First Meeting with Little Doctor Fairy

Once Hai Bodong had finished dealing with the members of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, Xiao Yan slowly descended from the second floor.

The impact of this entrance was absolute.

Ka Gang and Qing Ye stood frozen in their tracks; the strength Hai Bodong had just displayed was at least that of a Great Dou Shi.

Yet, the Xiao Yan who appeared last exerted an even greater sense of oppression upon them.

"Brother Ka Gang, do you think this young man is a young master from some great family?" Qing Ye asked, clutching Ka Gang's sleeve.

Ka Gang replied woodenly, "I suppose so. It seems his background is not small. It looks like the good days of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group are coming to an end. Without so many elites, they will never be able to compete with our Blood Battle Mercenary Group again."

Xiao Yan walked outside and looked at the twenty-some lifelike ice sculptures without a ripple of emotion.

"I did not come here to cause trouble, but these people insisted on provoking me. My actions just now were purely in self-defense. I hope everyone can understand."

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, the residents of Green Mountain Town nodded in agreement.

In any case, the members of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group were not good people; if they died, they died. Looking at Xiao Yan, he didn't seem the least bit afraid of that Dou Shi, Mu She.

After speaking, Xiao Yan looked toward Qing Ye. The original story had mentioned quite a bit about her figure, and seeing it in person was truly quite shocking.

However, Xiao Yan had come here to complete system missions, and he certainly had to clear all the dungeons; getting to know them was surely one of the tasks.

Thus, Xiao Yan walked up to Ka Gang and Qing Ye and said with a smile, "The two of you must be from the Blood Battle Mercenary Group, right?"

Ka Gang nodded. He and Qing Ye stated their names, and Xiao Yan likewise revealed his own.

"Alright, then we can consider ourselves acquainted," Xiao Yan said cheerfully.

Ka Gang was stunned for a moment, while Qing Ye simply nodded.

"Good. Since we're acquainted, I won't need to make a trip to the Blood Battle Mercenary Group. I look forward to seeing you again."

After saying this, Xiao Yan took Hai Bodong and headed toward the Ten Thousand Medicine Pavilion.

Little Doctor Fairy was in the courtyard drying medicinal herbs when she saw her maidservant running over from the front in a panicked rush.

"Miss! The boss is looking for you, it's urgent!"

Little Doctor Fairy paused, then asked suspiciously, "What's so urgent?"

"Do you remember that Xiao Yan who was mentioned earlier? The one who killed Mu Li? Everyone outside is saying that Xiao Yan has a Great Dou Shi expert behind him, and that he wiped out the Wolf Head Mercenary Group in an instant."

The herbs in Little Doctor Fairy's hands dropped, and she hurried toward Master Yao's room.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yan and Hai Bodong were drinking tea in Master Yao's room.

Master Yao was fawning over them with a face full of smiles, until Xiao Yan finally grew annoyed.

"Tell me, your name is Master Yao, right?" Xiao Yan replied impatiently.

Master Yao hurriedly said, "My Lord is too kind. You can just call me Little Yao. I am the owner here; I can satisfy any request the two of you might have."

Xiao Yan toyed with the cup in his hand, waiting for Little Doctor Fairy to arrive.

Finally, a young girl dressed in a white gown with a waist as slender as a willow branch pushed the door open and walked in.

Although Xiao Yan had never met Little Doctor Fairy, based on the descriptions in the original story, he was certain that the person before him was indeed her.

Little Doctor Fairy hesitated the moment she entered the room. She had forgotten that she didn't even know Xiao Yan, so why had she rushed over so quickly?

Seeing that Little Doctor Fairy had arrived, Master Yao quickly spoke up, "Little Doctor Fairy, this is Lord Xiao Yan. He specifically asked to see you; hurry over here!"

Little Doctor Fairy stood there woodenly, and Xiao Yan said with a smile, "You must be Little Doctor Fairy. My name is Xiao Yan."

"Hello, Xiao Yan," Little Doctor Fairy replied timidly.

Xiao Yan glanced at Master Yao beside him. Master Yao understood immediately and quickly said, "Lord Xiao Yan, you two go ahead and talk; I'll head out first."

As he left, he took the liberty of closing the door behind him.

Even after both had introduced themselves, Xiao Yan still hadn't heard the system's notification.

Xiao Yan nearly had a mental breakdown. It seemed he couldn't avoid a trip to the cave; clearing this dungeon was proving to be too difficult.

However, there was a flight Dou Technique in that cave. Although the System Mall had them—and even higher-grade ones at that—the price was a bit of a dilemma for Xiao Yan. Those Summoning Points were being saved to exchange for pills for Hai Bodong.

Little Doctor Fairy took a small step back and asked Xiao Yan, "Is there something you need from me? In my memory, it seems we don't know each other."

"Don't we know each other now? Besides, I have a matter that requires your help." Xiao Yan continued to try and influence Little Doctor Fairy with his bright, hearty smile.

However, Little Doctor Fairy didn't seem to be buying it.

"If there is something, just say it. But my strength is so low, I probably can't be of much help to you." Little Doctor Fairy lowered her head, not daring to look at Xiao Yan at all.

A sense of protectiveness immediately rose in Xiao Yan's heart. This Little Doctor Fairy was truly a man's "white moonlight"!

She was just too pure and appeared so kind. Yet, whenever Xiao Yan recalled the scene from the original story where Little Doctor Fairy poisoned an entire city in an instant, cold sweat broke out on his back.

"Little Doctor Fairy, I heard that you found a cave in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. Could you take me to see it?"

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Little Doctor Fairy immediately clenched her hands nervously, her left hand reaching toward her pocket as if to grab something.

Xiao Yan hurriedly explained, "Please, don't misunderstand. I heard about this by chance. As long as you lead us to that cave, I guarantee that I will give you half of whatever is inside."

Little Doctor Fairy's peach-blossom eyes stared fixedly at Xiao Yan, and the two stood in a standoff for a long time.

"Stop trying to fool me; I haven't told a single soul about that matter," Little Doctor Fairy said earnestly.

Xiao Yan rolled his eyes and bluffed, "Little Doctor Fairy, with so many people who went herb-gathering with you back then, can you really guarantee that no one else stumbled upon it?"

Hearing Xiao Yan's explanation, Little Doctor Fairy began to reflect. If he put it that way, she couldn't be certain that others didn't know.

Xiao Yan struck while the iron was hot, "Little Doctor Fairy, we must reach that place before too many people find out. Otherwise, if someone else beats us to it, we'll end up with nothing. Besides, you must have heard that I just wiped out so many men from the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, so you should understand my strength."

Little Doctor Fairy was somewhat troubled. With her own strength at only the ninth stage of Qi Disciple, it was impossible for her to venture into the Magical Beast Mountain Range alone.

If she waited for the next herb-gathering team, it would be hard to avoid being discovered by others.

Furthermore, even if she reached that cave, a simple trap would be enough to finish her off.

Xiao Yan did not urge her, simply waiting for Little Doctor Fairy to decide.

In less than half an incense stick of time, Little Doctor Fairy spoke up, "I can take you there, but I have two conditions!"

Xiao Yan gave a wicked smile; he would agree to any number of conditions.
