Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

Given their previous situation, any attack from old man Mu Gu could have taken their lives. But the reason why old man Mu Gu didn't do so was, after thinking about it, there was only one reason, and that was that old man Mu Gu didn't take them seriously at all.

This reason is both good luck and a shame for Yunshan and others.

In the eyes of old man Mu Gu, they were not even worth finishing off, which meant that Mu Gu never took them seriously from the beginning to the end.

Zi Yun woke up slowly after a long while. The first thing she did after waking up was to look for old man Mu Gu everywhere in anger, roaring that she wanted to get back the revenge!

Seeing this, everyone quickly took turns to appease her, trying every way to suppress Ziyun's temper.

Are you kidding me? They are lucky to be alive now, and you are still thinking of causing trouble for old man Mu Gu?

From this we can see how reckless Ziyun's character is.

"Here, take these pills."

Yao Chen found a bunch of high-level healing medicines and energy-restoring pills from the storage ring that Han Feng had previously given to Xiao Yan and distributed them to everyone. After all, what Xiao Yan refined himself was just a drop in the bucket for these Dou Huangs and Dou Zongs. Only medicines refined by Han Feng's level could work.

Everyone looked at the pills in their hands, but Zi Yun was the only one who swallowed it without a second thought. In her opinion, Xiao Yan would never harm her, and she truly trusted Xiao Yan unconditionally.

But the others were not as thick-skinned as Zi Yun. No matter what Xiao Yan did just now or how the old man Mu Gu addressed Xiao Yan, they all guessed one thing.

The Xiao Yan in front of him didn't seem to be Xiao Yan himself.

"Who are you? Why are you using Xiao Yan's body?"

Yunshan stared at Yao Chen, and the others also had unfriendly looks in their eyes.

Yao Chen looked at the suspicion in everyone's eyes and sighed slightly in his heart.

As expected, it can't be hidden. Any normal person can see the difference between himself and Xiao Yan, except Zi Yun.

It seems that if I don't explain it clearly today, these people will not let me get away with it.

Come to think of it, everyone present here attaches great importance to Xiao Yan for various reasons, and now that Xiao Yan's body is occupied by an unknown soul, how could they just ignore it?

Well, although the situation just now seemed to be the result of Xiao Yan's instigation, in the final analysis, Xiao Yan came to the Black Horn Region for himself. In this sense, he is the culprit.

And now, the group of people in front of me are trying their best to protect me who is occupying Xiao Yan's body. If I still hide, I would be a coward.

Thinking of this, Yao Chen turned his head to look at Feng Qing'er, who was closest to him and had transformed into a human form.

"Girl, come and help me."

"what?"

Hearing Xiao Yan suddenly speaking to her, Feng Qing'er was stunned for a moment, then walked over in confusion and held Xiao Yan's shoulders.

Then Feng Qing'er noticed that Xiao Yan's body suddenly went limp. Before she could react, a white shadow slowly emerged from Xiao Yan's body and appeared in front of everyone.

Han Feng's heart couldn't help but stop when he looked at this extremely familiar shadow.

Although just now, she had almost confirmed it.

But when it really appeared in front of him, Han Feng still felt dazed.

She never expected that the person she had been looking for for so many years had been by her side all this time.

When Xiao Yixiang and Feng Qing'er saw the shadow, they were both stunned.

Isn't this the appearance of the corpse stored in the storage ring that Han Feng gave to Xiao Yan? ! What's going on? ? ?

The two of them were clearly not using their brains enough, and the others stared blankly at the shadow of the silver-haired woman in front of them who had a stunning appearance and temperament.

"My name is Yao Chen, and I'm Xiao Yan's teacher."

Yao Chen's face was serious and he introduced himself softly, which shocked everyone.

Xiao Yan's teacher? !

Yunshan immediately recalled what Xiao Yan said when he and Xiao Yan had a bet in the Jia Ma Empire, and Xiao Yan said that he had already worshipped his teacher.

It turns out that Xiao Yan’s teacher has always been in his body?

Hmm? Wait, the medicine will sink?

