BTTH: Thunder Emperor

Chapter 17: BTTH-Chapter 17: Kill Mu Li.



BTTH-Chapter 17: Kill Mu Li.

The King Kong Bear, stimulated by its own blood, roared again and rushed over. The man and the bear fought again. Xiao Tian gradually became more familiar with the two-meter-long halberd in his hand, mastering upward thrusts, straight piercings, sweeping motions, and vertical chops, transitioning to hooks, pecking, locking, and cutting later on.

Finally, the two opponents collided and separated again. Xiao Tian looked at his tattered clothes and skin injuries, then glanced at the King Kong Bear opposite him, whose fur was stained red with blood. He felt bored. In an instant, he moved sideways ten meters and suddenly appeared behind the King Kong Bear, which had lost too much blood and became unresponsive. A lion head shape condensed on his fist.

"Thunder - Lion!"

The lion's head struck the bear's heart hard, piercing its body, which fell to the ground.

Looking at the fallen King Kong Bear, Xiao Tian waved his hand, and a second-grade blood-healing pill and a third-grade energy-recovering pill appeared. He threw them directly into his mouth. In an instant, the wounds on his body scabbed over, and his Dou Qi was significantly restored.

...

In the Monster Mountain Range, after killing the King Kong Bear, Xiao Tian found a water source. After washing the blood off his body and putting on a new set of clothes, he found a cave not far from the water source. A quick survey revealed that it was abandoned. After a simple cleanup, Xiao Tian sat cross-legged and began to practice and digest the day's gains.

Early the next morning, Xiao Tian opened his tightly closed eyes, felt the breath in his body, and clenched his fists. "I finally broke through to six stars, and Yang Fire Thunder has also condensed into two strands, which is much slower than Righteous Wood Thunder. It seems that the later it is, the harder it gets. I wonder when the system will reward something to accelerate condensation."

Stretching his body, Xiao Tian walked out of the cave, confirmed the direction, and walked slowly. "It's about time; Xiao Yixian should also be preparing to get the treasure in the cave."

Xiao Tian could easily retrieve everything himself, but there was nothing he must take. Moreover, the purpose of coming to Qingshan Town was to check in and see Xiao Yixian. It would be far less interesting to explore the treasure without her. Hehe, those who understand will understand.

"What do you want to do?"

As Xiao Tian walked through a forest, he heard a woman's angry shout. The voice felt somewhat familiar, so he moved his feet and instantly appeared ten meters away. In a few quick moves, he reached the source of the sound.

Xiao Tian stood on a tree and looked down: "Isn't this Xiao Yixian?"

At that moment, Xiao Yixian was surrounded by a young man and a dozen mercenaries. Outside the encirclement lay more than twenty corpses—left behind by a fierce fight between her protectors and the Wolf Head Mercenary Group. However, all her protectors had been killed.

The young man looked at the Little Medical Fairy leaning against the tree and said, "What do I want to do? Don't you know? Where is the treasure? You've been wandering around for days without taking the treasure after waiting so long. If you don't tell me, I will execute you on the spot, and we will see how you can be stubborn."

"How do you know?" the Little Medical Fairy asked tremulously.

"Hahaha, of course, it's your stupid assistant. She told me everything with just a few sweet words. Since you still won't say anything, then I can only..." The young man looked at the Little Medical Fairy with an evil smile.

"Tsk tsk, it's not good to force a beautiful woman like this in broad daylight."

"Who? Who are you? How dare you interfere in the affairs of this young leader?" Hearing the sudden voice, the young man shouted, turned around, and saw a young man sitting on a tree not far behind him.

The Little Medical Fairy, who had been desperate, recognized the voice and felt it was familiar. She raised her head and said, "It's... it's you?"

"You don't need to know who I am. Are you Mu Li, the young leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group?" Xiao Tian guessed after seeing the wolf head badge on the young man and his self-proclaimed title.

"That's right, it's me! Come on, kill this guy and let him know that there is a price to pay for meddling in other people's business." Mu Li waved his hand, leaving only two mercenaries to watch over Xiao Yixian, while the others picked up their weapons and rushed toward Xiao Tian.

"Kid, keep your eyes open in your next life and don't bump into my knife again," a five-star Dou Zhe realm mercenary holding a knife said as he charged forward.

Xiao Tian ignored him and condensed a two-meter-long spear in dark green and red in his hand. He waved it at the person rushing toward him, and a beam of light passed by the Wolf Head members.

Phew!

Dozens of four or five-star Dou Zhe realm Mercenaries who rushed over had their heads severed from their bodies and fell to the ground in an instant. "Captain Mu Li, your subordinates don't seem very capable. Now it's your turn."

Seeing this scene, Mu Li knew he had hit a wall today and begged for mercy: "Sir, I will give you the Little Medical Fairy. She also knows where the treasure is. I have money. I will give it all to you. I only ask you to let me go."

Xiao Tian moved in an instant, and the tip of the halberd cut through the throats of Mu Li and the remaining two mercenaries. Mu Li covered his throat with one hand and pointed at Xiao Tian with the other. He wanted to say something but couldn't. After his throat was cut and blood kept oozing from his mouth, he fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

"After I kill you, won't all those treasures belong to me?"

Xiao Yixian was frightened by this hellish scene and collapsed to the ground. She watched Xiao Tian approach and closed her eyes in fear, but the pain didn't come for a long time. She quietly opened her eyes and saw Xiao Tian looking at her with his hands folded and smiling.

"You won't kill me?" asked the Little Medical Fairy, trying hard to suppress her trembling.

"If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't have saved you."

After taking a close look at Xiao Tian, Xiao Yixian confirmed that he would not kill her and stretched out her hand: "Then... Could you help me up? I'm so scared I can't use my legs."

Xiao Tian glanced at Xiao Yixian's hand, which was as slender as a young catkin and as white as cream. He reached out, grabbed her hand, and felt a soft, boneless touch.

Xiao Tian pulled Xiao Yixian up with a little force, and she immediately stood. Once he let go of her hand, Xiao Yixian leaned against the tree and slowly regained her senses.

A bright red flame appeared in Xiao Tian's hand. With a wave, dozens of flames fell on the surrounding corpses, instantly incinerating them to ashes. After the flames went out, Xiao Tian waved his clothes, blowing away the ashes with a burst of energy. A Qi-recovering pill appeared in his hand. "Okay, it's much cleaner now. This is a Qi-recovering pill. Take it."

Seeing the flame in Xiao Tian's hand and the pill he took out, Xiao Yixian asked, "Are you an Alchemist?"

"Is it strange that I'm an Alchemist?"

Observing Xiao Tian's smug demeanor, Xiao Yixian, who was only recovering from her shock, ignored his arrogance and took the Qi-recovering pill, swallowing it directly.

"Why don't you ask me about the treasure?" Xiao Yixian said after regaining her Dou Qi and standing in front of Xiao Tian.

"No need; I know where it is. Isn't it just beneath this cliff?" Xiao Tian raised his head slightly towards the cliff's direction.

Xiao Yixian looked at Xiao Tian and saw him indicating the treasure's location, her expression one of disbelief: "You... you actually know?"

"I know a lot of things. Let's go down and take a look." Xiao Tian walked directly to the edge of the cliff and looked down. Under the sunlight, if one looked carefully, they could vaguely see the outline of a cave.

Xiao Yixian stared at Xiao Tian, who had his back to her, and a bag of powder appeared in her hand.
