Chapter 104 Refreshed
The Purple Cloud Wings and the Dou Qi Wings overlapped, and Xiao Yan turned into a stream of light and streaked through the air.

'It seems that I think the same thing.'

Xiao Yan felt the speed increase by more than double, and several of his guesses about the Dou Qi transforming into wings were confirmed.

"Wow!"

Suddenly, a cry was heard in the sky, and in the distance, a huge creature was flying above the clouds. Although the fluctuations of its fighting spirit were quite weak, its rich energy and blood were quite eye-catching.

"Public flying birds and beasts."

Xiao Yan looked at the wooden buildings piled on the thick-winged bird and was amazed at its bearing capacity.

This bird or beast must have an incredibly strong body as it can fly steadily and at high speed while carrying cargo that is five or six times its own weight.

"Teacher, what kind of existence is this creature that doesn't belong to the category of magical beasts? Is it a physical cultivator among beasts?"

Xiao Yan thought for a long time before remembering that this thing did not belong to the category of magical beasts.

"I don't know."

Yao Lao was just as puzzled as he was: "Beasts like this cannot survive in the Central Plains. They can only be found in areas like the Gama Empire where the land is vast and the population is sparse and the realm is generally low."

"My knowledge of these beasts is limited to the fact that they do not have magic cores, so they cannot practice fighting spirit step by step. I don't know anything else. Maybe they are fragments of ancient times, just like those ruins?"

"Wow!"

The thick-winged bird cried in a muffled voice, and the sound waves spread above the clouds.

There are so many secrets in Douqi Continent...

Xiao Yan watched the giant bird gradually fall behind, and was thrown into the dust line in the sky and turned into a black dot and disappeared: "I don't know what the world will be like at that time."

"Perhaps the ground is covered with the Emperor's blood?"

Yao Lao helplessly spread his hands: "If a Doudi is determined, he can make the entire plane stained with blood."

In a sense, everyone is like a dragon, and everyone is a child of destiny.

Perhaps today's several great imperial clans are the remnants of their former glory. It's just a pity that the blood power in their bodies has also shown signs of exhaustion. In a few thousand years, the Doudi era will be completely buried in the ground.

'This is a decaying world...'

Perhaps because he was getting older, Yao Lao suddenly felt a common sense of sadness.

"The whole continent? You, the Doudi, are a little too indiscriminate."

Xiao Yan couldn't help but complain.

Is there really such a powerful person in this world?
"This is just imagination! Imagine, understand?" Yao Lao knocked on his head, and the soul power that probed the earth suddenly made a discovery, "This breath is... a snake man?"

Hearing the voice, Xiao Yan lowered his head and saw a caravan lined up in a thin line on the ground, hurrying along. Unfortunately, the speed was only a snail's pace compared to the length of the convoy, and after running for half a day they hadn't moved even one percent further.

"It seems that they are snake slaves captured from the depths of the desert. Many people like this half-human, half-snake hybrid. With such a large team, I'm afraid they can be sold for millions of gold coins."

Yao Lao chuckled a few times and pointed at the ground.

No matter what? Isn't the reference right here? Douqi Continent is huge, anything can happen.

"Snake slaves... This is already considered human trafficking. I understand that they are doing it in secret, but doing it so openly is too arrogant."

Xiao Yan roughly counted and found that there were about thirty to fifty cages of various sizes in the queue.

"population?"

Yao Lao shook his head for a while: "This can only be regarded as reselling pets... The premise of human trafficking is that they can be considered human beings."

"The several empires around the desert have long since classified them as magical beasts, making it easier to capture them. The slave trade has even been able to send a few snake people to the vicinity of Zhongzhou. If the snake people had not been able to produce a Douhuang strongman to protect them, they would have been extinct by now."

"Why, now that you feel sorry for them, you suddenly feel kind-hearted and want to help them?"

Yao Lao raised his chin and said, "If you really want to be a hero, then go for it! With me here, you don't have to worry about any disasters you cause."

In the past, he would have thought that such people were too naive and would not be able to survive on the mainland.

But after being stabbed by Han Feng and becoming like this...

Give me more.

Yao Lao wishes that the entire continent was filled with upright and good people.

"Taking action won't solve the problem. If you rob people on the road, you will only be seen as greedy for money. If you kill people, you will be considered a vicious villain. You may even be considered a racial traitor."

Xiao Yan turned his eyes away and pretended not to see it, and continued to fly forward: "If we release these snake people, few of them will be able to return to the desert safely. It is a waste of time to bring them with me personally."

