Chapter 286: The Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group

Stone Desert City.

A handsome young man appeared beneath the towering yellow walls of the city.

He was dressed in a striking second-grade alchemist's robe, standing out amidst the crowd, with seven or eight mercenaries following him.

"Master Xiao Yan, this is Stone Desert City. The leaders Xiao Ding and Xiao Li are both inside the city," one of the mercenaries behind him, a slender and attractive figure, suddenly spoke up.

The woman who spoke seemed to be about twenty years old, with a pretty and delicate face. However, her slightly arched light eyebrows gave off a defiant air, reminiscent of a desert leopardess. Her demeanor suggested that although she was a beautiful desert flower, she was also thorny.

Her bold outfit consisted of a very short top covering just her chest and lower area, and her bronze-toned, slender waist was exposed for all to see. Underneath her short leather skirt, a length of her long, attractive legs was visible. As they walked, several lascivious glances swept over her slender waist and taut legs from the passersby around them.

"Uh-huh!" Xiao Yan smiled and nodded in response to her words.

Having walked towards the Tagor Desert, Xiao Yan had unwittingly rescued a group of mercenaries who turned out to be from his elder brothers' group.

Now, led by this alluring woman, he had finally arrived at Stone Desert City.

Suddenly, the sound of urgent hooves from afar drew the attention of Xiao Yan and his companions.

In Xiao Yan's view, about a dozen formidable mercenaries riding twin-horned horses were charging towards the city gates, causing pedestrians and other mercenaries to swiftly clear the way.

In the center of these dozen mercenaries was an extremely luxurious carriage, adorned with a flag bearing a mysterious purple eagle emblem.

"Xue Lan, who are these people?" Xiao Yan turned to ask the alluring woman beside him, his curiosity piqued.

However, turning to her, he noticed a deep wariness in Xue Lan's eyes as she watched the group of suddenly appearing mercenaries.

Xue Lan, not until the group had entered the city, slightly relaxed and whispered to Xiao Yan, "Young Master Xiao Yan, those were from the Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group."

"Ha ha, the 'Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group', what a strange name!" Xiao Yan burst into laughter, teasingly commenting on the name of the mercenary group.

Hearing Xiao Yan's carefree laughter, Xue Lan's face showed concern as she cautioned, "Master Xiao Yan, you shouldn't talk like that here. If someone with intentions overhears and tells the people from the Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group, it could bring us big trouble."

"Oh, not even allowed to talk about it, are they that powerful?" Xiao Yan's curiosity deepened as he noticed the demeanor of Xue Lan and the others.

"Sigh, it's a long story. Young Master Xiao Yan, let's wait until you meet the leaders Xiao Ding and Xiao Li, and then we can talk about the Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group," Xue Lan sighed softly, her expression melancholic.

"Alright then!"

Seeing that Xue Lan was unwilling to elaborate further, Xiao Yan did not press the issue.

Before long, Xiao Yan and Xue Lan arrived at a large mansion in the southern part of Stone Desert City, which served as the base for the Mo Tie Mercenary Group.

At that moment, Xiao Yan was listening to two young men who bore a strong resemblance to him, frowning deeply as he did.

"Big brother, second brother, are you saying that the Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group has ordered you to leave Stone Desert City within three days?" Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with anger as he asked in a stern voice.

"Yes, today is already the second day. If we haven't left by tomorrow, the people from the Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group will probably take forceful measures," Xiao Li nodded and said.

At this point, Xiao Ding suddenly sighed heavily, "Alas, originally, there were no grudges between our Mo Tie Mercenary Group and the Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group..."

"To think they'd demand that you leave Stone Desert City with no previous quarrels, isn't that a bit too arrogant!" Xiao Yan's eyes glinted coldly as he heard Xiao Ding's words.

Xiao Yan knew that the Mo Tie Mercenary Group was the result of many years of hard work by his elder brothers. If they were to leave Stone Desert City, all their efforts would soon vanish.

"Little brother, there's more to the story," the eldest brother continued.

"It turns out, we were at fault initially. Some time ago, the leader of the Sand Mercenary Group, seeing how quickly the Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group was growing, came to me wanting to form an alliance to drive out the Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group. I agreed at the time for certain reasons," Xiao Ding detailed the events leading up to the situation.

"Why has the alliance between the two mercenary groups led to this situation?" Xiao Yan asked, puzzled.

"Because we underestimated the strength of the leader of the Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group!" Xiao Li interjected.

"What kind of strength does their leader have?"

"At least a Dou Grandmaster and above, because the leader of the Sand Mercenary Group couldn't last a single move against him. With our cultivation at just the Dou Master level, we're not even qualified to confront him."

"A Dou Grandmaster, huh!"

Hearing his brothers' explanations, Xiao Yan roughly understood the whole situation.

Although the Mo Tie Mercenary Group had initially intended harm towards the Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were, after all, Xiao Yan's own brothers.

Almost without hesitation, Xiao Yan decided to help his brothers through this crisis.

In the short term, the only way to resolve the crisis was to restrain the leader of the Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group.

Of course, Xiao Yan alone was not up to this task.

However, with the soul enhancement from Yao Lao, defeating a Dou Grandmaster wouldn't take much effort.

...

"Big brother, second brother, don't be in a rush to move; there might still be a chance," Xiao Yan suddenly said after a moment of silence.

"A chance? What kind of chance?" Xiao Ding looked at him curiously.

"If the leader of the Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group comes tomorrow, just let me handle it," Xiao Yan said, his face wearing a faint smile, full of confidence.

"You handle it?"

"Nonsense, you've just advanced to the Dou Master level. Even we can't defeat you, how are you going to face the leader of the Eldest Brother's Mercenary Group?"

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li thought he was just being a brash youth, so they didn't take it seriously.

"Master, please help me!"

Seeing his brothers' reaction, Xiao Yan suddenly communicated with Yao Lao, who was in his ring.
