"I wonder how Xiao Yi Xian is doing. Even though I was the one who killed the Young Commander of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, who knows if the Wolf Head Mercenary Group will take their anger out on Xiao Yi Xian? I'd better go see her." The more Jia Lie Jun thought about it, the more worried he became. Without delaying any further, he immediately rushed toward the Myriad Medicine Pavilion.

At the Myriad Medicine Pavilion, Xiao Yi Xian was holding the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture and reading it with great interest. All kinds of medicinal ingredients were laid out on the wooden table before her. Suddenly, a burst of noise came from downstairs. Curious, she was just about to go down and take a look, but when she remembered she was currently imprisoned, she could only give up helplessly.

With a bang, the door was kicked open. Xiao Yi Xian jumped in fright, turned to look, then immediately said with a delighted expression, "Jia Lie Jun, why are you here?"

"I was a little worried about you, so I came back to take a look, but someone stopped me outside the door, so I forced my way in. Right, why have you been imprisoned?" Jia Lie Jun asked with concern.

"I don't know who spread the news that I obtained a treasure in the Monster Beast Mountain Range. Boss Yao coveted it, and since Mu Li died in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, he was afraid the Myriad Medicine Pavilion would be implicated, so he imprisoned me and planned to hand me over to the Wolf Fang Mercenary Group to calm their anger." Seeing Jia Lie Jun's concerned expression, Xiao Yi Xian felt warmth in her heart.

"Let's go. I'll take you out, and wipe out the Wolf Fang Mercenary Group while I'm at it." Jia Lie Jun held Xiao Yi Xian's hand, his face calm and unconcerned, as if he were talking about something utterly insignificant.

"Jia Lie Jun, if you don't want to die, I advise you not to stick your nose into this. Leave Xiao Yi Xian behind, and I'll let you go." At the entrance of the Myriad Medicine Pavilion, Boss Yao led a group of mercenaries to block Jia Lie Jun's path. Boss Yao, who had originally looked quite kind, was now glaring at the two of them with a savage expression, his eyes filled with killing intent.

Jia Lie Jun acted as if he had not heard him. His steps did not pause. With a thought, a cluster of Purple Fire appeared in his hand and shot explosively toward the crowd. Everyone hurriedly dodged, yet before they could even counterattack, their eyes suddenly widened. They clutched their throats with both hands as blood sprayed out, then collapsed to the ground, no longer making a sound. The surrounding onlookers immediately felt a chill run from their tailbones all the way to the backs of their heads, staring at Jia Lie Jun in terror as if they were looking at a god of slaughter.

"Boss Yao, are you still going to stop me?" Jia Lie Jun looked at Boss Yao with a beaming smile, but that smile made Boss Yao feel cold all over. His legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground, not daring to meet Jia Lie Jun's eyes. He could not even muster the slightest courage to resist.

The Purple Fire in Jia Lie Jun's hand transformed into dozens of arrows. Just as he was about to shoot them at Boss Yao, Xiao Yi Xian tugged at his hand and said softly, "Let him go. During the time I worked at the Myriad Medicine Pavilion, he took good care of me. Besides, if Boss Yao dies, the Myriad Medicine Pavilion will have to close its doors for good, and those mercenaries will suffer."

"All right, on your account, I'll spare his life. Sigh, you're still too kind." Jia Lie Jun sighed, his face full of helplessness. Immediately, he picked Xiao Yi Xian up around the waist, his body trembled, and a pair of purple wings spread out from his back. With a slight flap, he flew into the sky.

In the sky, Xiao Yi Xian tightly hugged Jia Lie Jun's strong, powerful waist, burying her head in his chest with an expression of enjoyment. Then she raised her head and asked in confusion, "Jia Lie Jun, how did you kill so many people in an instant?"

Jia Lie Jun smiled and said softly, "Take a close look around me."

Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian widened her eyes. She saw dozens of silver needles as thin as hair floating around Jia Lie Jun, flickering with faint light under the sun. Immediately, she said in astonishment, "Did you use these silver needles to kill them?"

Jia Lie Jun nodded, then asked, "Well? Want to learn? I can teach you."

Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian froze for a moment, then immediately said excitedly, "I want to learn. Teach me."

Jia Lie Jun said with ill intentions, "You can learn if you want, but you'll have to pay a little price." His gaze swept over Xiao Yi Xian's delicate body, the meaning self-evident. Xiao Yi Xian instantly understood. Her face flushed, and she viciously twisted the soft flesh at Jia Lie Jun's waist. Jia Lie Jun bared his teeth in pain and repeatedly begged for mercy.

"That's what you get for teasing me, you bastard." Xiao Yi Xian pouted and said resentfully, her face full of smugness.

"Is that the Wolf Head Mercenary Group?" Jia Lie Jun asked, pointing at a fortress. The fortress had been built in the dense forest, and under the cover of the lush, towering trees, it appeared quite well hidden.

Xiao Yi Xian nodded. Immediately, Jia Lie Jun slowly descended, set Xiao Yi Xian down from his arms, and said softly, "You stay here. I'm afraid you'll get caught up in the battle later."

Xiao Yi Xian pondered for a moment, a trace of disappointment on her face, then slowly nodded and said softly, "Be careful. If you really can't handle it, run away quickly. Don't force yourself."

"Don't worry. There won't be any danger," Jia Lie Jun comforted softly.

With a bang, the mountain gate exploded apart. The soldiers guarding the city wall shouted, "This is bad! Someone's invading!"

Immediately, a large group of mercenaries rushed out of the mountain gate. When they saw it was a young man, they instantly burst into loud laughter. "Old Wang, what are you panicking for? A brat who hasn't even grown all his hair yet scared you like this? How useless." In the crowd, a bare-chested mercenary mocked the guard on the city wall.

Jia Lie Jun clapped his hands together, and a cluster of Purple Fire appeared in his palm. His five fingers gradually closed, the space in his palm gradually shrinking, and the Purple Fire was compressed into a sphere the size of a glass bead, which he tossed into the crowd. Jia Lie Jun snapped his fingers. The small fireball immediately exploded among the crowd, and miserable howls rose one after another. That group of mercenaries was blasted until arms and legs were missing, while some with weaker strength were killed on the spot.

"Who dares behave so wildly here?" A furious shout rang out. Those mercenaries who had looked as if they had lost their parents immediately filled with joy and said viciously to Jia Lie Jun, "Kid, our three leaders are here. You're dead for sure."

Jia Lie Jun looked toward the voice and saw three men. The one in the lead was a middle-aged man holding a refined iron spear, its spearhead gleaming brightly. The other two stood separately on either side and looked slightly younger. The man on the left held an iron staff. He was thin and gaunt, with a feminine face, giving off an especially gloomy feeling. The man on the right was barehanded, with a burly build, a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and a strong, resonant presence. These three were the three commanders of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group: First Commander Mu She, Second Commander Gan Mu, and Third Commander He Meng.

"First Commander, it should be this kid who killed the Young Commander. That night, the Young Commander took some men to follow this kid and left me behind to keep watch, but once the Young Commander left, he never came back." A mercenary in the crowd pointed at Jia Lie Jun and shouted sternly.

Hearing this, Mu She flew into a rage. Dou Qi surged violently throughout his body, the veins on his face stood out, and his teeth ground together with a creak. He shouted loudly, "Kid, I will never spare you! Today, I'll avenge my son and cut off your head to console his spirit in heaven!"
