Spare Me, Heroine, Spare Me, Heroine

"It would have been better if you'd done this sooner. This King's power can't be maintained any longer. I need to find a way to merge This King's soul."

After wiping herself clean, Queen Medusa immediately turned back into the Little White Snake.

"Eeya~"

The Little White Snake jumped into Bai Xiaoran's arms to rest.

After everything that had happened, Bai Xiaoran left the room and found Xiao Li. Xiao Ding and Xiao Yan happened to be there as well.

"Big Brother, what happened to you?"

Xiao Ding said, "We had a conflict with the Sand Mercenary Group. Their leader even wanted to replace Big Brother and me."

"Their leader is named Rob. He's a Da Dou Shi and has caused plenty of conflicts with the Desert Iron Mercenary Group in the past. This time, he even injured our people."

Xiao Yan said, "Don't worry, Big Brother. I can handle this."

"You can handle it? No, leave it to Xiaoran!"

It was not that he did not trust Xiao Yan, but among the Xiao Family, no one had cultivation as profound as Bai Xiaoran's.

"No, I'm going with Brother Xiaoran."

Xiao Yan looked at Bai Xiaoran expectantly. "Brother Xiaoran, is that okay?"

This was a chance to show what he could do in front of Brother Xiaoran.

Bai Xiaoran said, "Sure, but if you hold me back, I won't look after you."

"Don't worry, Brother Xiaoran."

He had a cheat. If things went wrong, he could just let Teacher possess him.

Xiao Li said, "We'll make our move tonight."

"No problem."

After settling it, Bai Xiaoran headed outside, where Hai Bodong had already been waiting for some time.

"Senior, is there something you need here?"

Hai Bodong said, "This time, I'll go with you. Medusa told me to protect your safety."

"No problem."

"Give the Sand Mercenary Group a try. If you really can't handle them, I'll help you wipe them out. That Rob is also a suitable opponent for you to gain experience from."

Xiao Yan walked over. "Brother Xiaoran, this senior is?"

"Hai Bodong."

As Xiao Yan was puzzled, Old Yao said, "This man is a Dou Emperor. His fortune is quite extraordinary, to have actually befriended such an expert."

"A Dou Emperor? Brother Xiaoran's luck is amazing."

"Well, you can't put it that way. What if he simply worked harder than you?"

After chatting for a few moments, they went their separate ways.

With Hai Bodong following Bai Xiaoran, he naturally had no reason to keep clinging to him.

That night, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li had already gathered their men and made preparations.

Bai Xiaoran said, "Big Brother, I'll scout ahead first."

"Then be careful. We'll follow shortly."

Bai Xiaoran spread his Purple Cloud Wings and headed for the Sand Mercenary Group first, while Hai Bodong followed behind him.

The others also rushed toward the Sand Mercenary Group. With Bai Xiaoran and Hai Bodong present, they undoubtedly felt much more confident.

Even if Hai Bodong did not act, Bai Xiaoran's stunning beauty greatly boosted their morale.

Outside the Sand Mercenary Group's base, Hai Bodong said after investigating, "They have quite a few people, but Rob is the only Da Dou Shi. With your Heavenly Flame and your trump card of copying techniques, dealing with him should be more than enough."

"Let's wait for Big Brother and the others."

Once the Desert Iron Mercenary Group arrived, Bai Xiaoran said first, "Leave Rob to me. Big Brother, you deal with everyone else."

Xiao Li and Xiao Ding agreed with the proposal.

Then Bai Xiaoran made the first move, taking care of the guards.

Xiao Li and Xiao Ding immediately led the mercenary group into the Sand Mercenary Group.

The sounds of fighting instantly drew Rob out.

"What's going on? Can't a man even sleep at night?"

"Leader!"

Moxie hurried over and said, "The Desert Iron Mercenary Group has charged in."

"They're merely Dou Masters, yet they dare come to our territory?"

