Battle Through the Heavens: He marries Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate the marriage!

Chapter 22 Xun'er Returns to Wutan City!

Wutan City, the Xiao family.

At this point, quite some time had passed since Xiao Yan went out to train.

Before he left, with the help of the old apothecary, he left a large number of pills for the Xiao family and occupied the largest market.

The Xiao family, on the other hand, were like parched land receiving rain; their past of being trampled underfoot fueled their fervent desire to become stronger.

Using the large quantity of pills provided by Xiao Yan, they undoubtedly rose to become the number one family in Wutan City.

Today, everyone suddenly discovered that Xun'er, who left the family a year ago, has returned.

The news spread rapidly after Xun'er returned to the Xiao family.

Xun'er rushed to the Xiao family.

"Uncle Xiao!"

When she saw Xiao Zhan, she still bowed to Xiao Yan's father, Xiao Zhan, with the same politeness as before.

After Xiao Zhan smiled and gestured for Xun'er to be polite, Xun'er immediately looked up and asked eagerly, "Uncle Xiao, where did Brother Xiao Yan go?"

Xiao Zhan was silent for a moment, then said, "Yan'er has been away on training for some time now."

She didn't have time for further pleasantries. After quickly thanking Xiao Zhan, she lifted her skirt and stood up, immediately intending to go find Xiao Yan.

Xun'er secretly slipped away from the ancient clan this time, accompanied not only by Ling Ying, an eight-star Dou Huang, but also by a Dou Zong expert from the ancient clan.

After all, Xun'er was Gu Yuan's darling. As the head of the clan, how could he not notice any disturbances in the Ancient Realm?

Just as Xun'er was about to sneak away, he learned of it.

As his daughter grew up, he realized he couldn't take care of her forever. Just as a bird's wings grow strong, he needed to give her the space to fly.

Gu Yuan sighed inwardly and decided to let go, but how could he not send someone to keep an eye on Xun'er's safety?

Therefore, Ling Ying and another Dou Zong expert were sent to follow Xun'er.

Furthermore, if Xun'er encounters a life-or-death crisis and faces a perilous situation where she is about to die, she only needs a second to struggle before she can crush the spatial jade slip she carries with her and summon Gu Yuan, who is far away in the ancient realm.

Gu Yuan has put in a lot of effort for this daughter, and he only hopes that she can grow up safely in the end.

Gu Yuan silently watched Xun'er's departing figure and let out a long sigh.

Meanwhile, after some investigation, Xun'er quickly learned of Xiao Yan's whereabouts.

After thinking for a moment, she decided to head towards the Monster Mountain Range with Ling Ying to find Xiao Yan.

……

Monster Mountain Range.

At this moment, Gu Fei and Little Fairy Doctor's group had already collected a lot of medicinal herbs.

Although Gu Fei's storage ring still had plenty of space, the medicinal herbs he needed were no longer there.

"Brother Gu Fei, we..."

Little Fairy Doctor looked at Gu Fei, and before she could finish speaking, Gu Fei nodded.

So she told the mercenaries that they were getting ready to go down the mountain.

However, her beautiful eyes were filled with worries, and her brows were furrowed.

[Little Fairy Doctor experiences worry; her mood value increases by 100.]

With the help of the system, Gu Fei noticed that Little Fairy Doctor's condition was not quite right, but he did not say anything.

Little Fairy Doctor was quite absent-minded. As she walked, she didn't even notice when Gu Fei in front of her stopped. She bumped into his solid back before she came to her senses.

Her brow remained furrowed, and she seemed somewhat downcast.

Gu Fei stared at her for a moment, then shook his head.

The reason why Little Fairy Doctor was so worried was that, in the spare time she was gathering herbs, she had already read through the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture that she had obtained in the cave at the bottom of the cliff.

When she saw the words "Calamity Poison Body" at the beginning of one of the pages, her heart sank slightly. A strange feeling told her that she would regret reading it.

But Little Fairy Doctor pursed her lips and continued reading.

After reading the entire Seven-Colored Poison Scripture, she learned that she possessed the Calamity Poison Body constitution.

Little Fairy Doctor could sense that her Calamity Poison Body had not yet been unsealed, so she tried her best to stop herself from having wild thoughts.

Right now, the more important matter is clearly the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.

Gu Fei killed Mu Li, the young leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, without leaving any witnesses. The surviving mercenaries didn't dare to go back and tell anyone.

However, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group might associate her with this group, since Gu Fei is a first-time visitor and shouldn't have any conflicts with Mu Li.

The vast majority of the remaining mercenaries were not as strong as Muli and could not kill him, while the very few who were stronger than Muli could not afford to offend the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.

Therefore, if they think about it carefully, they might suspect Little Fairy Doctor.

If Little Fairy Doctor were to return to Green Mountain Town, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group would likely not let her go.

Although Gu Fei is strong, he probably won't stay in a small place like Qingshan Town any longer.

Little Fairy Doctor's clear purple eyes were filled with worry.

[Little Fairy Doctor experiences worry; her emotion value increases by 100.]

Gu Fei sighed; he could certainly see Little Fairy Doctor's worries.

He couldn't wait for Little Fairy Doctor to figure things out on her own, because that girl's mind was always prone to wild thoughts.

Gu Fei stepped forward and said softly, "Little Fairy Doctor, are you worried about facing retaliation from the Wolf Head Mercenary Group after returning to Green Mountain Town?"

His face was gentle, and his gaze was fixed on Little Fairy Doctor. She hesitated for a moment.

"Well, young master, you may not know, but the Wolf Head Mercenary Group is the most powerful mercenary group in the entire Green Mountain Town. Their young leader is dead, and the mercenary group won't let this go easily. Moreover, Mu Li is the leader's son."

Little Fairy Doctor nodded and readily admitted it.

Little Fairy Doctor was too worried. The Wolf Head Mercenary Group was ruthless, and anyone who offended them would suffer the consequences.

Now that their young commander has died inexplicably, the retaliation will be even more terrifying.

Gu Fei smiled and said calmly, "Don't worry, I will take care of everything."

"Next, I will leave openly, but I will actually stay in Qingshan Town for a few days. If anyone tries to harm you, I will deal with them all."

Gu Fei paused for a moment.

"You just need to be a good Little Fairy Doctor, leave everything else to me."

[Little Fairy Doctor is moved, her emotion value increases by 100]

Little Fairy Doctor stared blankly at Gu Fei. The confidence in his voice warmed her heart and gave her a strong sense of security.

Gu Fei looked down at the girl with purple hair and purple eyes. Her eyes were shallow and misty, as if she was about to cry.

In Qingshan Town, everyone respects Little Fairy Doctor, but no one has ever told her: You just need to be a good Little Fairy Doctor, leave everything else to me.

Little Fairy Doctor's throat tightened slightly, and the long-lost feeling of her heart beating faster returned.

[Little Fairy Doctor develops feelings of admiration; her affection level increases by 100.]

She didn't say anything more, but her expression calmed down considerably as she followed Gu Fei down the mountain.
