Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

Xiao Yan was a little confused when he heard this unfamiliar word, and Yao Chen gave an explanation in his heart.

(A low-level elixir of the Transformation Pill. After eating it, the Warcraft will become neither human nor Warcraft. It is a useless elixir that basically no one would refine. I don’t know which weirdo with nothing better to do developed it.)

Hearing Yao Chen's unceremonious look of contempt, Xiao Yan's mouth twitched slightly. It seemed to be the first time he heard Yao Chen call someone he had never met a weirdo. It showed how useless this Demonization Pill was.

At this time, Han Chong's eyes revealed disgust, and he said to Xiao Yan.

"Brother Xiao Yan, you must have never seen a snake demon in human form, right? It's so ugly that it makes people feel sick just by looking at it for a second."

"."

Xiao Yan's brows trembled slightly, and the corners of his mouth twitched wildly. He couldn't help but look towards the carriage in front of him where Cai Lin was riding.

A snake demon transformed into a human form. Is it ugly?

At this moment, Cai Lin's face poked out from the window of the van and glanced at Han Chong coldly, causing Han Chong's heart to suddenly tighten and his mind to become a mess.

No? How did I offend you?

Xiao Yan also saw the cold look Cai Lin gave Han Chong, and felt helpless.

Obviously, Cai Lin heard clearly what Han Chong said just now, which made Her Majesty the Queen very unhappy.

The Han family guards followed Han Xue's instructions and escorted the convoy through the canyon carefully. The pace also slowed down significantly. The journey that was supposed to take twenty minutes had not yet been completed after forty minutes. The originally clear weather was now covered with a layer of dark clouds, and there was also faint thunder in the clouds.

Finally, Han Xue, who was at the front, saw the exit. Looking at the light coming in from the canyon, joy could not help but be revealed in her cold eyes.

As long as we get out of this canyon, we will reach Tianbei City in an hour.

However, just when Han Xue was about to breathe a sigh of relief, there was a sudden sound of dense crawling from the surrounding canyon. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of poisonous snakes fell from the canyon and blocked the exit of the canyon tightly, making Han Xue's face extremely ugly in an instant.

Turning around, they saw that the convoy had been surrounded by poisonous snakes of various sizes and shapes, and a harsh sound that sounded very uncomfortable was echoing in the canyon.

"Hehehe~ You guys are a bunch of idiots. You actually want to slip away from under my nose?"

As the words fell, a nearly four-meter-tall black figure stood above the canyon. Its narrow eyes revealed sinisterness and cunningness, its body was covered with scales, and its claws and paws flashed a frightening cold light. It looked like a giant snake with long arms and legs that could walk upright.

Demonic snake, Xia Mang.

"Hehehe~ You should know my rules, right?"

Xia Mang stuck out his tongue and glanced at the convoy below, his eyes filled with greed.

Han Chong's face was gloomy. He rode his horse to the front of the convoy, let out a long sigh, forced a smile reluctantly, and took out the storage ring he had prepared in advance from his arms.

"Commander Xia, we are the Han family's convoy. Please accept this small gift."

There is no way. A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. The Han family has sent people to deal with Xia Mang before, but this snake is very cunning and will run away at the slightest danger. It really makes people helpless.

Xia Mang looked at Han Chong, waved his hand and grabbed the ring in his hand, giving an uncomfortable and sinister smile.

"Okay, okay, it seems you guys are pretty good at it."

Hearing Xia Mang's words, Han Chong breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

"Then Commander Xia, can you please let us go?"

"It's okay to let you go, but..." Xia Mang's eyes flashed with lust, and his sharp claws pointed at Han Xue, "That girl, you have to stay with me."

Chapter 540: The Poor Man Who Ambush Dou Zun

"you?!!"

Xia Mang's words made Han Chong and the guards' faces change drastically, and Han Xue's face also became extremely gloomy.

"Commander Xia, this is the second young lady of my Han family! Are you trying to offend the Han family?!"

Han Chong glared at Xia Mang. It was true that the Han family couldn't catch Xia Mang, but it was simply a pipe dream for Xia Mang to fight against the Han family!

Xia Mang himself knew very well that with his strength he could only harass the Han family and collect some tolls, and it would be fine if they both gave each other a way out. But if he really dared to have any bad intentions towards Han Xue, the ancestor of the Han family would chase him to the ends of the earth and peel off his snake scales!

This wasn't the first time they had met Xia Mang. Previously, they had let him go after collecting the money. Why did they do this today? Was this demon snake crazy?

"Haha~Han family?" Xia Mang smiled sinisterly, spitting out his tongue, looking at Han Xue with lustful eyes, "I didn't care about it before because I was giving face to your Han family. Do you really think I'm afraid of your Han family?"

"Don't worry, I'm very gentle to women. Leave her here to serve me for a while, and I promise to send her back safely after I get tired of playing with her."

Xia Mang's words were full of arrogance and obscenity, and Han Xue's cold face finally showed anger. A cold light flashed in the ring in her hand, and she grasped a long sword in her hand and cursed angrily.

