Chapter 181: Jiang Xue's Gratitude, Please Let Me Repay You!

In the midst of the forest, flashes of lightning and eerie blue-green flames shimmered constantly. When Jiang Xue saw Lin Yan emerge from the tent with Jiang Yinyin, she was actually a bit irritated.

After all, the crisis in the area had not yet subsided. And in Jiang Xue's view, neither Lin Yan nor Jiang Yinyin possessed much combat prowess.

Coming out at that moment seemed like putting Jiang Yinyin in danger. But before Jiang Xue could utter a word, lightning began to flicker around Lin Yan's body. His form turned crystalline and transparent, his already imposing stature growing even taller.

Muscles swelled, and the echoes of thunder reverberated. Lin Yan's body instantly moved before two Mist Leopards and Crocodiles Kings.

He struck directly with two fists! Plic, plic, the sound of crimson blood dripping incessantly from the bodies of the two Mist Leopards and Crocodiles Kings resounded. With the drip of blood, the scene fell into complete silence.

But Lin Yan's actions didn't cease there. He extended his hands, and a potent mental force surged wildly from his body.

This mental force instantly transformed into mental needles that continued to puncture the other demon beasts like a fine drizzle. Although this type of attack didn't hold much power against practitioners above the Formation Realm, it was highly effective against demon beasts of the Dan Yuan Realm. Before others could react, the mental needles launched by Lin Yan had pierced through all the demon beasts in the vicinity.

One by one, the demon beasts met a miserable end, impaled on the ground or in the trees, with no chance of escape. After confirming with his mental power that no other demon beasts remained, Lin Yan relaxed his stance. The violent energy within his body calmed, and his colossal form returned to normal.

But the people of the Falcon House, who had regained consciousness, were utterly stunned. They gaped in disbelief at the scene before them. When they looked at Lin Yan, it was as if they were staring at a behemoth.

They drew deep breaths, fully expressing their astonishment: "Brother Lin Yan's skills are incredible!"

"He dispatched the Mist Leopards and Crocodiles Kings with just two blows, and wiped out hundreds of Dan Yuan Realm demon beasts in one fell swoop. Shouldn't he be in the Qi Realm?"

"He's truly formidable!" Jiang Xue, too, was left speechless in her spot. The reproachful words she had nearly spoken were swallowed back. She recalled her earlier remarks and suddenly found them ludicrous.

Did a man with the strength Lin Yan had displayed earlier even need protection? He could have handled them all by himself!

"Mr. Lin Yan, thank you for saving us."

"It was Jiang Xue's fault for not recognizing the right person."

Jiang Xue stepped forward honestly, with a contrite expression on her face, and apologized to Lin Yan.

"It's alright. They're just minor incidents, don't worry about it," Lin Yan smiled faintly at Jiang Xue. He gave her a reassuring pat on the shoulder. Then, he hurriedly made his way to Jiang Lei's side. At this moment, Jiang Lei's condition was dire. After all, the two Mist Leopards and Crocodiles Kings still possessed power. Although they were vanquished by Lin Yan in a single stroke.

But it wasn't due to their weakness; it was because Lin Yan was too formidable. Consequently, Jiang Lei, who had borne the brunt of their attack, was teetering on the brink of death. "I truly didn't expect that in the end, it would be you, Brother Lin Yan, who saved us."

 "A hero born from the younger generation." Jiang Lei, too, felt somewhat moved at this moment. He covered his wound, his pallid face turning towards Lin Yan as he spoke. Jiang Xue and Jiang Yinyin rushed to surround him, both in tears at Jiang Lei's condition.

"Dad, don't speak."

"Let's tend to your wounds swiftly." Jiang Lei shook his head:

"Silly girl, don't you understand the state of your father's body?"

 "Dad probably has no chance of recovery."

 With that said, he turned his gaze to Lin Yan.

 "Brother Lin Yan, I'm truly sorry."

"We may need your assistance to safeguard my two daughters in the future." Jiang Yinyin wept sorrowfully. As for Jiang Xue, she turned directly to Lin Yan and knelt down.

"Mr. Lin Yan, please help save my father." "Jiang Xue's earlier foolishness fills her with deep shame."

 "If you can save my father, Jiang Xue will be eternally grateful." With that said, she prepared to kneel before Lin Yan in supplication for aid. Jiang Lei coughed weakly, his face pale. "Xue'er, don't compel Lin Yan to act."

"He's a warrior, not a healer. How could he mend my injury?" But before Jiang Lei could finish speaking, Lin Yan retrieved a pill directly. Then, he promptly popped it into his mouth.

Everyone present was dumbfounded, including Jiang Xue, who stared in disbelief. "Step aside," Lin Yan instructed Jiang Xue. Jiang Xue immediately complied, not daring to delay. Lin Yan swiftly helped Jiang Lei to his feet, then, gathering some elemental energy in his hand, directed it to a specific point on Jiang Lei's back.

Once the pure elemental energy infiltrated, the medicinal effects of the pill within Jiang Lei's body began to activate. Suddenly, he felt a refreshing sensation. Thereafter, under the treatment of the pure medicinal energy, the injuries on Jiang Lei's body began to heal.

Though his complexion gradually improved, albeit not immediately fully recovered, it was evident he had emerged completely from the brink of death.

"Well, that should suffice. Take care for a while, and you should make a full recovery," Lin Yan withdrew his energy, informing Jiang Lei. Jiang Lei, meanwhile, also scrutinized his physical condition carefully, his eyes alight with joy.

"Thank you very much, Brother Lin Yan, for extending a helping hand." Jiang Lei expressed his gratitude with a bow. Meanwhile, Jiang Xue and Jiang Yinyin, overwhelmed by their profound debt of gratitude, nearly knelt again before Lin Yan in gratitude.

"No, no, it's nothing much." "It's just a small effort, there's no need to exaggerate." Lin Yan promptly helped them to their feet. Then, he retrieved several more pills and handed them to the other warriors of the Eagle House, as well as to Jiang Lei, instructing them to take them promptly. This gesture deeply moved everyone once more.

After all, in their view, Lin Yan, a stranger, had rescued them from a mortal predicament, which was already quite extraordinary.

Yet in this circumstance, he had also provided them with numerous healing pills. They understood these items were not inexpensive. Especially the pill that had just saved Jiang Lei from death, it was almost akin to a divine pill in everyone's eyes! Yet Lin Yan didn't even mention it. He didn't seek anything in return.

This left them profoundly grateful. Especially Jiang Xue.

 After experiencing Lin Yan's favor, she felt extremely ashamed upon recalling
