Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 123 Unhappy and Happy

Both fists slammed into the scales on the back of the water python. In an instant, ripples appeared on the light blue fighting armor, flashing violently.

Under the suppression of the wild aura of the Void Spirit Devouring Flame, the water python's already manic mind was on the verge of collapse. The devouring power took advantage of the opportunity and rushed in, burning two large holes in the fighting armor almost instantly.

A pungent smell of burnt stench wafted through the air, and Xiao Yan's arms penetrated the water python's body like a rotten tree, wreaking havoc inside it. A hissing sound, far more shrill than before, suddenly resounded throughout the entire forest.

Deep blue strands of Dou Qi continuously blasted out from the water python's body and fell on Xiao Yan, making his face pale and causing him to cough up blood in pain. However, his movements did not relax, but became more brutal and ruthless, determined to take his life.

Soon after, the violent struggle gradually subsided, and the huge body of the water python slammed to the ground. The violent tremor caused Xiao Yan to fall down from above powerlessly and land in the mud.

"Damn, this python is really cruel. I almost got caught."

Although he was in a miserable state, Xiao Yan's pale face was covered with an irrepressible smile.

The third-level monster won.

Xiao Yan had experienced this kind of cross-level battle with a huge gap in cultivation before, but he usually relied on the help of Yao Lao or Ruoruo. But this time, he did not use any external force, and defeated the water python whose cultivation was far superior to his with his own strength.

This feeling made him feel very happy, just like singing and drinking on a summer night.

After realizing that his body was about to sink completely into the quagmire, Xiao Yan stood up exhausted, walked to the front of the water python step by step, summoned a trace of virtual spirit swallowing fire, and placed it in front of the huge snake head.

After a long while, when Xiao Yan found that there was no movement from the snake head, the smile on his face suddenly froze, his eyelids twitched wildly, and then turned into a feeling of bitterness.

This water python doesn't seem to have a magic core.
He sighed depressedly. Because of the sudden attack, he did not have time to use the Void Spirit Swallowing Flame to sense whether there was a magic core. Yao Lao obviously could not know this with his soul power alone. After all, this was a special effect unique to the Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Fire.

In other words, he fought in vain.

Rolling his eyes secretly, Xiao Yan shrugged helplessly, quickly took out a few Qi-recovery pills, and began to regulate his depleted Dou Qi.

The high-level Yellow-grade Burning Art was becoming increasingly unbearable for his squandering. If it weren't for the relatively sufficient number of Qi-Restoring Pills refined by Yao Lao, he would even be reluctant to eat them.

Not long after, Yao Lao's voice suddenly appeared in Xiao Yan's ears.

"Smelly boy, the noise from the previous battle was too loud. Many monsters from the deep mountains are approaching here. Let's retreat first."

After hearing Yao Lao's words, Xiao Yan, who had originally planned to strip the water python of its scales to make up for the loss, finally turned gloomy.
"It's those beasts from the deep mountains again. I'll kill you sooner or later."

After cursing angrily, Xiao Yan did not dare to stay here any longer. He quickly summoned the Purple Cloud Wings and flew towards the cave.

When they reached the waterfall, Xiao Yan, exhausted, put away his Purple Cloud Wings and casually took off his mud-covered black shirt. Just as he was about to dive into the pool to wash himself clean, he heard a sweet and pleasant voice of doubt coming from not far ahead.

"Oh, Third Young Master, are you so eager to show off your body as soon as we meet?"

The movement of his hands suddenly stopped, Xiao Yan's face stiffened, and he hurriedly put the clothes that were in a mess back on his body, raised his head and looked forward.

He saw that on a stone pier not far away, a graceful girl in a black dress was looking at him in surprise, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, looking very mischievous.

"Ruoruo, have you made a breakthrough?"

Ignoring the teasing tone in the girl's words, Xiao Yan asked in surprise, his previous brief depression dissipated almost instantly. Seeing Xiao Yan's actions, Yao Lao in the ring couldn't help but shake his head in a state of confusion.

Obviously, this guy was extremely ruthless and decisive outside before, but when he was with Ruoruo, he seemed to be a completely different person. He even forgot the most basic perception and cultivation. It really is true that there is always something that can defeat something else.
Hearing this, Hun Ruoruo first burst out laughing, and then sighed with a bit of sadness.
"You are truly foolish. You don't even know whether someone has cultivation or not. If you act like this in the outside world, you will suffer great losses."

"Hehe, that's what I said, but this isn't the outside world."

Xiao Yan scratched his head and smiled.

"It's really gratifying that the Third Young Master trusts me so much."

Hun Ruoruo looked happy, her cheeks flushed, and she looked shy and happy at the same time, and it was hard to tell whether it was real or fake.

During this period of time, she had become somewhat familiar with Xiao Yan's strange behavior. Since she could not sense that he had any desire for her, Hun Ruoruo naturally had no resistance to this closer relationship.

The more Xiao Yan trusts her, the more solid this retreat will be. If things continue like this, even if he finds out her identity in the future, she won't need to spend too much energy on it.

Therefore, although she felt that this so-called friendship was very troublesome and ridiculous, Hun Ruoruo was still willing to play the game of house and wine with Xiao Yan. She had always been a greedy person, and there was no reason not to take the benefits that came for free.
Thinking of this, she paused, revealing a look of regret, and said regretfully: "Third Young Master, you don't know that I encountered a huge difficulty when I was practicing to break through. If I can't overcome it, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to break through again."

"Difficulties?"

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously asked: "With Ruoruo's ability, could it be possible that she would also encounter difficulties at the Douhuang bottleneck?"

"Well, I'm forced to come out and ask for your help."

"Me? How can I help you?"

Xiao Yan was surprised. Apart from the accidental incident last time, he didn't think he could help the other party in any way.

Seeing that Xiao Yan seemed to be hesitant to speak, Hun Ruoruo didn't say anything, but just stared at him with a tearful look, as if tears were about to roll down.

But after a moment, Xiao Yan felt uncomfortable being looked at. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. He didn't bother to ask what the favor was, and agreed repeatedly.

"Okay, but let me make it clear first, I may not be able to do it."

"You agree!"

Hun Ruoruo's expression changed faster than turning the pages of a book. She immediately revealed a brilliant and cunning smile, and the ring on her fingertip popped up and was thrown lightly in the direction of Xiao Yan.

With a raised eyebrow, Xiao Yan caught the ring thrown from the air, immersed his consciousness in it, and then widened his eyes——

"This, this medicinal herb?"

"I want the Bigu Pill."

Hun Ruoruo took a few quick steps forward, then turned her head slightly, her eyes narrowed into crescents.
"So I can only ask you, the quasi-second-grade chef."

The girl's voice was playful and lively, and she seemed very confident.
