The Drawbacks of the Calamity Poison Body

Seeing that Blue Eagle's injuries had already improved, Xiao Yi Xian felt a surge of joy. Then, hearing Lu Chuan's words, she hesitated briefly before respectfully saying, "Xiao Yi Xian greets Master."

Lu Chuan had saved her life, and he had also saved Giant Blue Eagle's life.

Therefore, when Xiao Yi Xian addressed him as Master, she did so with complete sincerity.

Lu Chuan was very satisfied with Xiao Yi Xian's attitude. His gaze finally fell upon the Wolf Head Mercenary Group around them, and he coldly asked, "Should these people be killed or spared?"

"Senior, spare our lives!"

"Senior, this junior did not mean to offend you..."

Lu Chuan's words frightened Mu She and Son senseless. They hurriedly prostrated themselves on the ground and begged Lu Chuan, hoping that he would show them mercy.

Hearing Lu Chuan's words, Xiao Yi Xian cast a cold glance at Mu She and Son.

"Master, I want to take revenge with my own hands in the future."

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Yi Xian said this to Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan looked at the determined Xiao Yi Xian and nodded indifferently. The mere Wolf Head Mercenary Group was not worth his concern.

Since Xiao Yi Xian wanted to take revenge herself, he would let her do so.

"Why aren't you getting lost yet?!"

Lu Chuan barked at the Wolf Head Mercenary Group around them. Mu She and Son hurriedly thanked him, then scrambled away in utter panic.

"Come, return to This King's Cave Mansion."

Next, Xiao Yi Xian mounted the fully recovered Giant Blue Eagle and followed behind Lu Chuan as they flew toward the depths of the Monster Beast Mountain Range.

"Master, where are we going?"

Lu Chuan controlled his flying speed so that Xiao Yi Xian could keep up behind him.

But as Xiao Yi Xian watched Lu Chuan lead her deeper and deeper into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, she could not help feeling somewhat puzzled.

It was said that powerful magical beasts roamed the depths of the Monster Beast Mountain Range.

At that moment, Xiao Yi Xian could even feel Giant Blue Eagle trembling all over, as though some terrifying presence lurked nearby.

If they continued onward, was Master not afraid that something might happen?

"Of course, we are returning to This King's Cave Mansion."

Lu Chuan's calm voice drifted from ahead.

"Master's Cave Mansion?"

Xiao Yi Xian froze upon hearing this. Then, as though she had suddenly realized something, her eyes widened as she stared at Lu Chuan's back in disbelief. "Could it be... Master, you are... a magical beast?"

Although her strength was low, she had heard certain legends from other mercenaries.

According to legend, some powerful magical beasts possessed the ability to transform into Human Form, becoming no different from true humans.

Could Master be a powerful magical beast that had taken Human Form?

"That is correct. This King is the overlord of this region of the Monster Beast Mountain Range," Lu Chuan said calmly.

Hearing Lu Chuan's words, Xiao Yi Xian froze, and her feelings immediately became complicated.

She had actually become the servant of a magical beast?

Life truly was strange.

Not long ago, she had still been the respected Xiao Yi Xian of Qingshan Town.

Now, she had become the servant of a magical beast.

However, after learning of Lu Chuan's identity as a magical beast, although Xiao Yi Xian felt some resistance in her heart, she ultimately forced herself to endure it.

So what if he was a magical beast?

So what if she was human?

She only knew that if Master had not appeared today, she and Little Blue would surely have faced certain death.

Xiao Yi Xian would never dare forget the grace of saving her life for as long as she lived.

Moreover, Master had also saved Little Blue's life.

To Xiao Yi Xian, Lu Chuan had saved her life twice.

She was kind by nature. Since she had already agreed to Lu Chuan's terms, she would never regret it.

"Master, why did you save me?"

Seeing that Lu Chuan seemed easy to talk to, Xiao Yi Xian voiced the question in her heart.

She knew she had never met Lu Chuan before. Yet he had suddenly appeared today to save her and demanded that she submit to him.

It seemed that he had come specifically for her.

This left Xiao Yi Xian confused. What value did she possess that made Master deliberately appear and save her?

Suddenly, a flash of insight crossed Xiao Yi Xian's mind.

Could it be because of... the Calamity Poison Body?

After learning from the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture that she possessed the Calamity Poison Body.

Xiao Yi Xian believed that the most precious thing she possessed was none other than the Calamity Poison Body.

Her Master had revealed himself and taken her in of his own accord—could it be that he had come for her Calamity Poison Body?

"It seems you've already guessed it."

Seeing the change in Xiao Yi Xian's expression through his Spiritual Power, Lu Chuan said calmly, "That's right. This King came precisely for your Calamity Poison Body."

Xiao Yi Xian's expression changed as she said, "Master, do you mean for me to activate the Calamity Poison Body?"

Those who possessed the Calamity Poison Body had a tiny, faint seven-colored line on their Lower Abdomen. The line would grow along with the concentration of poison within their body. When it extended to the heart, the Calamity Poison Body would reach its strongest state—but at the same time, its owner would suffer the agony of countless poisons devouring their body...

Recalling the description of the Calamity Poison Body in the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture, Xiao Yi Xian's pretty face immediately changed. She unconsciously touched her Lower Abdomen, her face gradually turning pale.

Although the Calamity Poison Body could make her powerful, once activated, it would sooner or later lead to death.

That was why, despite learning that she possessed the Calamity Poison Body, Xiao Yi Xian had delayed activating it.

"Of course. Such a heaven-bestowed divine body would be a waste if left unactivated." Lu Chuan said to Xiao Yi Xian.

People with a constitution like the Calamity Poison Body did not need years of cultivating battle qi in order to grow stronger. They only needed to consume poison.

Their Calamity Poison Body would automatically transform the toxic power contained within poison into an extremely special kind of poisonous battle qi through an eerie method.

The stronger the poison, the more beneficial it was to the growth of their strength.

Who wouldn't envy a constitution that could grow stronger simply by taking poison?

"It's just that, Master... do you know that after activating the Calamity Poison Body... I'll eventually die from countless poisons devouring my body?"

Xiao Yi Xian looked troubled as she voiced her concern.

"So that's what you're worried about."

Hearing this, Lu Chuan smiled faintly. "Since This King is willing to save you, naturally I have a way to solve it."

"Go ahead and activate the Calamity Poison Body without worry. This King has a way to preserve your life." Lu Chuan's tone brimmed with confidence.

In the original work, Yao Chen possessed the Poison Pill Method, which could resolve the drawbacks of the Calamity Poison Body.

Now that Yao Chen had already submitted to him, he naturally had a solution as well.

"Really?"

Upon hearing Lu Chuan's words, Xiao Yi Xian's beautiful eyes immediately lit up, and joy appeared on her lovely face.

"Of course it's true. Just activate the Calamity Poison Body without worry. This King will ensure that your life is safe." Lu Chuan said calmly.

"Th... thank you, Master!"

Having received Lu Chuan's assurance, Xiao Yi Xian was overjoyed.

Lu Chuan smiled. "You don't need to worry anymore now, do you?"

"Mhm, Master, thank you." Xiao Yi Xian spoke sincerely, deeply moved in her heart.

At that moment, she felt immensely fortunate that Heaven had allowed her to meet her Master.

Otherwise, if she activated the Calamity Poison Body in the future, she would not even know how to face this world.

"Mhm. Cultivate diligently from now on. The Calamity Poison Body is a gift from Heaven, so don't burden yourself over it. Little do you know, others would be jealous of your Calamity Poison Body." Lu Chuan smiled faintly, teasing her.
