Boom!

Mr. Yao collapsed straight to the ground.

"How could this be..."

"Who exactly are you? You're not a mercenary from around here at all!" Mr. Yao cried in terror, his entire body going limp, unable to muster even a shred of strength!

Simply facing Xiao Huo, he could feel an utterly terrifying pressure!

A Da Dou Shi expert—terrifying beyond measure!

How could an expert of this level suddenly appear in all of Qingshan Town?

Even Mu She, the leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, was only a Dou Shi!

Xiao Huo stepped forward without the slightest pity. Extras like this, who harbored ill intentions toward Xiao Yi Xian, deserved to die.

As for Xiao Yan, he would be dealt with too!

"Sir, please spare this worthless life of mine..." Mr. Yao dropped to his knees, his eyes filled with endless regret. He had never imagined that after coming to kill Xiao Huo, he would run into an immovable wall!

This was indeed an immovable wall he could not afford to provoke!

Regret, panic, trembling!

Had he known, he would never have come here to provoke Xiao Huo...

However, Xiao Huo gave Mr. Yao no chance to continue.

A palm strike descended.

Mr. Yao's body exploded into countless chunks of flesh in midair, dying miserably on the spot!

Ding—

"Congratulations, Host, for killing a minor character. You have received 50 Prestige Points and 3,000 EXP." The system notification sounded.

Inside the Myriad Medicine Pavilion, many managers and servants had also come out. They all looked at Xiao Huo with reverence, their eyes filled with terror!

Mr. Yao had been instantly killed with a single palm!

All the guards had died miserably on the spot, without even a chance to resist!

"How could this be... Mr. Yao and the guards were actually killed in an instant?"

"Where did this expert come from? Why is he so strong?"

"Xiao Yi Xian's boyfriend is actually a Da Dou Shi expert! I wonder if I have a chance..."

"Are you stupid? You're a man—how could you possibly have a chance?"

Many managers and servants began preparing to flee.

Before Xiao Huo, they did not even have the courage to remain standing!

Boom!

The gates of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion exploded with a thunderous crash, shattering into countless fragments!

Everyone stopped in their tracks, their bodies trembling as they stared at Xiao Huo in horror, overwhelmed by lingering fear!

Could it be that Xiao Huo did not intend to spare them either?

"Whoever dares take one step out of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion... do you see that stone monument?" Xiao Huo said calmly.

Xiao Huo slightly raised his hand. With just one simple finger, he touched the stone monument.

Thud!

A crisp crack appeared across the hundred-zhang-tall stone monument!

With a loud crash!

The stone monument collapsed with a thunderous roar! Countless shards of stone burst forth and fell to the ground.

Then—

The towering stone monument turned into countless specks of dust in an instant!

Buzz!

Everyone present felt their hearts violently tremble!

Terrifying beyond measure!

Such an enormous stone monument would be extremely difficult to shake with human strength!

Yet in Xiao Huo's hands, it became dust with just one finger?

Was he even human?

Was this power something an ordinary martial artist could unleash?

Whoever dared flee would end up like that stone monument!

Reduced to dust, vanishing without a trace!

Everyone swallowed hard. They knew Xiao Huo was capable of doing it!

If Xiao Huo wanted to kill them, it would have been effortless!

With strength this terrifying, how could they possibly contend against him?

"My name is Xiao Huo. From now on, Xian'er is the master of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion."

"Do you understand?" Xiao Huo swept his gaze over everyone present.

All the servants and stewards felt their hearts tremble violently. They hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to meet Xiao Huo's eyes at all!

"M-Master Xiao!"

"We understand! From now on, everyone will follow Master Xiao's lead! If Master Xiao tells us to go east, we would never dare go west!" A steward stepped forward and knelt before Xiao Huo. Many others hurriedly nodded, stepping forward to kneel one after another.

"Master Xiao, you really won't kill us?" Many looked nervous and afraid, terrified of offending Xiao Huo. Their bodies were nowhere near as hard as stone tablets.

"This young master has always upheld justice. I am an upright gentleman and a heroic youth—when have I ever slaughtered innocents?" Xiao Huo smiled faintly as he wrapped an arm around Xiao Yi Xian's slender waist.

"Mr. Yao oppressed you all. If he didn't die, then who should?" Xiao Huo explained. He could not ruin his image in Xiao Yi Xian's eyes.

I'm a good lecher!

Upon hearing this, many stewards and servants suddenly understood, and there was even a hint of gratitude in their eyes.

That was right...

When had Master Xiao ever said he wanted to kill them?

Such a good man—truly, heroes emerged from youth! He had directly killed Mr. Yao, who had oppressed them!

It was immensely satisfying!

"Master Xiao did wonderfully! Mr. Yao deserved to die!"

"Master Xiao is rather handsome... My daughter is quite pretty too. I wonder if Master Xiao would like her."

"How could your daughter be prettier than mine? Young Master Xiao will definitely like her. As long as he nods, tonight, she can..."

"Hmph, this young lady can right now..."

People whispered among themselves. Xiao Huo's image in their hearts instantly rose several levels.

Upright, handsome, immensely powerful, and a youthful hero!

"Brother Xiao Huo... you're so handsome." Xiao Yi Xian smiled sweetly. It seemed her choice had not been wrong after all. Brother Xiao Huo truly had excellent character!

"Sigh, there are too few people as handsome and upright as me." Xiao Huo shook his head, carrying an air of lonely invincibility.

Subduing the Myriad Medicine Pavilion was only the first step. Next, he would subdue every force in Qingshan Town and have them protect Xiao Yi Xian.

After all, Xiao Huo could not stay here for too long. Ya Fei and Xun'er were still waiting for him at home.

Nalan Yanran was also waiting for Xiao Huo to marry her at the Misty Cloud Sect.

"Xian'er, handle the matters of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion first. I'll head out for a while," Xiao Huo said with a smile, his fingers brushing through Xiao Yi Xian's dark hair.

"Then be careful." Xiao Yi Xian gently pursed her lips, reluctant to part with him.

"Wash yourself nice and clean tonight and wait for me." Xiao Huo smiled, pulling her delicate body into his arms and lightly patting the young girl's pert rear.

"Big pervert! Shameless!" Xiao Yi Xian stuck out her tongue. Had he not touched her enough last night?

The people around them looked on with envy, their gazes toward Xiao Huo filled with reverence.

"Brother Xiao Huo, I'll wait for you... for the day you cure my Calamity Poison Body and help me become an alchemist."

Once her Calamity Poison Body was cured, she could truly be with Brother Xiao Huo in bed...

Then, Brother Xiao Huo could do whatever he wanted...

"Xiao Yan, you're still cultivating bitterly in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, aren't you?"

"Hehehe... This time, I'll have some fun playing you to death!"

"System, reshape me into Xiao Yan's build and appearance, then give me an identical Mysterious Black Ruler." Xiao Huo's voice rang out, a smirk curling at the corner of his lips.

"Ding—The host has been changed into Xiao Yan's build. You will automatically revert to your original appearance after half an hour," the system's voice sounded.

"The efficiency needs improvement. Who should I start with?"

"The Wolf Head Mercenary Group, then! From now on, I have Xiao Yan's face. Xiao Yan... just wait for the grand gift I'm sending you!" Xiao Huo's lips curved upward slightly as he headed straight for the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's headquarters.
