Starting as a supporting character in Doupo

Finally, Xun'er added a sentence.

"And Brother Xiao Fan."

Watching several Black Annihilation Army soldiers pull the unconscious Ling Quan out and lift him onto the unicorn, Xun'er then stood on the unicorn's back and smiled slightly at Xiao Fan and the other person.

With a flap of its wings, the giant unicorn soared into the sky.

Xiao Yan watched the dark shadow gradually disappear into the sky, his voice filled with reluctance.

"Senior brother, I will definitely see Xun'er again, right?"

After a long while, there was still no response.

"Senior brother?"

Xiao Yan turned his head and saw that Xiao Fan was leaning against the spear that had fallen behind him at some point, and had fallen into a coma.

"Brother!"

Chapter 234 Senior Brother, I'm Waiting for Your Shura Field! (Fourth Update)

Xiao Yan looked at Xiao Fan, who was leaning against the wall and had fallen into a deep sleep.

It was both frustrating and funny.

At that moment, the old doctor's faint voice rang out from his heart.

"Take your senior brother back first. There are still people watching around, so I can't make a move for now."

After saying that, the old doctor's voice disappeared again.

Xiao Yan's eyes flickered when he heard what Yao Lao said.

Without needing a reminder, he could guess that the person Yao Lao was referring to as being secretly working for the academy was probably an elder.

After all, with such a large force as the Black Annihilation Army, it would be strange if the Inner Court didn't pay attention.

Xiao Yan lowered his head, casually hoisted Xiao Fan onto his back, and then flew towards the inner courtyard.

After the two left, a patch of space not far away distorted.

The figure of the First Elder emerged from the crowd, gazing in the direction where Xiao Yan and the others had departed, lost in thought and remaining silent.

After a long while, the elder shook his head, and his figure disappeared again, leaving only a faint voice that dissipated with the wind.

"A Seven-Star Dou Ling's strength is actually enough to defeat a Dou Huang..."

Inside the Panmen rest room, Xiao Yan looked at Yao Lao, who was examining Xiao Fan, and hurriedly asked, "Teacher, how is Senior Brother?"

"Do not worry."

Yao Lao opened his eyes, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Xiao Yan, "Your senior brother is fine, but his physical body is severely damaged. It seems that it is because of the secret technique he used. The excessive power made his body unable to withstand it."

"It's just that for some reason, his body is protected by a strange energy, and coupled with his special physique and amazing recovery ability, he is not seriously injured."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan was about to nod when he noticed that Yao Lao's expression changed instantly.

Just as he was about to speak, he saw a small, seven-colored snake emerge from Xiao Fan's sleeve.

A hint of doubt flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes, then, as if he had just realized something, he stared in horror at the seven-colored snake and exclaimed, "Medusa!!?"

As Xiao Yan finished speaking, the seven-colored snake slid off Xiao Fan's arm and transformed into a tall figure in a flash of white light.

Xiao Yan instantly produced the Xuan Heavy Ruler in his hand, and he prepared for battle.

"Don't worry, there shouldn't be any problem."

Yao Lao stopped Xiao Yan's actions and then looked at Medusa with surprise in his voice.

"I've been sensing a hidden aura of power emanating from him all along, but I never expected it to be you."

Medusa glanced at Xiao Fan lying on the bed with her pale purple pupils, frowned, and was not surprised to hear Yao Lao's words. She simply asked softly, "I have been in a deep sleep for some reason. What happened this time?"

The old apothecary glanced thoughtfully at Medusa, sensing Xiao Fan's aura emanating from her.

With a slight smirk, the old apothecary spoke, "I encountered a powerful enemy and used a secret technique, but my body couldn't withstand it."

Medusa nodded upon hearing this.

After all, because she had merged with the soul of the Devouring Python while she was asleep, her perception of the outside world was much weaker. This time, she was able to wake up briefly because of a surge of special energy. Now it seems that it should be the energy that he enhanced by using a secret technique!

The soul of the Devouring Python within Medusa's body is now almost fully integrated, and it is a crucial moment. Seeing that Xiao Fan is unharmed, it immediately transforms back into a small snake and coils around Xiao Fan's arm.

Xiao Yan stared at Medusa, who had slipped back into Xiao Fan's sleeve, her mouth still agape.

She just stared blankly at Xiao Fan lying on the bed.

Who can tell me how my senior brother ended up carrying that terrifying snake-woman queen from the Tagor Desert?

"Alright, snap out of it!"

