Fights Break Sphere: Purple Thunder Emperor

Chapter 68 Little Girl
Stone desert city.

It is a city located in the desert. Compared with the cities within the empire, it is more simple and heavy.

The ochre-colored city walls have been eroded by wind and sand for many years, and look mottled and desolate, full of traces of time.

At this time, there were two people standing at the city gate, one old and one young.

The old man was dressed in plain blue clothes, his aged face was simple and calm, and a large scar made him look a little hideous. The young man was dressed in a black robe, with a handsome face, dignified eyes and a dull expression.

"Xiao Bai, what should we do next?"

Hai Bodong looked at Xiao Bai with his cloudy eyes. Although he was the one who drew the map, he only marked an approximate place.

The Tagor Desert is too vast, and they don't know the exact location. Without special means, it would take them an unknown amount of time to find the place just by the two of them.

"Let's find an inn to stay in first. We'll go to the direction you marked tomorrow and have a look!"

Xiao Bai pondered for a moment, then said, this thing can't be rushed. If the strange fire was so easy to find, it wouldn't be his turn to get it for so many years.

As for Xiao Ding and Xiao Li from the Motie Mercenary Group in the city, he was not planning to look for them.

Although the original novel does not know why the two of them came out to explore the world, but in this time and space, Xiao Bai knows very well why the two of them came out, and it was entirely his doing.

Ever since Xiao Yan was beaten by him, the two men came to Xiao Bai angrily to seek revenge for their brother.

The two people have complementary personalities, one is reckless and fierce, the other is insidious and cunning.

A man who appears to be righteous and challenges Xiao Bai, but actually just wants to beat him up.

The other was even more ruthless, secretly trying to trip him up, saying that he was arrogant and domineering and looked down on everyone in the family.

But after all, he is still too young, and his methods seem too immature to Xiao Bai.

He didn't suffer any loss, he just played with them out of boredom. However, these two were stubborn, if the first time didn't work they would try a second time. Xiao Bai was getting annoyed by them.

Finally, they could no longer tolerate it, and in front of everyone in the Xiao family, the director staged a drama in which the son of the Xiao family head could not tolerate those who were not of Xiao family blood. This almost caused the Xiao family and those priests and guards to become alienated and seriously damaged their vitality.

In the end, Xiao Zhan and the family elders had no choice but to send the two men out of the family, one to avoid the limelight, and the other to calm the public anger.

However, they agreed to go back after a few months, but these two never went back after they came out, and it has been almost three years now!

Xiao Bai recalled the past, remembering that Xiao Li had found him before he left, and said some harsh words to him with bloodshot eyes. He couldn't help but shook his head, stroking his chin, and thought to himself:

"Tsk tsk. I wonder if these two have made any progress in all these years!"

Walking on the streets of Shimo City, one can only occasionally see a bit of stone blue on the ground that was originally paved with bluestone, and it is covered with a thick layer of yellow sand.

The passers-by all have a sturdy aura, and there is a faint smell of blood. These mercenaries have all been on the edge of a knife and seen blood. Compared with the mercenaries in Qingshan Town, the ones here feel more powerful.

"Ah!" A faint cry came into Xiao Bai's ears.

Then there was a burst of angry curses:
"Get out of here! You bastard! You filthy blood, you blind little bastard, how dare you block my way!"

Xiao Bai looked in the direction of the sound and saw not far away, a big man with a naked upper body, scars all over his body and a face full of flesh, was using his big palm like a palm leaf fan to pick up a little girl with a face full of fear, like a chicken, and casually throwing her to the side of the road.

Seeing that the little girl's head was about to hit a stone step not far from her feet, Xiao Bai moved sideways two steps, held her up, and gently put her down. The little girl's eyes were still filled with fear. Seeing that she didn't fall heavily to the ground this time, but felt someone holding her up, she was a little curious in her panic. She couldn't help but glance at the black-robed man beside her, and said timidly in a barely perceptible voice:

"Thank you!"

After saying that, looking at the disgusted eyes around him and the big man who was cursing, he couldn't help but squat down, hug his knees with his hands, bury his little head between his legs, and wait for the usual beating.

Looking around at the disgusted and fearful eyes of the people around him, and then looking at the little girl squatting next to him, her thin body trembling constantly, Xiao Bai vaguely guessed her identity.

"Haha~, it's this dirty little thing again, a cursed sinner, how dare he still live in this world!"

"That's right! I heard that her mother was killed by her because of the curse half a year ago. She actually dared to run away. Why not find a deserted place to end her life? She is really hurting others and herself!"

"I'm curious about how she survived these past six months. No one in Shimo City should be willing to use her!"

"I heard that Xue Lan from the Desert Iron Mercenary Group took pity on her and asked her to do sewing and wash clothes, giving her a few copper coins every time. Tsk tsk, this Xue Lan is not afraid of getting dirty! She's not afraid of being killed by her either!"

"What a pity! Xue Lan is so sexy. It would be such a pity if she was killed like this! If she were me... Hehehehe!"

The burly man who was cursing seemed to be still unsatisfied and was about to walk up and continue beating the little girl.

Xiao Bai heard the discussions around him and looked down at the little girl who was squatting with her knees hugged and her head buried in her chest, trembling constantly. Xiao Bai sighed with a bit of pity.

Just now he noticed that the little girl's movements were so skillful and distressing, almost a subconscious reaction, which meant that this was definitely not the first time this had happened.

"Get out!" A shout mixed with soul power resounded throughout the street.

The crowd who were watching and talking couldn't help but feel a little dizzy when they heard the voice, and looked at the white-haired, black-robed young man who made the voice with a little fear.

"Anyone who remains here within three breaths will die!"

Hearing this murderous voice, everyone's breathing stagnated and their eyes were filled with fear. What kind of cultivation was this? It was a bit too much for them to bear just a shout.

These mercenaries who have been walking on the edge of death for years have an excellent sense of danger. They know they can't afford to offend, so they scatter like birds and beasts in an instant, wishing they had two more legs.

"Haha~ It seems there are still people who are not afraid of death and are still staying here. Since you want to die, I will grant your wish!"

Xiao Bai sneered and looked at the big man who was walking towards the little girl.

The big man stood there motionless, his originally ferocious face now extremely pale, and he felt like crying but had no tears. It was not that he didn't want to leave, but he just couldn't move!

Just when the young man in black in front of him gave him three breaths to leave, he wanted to turn around and leave, but suddenly, it was as if some pressure was suppressing him, and he couldn't move at all.

Xiao Bai ignored him for the time being and looked down at the little girl. He saw that she was secretly raising her little head and looking around carefully, like a frightened deer.

He leaned over and whispered, "Get up! No one can hit you while I'm here!"

Hearing this, the little girl looked at him timidly. Seeing that although his face looked a little stern, his eyes were smiling and he spoke softly, she immediately relaxed a little and stood up.

Only then did Xiao Bai realize that she was holding a paper bag tightly in her arms, with some yellow sand at the opening of the bag, as if she was holding something precious.
