Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

The old man Yin Gu glanced at everyone present. After a moment, Tie Wu took action first. He took out the letter that Xiao Yan had given him earlier and placed it on the table, expressing his determination loudly.

"I firmly stand on the opposite side of Xiao Yan! I will never let this brat continue to be so rampant!"

Seeing Tiewu take the lead in expressing his opinion, Su Mei glanced at him indifferently and spoke lightly.

"I second the motion."

After Su Mei, the leaders of the Black Skull Tomb and the Blood Clan also took out letters respectively, and clearly stated their opposing positions to Xiao Yan.

Seeing that everyone had made their stance clear, Old Man Yin Bone narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke in a deep voice.

"Not only is Xiao Yan's strength far beyond his peers, he is also surrounded by many powerful people. More importantly, his methods are so fierce that it is hard to guard against him. If we don't unite, I'm afraid that any single force of ours will not be able to compete with him."

"That's right. When I first found out that even the owner of the Heavenly Medical Hall was Xiao Yan's man, I couldn't sleep well for several nights."

Su Mei said lightly, and the others nodded in agreement.

Tianyi Hall was a small force among the many small forces in the Black Horn Region two years ago. It had almost nothing. Although the unknown owner of Tianyi Hall was a Dou Huang, he was far inferior to these old forces.

Therefore, no one cared about the Tianyi Clinic, and all their attention was focused on suppressing other forces that were more likely to pose a threat to them.

This is the Black Horn Region. He is just a Dou Huang. As long as he does not have enough resources to develop his power, there is nothing to worry about.

The development of Tianyi Hall in the past two years has not been that rapid. Until a while ago, Tianyi Hall was only slightly larger than a small force and was at the bottom among the medium-sized forces. It was not qualified at all to be looked at directly by the old forces like them.

However, when the Tian Medical Clinic announced its merger into the [Evil Prison], everyone was stunned.

They couldn't understand why Tianyi Pavilion, a medium-sized power, was merged into Xiao Yan's power without any notice. Would the owner of Tianyi Pavilion really be willing to give the foundation he had worked so hard for to Xiao Yan? Without even a chance to resist?

But soon, when the owner of the Tian Medical Clinic announced that he would be the second-in-command of the Evil Prison, everyone understood.

The owner of that clinic that day was Xiao Yan’s man!

And it’s not just Tianyi Hall! Two years ago, when Xiao Yan first stepped into the Black Horn Region, he created more than just the Evil Prison! Many of those new forces that took advantage of the chaos to join the Black Horn Region battle were Xiao Yan’s people! Tianyi Hall was just the most representative one!

Xiao Yan knew from the beginning that if he focused on developing the Evil Prison as a single force, no matter how fast it developed, it would inevitably be noticed by these old forces, and the Evil Prison would most likely be strangled in the middle of its development.

Therefore, in order to avoid making these old forces feel threatened, Xiao Yan split up his own forces and developed them independently. This was to relax their vigilance and make them feel that these small forces were independent and opposed to each other and could not amount to anything.

The reason why Xiao Yan has been able to quickly integrate most of the forces in the Black Horn Region in the past two years is that, in addition to the local forces, most of those foreign forces are his people! What Xiao Yan did was simply to gather them together!

It's terrifying that Xiao Yan can actually use such a strategy!

It can be seen from this incident that Xiao Yan was aiming to unify the Black Horn Region from the very beginning, and not just to take advantage of the chaos to get a piece of the pie in the Black Horn Region!

They underestimated Xiao Yan's ambition!

"Damn it! I've been busy for most of my life, but a little devil took advantage of me!"

Tiewu gritted his teeth in anger, and the old man Yin Gu whispered to comfort him.

"Fortunately, it's not too late to wake up now. As long as we sincerely unite, we may not be unable to defeat Xiao Yan's forces."

At this moment, the door of the room behind Su Mei was opened, and members of the Rakshasa Sect walked in. The other four people showed some displeasure on their faces when they saw the members of the Rakshasa Sect walked in without even knocking on the door.

