In Battle Through the Heavens, lying down makes you stronger.

Chapter 139 Seeking a spouse: No restrictions, both men and women are welcome!

Even if he works hard all year round, can he really earn that much money?

If you include the huge debts he's accumulated over the years, Xiao Yan is now worth tens of millions of gold coins, though all of them are negative.

The thought of facing a huge debt made Xiao Yan hesitate.

Just as Xiao Yan hesitated, Yao Lao's voice came to his mind.

"Little Yanzi, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

"The more money you owe him, the more valuable you become!"

"When you encounter difficulties in the future, Xiao Ranzi will be even more reluctant to let you die and will protect you, don't you think?"

"To put it bluntly, even if you die young and something happens, he can't possibly come after your father for a debt, can he?"

Upon hearing Yao Lao's words, Xiao Yan's eyes lit up instantly!

Yes! That's exactly the point!

The saying "too many lice don't itch, too much debt doesn't worry" probably describes this situation.

However, he still silently said to the old medicine master in his heart.

"Teacher, please don't say such unpleasant things anymore!"

"Hey! You little rascal!"

Xiao Yan nodded happily to Xiao Ran.

"Okay, Ran-ge, we're brothers! Ran-ge, you're my brother, that's settled!"

"Um!"

Xiao Ran nodded, then asked,

When are you planning to leave?

Xiao Yan pondered for a moment,

"What will happen in three days?"

Xiao Ran frowned.

"Three days? No way, I'm leaving first thing tomorrow morning. No waiting for latecomers!"

Xiao Yan opened his mouth, but finally nodded.

"Okay, Ran-ge!"

Xiao Ran waved to Xiao Yanhui.

"Go back and rest, don't be late."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Ran!"

Xiao Yan left the room with a fawning smile and a bowing expression.

This made Xiao Ran wonder.

Strange, what's wrong with Emperor Yan? How can he still laugh despite carrying such a heavy debt burden?

Could it be that I asked for too little interest?

shook his head.

But then Xiaoqing approached with a worried look on her face.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran smiled and asked,

"Xiaoqing, what's wrong? Just tell me."

Xiaoqing thought for a moment and said...

"Young master, wherever you go, could you take me with you? I don't want to leave you."

Xiao Ran stood up, took Xiao Qing's hand, touched her hair, and said...

"This trip to the Snake People is very dangerous. You should stay here for now and I'll come back to pick you up when I'm done with my business."

Xiaoqing's little mouth was practically sticking out like a soy sauce bottle.

Xiao Ran pinched her cheek and said,

"Wait for me here. When I get back, I'll take you to the Jama Empire and Canaan Academy. How about that?"

"Let me tell you, there are so many fun things to do at Canaan Academy! I'll take you all on a blast!"

Xiaoqing tilted her head and asked curiously,

"Young Master, are you telling the truth?"

Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.

"Of course it's true! This young master's word is his bond."

"Mmm." Xiaoqing nodded happily, and then said,

"So, will the young master be bringing Uncle Lion along?"

Xiao Ran thought for a moment, then waved his hand.

"Fine, let that big lion stay here. It can protect you while I'm gone. Make sure you keep a close eye on it and don't let it cause any trouble."

"Let it rest for a few days as well; I really beat it a bit too badly today."

Xiao Qing burst into laughter at Xiao Ran's words, her eyes crinkling into two little crescent moons.

Then, as if remembering something, she blushed and stepped forward to say to Xiao Ran,

"Young master, tonight, let me... let me warm your bed for you?"

Xiao Ran was taken aback at first, then patted Xiao Qing's head, whose cheeks were flushed, and asked with a smile,

"Who taught you to do that?"

Xiaoqing lowered her head, her face flushed, and shook her head, saying...

"No, Xiaoqing only has everything because of Young Master. Everything I have belongs to Young Master, so warming his bed is only right..."

The further along they went, the quieter they became, barely audible.

Xiao Ran smiled and patted Xiao Qing's hair, then pretended to be serious and said...

"You're still young, what's the rush?"

"Let me tell you, once you've become my woman, you'll never escape my grasp for the rest of your life, understand?"

"Go and get some rest."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoqing looked up at Xiao Ran with delight and nodded emphatically.

"Yes, young master!"

Then, another sudden attack struck Xiao Ran's face.

He gave her a kiss, then turned and fled as if he were running away.

Xiao Ran was slightly taken aback.

He reached out and felt the dampness on his cheek, then shook his head and chuckled softly.

Unexpectedly, he slipped and was ambushed by a little girl.

However, Xiaoqing is indeed a beauty.

Xiao Ran couldn't bring himself to do something as foolish as asking her to leave him.

Moreover, Xiaoqing has outstanding talent and physique, ever since she obtained that two-headed fire spirit snake yesterday.

Her Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupil has been absorbing the fighting power and energy within her body. In just one day, Xiao Qing has already reached the first level of fighting energy.

This was infinitely smoother than when Xiao Ran first began to condense his Qi vortex.

Thinking about his upcoming trip to the Snake People, Xiao Ran was filled with endless anticipation.

Queen Medusa? How are you?

……

Early the next morning.

Two figures took off simultaneously from the base of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group.

Xiaoqing stood there, waving her hands frantically, tears streaming down her face.

Watching Xiao Ran and Xiao Yan's departing figures, their wings fluttering in the distance.

Xiao Ding sighed to Xiao Li with some emotion.

"Ran Di and Xiao Yan Zi have both become powerful individuals capable of flight. You and I, as brothers, must also work harder so as not to hold them back in the future."

Xiao Li nodded and said,

"Yes, what you say is true, elder brother. But there is one thing you are sure to do that is to help Brother Ran and the others."

"Oh? What is it?" Xiao Ding asked, puzzled.

Xiao Li chuckled and said,

"Big brother already has a future sister-in-law? He'll surely be the first to give birth to a member of the younger generation in the clan. Wouldn't that be far superior to Ran-di and the others? Hahaha~"

Xiao Ding then realized what was happening, and his dark cheeks instantly flushed.

He said irritably.

"How dare you make fun of me, you brat?"

"Will I not put up a marriage advertisement for you in Stone Desert City tomorrow?"

Xiao Li crossed his arms and asked with a playful smile,

"Tch! That's an old trick. Big brother's done it before, and how did it go?"

"hey-hey!"

Xiao Ding chuckled.

"This marriage proposal I posted for you is different from the ones I've used before!"

Xiao Li scratched his head.

"Brother, what does this mean? What kind of notice is this, and why is it different from others?"

Xiao Ding said with a serious expression,

"You've reached the age to get married, and as your elder brother, it's only right that I take care of your marriage."

"We'll have our group members post notices all over the streets to find you a husband."

"The personal ad should read: 'Seeking a spouse, no restrictions, both men and women are welcome!' How about that?"

"Giggle giggle!"

Surprisingly, it was Xiaoqing, who was still immersed in her farewell to Xiao Ran, who was amused first.

"puff!"

Xiao Li looked at Xiao Ding with resentment and indignation.

"Brother, you're ruthless!"
