Battle Through the Heavens: The Holy Sun Immortal Venerable

Chapter 51 Green Scales Acquired, Xiao Li Shows Loyalty

The Azure Serpent's Three-Flower Eyes can sense serpentine magical beasts; this is an innate talent of Azure Scale, so neither Green Robe nor White Fang questioned it.

Listening to Qinglin's story, Lin Ran's lips curled up slightly. Calculating the time, it should be exactly when Medusa obtained the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.

Moreover, judging from the timeline in the original work, there is still a month before Guhe Yunyun and the others arrive.

He can do a lot of things in this month.

"Your Mo Tie Mercenary Group isn't entirely without merit."

Lin Ran smiled at Xiao Li, and with a slight movement of his palm, a wisp of battle qi entered Xiao Li's body.

As the battle qi entered his body, Xiao Li felt a dense, scorching heat emanating from within. The instant this heat surged forth, Xiao Li was astonished to find that the pain from his severe injuries inflicted by the Green Barbarian vanished completely, replaced by a comfortable, warm sensation.

But this feeling was fleeting, and the next moment, intense pain swept over his body and mind!

"hiss!!"

Xiao Li's eyes widened suddenly, and he gasped.

He felt as if, in that instant, his entire being was torn to pieces by a tremendous force, as if molten lava was being forged within him, tempering his flesh and bones.

"Second Regiment Commander!"

Qinglin gasped in surprise, while Xiao Li gritted his teeth: "I'm fine..."

"Of course he's fine."

As a Dou Huang powerhouse, Bai Ya naturally understood what was happening to Xiao Li at this moment. He clicked his tongue and said, "This human is quite lucky. Boss, as a Dou Zong powerhouse, is actually willing to help such a weak human clear his meridians. I really don't know what Boss values."

Unblocking the meridians?

Everyone suddenly realized, and their gazes toward Xiao Li held a distinct hint of envy.

Xiao Li clenched his teeth, his whole body slightly curled up, but when he thought about the current situation, he forced himself to grit his teeth and endure it.

Lin Ran's fighting spirit was extremely domineering, rampaging through his meridians.

The whole process lasted for about half an hour before it ended. By the time Lin Ran's fighting spirit dissipated, Xiao Li had collapsed to the ground, his face pale, covered in cold sweat, and completely weak.

But his face showed no sign of pain or fatigue; instead, it was filled with ecstasy!

"Six-star Dou Shi?! I actually broke through! And I even broke through two stars in quick succession! How is this possible?!"

He was originally a four-star Dou Shi, but unexpectedly, after Lin Ran's Dou Qi circulated through his body, he broke through two stars in a row. This was simply a stroke of luck for him!

Xiao Li hurriedly got up from the ground, took a deep breath, and knelt down heavily before Lin Ran amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd.

"Thank you so much for your life-saving grace, my lord. I have no way to repay you, and I am willing to go through fire and water for you, devoting myself to your service!"

"Alright, alright. I don't care whether you're sincere or not, but the fact that you said those things to me shows that you still have feelings for me."

Lin Ran smiled faintly, took out a wooden token from his storage ring, and tossed it to Xiao Li: "However, your strength is indeed too weak. You are far from qualified to become one of my forces."

"I've expanded your meridians, so your cultivation speed will increase dramatically. Breaking through to the Great Dou Master level within a year won't be a problem. But I'm taking Qing Lin with me. As for your Mo Tie Mercenary Group... Bai Ya will help you clear the obstacles in Shi Mo City."

"I……"

Qinglin opened her mouth, somewhat at a loss, and subconsciously looked at Xiao Li, only to see Xiao Li respectfully accept the wooden token and bow deeply to Lin Ran.

"I will do whatever the adults say."

"Um."

Lin Ran nodded slightly, a look of satisfaction on his face, and then looked at Qing Lin again.

"You should be able to pinpoint exactly where she stayed."

"I think I should be able to. Although several months have passed, the residual aura she left behind is too strong. I... I should be able to find that place by relying on the trace of blood in my body."

Qinglin lowered her head and spoke softly, her small hands helplessly clutching the hem of her clothes.

Xiao Li's behavior has already foreshadowed her future.

From this moment on, she was no longer a member of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group.

From now on, this young man will be her new master.

"For example, if you wish to go, sir, Qinglin will do her best to take you!"

"very good."

Under the slightly jealous look in Little Fairy Doctor's eyes, Lin Ran rubbed Qing Lin's little head: "You can stay with Little Fairy Doctor for now."

"Yes, sir."

"Just call me Young Master."

"Young, young master..."

……

Lin Ran led the group away and stayed at other restaurants in Stone Desert City. After all, the base of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group had been completely destroyed, so even if Xiao Li wanted to entertain them, he couldn't.

The huge commotion caused by the Mo Tie Mercenary Group naturally aroused the curiosity of countless people in Stone Desert City. After noticing that the terrifying aura was gradually dissipating, almost all the mercenary groups sent people to the Mo Tie Mercenary Group's territory to gather intelligence.

"How so? I just took care of all of these guys?"

White Fang chewed and swallowed the fragrant roasted monster meat in front of him, then stared at Xiao Li with a carefree expression.

Xiao Li shook his head, revealing a somewhat helpless yet ingratiating expression: "Although my relationship with these mercenary groups is just so-so, and some of them even have grudges against me, if I kill them all, the Mercenary Guild will definitely not agree, and the city lord of Stone Desert City will definitely hold me accountable."

"Although you are unparalleled in power and fearless of these things, if my Mo Tie Mercenary Group wants to continue to establish itself in Stone Desert City, we still need some official support."

"You humans are such a hassle, whatever."

White Fang snorted, "But you'd better make up your mind quickly. Although the boss asked me to give you some help, I don't have that much free time to play around with you."

"That's natural, that's natural."

Xiao Li bowed obsequiously.

Did he know just how terrifying this seemingly snake-man-like guy really was? This was a genuine Dou Huang powerhouse. As long as he didn't encounter the pillars of the Jia Ma Empire, this guy could practically walk sideways throughout the Jia Ma Empire!

Having his help is like having a sword of Damocles in Xiao Li's hand; he can kill whoever he wants!

"The most powerful elder of the Mo family in Stone Desert City is an outer sect deacon of the Cloud Mist Sect, and the Cloud Mist Sect has humiliated my third brother like that..."

Xiao Li's eyes gleamed with a sharp light. What he wanted was not only the absolute status of the Mo Tie Mercenary Group within the Mercenary Guild, but the absolute status of the entire Shi Mo City.

Therefore, he must make good use of this knife to maximize his own benefits!

With this thought in mind, Xiao Li cupped his hands in a respectful gesture toward Bai Ya and said in a low voice.

"Lord White Fang."

"So, you've decided what to do?" White Tooth casually picked his teeth.

"Yes, I do indeed have a formidable enemy who requires your assistance, Lord White Fang. That person is extremely powerful, even surpassing the City Lord, and he is also an outer sect deacon of the Cloud Mist Sect, possessing a very strong background and profound resources..."

"Extremely strong... What kind of strength?"

"Rumor has it that he is a powerful Dou Ling expert..."

"Oh."

Thank you to [Tao Zong Zui You Fan] for the 1000 Qidian Coins! Wishing the boss good health, all the best, and may all his wishes come true and may he live forever!
