Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

"I really am!!!"

Feng Qing'er was really angry. How dare you negotiate with me so confidently after stealing my things? ! Where do you get the nerve? ! !

With the anger in her heart, Feng Qing'er slowly raised one hand, with fierce thunder fighting spirit swirling in her palm, and murderous intent emanating from her eyes.

She had no intention of hitting a child.

According to her expectations, once she caught up with the boy and forced him to return the ring to her, the matter would be over. Feng Qing'er was not so petty as to lay hands on a child.

But the prerequisite is that the boy is willing to cooperate.

The boy’s attitude now was really unacceptable to her!

What Feng Qing'er hates most is people who are shameless even if they are given a chance! No matter if they are old or young!!!

"Xiao Yan! Get out of the way!!!"

Feng Qing'er yelled at Xiao Yan angrily. Xiao Yan turned his head to glance at her, but had no intention of avoiding her. Instead, he leaned forward and protected the boy in Feng Qing'er's blind spot.

This way, no matter where Feng Qing'er attacks from, she cannot avoid Xiao Yan.

"Excuse me, can you let me finish my question?"

"you"

Xiao Yan prayed softly, lightning flashed on Feng Qing'er's hands and the expression on her face changed.

Finally, he shook his hand suddenly, dispersing the lightning on his hand, and gritted his teeth in anger.

What can I do?!

Don’t be fooled by Xiao Yan’s gentle tone, as if he is negotiating with you, but Feng Qing’er knows very well that behind Xiao Yan’s harmless attitude lies his extremely high strength that can instantly kill a Dou Ling!

Even if I disagree, what can I do? Can I beat him? In the end, don't I still have to listen to him?

Feng Qing'er suddenly felt deeply aggrieved. She turned her back to Xiao Yan, her shoulders shaking with anger.

I was the one whose things were stolen, but why do I feel like I am the one who is at fault?!

Seeing Feng Qing'er turning away angrily, Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with apology. He looked at the boy again and asked softly.

"Can you, tell me why you need the money?"

"."

The boy was silent for a long time, with some hesitation in his eyes.

Having lived here since childhood, he deeply understands what the Black Horn Region is like.

To put it bluntly, there is no good person, including myself.

Therefore, he really did not want to explain the reason, fearing that it would bring disaster upon himself.

No matter how much suffering I endure, it doesn't matter, but Yiyi.

The boy was conflicted and glanced at Feng Qing'er who was standing behind Xiao Yan with her back to him.

Immediately, he determined the situation.

Now, it seems like it’s not the time to worry about this.

The boy knew very well that Feng Qing'er wanted to kill him, but it was only because of Xiao Yan in front of her that she gave up the idea.

If Xiao Yan didn't stop Feng Qing'er because he didn't explain the reason, he would really die here.

It doesn’t matter if I die.

But I can't die now.

If I die, Yiyi will definitely die too.

After figuring it out, the boy breathed a sigh of relief.

There's really no other way.

He could only take a gamble.

After making up his mind, the boy took another deep breath and looked at Xiao Yan.

"My sister is sick and needs a lot of money." The boy said slowly in a low voice: "Although I saved some money before, it is not enough to buy medicine. Her illness has become more and more serious in the past few days. There is no time to delay it any longer."

After the boy finished speaking, he looked at Xiao Yan cautiously, trying to observe his expression.

Then the boy was stunned.

Because he saw Xiao Yan revealing a gentle smile.

"Really?" Xiao Yan looked at the boy and said softly, "Can you take me to see your sister? I can help her heal her illness."

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, the boy was stunned at first, then he lowered his head and said no more.

Seeing the boy like this, Xiao Yan's eyes dimmed slightly.

Obviously, the boy's action silently revealed that he did not trust himself.

That's true. How could it be so easy for someone you meet for the first time to gain others' trust?

What's more, this boy has been living in this treacherous Black Corner region, so it is natural that he is overly wary.

"I understand. If you have concerns, I won't force you." Xiao Yan said, and then asked: "How much money do you need to buy medicine for your sister?"

"Thirty thousand gold coins."

This time the boy blurted out the answer without even thinking. It was almost instinctive.

Immediately, Xiao Yan took out a gold coin card from his storage ring and handed it to the boy.

"There are exactly 30,000 gold coins in here. You can use them."

The boy stared blankly at the gold coin card that Xiao Yan handed over, and then his eyes flashed with color, and he took the gold coin card in his hand tremblingly.

Although the boy was not sure whether there were 30,000 gold coins in the gold coin card.

But now that things have come to this, he has nothing more to ask for and can only choose to believe.

What's more, if Xiao Yan really didn't want to give it, there was no need for him to take out an empty gold coin card to perfunctory himself.

Moreover, the boy felt deep down that Xiao Yan was different from the people from the Black Horn Region he had met before.

"Thanks."

