Yun Yun: Queen Medusa, Don't Look at Me Like That

After the idle chat ended, Xiao Ting continued cultivating under Yao Lao's guidance.

Though growing stronger through the Notes was the great path, he did not mind supplementing it with lesser paths.

After a day of training, he returned to the small courtyard where he lived and began recording.

[As clever as I am, I told Yao Lao about Xiao Yi Xian and the Woeful Poison Body, letting the Poison Pill Method see the light of day first.]

[Whether or not Xun'er can obtain a method from the Gu Clan to help Xiao Yi Xian, I have a workable solution here.]

[If the Perfect Talent Control Method cannot be used, then Xun'er can help arrange the Poison Pill Method for Xiao Yi Xian.]

[Next, I must cultivate diligently and strive to arrange the best possible method for Xiao Yi Xian.]

"Indeed, he is clever. As expected of Brother Xiao Ting." Xun'er gave Xiao Yi Xian a gentle smile. "In that case, Sister Xiao Yi Xian, you can be completely at ease now."

"I was already completely at ease." Xiao Yi Xian's beautiful eyes shone as she clenched her fists. "I feel that as long as Xiao Ting writes my name every day, I will one day perfectly control the Woeful Poison Body even without the Poison Pill Method or that Perfect Control Method."

Xun'er was perceptive and intelligent. Upon hearing this, she immediately guessed, "A blessing?"

"Mm." Xiao Yi Xian's joy was undisguised. "Though it is only a trace, I can clearly feel my control over the toxins in my body increasing."

"As long as this improvement continues, one day I will be able to perfectly control the toxins in my body."

Perfect Awakening allowed her to perfectly control her desire to consume poison.

Perfectly controlling the toxins in her body would ensure that she no longer had to fear the Woeful Poison Body erupting one day, causing ten thousand poisons to devour her heart and her body to explode.

The road ahead was already bright. She only needed to wander before Xiao Ting every day.

"Congratulations, Sister Xiao Yi Xian." Xun'er was sincerely happy for Xiao Yi Xian.

She was not actually surprised by the "blessing" Xiao Yi Xian had received.

That was because her own progress in refining and controlling the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame was also improving.

In the blink of an eye, it was past midnight once again.

Within the Chu Yun Empire, Medusa and Yun Yun, who were meditating and cultivating in a cave, both stirred.

A Plane Blessing appeared in Queen Medusa's mind.

[You have received a Plane Blessing. The evolution progress of your companion serpent magical beast, the Purple Nether Flame Snake, into the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python has increased.]

"This blessing can directly help me evolve my soul as well." Medusa's heart burned with excitement.

Did this not mean that she did not need to take the risky approach of using a Heavenly Flame to break through? As long as she found a way to make Xiao Ting write her name in the Notes more often, she would eventually complete her evolution.

[Soul Hall Soul Envoy...]

Information appeared in Yun Yun's mind that a Soul Envoy would harvest souls somewhere within the Chu Yun Empire tomorrow.

"Good news." Yun Yun was secretly delighted.

After all, they were within an empire. Even with Queen Medusa's assistance, she had to act with extreme caution.

Under such circumstances, investigating the whereabouts of a Soul Hall Soul Envoy was a severe test of luck.

The Plane Blessing had told her the whereabouts of one Soul Envoy. She could follow the trail and find more.

Dealing with one would allow her to open the situation.

"Half a month." Medusa suddenly spoke. "Yun Yun, I will only give you half a month."

"If you cannot hunt enough Soul Hall Soul Envoys, I will not accompany you any longer."

She had originally been persuaded by Yun Yun and intended to cooperate with her.

However, the benefits brought by the Plane Blessing had made her decide to change strategies.

"Fine."

Yun Yun did not ask why Medusa had suddenly changed her mind. She knew without thinking that it was related to the Plane Blessing.

"Half a month is enough!"

Yet reality nearly slapped Yun Yun across the face.

After half a month, with Queen Medusa's help, she had only taken down two Soul Envoys.

They had encountered four in total, but two had chosen to self-destruct.

