Battle Through the Heavens: I had no intention of getting involved, but a yandere beauty stuck to my

Hearing Xiao's slightly helpless tone, Xiao Miao could only smile helplessly.

"Oh, right, this is a dual-type fire, it's another fire I discovered."

Xiao Miao took the jade bottle handed to him by Xiao and probed it with his soul. He was shocked to find that it was exactly the same as the Xuanhuang Flame Seed he had previously taken.

"Is this what they mean by one fire with two species?"

"That's right. When this strange fire was born, it was divided into two seeds. One was in the heart of the fire lotus, and the other grew on the base of the fire lotus. However, the energy of the two was shared equally. Otherwise, why did you only increase your cultivation to the seventh star? Otherwise, you could have reached the Dou Huang level in this world at least."

As Xiao Miao listened to the flute explaining the situation, he suddenly realized how fortunate he was to have it.

"What do you plan to do with this? I've set up an array here, enough for you to consume it again. If you do it again, you should be able to break through to the Dou Huang level."

Xiao Miao was tempted by Xiao's suggestion, but after thinking about it, she shook her head.

"Let's keep it for now. Perhaps we can give it to someone else in exchange for the Yin-essence item you mentioned."

As Xiao Miao spoke, he transformed into the refined Xuanhuang Flame. Its appearance remained unchanged, but its interior had long since become nothingness.

Xiao Miao looked at the flame in his hand, which emitted an extremely scorching heat, yet it could not harm him in the slightest. On the contrary, it could change at any time according to Xiao Miao's mood.

"Fine, anyway, I've put a barrier on this bottle. Unless you input your battle qi, no one can force it open."

As Xiao spoke, he waved his hand in a magic seal, and soon the imperceptible barrier around him vanished.

"Little guy, let me remind you, cultivation level alone is not enough. Prodigies will inevitably fight against opponents of higher levels. Be careful, or you might get hammered to the ground one day."

Xiao Miao was also helpless when he heard this. It wasn't that he didn't understand the principle, but in the past he had only confronted the inner disciples, whose realms were far lower than his, so it was impossible to hone his skills. Fortunately, he was out now and could hone his combat skills.

"Since that's the case, I'll go back to sleep. I've placed a mark on your hand and channeled my battle qi into it, which should wake me up. I'll be going now."

Upon hearing Xiao's words, Xiao Miao noticed a strange mark on his left palm, which looked somewhat like a heart.

What is this? Is it some kind of twisted sense of humor?

Xiao Miao ignored it and returned to the ground the way he came, then spread his wings and rushed away.

As his cultivation level increased, Xiao Miao's flight speed also became faster and faster.

Inside a room in the Xiao family's residence at this time.

"Elder Ling, please transfer some people from the family, just enough to reach the Dou Zong level. I refuse to believe that we can search the entire Northwest Continent and still not find a trace of a single person."

Xiao Xun'er's face was gloomy as she spoke to Ling Ying, who was kneeling behind her.

Since the letter from the Yunlan Sect arrived at the Xiao family a few days ago, Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yan have been feeling uneasy. Under Xiao Xun'er's persistent pestering, Xiao Yan had no choice but to reveal the news.

It was as if a bolt from the blue had struck his heart.

In the past few days, the utensils in Xiao Xun'er's room have been replaced batch after batch, all of them broken by her.

"Why did you get lost when you went to the Yunlan Sect to become an apprentice? After you arrived, investigate the Yunlan Sect thoroughly."

Xiao Xun'er felt flustered as she thought about the current situation. If she had known that her father had sent it over that day, she would have asked him for more guards.

Xiao Xun'er grew increasingly frightened, fearing that it would die before she could find it.

Seeing her young mistress constantly throwing a tantrum, Ling Ying felt helpless and had no choice but to explain the situation to the contact person in the family.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yan's room was also filled with sorrow.

Xiao Yan gazed at the pill in his hand, his thoughts drifting into memories.

Two days ago.

"Father, what do you want with me?"

As Xiao Yan pushed open the door, he saw Xiao Zhan sitting in his seat with a worried expression and a hint of concern on his face.

"Father, has something bad happened?"

Upon seeing this scene, Xiao Yan immediately asked.

Xiao Zhan nodded solemnly, his voice trembling slightly as he spoke.

