Chapter 25 Taking a Beauty to the Sky, the Camp in Turmoil!

"Given Mu Li's cunning, there are definitely Wolf Head Mercenaries guarding the cliff," Little Fairy Doctor reminded him solemnly.

"We can't climb up with the ropes; otherwise, they can simply cut them, and we'll all be stuck at the bottom of the cliff, certain to die!"

"What should we do then? We can't just stay in this cave forever, can we?" Xiao Lei shrugged, looking helpless.

In fact, Xiao Lei had already noticed that there were quite a few figures on the cliff, carrying torches and patrolling around.

Little Fairy Doctor bit her red lips, and after a long while, she said, "I can take you away."

"Oh? Do you have a good idea?" Xiao Lei raised an eyebrow and asked.

Little Fairy Doctor said, "I have a blue eagle companion."

Xiao Lei feigned surprise and said, "A first-tier flying magical beast, a Blue Eagle?"

"Hmm," Little Fairy Doctor nodded slightly, then took out a short bamboo flute from her bosom, put it in her mouth, and gently began to blow.

Suddenly, a strange sound wave emanated from the flute and swirled in the night sky outside the cave.

"Hey!"

Not long after the strange sound waves spread, a sharp cry rang out in the night sky.

With the help of the moonlight, Xiao Lei could see a huge, azure eagle flying rapidly through the depths of the mountains, circling over the cliff at the cave entrance in just a moment.

"Let's go," Little Fairy Doctor breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Blue Eagle arrive, put away her bamboo flute, and said to Xiao Lei.

Xiao Lei smiled and said, "From now on, I can entrust my life to you."

"I'm not the kind of person who repays kindness with enmity. You helped me just now, I won't harm you," Little Fairy Doctor said, rolling her eyes at Xiao Lei.

"Of course I trust you," Xiao Lei smiled slightly, put his arm around Xiao Yixian's slender waist, and leaped onto the back of the huge blue eagle.

"Xiao Lan, let's go!"

After settling on the blue eagle's back, Little Fairy Doctor patted its neck and whispered.

Upon hearing Little Fairy Doctor's voice, the Blue Eagle immediately flapped its wings, creating a powerful gust of wind that carried the two people on its back into the sky.

The mercenaries on the cliff soon spotted Xiao Lei and his companion on Blue Eagle's back.

"Shoot it down!"

Suddenly, the lead mercenary let out a sharp shout.

Instantly, the dozen or so mercenaries on the cliff all drew their bows and nocked arrows.

A burst of arrows shot through the air, hurtling towards the blue eagle in the sky!

Seeing the rain of arrows coming, Xiao Lei frowned slightly and prepared to strike and knock them away.

"Hey!"

Just then, the blue eagle that had been sitting down suddenly let out a sharp cry, and at the same time, its wings shook violently, and a pale blue gale blew out, instantly sending a wave of arrows flying into the cliff.

Blue Eagle was very fast, and soon flew out of the mercenaries' firing range.

Little Fairy Doctor gently stroked Blue Eagle's back with her jade-like hand, then turned to Xiao Lei and smiled, "It's safe now."

"Your blue eagle is quite impressive," Xiao Lei said with a smile, casually stroking the feathers on the eagle's back.

At the same time, the system reward message arrived in Xiao Lei's mind as promised.

[Ding! You touched the Blue Eagle and obtained a Red Ginseng!]

A single dose of the first-grade elixir, the Red Ginseng, is better than nothing.

Xiao Lei's heart stirred slightly, but he did not show anything on his face.

"If it were on land, it wouldn't be a match for you," Little Fairy Doctor shook her head slightly, still somewhat shaken by Xiao Lei's feat just now.

Xiao Lei smiled, not continuing the topic. Looking at the rapidly receding forest below, he turned to Little Fairy Doctor and asked, "Where are you planning to go?"

