Little Fairy Doctor: Isn't This Too Fast?

After perfunctorily dealing with Xiao Zhan, Xiao Li snuck over to Little Fairy Doctor's courtyard.

Although he would come of age tomorrow, it was a pity that, as things stood, Xiao Li was still technically involved in puppy love.

"Little Fairy Doctor, I'm here." Watching the girl in the courtyard, a smile tugged at the corners of Xiao Li's mouth, but the moment he remembered she was only twelve, a strange feeling uncontrollably rose in his heart.

He couldn't really be blamed for his hesitation; the problem was that twelve was an age where no normal man would feel any desire.

Xiao Li sighed. Looking at the five-foot-tall Little Fairy Doctor, he decided to just treat it like playing a loli-raising game.

"Brother Xiao Li." Little Fairy Doctor gave a sweet smile. Ever since she started dating Xiao Li, the smiles on this little girl's face had become more and more frequent.

Watching the radiant Little Fairy Doctor, Xiao Li remembered the serious business he had come for and straightened his expression.

"I came to find you today because there's something important. Come, let's go inside to talk," Xiao Li said.

"Huh?" Little Fairy Doctor was stunned, and a blush immediately rose to her face. "Isn't it... too fast? Didn't you say you'd wait for me to grow up..."

Xiao Li's expression was solemn. "The sooner we handle this, the better. It can't be delayed."

Little Fairy Doctor gritted her teeth. Thinking that she had already become a Dou Zhe and her physical constitution should be decent, she said, "Alright, Brother Xiao Li. You... you have to be gentle."

Xiao Li finally realized something was wrong. It turned out they hadn't been on the same page at all.

He tapped the little girl on the head and said, between laughter and tears, "Stop letting your imagination run wild. It's serious business. I won't do that kind of thing until you're of age."

Little Fairy Doctor nodded, her face burning with shame. Cursing herself for being an idiot, she quickly followed Xiao Li.

Inside the room, Little Fairy Doctor sat upright. She had realized that whatever Xiao Li wanted to talk about must be very important; otherwise, he wouldn't be so grave.

Looking at the sweet girl before him, Xiao Li felt his throat go dry, unsure of how to begin. "Little Fairy Doctor, do you know about your constitution?"

Xiao Li's words were like a sharp sword, instantly shattering all of Little Fairy Doctor's fantasies. Her lips trembled, and her face turned pale. "Brother Xiao Li, you... you know."

Xiao Li nodded. "Your constitution should be the Woeful Poison Body. On the Dou Qi Continent, there is an extremely unique constitution known as the Woeful Poison Body. The appearance of this body basically brings nothing but disaster."

Little Fairy Doctor's body trembled uncontrollably. After causing the death of her entire village at the age of three, she had known her constitution was different, but she only understood that her body was unusual—she had no idea it was the Woeful Poison Body.

"Brother Xiao Li, will you leave me?"

Xiao Li was startled, his heart feeling as if it had been struck hard by something. "Of course not. Besides, I have already found a way to treat it."

The tears at the corners of Little Fairy Doctor's eyes froze, and a look of wild joy surged onto her cheeks. "Really? You really won't leave me!"

Pulling the girl who had thrown herself into his arms close, Xiao Li gave a helpless, bitter smile. "The point is that I found a solution, isn't it?"

"You not abandoning me is the best news of all," Little Fairy Doctor said with a doting smile.

"Fine, fine, fine. Now let me finish," Xiao Li said, laughing despite himself, his heart softening.

Little Fairy Doctor sat obediently on Xiao Li's lap, tears still hanging on her face.

Xiao Li gently wiped the tears from her face and said softly.

"The cultivation method for the Woeful Poison Body is to consume poison. As long as you ingest poison, your Woeful Poison Body will convert the toxic power contained within it into a very special type of Poison Dou Qi through a strange process. The more virulent the poison, the more beneficial it is for your strength. Therefore, you don't need to cultivate arduously; you only need to consume poison continuously to rapidly increase your strength."

Before Little Fairy Doctor could even be happy, Xiao Li poured a bucket of cold water on her.

"Of course, there is nothing perfectly flawless in this world. Although the Woeful Poison Body allows you to increase your strength rapidly by consuming poison, poison is, after all, still poison. While you can rely on the Woeful Poison Body to suppress the toxins from devouring your body, as you consume more and more poison in the future—to the point where even the Woeful Poison Body can no longer suppress the Poison Dou Qi within you—the pain of ten thousand poisons devouring your body will cause you to die slowly in the most agonizing torment."

A trace of fear appeared on Little Fairy Doctor's face, and she subconsciously shrank into Xiao Li's arms.

Xiao Li rubbed her head with pity and continued, "There is a solution, which involves using three types of Heavenly Flames along with some materials."

This was manageable; in the future, Xiao Yan could treat her. However, during the treatment process, Little Fairy Doctor's clothes would be completely destroyed. Now that she had promised her life to him, how could Xiao Li endure that, even if Xiao Yan was his own younger brother?

Therefore, Xiao Li thought of other solutions. For instance, if he could obtain a Strange Lightning with effects similar to a Heavenly Flame, that should also work.

Secondly, he could find the Nether Poison Flame among the Heavenly Flames. This flame should be very suitable for her and might just work. Moreover, aside from the Void Devouring Flame and the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, there were likely multiple instances of other Heavenly Flames, so it wouldn't hinder Xiao Yan from becoming an Emperor.

As for the third option, it was the simplest: find her a garment that couldn't be burned by Heavenly Flames. But finding something that could withstand a Heavenly Flame... in the original story, there really weren't many such items. Xiao Li figured he might have better luck finding Strange Lightning than such a garment.

Perhaps due to a man's possessiveness, he preferred to rely on himself to treat her.

He explained these methods to her, detailing the probabilities—naturally omitting Xiao Yan's future—and waited patiently for her reply.

Little Fairy Doctor snuggled in his arms. "As long as you stay by my side, that's enough."

Xiao Li was speechless. How did she become so love-struck at such a young age? He didn't think he had done anything special; why did she like him so much?

Sure enough, a man trying every possible way to pursue a girl would likely end up with nothing, while things revealed unintentionally were what truly attracted them.

"Alright, then we'll see what I can find," Xiao Li shrugged. For the sake of her life, he could set aside his bit of possessiveness.

Little Fairy Doctor nodded vigorously, then tilted her head to look at him. "Brother Xiao Li, kiss me."

Xiao Li's mouth twitched, and he refused flatly. "No. How old are you? I haven't even mentioned what happened the other day, and you're already asking for more? You're not being reserved at all."

Little Fairy Doctor pouted. "Then why were you licking your lips when you left that day? Weren't you savoring it?"

Black lines slid down Xiao Li's forehead. "You little brat, who taught you all this?"

Little Fairy Doctor put her hands on her hips, her cute, loli-like appearance making it impossible for Xiao Li to stay angry.

"Xun Er. She said that doing this would keep you firmly in the palm of my hand."

"Xun Er..." Xiao Li gritted his teeth. That wretched Xun Er, actually turning his originally cute Little Fairy Doctor into this! More importantly, she was teaching her way too early. If she kept acting like this for the next few years...

Looking at her increasingly mature figure, Xiao Li clutched his forehead. His bottom line was going to have to drop.

"Oh, right, Brother Xiao Li, stop calling me Little Fairy Doctor all the time."

"Then what should I call you?"

"Call me Xian Er." Little Fairy Doctor lowered her head, her expression shy. Such an intimate address was more fitting for their relationship; Xun Er was right after all.

"Alright," Xiao Li paused, a smile spreading across his face. "Xian Er."
