405. Exciting Encounters
After Jiang Yunyan left, Lei Jingxiao's previously tense body visibly relaxed. Then, as if he had gained absolute freedom, Lei Jingxiao was in high spirits and said to Xiao Yan casually, "Alright, you're the leader of you guys, right?"
"good."
At this moment, Xiao Yan was also in high spirits because Little Fairy Doctor's Calamity Poison Body had been completely cured. He didn't show any particular emotion when looking at Lei Jingxiao, but simply judged him to be a spoiled young master. He was exceptionally talented and powerful, but rarely went outside the family, so he could be seen through at a glance.
Judging from Lei Jingxiao's actions, he seems to be more interested in playing around. After all, he doesn't harbor any murderous intent or sins. Lei Jingxiao probably enjoys sparring with others, making him much more endearing than so-called reclusive geniuses like Gu Yao and Ling Zhuo.
"I only have one request: take me to challenge the masters of Zhongzhou. I will also help you if you encounter any trouble!" Lei Jingxiao said confidently.
Xiao Yan and Little Fairy Doctor exchanged a glance, both seeing a mixture of amusement and exasperation in each other's eyes. Xiao Yan then chuckled and asked, "You'll step in if you're in trouble? Do you even have the ability?"
Lei Jingxiao glanced sideways at Xiao Yan: "Xiao Yan, don't really think you're my match. That's just the result of me suppressing my Dou Qi. I'm already a four-star Dou Zun. And you'll experience my combat power for yourself!"
Lei Jingxiao then glanced at Qing Lin, sensing her extraordinary strength. However, he was, after all, a member of the Lei Clan, and had enjoyed top-tier resources since childhood due to his status. He believed that while his level might be lower than Qing Lin's, a true battle wasn't solely based on battle qi levels. Qing Lin lacked top-tier cultivation techniques and fighting skills, so she wouldn't fare well against him!
Seeing Qing Lin's obedient demeanor beside Xiao Yan, Lei Jingxiao knew that the latter clearly regarded him as Xiao Yan's follower and was definitely naive and inexperienced! If he unleashed his full Dou Zun level strength, using a Heaven-rank Dou Technique, the sheer force of his power would likely intimidate Qing Lin. Talent was indeed important, but its effect was limited in the face of the foundation of a hidden great clan!
Xiao Yan, however, showed a hint of admiration: "A four-star Dou Zun, that's quite impressive, but unfortunately, in our team, it's still just average."
"Xiao Yan, do you know what you're saying?"
Qinglin's face turned cold: "How dare you speak to the young master like that?"
Xiao Yan smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, you can try and see who you can beat besides my junior sister."
Lei Jingxiao's anger surged at this moment: "Xiao Yan, isn't your greatest asset this little girl? I'll defeat her and show you!"
Upon hearing Lei Jingxiao's challenge, Qinglin also looked at Xiao Yan, clearly awaiting his opinion. Lei Jingxiao was someone left behind by Jiang Yunyan, who had saved Little Fairy Doctor's life. Although she wanted to teach Lei Jingxiao a lesson, she didn't act rashly without permission.
Xiao Yan nodded and smiled, "Go ahead and attack, but be careful not to hurt anyone!"
Qing Lin smiled wryly. In her heart, Lei Jingxiao's direct confrontation with Xiao Yan was already extremely wrong! The young master himself didn't care because he had a good temper, but she couldn't tolerate it at all.
Meanwhile, upon hearing Xiao Yan's instructions, Lei Jingxiao's anger flared even more. His normally concealed lightning-attribute Dou Qi erupted instantly, propelling him into the sky. Wielding two golden spears, one long and one short, he declared, "Come on, let's see just how ordinary my strength really is!"
Xiao Yan shook his head and smiled as he looked at the two figures in the sky. Little Fairy Doctor, standing beside him, also smiled knowingly: "Why did you provoke him like that? Now he's going to suffer!"
Xiao Yan's smile faded slightly: "After all, Senior Jiang asked us to bring him along, so he must have intended for us to teach him something. Besides, this kid is fearless now; if we don't put him in a good position, won't he cause even more trouble later?"
Lei Jingxiao also reminded Xiao Yan of Zi Yan. The main reason Zi Yan was initially willing to follow orders was because Xiao Yan held the lifeline of elixirs. Lei Jingxiao was clearly a warlike person, so Xiao Yan would naturally target what he cared about. In any case, Jiang Yunyan had saved Little Fairy Doctor's life and promised to take care of Lei Jingxiao, so Xiao Yan would definitely fulfill his promise.
As for the outcome of this battle, Xiao Yan wasn't worried at all. Qing Lin had already broken through again to reach the Seven-Star Dou Zun level, making him stronger than Lei Jingxiao. Furthermore, Qing Lin had the powerful Ming Mei, a peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng, as her teacher. It wouldn't be an exaggeration for Qing Lin to say he was invincible among his peers!
"Then I'll take over later!" Little Fairy Doctor gently moved her wrist, her eyes showing a hint of eagerness.
After her Calamity Poison Body was controlled, she rose three stars, reaching the five-star Dou Zun level. If she had directly fought Lei Jingxiao from the start, she wouldn't have been guaranteed a victory. However, Qing Lin had already made her move, so Little Fairy Doctor, having waited in comfort, naturally had no problem!
Xiao Yan gently squeezed Little Fairy Doctor's hand: "Your Calamity Poison Body has just been brought under control, so don't push yourself too hard later, be careful."
Little Fairy Doctor smiled sweetly. Having just gained control of her Calamity Poison Body, she naturally needed an opponent. The incredibly arrogant Lei Jingxiao was a perfect match, especially since he had just been yelling at Xiao Yan!
The battle between Lei Jingxiao and Qing Lin was indeed quite powerful; the magical beasts in the mountains trembled in fear from the aftershocks. The sparring session ended with Lei Jingxiao being frozen into an ice sculpture by the cold air and falling awkwardly from the sky.
Relying on his powerful foundation, Lei Jingxiao broke free of the ice in no time. However, once outside, his eyes were filled with apprehension as he looked at Qing Lin. In his eyes, this woman, who resembled Xiao Yan's personal maid, was far too terrifying to fight!
He was incredibly powerful, possessed impeccable judgment, and employed a multitude of unpredictable and cunning methods. Especially in the end, he had originally intended to use a Heaven-Rank combat technique to decide the outcome, but unexpectedly, a flash of blue light appeared in Qing Lin's eyes, and he instantly lost consciousness. When he regained consciousness, a chilling aura assaulted his senses; he had been frozen into an ice sculpture by Qing Lin.
"The aura of the Nine Netherworld Python... are you a magical beast?" Lei Jingxiao asked Qing Lin.
At this moment, Qinglin let out a soft snort and did not respond to Lei Jingxiao's words, clearly still very dissatisfied with Lei Jingxiao!
On the other side, the little fairy doctor in the white dress calmly said to Lei Jingxiao, "Young Master Lei, how about we give it a try next?"
