"Mr. Han, are you leaving today?"
Xiao Ding and Xiao Li came to see him off.
Han Feng nodded.
"It's about time. In a few days, we will go to the Black-Corner Region to send Junior Brother to the academy."
Xiao Ding had heard of the dangers of the Black-Corner Region, but with Han Feng escorting him, there should be no major problems.
"In that case, we entrust Little Yan to Mr. Han."
A moment later, the group left the Desert Metal Mercenary Company.
Xiao Yan waved vigorously behind him. Xiao Ding and Xiao Li stood in front of the main gate, watching their third brother leave.
"The Sand Mercenary Company seems to have started moving recently. It's good that Third Brother has left. We can go all out."
Xiao Ding looked at the disappearing figure, his expression becoming profound.
"Big brother, why didn't we ask Mr. Han for help?" Xiao Li asked.
He was impatient and spoke his mind.
Since Han Feng was Xiao Yan's senior brother, he would definitely have agreed if asked.
Xiao Ding shook his head.
"We invited Mr. Han as a guest. If we ask the guest to take action, wouldn't it make our Desert Metal Mercenary Company look incompetent?"
"Second brother, are you afraid?"
"Are you kidding? I'm a seven-star Dou Master now!"
Xiao Li patted his chest.
The breakthrough pills given by Mr. Han had greatly improved their cultivation. Originally only five-star Dou Masters, now one was seven-star and the other six-star.
In terms of cultivation talent, Xiao Li was slightly better than Xiao Ding.
"Haha, next, it's up to us two brothers. This crisis might not necessarily be a bad opportunity."
When doing something, one naturally wants to do it best. In this Rock Desert City, Xiao Ding also wanted to reach the top.
——————————
Outside the city gate, Han Feng and the others hadn't walked a few steps when they saw a group of aimless people suddenly squeeze over and surround them.
"Friends, if you know what's good for you, hand over that green-haired girl."
The mercenary in the lead held a long knife and smiled sinisterly.
Han Feng glanced at the other party indifferently, then looked at a black-robed man in the crowd.
Dou Spirit?
In this small Rock Desert City, a Dou Spirit expert appeared and deliberately hid in the crowd.
What kind of conspiracy is this?
Seeing Han Feng ignoring him, the mercenary became furious and directly raised his long knife to greet him.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan realized that this was his chance to make a move. He immediately stepped forward and blocked the attacker.
Bang!
The Heavy Xuan Ruler swung fiercely at the mercenary. The heavy force directly bent the long knife, and the force extended to the mercenary's hand, forcing him back several steps before dissipating.
"You are the Third Young Master of the Desert Metal Mercenary Company that has been rumored recently?"
The mercenary sneered, and then a mass of yellow Dou Qi in the shape of a gauze appeared on his body.
Dou Master!
Seeing this, Xiao Yan was not alarmed but delighted.
Bring it on!
The two fought together again.
Relying on the advantage of his Earth Rank technique, Xiao Yan fought back and forth with the opponent.
Han Feng let his junior brother practice in actual combat, while secretly paying attention to the black-robed man.
"Flame Splitting Tsunami Ruler!"
Xiao Yan fiercely swung out a slash. Seeing the extraordinary momentum of this Dou Skill, the mercenary dared not take it head-on, but underestimated the speed of the Flame Splitting Tsunami Ruler.
In an instant, the mercenary was hit by the ruler's light and sent flying dozens of meters away. After falling to the ground, he twitched twice and then went completely silent.
At this moment, amidst the rising dust, the black-robed man finally made his move. His target was clear: he went straight for Qing Lin.
However, the opponent's movements were exposed in Qing Lin's eyes. Qing Lin slowly raised her hand, and a green light flew from her wrist.
Before the black-robed man could react, he saw a huge python body blocking out the sky, whipping him fiercely with its tail.
Boom!
The black-robed man was sent flying backwards. He barely stabilized his body, but the blood in his chest surged, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood mist.
Dou King!
Under the black robe, the ambusher looked unwillingly at the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake that had suddenly appeared, quickly abandoned the plan, and fled into the distance.
Qing Lin narrowed her eyes.
"Little Green, go catch him."
The Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake flicked its tongue, a trace of fighting intent revealed in its pupils, and flew out quickly.
The black-robed man's movement speed had exceeded that of ordinary human Dou Spirits. His legs were particularly thick, and when he ran, he left afterimages.
Seeing this, the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake knew it couldn't be careless. It immediately summoned its Dou Qi wings and attacked at full speed.
Boom!
The green flame whipped towards the black-robed man like a whip shadow. Running at full speed, the opponent had no time to dodge and could only jump hurriedly.
Bang!
The clothes shattered. Under the black robe, a middle-aged man with short hair revealed his true face. His arms suddenly swelled and turned into huge magical beast claws.
Han Feng's eyes moved slightly.
Magical beast?
No, still human. Is this a transplantation of magical beast limbs?
Rip!
The man's back changed again, expanding into a huge pair of wings.
It was just that these wings looked very mismatched with his arms and feet, not like they were taken from the same kind of magical beast, but more like they were pieced together.
