Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

Anyway, Mu She is dead, and there is no one in Qingshan Town who can resist me. I will kill all the people in Qingshan Town.

(Xiao Yanzi!!!)

! ! ! ! !

Yao Chen's exclamation woke Xiao Yan up suddenly. His scarlet eyes turned back to black, and the black energy on his body dissipated instantly. His mind, which had just been infected by negative emotions, also regained clarity.

The next second, Xiao Yan's body was suddenly covered in cold sweat, he was panting continuously, and his heart was beating violently.

One hand covered his mouth, and his dark eyes trembled.

Was that me just now?

How could I have such dangerous thoughts?

After waking up, Xiao Yan couldn't help but feel a little scared.

If it weren't for Yao Chen's exclamation, I would probably have really taken action.

Why do I have this kind of idea that I hate the most, to rely on my own power to do whatever I want?

Bang!

Under the mercenaries' suspicious gazes, Xiao Yan clenched his fists and smashed them hard on his own face.

After successfully killing the highest-level Mu Snake in Qingshan Town, did he become intoxicated with his own power?

Xiao Yan was really scared.

The power is so fascinating.

Xiao Yan finally experienced it firsthand and understood why those who believed in the law of the jungle believed in it.

The pleasure of being above everyone else, the freedom to do whatever you want, no matter how disgusting the action is, without having to worry about the consequences.

Because no one will cause trouble for themselves!

But for Xiao Yan, this is the most terrifying thing!

This means that I have lost my original heart!

Your own heart is the final bottom line for your behavior!

If I have lost my original heart, how can I call myself a human being? !

Xiao Yan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth caused by his own attack, and determination appeared in his eyes again.

My righteous path is far more than that!!!

(Thank you, Mr. Yao!)

Xiao Yan thanked Yao Chen in his heart.

He knew very well that if he had acted according to his evil thoughts just now, he might never come back.

I can never go back to who I am now.

After hearing Xiao Yan's thanks, Yao Chen was silent for a long time, and finally spoke slowly.

(After this incident is over, don’t practice cultivation if you still want to continue on your righteous path.)

(yes!)

Xiao Yan responded in his heart that he would do the same even if Yao Chen didn't say it.

The purpose of working hard to gain power is to practice your own righteous path, not to become a slave to power!

Putting the cart before the horse is the most foolish thing, and also the easiest mistake to make.

Xiao Yan looked down at Mu She's body and put it into his storage ring. He then turned around and put Mu Li's body back into the ring as well. Then he walked past the mercenaries who were standing there in a daze and left them a message.

"Your injured companions are behind Wanyaozhai, go and treat them."

After saying that, Xiao Yan quickly walked towards the Wolf Head Mercenary Group under the gaze of the mercenaries.

He had promised Xiao Yixiang that he would bring Boss Yao back safely, and this was his primary goal now.

As for the bodies of Mu She and Mu Li, we will find a place to bury them after the matter is over.

"that."

"Ok?"

Hearing the voice behind him, Xiao Yan turned his head slightly and looked at the mercenary who spoke in confusion. When he saw Xiao Yan's gaze turning to him, the mercenary's pupils were first frightened, and then he mustered up the courage to speak.

"Excuse me, are you going to the Wolf Head Mercenary Group to rescue Boss Yao?"

"Ah."

Xiao Yan nodded lightly, and the mercenary continued.

"Be careful, there is a Douling in the Wolf Head Mercenary Group."

Dou Ling?

Xiao Yan's expression froze for a moment. Wasn't this Mu Snake the highest level in the entire Qingshan Town? How come another Dou Ling appeared?

Noticing Xiao Yan's confusion, the mercenary began to explain again.

"We were not originally mercenaries of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, but because Mu She suddenly received a large amount of funds some time ago to win us over, everyone has guessed something about the conflict between the Wolf Head Mercenary Group and Wan Yao Zhai. Originally, we were unwilling to join, even if we had more money. After all, we have been saved by Boss Yao and Little Medical Fairy in some way, and we don't want to be their enemy."

"But Mu She not only offered money, but also death threats! If we don't join the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, the Dou Ling behind him will kill us! There was a mercenary group leader who fought against Mu She to the end, but he was killed by that Dou Ling because he refused to accept Mu She's annexation of the mercenary group!"

Although these mercenaries are just rough guys, many of them have not lost their conscience to the point of forgetting the grace of saving their lives.

But in the final analysis, they are just ordinary people. It is already their limit to ask them to resist the temptation of money for their savior. Few people have the determination to sacrifice their own lives for their savior.

No matter how guilty they felt, they still stood on the opposite side of Wanyaozhai.

Although they were forced, it was their own choice.

Between choosing death and turning their swords against their former saviors, most of them chose the latter.

Those who chose the former all lost their lives.

After all, they are just weaklings. Faced with the orders of the strong, they have no third option except to obey or die.

This is what is called, having no control over one's own actions.

