This little guy in front of her seemed to be growing at a speed that caught her off guard. The faint, warm breath of the young man wafted over, making Ya Fei's face even more flushed. Her beautiful eyes gently glanced at Xiao Yan, but she couldn't muster any anger.
"Every time I meet you, I get teased by you, little guy."
Looking at the young man's fervent yet not overly greedy, still clear eyes, Ya Fei forcefully suppressed the stirring in her heart.
She took a deep breath, and only after Xiao Yan's chest was pressed against something soft did she exhale a long breath.
"Tell me, you little pervert, what kind of reward do you want? I can't give you anything too excessive."
"Hehe, I, Xiao Yan, am not one of those guys dominated by their lower bodies, but I'm not a pure gentleman either."
Looking at Ya Fei's beautiful face, flushed like a peach blossom, Xiao Yan was far more composed than Ya Fei. He gently patted his face, and then, without waiting for Ya Fei to react, he leaned forward proactively.
"You, you guy!"
Seeing Xiao Yan so bold, Ya Fei's beautiful eyes showed a hint of annoyance.
But thinking about all the help he had given her these days, especially remembering those clear eyes, as if possessed, she extended her rose-like, alluring red lips and gently pecked Xiao Yan's face.
"Hey, didn't you eat?"
Just as she thought she was free, she heard Xiao Yan's dissatisfied grumble.
"You little rascal, you're so young and already learning bad things. Those old perverts' tricks are endless."
As if possessed, Ya Fei even overlooked Xiao Yan's strength from just now. Indignantly, she extended her slender, jade-like fingers and pinched Xiao Yan's ear. Her pretty face flushed crimson as she rolled her eyes at him, looking even more charming at that moment.
Being treated this way by Ya Fei, Xiao Yan wasn't angry. He chuckled, took her slender, jade-like hand from his ear, and subtly traced her palm before temporarily ending their playful interaction.
Xiao Yan walked to the fallen burly man, extended his hand, and slapped him across the face. Then, under Ya Fei's slightly astonished gaze, the burly man trembled all over. A moment later, he opened his eyes, filled with pain and confusion.
However, upon seeing the smiling young man's face in front of him, a look of sudden terror appeared on the burly man's face. He trembled slightly as he looked at Xiao Yan, and his voice became even more panicked.
"M-my lord, please spare my life, my lord!"
Looking at the young man's gentle face with terror in his eyes, the burly man's heart was filled with fear.
Others might have thought that Xiao Yan's ability to silently take down a Dou Shi was due to the methods of some powerful expert behind him, but only this burly Dou Shi, who had experienced it firsthand, knew what he had truly faced.
Just by being looked at by Xiao Yan, he felt his Soul being pierced by a long spear. That terrifying pain far exceeded the suffering caused by physical injury.
It was precisely because of this that he directly fainted from the pain.
He was almost certain that the terrifying attack, which could instantly cause such excruciating pain that one would faint, originated from this young man whose small face still carried a hint of childishness.
Such terrifying methods being used by such a young, even childlike, young man was truly unsettling.
"I won't kill you."
Xiao Yan's gaze swept over the burly man's panicked face, and he gently shook his head.
He was not a bloodthirsty person. If unnecessary, he indeed preferred to use gentler methods to resolve problems.
Of course, all of this was predicated on the other party not posing a threat to him and not making him feel too disgusted. Otherwise, Xiao Yan was not a benevolent person either.
In his previous life, to be able to rise from obscurity to the Peak of Dou Qi Continent and even Major Thousand Worlds, he certainly didn't rely on compassion.
That was an iron-blooded reputation built through countless battles and countless massacres.
"Take your master away, and by the way, tell those idiots from the Mittel Family that if they want to make enemies with a group of high-level Alchemists, they can boldly send people to Utan City.
Also, for business here in Utan City, I only recognize Ya Fei. If someone else takes over, then there's no need for cooperation."
Although Xiao Yan's second sentence was calm and relaxed, it caused Ya Fei and the burly Dou Shi beside him to stiffen to varying degrees.
"You, you are that Genius from the Xiao Family in Utan City, Xiao Yan!"
Looking at the young man's handsome, tender face, the burly man finally understood who Lei Le had offended.
Since this year, the name of Xiao Yan of Utan City had already spread beyond Utan City, continuously propagating throughout the Gama Empire, eventually reaching the Gama Empire.
Becoming a Dou Master at eleven years old had already spread Xiao Yan's name to the ears of many large Families, causing many to marvel and anticipate the reappearance of a Dou Emperor expert in the Gama Empire.
But becoming an Alchemist at twelve years old directly shocked the entire Gama Empire. After all, even with the Gama Empire's rather long history, it was still difficult to find a twelve-year-old Alchemist in that long river of history.
Such talent had already far surpassed Dan Wang Gu He.
In addition, some time ago, the Foundation Establishment Liquid also caused quite a stir in the Empire, after all, in this Gama Empire, Medicinal Pills that could promote Cultivation at the Dou Qi stage were simply too rare.
And behind this, there was also Xiao Yan's presence. Many even vaguely speculated whether there was an Alchemist even more powerful than Gu He standing behind Xiao Yan.
It was this young man in front of them. Although he had not yet left Utan City, his name had already silently spread throughout the entire Gama Empire.
"Yes, my lord, I will definitely deliver your message!"
Compared to the Xiao Yan in everyone's ears, this burly Dou Shi had seen the true Xiao Yan with his own eyes, and he was even horrified by the opponent's terrifying methods. His reverence for Xiao Yan had risen to an extremely terrifying level.
As he spoke, he frantically grabbed the unconscious Lei Le beside him, pushed open the door in a very disheveled manner, and then darted outside.
Looking at the burly man's departing back and Lei Le in his hand, a hint of coldness flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes.
A guy like Lei Le was probably not much cleaner than Liu Xi. If he didn't want to expose too many of his trump cards right now, and didn't want to bring too much trouble to Ya Fei, this guy would probably have turned into a pile of ashes today.
However, not getting rid of him now didn't mean Xiao Yan would let him go. After all, such people made Xiao Yan quite disgusted.
Once Hai Bodong was brought back in the future, Xiao Yan wouldn't even need to make a move against Lei Le.
Just as he was about to bid farewell to Ya Fei, Xiao Yan turned his head and saw her beautiful eyes fixed on him, as if a special light was flickering within them.
"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen a man as handsome as this young master before?"
His thoughts shifted, and a few hints of unruly, mischievous smiles appeared at the corner of Xiao Yan's mouth. He then saw Ya Fei actually purse her red lips and nod with a smile.
"I found you to be very handsome today, indeed."
