Little Fairy Doctor's Talent

"Are you mixing poison?"

Wu Changqing dabbed a finger into the medicinal powder on the table and tasted it.

"Teacher, don't!" Little Fairy Doctor jumped in fright, but it was already too late to stop Wu Changqing.

She had mixed this powder according to the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture, and even she was not entirely sure of its exact toxicity. What if Wu Changqing accidentally got poisoned?

"Don't worry. I'm not even afraid of your Woeful Poison Body, so why would I fear such a little poison?" Wu Changqing said with a smile.

He was practically immune to all poisons. Even deadly toxins could be directly refined away.

Still, Little Fairy Doctor's instinctive concern showed that he was at least a passing teacher.

If he were not, his disciple might have tried to take the chance to poison her teacher to death.

"I was just worried about you, Teacher... Better safe than sorry."

Little Fairy Doctor knew he was immune to poison, but he still should not taste it so directly. It was far too frightening.

What if something went wrong?

She did not want to bear the charge of "poisoning her teacher."

"How have things been at the Alchemy Pavilion lately? Has it been tiring?" Wu Changqing asked as he sat down beside her.

Little Fairy Doctor's room was filled with an elegant medicinal fragrance, along with the faint scent unique to a young girl. It was refreshing and soothing.

"Not at all. Elder Yun He treats me very well, and organizing medicinal ingredients is something that makes me happy. How could I find it tiring?" A hint of delight appeared on her face. Clearly, she had been enjoying her time at the Alchemy Pavilion.

For someone who already loved medicinal ingredients, this kind of work did not feel difficult in the slightest.

Being able to handle so many high-grade and rare medicinal ingredients every day made her very happy.

"That's good. If you ever feel tired, or if someone at the Alchemy Pavilion bullies you, make sure to tell me. Don't suffer in silence without knowing how to complain, understand?" Wu Changqing said.

His only concern was that Little Fairy Doctor might be excluded by the people of the Alchemy Pavilion.

After all, she was not a true alchemist, only a physician.

In the eyes of alchemists, physicians were considered inferior.

Little Fairy Doctor shook her head. "No, they all treat me very well."

She was not only a physician, but also Wu Changqing's disciple.

Even if they did not respect her, they had to respect her teacher. No one in the Misty Cloud Sect was foolish enough to bully Little Fairy Doctor.

Besides, Little Fairy Doctor was so beautiful that ordinary people did not even have enough time to curry favor with her. How could they bear to bully her?

"That's good. How has your cultivation been these past few days? What is your current level?" Wu Changqing asked again.

"Teacher, I'm already a two-star Dou Zhe!" Little Fairy Doctor suddenly said with a touch of pride.

"So fast? That's amazing!"

When Wu Changqing had brought her back, she had not even officially begun cultivating.

Yet after only a month, she had already reached the level of a two-star Dou Zhe.

That was incredibly fast!

It had to be said that the Woeful Poison Body's innate talent was truly powerful. As long as one knew how to accelerate cultivation, they could leave people their age far behind.

Little Fairy Doctor was delighted to receive Wu Changqing's praise.

"Are you planning to mix the poisons recorded in the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture now? Go on, let me see your method of making medicine," Wu Changqing said.

"Alright."

Little Fairy Doctor sat down again and began refining the medicinal ingredients and mixing the powder.

She methodically refined one poisonous herb after another into powder, her movements skillful and practiced.

A strand of hair fell across her forehead, yet it did not affect her technique in the slightest.

Wu Changqing watched quietly from the side.

To be honest, he found medicine-making techniques rather boring, and he did not really understand them.

After all, he was not an alchemist and had barely had any contact with alchemy.

A thought suddenly crossed Wu Changqing's mind.

His Sword Furnace talent could refine everything. Could it perhaps be used for alchemy as well?

The essence of alchemy was actually refining various medicinal ingredients together before condensing them into a pill.

He could try it when he had the time...

Little Fairy Doctor was fully focused, her gaze unwavering, as though alchemy was the only thing in her eyes at that moment.

That look of utter concentration was very captivating.

When people were serious about what they did, they often possessed a unique charm, whether they were men or women.

Compared to watching her refine medicinal ingredients, Wu Changqing found Little Fairy Doctor's beauty much more pleasing to the eye.

The girl was in the prime of her youth, with delicate, fair skin free of the slightest flaw.

Unlike Yun Yun, Little Fairy Doctor possessed more of an innocent, budding beauty, like a flower just beginning to bloom.

Before long, Little Fairy Doctor finished mixing the poison.

When she looked up, she noticed that Wu Changqing's gaze was not on the medicinal ingredients.

Teacher... is he looking at me?

Her cheeks could not help but grow warm.

Although she had acknowledged Wu Changqing as her teacher, he looked only slightly older than her, not like some old man.

Moreover, Wu Changqing was handsome and dashing. Quite a few female disciples in the sect had more or less developed feelings for him.

Little Fairy Doctor lowered her eyes and softly said, "Teacher, this poison has been prepared."

Her words brought Wu Changqing back to his senses.

"Ahem. Alright. Are you planning to take it?"

Little Fairy Doctor nodded.

Wu Changqing had told her to face her Woeful Poison Body properly, to master and make use of it rather than let it control her life.

So she had also begun trying to control her Woeful Poison Body.

"Then take it. I'll keep watch here," Wu Changqing said.

Little Fairy Doctor was still unfamiliar with the Woeful Poison Body, so it was best to be extra careful.

With him there, Little Fairy Doctor felt much more at ease.

Then, she took the prepared poison bit by bit, carefully sensing the process of the poison transforming into Dou Qi within her body.

The Woeful Poison Body took effect, and wisps of ashen gray poison gas began to seep from her body.

But this time, Little Fairy Doctor did not lose control and faint. Instead, she remained conscious. A full half hour later, the Calamity Poison Gas around her body finally receded.

At that very moment, Little Fairy Doctor's cultivation broke through from a two-star Dou Zhe to a five-star Dou Zhe!

"Teacher, I broke through!" She was beside herself with excitement, her heart brimming with joy.

Wu Changqing nodded in satisfaction. "It seems the poison you mixed is quite potent."

The Seven-Colored Poison Scripture recorded nothing but highly toxic poisons, so naturally, their effects were fierce.

"Keep working hard and strive to break through to Dou Shi soon!" Wu Changqing said.

"Mhm, I'll definitely work hard!" Little Fairy Doctor nodded firmly.

She now found cultivation rather interesting as well.

Before, she had felt that she possessed no talent for cultivation, so she had devoted most of her interest to medicinal ingredients.

Now that she had begun cultivating, this clear sensation of constantly growing stronger was also quite addictive.

"It's getting late. Don't stay up working so long. Get some rest early," Wu Changqing said. He reached out and patted her head before standing and leaving the room.

Little Fairy Doctor watched him go. Only after he had left did she reluctantly close the door, tidy up the things on the table, and rest.