"Snake! Even if I die, I will never let you succeed!"

"If you want to touch the Second Miss, then you have to step over our dead bodies first!"

Han Chong was also angered by Xia Mang's words. He drew his sword and roared in anger. The Han family guards also showed anger in their eyes and glared at Xia Mang with hatred.

When Xia Mang saw this scene, instead of getting angry, he let out a sharp and piercing laugh.

"Want to fight? Sure~" Xia Mang clenched his sharp claws, his voice was very sinister, "I thought if you just handed over this girl, I would let the rest of you live, but since you want to die, then all of you stay here and be food for my babies."

"Beast!!!"

Veins popped up on Han Xue's face, and the surging fighting spirit of the Five-Star Dou King burst out. She grasped the long sword and prepared to rush forward to fight Xia Mang to the death.

However, at this moment, a hand suddenly rested on Han Xue's shoulder, easily suppressing her burst of fighting spirit. Han Xue's eyes instantly showed astonishment, and she turned to look at Xiao Yan who had come behind her at some point.

How come I am so vindictive?

"Ms. Han Xue, please step back."

Xiao Yan spoke softly as he walked past Han Xue to the front of the convoy. Han Chong also stared at Xiao Yan in a daze.

He suddenly felt that this approachable younger generation now gave people a completely different feeling than before.

"Little Brother Xiao Yan, what are you doing?"

"Don't worry, Uncle Han Chong, I'll take care of it."

Xiao Yan turned his head and gave Han Chong a warm smile, then looked at Xia Mang, his eyes instantly becoming grim.

Xia Mang looked at Xiao Yan who suddenly stood up, and frowned slightly, but he did not feel anything wrong from Xiao Yan. He was just like an ordinary person, and a hint of doubt appeared in his narrow snake pupils.

"Boy, judging from the clothes you are wearing, you are not from the Han family, right? Are you going to stand up for these people?"

"No, you misunderstood. This has nothing to do with whether you come forward or not." Xiao Yan responded calmly, raising his hand and slowly rolling up his sleeves. "Whether you can find Miss Han Xue and the others or not, as long as I run into scum like Commander Xia, you will definitely die."

Xiao Yan said this in an extremely calm manner, so calm that it did not sound at all credible to others. Han Xue and Han Chong were also stunned. They had been with Xiao Yan for almost a day, and he felt like an ordinary person.

How could a strong person in their perception be as approachable as Xiao Yan? Even though the Han family's ancestor was very kind, he would reveal a kind of coercion that was difficult to conceal when talking to others.

When Xia Mang heard Xiao Yan's words, he was angry at first, but his magic beast instinct revealed a bad premonition. Before he could open his mouth, Xiao Yan continued.

“Those who are hiding in the dark, please come out.” Xiao Yan completely ignored Xia Mang, whose face was getting uglier and uglier, and looked towards Yagu in front of him. “Looking at the reactions of Miss Han Xue and the others just now, I guess Commander Xia didn’t make things too difficult for them because he was afraid of the Han family. This time he suddenly dared to ask for Miss Han Xue by name, most likely because of your instructions.”

Anyone else? !

Xiao Yan's words made Han Xue and Han Chong suddenly stunned. They looked in the direction of Xiao Yan's gaze, but they only saw an empty cliff and nothing else.

The scene was silent for a while. Just when Han Xue and Han Chong thought that Xiao Yan was talking nonsense, two middle-aged men who looked to be about 40 or 50 years old slowly walked out from behind the cliff. Several black shadows flashed around them. Without exception, they were all Dou Wang!

Han Chong and Han Xue also saw the appearance of the two middle-aged men in the lead, and their faces instantly turned cold.

Hong Mu and Hong Lie, the elders of the Hong family who have been fighting openly and secretly with the Han family for many years, are both high-level Dou Huangs!

At this moment, Han Xue and Han Chong reacted immediately. No wonder Xia Mang suddenly became so aggressive and fearless. He must be in collusion with the Hong family!

"Hong Mu! Hong Lie! How dare you collude with Xia Mang to harm my young lady? Do you really want to go to war with the Han family?!"

Han Chong questioned angrily, but Hong Mu and the others ignored him and looked at Xiao Yan, narrowing their eyes slightly.

"Boy, who are you?"

"I am just a passerby who got help from Miss Han Xue by chance." Xiao Yan glanced at the Dou Wang around him and said calmly, "When you receive a favor, you should repay it. I will never let you harm the lives of the Han family. But if you are willing to leave, Xiao Yan will not force you."

Xiao Yan's plain yet sincere words sounded very arrogant to the ears of the Hong family and others. Before they could get angry, Xiao Yan raised his hand, pointed his index and middle fingers at Xia Mang, with murderous intent in his eyes, and said in a cold voice.

"But I will definitely take the life of Commander Xia. If you are determined to protect him, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Xiao Yan's words clearly did not cause any disturbance, but they made Xia Mang inexplicably feel fear from the bottom of his heart. Even though he was a cold-blooded monster, he actually felt the chill at this moment and could not help but tremble.

Xiao Yan has always been like this. Anyone he is determined to kill must have crossed his bottom line.

