Battle Through the Heavens (Vol.1)

Chapter 147: Breaking into the Wolf's Head

Standing on the spacious back of the eagle, Xiao Yan lowered his head and watched the small town shrink as he flew away. He then stared at the spirited blue eagle under him, feeling quite envious; this kind of flying transport was something others would covet for.

As her hand gently touched the blue eagle's feathers, the Fairy Doctor watched Xiao Yan's expression and could not resist laughing, "Why? Are you interested in my Xiao Lan? But I will not give it to you. It has accompanied me for many years."

"I might be jealous but I will not snatch other people's favorite things. And even if you were willing, I would not agree." Xiao Yan shook his head with a smile. He knew that in the Dou Qi continent, owning a pet that can help one in combat required the owner and the Magic Beast to build a relationship since there was no special contract that would bind them. However, a Magic Beast is an aggressive creature, so only a lucky few would have the opportunity to befriend and obtain their loyalty.

The Fairy Doctor only gained the loyalty of this First Ranked Magic Beast Blue Eagle when she happened to save its life a few years ago. If she gave it to Xiao Yan, it was likely that the eagle would immediately unfold its wings and fly into the mountains.

Gently stroking the feathers of the blue eagle with a smile, the Fairy Doctor said softly, "Even though Magic Beasts are very fierce, if you manage to win their loyalty, they will never betray you. On this front, they are much better than humans."

Sharing her feelings, Xiao Yan shook his head. He shifted his gaze to the fast moving ground and asked, "Where is the headquarters of the Wolf Head Mercenary Company?"

"The headquarters of the Wolf Head Mercenary Company is stationed on the south end of Qingshan Town. That region is almost entirely occupied by them." Her delicate finger pointed in the direction that the Blue Eagle was flying toward as she said.

"After living in Qingshan Town for so many years, you ought to know the number of members and the overall strength of the Wolf Head Mercenary Company, right?" Xiao Yan seriously inquired.

"Ahh, the Wolf Head Mercenary Company had developed in Qingshan town for over ten years and should have around seventy to eighty members. Most of the members' strengths are between two to five stars Dou Practitioner. The Wolf Head Mercenary Company has three Company Leaders. One of them, He Meng has already died in your hands so there's only Mu She and Gan Mu."

"Uh, Gan Mu? I met him on the way so... I got rid off him along the way." Hearing the name, Xiao Yan waved his hand and interrupted the Fairy Doctor with a laugh.

Hearing this, the Fairy Doctor paused. Her frozen gaze stared at Xiao Yan for a long while before nodding her snow white chin. With a grin, she said, "It looks like I have once again underestimated your strength. It should be known that Gan Mu is a nine star Dou Practitioner. Since you could easily kill him, you should have the approximate strength of a nine star Dou Practitioner, no?"

"Haha." Xiao Yan smiled and nodded without acknowledging or denying.

"From what you have said, the current Wolf Head Mercenary Company should be left with only Mu She who can fight with you. The others aren't your match." The Fairy Doctor voiced her thoughts.

"But they have a large number of people and because of some reasons, I am not versed in dealing with a situation of one against many." Xiao Yan sighed regretfully. Although he was well versed in a couple of Black class Dou Technique, his Qi Method was only at a Low Yellow level. The Dou Qi that can be created and stored by the level of this Qi Method was insufficient to support any attempt to kill over a hundred people.

"Those mercenaries are not a problem." The Fairy Doctor shook her head and took out a small jade bottle from her pocket. She overturned it and poured a colorful pill out. She handed it to Xiao Yan and smiled, "With the help of the Seven Colored Poison Book, the poison that I can now create should be able to easily make those below a five star Dou Practitioner to lose their fighting strength or maybe even kill them."
