Battle Through the Heavens: The Inner Struggle of Cultivation Brings Xiao Yan to Tears

Qinglin looked at the two of them, a hint of emotion flashing in her eyes.

"Thank you, young master and young lady."

Little Fairy Doctor looked at Qinglin, a thoughtful look flashing in her eyes.

She knew that, although that's what she said.

However, these gazes are still too cruel for a little girl.

Moreover, it's difficult to change in a short period of time.

Even if you forcibly order these people not to hate Qinglin, it won't work.

She knew that these people's disgust was heartfelt and revealed unintentionally.

There are no good solutions in the short term.

……

After leading the two to the cafeteria, Qinglin intended to return home.

Because she rarely eats in the cafeteria.

Most of the time, I would take my portion and sneak off to a quiet corner to eat.

Moreover, I only eat a little bit each day and dare not eat more.

However, Little Fairy Doctor pulled Qinglin aside and invited her to have dinner with the two of them.

Qinglin initially wanted to refuse, but she couldn't resist Little Fairy Doctor's insistence.

After they finished eating, Little Fairy Doctor asked Qinglin to take the two of them around Stone Desert City.

While the three of them were shopping, Little Fairy Doctor whispered something in Xiao Yang's ear.

"Is there any way to help Qinglin?"

Xiao Yang knew what Little Fairy Doctor was thinking, so he spoke directly.

“You can take Qinglin with you. After all, this is the Tagor Desert, and most people here hate the snake people.”

"Because of the saying 'dislike of the house extends to the crow,' we also have an extreme aversion to mixed-bloods like Qinglin."

"Second, make Qinglin stronger."

"In this world, the strong are ultimately respected."

"As long as you have enough strength, others can only shut up."

Upon hearing this, Little Fairy Doctor nodded.

"It's difficult to make Qinglin stronger in a short period of time."

"Or we can take Qinglin with us when we leave."

Xiao Yang had this idea all along.

“No problem, we can spend a few days with Qinglin and ask for her opinion.”

Little Fairy Doctor also knew that she couldn't be impatient.

After all, Qinglin had only known them for a short time.

It's definitely not appropriate to directly suggest taking Qinglin with you.

Xiao Yang secretly created a task.

[Task: Subdue Qinglin. Reward: Luck +5, Spirit +5, "Azure Eyes Secret Manual".]

Xiao Yang was overjoyed when he saw the mission reward.

This reward is quite generous!

Now he was even more determined to take Qinglin with him.

However, this also requires Qinglin to genuinely want to go with him.

He wasn't in a hurry; there was plenty of time, and he could gradually build a good relationship with Qinglin.

……

Soon, a few days passed.

In just a few days, the news that the third leader of the Mo Tie Mercenary Group was a seven-star Dou Shi (Battle Master) and also an alchemist spread quickly.

Many mercenaries are eager to join the Desert Iron Mercenary Group.

Xiao Yang has been refining pills these past few days.

He currently has a total of three Foundation Building Pills and five Orchid Heart Pills.

Nine submissions, and only one failure!

Unfortunately, of the eight pills, three were of medium grade and five were of high grade.

Not a single perfect pill with the Dan pattern has appeared.

For the rest of the time, Xiao Yang had people help him search for places in the southeast of Stone Desert City where there might be strange fire.

Although he did not know the location of the strange fire, he knew that it was roughly located in the southeast of Stone Desert City.

In the original story, it was Qinglin who found that location.

Of course, this is because Queen Medusa went there and was injured.

Qinglin was able to sense it because of her bloodline.

Queen Medusa hasn't found the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame yet, so Xiao Yang can only send his mercenaries to search for it slowly.

It is located about several tens of miles southeast of Shimo City.

This area is too large; it would be difficult for him to find it on his own.

I still need to get these mercenaries to help me determine a rough location first.

His method for determining the location was quite simple: he would look at where the fire element energy of heaven and earth was most concentrated.

In the desert, the most abundant energy is fire and earth elemental energy.

Where there is a strange fire, the fire-attribute energy will definitely be the most concentrated.

He directly instructed the mercenaries to search based on this point.

He also said that the strange fire should be underground, and they need to find the underground passage first.

Chapter 120 Double Happiness

The distance of several dozen miles doesn't seem far.

However, once the radiation spreads out, it only provides guidance to the southeast of Stone Desert City.

The area that needs to be explored is still very large.

The farther away from Stone Desert City, the larger the area to be explored.

This is why Xiao Yang wanted to help Xiao Ding and his companion expand their mercenary group.

The current Mo Tie Mercenary Group doesn't have as many mercenaries as it would a year or so later.

However, with Xiao Yang's reputation as an alchemist, expansion became much easier.

Otherwise, Xiao Yang wouldn't bother helping them expand the Mo Tie Mercenary Group.

After all, he planned to take the Xiao family and Xiao Ding to another place within two years.

The Xiao family is still in great danger in the Gama Empire.

Of course, a better method would be to directly control the guardian deity, Wu.

Xiao Yang knew that the Beast Taming Technique could not only imprint Beast Taming Marks on people.

He could easily imprint a soul mark on the enemy's soul.

This way, you can kill the opponent at any time.

However, humans are different from magical beasts; the human must not resist.

To render someone unable to resist, one needs immense strength.

Xiao Yang believed that given enough time, he was confident he could reach the peak of Dou Sheng!

As for the Dou Di, we can only hope that the system will reward them with Origin Qi at that time.

This thing is the key to breaking through to the Dou Di realm.

Without this, even if Xiao Yang possessed the system, there would be no way to achieve anything.

This is why, even though he could completely devour the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, he still left most of its essence for Xiao Yan.

He even planned to do the same with the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.

Because he needs to have a backup plan.

Xiao Yan is his backup plan.

He wasn't very confident in competing with the Soul Emperor for that half-finished Emperor Pill.

After all, in critical moments, the Soul Emperor can sacrifice all members of the Soul Clan, turning them into his power.

But who are Xiao Yang's teammates?

Gu Yuan was indecisive.

There are also undercover agents from the Yan, Lei, and Gu clans within the tribe.

The Soul Clan can easily wipe out the Spirit and Stone Clans.

The Medicine Clan whose eyes are on their heads.

He might be considered an old dragon emperor who had been imprisoned for thousands or tens of thousands of years.

As for the opponents...

Having plotted for a thousand years, the Soul Emperor is the strongest being of our time, possessing both courage and wisdom.

The second-ranked Strange Flame is Void Devouring Flame, whose cultivation has reached the level of a nine-star Dou Sheng.
