I'm in Battle Through the Heavens, and I have a control panel.

Chapter 31 Reunion

Somewhere on the outskirts.

Xiao Yan was forced to the edge of a cliff by Mu Li and the others.

The reason he was forced to this point was that after Yao Lao helped him escape into the Monster Mountain Range, he saw that the number of pursuers had decreased significantly, so he ended the possession and let him handle the rest on his own.

Otherwise, with the old man of medicine possessing him, these pursuers would be wiped out in no time.

"Kid, where do you think you're going to run now!"

Muli stepped forward with a sinister grin. "Today is your death day!"

Xiao Yan gritted his teeth, ready to make a final desperate attempt, when a white figure suddenly darted out like lightning and blocked his way.

"Who?!"

Muli roared angrily.

Upon seeing the newcomer's face, Mu Li and the surrounding mercenaries were all taken aback.

"Little Fairy Doctor?!"

Muli exclaimed in surprise, his face full of astonishment, "What are you doing here?"

Little Fairy Doctor's pretty face was frosty as she coldly swept her gaze over the crowd: "I'll protect this person. Those who don't want to die, get lost."

Xiao Yan looked at Little Fairy Doctor's retreating figure with a puzzled expression. Who is this person?

Mu Li was taken aback at first, then laughed disdainfully: "Little Fairy Doctor, you're just a lowly physician, yet you dare to spout such nonsense here?"

Then, his eyes swept greedily over Little Fairy Doctor, and he said in a lewd tone, "Today I will not only kill Xiao Yan."

"I'm going to take you home and ravage you properly, so you'll know what I'm capable of!"

"court death!"

Little Fairy Doctor was furious, and the aura of a one-star Great Dou Master within her body instantly erupted without reservation.

The overwhelming aura swept out like a whirlwind, instantly overwhelming the surrounding mercenaries, whose expressions changed drastically.

"This...this is the aura of a Great Dou Master?!"

"How is this possible? How could she suddenly become a Grand Battle Master?!"

The mercenaries murmured amongst themselves, their faces filled with horror, their steps involuntarily retreating, their hearts already considering giving up.

Mu Li's expression also changed, but he quickly regained his ferocious look: "Impossible!"

"This little girl is a master of trickery; she must have used some method to make herself appear like a Grandmaster!"

"How could a girl who only knows how to heal illnesses break through to the Great Dou Master level in just one year?"

Unconvinced, he unleashed his Xuan-rank battle skill, Wood Hardening, and charged towards Little Fairy Doctor, yelling, "Kneel down before me!"

Mu Li slapped Little Fairy Doctor in the face.

Little Fairy Doctor's eyes turned cold. She circulated her internal fighting spirit, and her right hand formed a palm. Instantly, dark, poisonous fighting spirit enveloped her palm.

boom--

With a single, devastating blow, she broke Mu Li's arm and then struck him in the chest.

Muli immediately shot backward like a kite with a broken string.

boom!

Muli landed and coughed up a mouthful of black blood, dying instantly.

He was only a six-star Dou Zhe, and his strength was far inferior to that of Little Fairy Doctor. It was only natural that he would be instantly killed.

The surrounding mercenaries were terrified at the sight.

"Commander Mu is dead!"

"Run!"

"This girl is terrifying!"

No one dared to linger any longer, and they scattered and fled like stray dogs, disappearing without a trace in an instant.

With the crisis averted, Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief, clasped his hands in a fist salute to Little Fairy Doctor, and said gratefully, "Thank you for saving me, young lady. My name is Xiao Yan. May I ask your name?"

Little Fairy Doctor turned around and smiled faintly at Xiao Yan: "I don't know you, so I won't save you. So if you want to thank someone, thank my brother Xiao Zheng."

"Xiao Zheng?"

Xiao Yan was shocked, and then his heart was filled with joy.

Could the "Brother Xiao Zheng" she mentioned be her husband, Xiao Zheng?

There's no mistake, it must be him. Why else would Xiao Zheng come to help him?

He whirled his head, his eyes gleaming like a wolf's, his emotions slightly agitated: "Xiao Zheng! Is that you, Xiao Zheng?!"

