Under the dim night sky, atop a steep cliff, two figures flickered in and out of view beneath the faint moonlight.

"Let's go."

Xiao Yi Xian spoke softly. Bending slightly, she crouched down and gathered some dry branches from the ground, lighting a torch. Her pale white dress slipped down slightly, revealing a glimpse of spring.

"So big." Xiao Huo muttered, withdrawing his gaze with a slight curl of his lips.

"Hmph! No peeking!" Realizing something, Xiao Yi Xian's cheeks flushed red. She hurriedly covered her chest and shot Xiao Huo an embarrassed glare.

"I was looking openly," Xiao Huo said, spreading his hands.

Xiao Yi Xian rolled her eyes at him, keeping both hands over her chest and ignoring him. Her white dress outlined the girl's exquisite curves; she was slender and graceful.

"Brother Xiao Huo, how do we get down from here? I'm afraid of heights." Xiao Yi Xian gritted her teeth, trembling slightly. After all, they were right beside a cliff.

"Come here." Xiao Huo opened his arms in an embrace and looked at Xiao Yi Xian with a smile. It was time to take advantage of Xiao Yi Xian again—wasn't that wonderful?

"You bastard!"

"I sell my skills, not my body!" Xiao Yi Xian retreated another step, then her expression changed in panic as she realized her foot had missed the ground! She fell straight off the cliff!

"Ah~~"

The girl's cry rang out. Terror filled Xiao Yi Xian's beautiful eyes as she squeezed them shut, her entire body turning cold. She had never imagined that she would fall off a cliff!

It was over!

Even if Xiao Huo was a Dou Master, he couldn't save her!

But... she was still a virgin...

"Hm?" Xiao Yi Xian felt a strong hand gently supporting her slender waist. A warm current flowed straight into her heart. What had happened?

"Is this heaven?" Xiao Yi Xian asked softly, her dazed eyes looking around. Yet the face that entered her sight was Xiao Huo's once more.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Xiao Huo smiled, lightly brushing a finger over the girl's nose. "I told you, as long as I'm here, you won't be in danger."

"Y-you're taking advantage of me again!" Xiao Yi Xian's face turned scarlet. Just as she tried to struggle, she felt herself lose her balance again, as though she could fall at any moment.

"Don't move around. We're in the air," Xiao Huo said with a smile, holding the soft, fragrant body in his arms as a warm scent wafted toward him.

He had touched them just now...

Mm... it really was a C!

A C wasn't small either. Once Xiao Yi Xian developed a little more, they could grow bigger.

"In the air?" Xiao Yi Xian's beautiful eyes widened in surprise. She looked at Xiao Huo in astonishment, letting out a gasp of admiration, with a hint of worship in her eyes.

"Brother Xiao Huo, you can actually use Dou Qi Wings? Could it be... you're a Dou Wang?" Xiao Yi Xian swallowed. The shock the young man before her had given her was simply too great!

She had originally thought Xiao Huo was merely a Dou Master. Becoming a Dou Master at such a young age already made him an absolute genius, unmatched by anyone!

But if Xiao Huo was a Dou Wang...

Xiao Yi Xian sucked in a breath!

She had never heard of such a young Dou Wang!

Terrifying indeed!

So this was Xiao Huo's true strength? He... he was actually so mysterious. For a moment, Xiao Yi Xian's thoughts began to wander. Could Brother Xiao Huo's lust for her have been an act too?

Hmph...

That jerk definitely wasn't pretending! He kept taking advantage of her in every possible way!

"No, I'm a Dou Emperor," Xiao Huo said casually, as though it meant nothing. He had the Yun Yun Trial Card at the Dou Emperor level, so naturally he had to make good use of it.

"A D-Dou Emperor?" Xiao Yi Xian's mouth fell completely open, as if her entire being had suffered an immense impact. She was utterly stunned!

A Dou Emperor!

An existence at the Dou Emperor level...

