Battle Through the Heavens: I Am the Righteous Path

Chapter 302
"Eh?"

Hearing this familiar voice, Xiao Yan took a closer look and saw a purple-haired girl sitting on the ground in front of him, pressing her skirt tightly, her eyes full of shame and anger, staring at him, her face seemed to be stained with... Layer Hongxia is none other than the girl Xiao Yan met by chance in the hot spring pool yesterday, Feng Qing'er.

Seeing Feng Qing'er pressing her skirt tightly, Xiao Yan was suddenly stunned, and his mind was slightly startled.

Wait, was it just now?
Xiao Yan's face instantly turned red, and without hesitation, he lowered his head to Feng Qing'er.

"terribly sorry!"

Feng Qing'er looked at Xiao Yan who was bowing his head to her, biting her lips tightly, and her shoulders were shaking with anger.

Who knows where the conflict between her and Xiao Yan came. So far, they had only met twice, and each time they ended up in this embarrassing encounter!
And just like yesterday, it was really just an accident. Feng Qing'er didn't know how to speak to Xiao Yan even if she wanted to accuse him.

Suddenly, Feng Qing'er seemed to remember something, and the blush on her face disappeared instantly. She quickly got up, her eyes scanning back and forth among the crowds of people on the street.

In the end, his face turned dark at a speed visible to the naked eye, his jade hands were clenched tightly, and his silver teeth were biting.

Lost it!Big trouble! ! !

Feng Qing'er suddenly turned her head and glared fiercely at Xiao Yan who was getting up. She rushed up and grabbed Xiao Yan's collar tightly while his eyes were blank.

It's all your fault!It's your fault! ! !

Feng Qing'er immediately wanted to yell at Xiao Yan like this.

However, just when the words were about to leave his mouth, they got stuck in his throat.

In the situation just now, no matter what, it was my own problem that was bigger. It was because I was only focused on chasing people and didn't pay attention to Xiao Yan who was around the corner and knocked him to the ground.

Feng Qing'er knew that she was unruly, but she still couldn't do anything unreasonable.

"Humph!"

Feng Qing'er suddenly let go of Xiao Yan's collar, turned sideways and lowered her head slightly, her eyebrows were tightly knitted, her silver teeth kept biting her fingertips, looking very irritable.

Xiao Yan saw the embarrassment on Feng Qing'er's face, and out of apology for offending Feng Qing'er unintentionally, he stepped forward and asked softly.

"Well, are you in any trouble?" Xiao Yan looked at Feng Qing'er, "If you don't mind, I can help you, just think of it as my apology for what happened just now and yesterday."

"."

After hearing Xiao Yan's words, Feng Qing'er was silent for a moment, then turned her head slightly and glanced at Xiao Yan with sincere eyes.

In my heart, I started to get confused.

To be honest, Feng Qing'er's sense of Xiao Yan was really strange.

On the one hand, I can clearly feel that this person is indeed serious, and he took the initiative to help me yesterday. On the other hand, because of Xiao Yan's offense, I have a very bad feeling towards him. These two completely opposite impressions Feng Qing'er herself couldn't figure out whether her attitude towards Xiao Yan was good or bad.

But one thing is certain, that is, Feng Qing'er is genuine and is unwilling to rely on Xiao Yan, a person she has only met for a second time.

There is injustice to repay, and there is revenge to seek revenge. This is Feng Qing'er's consistent concept.

On the other hand, repaying kindness is also Feng Qing'er's insistence.

Feng Qing'er really couldn't accept it when she owed another favor to the same person without repaying the previous one.

But it turns out that there are some things that you don’t have to do just because you can’t accept them.

The balance in Feng Qing'er's heart began to tilt slightly, but she finally gritted her teeth and made a decision.

"I see."

Feng Qing'er turned to face Xiao Yan, pointed at him and said angrily.

"But let me tell you in advance! I don't really want to ask you for help! I really have no choice!"

"I will definitely repay this kindness, including yesterday's kindness!"

Looking at Feng Qing'er, who spoke in an overbearing tone but didn't sound condescending at all, the corners of Xiao Yan's mouth twitched slightly.

Rather than angry, the Feng Qing'er in front of him felt more like she was having trouble?
(Hehe~ Xiao Yanzi, this is a pure tsundere. None of the girls you met before have this kind of character.)
Yao Shen in the ring said with a bad smile, while Xiao Yan pretended not to hear as usual, breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Feng Qing'er and asked.