After beast transformation, the middle-aged man's strength skyrocketed, no weaker than a low-star Dou King.
The pupils of the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake completely narrowed, and the green flames on its body rose high.
It was not an ordinary magical beast. After breaking through to the fifth tier, its combat power was not something a mere beast-transformed human could contend with.
Two-Headed Fierce Cloud Roar!
The Dou Skill originating from its bloodline was naturally displayed by the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake.
A circle of green flames rippled in the sky of the desert. The mercenaries who had surrounded Han Feng and the others were already speechless with fear and began to flee in all directions.
Lin Xian'er glanced at the crowd, a coldness in her eyes.
Just now, she had already poisoned this group of people. Since they dared to attack them, they had to pay the price.
Although those poisons were not fatal, they would make them uncomfortable for a while.
But with the turmoil in the city now, these mercenaries would probably be unable to participate in the upcoming battles.
Xiao Yan looked in shock at the two sides fighting in the distance. That two-headed giant snake was Qing Lin's pet?
Being able to form wings with Dou Qi meant it was a Dou King expert!
If Qing Lin was this strong, then Lin Xian'er, whom she called sister, must be even more terrifying?
Among this group of people, are only Xun'er and I ordinary people?
Xiao Yan thought to himself.
Boom!
Another energy roar came from the distance. Dust filled the air, and the beast-transformed middle-aged man finally fell to the ground.
The Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake had also used its full strength. If it hadn't broken through to Dou King, it might really not have been this person's opponent.
Dragging the opponent back to Qing Lin, the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake shrank and flew back onto Qing Lin's wrist.
"Who is he? Why did he attack me?"
Qing Lin looked at this person in confusion.
"Maybe for your Jade Snake Three Flower Pupils. Seeing the beast limbs on his body, he should be a heretical cultivator who likes to transplant organs onto his body."
Han Feng said.
A soul needle condensed in his hand and pierced into the man's heavenly spirit acupoint. The other party woke up immediately.
"Who are you?"
"Mo family, Mo Cheng."
Controlled by the soul needle, he could only answer Han Feng's questions.
"Why did you attack Qing Lin?"
"She has the Jade Snake Three Flower Pupils. I want to transplant her eyes."
"How did you know?"
"People from the Sand Mercenary Company traded the information with me."
Han Feng released control, and the man's body went limp and fell to the ground.
He shouted in terror, "You can't kill me! I'm from the Misty Cloud Sect!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yan sneered.
"Misty Cloud Sect, Misty Cloud Sect again!"
Han Feng's eyes were indifferent.
"Sand Mercenary Company?"
"It's the strongest mercenary group in Rock Desert City, always suppressing Big Brother and Second Brother."
Xiao Yan knew quite a bit about this and explained.
Han Feng nodded.
"In that case, before leaving, help your brothers clear this obstacle."
"Little Junior Brother, this task is yours."
Xiao Yan was just about to nod, but when he heard the second half of Han Feng's sentence, he was stunned.
"Ah? Me again!"
Han Feng smiled and patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder, transferring a stream of Green Lotus Core Flame to him.
"This power can allow you to reach the Dou Master level in a short time. Go fight alongside your two brothers. They seem to have started moving too."
Han Feng looked in the direction of the city and said.
Before Xiao Yan could react, he felt a green flame surge in his body, complementing the purple fire in his Dantian.
This feeling... is power!
Xiao Yan clenched his fist abruptly. At this moment, his confidence swelled.
"Okay, I'm going, Senior Brother!"
He carried the Heavy Xuan Ruler on his back and ran towards the city with thumping steps.
——————————
At this time, the spies of the Desert Metal Mercenary Company reported the situation outside the city. Xiao Ding quickly made a decision, gathered everyone, and attacked the headquarters of the Sand Mercenary Company.
This was a rare opportunity.
The Sand Mercenary Company dared to provoke Mr. Han. They were dead meat this time!
At the headquarters of the Sand Mercenary Company, Luo Bu looked at the key members who had fallen to the ground as soon as they returned, his face gloomy.
The Mo family had screwed him over this time.
Who on earth did they provoke?!
"Commander, this is bad! The people from the Desert Metal Mercenary Company are attacking!"
"Xiao Ding... Hmph, he really knows how to pick his time!"
Luo Bu gritted his teeth, picked up his weapon, and walked out the door.
Without much talk, a big battle broke out instantly.
When Xiao Yan arrived, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were already fighting with Luo Bu.
The strength of a four-star Dou Grandmaster was extraordinary. Even if the two brothers joined forces, they were suppressed step by step.
Fortunately, the battle of the other mercenaries was almost over. The people of Desert Metal had gained a huge advantage. When everyone joined forces, Luo Bu, the Dou Grandmaster, would be nothing to fear!
"Big Brother, Second Brother, I'm here to help you!"
Xiao Yan suddenly joined the battlefield.
"Third Brother!"
"Why are you back?"
The green and purple flames on Xiao Yan's body were full of power. Since it was Han Feng's power, they merged together naturally.
Smashing the Heavy Xuan Ruler on the ground, Xiao Yan looked at the grim-faced Luo Bu and smiled, "Senior Brother told me to come back."