"Tomorrow, I will leave."

Atop a mountain peak, Medusa stood with her arms crossed, coldness on her peerlessly beautiful face.

Over the past half month, Xiao Ting had never mentioned her in the Notes again. He either recorded his own cultivation with Xiao Yan or daily interactions with Xiao Yi Xian and Xun'er.

In short, when he wrote about Xiao Yi Xian and Xun'er, it read like a romance story. When he wrote about himself and Xiao Yan, it read like a story of arduous cultivation.

One could imagine that Xiao Yi Xian and Xun'er had certainly gained greatly over the past half month.

"I understand. Thank you, Sister Medusa, for your help over the past half month." Helplessness flashed through Yun Yun's eyes, but she did not press the matter. Instead, she sincerely thanked Medusa. "If you ever need me, send me a voice transmission through the mark. As long as it does not require me to betray the Misty Cloud Sect, I will do everything in my power to help."

After spending half a month together, perhaps because they shared secrets and opportunities, the two had become friends.

At the very least, Medusa did not mind Yun Yun calling her "Sister."

"Mm." Medusa nodded arrogantly.

The next moment, her narrow eyes sharpened, and Yun Yun's expression changed as well.

The two shifted their attention to the Observation Copy of the Notes, delight appearing in both their eyes.

[Today's cultivation has ended.]

[After half a month of persistent observation and recording, my cultivation has steadily improved with the Notes' help.]

[I have cultivated the Thunder Flame Treasure Mirror to mastery, the Heaven Drawing Dragon Transformation Seal to mastery, and the Bagua Lightning Chasing Steps to perfection...]

[My soul realm has reached the peak of the Mid Mortal Realm, and my cultivation has reached Seven-Star Dou Shi.]

[Today, Xun'er returned the Flight Dou Technique to me. It was made using the wings and beast soul of a sixth-rank Amethyst Winged Lion King.]

[I specifically asked Xun'er whether it was the Amethyst Winged Lion King near Qingshan Town in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. She gave me an affirmative answer, so I observed a few seconds of silence for it.]

[Now the "plot" has been thrown into chaos. The butterfly effect caused by me has utterly wrecked it. The Amethyst Winged Lion King was an extremely important instance for Brother Yan's future development.]

[While Brother Yan was training in the Magical Beast Mountain Range, he happened upon Yun Yun negotiating with the Amethyst Winged Lion King. Yun Yun wanted to obtain Purple Cloud Crystal so that Pill King Gu He could refine pills for Nalan Yanran to rapidly increase her cultivation.]

[The Amethyst Winged Lion King truly lived up to its name as a lion king, demanding a Human Transformation Pill. After Yun Yun refused, she tried to seize it by force. The two fought fiercely, and Yun Yun ultimately lost. The Amethyst Winged Lion King even sealed her cultivation.]

Yun Yun: "..."

Feeling Queen Medusa's gaze, she blushed deeply.

"Speaking of seals..." Queen Medusa felt as though she had forgotten something.

However, she did not dwell on it. If she could forget it, it was not important.

[With her cultivation sealed, the Amethyst Winged Lion King also mobilized the surrounding magical beasts to search for her. Yun Yun had been doomed, but Brother Yan saved her.]

[When asked for her name, perhaps fearing embarrassment, she fabricated the false name "Yun Zhi."]

[Fortunately, she did not tell the truth. Otherwise, if Brother Yan had learned she was Nalan Yanran's teacher, it was hard to say what he would have done.]

[Yun Yun also asked Brother Yan his name. Being wary around a powerful female Dou Emperor, Brother Yan called himself "Yan Xiao."]

The women possessing the Observation Copy: "..."

Not bad. He had the vigilance needed to survive in the martial world.

If they had both given their real names, there would have been quite a show.

[With Brother Yan's help, Yun Yun escaped disaster.]

[As repayment, and because she admired the talent Brother Yan had displayed, Yun Yun said she could send Brother Yan to cultivate at the Misty Cloud Sect.]

The women: "..."

Medusa cast Yun Yun a mocking look.

Yun Yun: "..."