Xiao Huo was actually a Dou Emperor?!

This... this...

No wonder he could send a Tier 2 Magical Beast flying with a single slap. With such strength... what couldn't he do?

"Wow! How... how can you be this powerful?" Xiao Yi Xian's eyes widened, and it seemed as though even her breathing had stopped. A Dou Emperor level expert was a top-tier existence throughout the entire Jia Ma Empire!

Such a peak expert would be personally welcomed even by the sect leader of the Misty Cloud Sect. Yet who could have imagined that Brother Xiao Huo possessed Dou Emperor cultivation?

"I was merely passing through this place when I happened to see you. In that instant, I knew that you were the woman destined for me."

"You are as beautiful as a fairy, miss, so I resorted to this measure in the hope of getting to know you... Yet I never expected to hurt you and steal your first kiss. I'm sorry. I hope you can forgive me." Xiao Huo smiled, looking utterly earnest. If Xun'er and Nalan Yanran saw him like this, they would definitely beat him senseless.

What an actor! An Oscar-worthy performance!

He was obviously a huge pervert, yet he still acted so serious! His cock was already hard, so what was he pretending for?

"Ah... it's fine, it's fine..." Xiao Yi Xian said softly. For some reason, she felt that the young man before her did not seem quite so hateful anymore.

"Destined..." Xiao Yi Xian's cheeks reddened as she lowered her head slightly. Could it be that she truly had a Prince Charming destined for her?

At the thought of her own constitution, Xiao Yi Xian lowered her head helplessly. She knew that with her constitution... was she still worthy of having a Prince Charming? If others discovered her constitution, they would probably keep their distance from her, wouldn't they?

"But..." Xiao Yi Xian's voice grew softer and softer, carrying a hint of grievance. With a constitution like hers, once it was discovered, who would still be willing to approach her?

"Listen to me first." Xiao Huo smiled gently. "I once heard a master astrologer say that my future woman would possess the Calamity Poison Body. I would meet her one day and save her twice."

Buzz!

Xiao Yi Xian's delicate body trembled slightly. The Calamity Poison Body!

This was her greatest and deepest secret. Aside from herself, no one knew about it.

Yet... Brother Xiao Huo had said it! And there was no way he could possibly know that she possessed the Calamity Poison Body!

Could it be... could Brother Xiao Huo truly be her Prince Charming?

But... but she had only met him for the first time today.

For a moment, Xiao Yi Xian's heartbeat quickened. Her beautiful eyes secretly glanced at Xiao Huo, then hurriedly looked away. For some reason, she felt that Xiao Huo was not so annoying after all. He was even a little handsome.

"What's wrong? Don't tell me you have the Calamity Poison Body?" Xiao Huo put on an innocent expression. He truly had acting skills worthy of an award!

"Mm... now we both know each other's secrets." Xiao Yi Xian lowered her head, with a trace of dejection in her beautiful eyes.

So what if Brother Xiao Huo was her destined man? She possessed the Calamity Poison Body and had been destined since birth to make others hate her. Perhaps... Brother Xiao Huo would keep his distance from her too?

"Really?" Xiao Huo's face lit up with delight, as though he were truly overjoyed. He directly took hold of Xiao Yi Xian's jade-like hand, though inwardly he was pleased as well. The time was ripe; all he needed was one more step...

"Mhm..." Xiao Yi Xian nodded lightly, her delicate body trembling. The young man before her had actually taken the initiative to hold her hand.

"Brother Xiao Huo... you don't hate me?" Xiao Yi Xian blinked her beautiful eyes and asked with delight, feeling both happy and surprised.

If an ordinary person learned her secret, they would surely stay far away from her. But Brother Xiao Huo was completely different. He had even taken the initiative to hold her little hand, and she did not resist.

"Why would I hate my woman?" Xiao Huo smiled and pulled the girl into his arms. Holding her icy-cold little hand, he felt a little heartache.
