I am a mortal who has achieved enlightenment through burning my secrets

Chapter 335 Little Medical Fairy

Opening her eyes, Xiao Xun'er found herself in a familiar yet unfamiliar place, immersed in a warm medicinal bath.

She raised her hand and touched her stomach, which had calmed down; the contents must have been squeezed out.

Wow!

Xiao Xun'er suddenly sat up in the bathtub, and the loud noise attracted the attention of a figure next to the alchemy furnace.

Xiao Wuji looked at Xiao Xun'er, who had just woken up, and said with a sneer, "Oh~ you're awake. Now that you're awake, leave."

"If I had known, I shouldn't have brought you back. With so many people seeing you, everyone will think I did something to you."

"When you get back, remember to explain to everyone that you got into that situation while playing in the stables, and it has nothing to do with me!"

"If you can't explain it clearly, I'll go out and explain it for you myself. Otherwise, not only will it ruin my reputation, but if it gets back to Xiao Yan's ears one day, he'll be determined to fight me to the death!"

The mere mention of Xiao Yan sent Xiao Xun'er into a frenzy; she absolutely refused to allow Xiao Yan to discover what had happened to her.

Pfft!
Xiao Xun'er jumped out of the bathtub, then knelt on the ground, moved to Xiao Wuji's feet on her knees, and kowtowed, saying, "I hope the elder can keep this a secret! Please, please don't let Brother Xiao Yan know."

"I didn't realize you had such deep feelings for him."

Xiao Wuji gave a wicked smile and spread his legs, saying, "If you want me to keep this a secret, you'd better show me your sincerity first!"

The battle-hardened Xiao Xun'er instantly understood, and immediately bowed her head and swallowed the whale.

……

After Xiao Xun'er finished eating, Xiao Wuji also showed a satisfied smile. He had given Xiao Xun'er many tasks to help her develop this skill.

After finishing, Xiao Wuji casually tossed her a magical garment. He had refined this garment, which could transform into any shape he desired.

"You can wear this from now on; it won't get dirty."

"Furthermore, I'll make sure everyone keeps this a secret. From now on, you'll work as a cleaning maid here!"

"Yes!"

Having eaten and drunk her fill, Xiao Xun'er raised her hands above her head and caught the robe. Without the slightest doubt, she put it on as if this thing, which had never appeared on the Dou Qi Continent before, was something very common.

"Alright, get lost. Remember to come and report in every day from now on!"

"Yes!"

……

After leaving Xiao Wuji's courtyard, Xiao Xun'er became suspicious and paranoid. She saw everyone as someone who had come after she took the medicine that night, and everyone as someone who knew her secret. Everyone's every move seemed suspicious to her.

Back in her own courtyard, Xiao Xun'er finally breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, a figure appeared silently in front of her, almost startling her.

Ling Ying respectfully presented a magic core and said, "Miss, I have found the magic core you asked me to find!"

Although Xiao Xun'er was annoyed that Ling Ying had come at such an inopportune time, she still reached out and took the magic core, since it was something she had previously instructed Ling Ying to do.

Then, remembering the reward for completing the task, Xiao Xun'er immediately gave the following instructions:
"Go, go see how Brother Xiao Yan is doing..."

……

Warcraft Forest!

Qinglin nestled into Xiao Wuji's arms, sniffed, and a look of confusion appeared in her eyes.

"Young Master was gone for a day. Did he go to see another woman? It doesn't smell like Medusa's scent."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wuji ruffled her hair in an annoyed tone and said, "What? Little Qinglin wants to be my housekeeper?"

Qinglin shook her head and said, "I just don't want Young Master to play around with those filthy women. Actually, if Young Master is really lonely, I, I also... Ah!" Xiao Wuji flicked her forehead in annoyance and said, "What are you thinking? I just went back to get revenge! Although the person wasn't exactly clean, it was me who dirtied them!"

Qinglin, who aspires to be Xiao Wuji's personal maid forever, never shies away from these topics. She even secretly observes and learns from Xiao Wuji's physical fight with Medusa.

