94: Chapter 94 The Little Fairy Doctor Who Sees Fools

Qingshan Town was the town closest to the Magical Beast Mountain Range, and thus also went by the nickname Magical Beast Town. Xiao Yan had departed from here previously to head toward the Tagor Desert.

On the bluestone-paved streets, groups of mercenaries were talking animatedly, unscrupulously discussing which woman in town was the most flavorful and where the strongest liquor could be found.

For these mercenaries who lived their lives on the edge of a blade every day, such wanton behavior was undoubtedly the best way to vent.

But now, the mercenaries filling the streets were uncharacteristically silent.

Several figures slowly approached from the end of the street. Leading them was a young man who appeared incredibly noble, and behind him were four beautiful women with varying styles.

Aside from the petite Zi Yan and Qing Lin, the elegant Xun'er and the incomparably enchanting Medusa were undoubtedly the most eye-catching.

However, these crude mercenaries did not act as they usually did when encountering beauties, making vulgar jokes or suggestive movements to tease them.

This was because behind these people, a massive Demonic Beast that blotted out the sky was slowly floating. Its terrifying aura was enough to make these mercenaries, who frequently dealt with Demonic Beasts, tremble.

“That person isn't here.” Xiao Yan shook his head. His Soul Power had already completely spread out, but there was still no trace of Xiao Yi Xian in the vicinity.

After randomly finding a mercenary group to inquire with, Xiao Yan learned the specific details of what had happened.

Although only a year had passed, the impact Xiao Yi Xian had made back then remained fresh in the memories of these mercenaries.

Before experiencing that incident, no one knew that the seemingly harmless and fragile beauty actually possessed such ruthless determination.

After Xiao Yi Xian emerged from the treasure cave, the Young Leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group was heavily injured and took a long time to recover. For some unknown reason, once he recovered, he developed a deep grudge against Xiao Yi Xian.

Several months later, he conspired with Wan Yao Pharmacy, suspecting that Xiao Yi Xian had obtained treasures from the cave. As the situation gradually escalated, it led to an incredibly horrifying death event.

In a single night, Mr. Yao of the Wan Yao Pharmacy and hundreds of people from the Wolf Head Mercenary Group all met tragic deaths!

After that, Xiao Yi Xian vanished. Some said they saw her go into the depths of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, while others said they saw her head toward the Izumo Empire...

Has it only been a year since she left? Perhaps the Wolf Head Mercenary Group was the one that suffered the outbreak of the Calamity Poison Body...

“Medusa, let's send you into the Magical Beast Mountain Range first. I know a place that I think Zi Yan will be interested in,” Xiao Yan pondered.

“This concubine has no problem with that.” Medusa naturally had no issue. If Xiao Yan could step in to help her, that would be best; if not, she didn't feel strongly about it either.

As long as Yun Shan of the Cloud Mist Sect didn't make a move, no person or Demonic Beast within the borders of the Jia Ma Empire could stop her.

“A place I'll be interested in? Don't tell me it's full of medicinal herbs?” Zi Yan walked to Xiao Yan's side, looking up at him as she asked.

“Correct.” Xiao Yan smiled mysteriously. What he was referring to was exactly that location from the original story with many medicinal herbs. It wasn't far; a quick search with Soul Power would reveal it.

The Magical Beast Mountain Range wasn't particularly large. His massive Soul Power rapidly spread in all directions like a god's eye view. In an instant, more than half of the mountain range appeared within his consciousness.

Although the field of vision was broad, Xiao Yan couldn't observe every single place simultaneously. Soul Power only provided the view; unless he could clearly sense an aura or a mark, it was like having a map laid out before him—to find a specific spot, his consciousness still needed to search slowly.

Xiao Yan searched quickly and opened his eyes after a short while, looking toward a certain spot in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. The joy in his eyes was clearly visible, as if he had discovered something worth being happy about.

“Found it. Let's go.”

Under the shocked gazes of those mercenaries, Xiao Yan's group of five suddenly rose into the air and quickly flew onto the back of the massive Demonic Beast.

“Dou... Dou Zong?” The mercenary who had been questioned stared blankly at the departing figures of Xiao Yan and the others, murmuring in a low voice.

“Could these be... five Dou Zong?” The people in the town all showed expressions of terror. In their understanding, only Dou Zong could fly without relying on anything.

