BTTH: From Genius to Invincible

Chapter 73: Chapter 73: Rescue Mission



"What?"

Not only Mu She, but even Mr. Yao was momentarily stunned by this news. Both of them immediately sat up straight. Mu She grabbed the mercenary and demanded, "How many people did he bring?"

"Just him alone!" the mercenary replied with a strange expression.

"Alone?"

Mu She and Mr. Yao's faces twitched as they exchanged glances, as if they had misheard.

Mu She blurted out in disbelief, "Is he crazy or just plain stupid? Not only is the entire compound filled with all the members of our Wolf Head Mercenary Company, but there are also mercenaries from the Thousand Medicine House. And you're saying he charged in by himself?"

The mercenary quickly nodded, then shook his head and clarified, "To be precise, he didn't charge in. He's currently at the entrance of the Thousand Medicine House. He took down a few guards and demanded that Mr. Yao and the Company Leader go out to meet him."

"So that's how it is." A look of realization dawned on Mr. Yao's face as he smiled.

"Mr. Yao, do you know something?" Mu She asked, puzzled.

With a smile still on his face, Mr. Yao looked at Little Fairy Doctor and said, "That kid probably came to rescue Little Fairy Doctor out of desperation and had no choice but to show himself."

"Out of desperation?"

"Based on our estimates, for Xiao Yan to have killed Mu Li, a 6-star Dou Practitioner, and twenty mercenaries back then, his cultivation level must have been at least that of an 8-star or even 9-star Dou Practitioner."

Mu She nodded in agreement. His son Mu Li had begun learning a Low Xuan Class Dou Technique. Although he had just started, he was not afraid to face 7-star Dou Practitioners.

"That Xiao Yan must have obtained powerful Xuan Class Qi Methods and Dou Techniques from that cave. Even if he hasn't broken through to the Dou Master realm yet, his strength is definitely not inferior to one. That's why he dares to come and rescue her."

Mu She's expression turned even more grim. The Xuan Class Qi Methods and Dou Techniques from that cave were supposed to belong to his Wolf Head Mercenary Company! Not only were they taken by someone else, his own son had died a wrongful death!

"Escort Little Fairy Doctor away. If that brat is willing to exchange the items from the cave, it's not as if I can't spare you two lovebirds," Mu She said in a cold manner. However, the look in his eyes revealed that he had no intention of letting go of his son's murderer.

He strode out of the main hall with a dark expression and ordered icily, "Have someone block the estate's main gate. I want him to know that this is not a place where he can come and go as he pleases!"

"Understood!" The mercenary's face also flashed a sinister smile before he quickly turned to relay the orders.

Little Fairy Doctor remained calm when she heard this. Only she knew what had transpired in the cave that night.

That couldn't really be called a battle; it was a one-sided massacre. Xiao Yan's strength at the time had definitely surpassed Mu She's, let alone the Xiao Yan of six months later.

The group quickly passed through the front hall and arrived at the front compound. By the main gate, a youth in black robes stood smiling. Over a dozen Wolf Head mercenaries lay writhing on the ground at his feet.

This was the first time Mu She and Mr. Yao had seen Xiao Yan. A few months ago, they had only heard descriptions of him from the people who registered back then.

"How did you end up in such a sorry state after not seeing you for only a few months?" Xiao Yan looked at the tightly bound Little Fairy Doctor and joked playfully.

For some unknown reason, Little Fairy Doctor did not get angry when she heard Xiao Yan's teasing words. Instead, she felt a warm current that soothed her heart.

"Today, you will pay for your crimes with blood!"

Mu She took a deep breath as he looked at the devastated compound, then pointed at Xiao Yan with a vicious and venomous expression.

Xiao Yan looked at the resentful Mu She thoughtfully and said, "So you're Mu Li's father? There is some resemblance, especially that impotent, enraged look. It's exactly the same."

!!!!

Mu She drew a long spear with a clang, ready to fight Xiao Yan to the death. Mr. Yao hurriedly pulled him back and said in a low voice, "First get the treasures from the cave, then he's all yours."

