Chapter 47: Digging a Hole in Advance
Shimo City, Motie Mercenary Group, Martial Arts Training Ground.

"uncle!!"

Xiao Li, who had just finished training, saw Yang Chen standing at the door with a smile on his face. He immediately raised his hand and shouted excitedly, startling Xiao Ding who was sitting on the ground to rest.

Xiao Ding just turned around and saw Yang Chen's figure flash and appeared in front of the two of them. Before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Yang Chen raising his hand.

"Come on, wipe the sweat first."

Yang Chen took out two towels from his storage ring and handed them to Xiao Ding and Xiao Li. After feeling the obviously more condensed and powerful power in the two men's bodies, the smile on his face became a little more.

"Originally, my uncle was thinking of finding someone to exchange for two high-level Xuan-level techniques, but I didn't expect you to have such an opportunity. It seems that my uncle is useless."

Xiao Li's hands froze as he wiped the sweat off his face, and his nose felt a little sore, as if the three brothers had not felt this kind of care since their mother passed away.

Although their father cared about them, he was not very considerate. He also had family affairs to deal with and rarely spent time on the three brothers.

Therefore, in Xiao Li's memory, from a very young age, it was his eldest brother who took care of him and his third brother. Later, when he grew up a little, he and his eldest brother took care of Xiao Yanzi together.

"no!"

Xiao Li lowered his head and shook it gently. Even Xiao Ding looked a little dazed. Fortunately, after being the eldest brother for so many years, Xiao Ding was still able to control his emotions and immediately changed the subject.

"Uncle, have you visited Xiao Yanzi? How is his health?"

"If my uncle doesn't even have this ability, then he's pretty incompetent, isn't he?"

Yang Chen smiled and patted Xiao Ding and Xiao Li on the shoulders. He naturally wouldn't tell anyone about Yao Chen's affairs. He believed that Yao Chen would also ask Xiao Yan to keep it a secret and tell everyone that he had solved the problem of Xiao Yan's abnormal cultivation.

"Don't worry about Xiao Yan's affairs, uncle will take care of it. But you, don't be lazy in your daily training. Tianlei Wang and the other two entered the Dou Wang realm earlier than me, and their strength is extremely strong. Follow them and practice hard. In the future, your achievements will definitely not be low!"

"Don't worry, uncle. I will definitely work hard!"

Xiao Li immediately patted his chest and said this. His confident look made Yang Chen laugh. Xiao Ding, who was more calm beside him, saw that Yang Chen was alone and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Uncle, how's the thing you did before going? And, that guy last time..."

Xiao Ding, who didn't know the origins of Queen Medusa, didn't know how to address her for a moment. However, when he was halfway through speaking, he saw Yang Chen's face looked a little ugly, so he immediately stopped talking.

Yang Chen's face was filled with anger. After taking a deep breath, he snorted heavily. He seemed to be still a little resentful, but in front of his nephews, he had to force himself to restrain himself.

"Let's not talk about Queen Medusa, that untrustworthy woman!"

"Queen Medusa?"

Xiao Ding and Xiao Li took a deep breath when they heard this, and then their eyes changed when they looked at Yang Chen, with admiration mixed with a hint of worry.

"Uncle, Queen Medusa didn't do anything to you, did she?" Queen Medusa's reputation in the Tagor Desert was far worse than anyone else's. No one could compare with her. The name alone was enough to make people afraid.

Yang Chen snorted when he heard this, his face showing some disdain, and he spoke angrily.

"Hmph, she dares? If that bastard Gu He hadn't interfered, that strange fire would have been mine. How could Queen Medusa have taken it by force?"

"Strange fire?"

Brothers Xiao Ding and Xiao Li looked at each other, and both saw the confusion on each other's faces. Yang Chen seemed to realize that he shouldn't get angry in front of his nephew, so he immediately restrained his anger and explained softly.

"Strange fire is a divine object of fire attribute nurtured by heaven and earth. It has a fatal attraction for fire attribute practitioners, especially for alchemists. Unfortunately, I failed this time, resulting in me being able to intercept other flames for use."

"Uncle is talking about the Dan King Gu He?"

Xiao Li asked cautiously, but who would have thought that after hearing this, Yang Chen curled his lips in disdain, as if the famous Dan King Gu He of the Jia Ma Empire was nothing in his eyes.

"Dan King? Is he worthy? If it weren't for that treacherous woman, Queen Medusa, what would he have to fight me with?"

"Then why didn't uncle just snatch it from Gu He?"

After hearing Xiao Ding finally ask this crucial question, a smile flashed in Yang Chen's eyes, but he sighed with regret on his face and explained carefully.

"Alchemists can only refine one special flame in their lifetime. I have already intercepted other special flames to refine. Even if I snatch the strange fire from Gu He two years later, I won't be able to do it."

"Hey, but Gu He is willing to give so many pills to the Serpent People first. However, the strange fire can only be taken away from the Serpent People's royal city two years later. He is really not afraid that Queen Medusa will steal his strange fire!"

Yang Chen sneered and said this, but when Xiao Ding and Xiao Li heard it, their minds began to become active.

Since the strange fire is a treasure that all fire-attribute practitioners want to obtain, then it should be useful to Xiao Yanzi. When Xiao Yan broke through to the Douzhe level, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li had not yet left the clan, so they naturally knew that Xiao Yan had fire-attribute Douqi.

There are still two years left. During these two years, if the two of them practice hard and strive to reach the level of a great fighting master, they may still have a chance to fight. Moreover, if they can establish a good relationship with the two teachers, then they may be able to pull them together to rob Gu He and take the strange fire from him.

Gu He and his uncle have a grudge. If he can really snatch it away, it will also help his uncle get rid of his anger. As for Gu He's threat, he can just ask his uncle to come forward when the time comes.

This thought flashed through Xiao Ding and Xiao Li's minds almost at the same time. After looking at each other, they nodded slightly.

Yang Chen saw everything, and with a smile in his eyes, he waved his hand, pretending to be helpless and sighing with regret. He spoke as if unintentionally, with a hint of gloating in his tone.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Whether the strange fire can reach Gu He's hands by then is another matter. Hey, by then, Queen Medusa will fall into a deep sleep after using the secret technique. Although the snake people say they will help him, it is estimated that they will not be able to provide any real help. If someone interferes, he, a Dou Wang, may not be able to defend it."

Queen Medusa is sleeping, and the snake people are standing by and watching?
Such news shocked Xiao Ding and Xiao Li. The information about the strange fire made Xiao Ding, who was always calm and composed, lose his judgment. He never thought about how this information could be leaked to them. Of course, a big part of the reason for this was that they had enough trust in Yang Chen.
