Starting as a supporting character in Doupo

Page 197

After all, within the inner courtyard, only the Golden and Silver Elders could stop Su Qiandouzong. If Su Qiandouzong were left unattended, the group from the Black Corner Region might truly never return.

The two elders, Jin and Yin, who had originally planned to slip away, noticed Su Qian looking at them after Yuan Yi finished speaking. They cursed Yuan Yi in their hearts, but had no choice but to meet Su Qian's gaze.

However, when they realized that You Ruo had no intention of interfering in the fight between the two, their anxiety gradually subsided.

If it were just Su Qian alone, they were confident they could stall for time.

"Alright! In that case, Su Qian, let the two of us experience your skills."

As soon as they finished speaking, the two elders, Jin and Yin, exchanged a glance. The battle qi within their bodies gradually formed a cycle, circulating back and forth between the two. Their strength as peak Douhuang also increased slightly, and then they attacked Su Qian.

"Humph!"

Seeing the actions of the two elders, Jin and Yin, Su Qian's anger had not subsided.

"Do you really think you can stop me by relying on secret techniques?"

So many times, the battles with the Black Corner Region were caused by the interference of the Gold and Silver Elders, which led to Su Qian being held back, and he became increasingly angry.

Now facing the Gold and Silver Elders again, his aura became even more terrifying. With Han Feng dead, all his worries disappeared, and his momentum gradually increased as he charged towards the Gold and Silver Elders.

This caused great distress to the two elders, Jin and Yin. They were only able to hold off Su Qian by relying on secret techniques, but that was merely a delaying tactic. If they could have truly defeated him, none of this would have led to so many complications.

Facing the enraged Su Qian, he felt increasingly uncomfortable.

Meanwhile, seeing Su Qian fighting with the two elders, Xiao Fan did not intervene. After all, his current true strength was only that of a four-star Dou Huang, and the boost from the Nine Transformations of the Radiant Sun was about to disappear.

At this moment, with no other major enemies, there was naturally no need to use any desperate trump cards. Against the two elders at their peak, they were still somewhat lacking.

Finally, Xiao Fan looked at the group from the Black Corner Region and discovered someone who had been overlooked by everyone.

King of Spotted Creatures!

After Han Feng's death, Ban Huang had quietly hidden behind the crowd. Since he had no deep-seated hatred for Canaan Academy, he quietly retreated to the edge of the battlefield when no one was paying attention.

"Heh, isn't this just a gift delivered to our doorstep...?"

Seeing the Banhuang about to disappear from the battlefield, Xiao Fan's lips curled up, his battle qi wings flapped, and he chased after the Banhuang in the direction it had gone.

You Ruo watched Xiao Fan leave into the distance, paying no attention to the battle on the battlefield. Her whole body twisted and she disappeared into the sky.

"teacher......"

Xiao Yan watched Xiao Fan chasing after the Banhuang and walked away, his tone tinged with envy, and silently asked Yao Lao in his heart.

Since Han Feng was killed by his senior brother, Yao Lao has been unusually silent.

Having learned about the situation between Han Feng and Yao Lao, Xiao Yan could also sense the sadness in Yao Lao's heart.

After all, he had once regarded Han Feng as his closest person, but he never expected that the other party would collude with the Soul Palace and attempt to kill his master.

But witnessing Han Feng's death firsthand must have been incredibly painful for Yao Lao...

"Hehe, I'm fine..."

There was a hint of weariness in the old doctor's voice.

Just as Xiao Yan had thought, although Yao Lao had already regarded Han Feng as his mortal enemy, he felt a slight, almost imperceptible heartache as he watched Han Feng, whom he had raised from infancy to become the dominant figure in the region, die. In addition to the sense of relief, he also felt a slight, imperceptible heartache.

"Don't worry, little one, I'm not that fragile."

Seemingly noticing Xiao Yan's concerns, Yao Lao chuckled and then said, "Alright, your senior brother going after that fifth-grade alchemist should go without any surprises."

"Now that Han Feng and the Soul Hall Protector Sha's souls are in our hands, we can rely on them to gather some information about the Soul Hall. This is quite a gain."

Yao Lao's voice gradually returned to normal as he calmly analyzed the situation and spoke to Xiao Yan.

"As for you, although your strength has improved quite quickly, there's still a considerable gap compared to your senior brother..."

"what......"

Upon hearing Yao Lao mention his strength, Xiao Yan sighed and said dejectedly, "Teacher, there's nothing I can do. You know, there are very few prodigies like Senior Brother. Compared to others, my strength has already improved a lot..."

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Yao Lao was speechless. To be fair, it was indeed extremely rare for Xiao Yan to achieve his current level of success in such a short time. However, because of Xiao Fan's existence, Yao Lao's expectations were much higher.

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, he could only sigh helplessly.

……

On the other side, just as Ban Huang left the battlefield, he noticed Xiao Fan following behind him. Despite the aura of a four-star Dou Huang emanating from Xiao Fan, Ban Huang felt no worry whatsoever.

However, Han Feng was dead, and he could no longer get what he wanted. Not wanting to get involved in the conflict between the Black Corner Region and Canaan Academy, he simply ran away.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Fan actually chased after them.

Relying on his strength as a Seven-Star Dou Huang, Ban Huang was not too afraid of Xiao Fan. Judging from the aura of the other party after falling back, the secret technique he used to enhance his strength had certain limitations and could not be used indefinitely.

