming is a hidden old man... ahem, an elegant gentleman.
Once you are touched, it is very likely that your practice will be ruined, which will in turn affect your spiritual heart.
People are like this. They can keep saying no, but once it comes to their bodies, they will immediately become honest.
Therefore, Su Mingtian was not afraid of anything, but he was afraid that a female fairy would try to touch him.
So Su Ming quickly retreated strategically.
"Okay, now that you've met my team members, if you want to continue chatting, let's go to the living room."
Having said that, Su Ming immediately moved away from Xu Xiayan and ran towards the living room.
"Hey, Xiao Ming brother, don't run."
Xu Xiayan curled the corners of her mouth, as if she had found a new toy or seen something interesting, and chased after it happily.
This was originally Xu Xiayan's home, so she naturally knew how to get there.
So, she didn't hesitate and chased after Su Ming and left the hall.
Suddenly, only Chi Qian, Mu Yan, Feng Qing'er and Tong Xinyao were left in the hall.
The four of them looked at each other, and finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Is that the rumored Xu Xiayan?" Mu Yan whispered, "She is indeed worthy of her reputation."
"Yes." Tong Xinyao nodded repeatedly and said, "I feel so pressured standing in front of that person."
Su Ming didn't know that when Xu Xiayan was examining the four girls and testing whether they had ulterior motives, she was actually acting like a six-star professional.
The aura was hidden but not expressed, causing the four girls who were directly under scrutiny to feel tremendous pressure.
"Sister Qianqian." Feng Qing'er turned to Chi Qian and asked curiously, "Compared to you and Captain Xu, who is stronger?"
This question attracted the attention of Mu Yan and Tong Xinyao.
Chi Qian thought about it and finally gave this answer.
"I just got promoted, and Xu Xiayan was promoted successfully a year ago, so if we only talk about the strength of a six-star professional, the one who is better should be better."
Of course, Chi Qian didn’t think he would lose.
Xu Xiayan has had a smooth journey, unlike Chi Qian who rose strongly from the bottom. The difficulties and unforgettable battles she experienced were definitely not as many as Chi Qian's.
Therefore , "in terms of strength, she is stronger than me."
"In terms of fighting skills, I am confident that I am better than her."
"If we really compete, it's hard to say who will win."
Chi Qian's words made the girls nod their heads thoughtfully.
"Come on, let's go too."
Then, Chi Qian called everyone to go to the living room together.
