Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 46 Little Fairy Doctor

"Hello, young lady!"

Xiao Bai sat cross-legged with his arms on his thighs, his hands supporting his chin, his body leaning slightly forward. He looked at the edge of the cliff in front of him, where a small hand first appeared, and then half a small head suddenly popped out. His eyes were full of a playful smile.

Little Fairy Doctor was panting heavily, her fair face covered in sweat, and her dark hair clung tightly to her cheeks.

Just as he was about to climb the cliff and the monsters below hadn't caught up, he was feeling happy that he had escaped a calamity when suddenly everything went dark and a deep, smiling male voice sounded in his ear.

She was startled and quickly looked up. She saw a head with gray hair, chin in hand, right in front of her, with two strands of hair almost touching her face.

"what!"

A scream rang out from the cliff, making Xiao Bai want to cover his ears.

Although the girl had her eyes closed and was screaming in panic, she still held the rope tightly to her chest with both hands and did not let go.

Xiao Bai watched her quietly with a smile. After she called out, she opened one of her closed eyes a crack and cautiously looked outside.

Only after seeing the body behind Xiao Bai's head did he breathe a sigh of relief, opening his eyes to look at Xiao Bai with some wariness.

Although she was a little angry that this person had scared her at the cliff edge, she couldn't lose her temper since she hadn't gone up yet.

"This... um..." She was a little unsure how to address the person in front of her; his hair was gray but his face looked somewhat young.

"Young master, could you lend me a hand? I'm almost out of strength."

Seeing that this person was just quietly looking at her with a strange smile in his eyes, Little Fairy Doctor felt strange in her heart, but her hands were already trembling a little, and she couldn't help but softly make a request.

Xiao Bai didn't say anything, but stood up and extended a hand to her.

Seeing this, Little Fairy Doctor took a deep breath, gripped the rope tightly with one hand, and placed the other hand in Xiao Bai's hand.

Xiao Bai grabbed her small hand and, with a slight effort, lifted her off the cliff. Her delicate body traced an arc in mid-air before landing lightly on the cliff edge.

As Little Fairy Doctor landed, she was about to break free from Xiao Bai's grasp when she saw him release her first and whisper his thanks.

Xiao Bai looked the girl up and down. She was dressed in a plain white dress, with a delicate figure and slender body. Her face was not particularly stunning, but she had an ethereal and graceful air about her. In particular, her clear, bright eyes, like autumn water, shone with the clarity of lotus flowers, making her appear even more refined and otherworldly.

Most importantly, her waist is so slim! It could be encircled with a single hand!

Xiao Bai appeared calm on the surface, but inwardly he kept nodding and sighing with emotion.

"Why are you here, young master?" Little Fairy Doctor smoothed her hair and looked up at Xiao Bai softly.

Does this guy also know about the cave down there?

"Being chased by my enemies, I was feeling frustrated. I remembered reading in the stories that jumping off a cliff could lead to a miraculous encounter, so I came here to give it a try!" Xiao Bai said, his smile fading as he feigned frustration.

Upon hearing this, Little Fairy Doctor became anxious and quickly said:

"Young master, you mustn't! I just checked down there, and there's nothing there!"

"Huh? Could it be that you, young lady, are also on the same path as me, seeking opportunities at the foot of the cliff?" Xiao Bai's eyes lit up slightly, as if he had found a kindred spirit.

Little Fairy Doctor secretly rolled her eyes. Who said she was on the same path as him? She was worried that if the man in front of her jumped off the cliff here, he might actually have a miraculous encounter.

Wait a minute! Could this guy know about the cave down there?

He took a step back without making a sound, pulled out a handful of powder from his person, and held it in his hand.

Xiao Bai, with his keen insight, could easily see through her subtle actions. He shook his head, thinking, "This isn't fun at all!"

"Girl, I advise you to put what you're holding away. That thing is useless to me!" Xiao Bai stopped pretending and his expression returned to its cold and stern state.

Little Fairy Doctor's pretty face froze slightly. She awkwardly put away the powder in her hand. This stuff could only be used for sneak attacks. Otherwise, with her ninth-level Dou Qi strength, she wouldn't be able to threaten the person in front of her at all.

Although she didn't know this person's cultivation level, being able to come here meant he at least had the strength of a Fighter.

This guy is also very deep and his expression can change in an instant, unlike the straightforward mercenaries she treats, which makes her a little scared.

"I want that cave at the bottom of the cliff. Now I'll give you two choices: either come down with me, or I'll knock you out before I go down. You have three breaths to decide!" Xiao Bai said to her calmly. Since she didn't want to play games, he would get straight to the point.

"one"

"two"

"I'll go down with you!"

Little Fairy Doctor was taken aback when she heard Xiao Bai's words. This guy really knew about the cave below. Then, seeing that he had counted to two, she was afraid that Xiao Bai would knock her unconscious immediately, so she hurriedly shouted.

This is the Monster Mountain Range. If he knocks you unconscious, who knows how long it will take to wake up? If you encounter other monsters, you'll at most die, but if you encounter a beast like the Ape, it'll be worse than death.

"What a despicable bastard! You just wait!" Little Fairy Doctor cursed inwardly, thinking that she would make him pay when she got back to Green Mountain Town.

She had never encountered such a domineering person before. Thinking of how hard she had worked to discover the cave left by her predecessors, she felt a pang of sadness.

"Congratulations on making the right choice!" Xiao Bai glanced at her and said coldly.

He was just trying to scare her; no matter what she chose, she would go down with him.

Xiao Bai picked up the rope from the ground, tugged on it, and tested it. It was tied quite securely. Then he waved to her.

Little Fairy Doctor took a step back warily, placed her hands in front of her chest, and looked at Xiao Bai, saying, "What are you going to do?"

"Of course we'll go down together!" Xiao Bai said, looking at her as if she were an idiot.

"No, there's another rope over there, I brought it as a spare, I'll go get it and tie myself up!" Little Fairy Doctor pointed to the crooked tree and refused outright.

"Okay!" Xiao Bai looked at her finger and nodded lightly.

Little Fairy Doctor was overjoyed. She didn't want to go down with this bastard, so she hurriedly walked towards the tree. However, she hadn't taken two steps when she heard Xiao Bai's hateful voice again.

"You ran out of the cave in such a panic earlier, you must have encountered that rock snake! It's on that tree at the top of the cave now. Don't be afraid if you encounter it later!"

"Rock Serpent!" Little Fairy Doctor exclaimed in surprise. She had almost been scared to death in the cave just now, and hurriedly stopped in her tracks to retrieve the rope.

"You can handle this, right?" Little Fairy Doctor asked cautiously.

Seeing Xiao Bai nod, she continued walking towards the tree, but then she heard that bastard say indifferently, "I'll help you if you're on the same rope as me, but with the other one, it's uncertain, depends on my mood!"

"Ugh... How can there be such a despicable bastard in the world!" Standing there, Little Fairy Doctor stomped her feet and turned around to glare at Xiao Bai with hatred. She wanted to bite him to death. If looks could kill, he would have died a thousand times over.

After thinking it over, still afraid that Xiao Bai wouldn't take action, Little Fairy Doctor reluctantly came to his side.