"Xiao Xiao Miao, he went missing from the Yunlan Sect. He was kidnapped while the Sect Master was away."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan stared blankly, still unable to react.

The atmosphere immediately froze.

Seeing Xiao Zhan's appearance, Xiao Yan knew the situation was bad and didn't know what to say. The father and son remained silent.

"Yan'er, the Xiao family has already sent people to search for him. Xiao Miao is a lucky person and will definitely be alright."

Xiao Yan emerged from the room with a worried expression, and a sense of unease in his heart. Why had he disappeared at the Yunlan Sect?

These past few days, I haven't been able to concentrate on my cultivation, so I had to put aside my distress for the time being and focus on my practice.

"All I can do now is cultivate, but this damned battle qi keeps disappearing inexplicably. I can only watch helplessly as my younger brother goes missing, and there's nothing I can do about it."

At this moment, Xiao Yan was filled with resentment towards his own cultivation level. Even when he was ridiculed before, he was not as angry as he was now.

"Sigh, I'm afraid Xun'er is also feeling bad. I hope Xiaomiao can come back soon."

Xiao Yan thought of the beautiful figure whose eyes were full of Xiao Miao, but considering that his younger brother seemed unaware of his feelings, he could only smile bitterly.

Please support us, family members, and let's have a bite to eat.

Chapter 22 Battle

"Is the old man any good?"

Xiao Miao, wearing a white fox mask, looked at the snake-man elder flying in the sky opposite him.

"What is the origin of these despicable humans?"

Three hours ago.

"Now that my strength has increased significantly, it's time to hone my combat skills, lest Xiao laugh at me later."

"This area is all desert; this must be the Tagor Desert."

Xiao Miao flew through the air, talking to himself.

Suddenly, a wisp of poisonous fighting energy attacked Xiao Miao.

Sensing the attack coming from behind, Xiao Miao slightly shifted his body to dodge it.

The newcomer was an old man with a sinister appearance, at least that's what Xiao Miao thought.

Slowly lowering my gaze, I noticed that the old man's lower body was not like human legs, but rather a snake's tail.

"Are you a snake-person?"

Xiao Miao narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the old man who had attacked him, speaking slowly.

"Nonsense, judging from your attire, you should be from the Gama Empire. Why have you trespassed into the territory of my Snake-People race?"

"Your territory?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Miao looked down and saw that there were indeed many snake-man soldiers holding weapons and on guard, looking at him from above with wary expressions.

"I'm so sorry, sir. I meant no harm. I was simply not looking where I was going. If you're not happy about this, I'll head back now."

Upon learning that he had accidentally trespassed on someone else's territory, Xiao Miao apologized and then prepared to leave.

"Does Your Excellency truly believe that I, a member of the snake-people, can come and go as you please?"

Looking at the other party's posture, Xiao Miao was unsure what they wanted to do.

Could it be?

Are you planning to rob and extort money?

But all he has left are second-grade recovery pills.

"This is all I have left."

Xiao Miao was thinking of spending money to avert disaster, since he had broken into the tribe first, it would be good to avoid some conflict.

The old man glanced at the jade bottle that Xiao Miao had thrown over and couldn't help but stare at it intently.

A second-grade elixir, the Qi-restoring Pill!

"You're playing me, aren't you? Humans are indeed treacherous. You're not leaving here today."

If Xiao Miao had given him a fifth-grade pill, the old man might have let him go today. But he threw out a second-grade pill. Does he think that no one in my snake-man tribe can bully me?

Without further hesitation, the old man attacked Xiao Miao directly.

"Old man, don't think I'm afraid of you."

Seeing the poison gas thrown by the old man, Xiao Miao activated the Xuanhuang Flame in his hand.

"Zizzizi."

With a piercing sound, all the poisonous gas that had attacked was burned away, leaving only the Xuanhuang Flame in Xiao Miao's hand burning fiercely.

"This is?"

Although the old man did not use his full strength in this attack, he still used about 50% of his power. Unexpectedly, it was easily blocked by the masked man in front of him.

"Is the old man any good?"

Looking at Xiao Miao, who was asking questions arrogantly, the old man no longer hesitated. Anyone who dared to be arrogant in the Snake-People Clan, even if Jia Xingtian was here, would have to pay the price.
