Xiao Yi Xian: Brother Gu Fei, please help me!

Gu Fei did not even spare the dozen or so mercenaries a glance.

Even if they attacked together, they posed no threat to him whatsoever.

Mu Li was no different.

Mu Li felt resentment. Emotion Value +15

He stared fixedly at Gu Fei, his eyes filled with killing intent.

Since Gu Fei was unwilling to cooperate with the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, there was no need to let him live.

So what if Gu Fei himself was powerful? He refused to believe that a whole group of them could not kill a single alchemist!

Of course, Gu Fei sensed Mu Li's killing intent toward him.

Since that was the case, he naturally would not show mercy either!

A trace of disdain appeared in Gu Fei's eyes. With a slight lift of his palm, he sent out a blast of force.

The airflow was faint, yet incredibly fast. When it pierced through Mu Li's chest, Mu Li still wore a gloomy expression, not having had time to react.

The next instant, Mu Li's chest was pierced through!

His expression did not even change as he fell stiffly to the ground, clearly dead beyond doubt.

The other mercenaries had originally been brimming with aggression, but at the sight of this, most of them were so frightened that their legs went weak.

Lin Ye felt fear. Emotion Value +0.2

Mu Huan felt dread. Emotion Value +0.1

They stood there blankly, not even daring to run.

After all, the strength Gu Fei had just displayed was simply too terrifying.

With such a casual strike, even the young leader with the strength of a seven-star Dou Zhe had been instantly killed.

Mu Li was one of the strongest experts in the entire Wolf Head Mercenary Group, even in all of Green Mountain Town. Among the dozen or so of them, many were not even Dou Zhes.

How could they possibly resist?

Xiao Yi Xian felt shock. Emotion Value +100

Xiao Yi Xian had also been stunned by Gu Fei's strength.

Living in a small place like Green Mountain Town, where had she ever seen such a powerful expert?

Xiao Yi Xian was not afraid of Gu Fei for killing Mu Li in one strike. After all, Mu Li had wanted to kill them first.

She clutched her chest, a wave of lingering fear washing over her.

Xiao Yi Xian felt relief. Emotion Value +90

If Gu Fei had not been here today, then either her secret would have been exposed, or she would have died here.

Some of the mercenaries, seeing that they could not defeat such a terrifying expert, thought of using the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's leader to threaten Gu Fei.

"Today, you killed the young leader. If you dare kill us too, the leader will definitely not let you off!"

One mercenary spoke fiercely though inwardly timid.

Yuan Chong felt guilty. Emotion Value +1

This man was so strong. He did not know whether the leader could truly kill him.

"That's right, our leader is a two-star Dou Shi. By then, I'm afraid you won't even have time to beg for mercy!"

Qin Zheng felt smug. Emotion Value +1

Gu Fei looked utterly disdainful.

A two-star Dou Shi?

He had thought it would be someone formidable.

Gu Fei did not show mercy to these mercenaries either.

He could not even be bothered to kill them. Moving swiftly, he sent more than a dozen incredibly powerful blasts of force dancing nimbly through the forest.

The cultivation of those dozen or so mercenaries was casually crippled, and all of them became ordinary people.

Xiao Yi Xian felt shock. Emotion Value +100

Xiao Yi Xian's beautiful eyes were filled with shock.

Gu Fei's methods were ruthless. It was her first time seeing such a scene.

Yet after her shock subsided, Xiao Yi Xian did not think Gu Fei was wrong to strip all dozen of them of their cultivation in an instant.

After all, that was the law of this world.

A group of weaklings had harbored killing intent toward a strong person. The strong person had already shown mercy by not killing them all.

"I didn't scare you, did I?"

Gu Fei asked with a smile, looking utterly relaxed.

"No..."

Xiao Yi Xian gently shook her head, an unusual gleam flickering in her beautiful eyes.

Gu Fei then walked to the edge of the cliff and glanced downward, his gaze filled with admiration.

"This cliff is covered in strange, sprawling trees. It is quite cleverly arranged. It seems some senior left behind a cave dwelling here. For you to encounter such an opportunity is not bad..."

He spoke softly, yet there was not a trace of greed in his eyes.

Xiao Yi Xian was taken aback.

She had originally intended to give half the treasure to Gu Fei, but after hearing his words, she realized that given his status, he might disdain to seize the treasure here.

Xiao Yi Xian knew that after what happened today, the secret of this place would inevitably spread.

Such treasure would certainly draw countless treasure seekers.

If she did not take it today, she might never get another chance.

Xiao Yi Xian felt conflicted. Emotion Value +80

Gu Fei's eyes shifted as he took the initiative to ask, "Is there anything you need my help with?"

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Yi Xian finally said, "Young Master, may I ask you to do me a favor?"

There was some unease in her eyes, as she wondered whether she was troubling Gu Fei too much.

Gu Fei merely smiled faintly and nodded.

Xiao Yi Xian was usually shy and gentle by nature, rarely taking the initiative to ask others for help. This also showed that she had truly come to trust Gu Fei.

"Could you help me retrieve the treasures below? Of course, if there is anything Young Master likes, please take it. Just leave whatever remains for me..."

Although her heart was bleeding, without Gu Fei today, she would not have been able to obtain the treasure at the bottom of the cliff anyway.

Xiao Yi Xian was naturally grateful to Gu Fei and was willing to let him choose the best treasures first.

"Alright..."

Though Gu Fei had no interest in the treasure at the bottom of the cliff, he did not refuse Xiao Yi Xian and nodded in agreement.

Women like Xiao Yi Xian feared owing others favors the most.

Sure enough, Xiao Yi Xian's eyes curved into crescents, and even her voice grew a little lighter.

Xiao Yi Xian felt delighted. Emotion Value +80

"Young Master, wait until I secure the rope, then we can go down together."

Next, Xiao Yi Xian took out a bundle of rope, intending to lower herself down with it.

Though it was more troublesome, it was safer.

Xiao Yi Xian had always descended this way before, hanging from a rope.

But Gu Fei spoke up and interrupted her.

"There is no need to go through so much trouble. I naturally have a more convenient method."

Gu Fei shook his head, earning a curious look from Xiao Yi Xian.

Xiao Yi Xian felt curious. Emotion Value +80

This cliff was incredibly steep. Without relying on a rope, what method could Gu Fei possibly have?

Gu Fei merely smiled faintly. A pair of crimson wings suddenly unfurled behind him. As they beat, he softly apologized to Xiao Yi Xian for the offense, then directly wrapped an arm around her slender waist and flew down the cliff.

Xiao Yi Xian felt shocked. Emotion Value +100

The moment she saw those enormous crimson wings that seemed to blot out the sky, Xiao Yi Xian had already gone blank.

When she saw that Gu Fei could actually fly with those crimson wings, she felt even more shaken.

Xiao Yi Xian felt astonished. Emotion Value +100

Wasn't this an ability only Dou Wang experts could master?

How could the ability to fly through the air appear on an alchemist as absurdly young as Gu Fei?

The situation even made Xiao Yi Xian overlook the embarrassment of being held in a man's arms.