If you want to solve the problem, go straight to the root cause. It is useless to deal with these things.

"Is this so..."

Yao Lao looked at Xiao Yan and frowned: "Sometimes I always feel that you don't look like a fifteen-year-old kid, but when I look closely..."

"What does it look like?"

Xiao Yan was a little nervous. He checked his expression and movements from top to bottom, thinking that Yao Lao had noticed something was wrong.

"A little brat who always talks nonsense! Haha!"

"You old thing..."

Xiao Yan's face darkened.

"How dare you! How dare you say such nonsense? Are you going to betray your master and ancestors? You are seeking death!"

The two men rushed into the thundercloud quarreling.

……

"Stop! Everyone entering the city must pay a fee, and violators will be punished. Didn't you see what's written on the sign... er..."

The soldier was shouting as usual, but his eyes were attracted by the hair that was puffed up like a bird's nest with smoke coming out. After hesitating for a while, he couldn't help but ask, "My little brother, were you struck by lightning?"

"What a joke! It's just that something went wrong in my practice."

Xiao Yan was spewing black smoke, and it was unclear whether there was a "black" expression on his face.

"But this... okay. The snake people in the deep desert have been restless recently. Some cities have been attacked. Brother, you better be careful and stay in the city for the next few days."

The soldier patted the sign and said, "Nighttime is the peak time for snake people to be active. This city has begun to implement a curfew. Please pay attention to the time when you are active."

Are snake people dishonest?

When Xiao Yan thought about the huge convoy, he understood what had happened. He just felt sad that the mercenaries had to bear the consequences of the sins committed by those merchants. He didn't know how many people in the desert had died inexplicably, dying for them.

After throwing two gold coins into the soldier's hand, Xiao Yan began to inquire about the location of a certain refreshed man: "I just came to the Great Desert and need an accurate map to guide the direction. Does anyone have any recommendations?"

The soldier's expression suddenly changed, and he pointed to the direction of the city with a smile: "Turn left along this road, and you will see a commercial street. Remember, you must find the most run-down store, because that is the one with the best quality."

"As expected of someone who started out as a businessman, you really have a strong business acumen..."

Xiao Yan couldn't help but be shocked.

The whole street is decorated with exquisite decorations, but Haibodong has transformed its run-down storefront into one that looks as historic as it is famous, making it stand out among all the shops.

"Huh? The person inside... is actually a Dou Huang?"

Yao Lao looked up at the shop, then at Xiao Yan: "Is it time to use the elixirs to clear the way again?"

Fortunately, the script has changed this time, from healing and breaking through to removing the seal. However, the atmosphere in the store is like being tied up, from Douhuang to Douling, this strength of the seal is not easy to solve. "Yes."

Xiao Yan nodded and pushed the door open: "And in the foreseeable future, this kind of thing will continue to happen."

Teacher, thank you for your hard work, there is still a lot to come.

There are still thousands of elders guarding Canaan College, so it will depend on your ability when the time comes.

"Is the boss here? I need a map of the Tagor Desert. The more detailed the better!"

Xiao Yan slapped the counter.

"Snapped."

Such a loud noise suddenly came from the empty shop. Hai Bodong's hand shook and broke the pen directly, and the ink spilled all over the picture. Several hours of work were wasted.

"Not for sale! Please go back!"

"I don't have to pay with gold coins." Xiao Yan grinned and looked at the white-haired old man.

"Young man, if you want to kill time, you've come to the wrong person."

Hai Bodong sighed and packed up the scroll, with a sharp look in his eyes: "If you withdraw now, I won't hold you accountable!"

Although his realm has fallen to the mere Dou Ling, he can still be considered an existence that can overcome everything in Mo City.

The person in front of him looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old. At most, he was just a young fighter who didn't know his own weight. He could be killed in the blink of an eye!

The Ice Emperor Hai Bodong, who once massacred a city, is not a good person. If he was not afraid of exposing himself, he would have taken action by now.

"Where did I entertain myself?"

Xiao Yan held out his hand and took out the purple crystal fire: "Isn't it very common for alchemists to use pills to replace gold coins?"

When sensing the flame, Hai Bodong's fingers trembled, and then he quickly regained his composure.

"It's not a strange fire... it's just a very powerful beast fire."

And it was also filled with the sealing power that he hated the most.

"I have seen enough ordinary alchemists. A young man like you is not worthy of joking in front of me."

Hai Bodong released a chill that enveloped Xiao Yan, and the icy air that almost froze him to the bone marrow covered him: "It will be no good for you to continue to pester me!"