With her slender fingers smoothing her wind-blown hair, Little Fairy Doctor smiled faintly and said, "I'm going back to the herb-gathering team. What about you?"

"Since you want to go back to the herb-gathering team, I'll go back with you," Xiao Lei said after a moment's thought.

"You went treasure hunting with me, and Mu Li led his men to follow us. Now that I've killed him, if I don't go back, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group probably won't let you off easily."

Hearing Xiao Lei's words, Little Fairy Doctor felt a warmth in her heart and smiled, "Besides the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, are there any other mercenaries in the herb-gathering team? They shouldn't dare to make a move."

"After returning to Qingshan Town, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group dared not do anything to me. The power of Wan Yao Zhai is no less than that of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, and the leaders of the other two major mercenary groups have both owed me favors."

After a pause, Little Fairy Doctor added with some concern, "As for you, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group might retaliate fiercely. If you're not confident in your ability to defend yourself, perhaps you should take refuge for now?"

Xiao Lei asked, "Do you know the strength of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group?"

"Yes, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group has been developing in Qingshan Town for more than ten years. There are about seventy to eighty core members, and most of them are between the second and fifth level of Dou Zhe."

Little Fairy Doctor nodded slightly and said, "Besides that, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group has three leaders: the third leader, He Meng, is an eight-star Dou Zhe; the second leader, Gan Mu, is a nine-star Dou Zhe; and the leader, Mu She, is a two-star Dou Shi."

"The strongest is only a two-star Dou Shi, then there's no problem," Xiao Lei said calmly, stroking his chin.

"If they dare to make a move, I wouldn't mind wiping out the Wolf Head Mercenary Group."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"Since you're confident, let's go straight back to the herb-gathering team," Little Fairy Doctor said, a look of surprise flashing across her eyes.

"Hmm," Xiao Lei nodded slightly, naturally having no objection to this.

Little Fairy Doctor stopped talking, turned her head and directed Blue Eagle to return to the herb-gathering team's camp.

Above the night sky, a giant blue eagle slowly circled down, finally landing in an open area not far from the camp.

"Go," Little Fairy Doctor said, patting the blue eagle's neck after the two jumped off its back.

Blue Eagle nuzzled Little Fairy Doctor with its wing, then flapped its wings and flew into the sky again.

"Let's go back," Little Fairy Doctor said, raising her snow-white chin slightly as she watched the blue eagle soar into the night sky.

Xiao Lei nodded slightly, and together with Little Fairy Doctor, they quickly returned to their respective tents under the cover of night.

After returning to his tent, Xiao Lei did not sleep, nor did he rush to take the Qi-boosting pills. Instead, he engaged in some light-level cultivation.

After all, he didn't know if the Wolf Head Mercenary Group would attack him.

An hour later, Xiao Lei suddenly heard a commotion in the camp, so he ended his cultivation and walked out of the tent.

Just then, the group of Wolf Head Mercenaries who had been on the cliff edge not long ago were seen carrying the corpses of Mu Li and the others back to their camp with grim expressions.

The mercenaries in the camp were all in an uproar upon seeing this scene.

"What...what happened?"

"Young Master Muli, how could he be dead? We didn't hear any fighting!"

"I saw Young Master Muli earlier, leaving the camp with a group of mercenaries. I didn't know what they were doing there. I never expected..."

"..."

Looking at the corpses of Mu Li and the dozen or so Wolf Head Mercenaries, everyone's expressions changed. While they felt a sense of schadenfreude, they also became secretly on guard.

The atmosphere in the camp suddenly became somewhat heavy.

Little Fairy Doctor also came out of the tent, exchanged a silent glance with Xiao Lei, and then pretended not to know: "What happened? How did Young Master Mu Li and these mercenaries get killed?"

The other mercenaries in the camp also looked at the remaining mercenaries of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, wanting to know how Muli and the others died.

More importantly, they need to know if there are powerful enemies lurking in the shadows.