"So, what happened?"

After hearing Xiao Yan's inquiry, Feng Qing'er's face became more indignant and she began to describe the whole story.

After listening to Feng Qing'er's narration, Xiao Yan's face was filled with confusion.

In short, the Najie that Feng Qing'er carried with her, containing all her property, was stolen by a child who didn't even have fighting spirit.

Why can such an important thing be stolen by a child?Moreover, Feng Qing'er herself is still a fighting spirit.

Xiao Yan was speechless and caressed his forehead.

It was true that his money bag was stolen yesterday, but the gold coins in those money bags were not many. Compared with Xiao Yan's property, it was just small change at most. Xiao Yan himself did not pay too much attention to it, even if it was really stolen. It's no big deal.

But Feng Qing'er lost all her belongings!Even if it was robbed by a strong person, such an important thing should not be stolen no matter what, right?

Seeing Xiao Yan's speechless expression, Feng Qing'er naturally guessed what he was thinking. Her face turned red and her cheeks bulged with anger, but she couldn't say a word.

you do not say?She was at the peak of Dou Ling, but a child had her Na Ring containing all her property stolen. No matter what excuse she made, she couldn't justify it.

In fact, Feng Qing'er noticed the ring was stolen the moment it was stolen. However, because there were too many people and the child was small, he got into the crowd in an instant, making it very difficult for Feng Qing'er to lock and chase him. , but ended up falling down with Xiao Yan halfway, causing Feng Qing'er to completely lose track.

Feng Qing'er couldn't just clear out irrelevant pedestrians indiscriminately just to catch a thief, right?
Let's not talk about those who can't live with conscience. Who knows if there is anyone among the pedestrians who cannot be offended. Even if there is not, it is a question whether Feng Qing'er can survive after provoking the anger of the crowd, let alone recover Najie.

Fortunately, there is a restriction on her ring, at least the money in it cannot be withdrawn within a short period of time, otherwise Feng Qing'er would really be mad.

"If it were in an open area, I would never let him run away!"

Feng Qing'er held it in for a long time, and finally could only say this to save a little bit of her dignity.

Although her dignity had disappeared without a trace when the ring was successfully stolen by a child.

In response, Xiao Yan just shrugged helplessly. He also knew that Feng Qing'er was trying her best to save her respect, and Xiao Yan was not someone who would laugh at others.

If this were the little medical fairy, what he said would definitely make Feng Qing'er's lungs explode with anger.

Immediately, Xiao Yan crossed his arms slightly and frowned.

After a long time, he asked in a low voice.

"That kid, why did you steal the ring?"

"what?"

Feng Qing'er raised her eyebrows slightly, not understanding what Xiao Yan was talking about, so Xiao Yan continued to explain.

"Think about it, no matter whether there is a restriction or not on it, you need to have fighting spirit to take out the thing inside." Xiao Yan lightly spread a hand and said slowly: "But according to what you just said I mean, that kid has no fighting spirit at all, what can he gain by stealing the ring?"

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Feng Qing'er raised her eyebrows and curled her lips and said, "Just because he doesn't have fighting spirit doesn't mean that others don't have it. Just find one." Feng Qing'er suddenly paused before she finished speaking.

Because she discovered how stupid her words were.

where is this place?
In the Black Corner Territory, where evil people are everywhere and the strong prey on the weak, a child who has no fighting spirit and is reduced to risking his life as a thief, who can he find to help him take out the things in the ring?Why should he guarantee that others would help him instead of killing him and taking away the ring?

Unless, that child wants to die.

Seeing Feng Qing'er react, Xiao Yan continued.

"According to this logic, if we continue to extrapolate, since the child would choose Najie as his target, it means that there should be someone or a group behind him who can take out the contents of Najia."

"."

After listening to Xiao Yan's analysis, Feng Qing'er was silent for a moment, and then frowned slightly.

"So, what does this have to do with finding him?"

"It doesn't matter, but it is very important to me." Xiao Yan said softly, "Even if you don't ask me for help today, I will still take care of this matter."

Saying this, Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness.

Stealing a ring is far more dangerous than stealing money.

If you are caught stealing money, you may still survive.

But if the stolen ring is discovered, it's basically doomed.

No matter who it is, the Najie they carry contains something very important. Even friends rarely touch it, let alone steal it.

In other words, the person who lets the child come out to steal the ring does not care about the child's life or death at all.

