"It's time to go back and see my elder brother and the second brother. I wonder if that little fellow Qinglin has been training well."

At the junction of the desert and the land, there are occasionally a few green grass leaves dotted there. Although the dots are quite rare, they are undoubtedly much more pleasing to the eye than the monotonous golden sand in the desert.

Since this place is close to the edge of the desert, you can occasionally see pedestrians passing by and mercenary teams returning from hunting monsters in the desert.

At the junction of the desert and the land, a black-robed figure was walking slowly with a huge black key on his back, and an old man wearing a straw hat followed him.

Such a strange combination made passers-by involuntarily take a few more glances.

This old and young duo was none other than Xiao Yan and Hai Bodong. Ever since Hai Bodong noticed the horrifying noise caused by Xiao Yan's taming of the strange fire that day, the old man, who was once the Ice Emperor, had completely put aside his little thoughts and assisted Xiao Yan wholeheartedly.

Although Han Li concealed his aura when absorbing the strange fire, the high temperature that was enough to evaporate an entire mountain in a short period of time when he first released the strange fire naturally could not be hidden from him.

Hai Bodong is not stupid as he was able to cultivate to the Douhuang level. After witnessing Xiao Yan's various mysterious methods, he has decided to cling to this thigh.

"Perhaps, I will really have a chance to reach the legendary Dou Zong realm in this life," Hai Bodong said secretly.

Unlike the cautiousness they showed when they entered the desert, the two were much more relaxed after leaving the Tagor Desert. They used flying many times along the way. In this way, in just half a day, Xiao Yan and Hai Bodong reached their destination.

As the blazing sun in the sky gradually set in the west, the outline of a city several sizes smaller than Mo City finally appeared slowly at the end of the sight.

Two streams of light, like two meteors in the dark sky, flew directly into the Stone Desert City from above.

"Xuan-level skills are indeed not comparable to Huang-level skills."

Landing on a wall pier, Xiao Yan's face was not visible, and he felt a little emotional in his heart.

If it were in the past, he would have to rest several times and swallow a lot of energy-recovering pills while flying like this. But now, he just had a little shortness of breath.

"Let's go, Ebi."

Xiao Yan jumped off the wall, landed lightly on the ground, and said casually.

Hai Bodong nodded, followed Xiao Yan, turned a few streets, and slowly moved towards the location of the Motie Mercenary Group.

Walking in the city, Xiao Yan glanced at the street where the mercenaries were supposed to gather, but his brows were slightly furrowed. For some reason, he always felt that the street seemed to have become much quieter...

"Something seems wrong. Why are there so few people?"

Xiao Yan muttered inwardly with some doubt, narrowed his eyes slightly, and slowly crossed the street with his chin raised. In front of him was the headquarters of the Motie Mercenary Group.

In the past, this place was bustling with people and extremely lively, but now it is in a mess, and the surrounding shops have closed early, making it look quite desolate.

"problem occurs?"

Xiao Yan still kept smiling, but his eyes had turned cold. He reached behind him and touched the hilt of the Black Flame Sword, then quickly walked to the end of the street. Outside the gate, the mercenary who was originally responsible for guarding the gate was gone. The gate was closed, and there was dried blood on it.

A cold light flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes, and his soul swept across the yard. He found that two figures holding spears were squatting behind the door, ready to launch a sneak attack at any time.

Xiao Yan recognized the auras of those two people. He had seen them before under his eldest brother's command!

They are still here, so elder brother and the others should be fine. Xiao Yan felt a little relieved.

Xiao Yan took his hand off the hilt, exchanged a glance with Hai Bodong, took a few steps back, moved his feet slightly, jumped several meters high, and landed lightly in the courtyard.

Looking at the two wounded mercenaries with their backs to him, Xiao Yan said in a deep voice:

"I'm back, what happened?"

When the two heard this, they shuddered violently and turned around with murderous eyes.

But when he saw the black-robed figure falling into the courtyard, his original murderous intent turned into surprise:

"Master Xiao Yan?"

Xiao Yan nodded and said in a deep voice:

"It's me. What happened while I was away?"

The two looked at each other, and one of them smiled bitterly and said:

"Master Xiao Yan, you may not know that a few nights ago, our Motie Mercenary Group was attacked by two strange great fighters for unknown reasons."

"Although the brothers fought hard, they were no match for the Great Fighter. Even the leader and deputy leader, whose strength had greatly increased, were injured."

"At the last moment, the captain used an extremely powerful fighting skill to injure one of the great fighting masters. The movement was also noticed by other people in the city. The two men became afraid and retreated."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan's face turned cold, and he quickly walked towards the courtyard, saying casually: "There is a friend of mine outside the door, please invite him in."

After saying that, he walked straight into the yard as if he was familiar with the route, and soon arrived at the main house. From a distance, he could smell a bloody smell.

Many people were busy, running around, carrying basins of water and towels. Xiao Yan spotted a small figure among them with his sharp eyes.