But due to the current situation, there was really no need to get into a conflict with Su Mei over such a small matter, so no one said anything.

Then she saw the Rakshasa sect member whispering something in Su Mei's ear. After hearing the report from her subordinate, Su Mei was stunned at first, then glanced at the Yin Bone old man with contempt and waved her hand lightly.

"Understood, you go down first."

After the subordinate left and closed the door, the old man Yin Bone glanced at her and asked in a low voice.

"What happened?"

"Nothing." Su Mei raised her hand and played with her nails without interest. "My men just received news that the bodies of two Dou Huangs and four Dou Wangs were found in the corner of the Black Horn Region. They seem to be your people~"

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of Old Man Yin Bone, Tiewu, and the leader of the Black Skull Tomb changed suddenly.

Gathering people to attack Xiao Yan was exactly the secret plan of the three of them.

But I didn't expect that the news of failure would come back so quickly.

"According to the intelligence gathered by my men, it seems that there were only Xiao Yan and Xiao Ning at the time." Su Mei laughed wantonly, "Two Dou Huangs and four Dou Wangs, but they couldn't even take down a Dou Wang and a Dou Ling, and were killed in return. If this is made public, it would be considered a great shame, right?"

"Su Mei! Do you really want to die?!"

Hearing Su Mei's blatant sarcasm, Tie Wu couldn't help it anymore. He stood up and pointed at Su Mei and yelled angrily. However, Su Mei didn't react at all and didn't even look at him.

It was still the old man Yin Gu who took the overall situation into consideration and raised his hand to hold down Tiewu.

Tiewu was young and hot-tempered after all. Old Man Yin Gu had heard countless sarcastic remarks like Su Mei's and had long been immune to them. Naturally, he would not get angry about it.

What's more, what Su Mei said was not wrong.

Two Dou Huangs and four Dou Wangs were killed by a Dou Wang and a Dou Ling. This was not only a great shame and humiliation, it could be described as [impossible].

He knew that some people on Xiao Yan's side were much stronger than their peers, so the people he organized and sent out were just for testing. In Old Man Yin Gu's expectation, even if they could not kill Xiao Yan, they could at least retreat safely.

However, they didn't expect that they were all killed by Xiao Yan.

At the same time, it also made Old Man Yingu completely understand that the combat power of Xiao Yan's side was far beyond their imagination, and this kind of test was meaningless.

If you want to break this deadlock, you must mobilize all your forces and not have any chance of luck!

"Everyone, as you can hear from the news just now, our alliance cannot be delayed." The old man Yin Gu stood up, glanced at the others and said in a serious voice: "I would like to recommend myself to be the leader of the alliance because I think I am the most suitable person."

The old man Yin Gu paused, then added a sentence to avoid other people's dissatisfaction.

"Of course, if someone else wants to be the leader, I can hand over the position of leader immediately. What do you think?"

"I have no opinion."

Su Mei spoke first, and Tie Wu immediately seconded. Although the leaders of the Black Skull Tomb and the Blood Clan were a little hesitant, they nodded and acknowledged the identity of the Yin Bone Old Man as the leader.

The reason why Old Man Yingu recommended himself was not to flatter himself. Among all the people present, Old Man Yingu was the oldest, the strongest, and the most prestigious. Compared with other people present, Old Man Yingu was the one who could convince them the most.

"Since everyone has no objection, I will take over the position of leader." The old man Yin Gu said softly, "I know that you are all from the Black Horn Region. No matter what you say, you must not trust each other in your hearts, and there must be hatred between you."

The old man Yin Gu glanced at Su Mei and continued.

"But at least this time, I hope that you can put aside your past grudges and fight against Xiao Yan together. You all understand that if Xiao Yan really unifies the Black Horn Region, it will not benefit any of us. We cannot accept the policies he implements within his sphere of influence."

The Black Horn Region is a paradise for the strong who prey on the weak, and this is a fact recognized by everyone.

However, within the sphere of influence governed by Xiao Yan, those who prey on the weak are condemned by everyone, and they fall from heaven to hell.

