After the main character who took the blame retired, the female lead quit.

"Go to sleep……"

"it is good."

After saying her last words for the night, Tie Yanran closed her eyes. Xiao Yu, however, was wide awake, staring blankly at the ceiling in the darkness.

This time, I actually went to sleep.

The two remained silent throughout the night.

Chapter 111, The Gluttonous Diviner

Xiao Yu didn't sleep all night. He got up early and spent the whole day staking out a restaurant in a nearby secret realm, gathering some insider information.

The restaurant was crowded and noisy, but if you listened carefully and focused, you could still hear some secrets coming from the mouths of the people talking. Unfortunately, it was different from when you could hear Li Yunshang holding a funeral to remember Xiao Yu right after leaving Jumo Island.

Xiao Yu spent the whole day waiting but got nothing. Some things you can't find when you deliberately look for them, but they keep bumping into you when you don't care.

However, Xiao Yu also saw something interesting in this.

Inside the restaurant, a group of people with animal ears on their heads and some wild animal-like features got into a conflict with another force.

It is the Myriad Beasts Sect and Yanghua Valley.

The reason was that a disciple of Yanghua Valley couldn't stand the almost monstrous cultivation method of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, which involved wearing beast ears on their heads, and directly mocked them, calling them half-demons and wild beasts.

This aroused the wrath of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.

The techniques practiced by the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect have a long history and are ancient methods. They require the bloodline of demonic beasts to cultivate. They eat raw meat and drink blood to train their bodies and techniques. They are similar to martial artists but have more methods than martial artists and possess bloodline supernatural abilities similar to magic.

Of course, humans are the most intelligent of all beings. If they rashly borrow things that do not belong to them, although their strength will increase greatly, their spirituality will be polluted and their bodies will exhibit the side effect of becoming beastly. At the same time, when they encounter monsters of the same kind and with a stronger bloodline than themselves, they will be suppressed or even used by them.

However, the demons are currently suppressed by the Heavenly Dao and are hiding in a corner, but there is no need to worry too much.

The two sides confronted each other in the restaurant. The members of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect were tall and strong, and their blood energy was surging. In just one exchange, they secretly overwhelmed Yang Huagu, who was practicing fire magic.

The two sides exchanged a few words and a friendly greeting about their respective ancestors, without any major conflict. Clearly, before entering the secret realm, all parties were doing their best to accumulate strength and did not want to waste their energy on such trivial matters.

Just as both sides were preparing to call it quits and exchange harsh words, agreeing to cause trouble again in the secret realm.

A golden figure emerged from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, grabbed the collar of the disciple from Yanghua Valley who was shouting the loudest, and kicked him off the third floor of the restaurant.

The incident happened so suddenly that Huayang Valley hadn't even had time to react before... whoosh!

Several more figures fell down the building. When they came to their senses, they saw that the one who had attacked them was none other than the leading elder from the other side. They were really being bullied. Enraged, they decided to retaliate and attacked the nearby disciples of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.

The Myriad Beasts Sect was not to be outdone. With their own elders taking action and setting a good example, how could they remain indifferent?!

In an instant, the two groups of people started fighting in the restaurant. Xiao Yu huddled in a corner, holding a cup of tea, and watched the whole thing with great interest.

Later, someone stepped in and stopped it immediately. Needless to say, everyone in Huayang Valley ended up with bruises and swelling, suffering a great loss.

After all, the restaurant was cramped, so the martial arts techniques couldn't be used effectively. On the contrary, the physically strong members of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect were able to unleash their skills and fight quite well.

A day passed, and Xiao Yu returned to Tie Yanran's room empty-handed. He was only now beginning to realize what had happened the night before.

As the saying goes, when a woman is angry, you have to coax her.

then……

"What's this?!"

"The gift, cough cough... is something I managed to get during this trip off the island, specially prepared for you, as an apology for what I did before."

After much thought, I couldn't think of anything good to give as a gift. Tie Yanran was young, her cultivation was outstanding, and she had a mysterious backing. She didn't lack any elixirs or magic pills. After thinking it over, the only thing I was missing was that.

So he gave away the things he had bought earlier.

Tie Yanran didn't notice anything unusual about Xiao Yu. She pulled off the stopper of the plain jade bottle, and what came into view were several perfectly round pills, unlike ordinary pills.

Its entire body is white, like a small fish ball, and it exudes a light and elegant fragrance. It certainly looks quite remarkable.

"It's alright. Considering that you prepared something especially for me, I'll let bygones be bygones for what you did to offend me before."

Women have always been strange creatures; they care more about the attitude than the value of the object itself.

Tie Yanran was very happy that Xiao Yu could think of this and was willing to coax her.

"By the way, what kind of pill is this? What does it do...?"

"Uh... Feng... Pah! It has the effects of beautifying the skin, strengthening the body, improving physical fitness, and optimizing deficiencies."

Xiao Yu was cautious. Telling her now that it was a breast enhancement pill would be like reopening her wounds, and he might get a beating for provoking her.

Upon hearing this, Tie Yanran didn't dwell on it too much. She solemnly stuffed the jade bottle that Xiao Yu had given her into her bosom.

She went to bed early again tonight, but unlike usual, in the darkness, Xiao Yu vaguely saw that she seemed to have taken something off and placed it beside her pillow.

The moonlight shone down on the woman's jade-like sleeping face, and Xiao Yu, who inadvertently caught a glimpse of this scene, felt his heart skip a beat for some reason.

Another sleepless night.

the next day.

Because of the fight between the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect and Yanghua Valley, Xiao Yu decided not to go to the restaurant to inquire about the news.