Mr. Yao then stepped forward with a friendly smile and said, "Little friend Xiao Yan, I know you and Little Fairy Doctor share a deep bond. But she poisoned the residents of Qingshan Town. We must obtain the medical compendium from the cave to treat the people."

Xiao Yan gave a slight smile, clearly understanding Mr. Yao's implication. With a flip of his hand, a scroll and an ancient recipe appeared in his grasp.

The moment the scroll and recipe appeared, the breathing of Mu She and the others noticeably quickened.

"High Xuan Class Flying Dou Technique 'Eagle Wings' and an ancient medicinal recipe. These are what you want?" The large characters on the cover that read 'High Xuan Class' were particularly eye-catching. Xiao Yan waved the Eagle Wings scroll and the recipe with a

beaming smile.

"Hand them over now!" Mu She and Mr. Yao bellowed in unison.

Xiao Yan took out a fire starter and said, "Don't shout so loudly. If you startle me and my hand

slips, I can't be held responsible if they get burned."

"What exactly do you want!" Mu She was so furious he gnashed his teeth. Right now he

wished for nothing more than to run Xiao Yan through with his spear.

"It's simple. A person in exchange for the items. Have Little Fairy Doctor walk over here and

I'll give you what you want."

Mu She and Mr. Yao exchanged glances and nodded slightly to each other.

"Go ahead."

Step by step, Little Fairy Doctor walked through the crowd of mercenaries toward Xiao Yan. He also approached her smiling, as if delivering himself into a trap.

"Xiao Lan!" Suddenly, Xiao Yan shouted and threw the Dou Technique scroll into the air to draw everyone's attention.

Chirp chirp!! Xiao Lan dove down from the sky. In a flash, Xiao Yan dashed in front of Little Fairy Doctor, grabbed her, and threw her into the air.

Chirp! Xiao Lan transformed into a blue light and steadily caught Little Fairy Doctor.

"You guys wait up there for a while, you can come down after I take care of things down here."

Xiao Yan even had the leisure to wave at Little Fairy Doctor in the sky.

Mu She grabbed the Dou Technique scroll Xiao Yan had tossed. When he opened it and saw it was indeed a genuine technique, he could no longer hide the smile on his face. "Remember, this technique can only be practiced by one person."

But when Mu She read the final line of the scroll, his expression instantly went blank. Then, an intense rage erupted from within him as terrifying Dou Qi burst forth.

"Ahhhh!!!"

"Kill him!!"

More and more Wolf Head members poured out from the compound, eventually surrounding Xiao Yan with vicious expressions, their gleaming weapons reflecting a chilling light under

the sun.

Including the Thousand Medicine House's own guards, there were about a hundred Dou Practitioners surrounding Xiao Yan. He could only shake his head, seeming a bit helpless. "I, Xiao Yan, am not an unreasonable person. I'll give you a chance to escape now. Anyone who leaves the compound within ten seconds will be spared, no questions asked." But unfortunately, good advice often falls on deaf ears. No one was willing to listen.

Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness as he saw those mercenaries charging at him like a pack of ravenous wolves and their eyes filled with greed.

"Mad Lion Chant."

ROAR!! The sound of a lion's roar emanated from Xiao Yan's body as the illusory figure of a blood-red, ferocious lion enveloped him.

Fingers curled like claws, he swung his right hand forward in a violent manner. The illusory mad lion behind him also slashed out with a bloody claw, leaving five bloody gashes that tore through all living things before him.

In an instant, the bodies of more than a dozen mercenaries were instantly ripped apart, sliced like vegetables with a single swipe.

Half a year ago, dealing with a hundred Dou Practitioners, including several 9-star Dou Practitioners and a 2-star Dou Master, would have required a great deal of effort on his part. But things were different now. The Mad Lion Chant provided him with a Dou Technique capable of inflicting widespread damage. If he were to use Octane Blast to fight them one punch at a time, who knows how long it would take.

"Blood Fury Mad Lion!"