This reminded Xiao Yan of a kind of extremely disgusting scum.

"Which direction did you last see the child running in?"

Xiao Yan looked at Feng Qing'er and asked. Feng Qing'er raised her finger and pointed in one direction. Xiao Yan nodded and walked in that direction.

No matter how weak a person is, he will leave a faint trace when he passes through a place.

It is indeed impossible to observe with normal naked eyes, but soul power can.

Xiao Yan frowned slightly and unfolded his soul power. The remaining soul traces were like footprints left on the ground, and Xiao Yan began to distinguish them one by one with concentration.

"This is for adults, this is for women, and this is for the elderly."

Xiao Yan muttered as he walked forward, while Feng Qing'er followed behind with a confused look on her face, not understanding what Xiao Yan was doing.

Finally, after Xiao Yan conducted a careful search, he found a soul imprint that was extremely close to that of a child among the chaotic soul imprints. Not long after, he collided with Feng Qing'er and himself. The time points match.

It should be, this is it.

"found it."

Xiao Yan turned his head and said something to Feng Qing'er, which made Feng Qing'er suddenly stunned.

Found this?
Before Feng Qing'er could react, Xiao Yan started running forward. Only then did Feng Qing'er come back to her senses. Although her mind was full of doubts, she still hurriedly followed.

A few minutes later, Feng Qing'er followed Xiao Yan and ran into a quiet and dark alley. Although the alley was not narrow, the damp smell that was exuded all the time made Feng Qing'er raise her nose.

At this time, Xiao Yan in front also slowed down and walked slowly towards the depths of the alley. Feng Qing'er followed behind, looking around the gloomy environment with beautiful eyes.

After a few minutes, when Feng Qing'er finally couldn't help but ask, an angry shout suddenly sounded in the alley.

"Trash! You just stole a Nai Ring, and you dare to ask me for money?!"

Hearing this angry voice, Xiao Yan's eyes froze and he walked faster. He walked to a fork in front and looked around. He saw a fierce-looking man sitting on the trash can with one leg crossed, followed by others. Three men with sarcastic smiles on their faces.

In front of them, a boy of about eleven or twelve years old was sitting awkwardly against the wall, one side of his face was red and swollen, his eyes were filled with a brilliance that could not be concealed in this dark alley, and his expression was unyielding. color.

Seeing the boy, Feng Qing'er's eyes suddenly froze.

it's him!The boy who stole his ring!

Feng Qing'er looked sulky and was about to stand up, but was stopped by Xiao Yan's hand.

"Wait a minute."

Xiao Yan whispered, his eyes still staring there without moving even an inch.

Although Feng Qing'er was also confused, it was Xiao Yan who brought him here after all, and Feng Qing'er was embarrassed to go against his wishes.

Anyway, the person has been found, and he will never be lost this time. Just wait.

Thinking like this, Feng Qing'er and Xiao Yan looked there quietly.

"As long as you give me the money, I will give you the ring." The boy looked at the man sitting on the trash can without fear and said word by word: "This is what we agreed."

"Promise? Who do you think you are? Do you dare to mention a promise to me?"

The man looked ferocious, jumped down from the trash can, squatted down and grabbed the boy's collar.

"Don't forget who saved your life when you and your sister were about to starve to death. Don't be so shameless!"

"Oh, it's just a few moldy steamed buns. Do you really want us to be your dogs?" The boy sneered, not at all afraid of the threat from the man in front of him, "I told you, give me the money. I’ll give it to you if I accept it.”

"Anyway, I already hid Najie before I came here. Even if you search all over my body, you won't be able to find it."

"If you don't have the money, it's absolutely impossible for Najie to give it to you."

The boy stared closely at the man in front of him, his teeth grinding in a manly manner, and his lungs were almost exploding with anger.

The dog he has owned for two years actually dares to bark at him? !
"I'm here to make your memory long!!!"

The man raised his fist at the boy in embarrassment. Seeing this, the boy showed no fear in his eyes. His face did not change and he still stared at the man.

It's not that he is not afraid of pain, but that he really needs money now.

He couldn't guarantee that this man would fulfill his promise after getting the ring, so no matter how badly he was beaten, he would never let go.

However, when the man's fist was about to hit the boy, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side and grasped his fist firmly.

This sudden scene shocked everyone present. The boy turned his head in shock and looked at the uninvited guest standing behind the man.

That was none other than Xiao Yan, whose face was extremely cold.