Rob entered the tent, grabbed his broadsword, and was about to leave when he was immediately stopped.

"Who are you? How dare you come here?"

Bai Xiaoran said, "Naturally, I'm here to teach you a lesson!"

When Moxie and Rob got a clear look at Bai Xiaoran, they were instantly stunned. What a beautiful woman.

They had not seen a woman like this in years.

Moxie whispered, "Leader, this woman looks like she'd be quite something. Why not capture her and have her serve you properly?"

"Good idea."

Rob said, "You came here alone. Aren't you afraid?"

Bai Xiaoran smiled. "What do I have to fear?"

He drew his longsword and immediately unleashed Wind Extremity: Setting Sun Radiance. The scorching light made both men shield their eyes.

"What kind of Dou Technique is this? It's so blinding."

Bai Xiaoran manifested his qi into a fist and slammed it heavily into their bodies.

The two of them were sent flying.

Rob got to his feet, fury in his eyes. Gripping his broadsword, he immediately unleashed a slash.

Bai Xiaoran swung his longsword as well, sending out a sword slash of his own.

Moxie flashed behind Bai Xiaoran and laughed. "Die!"

Just as he was about to strike, Bai Xiaoran's figure vanished. When Moxie came to his senses, he was instantly kicked flying.

"What fast movement technique!"

Bai Xiaoran said, "Gentlemen, it's time to send you on your way."

A cluster of Heavenly Flame appeared in his hand. Its searing heat made Rob feel the threat of death.

This temperature is all wrong. Could it be a Heavenly Flame?!

Dropping his broadsword, Rob immediately fell to his knees and begged, "Spare me, Heroine! Please spare this little one just once!"

"What do you mean? I was all ready."

"I don't want to die! If I'd known the heroine possessed such strength, how would I have dared to make a move?"

Bai Xiaoran was somewhat slow to react.

Still, Rob had never held any life-or-death grudge against Desert Iron. Just as Bai Xiaoran was about to stop—

Moxie quietly said to Rob, "Sir, are you really going to let a woman like this go? At worst, we can come back later... Ah!"

Bai Xiaoran appeared behind Moxie, and the Heavenly Flame struck him directly.

"I knew something was off. So you were the scheming dog advising him!"

"Spare me, Heroine!"

"Too late!"

Then Bai Xiaoran burned Moxie to death with a single burst of flame. Rob swallowed hard. Thankfully, he knew his place.

By then, the Desert Iron Mercenary Group had captured everyone and arrived at Rob's residence. He was already kneeling on the ground.

"It's already settled!"

Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were somewhat surprised, while Xiao Yan sensed the aura nearby... It was a Heavenly Flame!

Could Brother Xiaoran have absorbed the Green Lotus Core Flame?

"There's no mistake. He absorbed the Heavenly Flame!"

"I'll find a chance to talk to Brother Xiaoran about it."

He had originally wanted to show off in front of Brother Xiaoran. It seemed he could only do so at the Misty Cloud Sect now.

Xiao Li said, "Rob, do you have anything else to say now?"

"I have nothing to say. Take whatever resources you want. From now on, I'll never start another conflict with your Desert Iron Mercenary Group!"

The two looked at Rob, whose tone had become utterly humble.

"In that case, don't ever think about attacking the Desert Iron Mercenary Group again."

"Absolutely!"

After the matter was resolved, the Desert Iron Mercenary Group took a portion of the resources and withdrew to Shimo City.

At the Desert Iron Mercenary Group, Xiao Yan found Bai Xiaoran.

"Brother Xiaoran, did you absorb the Heavenly Flame?"

"That's right. Queen Medusa captured me back then, but after she failed to break through, I seized the opportunity."

"Then congratulations, Brother Xiaoran."

Bai Xiaoran was in high spirits. Xiaoran had become even prettier than before, while even Xun'er seemed somewhat inferior by comparison.

"I should be leaving too. See you at the Misty Cloud Sect!"