'The technique is good, it can be said to be at the peak of the Xuan level.'

Yao Lao just glanced at it casually and then looked away. He already had collections of this level of attributes, so there was no need to collect another one.

"It seems that this old man has a bad temper..."

Laughter was heard from the icy mist. Hai Bodong's expression froze slightly. Not only was Xiao Yan's Dou Qi not frozen as expected, but his aura gradually rose.

'This is... the Douling realm!'

Under the old man's extremely shocked gaze, purple crystal fire ignited around Xiao Yan, sealing all the icy mist into purple crystals that scattered everywhere.

"Who are you, sir?"

Hai Bodong slammed the table and stood up, staring at Xiao Yan as if he were a monster.

What a joke... How could there be someone in this world who could fight spirits in their teens? Even if they were to cultivate from the womb, this wouldn't be enough time!

Could it be that he took the anti-aging pill?
"This kid really exposed his identity and realm without even checking whether this person's character is trustworthy!"

Yao Lao shook his head and came out to clean up Xiao Yan's mess.

Just by raising his hand, an extremely cold current filled the entire store, even the ice-attributed fighting spirit summoned by Hai Bodong was suppressed and frozen into a layer of white ice.

"The origin is not important. I just plan to use a pill to buy a map."

A pale flame lit up between the two of them, and the frost that filled the store also mysteriously ignited and turned into cold flames.

Yao Lao checked his seal: "This attribute is extremely cold and gloomy, and there is also some blood power entrenched. It should be a natural skill given by the monster."

"From the looks of it, it's most likely Queen Medusa herself who did it, right? No wonder you can't crack it."

"It really is a strange fire..."

Hai Bodong stared at the flames in a daze, and suddenly heard Yao Lao speak. He looked a little embarrassed for a moment: "That's true. Back then I was only a five-star Dou Huang, and I had no way to deal with the sixth-level peak sealing technique."

"However, after wasting so many years here, I have also found a corresponding solution. It's just that..."

Hai Bodong took out the recipe and pointed at one of the ingredients: "This Sand Mandragora can only grow deep in the desert. I am sealed and dare not sneak in too much. This herb is still missing."

"So I have to go there in person, first to get the herbs for you, and then refine them into pills to help you break the seal?"

Yao Lao frowned. He had been a pharmacist for so many years, but when did he have to trouble himself to find medicinal materials? If he could use the inventory on hand to make up for it, it would be a favor.

Going to collect herbs with great difficulty?

Then the reward has to be raised.

"Don't worry, sir! I have a treasure that I have treasured for a long time. It is impervious to water, fire, swords and guns. It was only with the mapping technology I have studied for many years that I was able to divide it!"

Hai Bodong hurriedly revealed: "Not only that, I am also one of the leaders of the Mittel family. If you need anything, please tell me!"

"Xiao Yanzi, this person even revealed his power in order to break the seal. I'm afraid his character is not guaranteed."

Yao Lao's whisper rang out in Xiao Yan's heart.

Uh?
Xiao Yan twitched the corners of his mouth.

If even the Ice Emperor is considered to have poor character, then how noble must the entire Douqi Continent be... It's not an exaggeration to call it a utopia.

"Let's wait and see. I still have confidence in him."

Xiao Yan looked at the prescription and said, "Queen Medusa is still at the peak of Dou Huang. It's just a matter of finding some herbs. It won't take much effort."

"I think you'd better be cautious, so as not to be stabbed in the back one day."

Yao Lao really didn't want his apprentice to suffer the same disaster. The wound on his lower back was still painful.

Even if this happens only once, it can be a matter of life and death.

Maybe he would confess the same thing as he did.

"Ah."

Xiao Yan listened to the instruction and said no more. The only hope for the recovery of this psychologically traumatized old man was after he was resurrected.

Being backstabbed by someone who is considered a close relative, in an anime the person should turn evil on the spot and start a war to destroy the world, right?

It was already a big gamble for Yao Lao to open up to him.

"You said you are the person in charge, so the Miter Chamber of Commerce should have connections abroad, right?" Xiao Yan knocked on the counter, "Can you get information about the surrounding empires?"

"Disaster."

Hai Bodong shook his head: "I haven't shown up for more than 20 years. The power of the Miter Chamber of Commerce will inevitably shrink significantly. Maybe it can only retain some trading partners. The spies in various places will definitely be wiped out."

"But we have a loyal customer in the Mulan Empire. The ancestor of that family has a good relationship with me, so maybe we can clear the lines there."
