Chaos Green Lotus Flame Fire Seed

Qingshan Town.

Lin Mu and Xiao Yi Xian landed here. They had barely taken a few steps when a woman suddenly appeared from the side and called out to them.

"Xiao Yi Xian! Xiao Yi Xian!"

Xiao Yi Xian followed the voice and saw a woman poking her head out from nearby, waving at her and Lin Mu to come over.

After winding through several turns, the three of them finally reached a secluded place.

"Xiao Yi Xian, why did you come back?! Mu Li is dead! The Wolf Head Mercenary Group's leader has gone mad searching all over Qingshan Town for whoever killed Mu Li, and you're one of the people he's after!"

Xiao Yi Xian rubbed the woman's head. "Qiao'er, take it slow. Didn't I come back?"

"This is Qiao'er, one of my few friends in Qingshan Town. Qiao'er, this is my friend too, Lin Mu." Xiao Yi Xian introduced Lin Mu to Qiao'er, then introduced Qiao'er to him.

Qiao'er raised her head slightly and glanced at Lin Mu. "Xiao Yi Xian... is he the one who killed Mu Li..."

"So handsome..."

Seemingly realizing that this was not the time to swoon over him, Qiao'er hurriedly shook her head. "No matter what, Xiao Yi Xian, you should take Mister Lin Mu and leave this place quickly."

"I know a secret passage that can lead you out of Qingshan Town."

Seeing Qiao'er's concern, Xiao Yi Xian smiled and patted her hand. "It's fine. Leave it to me."

"I'm not the Xiao Yi Xian I used to be."

That day, all of Qingshan Town was thrown into an uproar.

The once-arrogant Wolf Head Mercenary Group had been wiped out. Even its leader had failed to last a single move against the person who attacked him.

What shocked everyone even more was that the person who had acted was Xiao Yi Xian!

The Xiao Yi Xian who always wore a gentle smile had turned out to be a powerful expert capable of killing the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's leader with a flick of her hand. From then on, every man in Qingshan Town who had harbored improper intentions toward her became thoroughly well-behaved.

For the first time, people realized that Xiao Yi Xian, who had always kept a low profile and treated everyone gently, was not some weak woman who could be bullied at will.

[Congratulations, Host, for witnessing: Medusa's evolution and Xiao Yi Xian's transformation. Reward: the Spirit Engraver profession ability. As the Host's strength increases, the Spirit Engraving ability will also grow stronger.]

The system's sudden reward nearly left Lin Mu unable to process such overwhelming good fortune. But he quickly came to his senses. Wasn't a Spirit Engraver the profession that Elegant Man had mentioned, one that had existed only in ancient times?!

"So Spirit Engravers really do exist."

Lin Mu absorbed the extra information in his mind, then called out to Xiao Yi Xian beside him.

"What is it, Lin Mu?" Xiao Yi Xian asked doubtfully.

"Could you let me take a look at the Poison Array diagram the Medicine Valley master gave you earlier?" Lin Mu asked.

"Of course. But it seems only a Spirit Engraver, like that senior mentioned, can understand this diagram."

Xiao Yi Xian did not think much of it. She took out the Black Scroll from her clothes and handed it to Lin Mu.

After Lin Mu took it, Soul Power began to surge forth. Under the pressure of his Soul Power, the Black Scroll before them suddenly emitted a dark glow, and layers of seemingly simple yet incomparably intricate array diagrams projected themselves before Lin Mu and Xiao Yi Xian.

"This... Lin Mu, you can use this scroll?" Xiao Yi Xian cried out.

"Just luck. I know a little about Spirit Engraver abilities."

Lin Mu smiled and nodded.

"Then that means you can use this Poison Array Method?" Xiao Yi Xian asked in immense delight. She had never expected Lin Mu to possess the ability of a Spirit Engraver, a profession that had existed only in ancient times. If so, perhaps her Calamity Poison Body could truly be completely controlled!

Lin Mu narrowed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then shook his head helplessly. "This Poison Array is too complicated. I might not be able to do it yet."

"But give me some time, and I can manage it. By then, you'll truly be able to control the Calamity Poison Body."

Xiao Yi Xian nodded. No matter what, the hope of controlling her Calamity Poison Body had grown a little greater. In any case, there was still some time before it truly erupted.

"Lin Mu, thank you." Xiao Yi Xian's eyes reddened, making her look especially pitiful and lovely.

"If you're thanking me, then how are you going to thank me?" Lin Mu asked with a sly grin.

Xiao Yi Xian froze, then could not help shooting him a glare. "You're never serious!"

"Hahaha." For some reason, Lin Mu found Xiao Yi Xian's puffed-up expression rather delightful.

Seeing Lin Mu's smug look, Xiao Yi Xian suddenly gritted her teeth, as though making up her mind. She grabbed his collar, rose lightly onto her toes, and pressed her moist red lips against his.

Lin Mu's pupils contracted slightly.

Good lord, this is getting intense?!

Lin Mu kept repeating a single sentence in his heart.

I'm a decent man. I'm a decent man. In a situation like this, whoever chickens out is a coward!

Lin Mu began to take the initiative. In contrast, Xiao Yi Xian, who had been the one to act first, gradually became passive. Under Lin Mu's forceful advance, she could only respond awkwardly, her cheeks burning as hot as fire.

Fortunately, Lin Mu had followed Xiao Yi Xian back to her residence. If they had been anywhere else, Xiao Yi Xian probably would never have made such a decision.

"E-Enough!"

Only after a long while did Xiao Yi Xian finally break free. Her face was flushed red. Seeing Lin Mu still looking as if he wanted more, she could not help raising her pale fist and punching him in the chest.

"Lin Mu, thank you for helping me. If it weren't for you, I might still be that utterly ordinary Xiao Yi Xian, lost in endless confusion because of the Calamity Poison Body. Perhaps many people would have suffered disasters because of me."

"Luckily, you were there. You let me see the road ahead clearly."

Once she calmed down, Xiao Yi Xian returned to her usual pure and innocent appearance. Standing by the window with a faint smile on her face, she spoke to Lin Mu beside her.

"When we meet again, don't let me surpass you."

Xiao Yi Xian smiled.

"I won't give you that chance. From now on, I'll be the only one protecting you. When we meet again, I'll definitely make you my wife." Lin Mu smiled and shook his head.

"What a lecher. You should worry about taking care of that Beauty Snake first~" Xiao Yi Xian huffed softly.

Then Xiao Yi Xian left. She departed decisively, and Lin Mu did not try to stop her. Xiao Yi Xian had her own path to walk. Perhaps when they met again, her achievements would leave Lin Mu utterly astonished.
