I Told You, Don't Mess With Me!

Chapter 38: I Told You, Don't Mess With Me!

Upon seeing the group, the recruitment team from the Myriad Medicine Pavilion grew solemn. The newcomers were the Snake Nest Mercenary Group, one of Qingshan Town's three major mercenary groups. Leading them was a burly man, Kaisen, the leader of the Snake Nest Mercenary Group.

"Leader Kaisen, what brings you here?"

Seeing this, the middle-aged man from the Myriad Medicine Pavilion quickly stepped forward, a smile plastered on his face as he spoke courteously.

"Hmph, cut the crap. Where's my son?" Kaisen demanded, his eyes wide with anger.

"Reporting to the leader, the Young Leader went to find Xiao Yi Xian with Luo Heng and the others not long ago and hasn't returned yet!" Just then, a mercenary from the recruitment team stepped forward and reported.

Hearing this, Kaisen's thick eyebrows knit together, his eyes narrowed as he immediately looked at Xiao Yi Xian, who was squatting on the ground picking herbs. He asked in a deep voice:

"Xiao Yi Xian, my son went to find you, but you came back. Where is he?"

Xiao Yi Xian stood up. A flicker of panic crossed her beautiful face, but she still tried to remain calm as she replied, "I haven't seen him!"

"Haven't seen him? You're lying!"

Upon hearing this, Kaisen's anger erupted. He glared fiercely at Xiao Yi Xian and shouted, "He was always by your side, how could you not have seen him? Damn it, speak!"

Sensing the fierce killing intent emanating from Kaisen, Xiao Yi Xian frowned and was about to speak when a faint voice preceded her:

"Hey, stop asking. Your son is already dead!"

As the words fell, Xiao Tian slowly walked out from the crowd, a lazy expression on his face.

"What did you say?" Hearing this, Kaisen's expression changed drastically. He stared coldly at Xiao Tian.

"I'm not lying. He tried to snatch my treasure. I warned him not to mess with me, but he didn't listen, and accidentally got himself killed by me!" Xiao Tian shrugged his shoulders and said calmly.

"Bastard! I'll kill you!"

Kaisen, upon hearing this, flew into a rage. He roared and his body instantly lunged forward. Azure Battle Qi surged out, his right fist clenched, and he swung it with all his might towards Xiao Tian.

Seeing Kaisen's sudden attack, the members of the recruitment team changed their expressions.

This Leader Kaisen was a Nine-Star Dou Master expert. Once he made a move, it would surely cause a disaster!

However, Xiao Tian remained motionless in the face of this sudden punch. He didn't even bother to lift an eyelid, calmly saying, "I'm telling the truth, don't mess with me!"

"Bang!"

At this moment, Kaisen's iron fist landed squarely on Xiao Tian's chest with a dull thud.

But, to everyone's surprise, Xiao Tian was completely unharmed after taking such a heavy blow.

"Pfft~"

On the other hand, Kaisen seemed struck by lightning. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body, like a kite with a broken string, flew backward, knocking over several large trees before finally falling to the ground in a sorry state.

"Hiss~"

Seeing this scene, gasps of disbelief erupted from the recruitment team. Every face was filled with shock and disbelief.

The leader of one of Qingshan Town's three major mercenary groups, a Nine-Star Dou Master, was so easily defeated by a young man, and the young man hadn't even moved!

This was simply unbelievable, beyond reason!

For a moment, everyone stood frozen, not knowing how to react, their minds buzzing.

Under everyone's shocked gaze, Xiao Tian strode forward, looking down at the fallen Kaisen, and said faintly:

"I told you not to mess with me, but you didn't listen!"

"Cough, cough~"

Hearing Xiao Tian's words, Kaisen, lying on the ground, coughed violently, spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood. He struggled to lift his head and looked at Xiao Tian with resentment: "You scoundrel, do you know who I am? You dare to touch my son, I swear I'll make your life worse than death!"

Seeing Kaisen's continued arrogance, Xiao Tian's brow twitched slightly. He said faintly:

"Damn it, you're still tough even when death is at your doorstep!"

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Tian prepared to kick him to the afterlife.

However, at this critical moment, a cold voice suddenly came:

"Wait a moment, stop immediately, old man!"

As the voice fell, an old man with a white beard, dressed in a grey robe, swept in from a distance and instantly stood beside Kaisen.

Seeing the old man, Xiao Yi Xian's expression instantly changed.

Because this grey-robed old man was the expert guardian recently hired by the Snake Nest Mercenary Group, rumored to be above Three-Star Great Dou Master in strength.

"Oh? Finally, you show up!"

However, after the grey-robed old man appeared, Xiao Tian's lips curved into a sinister arc, as if he had expected this.

In fact, if these people hadn't shown up, it would have been fine. Now that they had, Xiao Tian was prepared to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots. Only then would Xiao Yi Xian have no worries after he left.

"Presumptuous! Who are you, to dare lay hands on our Snake Nest Mercenary Group?" The grey-robed old man's face was icy, and his gaze was sinister as he stared at Xiao Tian and coldly reprimanded him.

Hearing this, Xiao Tian smiled faintly and did not answer the grey-robed old man's question. Instead, right in front of him, he kicked Kaisen on the ground, sending him flying backward. After smashing through a towering ancient tree, Kaisen met his end.

