Battle Through the Heavens: He marries Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate the marriage!

Chapter 18 Little Fairy Doctor is my friend, and I'm determined to take care of this!

Little Fairy Doctor's pretty face was pale. She first looked at Mu Li with a hint of fear, then turned her purple eyes to Gu Fei.

Her eyes were full of surprise, and a hint of barely perceptible panic.

[Little Fairy Doctor is flustered; her emotion value increases by 100.]

She stood there, somewhat at a loss.

Suddenly, two people appeared in succession, and Little Fairy Doctor didn't know what to do.

After all, Gu Fei gave her a more reliable feeling. Little Fairy Doctor looked at him helplessly, as if hoping that Gu Fei could give an explanation.

Otherwise, why would two people suddenly appear behind her?

"Little Fairy Doctor, I saw this person sneaking around behind you just now, and I was worried that he might have some ulterior motive, so I followed him."

Gu Fei naturally had no guilty conscience, after all, he had not done anything shameful. Instead, he took the initiative and pinned a bad intention on Mu Li.

[Muli experiences anger; his emotion value increases by 10.]

Mu Li, who had been trying to argue his way out of it, glared at Gu Fei with a mixture of surprise and anger.

But he didn't dare to break ties with Gu Fei now.

After all, Mu Li is no fool for being able to become the young leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.

He could certainly tell from the clues that this alchemist was no ordinary person when Boss Yao was selecting mercenaries.

Moreover, having been a mercenary for many years, his most basic and essential skill is to be vigilant about his surroundings at all times.

Although he had just focused all his attention on tracking Little Fairy Doctor, remaining vigilant was already an instinctive reaction of his body.

If Gu Fei had really followed him all the way, there was no way he wouldn't have noticed!

Therefore, this means that Gu Fei either possesses extremely high strength or has a very powerful method of concealing his aura.

Therefore, he could only glare angrily at Gu Fei, but dared not immediately launch an attack.

Little Fairy Doctor had complete trust in Gu Fei; after all, how could such a powerful alchemist deceive her?

[Little Fairy Doctor feels gratitude, emotion value increases by 100]

She felt deeply grateful to Gu Fei, but at the same time, she became even more wary of Mu Li.

Mu Li suddenly started following her without any reason, and she didn't want to be discovered...

Could it be that my secret has been exposed?

Little Fairy Doctor shook her head. She had hidden herself so well that no one around her had noticed. How could a mere Mu Li possibly know?

To confirm her suspicions, Little Fairy Doctor was unwilling to let the matter rest and pretend that nothing had happened.

"Muli, why are you following me?"

Little Fairy Doctor looked at Mu Li and questioned him loudly.

The forest was dense and oppressive, with no sunlight able to penetrate, so Little Fairy Doctor couldn't see the expression on Mu Li's face.

He chuckled twice in a sinister tone and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Hehe, I'll just say it straight, there should be treasure down there!"

Seeing that Little Fairy Doctor was relentless, and since things had come to this point, Mu Li simply stopped pretending and told her the whole story.

Little Fairy Doctor swayed, utterly incredulous, her beautiful eyes filled with obvious shock and confusion.

"I only told my assistant, Liffie, about this."

Her beautiful purple eyes were then filled with anger and sadness at being betrayed.

"You...you bribed her?"

Even someone as gentle and kind as Little Fairy Doctor isn't completely without a temper.

Lifei was not only her friend, but also her confidante from a young age. Little Fairy Doctor had shared many of her thoughts and secrets with Lifei.

But little did she expect that Mu Li would find out about what was known only to heaven, earth, her, and Li Fei.

Besides Liffie, who else could it be?

Muli laughed a few times and nodded in agreement.

He most enjoyed seeing the shocked and angry expressions on people's faces after they learned they had been betrayed by their best friends.

Little Fairy Doctor's emotions fluctuate too much, and her talent and strength do not lie in combat, so she is not to be feared.

As for the remaining one—

Mu Li turned to look at Gu Fei.

He smiled and said, "Young master, why not join my Wolf Head Mercenary Group in searching for treasure?"

He stared at Gu Fei's still calm and composed face, and said meaningfully, word by word, "When the time comes, the treasure will be split fifty-fifty."

Anyone who came out with Little Fairy Doctor, whether they were an alchemist, a servant of Wan Yao Zhai, or even Boss Yao, would probably have agreed without hesitation.

After all, this was a great opportunity to cooperate with the strongest mercenary group in Qingshan Town to share the treasure, and Mu Li was even willing to give up some benefits.

Given his personality, it would be good enough if he didn't kill the person and take everything for himself. The fact that he's willing to give up half to Gu Fei is like a windfall.

Muli slowly picked at his ear and gently blew on his fingertip.

"how?"

When faced with Mu Li's invitation, Gu Fei first pretended to be interested.

He deliberately feigned hesitation, and sure enough, he saw Mu Li unconsciously grin.

[Muli experiences a sense of pride, increasing his mood by 10.]

Gu Fei raised an eyebrow.

It's probably a trap.

He didn't believe Muli was such a generous person. He suspected that after they went to the treasure together, Muli killed him and dumped his body down there, then came up alone.

Faced with Mu Li's invitation and his extremely confident gaze, Gu Fei pretended to nod in agreement.

But just as Mu Li's lips were about to curl into a smile that seemed to leap off his cheek, his expression changed.

He refused with absolute certainty, saying, "Someone like you doesn't deserve to cooperate with me!"

[Muli experiences anger; his emotion value increases by 10.]

"What did you say?"

Anger flared in Muli's eyes as he began to move his body, the sound of bones grinding together echoing from time to time.

Seeing Gu Fei's resolute attitude, Little Fairy Doctor stared at him intently, her emotions quite complex.

[Little Fairy Doctor is moved, her emotion value increases by 80]

[Little Fairy Doctor develops dependency emotions, emotion value increases by 80]

Seeing that Gu Fei was unwilling to cooperate, Mu Li was too lazy to waste any more time.

He grinned maliciously, revealing his true, filthy nature: "Since you're unwilling to cooperate, then please don't try to stop me..."

His gloomy gaze fell on Little Fairy Doctor, carrying a faint killing intent.

But then he was caught off guard by Gu Fei's tactless remarks.

"Little Fairy Doctor is my friend, and I'm determined to handle this matter!"

Ancient flying path.

[Little Fairy Doctor is moved, her emotion value increases by 80]

Mu Li looked at him with considerable surprise, wondering if the kid was genuinely afraid of death or just pretending.

He stopped wasting words and directly threatened Gu Fei, while also making a move with his hands.

"Since that's the case, then don't blame me. Even if you have a powerful background, dying silently in the Monster Mountain Range won't raise any suspicion about my Wolf Head Mercenary Group!"

A dark glint flashed in Mu Li's eyes as he silently watched the oblivious Gu Fei, a murderous intent stirring within him.

Gu Fei wasn't in a hurry to leave. After all, with his current strength, he probably couldn't find an opponent not only in the entire Qingshan Town, but also in the entire Jia Ma Empire.

Little Fairy Doctor had already hidden behind him.

He stood before Little Fairy Doctor, his tall figure seeming to shield her from all harm.

Little Fairy Doctor couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

Under Mu Li's gloomy gaze, a dozen mercenaries emerged from the dense forest in no time; Gu Fei had already spotted them.