As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, a figure walked over: "Long time no see, Xiao Yan."

It was Xiao Zheng.

Xiao Yan's face immediately lit up with joy.

It really was Xiao Zheng!

Xiao Zheng quickly walked up to Little Fairy Doctor and stood down beside her.

Xiao Yan chuckled and patted Xiao Zheng on the shoulder: "Xiao Zheng, you left so suddenly, I didn't even have time to say goodbye."

Xiao Zheng: ?

Why does Xiao Yan's statement sound so strange?

Xiao Yan looked at Little Fairy Doctor again and grinned, "I know, this must be your sister-in-law, right?"

He cupped his hands in thanks to Little Fairy Doctor, saying, "Thank you for saving me just now, sister-in-law."

"what!"

Little Fairy Doctor's cheeks instantly turned bright red, like a ripe apple, and she hurriedly waved her hands, "No...no!"

Xiao Zheng shook his head: "Xiao Yan, if I remember correctly, I was born an hour earlier than you, so you should call me brother."

"So Little Fairy Doctor isn't your sister-in-law, but rather your sister-in-law..."

Little Fairy Doctor glanced at Xiao Zheng.

Xiao Zheng changed his tune: "We're not in the kind of relationship you're thinking of, we're just friends... um, good friends."

Xiao Yan felt that Xiao Zheng was pursuing this girl, but hadn't succeeded yet.

Should he offer a helping hand?

Let's forget about it; it might backfire.

Xiao Yan was curious about Xiao Zheng's current cultivation level, so he asked, "Xiao Zheng, it's been a year, where have you been? Also, what are you now...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Yao Lao's voice rang in his mind: "Disciple, I suggest you don't ask anymore. This kid is a nine-star Dou Shi."

What?!

Xiao Yan was startled.

In just over a year, Xiao Zheng has gone from a guy with only four levels of Dou Qi to a nine-star Dou Shi?!

At that moment, he was deeply affected.

It should be noted that since Xiao Yan became Yao Lao's disciple, with the help of his teacher and his own efforts, his cultivation level has advanced by leaps and bounds.

In just over a year, he progressed from the third stage of Dou Qi to the Dou Zhe level, and he thought he was already very powerful.

But after meeting Xiao Zheng this time, I realized what a true prodigy is!

In Xiao Yan's opinion, he leveled up quickly because he had Yao Lao as a cheat code, while Xiao Zheng relied entirely on his own efforts!

Even though Xiao Yan didn't finish his sentence, Xiao Zheng could guess what Xiao Yan wanted to say next.

The reason Xiao Yan suddenly stopped talking was probably because Yao Lao said something.

Xiao Zheng's gaze swept over the ring on Xiao Yan's hand, intentionally or unintentionally.

When Yao Lao felt Xiao Zheng's gaze, a look of surprise immediately appeared between his brows.

This kid can sense his presence?

However, Xiao Zheng's gaze did not linger on the ring; it swept over it directly, so Yao Lao thought it was probably just a coincidence.

Xiao Zheng looked at Xiao Yan, a slight smile playing on his lips, and asked, "Xiao Yan, what do you want to ask me?"

Xiao Yan coughed lightly: "Nothing, nothing, I just wanted to ask where you went after you left the Xiao family."

Little Fairy Doctor interjected, "Let's not stand here; there are corpses nearby."

"Why don't we find a place to sit and rest? That way, you two brothers can have a good chat."

Xiao Yan nodded.

He had no objections; it was up to Xiao Zheng.

Xiao Zheng pondered for a moment, thinking that since he had met Xiao Yan today and Xiao Yan seemed to have a good impression of him, it wouldn't hurt to get to know him better.

Xiao Zheng's panel has a function to collect different kinds of fire. If he wants to improve his combat power and increase the diversity of his combat methods in the future, he will probably have to find different kinds of fire.

Whether you choose to save time by following Xiao Yan and getting some of his strange fire, or you go find it yourself, you'll likely have to come into contact with this guy.

Xiao Zheng nodded: "Okay."
