Treasure Hunting with Xiao Yi Xian

As Xiao Yi Xian and Xiao Tian arrived at a cliff, Xiao Yi Xian said, "It's here. But I'm not sure whether there's actually treasure inside. I'm not strong enough, so I can't get in."

Xiao Tian said, "We'll know if we go down and take a look." As he spoke, he took out a rope and said to Xiao Yi Xian, "Come over and hold on to me. I'll take you down."

Xiao Yi Xian blushed at his words. "You're not trying to take advantage of me, are you?" Xiao Tian replied, "If I wanted to take advantage of you, I wouldn't need an excuse like this. Do you think you could stop me if I did something to you right now? Those little poisons in your hand aren't nearly enough."

Xiao Yi Xian snorted. "Fine, you're amazing, okay?" Having been seen through, she put the medicine in her hand back into her bag. After hesitating, she walked over and hugged Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian held her with one arm and gripped the rope with the other as he jumped down. The moment they landed at the cave entrance, he used Instant Cloud Ladder and entered the cave. Xiao Yi Xian was stunned. What an incredible Movement Technique! Who exactly was this young man?

With those questions in her heart, she followed Xiao Tian inside. After the two avoided several traps, they arrived before the cave. At that moment, the long-silent Crappy System finally chimed in.

"Ding! Demonic Flame Fragment Map discovered. Demonic Flame Quest issued. After the host gathers all four fragment maps, mission reward: this system can help subdue the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame! No time limit."

Xiao Tian said nothing after hearing it. He was already used to this Crappy System, so he did not care.

"And since the system received no reply, it immediately went back to lurking. After all, as a system, it was very busy! It had to arrange mahjong games with other systems and stuff!!"

Xiao Tian said to Xiao Yi Xian, "Step back a little!" Xiao Yi Xian was confused. What was he doing? Still, she obediently took several steps back. Xiao Tian said, "Get behind me, stupid woman!" Xiao Yi Xian said unhappily, "Hmph! You didn't explain yourself." Reluctantly, she walked behind Xiao Tian, muttering under her breath.

Xiao Tian ignored her and directly struck the stone door. "Blazing Flame Palm!" A powerful flame-shaped palm shot toward the stone door. Boom! The stone door was blasted open.

Xiao Tian said, "Let's go in." Xiao Yi Xian stared blankly at the young man. He looked several years younger than her, yet he was already this powerful? After standing there in a daze for a while, she heard Xiao Tian call out, "If you don't come in, I won't be polite about taking everything for myself!"

Xiao Yi Xian huffed, then jogged after him. Once inside, she saw medicinal herbs covering the ground, and her heart raced with excitement.

Xiao Tian said, "I'll only take that Ice Spirit Flame Grass. The rest of the herbs are yours." To Xiao Tian, those things only had a price tag. He had no interest in them.

Xiao Yi Xian was different. Hearing that, she happily smiled. "Thank you. I didn't expect you to be so generous." Xiao Tian glanced at the bag of poison in her hand and said, "Little poison girl, you'd better put your poison away. If you secretly take it out again, I'll rape you right here in this cave!"

Hearing that, Xiao Yi Xian put the medicine she had prepared for self-defense back into her bag. She stuck out her tongue at Xiao Tian and said, "You were the one who said not to trust people so easily. I'm only doing what you taught me!"

Xiao Tian smiled. "But those things of yours might work against trash. They won't do much to me!"

Xiao Tian said, "All right, let's check those treasure chests first." He then took the key from the skeleton and pulled out the Demonic Flame Fragment Map. Seeing him hold that torn map, Xiao Yi Xian asked, "What's that scrap of paper for?"

Xiao Tian said, "It's a secret, so I can't tell you."

He brought Xiao Yi Xian to the treasure chests and opened them one by one. In the first box was a Seven-Colored Poison Scripture. Xiao Tian said, "Take it. It suits a little poison girl like you."

Xiao Yi Xian froze. She had wanted to become an Alchemist, but her talent was too poor. On top of that, she possessed the Calamity Poison Body, and a wave of disappointment rose in her heart.

Seeing Xiao Yi Xian looking so dejected, Xiao Tian naturally knew why. He could not help saying, "The Calamity Poison Body isn't impossible to cure. It's just that I'm not strong enough yet. Just cultivate in peace. I can help you in the future!"

Xiao Yi Xian was stunned, then asked in shock, "How do you know I have the Calamity Poison Body?" Her hand secretly reached into her bag again for poison as she watched Xiao Tian warily.

Xiao Tian looked at the girl guarding against him as though he were a thief, and he became a little unhappy. "I kindly reminded you that you can be cured. What kind of attitude is that, little poison girl?"

Xiao Yi Xian also felt that her caution was somewhat unnecessary. The things in her hand would be useless against him, and if he truly wanted to attack her, she would have no ability to resist at all!

Then she forced herself to smile calmly. "I have the Calamity Poison Body. I'm the little poison girl you mentioned. Hmph, are you scared now?" Xiao Tian walked straight toward Xiao Yi Xian and wrapped an arm around her waist.

"I'm not scared, but I do want to taste what this poison girl is like." He said it with a wicked grin. Xiao Yi Xian watched Xiao Tian approach and pull her into his arms, taking advantage of her. Even the hand she was about to use to grab medicine was restrained.

Xiao Yi Xian was truly flustered now. She said timidly, "What are you doing? I'm telling you, even if you're very strong, if you do anything to me, the mercenaries of Qingshan Town won't let you go! Mmph... mmph!"

