"Don't even think about it. They're just the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, only at the Battle Master level..."

Finding a clean spot to lie down, Yun Li noticed Little Fairy Doctor's appearance and was speechless. Just how little confidence did she have in her own abilities?

Or is it that you don't believe your own words?

Since she had chosen to listen to her, she would naturally ensure her safety; she also wanted to see how Little Fairy Doctor's poisonous body was awakening.

"..."

Hearing Yun Li's words, Little Fairy Doctor stopped talking. Now she could only trust this girl.

Squatting to the side, she looked towards the direction of the Monster Beast Mountain Range, wondering how Xiao Huohuo was doing.

Although they hadn't known each other for very long, she had already developed a slight liking for the boy.

But then she remembered her own poisonous constitution and shook her head helplessly. Given her condition, she shouldn't have any hope for others.

Anyone who knows about her health condition would choose to stay away from her; she's a ticking time bomb.

Besides the girl in front of me...

Little Fairy Doctor's gaze shifted to Yun Li's face again. Knowing her own physical condition, she still chose to let her come along. It was unclear where her confidence came from, or what other purpose she might have.

"I don't even know your name. As for me, everyone calls me... Little Fairy Doctor."

After a moment of silence, Little Fairy Doctor suddenly asked Yun Li a question. Although they hadn't interacted much, she roughly knew Yun Li's personality and found her not as scary as she had imagined.

Although the first impression is of her killing someone, she doesn't actually seem to be that bloodthirsty.

"Just call me Yun Li."

Yun Li opened her big eyes and answered casually. Then, as if she had thought of something, she asked the girl in front of her curiously.

"Is 'Little Fairy Doctor' just a nickname? What's your real name?"

It seemed she really didn't know the girl's real name, even after carefully recalling the original plot, it hadn't been mentioned.

"Real name..."

"That doesn't matter anymore, just call me Little Fairy Doctor."

When Yun Li asked about her real name, Little Fairy Doctor fell silent; she was reluctant to mention her former name.

As those close to her departed due to the unique nature of her "poisonous body," her real name was gradually forgotten. She preferred to be called "Little Fairy Doctor" rather than her real name.

"Alright."

Although she didn't get the answer she wanted, Yun Li didn't press the matter too much.

"Miss Yun Li, may I ask what level your strength has reached? Why can't I sense any battle aura on you? Is it because you've cultivated some kind of battle technique that conceals battle aura?"

After a brief exchange, Little Fairy Doctor grew bolder and began asking about some key information.

The girl in front of me is very young, but her strength is not simple. But why is there no trace of her having cultivated battle qi?

"What level? I don't know what level I am."

"If I had to categorize their strength, they would probably be considerably stronger than a typical Dou Di..."

Yun Li is not a cultivator of battle qi, so naturally she cannot have any battle qi level.

However, considering the overall strength of the Dou Huo Continent, she shouldn't be at a disadvantage against a Dou Di.

He should even be much stronger than a typical Dou Di...

"Battle Emperor? Uh..."

Why does this little girl always like to boast?

Previously, they could instantly kill Dou Zong, but now even the legendary Dou Di has appeared.

A Dou Di (Battle Emperor)? She couldn't even imagine it. Such a distant existence was practically a god. She even doubted whether a Dou Di had ever truly existed in this world...

In short, I'm too far away from her.

In her eyes, Grand Masters and Battle Spirits were beings she could never even approach.

The night passed quickly, and the next morning arrived.

Yun Li hadn't gotten up yet, but at this moment, at the headquarters of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group in the southern region of Qingshan Town, the group's leader Mu She, was listening to his subordinates' reports.

"That guy surnamed Yao is dead?!"

Mu She was somewhat surprised. He received news early in the morning that the owner of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion had died inside the pharmacy.

This is a big deal...

Although the man surnamed Yao isn't very capable, he is still the owner of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion.

How did he die?

After a moment's thought, Mu She asked curiously.

"It seems that his legs were broken by a heavy object, and then he was killed by a punch, just like... similar to the situation when that person killed our brother."

The subordinate hesitated a bit when he said this. They had been targeted by Xiao Huohuo before and suffered heavy casualties, and the manner of death was similar to that of the man surnamed Yao.

Upon hearing this, Mu She immediately knew who he was referring to.

"You're talking about that kid surnamed Xiao?!"

"Impossible. He fell into the depths of the Monster Beast Mountain Range, which is full of third, fourth, and even fifth-tier monsters. There is absolutely no chance of him surviving."

Although Yao's death seemed very much like Xiao Huohuo's actions, and it was also very logical, he was unwilling to believe that the family could have successfully emerged from the depths of the Monster Beast Mountain Range.

"Compared to that guy surnamed Xiao, I'm more inclined to believe... it was someone else who did it..."

"Didn't we have a few brothers who died at the hands of a girl before? The weapon she used was similar to the one surnamed Xiao, so it must have been her who did it."

Mu She suddenly remembered Yun Li's existence. Several of his brothers had died at her hands before, but he had other things to do and didn't have time to deal with it.