The old doctor glanced at Xiao Fan on the bed, then turned back to see Xiao Yan looking bewildered. He smiled and then said to Xiao Yan, "Don't worry, in my opinion, she has no ill intentions towards your senior brother."

"why?"

Seeing Xiao Yan's confused look, Yao Lao frowned, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Since she has been staying by your senior brother's side, there must be something between them that we don't know about."

"Also, I sensed your senior brother's aura on him."

Upon hearing Yao Lao's words, Xiao Yan retorted, "If she stays by Senior Brother's side like this all the time, she'll definitely pick up his aura."

Upon hearing this, Yao Lao shook his head and then said to Xiao Yan, "As an alchemist, you should understand the importance of the soul to a person."

Xiao Yan nodded and said, "Just like how you've always told me not to overuse your power, it's because you're worried that my body and soul might develop resistance, which could hinder my future development."

"Not bad!"

The old doctor nodded in agreement.

“Once a soul is tainted by someone else’s aura, it is extremely difficult to remove, and it may even lead to the complete severance of one’s future cultivation path. That’s why I don’t let you overuse my power. Just now, I sensed that Medusa’s soul had the aura of your senior brother, and it was quite strong.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan was greatly shocked. "So, Teacher, you mean... Senior Brother..."

"Don't worry."

Seemingly sensing Xiao Yan's meaning, Yao Lao explained, "The situation between them is probably a bit special."

"When I traveled the continent before, I heard that the snake people had a contract. Once it was formed, the two parties would live and die together, and it could not be easily broken. I didn't know that before. I always thought it was just a rumor, but I didn't expect..."

The old doctor shook his head. "Now it seems that it's not just a rumor."

"There are actually contracts like this?"

Upon hearing Yao Lao's explanation, Xiao Yan asked with some curiosity, "Then why has no one ever talked about it outside?"

Upon hearing this, Yao Lao glanced at Xiao Yan and said indifferently, "Do you think this is just common, irrelevant news?"

"It is said that only the royal family of the snake people is qualified to form such a contract. They can communicate with the power in their bloodline to form a bridge. Moreover, both parties must open their souls to each other without any defenses for the contract to succeed. If either party harbors any ill intentions, the contract will fail."

Hearing what Yao Lao had said, Xiao Yan immediately realized what was going on and looked at Xiao Fan lying on the bed with a surprised expression, saying, "So, Teacher, you mean... Senior Brother and Medusa..."

"It should be."

The old doctor nodded, confirming Xiao Yan's guess.

Hearing Yao Lao's words, Xiao Yan felt a mix of emotions. A Dou Huang, no, now he should be a Dou Zong, a Dou Zong-level existence, actually formed a contract with his senior brother?

Tsk tsk...

Seeing that Xiao Fan was alright, Yao Lao removed the array he had set up in the room. It was thanks to the array that Medusa appeared earlier that the inner elders would have discovered her.

The old doctor gave Xiao Yan a few more instructions and prepared some medicinal herbs for Xiao Fan to take before entering his storage ring.

Xiao Yan nodded, and then planned to go to the alchemy room to refine some pills. However, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Yue Yao waiting outside.

Seeing Yue Yao's anxious face, Xiao Yan suddenly remembered Medusa who had appeared earlier. A strange smile flashed across his face. He then nodded and walked towards the alchemy room.

What was initially a feeling of envy has suddenly turned into a sense of anticipation for the moment when Yueyao and Medusa collide.

Senior brother, I'm waiting for your showdown!

Chapter 235 The Power of the Moon Goddess (Fifth Update)

With the medicine refined by Xiao Yan, plus Xiao Fan's own strong physique,

Xiao Fan woke up that evening.

But as soon as he woke up, Xiao Fan noticed something strange about his body.

A tearing pain shot through Xiao Fan's body the moment he regained consciousness.

"Ahem..."

She couldn't help but let out a soft groan, which startled Yueyao, who was lying by the bedside.

"you're awake?"

Yueyao looked at Xiao Fan, whose face was pale, and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead, saying with a look of tenderness.

"Ah."

Xiao Fan nodded slightly, then focused his mind on his body.

The meridians throughout his body felt as if they had been torn apart, with cracks of all sizes spreading everywhere.

If someone else had such injuries, they would probably be preparing for their death long ago.

Fortunately, the old doctor was knowledgeable and knew that Xiao Fan couldn't withstand the excessive power in his body. He immediately had Xiao Yan refine some solid pills to strengthen his meridians. In addition, Xiao Fan's physical recovery ability was amazing, so he was not completely damaged.