After a moment of tenderness, Xiao Wuji released his arm from Qinglin and said, "Alright, let me see how your fighting skills are progressing?"

Upon hearing this, Qinglin also summoned the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, which condensed into two pale white longswords in his hands.

Xiao Wuji was proficient in all eighteen weapons, but his best weapon was the sword. Therefore, the fighting technique he taught Qinglin was also swordsmanship, and it was a Heaven-rank sword technique he obtained from the Desolate Era world called "Melting Snow Sword Technique".

This sword technique is a fusion of the Snow and Fire paths, directly targeting the Dao domains of the Flying Snow Path and the Blazing Fire Path, and is extremely similar to the Great Dao Laws within the Bone Spirit Cold Fire.

Most importantly, this sword technique was created by a female immortal. When executed, it's as graceful as a snow fairy, yet it's also imbued with passion. Therefore, Qinglin should no longer resort to such seemingly violent methods in future battles!

With each swing of the longsword, specks of bone-spirited cold fire condensed into snowflakes, as if a blizzard had suddenly begun, and Qinglin became a dancer in the snow. Beautiful, yet filled with endless killing intent.

……

In the days that followed, Xiao Wuji spent his days either deducing cultivation methods or teaching Qinglin combat techniques. Occasionally, he would return to the Xiao family and feed Xiao Xun'er a whole whale.

Xiao Yan arrived in Qingshan Town as originally planned and joined the hunting party. Later that night, he secretly followed Xiao Yixian when she went out, but was then discovered by the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.

This time, however, Xiao Wuji couldn't let Xiao Yan share the joys and sorrows with her! The hero saving the beauty trope may be old-fashioned, but it's certainly the most popular.

Seeing Xiao Yan abandon her and flee in haste, Little Fairy Doctor did not feel despair. She simply raised her hand and scattered a lot of poison to open a path to survival for herself. Later, she whistled at the edge of the cliff and summoned a blue eagle.

However, before the blue eagle could fly far, several arrows landed on its belly.

"Xiao Lan!"

Although the blue eagle was not shot dead, it was seriously injured, and as it continued to flap its wings, the wound on its abdomen was gradually pulled open.

Halfway through the flight, the blue eagle abruptly stopped flapping its wings, and both the eagle and its rider plummeted straight down.

"what!!"

Little Fairy Doctor clung tightly to the feathers on Blue Eagle's back. Although she and Blue Eagle were friends, Blue Eagle might not die from falling at this height, but if she didn't find someone to take her down with her, she would definitely die a horrible death.

However, to her surprise, the feathers were so fragile that she managed to pluck them off, and they both began to fall freely.

boom!
Contrary to expectations, I wasn't smashed into a pulp, nor was I impaled through the chest by a tree branch. Instead, I landed gently in a warm embrace.

Their eyes met, and before Little Fairy Doctor could marvel at her good fortune, she heard the man say, "What amazing luck! I've come all the way to the Monster Forest, and yet a beautiful woman is throwing herself at me!"

Little Fairy Doctor shouted and argued, "Who, who threw themselves at you? I just happened to fall from the sky!"

"That's why I said I'm lucky!" Xiao Wuji put Little Fairy Doctor on the ground, then said solemnly, "Since you went through all that trouble to chase me here and throw yourself into my arms, I'll grant you permission to be my personal maid!"

"You awful guy, are you even listening to me?" Little Fairy Doctor rarely lost her composure like this, but every word this man said made her furious.

Xiao Wuji completely ignored Little Fairy Doctor's attitude, turned his head and looked at the blue eagle hanging on the tree branch not far away. He rubbed his hands together and said excitedly, "Hey, ingredients are actually falling from the sky! What great luck!"

"Xiao Lan!"

Only then did Little Fairy Doctor suddenly remember that her good friend was still seriously injured and his life was uncertain.

He stomped on Xiao Wuji's instep, then ran towards the blue eagle in the distance, angrily saying, "Xiao Lan is my friend, not some kind of food!"

Watching Little Fairy Doctor's retreating figure, Xiao Wuji's lips curled into a smile.