Turning around, he arrived at the inn where he had stayed before. He had been busy participating in the secret realm and hadn't asked Bu Suantian some questions yet, which he needed to clarify before heading into the secret realm.

After knocking, the door was pushed open.

The scene that came into view made Xiao Yu pause, and he couldn't help but ask:

"You were also attacked by people from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect?!"

"Um... Xiao... Ba, what's your background? What did you say?!" ("Um... Xiao... Ba, you're here, what did you say?!")

A mumbled voice rang out, and our little dumpling had lost its usual charm; its fair and tender face had puffed up, and now it truly looked like a steamed bun.

Her once clear and bright eyes were now swollen, as if two ovals had been placed on her face, leaving only two thin slits.

At this moment, she was holding the Golden Silk Dew Cake that Xiao Yu had given her a few days ago, eating it in small bites. Judging from the crumbs that had fallen off, her tongue was probably just as swollen as the ones outside.

As soon as she turned, a sharp hand struck her on the head:

"Don't move, the medicine hasn't been applied yet!"

Xiao Yu looked back and saw the girl in black robes diligently applying light blue ointment to Bu Suantian.

meow~

The adorable Three Flower Goddess lay on the table, her emerald eyes curving upwards, looking at the swollen Bu Suantian with a hint of a smile.

"Your face looks like Ultraman's after just a few days! So swollen, are you poisoned?"

Xiao Yu asked out of curiosity.

Upon hearing this, Bu Suantian immediately spoke excitedly:

"Wild Leopard... Muddy grip, Black Shark Tower falls into the water... Second phase tower is seriously injured... Waaaaah, torn, medicine torn."

(Ye Ba, listen to me! Hei Sha is sleeping naked, and she's poisonous... Waaaaah, she's going to die, she's going to die.)

With his tongue swollen, Bu Suantian's words were muffled and unclear, and Xiao Yu couldn't understand them at all.

Fortunately, the girl in black robes who was applying the medicine nearby provided an explanation in time.

Even though Xiao Yu was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing this.

The reason was simple: Bu Suantian's sleeping posture remained poor and had not changed despite Xiao Yu's departure.

Just last night, she dreamed of a purple-flavored Golden Dew Cake, and driven by her appetite, she took a bite without hesitation.

The girl in black robes was not Xiao Yu; if she took that bite, something bad would happen.

The girl in black robes possesses the purest Five Elements Poison Body, feeding exclusively on poisonous creatures; she can be said to have grown up surrounded by poison since childhood.

Her blood and bodily fluids were already laced with deadly toxins, and even her pores secreted toxins, much like the poison dart frog.

Before reaching the Nascent Soul Realm, the girl in black robes could not control the toxins in her body and could only let them flow freely for the time being.

However, under normal circumstances, there is nothing to worry about. As long as there is no direct contact, the amount of toxins released into the air is negligible, and ordinary people will not be poisoned if they come into contact with it.

Who would have thought that Bu Suantian would use her as a pillow, licking and biting her at the same time? Touching her was fine, but she put her mouth on him!

That would be a bad thing.

At this point, the girl in the black robe clutched her chest, shook her head, and pouted, her mouth peeking out from under her hood, showing utter helplessness at the sudden turn of events.

Chapter 112, The Art of Hide and Seek

Five Elements Poison Body...

Xiao Yu pondered, recalling the Five Poisons Powder reward from the system mission. It seemed to correspond to the black-robed girl, but these things would only be distributed after entering the secret realm.

There were some things that Xiao Yu really coveted, such as the Sword Locking Talisman, but he had to give up on them because he didn't have the necessary conditions.

Xiao Yu casually swiped a piece of Golden Dew Cake from the pastry box that the little glutinous rice ball was holding and stuffed it into his mouth.

Ignoring Bu Suantian, who was wailing because Xiao Yu had taken a piece of her pastry, Xiao Yu left without looking back.

The little rice ball is all swollen up like a steamed bun right now, so some questions have to be put on hold for now and asked again tomorrow.

After leaving the inn, Xiao Yu returned to Tie Yanran's room that afternoon. Just as he was about to knock on the door, Feng Ling, who was waiting for him, pulled him into the room.

In the quiet room, which was as still as in the afternoon, the pretty woman hesitated for a moment, but finally made up her mind to hand something to Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu: ? ? ?

"This is?"

"I'm sending you my wedding invitation. I hope you and Bu Suantian can both attend the wedding."

Feng Ling spoke earnestly, and her expression didn't seem to be feigning it.

"Huh? You invited me and Bu Suantian? Are you sure?!" Xiao Yu felt something was wrong. Why would Feng Ling invite him and Xiao Nuomi Tuanzi when they were complete strangers?

"Well, although we met by chance, we've become friends over the years. More people will make it more lively. Most importantly, most of the people attending the wedding will probably be my father's friends, and I'd like to see a few familiar faces there. Besides, it would be an honor for me to have the renowned fortune teller, Bu Suantian, as a guest at the wedding."

After thinking it over, Xiao Yu didn't refuse. He couldn't let Feng Ling's good intentions go to his head, especially since he had heard that her family was quite wealthy. It wouldn't hurt to go to the wedding and broaden his horizons.

However, looking at Feng Ling, who had delicate features and was as beautiful as a flower, Xiao Yu asked:

"It's only been a few months, is it okay for you to be like this?!"

"Probably. The wedding date is fixed. Given the current situation, I also want to postpone it, but that day is supposedly an auspicious day for my wife and me. In reality, our horoscopes clash, and there is a risk of bad luck if we get married rashly. The next auspicious day will be three years from now, and my wife can't wait three years to get married, so this is the only option."
