Shout All You Want-Do You Think Anyone Will Come Save You If You Scream Your Throat Raw...?

"What was so surprising about that?"

Xiao Lang did not hide anything and readily admitted it.

"What are you trying to do?"

Ya Fei realized that she could not quite see through the young man before her. He was not even twenty, yet he had supported such a large force.

It was said that the mercenary group had a Dou Emperor expert overseeing it!

One had to know that in the Jia Ma Empire, a Dou Emperor was enough to make a force first-rate!

"I'm not trying to do anything. I just want to unify the Dou Qi Continent. After all, the world is so vast, but it all has to lie beneath my feet."

Xiao Lang leaned lazily against the sofa and spoke as if he were discussing something utterly insignificant.

"..."

Ya Fei did not speak. Instead, she stared blankly at the man before her. She knew his ambitions were great, but she had not expected them to be this great.

Unify the Dou Qi Continent?

The Dou Qi Continent was boundless. How difficult would it be to unify it?

"Hehe, a mere Dou Zhe like you wants to unify the continent? You almost had me believing it. Even if your master is a seventh-tier alchemist, he's only a Dou Emperor."

Ya Fei suddenly came to her senses. He was merely a Dou Zhe under twenty years old, yet his words had actually startled her. She could not help but chuckle. "A Dou Emperor might be powerful in the Jia Ma Empire, but across the entire Dou Qi Continent, one is nothing more than an ant."

"You should know that above Dou Emperors are Dou Zongs, Dou Venerables, and more. I advise you not to aim too high. Just cultivate properly and don't waste your talent."

"That's not something you need to worry about." Xiao Lang stood up with a confident smile, then walked toward the door. He finally stopped at the entrance and said, "Prepare one billion gold coins. At most, I'll only stay in Wutan City for another year or two."

Then he turned back to look at the bewitching woman. "If you want to become my woman, you should do it soon. Otherwise, you'll regret it later."

"Get lost!"

Ya Fei angrily hurled the teacup in her hand at Xiao Lang. Xiao Lang smiled, turned around, and left the room.

The old man took the chance to enter, looking solemnly at Ya Fei. "Miss, that brat has advanced to Dou Master!"

"What? A Dou Master? You're saying he's a Dou Master before even reaching twenty?" Ya Fei's eyes widened. She clearly knew what such talent represented.

"Hmm? Am I being followed?"

As he left the auction house, he had sensed a hostile gaze fixed on him. Although the other party had concealed it well, he had spent the past three years living on the edge of a blade and was most sensitive to killing intent.

"Since you dare follow me, I'll let you know the price of following me. This is also a good chance to see just how much Dou Qi the Star Absorbing Great Law can absorb."

Xiao Lang pretended not to notice and even deliberately headed toward a less crowded area.

"Heaven is truly helping me."

Seeing this, the assassin hidden in the shadows excitedly licked his lips. The fewer people there were, the less likely he would be discovered. He was only a kid who had just become a Dou Master. As a Six-star Dou Master, he could easily take him down!

"Hmm, going to take a piss?"

When the two assassins saw Xiao Lang loosen his waistband and slip into an alley, they immediately followed him stealthily. They had never expected things to go so smoothly.

It went so smoothly that they even began to suspect it was a trap.

"Hmm? Where is he?"

The moment the assassins entered the alley, they discovered there was no sign of Xiao Lang. But in the next second, they immediately realized it.

Damn it, this really was a trap.

"Hello, three broken thoughts, motherfucker!"

Just as the assassin turned to flee, Xiao Lang suddenly appeared behind him. At the same time, a brilliant golden light burst before his eyes. In the dark alley, the intense radiance was like a blazing sun, making him instinctively shut his eyes.

And the moment his eyes closed, Xiao Lang's Thumping Stick smashed heavily into his head. The assassin was instantly stunned and collapsed to the ground.

"You wanted to ambush me? Didn't you bother asking around about who the Desert Madman is?"

Xiao Lang chuckled and dragged the assassin deeper into the alley, letting out a perverted laugh like some obsessed creep.

"Star Absorbing Great Law!"

Xiao Lang impatiently activated the Star Absorbing Great Law. Imitating Ren Woxing's pose, he pressed his palm against the man's head. As his Dou Qi circulated, a tremendous suction force erupted from his palm.

In an instant, the assassin's body began to tremble uncontrollably. Xiao Lang felt a stream of pure Dou Qi being directly drawn from the other man's body into his own.

As that Dou Qi entered his body, Xiao Lang felt the Dou Qi within him steadily rising. The exhilarating sensation was like taking pills, making him unable to hold back a moan.

"So this is what it feels like to grow stronger by killing people? So damn good!"

Xiao Lang muttered excitedly as he continued absorbing the assassin's Dou Qi.

The Star Absorbing Great Law perfectly solved the problem of his slow Dou Qi cultivation.

"Hmm? That's it?"

Just as Xiao Lang felt he was about to finish, the other party suddenly stopped giving. If you knew, you knew.

"System, what's going on? A Six-star Dou Master only raised my Dou Qi by less than ten percent?" Feeling the increase in his Dou Qi, Xiao Lang could not help asking curiously.

"That is because the Dou Qi has been filtered by this system. It carries no side effects. Otherwise, like Ren Woxing, you would one day suffer a backlash from your inner energy," the system explained.

"So that's how it is. I thought you were skimming some for yourself!" Xiao Lang nodded. Looking at the assassin, who had become an ordinary person, he sighed. "Multiple-choice questions are still faster. One question can raise me by one star. I wonder whether I'll still be able to gain one star from them later on?"

After all, the further he advanced, the greater the gap between each star would become. If one choice could raise him by one star, that would be absolutely amazing.

Looking at the unconscious assassin, Xiao Lang frowned. "Should I harvest this guy's kidneys?"

After all, this world should have organ trafficking too, right?

But when he thought of himself as a successor of the Party, Xiao Lang abandoned that utterly insane idea.

Slap! Slap!

After getting his fill, Xiao Lang directly gave the assassin two hard slaps, forcibly waking him up.

After all, he needed to find out who had sent the man.

He guessed it was most likely someone from the Jia Lie Family. After all, no one in the Tagore Desert knew his true identity yet.

Unless someone wanted to kidnap him to threaten Xiao Ding and Xiao Li.

But that possibility was not very high, because very few people knew Xiao Ding and Xiao Li's identities as well.

"Awake? Did you sleep comfortably?"

As the assassin slowly opened his eyes, Xiao Li wore a sunny, boyish smile. Yet in the assassin's eyes, it looked utterly evil.

"You're courting death!"

Still not understanding what was happening, the assassin instinctively tried to circulate his Dou Qi and attack Xiao Lang. However, he discovered that all the Dou Qi in his body was gone. Just as he was about to shout, he felt two more hard slaps land on his face.

"Go ahead, shout. Do you think anyone will come save you if you scream your throat raw...?"

Xiao Lang adjusted his glasses and grinned, letting out a sinister "Hehehe" laugh.
