"Alright!"
Xiao Yi Xian finished bandaging the uncle's wound and took a tissue from her assistant Lifi to wipe the sweat from her forehead.
"Xiao Yi Xian is amazing!"
"Yeah, yeah..."
"I want to be tormented too... no, no, no, treated gently!"
"You?"
Xiao Yi Xian smiled faintly as she watched the cheerful crowd around her. She was beginning to understand why her original self liked apothecaries and even more so, why she yearned to become an Alchemist.
This feeling of saving lives and healing the injured was truly wonderful...
She glanced at the transparent counter and seemed to discover something. Xiao Yi Xian's eyes fixed on a pale yellow block object in the far corner.
If she wasn't mistaken, this was definitely a priceless Blood Lotus Essence.
Xiao Yi Xian smiled at the clerk beside her and pointed at the Blood Lotus Essence, saying, "Please get me this Yellow Lotus Essence."
"Okay!"
The clerk, seeing Xiao Yi Xian greeting him with a smile, happily ran over and retrieved the Yellow Lotus Essence Xiao Yi Xian wanted.
Xiao Yi Xian held the Yellow Lotus Essence and examined it closely. She subtly scratched it with her fingernail. The slightly yellowish surface peeled back slightly, revealing a hint of blood-red color.
Looking at the Blood Lotus Essence, Xiao Yi Xian smiled and said, "I'll take this Yellow Lotus Essence."
The crowd laughed heartily as they watched Xiao Yi Xian carefully put away the Yellow Lotus Essence.
Everyone in Green Mountain Town knew how much Xiao Yi Xian loved Medicinal Materials, treating them like precious treasures. Today, they had witnessed it firsthand.
Xiao Yi Xian took out gold coins and handed them to the clerk. With a smile, she slowly departed under the reluctant gazes of the crowd.
The clerk sniffed the bag of gold coins, its faint medicinal scent making him reluctant to let go.
"Hey, give me that hundred gold coins, I'll give you two hundred!"
"Broke, I'll give you three hundred~"
"I'll give you five hundred~"
The crowd stared at the money bag in the clerk's hand like hungry wolves.
"Uh!"
The clerk wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and gave an awkward smile under their gazes.
"I'll give you a thousand, give me the bag!" a figure appeared outside the crowd and said arrogantly.
A rather large money bag appeared out of nowhere and was thrown at the clerk's head.
"Crack!"
The money bag fell to the ground with a pleasant sound. Judging by the sound, there was quite a bit of money.
"Who is it?"
The clerk's forehead began to swell, and faint green Fighting Energy gathered in his hand, as if he were about to kill someone out of anger.
Seeing the clerk's fury, the crowd fell silent. After all, who would dare offend an employee of a pharmacy?
They were just ordinary members of a mercenary group and often needed to come here for treatment or to buy and sell Medicinal Materials.
"Heh, it's me!"
A voice came from behind the crowd. Everyone moved aside, revealing a path.
The clerk was about to teach the newcomer a lesson, but upon seeing who it was, he immediately forced a smile and scurried over, handing over the money bag. "It's the Young Leader! Please!"
"Hmph!"
Mu Li snatched the money bag, sniffed it, and then swaggered off towards the Monster Beast Mountain Range with his fierce-looking brothers behind him, swinging the fragrant money bag.
Not a single person dared to speak. The Young Leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group was not someone to be trifled with. Only after Mu Li had gone far away did they dare to complain.
"Heh, he's just showing off because his father is one of the strongest here, what's the big deal?"
"Exactly~"
The clerk paid no mind to their words. Seeing that Mu Li hadn't bothered him further, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the money bag, and hurried towards the back hall.
Meanwhile, back in her room, Xiao Yi Xian elegantly ate the meal prepared by her assistant Lifi. She glanced at Lifi as she left, but didn't pay much attention.
She didn't care about anything else; she was hungry.
"Food is the paramount necessity for the people!"
The food in this world was indeed good, especially the Magic Beast meat in front of her, which had a great ( ̄~ ̄) chew.
She carefully observed that no one else was watching her, which put her at ease. She ate the delicious food from this other world in small bites. The taste on her tongue was truly the best she had ever experienced, in this life or her past one.
The unique texture, and even the fragrant aroma of the medicinal tea, enveloped her.
She was envious, jealous, and hateful of how well her original body ate and slept here, but why didn't she grow?
Looking down at herself, Xiao Yi Xian felt a bit embarrassed. Fortunately, she saw herself every day, so she didn't really care about the size.
Moreover, besides being monitored, everything else here was good. There were two guards in the courtyard outside, and servants who walked around from time to time...
Even after so many years, her original self hadn't realized that her closest assistant, Lifi, had been bought off by someone else.
She still remembered that in the original novel, Xiao Yi Xian was sold out by those around her, which was how Mu Li discovered her.
Her original self hadn't noticed anything strange about Lifi for so many years and had always treated her as a good friend.
"Sigh!"
Leaning her chin on her hand and tilting her head, she looked around her room. She didn't know what to do right now.
She had a feeling that if she wanted to break through to Dou Practitioner, her poisonous gas would erupt once. There were even faint, seven-colored poisonous lines appearing on her lower abdomen, though they weren't particularly obvious.
Her primary goal now was the cave, and then to find a place to break through to Dou Practitioner and endure the poisonous gas consuming her body. Otherwise, breaking through here might turn the entire Green Mountain Town into a small valley like in her memories.
The gold coins in the cave were not only more than all her possessions combined, but the medicinal materials and fighting skills were also what she needed most right now.
However, to take away all the treasures in that cave, she also needed a storage ring, the legendary Storage Ring.
Xiao Yi Xian extended her slender fingers, and a wisp of purple Dou Qi swirled around her fingertips. This powerful energy made her very curious.
In her past life on Earth, there was no such thing as Dou Qi. There was only spiritual energy in Eastern mythology and magic in Western mythology.
In her opinion, whether it was Poison Dou Qi or anything else, it was all just energy between heaven and earth.
Were all those who cultivated Poison Dou Qi insane murderers?
Were those who didn't cultivate Poison Dou Qi all good people?
Pure nonsense!
Wasn't the path of the strong paved with mountains of corpses and seas of blood?
Take the ruthless Empress she admired the most, for example. She wanted to become someone like the Empress in the future.
This world was called the Dou Qi Continent. From Dou Practitioner to Dou Saint was the highest known realm.
But above Dou Saint, there was the legendary Emperor Realm. To become an Emperor, one needed Origin Qi, but Origin Qi had been cut off ten thousand years ago. In the original novel, there were two ways to break through to Dou God.
One was to cultivate into an Emperor with the Ancient Emperor Pill, and the other was to become an Emperor with Heavenly异火.
The Calamity Poison Body could upgrade infinitely as long as there was poison. So, if she could devour enough poison, could she break through to Emperor Realm without needing Origin Qi?
The thought made her incredibly excited. She wondered what good fortune had led her to this other world.
As a transmigrator in another world, how could she not go to the mountaintop to see what the view from the peak was like?
"But how do I get a Storage Ring?"
Xiao Yi Xian's face was filled with melancholy as she slumped onto the dining table. Her long purple hair quietly slid from her shoulders, revealing her delicate ears.
