I purchased a Singer 5511 Scholastic last spring and the sales person did a demo on serging. However I cannot find instructions to serge and can't see it in any manuals.

Hello, Ellen -

If you do not already own the Singer Overcast Foot for your Singer 5511 Scholastic machine, you will need that. Plus, you will need serger needles.

If you reside in the USA, you can find the Overcast Foot and serger needles here:
SingerOnline.com
Overcast Foot:
https://www.singeronline.com/siovfo0.html
Singer Serger Needles:
https://www.singeronline.com/sisene10pa.html

I was hoping to find a video tutorial online for you, but no luck. I did find written instructions with photos regarding using a sewing machine overcast stitch as a serger. This is the link:
https://doitbetteryourself.club/how-to-overcast-stitch/

Apparently, the Singer 5511 Scholastic isn't a true serger.

Best wishes.

You have a sewing machine, not a serger. They are two separate machines.

Which one is the best for Embroidery Singer XL 420 or Singer SEQs 6000?

Difficult to advise since we really don't know your criteria.

SEQS 6000 FUTURA QUARTET
FWIW, I would be hesitant to purchase a machine with so many functions, ie sewing, embroidery, serging. Seems like a lot of things to go wrong.

XL 420 FUTURA

Your best bet is to do a lot of research on the internet. Read the reviews from people who have purchased these machines. Then go talk to a Singer specialist. Only when you have gathered as much information as you can are you able to make an educated decision.
