Sister Ya Fei, Don't

Sister Ya Fei... Don't

After Xiao Yan left, the first person to enter the room was not Xiao Xun'er, but Ling Ying.

"Uncle Ling Ying, why are you here?"

"Naturally, to ask what you think. That person is quite renowned in the alchemy world."

Ling Ying had been eavesdropping outside and had not expected Bai Xiaoran to possess talent in alchemy as well.

Bai Xiaoran said, "I'm not particularly interested in alchemy. I still want to focus on cultivation. Cultivating and refining pills at the same time would greatly cut into my time."

"You're right, but since that person has taken an interest in your talent, you will definitely meet someday."

"Perhaps we'll meet quite often. In any case, breaking through to Dou Master is the most important thing."

Ling Ying said, "I'll think of a way to help you become a Dou Master."

After saying that, Ling Ying turned and vanished from the room.

Soon afterward, Xiao Xun'er pushed open the door and entered the room as well.

"Brother Xiaoran, Uncle Xiao just told me that the Jia Lie Family has acquired another batch of pills. Some Xiao Family disciples have even disappeared without explanation."

"Uncle Xiao suspects the Jia Lie Family did it?"

"Yes, so he plans to have Uncle Ling Ying investigate."

"That works too. Uncle Ling Ying won't be discovered while investigating."

Xiao Xun'er smiled. "Since everything is done, Brother Xiaoran, let's go to sleep."

She pounced on Bai Xiaoran and pinned him to the bed, immediately revealing a shy expression.

"Xun'er, what are you doing?!"

"Sleeping. And taking a look at Brother Xiaoran's body while I'm at it."

Why do I, a girl, want to conquer Brother Xiaoran and leave my mark on him?

Over the next few days, Ling Ying secretly investigated the movements of the Jia Lie Family and the Ao Ba Family.

One night, Ling Ying discovered that all the missing Xiao Family disciples had been used as sacrifices.

"Sacrifices? They can obtain pills through sacrifice?"

"I don't know about that, but the ritual is indeed rather strange." Even Ling Ying was puzzled. It seemed more like they were sacrificing people to someone, and that person was exchanging pills for those sacrifices.

"If that's the case, then we can destroy them as soon as possible!"

"I was thinking the same. We'll act tonight."

Since the Jia Lie Family had already made a move against the Xiao Family, they certainly would not spare the rest of the Xiao Family.

Xiao Xun'er said, "I'm coming too. It'll be a good chance to destroy that Jia Lie Ao."

"No problem!"

Having reached an agreement, they waited for nightfall.

"Xiaoran, Ya Fei has something to discuss with you. Come to the Council Hall."

Xiao Zhan's voice rang out from outside the room.

Bai Xiaoran was startled. He did not know why Ya Fei had come at this hour, but he still went to the Council Hall.

"Sister Ya Fei, why did you come looking for me?"

Ya Fei shot Bai Xiaoran a coquettish glare. "Can't Sister come see you when she has nothing to do?"

Feeling the devastating power of Ya Fei's gaze, Bai Xiaoran immediately said, "Of course you can."

"Look at you. Sister came to tell you about the people from the Xiao Family who disappeared a few days ago."

"Sister Ya Fei investigated it?"

"I did. The Jia Lie Family and the Ao Ba Family were transporting those people to certain places, sacrificing them to someone. Then that person traded pills for them."

"And then? Who is that person?"

Ya Fei sighed. "That person is ruthless. I heard even the Jia Lie Family doesn't know his name, but he comes from the Black Corner Region. The investigator only managed to tell me this while clinging to his last breath."

The Black Corner Region... its reach had extended all the way to Wutan City.

Could it be Han Feng?

"If that's all, then we can destroy Jia Lie Jia and the Ao Ba Family ahead of schedule."

Xiao Zhan said angrily, "Damn it, using living people as sacrifices!"

Ya Fei smiled. "Clan Head Xiao, there's no need to be angry. They probably won't exist for much longer."

She rose and took Bai Xiaoran's small hand. "I'll borrow Young Master Bai for a moment."

Holding Bai Xiaoran's hand, she left the Xiao Family and entered an alley, then directly pinned Bai Xiaoran against the wall.

"Little Brother Xiaoran, I told you so much information. How should you thank Sister?"

"I didn't force you to tell me!" Bai Xiaoran pouted.

I already knew all this. Why should I suffer this loss for nothing?

Suddenly, a leg brushed against the inside of his thigh.

"Y-you, what are you doing?!" Bai Xiaoran's face flushed.

"What do you think? If you won't thank Sister, then Sister can only demand some repayment herself." Ya Fei lifted Bai Xiaoran's chin with one hand.

No matter how many times she saw it, she felt Bai Xiaoran resembled an innocent young girl. He would blush at the slightest teasing.

"Sister Ya Fei, don't..."

"Sister isn't a bad person. Besides, Sister is the one at a disadvantage, not you."

The instant Ya Fei released him, she immediately grabbed Bai Xiaoran's arm.

"Don't even think about running. I let you get away last time."

Bai Xiaoran was so anxious that he truly wanted to strike her. This woman Ya Fei was too wicked—if he hit her too hard, she would blame him again.

After their exchange, Ya Fei let go and said, "I know you'll go. Be careful in everything you do. The Jia Lie Family and the Ao Ba Family are not good people."

"I know."

Bai Xiaoran immediately left.

After lingering outside for a while, he returned to the room and told Xiao Xun'er and Ling Ying what had happened.

"If that is the case, that person is probably trying to break through this way," Ling Ying said.

Bai Xiaoran said, "He's really resorting to desperate measures. In any case, there's no need for them to continue existing."

"We must also be careful when we act tonight."

"Alright!"

The three waited for night to fall. Xiao Xun'er put on black clothes and a veil before setting out.

"I'll wear a black cloth!"

"There's no black cloth left, only a veil."

"Isn't that something women wear?"

Xiao Xun'er smiled. "It's fine. There's no need to care about that at night."

She placed the veil over Bai Xiaoran's face, and the three immediately headed to the Jia Lie Family.

Ling Ying used a concealment technique. Without the strength of a Dou Emperor, it was nearly impossible to sense the three of them.

"Haha, Ao Ba Family Head, once this batch of goods is delivered, we'll have more pills. Then we can resist the Xiao Family."

"Isn't that so? Since the Xiao Family wants to dominate alone, there's no need for us to live peacefully with them." The Ao Ba Family Head smiled faintly.

Hearing this, the three looked at the corpses and unconscious women laid out in the center, and were instantly shocked.

"So many... Just how grand is that person's operation?" Xiao Xun'er was somewhat dazed.

She had thought there would only be a small number, but now it seemed there were at least several hundred people.

"No rush. Wait until they transport them to their destination, then we'll wipe them all out in one go," Bai Xiaoran said. There was no need to act yet.

The three followed them out of Wutan City and did not stop until they reached a forest.

"My lord, the goods you requested have been delivered."

"They have indeed been delivered, but several flies followed you here. Did you not know?"

The Masked Man stepped out.

The Ao Ba Family Head and the Jia Lie Family Head were stunned.

They turned around and saw the three standing right before them.

"I can't blame you. Someone among them is stronger than you." The Masked Man smiled faintly.

"Since you have come, it is perfect. We were just short three of you."

"Hmph, do you really think you can swallow us?"

Ling Ying did not act rashly either. Since this man had discovered them, his strength had to be that of a Dou Emperor.