Of course, besides that, the mysterious Dou Zong's revelation of Xiao Fan's identity as a disciple of the Medicine Venerable was also what attracted the Spotted Emperor.

"Boy, I have no grudge against Canaan Academy. Although I was invited by Han Feng to join the Black Alliance, I did not harm anyone. Why are you being so aggressive?"

Suspended in mid-air, the Spotted Emperor turned back to look at Xiao Fan and asked in a tone devoid of joy or sorrow.

"Hehe, I am Xiao Fan. I have met Senior Banhuang."

Xiao Fan saw the Banhuang stop and halted his figure not far in front of him. He then performed a gesture of respect in mid-air and spoke calmly.

"I came here to pursue Senior Banhuang not for revenge, but to make a deal with him."

"trade?"

The Ban Emperor looked at Xiao Fan, and was puzzled by his words.

They had only met for the first time, so he wondered what kind of deal Xiao Fan wanted to discuss with him.

"What kind of transaction are you referring to?"

Banhuang, suppressing his impatience, asked Xiao Fan.

"We've only just met, how can you be so sure there's a possibility of a deal between us?"

Hearing Banhuang's words, Xiao Fan did not hesitate and went straight to the point, saying, "I wonder what the conditions were when Han Feng invited you to join the Black Alliance?"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, Ban Huang's heart skipped a beat, and a hint of barely perceptible joy rose within him. He then said solemnly, "Back then, Han Feng invited me to join the Black Alliance with the notes left by his teacher, Venerable Medicine. However, before I could obtain them, he was killed by you."

At this point, the Ban Emperor looked at Xiao Fan with a renewed sense of hope.

After all, he had been stuck at the peak of the fifth-grade alchemist for many years, and he had already spent countless efforts to break through to the sixth-grade alchemist. Otherwise, he would not have accepted Han Feng's invitation so easily.

Chapter 291 Accident

"Haha, that's it."

Xiao Fan looked at the Ban Emperor, not surprised by his choice.

After all, as an alchemist, the alchemy notes of the former number one alchemist on the Dou Qi Continent were an unparalleled temptation.

Perhaps he could glean some insights from this and improve his alchemy skills. This is one of the reasons why Han Feng was able to attract the Spotted Emperor.

"I believe you heard what Protector Sha of the Soul Palace said before."

Xiao Fan looked up at the Ban Emperor, a faint smile on his lips. He was confident the other knew what he was talking about. After all, Protector Sha's voice had been so loud, and he was the center of attention; probably very few people wouldn't have been unaware of it.

"You mean..."

The Ban Emperor looked at Xiao Fan, his voice trembling slightly, with a hint of disbelief.

"Let me introduce myself. I am Xiao Fan, a four-star Dou Huang, and also a fifth-grade alchemist. My master is the Medicine Venerable."

As Xiao Fan finished speaking, the Banhuang's breathing quickened. He took a deep breath to suppress his shock and slowly asked, "So what you mean is..."

"What Han Feng can offer you, I can offer too. It's just my teacher's alchemy notes. If you're willing, I can give you a lot more."

Xiao Fan spoke to the Ban Emperor with a faint smile on his lips.

"So... what are your conditions?"

The Emperor was not blinded by the sudden benefits. After all, he knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch. Since Xiao Fan had offered benefits that he would not refuse, the conditions that needed to be met would not be simple.

"Well..."

Xiao Fan looked at the Mad King opposite him and slowly stated his conditions. The Mad King, hearing that Xiao Fan's request was so simple, agreed to Xiao Fan's conditions and finally reached a deal with Xiao Fan.

After reaching an agreement with the Mad King, Xiao Fan was in an extremely pleasant mood. In fact, Xiao Fan's move against the Mad King was merely a casual one, based on the latter's skill level.

After all, whether the other party is a Seven-Star Dou Huang or a Fifth-Rank Alchemist, they will be of great use to Xiao Fan. More importantly, the conditions that need to be paid are insignificant to Xiao Fan.

……

By the time Xiao Fan returned to the battlefield with the Spotted Emperor, the battle between Canaan Academy and Black Corner Region had almost come to an end.

The disciples of the Earth Flame Sect and the Eight Doors were almost completely wiped out by the siege of Canaan Academy, Rakshasa Sect, and Mad Lion Gang. Those who survived were mostly weak and miserable.

The sect leader of the Earth Flame Sect, Yan, was killed shortly after the battle by Tie Wu, Su Mei, and a group of elders from Canaan Academy.

The death of the sect leader directly led to a significant decrease in the morale of the Earth Flame Sect disciples, who almost lost the will to resist, which also increased the pressure on the Eight Doors.

Meanwhile, the two elders, Jin and Yin, were gradually unable to hold on under the attacks of Elder Su Qian.

When Yan died, Yin was momentarily distracted, and Su Qian seized the opportunity to strike him with a palm, causing his entire aura to dissipate. If Jin hadn't come to his rescue in time, he probably would have been killed by Elder Su Qian.

However, the two are now increasingly outmatched and have already shown signs of decline; it's only a matter of time before they lose.

When Xiao Fan and Ban Huang returned, they happened to encounter Su Mei and her group besieging Yuan Yi.

Yuan Yi truly lived up to his reputation as a powerful figure who had dominated the Black Corner Region for many years. Even under the siege of the crowd, he still managed to hold out for so long.