"This time, let us three brothers fight side by side!"
"Good!"
Xiao Ding and Xiao Li looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
How many years has it been? Since Third Brother lost his Dou Qi, this was the first time they stood together to face a strong enemy, right?
Boom boom boom!
Luo Bu fought with the three again. Fighting one against three, even though he was a Dou Grandmaster, he felt it was strenuous.
After being hit by Xiao Yan's Heavy Xuan Ruler a few times, several obvious cracks appeared on his Dou Qi armor.
"Haha, I acknowledge the strength of you three brothers!"
Blood spilled from the corner of Luo Bu's mouth, and he raised his arm to wipe it.
"But it's not that easy to defeat me!"
"Again!"
Green Wood Prison!
Thunderbolt Absolute Kill!
Flame Splitting Tsunami Ruler!
Boom boom boom!
On the battlefield, Dou Qi was unleashed wantonly, and Dou Skills emerged one after another.
Luo Bu's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared at the sky.
But in the end, anger was just his last stubbornness.
Xiao Li's Thunderbolt Three Flashes pierced through Luo Bu's chest.
The Dou Qi armor completely shattered. Luo Bu knelt in front of the three, slowly lowering his head.
Winner takes all, loser loses all. This is how it is.
Cruel and realistic.
The three brothers were also exhausted at this time, with many wounds on their bodies.
Luo Bu was a four-star Dou Grandmaster, an expert equivalent to Xiao Zhan's level.
The fact that the three brothers could defeat Luo Bu showed that they already had the qualifications to challenge their father.
"Third Brother, thanks to you this time. If you hadn't come back, Luo Bu really wouldn't have been so easy to deal with."
After the big battle, Xiao Yan felt sore all over.
But he felt a burst of comfort in his heart.
This was the battle he wanted.
At the three-year agreement, without the help of his two brothers and without the assistance of his senior brother, Xiao Yan might have to face Nalan Yanran, who was at the Dou Grandmaster level, alone.
"When brothers are of the same mind, their sharpness can cut through gold."
Xiao Yan smiled and bumped fists with his two brothers, then shouldered the Heavy Xuan Ruler and took a step.
"I'm really leaving this time."
"Go. We look forward to hearing the good news of your three-year agreement."
"Definitely!"
Xiao Yan waved confidently.
Outside the city gate, Han Feng looked at the battle-damaged version of Xiao Yan and nodded with satisfaction.
After this battle, he saw a different Xiao Yan.
Confident, sunny, with the courage to face strong enemies directly.
People transform through battles one after another.
"Let's set off."
Han Feng took out the treasure ship. After everyone boarded, they flew towards the Tagor Desert.
"Zi Yan, where is the place you mentioned?"
Han Feng asked.
Zi Yan stood at the bow, pouting in thought.
"I forgot..."
Han Feng: ...
"Oh, this big desert looks all the same. I really can't remember."
Looking at Zi Yan's appearance, Han Feng silently took out a sixth-grade pill.
Zi Yan's eyes instantly straightened.
"Do you remember a little bit now?"
Gulp.
"Yes, yes, a little bit."
Zi Yan nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
Han Feng took out another pill.
"What about now?"
"I remember! I remember everything!"
Zi Yan pounced over to grab it.
Han Feng raised his arm high, dodging Zi Yan.
"Little girl, refine the energy in your body first."
"This breakthrough to Dou Emperor happened while you were unconscious, so apart from your cultivation, nothing has changed. If you don't work hard when you break through to Dou Ancestor, you'll be a little girl for the rest of your life."
"Boohoo, Han Feng, give it to me quickly!"
Unable to grab the pill, Zi Yan cried pitifully.
Han Feng's words hit her sore spot. She had broken through to Dou Emperor but still hadn't grown up. When exactly would she become an adult!
"Find the place first."
Han Feng said ruthlessly.
"Ugh... okay."
Zi Yan was dejected and could only start searching hard.
After half a day, Zi Yan finally found the entrance to the cave.
Because too much time had passed, it had been buried by wind and sand. However, Zi Yan's sense of smell was extremely keen, and she had already smelled the rich water vapor hidden deep underground.
She raised her small fist and smashed down hard.
A big hole was instantly opened in the sandy ground.
"This is it!"
Zi Yan flew in front of Han Feng and stared at him.
Han Feng gave her the pill and steered the treasure ship to land slowly.
"I'll go down and take a look first. You wait here for a while."
The cave was very dark and deep. If one hadn't mastered the ability to fly, they would likely be injured by falling.
Zi Yan nodded, eating the pill she had just received.
"Go quickly. I'll watch over this place!"
As the strongest cultivator among the girls, Zi Yan deservedly took on the duty of guarding.
"Senior Brother, I'll go with you. I can fly too."
Xiao Yan raised his hand.
His Purple Cloud Wings were already thirsty.
Thinking that Xiao Yan might be a bit awkward alone up there, Han Feng nodded in agreement.
He raised his hand and sent out a burst of Dou Qi to protect Xiao Yan, and then the two jumped into the cave.