"You--!" Seeing that Kaisen had still died despite his appearance, the grey-robed old man's expression suddenly changed drastically, his pupils contracting sharply. Then, a powerful killing intent emanated from his body like a tide, making it difficult for the surrounding people to breathe.

"Kid, you're looking for death!"

"Thunder Dragon Claw Hand!!"

The old man in the grey robe let out a low roar and lightning-fast, he extended his right arm, fingers splayed. A piercing sound of air being torn apart rang out. A withered right palm, covered in veins, carrying terrifying might and an extremely intimidating force, ripped through the air and slammed directly towards Xiao Tian's chest.

"So fast!"

Seeing the rapidly approaching black and green giant claw, the expressions of everyone around changed drastically.

The old man in the grey robe clearly had no intention of leaving anyone alive with this attack!

However, facing the claw that lunged at him like a phantom, Xiao Tian merely glanced at it with a calm expression before suddenly extending a palm.

Slap!!

This slap was unremarkable, but the old man in the grey robe's head spun a full three hundred and sixty degrees before crashing heavily to the ground, killing him instantly.

The entire process was fluid and seamless, with no suspense whatsoever.

Silence, an eerie silence!

Witnessing this scene, the surrounding crowd seemed to turn to stone, frozen on the spot, unable to recover for a long time.

One move!

Just one move, and the old man in the grey robe, a Great Dou Master, was easily killed!

Just how strong was this guy?!

Not only were the people around shocked, but even Xiao Yi Xian's pretty face was filled with astonishment and surprise, her beautiful eyes staring blankly at Xiao Tian.

She had been worried that Kyle's death would bring trouble, as the Snake Nest Mercenary Group was powerful. Now, it seemed there was no need to worry at all.

Because this overbearing guy was simply too formidable!

At this moment, seeing their leader and guardian instantly killed, the remaining mercenaries of the Snake Nest Mercenary Group all showed panic on their faces. They scattered and fled in all directions, completely devoid of their previous arrogance and dominance.

However, just as they had run about two meters, their pupils suddenly contracted, blood bizarrely flowed from their seven orifices, and they fell to the ground, dead!

All of them had died from Xiao Tian's soul attack.

"You... you actually killed them all!"

At this point, after recovering from his shock, the middle-aged man from the Myriad Medicine Pavilion looked at the bodies of the mercenaries lying dead on the ground. His throat bobbed, his body trembled, and large beads of sweat broke out on his forehead as he stared at Xiao Tian in utter terror.

"I told you not to mess with me, but he didn't listen. Are you blaming me?!" Shrugging, Xiao Tian spread his hands, looking innocent.

With the situation having escalated to this point, no one had expected it, and no one dared to discuss it further. Especially those who had previously held biases against Xiao Tian were now silent as cicadas in winter, not daring to utter a sound.

As the night deepened, the stars filled the sky, and a crescent moon hung in the firmament. The Myriad Medicine Pavilion's herb-gathering mission was finally complete.

Xiao Tian sat by the campfire, its light reflecting his handsome profile.

"Um, I... I need to go back now. Can you tell me your name?" At this moment, a weak female voice came from the side.

Xiao Tian slowly turned his head, and his eyes fell upon a slender, graceful figure standing before him.

Her clothes were very thin, and her collarbones, delicate jade neck, and alluring cleavage were clearly visible. Under the moonlight, she looked even more captivating.

Xiao Tian's gaze lingered on her delicate body for a moment, then a playful curve appeared at the corner of his mouth:

"What, am I very important to you?!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian's pretty face instantly flushed red to her neck. She bit her cherry lips, a hint of anger in her voice, and said indignantly, "Fine if you won't tell me, I'm leaving right now!"

With that, Xiao Yi Xian stomped her delicate foot and turned to leave, though she was clearly reluctant.

"My name is Xiao Tian." A faint smile played on Xiao Tian's lips as his voice drifted leisurely from beside the campfire.

"Xiao Tian..." Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian softly murmured the name a few times, then turned to leave, preparing to return with the Myriad Medicine Pavilion's team.

However, just as she had walked about two meters, the young man's voice called out from behind her again:

"Take some Marrow Flowers before you go!"

Saying that, hundreds of brightly colored Marrow Flowers instantly appeared in Xiao Tian's hand. These were obtained from the day's system sign-in and had miraculous healing effects.

Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian stopped in her tracks. After a moment of hesitation, her face finally flushed as she hugged the Marrow Flowers and hurried away.

"Wow, Xiao Yi Xian, he gave you so many Marrow Flowers! 1... 2... 3... 520 flowers, there are actually 520!" Not far away, Lifie's joyful and excited cheers could still be vaguely heard.

"520, 520, I love you, I love you, could he be..." Suddenly realizing this, a blush crept onto the young girl's face. Xiao Yi Xian's heart pounded wildly, her chest thumping, and a blush spread across her beautiful face, resembling a budding rose.

ps: Careful readers should have noticed that the protagonist transmigrated earlier than Xiao Yan, so the setting is that he hasn't read Battle Through the Heavens. It's equivalent to the protagonist walking Xiao Yan's path, but forging an invincible one. As for those asking about the female lead, all the ones you like will appear and be written about later. Thank you!
