Chapter 17 Green Mountain Town, Little Fairy Doctor!
Chapter 17 Green Mountain Town, Little Fairy Doctor!
Two days later, Xiao Ze came out of the room.
He was preparing to go to the back mountain to cultivate when a voice suddenly rang in his mind.
[Detection indicates that Xiao Yan cultivated for over ten hours throughout the night.]
The system will provide random feedback.
[Feedback is being generated, please wait.]
Xiao Ze stopped and looked at the system panel in front of him.
Xiao Yan has indeed been cultivating very diligently these past few days. After taking the Qi Gathering Pill given to him, he has been cultivating until late at night almost every day.
Xiao Ze could sense that Xiao Yan's strength was steadily improving.
[The newly created host has been granted the Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil.]
[The Azure Serpent's Three-Flower Pupil can control snake-type magical beasts, possessing absolute suppressive power over them.]
Xiao Ze's eyes lit up slightly.
The Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupil is a real treasure.
In the world of Battle Through the Heavens, there are numerous snake-type magical beasts, many of which are extremely powerful.
With the Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupil, Xiao Ze could control these magical beasts and make them work for him.
Xiao Ze smiled with satisfaction.
Just as he was about to continue walking towards the back of the mountain, a new notification popped up on the system panel.
[The system has issued a new mission: Go to the Imperial Capital Headquarters of the Mittel Auction House and bid for a high-level Xuan-rank fire-attribute cultivation technique.]
[The host will receive double the reward upon completion of the task.]
[This technique can help Xiao Yan improve his strength. Please complete it as soon as possible.]
Xiao Ze frowned slightly as he looked at the system's notification.
The headquarters of the Mittel Auction House in the capital city is not close to Utan City.
Xiao Ze is only a one-star Dou Ling and cannot yet transform his Dou Qi into wings. Walking there would be too much of a waste of time, and if he encounters any trouble along the way, it would take even longer.
After pondering for a moment, Xiao Ze came up with an idea.
Xiao Ze needs a flying combat skill.
In the world of Battle Through the Heavens, besides transforming battle qi into wings, there is another thing that allows people to fly. Flying combat skills do not require the strength of a Battle King; as long as you learn them, you can fly in the air.
The most famous flying combat technique is the Purple Cloud Wings, which takes place in the Monster Mountain Range.
Xiao Ze snapped out of his thoughts and turned to walk towards the Xiao family gate.
As soon as Xiao Ze stepped out of the gate of the Xiao family mansion, a guard came to greet him.
"Fourth Young Master, are you going out?"
"Okay." Xiao Ze nodded. "If anyone looks for me, just say I'm out on business and will be back in a few days."
"Yes," the guard replied.
Xiao Ze left the Xiao family without saying anything more.
He left Wutan City and headed towards Qingshan Town.
Qingshan Town is not too far east of Wutan City; at Xiao Ze's current speed, it would only take him half a day to get there.
Green Mountain Town is the closest town to the Monster Mountain Range.
The town was small but bustling with activity, filled with mercenaries. Some had just returned from the Monster Mountain Range with injuries, while others were preparing to head into the mountains, their faces beaming with excitement.
The streets were lined with stalls selling all sorts of things: monster pelts, teeth, claws, and some low-level medicinal herbs.
Xiao Ze walked into Qingshan Town, his gaze sweeping across the streets.
Just as he was about to ask someone for directions, a commotion suddenly broke out ahead.
"Little Fairy Doctor, our guild leader requests your presence. You'd better cooperate obediently."
I said I wasn't going.
"Not going? Our leader is the leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group. You're just a young girl, you can't afford to offend him."
"If you keep doing this, I'm going to call for help."
"Call for help? Look around, who dares to interfere with the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's affairs?"
Xiao Ze's brow twitched slightly. Wolf Head Mercenary Group.
Xiao Ze vaguely remembered the name. In the original owner's memories, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group was the largest mercenary group in Qingshan Town and was quite powerful.
The leader, Mu She, is a powerful warrior at the Dou Shi level. He is a tyrant in the Qingshan Town area, and no one dares to mess with him.
Xiao Ze pushed through the crowd and walked over.
Several mercenaries were surrounding a young girl, their expressions unfriendly.
The girl was wearing a white dress, with a beautiful face and a gentle temperament.
The girl frowned slightly as she looked at the mercenaries in front of her, a hint of disgust in her eyes.
This is Little Fairy Doctor; Xiao Ze recognized her at a glance.
In the original owner's memories, Little Fairy Doctor was a physician in Qingshan Town who was skilled at preparing poisons and antidotes. She had a good reputation in Qingshan Town, and many mercenaries sought her out for treatment.
"I'm telling you again, I'm not going," Little Fairy Doctor said.
"That's not up to you," the leading mercenary said coldly. "It's your good fortune that our young leader has taken a liking to you."
"Just don't be ungrateful," another mercenary said.
"Do you know who our young commander is? Muli, it's your good fortune to have him take a liking to you."
"If you don't go, we'll have to resort to force."
Several mercenaries took a step closer to Little Fairy Doctor.
Little Fairy Doctor's expression changed slightly, and she took a step back.
Little Fairy Doctor gripped the cloth bag at her waist, which contained the poisons she had concocted.
But she was a weak woman facing several mercenaries at the level of fighters. She didn't have time to use poison, and even if she did, she might not be able to take them all down.
The lead mercenary reached out and grabbed at Little Fairy Doctor.
The hand stopped in mid-air before it could even touch Little Fairy Doctor.
A hand gripped the mercenary's wrist.
The mercenary turned around and saw a boy standing beside him.
The boy's face was calm and his eyes were indifferent; he looked at the mercenary as if he were an ant.
"Who are you?" the mercenary asked coldly.
"Get lost," Xiao Ze said.
The mercenary's face darkened. "Kid, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. Our Wolf Head Mercenary Group's affairs are none of your concern. If you know what's good for you, get lost or don't blame us for being impolite."
Xiao Ze didn't speak, but tightened his grip slightly.
A crack, the sound of bone breaking was clearly audible.
The mercenary screamed, his voice trembling.
The mercenary's wrist was bent at an odd angle, clearly indicating it was broken.
The other mercenaries' expressions changed, and they all pounced on Xiao Ze at the same time.
"court death!"
"Dare to touch anyone from our Wolf Head Mercenary Group!"
"Destroy him!"
Several mercenaries simultaneously attacked Xiao Ze with both fists and feet.
Xiao Ze's expression remained unchanged as he watched them rush towards him.
Xiao Ze raised his hand and struck out with a palm, sending the mercenary at the forefront flying backward and crashing to the ground, where he lay motionless.
The second, third, and fourth slaps rang out almost simultaneously.
All the mercenaries lay on the ground, none of them able to get up; some had blood trickling from their mouths, while others had simply passed out.
The onlookers were all stunned.
They hadn't expected this seemingly young boy to be so strong.
Those mercenaries were all at the Fighter level, considered quite skilled in Qingshan Town, but they couldn't even withstand a single move from the young man.
The leading mercenary clutched his wrist, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Xiao Ze.
"You...you..." The mercenary's body trembled and his lips trembled.
Xiao Ze looked at the mercenary and said calmly, "Aren't you going to get lost?"
The mercenary gritted his teeth and scrambled backward.
The other mercenaries struggled to their feet, helping each other along, and fled the scene in a disheveled state.
They ran as fast as they could, afraid that Xiao Ze would change his mind, and didn't even have the courage to look back.