Just as the name of Xiao Yan's force suggests, it is actually [Evil Prison].

However, these old-established forces were strongly opposed to this. Their founding was based on oppressing and robbing the weak, but now Xiao Yan wanted to completely eliminate the foundation of their fortune. How could they accept this?

Even if they surrendered to Xiao Yan, their philosophy of the survival of the fittest would be completely destroyed.

This was a clash of ideas, so they would never surrender and would fight Xiao Yan to the end! Teach this young man and let him understand what the Black Horn Region was like!

Looking at the other people with determined eyes, Su Mei narrowed her eyes slightly, her heart was slightly moved, and her jade hand gently stroked the ring.

Lying safely in the ring was another letter that Xiao Yan had given her alone.

(What are you talking about? Let me choose for myself) Su Mei raised her lips slightly, with a gleam in her eyes, (There is no need to choose at all, handsome Xiao Yan~)

Chapter 420 Confession

“Ahhhhhhhh!!! It hurts!!!”

Inside the Tianyi Clinic room, Xiao Ning's screams continued, the sound was so miserable that it made people feel distressed. Xiao Yan, who was standing beside him, had his mouth twitching slightly, and he handed over a bottle of pills in his hand.

"Brother Xiao Ning, don't hold on any longer, take the pills quickly."

"Hey! How much is the medicine?! It's better to give me the money directly instead of the medicine. I can visit Yihongyuan more often!" Xiao Ning raised his hand to refuse righteously, and waved his hand with a grin, "Don't worry, it's just a minor injury. It's nothing serious. I think it will heal today if you leave it alone."

Is it just a minor injury?

Xiao Yan's brows kept twitching, and he really admired his cousin Xiao Ning in his heart.

It was a miracle for a Dou Ling to survive by withstanding the joint attack of three Dou Wangs. Xiao Ning didn't even have any missing limbs. He just looked miserable on the surface, that's all.

And although Xiao Yan turned back to help deal with the three Dou Kings after he dealt with the two Dou Queens, if the three Dou Kings had not relied on their ability to fly to deal with Xiao Ning, they would have been killed by Xiao Ning long ago.

Even Yao Chen sighed personally that in terms of taking a beating, Xiao Yan was far inferior to the current Xiao Ning.

"Hana, cousin Xiao Ning, you should have a good rest first."

"Oh~ Just go and do your thing, don't worry about me."

Xiao Ning waved his hand generously, and Xiao Yan turned around and prepared to leave the room. After thinking it over again and again, he returned and placed the pill on the table.

"You'd better keep this pill. If you really can't bear it, take it yourself." Xiao Yan said. Seeing the intention in Xiao Ning's eyes, he raised his index finger and threatened: "Don't think about selling this pill to visit Yihong Courtyard. Now all the places in the Black Horn Region that can do business are within the influence of the Evil Prison. If you dare to sell this pill, I will get the news immediately. Then I will tell Sister Xiao Yu about it. What happens to you afterwards is none of my business."

"Well"

As soon as Xiao Yan said this, Xiao Ning instantly wilted like an eggplant hit by frost, with his head drooping. Seeing this, Xiao Yan smiled helplessly, turned around and left the room.

When I arrived at the main hall of Tianyi Clinic, I happened to hear the respectful welcome from the guard at the door.

"Master! Welcome back!"

Then, a woman with a hat covering her face walked in. After seeing Xiao Yan, she paused for a moment, walked up to him, raised her jade hand and took off the hat, and a cold face appeared in front of Xiao Yan.

The owner of Tianyi Clinic, Little Medical Fairy.

Two years have made Xiao Yixiang look more mature, and her temperament has become closer to Han Feng's cold and aloof. At first sight, one would think she is a pure iceberg beauty.

"Xiao Yan, except for the few forces of Tianyin Sect, the rest of the forces have been gathered." Xiao Yixian put the bamboo hat on the table beside her, looked at Xiao Yan and said softly: "I have also dealt with some of those who swore to die rather than surrender. Do you have any objection?"

"Well, thank you for your trouble."

