Little Fairy Doctor

"Little Fairy Doctor, I'm back." After resting enough in the bamboo grove, Ye Qiu returned to the Ten Thousand Medicines Shop in Green Mountain Town.

That's right, the Ten Thousand Medicines Shop. The first person he had encountered after transmigrating here had actually been the Calamity Poison Body—Little Fairy Doctor. It had taken him a long time to calm down. Likewise, it was through Little Fairy Doctor that he had deduced this was the world of Battle Through the Heavens. As for the system, it had still been replenishing its energy at the time!

Seeing that Ye Qiu was alone and seemed not to know anything, Little Fairy Doctor thought he might have lost his memory. So she took him in and had him help out at the Ten Thousand Medicines Shop.

A few days passed, and the system awoke after fully replenishing its energy. It issued him a gift pack containing an initial sum of one hundred Gold Coins, enough for Ye Qiu to live on for quite some time. Yet he still chose to remain at the Ten Thousand Medicines Shop.

Perhaps it was because he had no acquaintances in This World, while he knew the original story well and had some understanding of Little Fairy Doctor. She was also the first person he had seen after transmigrating, which gave him a sense of familiarity and led him to stay here.

"You're back? Then hurry up and help. Why are you always slacking off? Ah! How did you get yourself so filthy again? Go take a bath and change into clean clothes. We have an important task to handle soon." Turning around and seeing Ye Qiu in tattered clothes, Little Fairy Doctor could not help frowning as she spoke.

"Oh, all right. I'll go right away. By the way, what important task is it?" Hearing Little Fairy Doctor's words and looking at his current state, Ye Qiu's face reddened slightly. He had been taking advantage of her hospitality this whole time, hardly doing any work while eating and using her things.

"It's Steward Fei Xu from the Great Medicine Hall in Wu Tan City. He bought a large quantity of medicinal herbs from us, and we're about to deliver this batch to Wu Tan City. You'll come help too. This is a major deal, and if we do well, the profit share will be substantial," Little Fairy Doctor explained.

"Mm, this... mm, all right." Knowing that Little Fairy Doctor was looking after him, Ye Qiu did not refuse. Little Fairy Doctor had always believed he was an ordinary person who could not contribute much, yet she still included him in the delivery team. Wasn't she practically handing him money? How could he, a grown man, accept that so shamelessly?

But Wu Tan City was where the plot began, and Ye Qiu wanted to see exactly what point in time this was. As for Little Fairy Doctor, he already owed her so many favors. A few more would make no difference; he would repay them all together someday.

After the time it took to burn an incense stick, around twenty people, including Little Fairy Doctor and Ye Qiu, gathered behind the gates of the Ten Thousand Medicines Shop.

"Set off!" At Little Fairy Doctor's command, everyone set out with the medicinal herbs. There were three full carts of herbs, all pulled by horses.

Most of the guards rode fine horses alongside the convoy, while Ye Qiu sat in a corner of one of the cargo carts with Little Fairy Doctor and several apprentices.

Taking advantage of this time, Ye Qiu secretly circulated the power of the Gravity Fruit Within The Body, hoping to develop skills like Fujitora's.

Ye Qiu quietly circulated his Dou Qi and crooked a finger at the Aluminum Alloy Sword hanging at his waist.

After more than a dozen attempts, the Aluminum Alloy Sword finally slid slightly out of its sheath.

Ding. Skill developed: Gravity Manipulation (Earth Rank High Level).

"Hmm? System, are you sure you didn't get that wrong? I only made the sword move a little. This is Earth Rank High Level?"

"Host, you have indeed developed Gravity Manipulation, and its power is indeed Equivalent To an Earth Rank High Level Dou Technique. As for why its power is so weak in the Host's hands, there are two reasons. First, the Host has not practiced diligently and lacks sufficient understanding of this skill. Second, the Host's Dou Qi is too weak to bring out its true power."

"You could've just said I suck." Ye Qiu complained, though he was also somewhat happy. As expected of an A-rank item, the skill developed from the Gravity Fruit could actually rival an Earth Rank High Level Dou Technique. I wonder what the Gravity Field and Gravity Blade are like?

"Ye Qiu, what are you doing?" Seeing Ye Qiu constantly fiddling with his fingers, Little Fairy Doctor could not help asking.

"Oh, nothing, nothing." Interrupted by Little Fairy Doctor, Ye Qiu suddenly raised his head and waved his hands repeatedly. That was careless. I forgot there were so many people around me. It would be troublesome if I exposed myself. Everyone thinks I'm an ordinary person, and it wouldn't be good to scare them.

"If something's wrong, you should tell me," Little Fairy Doctor said when she saw Ye Qiu's flustered smile.

"Mm-hmm." Ye Qiu nodded hurriedly. She really was a kind girl.

Ye Qiu put on an obedient expression, so Little Fairy Doctor said nothing more.

Rustle, rustle, rustle. The convoy traveled along a forest path. Since they were pressed for time, they had chosen a relatively secluded but shorter route. Then, a violent gust suddenly rose, making everyone unable to open their eyes.

"Uh, what's going on?" Shi Qiu asked in confusion. How could there suddenly be such a strong wind? They were in the middle of the forest, surrounded on both sides by bamboo more than ten meters tall.

"Look, look at the sky!" While everyone kept rubbing their eyes, the only Dou Master expert in the convoy pointed toward the sky and shouted, a trace of panic in his voice.

"That is..." After a while, when the wind stopped, everyone discovered the source of the gale. A massive bird-like monster circled overhead, staring down at them.

"A Rank 1 Magical Beast Blue Eagle!" Gazing at the enormous blue bird in the sky, Little Fairy Doctor slowly let out a soft breath.
