Battle Through the Heavens: He marries Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate the marriage!

Chapter 21: A Fragrance Begins! Xiao Yan Arrives!

Little Fairy Doctor was lowering her eyelids and carefully picking medicinal herbs.

Her long, wispy hair fell to her side, and her focused gaze made her look exceptionally beautiful.

But such a simple girl...

Gu Fei closed his eyes. He knew that Little Fairy Doctor possessed the Calamity Poison Body constitution.

At present, Fairy Doctor is unaware of this matter.

The Seven-Colored Poison Scripture she had just acquired contained some descriptions of this constitution.

Once Little Fairy Doctor finishes this matter and reads the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture, she will know about it.

The Calamity Poison Body is something that countless people throughout history have feared, yet many who want to take evil paths yearn for.

Because these people hardly need to cultivate; they can rapidly improve their cultivation level simply by ingesting poison.

However, poison is poison after all.

While one's cultivation level can increase rapidly, it can also damage one's physical body.

Moreover, this process of improving one's cultivation level is filled with pain.

Furthermore, the Calamity Poison Body will erupt at unpredictable times. If a person cannot withstand the attack and becomes its slave, they will lose their mind, go on a killing spree, and eventually lose their life.

Therefore, many people who have been immersed in the body of the Calamity Poison ultimately end up killing their loved ones and then committing a painful suicide.

The Calamity Poison Body chose Little Fairy Doctor; this was Little Fairy Doctor's destiny.

Since her cursed body has not yet been unsealed, it can be assumed that nothing has happened.

Pretend not to have discovered everything that happened today, return to the simple yet happy life in Qingshan Town, and live out the rest of your ordinary life.

Of course, one can also break the seal and face the unknown side driven by the desire for power.

Gu Fei wouldn't interfere too much with her choices.

The choice of whether to activate or not to activate this constitution is entirely up to Little Fairy Doctor.

Moreover, although the Calamity Poison Body is terrifying, it is not entirely without a way to save one.

At least, Gu Fei remembered that in the original story, Yao Lao had a way to save Xiao Yi Xian's life.

He remembered that it was through the method of using poison pills that the hidden danger of the calamity-inducing poison body was eliminated.

This eliminates the side effects of the Calamity Poison Body, leaving only its positive and powerful effects.

Gu Fei was leaning against the cave wall, lost in thought, when he was startled awake by Little Fairy Doctor's cheerful voice.

"Young master, all these medicinal herbs have been collected. Here you go!"

While Gu Fei was pondering, Little Fairy Doctor happily came over carrying a pile of medicinal herbs.

Her eyes were bright and sparkling, and a few beads of sweat glistened on her forehead from gathering herbs.

Her purple hair was soaked with sweat, sticking stickily to Little Fairy Doctor's neck and cheeks.

The young woman, with a gentle expression like a lotus emerging from water, possessed a beauty that added to her charm.

Gu Fei's lips curled up as he put all the medicinal herbs into his storage ring without refusing again.

"Okay, let's go back to the herb-gathering team. If we stay out too long, people might get suspicious."

Little Fairy Doctor remembered that she and Gu Fei had been out for too long, and Mu Li's group of wolf-head mercenaries had also disappeared for a long time.

"If they don't show up soon, they'll probably start suspecting her and Gu Fei," she said hastily.

Gu Fei nodded, then walked behind Little Fairy Doctor, with her leading the way, and the two of them left the cave one after the other.

They reached the platform at the bottom of the cliff. This time, Gu Fei once again grabbed Xiao Yi Xian's slender waist and flew up.

He was very gentlemanly, holding her loosely, but he also used a bit of skill to prevent the little fairy doctor from struggling and falling.

[Little Fairy Doctor experiences a feeling of enjoyment, her emotion value increases by 100]

The time spent flying up was very short.

But Little Fairy Doctor actually seemed to be enjoying herself, and Gu Fei couldn't help but glance at her.

The girl's face was flushed, her lips were upturned, and she looked very relaxed.

When Gu Fei put her on the ground, she glanced at that hand with some reluctance before looking away.

After this incident, Little Fairy Doctor developed a deep affection for Gu Fei.

She herself didn't realize it, but the truth is that this affection had already subtly crossed the line of friendship.

Even, some romantic feelings between men and women began to sprout.

When the two reached the top of the cliff, only Muli's cold body lay there.

Muli seemed to die with his eyes open, but from now on he would only be left in this dense forest, with no chance to breathe again, and he might even be eaten by wild animals soon.

Those members of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group whose cultivation had been crippled by Gu Fei had already fled after Gu Fei and Little Fairy Doctor descended the cliff.

They dared not linger there, or even return to the group.

Young Commander Mu Li died, and they dared not collect his body, leaving him alone there.

Because they failed to protect the young leader, if they returned to the mercenary group, they would also face death, and the leader's methods of torture were even more terrifying.

Therefore, the only thing they could do left was to escape the Monster Mountain Range at this moment and live as ordinary people from then on.

Gu Fei didn't care about any of that, nor did he bother to care.

He acted as if nothing had happened, returning to the herb-gathering team with Little Fairy Doctor, his expression unusually calm.

This was the first time Little Fairy Doctor had done something like this, and although her acting was a bit stiff, she managed to fool all the mercenaries.

Although some people noticed that many members of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group were missing, they didn't suspect them.

……

On a dirt road a hundred miles away from Qingshan Town, a young man in black is struggling to move forward.

His face still looked a little young, but his eyes were very determined.

Upon closer inspection, one could see that the black-clad youth was carrying an extremely large black greatsword on his back.

However, it is more accurate to describe this as a thick iron ruler without any sharp edge or blade than a giant sword.

The black greatsword had no tip; at its end, it appeared as if it had been cleaved in two by something, revealing a smooth, mirror-like cross-section.

On the surface of that pitch-black giant sword were drawn strange, somewhat blurry patterns that extended all the way to the hilt and covered almost the entire blade.

The unusual patterns, combined with the ancient, jet-black color, give it a rather mysterious look.

The bizarre giant sword was almost longer than the boy's height.

It looked as if the giant sword was about to crush the boy at any moment.

This unusual combination drew curious glances from passersby.

This person was none other than Xiao Yan.

"Teacher, you said before that you wanted me to traverse the Monster Mountain Range? I wonder what your intention was. Did you want me to be in danger so that I could unleash my true potential?"

Xiao Yan stopped and seemed to be talking to himself, but the answer he was looking forward to did not come.

"It seems the teacher hasn't woken up yet, so I'll have to rely on myself for everything..."

After a long while, Xiao Yan sighed and continued on his way.