Xiao Yan nodded slightly, without criticizing Xiao Yixian's actions.

I have done my utmost and used every possible means to satisfy those forces. If there are still people who are unwilling to surrender under such circumstances, it means that the concepts of both sides are simply irreconcilable.

The other party will not give in, and neither will Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan would never righteously accuse such people of having wrong ideas, nor would he wantonly declare that his own ideas were correct. Perhaps for the current world, the idea of ​​the survival of the fittest that those people believe in is the correct one.

However, this has nothing to do with right or wrong. At least from Xiao Yan's own point of view, he can never accept the existence of the concept of the survival of the fittest.

In order to avoid future trouble, it is best to directly deal with people who have irreconcilable ideas.

"Your business is my business, there's no need to bother."

The Little Medical Fairy smiled faintly, her eyes filled with undisguised emotion, which made Xiao Yan's expression stagnate. He looked away slightly and changed the subject.

"Speaking of which, Little Doctor Fairy, how is your health?"

Seeing Xiao Yan's reaction, Little Medical Fairy's brows twitched slightly, and she cursed him in her heart, "Coward."

Immediately, a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes.

Given her current situation, it would be better for her not to ask for too much, even if it was just for Xiao Yan.

The little medical fairy adjusted her mentality and answered.

"Fortunately, I was agitated again some time ago, but I calmed down thanks to the medicine made by Senior Sister Han Feng." Little Medical Fairy said, frowning slightly, "But she said that it's not a solution to continue like this. In the past two years, I have been suppressing the improvement of my strength in order to prevent the outbreak of the evil poison body, but in fact, the poison in my body has been accumulating more and more and is about to overflow. If it weren't for the suppression of the ice attribute fighting spirit, it would have exploded long ago."

During the past two years, Xiao Yixian had suffered from outbreaks of the evil poison body more than once. Fortunately, with the help of two top alchemists, Han Feng and Yao Chen, Xiao Yixian was able to escape danger every time and stabilize the evil poison body.

Xiao Yan had mentioned this to Xiao Yixian more than once, hoping that she could rest and recuperate, but Xiao Yixian refused, saying that she knew her physical condition best.

In fact, this is true. In the case of Xiao Yixian, there is not much difference whether she cultivates herself or not.

". If we want to solve it completely, we still have to find the Bodhi Body Saliva."

Xiao Yan frowned tightly and said in a deep voice.

The treasure of heaven and earth, the Bodhi Body Transforming Saliva, if taken, can have the effect of transforming one's body into a new one, and improving some of the abnormal physical constitutions.

Both Han Feng and Yao Chen agreed that Bodhi Body Saliva was the best way to resolve Little Medical Fairy's current situation.

But this kind of thing is rare in a hundred years. During this year, Xiao Yan also entrusted the leader of the Eight Gates, Yuan Yi, to help find it. Since he could hold an auction in the Black Horn Region, he must have more ways than ordinary people. However, there has been no news until now.

"It's okay. I'm still alive today and I've found what I want to do. I'm already very satisfied no matter what the outcome is."

Little Medical Fairy leaned lightly on the table and said this, her words were full of calmness, just like Boss Yao before he died.

Hearing Xiao Yixian's uncomfortable words, Xiao Yan frowned tightly, and said in a deep voice after a long time.

"Xiao Yixian, I will never let you die." Xiao Yan was facing Xiao Yixian, staring at her closely, "This is not only my promise to Boss Yao, I also can't imagine a future without you. I will definitely find a way to save you!"

Perhaps at the beginning, Xiao Yan really only wanted to fulfill Boss Yao's dying wish, so he risked his life to save Xiao Yixian.

But after three years of getting along, Xiao Yan himself realized that his feelings for Xiao Yixian were not just friends, nor were they lovers, but something in between. Besides, Xiao Yixian had given so much for him. If he could not do everything he could for her, Xiao Yan would look down on himself for the rest of his life.

Seeing the determination revealed in Xiao Yan's black eyes, Little Medical Fairy was stunned for a moment, then smiled faintly.

"Even if it means sacrificing your own life?"