Furthermore, Dou Zong were absolutely terrifying in strength and extremely rare. One had to know that in the entire Jia Ma Empire, only the Cloud Mist Sect possessed a powerhouse at the Dou Zong Realm.

“That person, could it be Lord Xiao Yan?” A medicinal herb seller guessed aloud; he felt the man's appearance looked familiar.

“Are you talking about Lord Half-Saint Shang Yan? It's indeed possible. I also heard that Lord Xiao Yan once trained here in the past...”

“Really? Tell me more, tell me more...”

After Xiao Yan and the others left, they left behind only the heated discussions of everyone in town.

...

This was deep within a basin where energy was extremely abundant, but it was shrouded in thick fog year-round, making it impossible for ordinary people to find.

When Xiao Yan and the others arrived, a sudden gale swept through, blowing away the fog that had lingered for years.

Seeing this basin rich in energy and covered in medicinal herbs, Zi Yan's eyes immediately lit up. She rushed down quickly, rolled up her sleeves, and began digging up herbs with great effort.

“Who is it!”

A woman's shout rang out. Judging by the voice, she was a woman around the same age as Xun'er.

A woman dressed in a white dress walked out. Her slender willow waist, which could be held in one hand, was bound by a green sash. Although the white-dressed woman's expression was serious, it still couldn't hide her ethereal aura.

The woman wasn't peerless in beauty, but she was still a rare beauty, especially with that ethereal temperament. This unique aura undoubtedly boosted her charm significantly.

Zi Yan turned her head upon hearing this, baring her teeth as if dissatisfied with the woman's shout.

“Xiao Yi Xian, long time no see. How is the cultivation of that Poison Scripture going?” Xiao Yan's voice slowly rang out.

When Xiao Yi Xian looked up, her face instantly changed color. When did the Magical Beast Mountain Range get such a terrifying Demonic Beast!

Wait, this young man is actually standing in mid-air! Dou... Dou Zong?

Looking at the elegant and noble young man before her, Xiao Yi Xian was clearly stunned.

Upon careful identification, even though his appearance had changed a lot, Xiao Yi Xian still recognized the young man.

“You... you're that fool?” Xiao Yi Xian said in shock.

In the air, Xiao Yan's aura momentarily fluctuated. He was somewhat dumbfounded.

“What did you call me?”

Faintly hearing the soft laughter of several girls, Xiao Yi Xian finally reacted. She felt some regret; her mind had been so shaken that she had spoken without thinking.

After all, when she first got that Poison Scripture, Xiao Yi Xian often woke up laughing from dreams where that fool had actually forgotten to ask her for the manual and the Profound Rank Cultivation Technique!

“Xiao Yi Xian, do you know who I am? How dare you insult this Saint like that.” Xiao Yan spoke from above, abandoning the idea of landing in front of Xiao Yi Xian to talk.

“Pah, this Saint? You think you're Xiao Yan?” Seeing it was that fool, Xiao Yi Xian's regret mostly vanished.

Hearing him call himself 'this Saint' now, her urge to roast him flared up. She wasn't worried about the consequences since he was easy to fool anyway.

Look, that purple-haired little girl he brought has the same temperament. Haha, as expected, fools only hang out with fools!

Xiao Yan could hear the laughter above him getting louder. He said helplessly, “You guys come down too, let's get acquainted.”

“Xiao Yan, I didn't expect you to have a day like this, hahaha, you're killing me... Pah, this Saint, you think you're Xiao Yan? Hahahaha.” Zi Yan mocked Xiao Yan while digging up herbs.

Xiao Yan closed his eyes and took a deep breath. It seemed he needed to speed up the progress of establishing the Council; he had to throw this brat Zi Yan away as soon as possible!

Xiao Yan was very clear about the importance of the Council. It wasn't just to build momentum for himself to facilitate his next plans after entering the Central Plains, but also to temper Qing Lin, Xiao Yi Xian, and the others.

These people were talents worthy of his trust. Therefore, after he ruled the continent, each of them would be responsible for managing a region of the continent.

However, what surprised Xiao Yan was that because he hadn't participated in the plot, Xiao Yi Xian's original trajectory had changed.

Fortunately, he had anticipated this and came here personally instead of going directly to the Izumo Empire to search.