Unfortunately, before she could finish threatening him, her small mouth was sealed by his. He kissed and nibbled at her soft, fragrant lips. After the kiss—

Xiao Tian said, "Whether they let me go or not, I don't care. To me, they're just trash. I might not be able to beat them now, but that doesn't mean I won't be able to in the future. You taste pretty good. From now on, you're my woman!" Xiao Yi Xian said, "Bullshit! Who's your woman? You bastard!" Xiao Tian laughed as he looked at the shy and angry Xiao Yi Xian. "You look beautiful right now. I like it. Cultivate peacefully. I'll help resolve the problem with your body. Within three to five years at most, I'll definitely have the strength to handle it!"

After hearing Xiao Tian's words, Xiao Yi Xian asked doubtfully, "Why are you treating me so well? I may become a poison girl in the future. If the Calamity Poison Body erupts, it could kill many people!"

Xiao Tian said, "Why am I treating you well? I don't know either. Maybe because I like you. Your figure is pretty nice, after all. As for what you're worried about, it doesn't matter to me. Whether other people see you as a poison girl who harms others or an immortal healer who saves them, to me, you're only the little poison girl I met today. You belong to me, understand? Without my permission, just cultivate obediently and stop thinking about that useless crap!"

Listening to Xiao Tian's domineering tone as he brazenly took advantage of her, Xiao Yi Xian thought, How thick is this guy's skin? Yet she was secretly happy. That was right—no matter what others thought of her in the future, at least the man before her said he would not despise her. She would not be alone anymore.

While Xiao Yi Xian was moved, Xiao Tian handed the poison scripture to her. "Take it. But I should warn you, if you cultivate it, you'll suffer a lot. Do you understand?"

Xiao Yi Xian nodded at his words.

Then they went to the second chest. Inside was a Flight Battle Skill. Xiao Tian had the Crappy System copy it and implant it into his mind. After casually flipping through it a few times, he handed it to Xiao Yi Xian behind him. "Take it and cultivate it properly!"

Xiao Yi Xian opened it and saw that it was a Flight Battle Skill! And a Mysterious Tier Advanced Battle Skill at that: Eagle's Wing! "You're not keeping a Battle Skill like this for yourself?" Xiao Tian shook his head. "I've already memorized it. Take it. Consider it a means of saving your life!"

Xiao Yi Xian thought he was only saying that to give the Battle Skill to her. How could anyone memorize something after reading it once? Just as she was about to return it to him—

Xiao Tian said, "When I give something to a woman—especially my woman—you take it obediently. I won't take it back!" Xiao Yi Xian snorted. "Shameless! Who's your woman?" Although her words were stubborn, she felt a little sweetness in her heart.

When they reached the third chest and opened it, they found another Battle Skill. "Mysterious Tier Advanced, Raging Lion's Roar!" Xiao Tian said, "I won't give this one to you. Women should be gentler, after all."

Xiao Yi Xian had already received so much that she was completely satisfied. "Xiao Tian, thank you." Xiao Tian shook his head. "Have you forgotten what I said before?" Xiao Yi Xian smiled warmly at his words. It was a smile of genuine happiness, and even Xiao Tian, who was watching her, could hardly resist it. That smile was peerless—too beautiful to take in!

Shaking his head, he pulled Xiao Yi Xian along. "Hurry up and gather the herbs. Once we're done, we'll head out. Is there somewhere quiet where we can cultivate for a while?" Xiao Yi Xian said, "Yes. When I was gathering herbs, I found a small valley. Let's go there!"

Xiao Tian gave Xiao Yi Xian an Intermediate Ring. "Here, it's for you. Use it to store things." Xiao Yi Xian was about to refuse, but when she saw that Xiao Tian was about to get angry, she remembered what he had said earlier and accepted it. After gathering the herbs, the two arrived at the cave entrance.

Xiao Yi Xian called out, "Wait, I'll call my friend to pick us up. It's a First-Class Flying Beast I saved while gathering herbs!" She took out a flute and blew it. A moment later, an eagle-shaped magical beast arrived.

Xiao Yi Xian climbed onto it and said to Xiao Tian, "Come up. We'll go to the valley I found." Xiao Tian jumped up at once and hugged Xiao Yi Xian from behind.

After only blushing slightly, Xiao Yi Xian had Blue Eagle take off. Before long, they arrived at the valley Xiao Yi Xian had mentioned.

Xiao Tian got down and looked around the small valley, sighing, "What a beautiful, relaxing place. Did you build that little thatched hut?" Xiao Yi Xian nodded. "Yes. I discovered this place by accident, and it's like my second home. Hehe. There are plenty of medicinal herbs and wild vegetables too."

"Mm, not bad. There's food and water, fresh air, beautiful scenery, and somewhere to live. It really is a good place. We'll cultivate here for a while, then I need to return to Wutan City to register at Jia Nan Academy," Xiao Tian said thoughtfully.

Xiao Yi Xian asked, "You're going to Jia Nan Academy?" Xiao Tian nodded. "Yes, because there's something I need there. But I'm not going now. I'm only going to register first. You shouldn't return to Qingshan Town either. Cultivate here in peace. The things you're carrying will bring you trouble." Xiao Yi Xian said, "It should be fine, right? The owner of the Ten Thousand Medicine Pavilion has always treated me well!"

Xiao Tian said, "That won't do either. You can know someone's face but not their heart. Stay here and cultivate obediently. You're not allowed to have a favorable impression of any other man besides me!" Xiao Yi Xian snorted. "So domineering. You petty man, I know."

After a quiet moment, Xiao Yi Xian said, "After cultivating for a while, I want to go to the Cloud Empire and have a look. There are more poison masters there, so it would suit me better."

Xiao Tian nodded and said, "Once I have the ability to refine something that can suppress the Calamity Poison Body, I'll go find you."

Xiao Yi Xian said, "All right, I'll make something for you to eat first. Then we can cultivate." Xiao Tian said, "Okay, but if it doesn't taste good, I won't eat it."