Yunshan frowned tightly, suddenly remembering that his old friend Fa Ma had once mentioned this name to him, and looked at Yao Chen in shock.

"Are you Medicine Master?!"

As soon as Yunshan said this, everyone except Ziyun, Xiao Yixiang, and Lingying, who already knew about it, showed the same expression as Yunshan.

The name Yao Chen may not be so well-known, but the name Yao Zunzhe is definitely a name that resounds throughout the continent!

The pinnacle that all alchemists dream of, the number one alchemist on the continent!

"Ah~ I see." Hai Bodong hugged his short arms in sudden realization and looked up at Yao Chen. "Back then in the Tagor Desert, the person who refined the Evil-Breaking Pill for me was not Xiao Yan, but you."

No wonder, Hai Bodong always felt that it was not right for a mere fighting master to refine a sixth-grade elixir. However, he was not the kind of person who would go to the bottom of things, so he did not ask Xiao Yan about this matter. Now he finally understood everything.

It’s really hard to believe that the famous Medicine Master is actually Xiao Yan’s teacher.

"Thank you very much for being willing to risk your lives for Xiao Yan. As his teacher, I sincerely thank you."

Yao Chen bowed his head deeply to everyone, which shocked everyone again.

They never thought in their lives that one day they would be thanked by Medicine Master. They couldn't tell whether they were happy or not, and they just felt like they were still asleep.

This is Medicine Master, the most famous alchemist in the continent. To put it bluntly, he is someone they need to look up to in their entire lives. It is natural that such a person would bow to them and feel that he is unreal.

"No need to thank me, I just came to help Xiao Yan."

Zi Yun was the first to speak with her arms folded. In her mind, she never thought that being the number one alchemist on the continent was such a great thing. She only came here because Xiao Yan was in danger. As for other people, no matter how noble their status was, Zi Yun didn't bother to pay attention to them.

Yunshan also came back to his senses and coughed twice.

"Ahem. Venerable Yao, there is no need to be so polite. This is what we should do."

By the time Yunshan finished speaking, everyone came back to their senses and accepted the fact that Xiao Yan was their teacher.

Feng Qing'er suddenly caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye and looked at the Little Medical Fairy whose face was inexplicably flushed.

"Xiao Yixian, what's wrong with you?"

"Ah? Nothing! Nothing happened!"

The little medical fairy's face turned red, and she waved her hands and shook her head repeatedly, her heart filled with shyness.

If that's the case, Yao Chen had always been by Xiao Yan's side, so wouldn't the things he did while Xiao Yan was asleep be all...

The Little Medical Fairy didn't dare to think any further. Her face turned extremely red, and even a little white steam was faintly emitted from it, which made Feng Qing'er even more confused.

Is she okay?

Although Feng Qing'er and Xiao Yan had some pink accidents, in Feng Qing'er's cognition, they were really just accidents. If she didn't actively recall them in the past month, she would have almost forgotten them. Naturally, she would not be as "guilty as a thief" as Xiao Yixian.

If it were any other time, seeing how adorable Little Medical Fairy was, Yao Chen would have to tease her a little.

But now, she was not in the mood.

Now all matters have been resolved and my existence has been made clear.

Next, it’s time to figure out what you’ve always wanted to know.

Yao Chen turned around slowly and looked at Han Feng who was still not in his daze, and whispered.

"Feng'er, do you have anything to say to your teacher?"

Hearing Yao Chen's words, everyone was stunned. Is this also Yao Chen's apprentice?

Yao Chen's question made Han Feng's eyes suddenly clear, and then his face returned to its cold expression again.

"I have nothing to say." Han Feng knelt on the ground and said coldly, "Kill me if you want. I won't resist."

Seeing Han Feng's attitude, Yao Chen frowned tightly.

"You know, that's not what we're talking about."

Yao Chen has been convinced from all the evidence that Han Feng must have betrayed her for another reason, and she just wants to know why.

Han Feng stared at Yao Chen closely, and said in a deep voice after a long time.

"Because you deserve to die, that's all."