However, the other brothers were no match for them, so the matter was delayed.

However, compared to these, Mu She was more concerned about another person.

Little Fairy Doctor!

He has always been thinking about her.

If it weren't for her and Xiao Huohuo, her brother and son wouldn't have died.

And the treasure she possesses must also be obtained.

Of the three treasure chests in the cave, the first two were taken by Little Fairy Doctor and her companion, and he barely managed to snatch the last one.

This is a Profound Tier High Grade combat skill, the Roaring Lion Chant, so he believed that the contents of the other two boxes must be just as good.

Since there's no way to deal with Xiao Huohuo now, the only option is to seek help from Little Fairy Doctor.

"Now that Yao is dead, that woman has no one to protect her. Go and bring Little Fairy Doctor back to me."

However, his subordinates did not make a move at all.

"What? Do I have to say it a second time?"

"No, no, boss. We've already looked. Little Fairy Doctor isn't at the Myriad Medicine Pavilion. She disappeared after we found out that the man surnamed Yao was dead."

"Disappeared?"

Mu She was taken aback.

But I quickly realized...

"What are you waiting for? Take all the brothers and go find her right now. Even if you have to search the entire Qingshan Town, you have to find her, alive or dead."

If she really gets away, wouldn't all my preparations be for nothing?

But this seems too much of a coincidence!

The girl suddenly killed the man surnamed Yao, and then Little Fairy Doctor disappeared. Could it be that the girl who also wielded the heavy ruler sword... killed the man surnamed Yao to take Little Fairy Doctor away?

"Could it be that the girl really is Xiao Huohuo, who came from the depths of the Monster Beast Mountain Range, just like those people said?"

Otherwise, why would she do that?

Everything is too coincidental.

Regardless of whether she is Xiao Huohuo or not, she cannot be let go. She took Little Fairy Doctor away, which made them enemies of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.

With that thought in mind, Mu She picked up her weapon and went outside.

Stepping out of the house, Mu She looked at the mercenaries guarding the door and gave them orders as well.

"You lot, grab your weapons and come with me to that abandoned blacksmith shop..."

Although they didn't actively seek contact, given the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's capabilities in Qingshan Town, they knew long ago where Yun Li usually was.

So as long as they haven't had time to escape Qingshan Town, it's very likely that... they're still there.

"Yes, boss."

Upon hearing this, the mercenaries present immediately began to act.

Just as Mu She led his men to the location where Yun Li was forging the sword, Yun Li slowly got up and washed up.

"Miss Yun Li, what are these?"

Little Fairy Doctor looked at Yun Li's washing utensils with great curiosity, as they were all things she had never seen before.

"Gurgle, gurgle, time to brush my teeth..."

Yun Li spat out the water in her mouth and explained to her. The girl had also prepared a lot of daily necessities, just in case, and often once she got used to something, she didn't want to switch to anything else.

After thinking for a moment, Yun Li took out a new set of toiletries and handed it to Little Fairy Doctor.

"Here's one for you too."

It's not something that's particularly valuable anyway.

Subconsciously taking the item, Little Fairy Doctor watched Yun Li's actions and subconsciously imitated them.

After washing up and eating something simple, Little Fairy Doctor asked Yun Li where she was going.

"Monster Beast Mountain Range..."

Yun Li pointed in the direction of the Monster Beast Mountain Range and answered calmly.

"Why?"

Little Fairy Doctor was completely taken aback by this answer; she had thought it would be somewhere else, but it turned out to be the Monster Beast Mountain Range.

"Go get something, and then leave."

"It's okay if you don't want to go. Just wait for me here."

Yun Li spoke very casually, as if it were a trip to the zoo.

For Yun Li, the most dangerous place in the Monster Beast Mountain Range was no different from a zoo.

"I... I'll go with you."

Upon hearing this, Little Fairy Doctor thought for a moment and decided not to stay. Although going to the Monster Beast Mountain Range was dangerous, it was better than staying here and being targeted by the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.

Moreover, Xiao Huohuo is missing deep in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, and she still has some snacks to eat.

If we could meet, I could feel more at ease!

As for what to do next, Little Fairy Doctor had not considered it.

Perhaps only Yun Li could accept her poisonous constitution. Moreover, she still held onto hope that Yun Li could resolve her condition.

As long as Yun Li isn't deceiving herself...

"Hmm, not bad."

Seeing that Little Fairy Doctor had decided to go to the Monster Beast Mountain Range with her, Yun Li was quite satisfied.

Commendable courage!

In that case, it's not impossible for her to nurture this treacherous poison woman, and even make her a Poison Emperor...

After quickly packing her things, Yun Li led Little Fairy Doctor out of the sword forging room. However, as soon as they stepped out of the room, they saw Mu She, the leader of the Wolf Head gang, arrive with his men.

"Little Fairy Doctor, you really are here!"

Upon seeing Little Fairy Doctor, Mu She's expression instantly turned cruel.