Although Xia Mang was instructed by the Hong family to rob the Han family of their money and women, it is certain that he has done this many times before. The reason why he did not cause too much trouble to the Han family before was simply because he could not afford to offend them.

If facing those weaklings who were unable to resist, Xiao Yan would definitely not believe that Xia Mang was just collecting some so-called tolls, and he would definitely do something even more inhumane.

In an instant, Xiao Yan’s fighting spirit exploded. Feeling the overwhelming power he exuded, everyone’s eyes were filled with shock.

Nine Star Fighting Emperor!

Han Xue, Han Chong, and the Han family guards were all in disbelief. After a day of getting along with Xiao Yan, they thought he was just an ordinary person who was kind and easy to get along with. They never expected that he was such a powerful person!

Hong Mu and the others felt Xiao Yan's sudden outburst of fighting spirit, and their eyes showed horror. They did not expect that such an unremarkable young man would possess such strength.

Afterwards, Hong Mu recovered first, with disdain revealed in his eyes.

He, Xiao Yan, is a nine-star Dou Huang, and so are he and Hong Lie. What is there to be afraid of?

"Nine-star Douhuang, it's indeed unexpected." Hong Mu's face was cold, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, "But it's still a long way to go to take Xia Mang's life away from us with just this strength."

It’s not that Hong Mu thinks highly of Xia Mang, but Xiao Yan is only a nine-star Dou Huang. It is indeed too arrogant for him to say such things in front of two nine-star Dou Huangs, one four-star Dou Huang, and several Dou Wangs.

"From what you said, you don't want to retreat?"

Hong Mu did not answer Xiao Yan's question, but his arrogant eyes had already given the answer silently.

Xiao Yan was not surprised by this result.

These people all looked the same, as if they had discussed it beforehand.

No coffin, no tears.

Xiao Yan also did not intend to tell them that there were several great gods in the carriage. If he did, they would most likely flee without stopping.

But Xiao Yan would never do that, because he would not let those who bully the weak and fear the strong survive.

When facing this kind of people, Xiao Yan would only give them two choices.

Either accept your peace proposal without knowing the difference in power, or be buried here while knowing the difference in power.

Although these people often only choose the latter.

"Forget it, since I don't want to retreat, things will be easier for me."

Xiao Yan shook his arms, and black chains sprang out from his body, circling leisurely around him, and his aura seemed even more fierce.

At this moment, not only Xia Mang, but also Hong Mu and Hong Lie felt something was wrong.

When a person faces such a huge gap in strength between the two sides, he is not panicked at all and does not even look like he is ready to die. This does not make sense no matter how you look at it, unless this person is mentally ill.

After Hong Mu and Hong Lie had a bad premonition, what happened next proved how correct their premonition was.

However, the person who verified their hunch was not Xiao Yan.

[Xiao Yan, keep them for me.]

Just as Xiao Yan was about to swing the black chain, a majestic and cold voice suddenly came from the van, resounding throughout the canyon, causing Xiao Yan to suddenly stop.

It wasn't just Xiao Yan. Everyone present felt panic and fear from the inside out when they heard the voice. Even the hundreds of poisonous snakes that surrounded the convoy all bowed their heads in submission, their bodies trembling wildly.

These poisonous snakes do not have self-intelligence, so no one knows why this happens, but Xia Mang knows it very well.

This is a suppression from blood, which is absolutely irresistible!

Hong Mu and Hong Lie's eyes were full of fear, their bodies were almost shaking like sieves, but they didn't dare to move.

Just one sentence could frighten them so much, how strong is the person in the van? !

Han Xue and Han Chong stared blankly at the van, searching for memories that were a little blurry due to the shock. If there was no confusion, the voice seemed to be from Xiao Yan's wife, the woman named Cai Lin.

Under the gaze of everyone, a slender jade leg wrapped in purple stockings stretched out from the van. The bare jade feet lightly tapped the air. After taking a few short steps, the tall and graceful figure was already high above the sky. The bright red long hair and purple cheongsam swayed leisurely with the breeze in the canyon. The golden narrow snake eyes were like a biting cold winter, staring at the Hong family.

To be more precise, he was staring at Xia Mang who was hiding among the Hong family.

Snakes are very vengeful. Cai Lin kept it in mind when Han Chong told Xiao Yan that the snake demon was very ugly after transforming.

But now it seems that what Han Chong said was indeed right.

Xia Mang was also staring at Cai Lin above him in a trance. Looking at that beauty that seemed like a masterpiece of jade carved by God, there was not a trace of lust in his heart, only fear of death!

Cai Lin slowly raised her jade hand and pointed her jade finger at Xia Mang, her tone extremely grim.

"You are such a beast, you are so ugly that it makes me want to vomit."

Poof! ! !

Without any warning, Xia Mang didn't even have time to scream before his body exploded. Flesh and blood flew everywhere, splashing onto the dazed faces of Hong Mu and Hong Lie, staining half of their bodies blood red. There were still some disgusting pieces of flesh and snake scales hanging on their bodies.