"you!!!"

Yao Chen gritted his teeth and glared at his stubborn disciple. Now that things had come to this, he knew that she had betrayed him for other reasons, so why didn't she just say it?

Everyone looked at the two of them in confusion, not understanding what had happened between them. Aren't they master and disciple? Why did Han Feng look like he was going to die?

"Senior Medicine"

Suddenly, a weak voice was heard. Yao Chen was stunned and turned around to find that Xiao Yan, who was leaning on Feng Qing'er, had woken up at some point.

"Xiao Yan! Are you awake?!"

The Little Medical Fairy came forward happily, but immediately remembered her current situation and quickly moved away.

Xiao Yan forced himself to stand up with the help of Feng Qing'er. He glanced at the people present and the traces of battle left on their bodies. He guessed what had happened and solemnly clasped his fists to everyone.

"Sorry for causing trouble to everyone."

Although Xiao Yan had lost his rationality since his instincts took over his consciousness, his memories of that period were still very clear.

Therefore, I felt very guilty that I had implicated everyone around me without any care.

"It doesn't matter."

Yunshan waved his hand gently, while Haibodong crossed his arms and curled his lips helplessly.

"You kid, you've never made me feel at ease."

"Ha." Xiao Yan smiled awkwardly, then looked at Xiao Yixian with concern, "Xiao Yixian, are you injured?"

Xiao Yan clearly remembered that before he lost his mind, Xiao Yixian's chest was pierced by the Iron Protector.

"Oh, it's okay. Although I don't know why."

Xiao Yixian subconsciously touched her chest. If Xiao Yan hadn't mentioned it, she would have forgotten about it. She also didn't understand how she could still be alive when her chest had been pierced.

After hearing the vague answer from Little Medical Fairy, although Xiao Yan was confused, he still felt fortunate in his heart.

It's okay, that's good.

Xiao Yan looked at Yao Chen, his face solemn, and he knelt in front of Yao Chen, knocking his head heavily on the ground. He spoke in a deep voice amid the astonished gazes of everyone.

"My previous rude attitude towards you was truly disrespectful. I am willing to bear any punishment."

Chapter 358 Reason for Betrayal

Huh? Rude? When?

Yao Chen was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that when Xiao Yan borrowed his power, he wanted to dissuade Xiao Yan, but was interrupted by Xiao Yan.

This kid is really

Yao Chen waved his hand helplessly.

"That's not rude. It's normal that you got carried away at the time. I didn't take it to heart."

The children that Xiao Yan had taken care of and lived with day and night died in front of him. It was good enough that Xiao Yan was not crazy. What's more, he just interrupted him, which was not considered rude to Yao Chen.

"Not only did I contradict you, but I completely lost my mind at that time and completely ignored your warning, putting the people around me in danger." Xiao Yan leaned his head against the ground and said in a deep voice: "If I let this lesson go so easily, I will feel guilty."

Xiao Yan knew in his heart that the reason everyone was still alive was just because of luck. Even if everyone was safe now, it could not change the fact that he had dragged them into danger without permission.

Xiao Yan could not easily forgive himself for involving his teacher, friends, and those who supported him for various reasons because of his momentary resentment.

If I am not punished this time, I will dare to do it again next time out of hope, but when something irreversible happens, it will be too late.

But by then, the problem cannot be solved by just kowtowing and apologizing.

Looking at Xiao Yan who buried his head in the ground for a long time and refused to look up, Yao Chen's face was full of speechlessness.

She had long known how stubborn her disciple was, but it still gave her a headache every time she faced him.

What's more, it's not just Xiao Yan who is giving her a headache now.

Yao Chen glanced at Han Feng who was also kneeling, and seeing the determination in her light golden eyes, he could not help but sigh.

Should we say that these two are worthy of being senior and junior brothers?

Yao Chen rubbed his brows with a headache, why are all the disciples he accepted of this type???

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore."

As Yao Chen was speaking, Xiao Yan raised his head and frowned, and was about to say something when he was interrupted by Yao Chen.