The boy whispered his thanks, and then, in front of Xiao Yan's stunned gaze, he put his fingers to his throat.

"vomit!"

Hearing the retching sound coming from behind her, Feng Qing'er turned around in confusion.

Then I saw a ring being spit out from the boy's mouth, covered with dirty mucus.

And that ring was the one that was stolen.

Feng Qing'er's brain went blank immediately.

Me???

"I'm sorry, I really don't have any other good way to hide."

The boy wiped the ring on his tattered clothes and handed it to Xiao Yan with an apologetic look.

Xiao Yan looked at the storage ring in his hand with a conflicted look on his face.

No wonder he didn't use his soul power to sense where the boy hid the ring along the way. It turned out that he had swallowed it.

Immediately the boy stood up and bowed deeply to Xiao Yan.

"Thank you very much!"

After saying that, the boy immediately turned around and left, and Xiao Yan also quickly left a word.

"If you still have trouble, come find me in the house in the south western corner of the city!"

Chapter 304 Return the favor

After watching the boy walk away and disappear from his sight, Xiao Yan glanced at Feng Qing'er beside him and found that the latter was still staring blankly at the storage ring in her hand, as if she had not yet come to her senses.

Xiao Yan also lowered his head to look at the storage ring lying in his palm, his eyes filled with extreme weirdness.

Immediately, Xiao Yan took out a bottle of water from the storage ring, unscrewed the bottle and poured the water into the ring to rinse it. Then he took out a handkerchief to wipe the ring clean and turned around to hand it to Feng Qing'er.

“Well, Miss Feng.” Xiao Yan laughed dryly and handed the ring to Feng Qing’er, “Please keep your ring.”

"."

Feng Qing'er came back to her senses and was silent for a long time.

Finally, he reached out and took the ring, his expression stiff as hell.

I used my spiritual sense to check the ring and found that indeed not a single gold coin was missing.

But Feng Qing'er really felt uncomfortable in her heart.

If you don’t know, it’s fine.

The key point is that I just saw with my own eyes that the ring was spit out of the boy's mouth.

Fortunately, the boy's stomach was relatively clean and he didn't vomit out the filth. Otherwise, Feng Qing'er would have gone crazy.

This should be considered a blessing in disguise.

What's more, Xiao Yan washed it with clean water, so as long as he didn't recall the scene just now, he would be able to accept it.

That’s all.

Feng Qing'er took a deep breath and adjusted her mood.

At least the ring was found. This kind of thing, although it makes people feel upset, is not important, so just ignore it.

Feng Qing'er carefully put away the ring, turned to look at Xiao Yan, and said in a serious voice.

"Xiao Yan, thank you for your help."

Although Feng Qing'er was very unhappy with Xiao Yan's act of protecting the boy just now.

But in the end, it was with the help of Xiao Yan that he was able to retrieve the ring.

If she couldn't find the ring, that would be a real trouble for her. Compared with that, it would only be a slight psychological setback, and Feng Qing'er could bear it.

"You're welcome. I have my own purpose." Xiao Yan smiled softly and said, "Now that the ring has been found, let's go."

"Ah."

Then the two of them slowly left the alley, walked a few dozen steps, and returned to the noisy street.

Xiao Yan turned towards Feng Qing'er and spoke slowly.

"Then Miss Feng, I have something else to do. Excuse me."

After saying that, Xiao Yan turned around and was about to leave. He did not forget the purpose of his coming out. He had to hurry to the auction house to buy all the household items.

However, before Xiao Yan could take two steps, Feng Qing'er suddenly reached out and grabbed his clothes, causing Xiao Yan to turn his head in confusion.

"Miss Feng, is there anything else?"

"Huh? Ahem."

Feng Qing'er coughed twice with an embarrassed look on her face, then turned her head slightly, with a slight blush on her face, and spoke in a low voice.

"You helped me a lot yesterday and today. It really makes me uncomfortable to owe you this favor. If you want anything in return, just ask. I will do my best to satisfy you."

Although both of her encounters with Xiao Yan were extremely embarrassing, he still helped her a lot after all. Feng Qing'er felt very uncomfortable to keep owing a favor to a stranger.

No matter what, at least give him some back.

Feng Qing'er's words made Xiao Yan slightly stunned. Just as he was about to raise his hand to refuse, Feng Qing'er came closer and stared at Xiao Yan with her green eyes.

"I have to pay it back, and you are not allowed to refuse. I don't want to owe anyone anything, let alone a favor."

"Forehead"

Xiao Yan twitched his lips helplessly, and his mind became a little clearer.

From this perspective, if I don't make any requests, Feng Qing'er will probably keep pestering me.

"Then Miss Feng, do you know where to sell household items in the Black Horn Region?"

Xiao Yan spread out one hand and asked. As expected, he still didn't want to go to the auction house to buy these things. They were too expensive.