Xiao Yan stared at the mercenary in a daze, his words constantly echoing in his mind.

In an instant, I realized something.

Perhaps those who were hopeless in his eyes did not want to follow the right path, but had to deviate from it for the sake of survival, or for the sake of their families, or for various other reasons.

It was impossible for Xiao Yan to ask everyone to be like him and to be willing to face death in order to uphold the righteous path.

Moreover, Xiao Yan himself was also clear about one thing: even for himself, when the life of someone he cared about was threatened, he would most likely do something that deviated from the right path.

Just like what happened just now.

(So, that’s how it is)

Xiao Yan's heart suddenly became clear.

Many people do not want to follow the right path, but the environment of this world does not allow them to follow the right path.

The price of taking the right path is simply not something that ordinary people can afford.

"Thank you." Xiao Yan smiled after understanding this and bowed his head to thank the mercenary solemnly, "Thank you very much!"

Then, without looking back, he ran towards the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's base, his steps firm on the ground.

I also have new plans for my future path.

Xiao Yan once believed from the bottom of his heart that only by working hard to promote righteousness can he change the law of the jungle in this world.

But now, he understands.

You don't necessarily have to be the one to change the world.

He should never dream of becoming the spokesperson for righteousness.

This is an extremely selfish and arrogant idea.

What he should pursue is that even without him, the world can continue to move forward on the right path!

Let the righteous path spread to every corner of the world! Just like the idea of ​​the survival of the fittest is deeply rooted in people's hearts!!!

Chapter 116 Come on, Xiao Yanzi

Most of the members of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group had followed Mu She to Wanyaozhai, and there were no other members of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group left here except for the two members guarding the prison.

Xiao Yan arrived at the fortress of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, looked at the open gate, and frowned slightly.

Not even a gatekeeper was left behind. It seemed that Mu She was really determined to take his life this time.

Xiao Yan stepped into the fortress. The blocked light made the interior of the fortress appear extremely dark. Only the torches on both sides of the passage illuminated the road ahead which was only three people wide.

After passing through this passage, Xiao Yan came to a rather spacious hall. On the high platform at the end of the hall stood a luxurious stone chair. From its luxury alone, one could tell that it was where Mu She, the leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, usually sat.

On both sides of the hall, there are two doors. One of these four doors should be connected to the prison where Boss Yao is imprisoned.

Hmm. If I had known earlier, I would have brought someone to lead the way.

Xiao Yan knocked his head with a headache.

(At this point, I can only go through all four doors.)

Just as Xiao Yan was about to take action, Yao Chen in the ring spoke.

(No need to go through so much trouble, Xiao Yanzi, we can just use our soul power to be careful!!!)

"Um?!"

Xiao Yan's nerves suddenly tensed up, and without thinking, he grabbed the Xuan Zhong ruler behind him and swung it towards his side!

boom!

As the Xuan Zhong Chi suffered a powerful impact, Xiao Yan's body flew backwards and hit the wall hard, with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.

"Huh? Pretty quick reaction."

The attacker looked at Xiao Yan with a hint of surprise. According to his expectation, this attack should have killed Xiao Yan directly.

Xiao Yan, who was deeply embedded in the wall, jumped down from the wall, squatted on the ground holding the Xuan Zhong Chi, and stared at the man in front of him who was wrapped in a cloak. Yao Chen also reminded him in his heart.

(Xiao Yanzi, be careful! That's a Douling!)

Dou Ling!

One level higher than the strongest Mu Snake in Qingshan Town!!!

Although he had been reminded by the mercenary before coming, Xiao Yan still felt doubtful after actually seeing it.

In the Jia Ma Empire, Dou Ling is a guest of honor no matter which family he is placed in. Why does he appear in this small Qingshan Town?

At this moment, Yao Chen in the ring spoke again.

Only this time the tone was quite heavy.

(Xiao Yanzi, besides this guy in front of you, there are two others hiding in the dark.) Yao Chen frowned tightly, (And their levels are also Dou Ling.)

(What?!)

Xiao Yan was stunned.

Three Douling?!

Xiao Yan couldn’t understand what the Wolf Head Mercenary Group had that was worthy of three Dou Lings showing up here?

Although he was so confused in his heart, Xiao Yan was certain of one thing.

These three fighting spirits are all enemies who want to kill him.

Let’s not talk about whether Xiao Yan can escape from the three Dou Lings. Unlike his escape from Mu She two months ago, Xiao Yan was able to escape that time without any worries.

But this time, he had already promised Xiao Yixian that he would rescue Boss Yao, so there was no room for him to retreat.

What you promised must be done!

Even if it means death!!!

Xiao Yan raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, slowly stood up, and stared closely at the cloaked man in front of him. The cloaked man also slowly spoke.

"Since you can come here, it proves that Mu She has died in your hands, right?" The cloaked man curled his lips in disdain, saying, "What a rubbish! A great fighter can be defeated by a fighter. Mu She has been a mercenary for so many years in vain."