"Qinglin." He called softly, and saw a little girl suddenly raised her head, with sweat oozing from her forehead. After seeing Xiao Yan, a look of surprise appeared in her eyes.

"Teacher, you are back!"

Qinglin's cry attracted the attention of many people. Following their line of sight, a man in a black robe carrying a heavy sword came into view.

Suddenly, there was some commotion among the crowd.

"Qinglin, come find me when you're done. I'm going to go see my two brothers first."

Xiao Yan nodded and said.

According to his observation, Qinglin's aura has improved a lot now, reaching the level of a five or six star fighter, which is already quite good.

"is teacher!"

In the hall.

A figure with an arm in a cast and a bandage wrapped around his neck sat in the main seat.

This person was none other than Xiao Li, and on the other side was Xiao Ding, whose aura had weakened a lot.

Xiao Yan walked into the hall and saw the two of them. His pupils shrank slightly, and then a surge of anger rushed into his heart. He hadn't been so angry for a long time.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xiao Yan sat down and asked without hesitation:

"Big brother, second brother, who did this?"

"Could it be someone from the Yunlan Sect who did this?"

Xiao Yan thought of the leader of the Yunlan Sect who appeared in the Tager Desert, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were stunned at first, then looked at each other, and the latter said with a wry smile:

"Xiao Yanzi, it shouldn't be someone from the Yunlan Sect who did this."

Under Xiao Yan's cold gaze, he continued:

"Although I have never seen them in Shimo City, when they attacked, it was more like they were looking for someone, and they did not kill us right away."

At this moment, Xiao Ding interrupted Xiao Li and said:

"They are looking for Qinglin!"

"When we were struggling, the mysterious master held back and asked me if I had a little girl who was half-Snake-human."

At this point, Xiao Ding smiled and said with some relief:

"Thanks to this, I had the opportunity to use the talisman left by Xiao Yanzi to injure one of them."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, but the cold light in his eyes did not dissipate.

He thought for a while, rubbed the storage ring lightly with his fingers, and a small jade bottle appeared in Xiao Yan's hand. He flicked his fingers, and the jade bottle fell steadily on the table in front of the Xiao brothers without making any sound.

"This is the best healing medicine. After you two brothers take it, your injuries will recover within three days. I will stay here during this time."

"I want to see who dares to attack us!"

A few days later, in a room at the base of the Motie Mercenary Group.

Xiao Yan sat cross-legged on the bed, forming seals with his hands. With the rhythm of his breathing, the energy of heaven and earth around him was peeled off like silk from a cocoon and absorbed into Xiao Yan's body.

After letting out a long breath, Xiao Yan opened his eyes, ending a day of training.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"come in."

Xiao Yan said calmly.

The person who came was Qinglin.

"teacher!"

After seeing Xiao Yan, Qing Lin performed the etiquette of a disciple and stood respectfully in front of Xiao Yan.

"Show us the results of your practice."

Xiao Yan said softly.

Qinglin did as she was told. As she formed seals, three small green dots slowly lit up in her eyes, and her hair and clothes moved without wind.

Judging from his aura, he is at the peak of a six-star fighter!

"Yes, but the operation of the fighting spirit here is a bit obscure."

About half an hour later, after guiding Qing Lin in his training, Xiao Yan sent him away, then stroked his sleeves with a look of helplessness on his face.

"Okay, okay, don't worry, come out."

A flash of purple light suddenly shot out from Xiao Yan's sleeve and landed on the bed. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a small snake about two inches long.

During these few days, Xiao Yan also signed a blood contract with it with the help of Han Li. The process was very smooth. He just paid some things, and the young Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python gladly accepted it.

At this moment, it was staring closely at the storage ring on Xiao Yan's finger. It raised its head and let out a few soft hisses at Xiao Yan as if it was acting like a spoiled child.

"Alright, alright." Xiao Yan stroked the storage ring with some pain, and a small jade bottle suddenly appeared in his hand.

Seeing this, the little snake immediately swam to Xiao Yan's hand and stared at the bottle. Xiao Yan pulled out the cork reluctantly, and a stream of pure fire energy suddenly burst out from the bottle.

This thing is the accompanying purple crystal source!

Xiao Yan held the small jade stick and inserted it deep into it, touched a few points, and flicked it out gently. The little snake suddenly opened its mouth, spit out its tongue, and swallowed up all the companion purple crystal source flicked out by Xiao Yan without leaving a drop.

As if it was full, the little snake suddenly swam around on the bed, curled up in the quilt, coiled up its body and closed its eyes.

"This little guy is such a eater." Xiao Yan couldn't help but complain: "Teacher, do you have any solution?"

Han Li laughed and said, "Of course. When you return to the big city to replenish some medicinal materials, I will teach you how to make the Soul-Feeding Pills."

That night, Xiao Yan suddenly opened his eyes while lying on his bed, and a strange breath quietly broke into the base of the Motie Mercenary Group.

"Is it finally here?"

Xiao Yan's face turned cold. He gently opened the window, stepped lightly, and flew towards the direction of the breath like a big bird.
