First Meeting with Xiao Yi Xian

Xiao Ni's rather indifferent words reached everyone's ears, and the atmosphere grew even quieter. Only after a long while did a young girl walk up behind Xiao Ni.

"Are you sure you want to go to the Wolf Head Mercenary Group?" The girl's voice came from behind them. Xiao Ni and Xiao Xun'er turned around and saw a girl in a white dress, her face carrying a faint smile.

The girl was not breathtakingly beautiful, but she was certainly a rare beauty. A green sash encircled her slender willow waist, making her tiny waist seem even more alluring.

"Who are you?" Although he had already guessed the girl's identity, Xiao Ni still frowned and asked.

He viewed this world from a godlike perspective, so he could recognize many people at a glance. But this was their first meeting. If he directly spoke Xiao Yi Xian's name, it would only make her more wary of him. After all, his face was unfamiliar throughout Qing Mountain Town.

"My name is Xiao Yi Xian. I'm a physician," Xiao Yi Xian said with a faint smile.

She had never had a favorable impression of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group. She felt that those people were hypocritical, especially Mu Li. So when she saw Mu Li get killed, she had actually given Xiao Ni a silent thumbs-up in her heart.

Mu Li appeared kind on the surface, but he had often stolen other people's belongings. Almost everyone in Qing Mountain Town knew that. She occasionally formed temporary mercenary teams with Mu Li to enter the Magic Beast Mountain Range only because she needed to find medicinal herbs.

"My name is Xiao Ni. I'm an Alchemist." Xiao Ni revealed the same calm smile. Everyone was shocked by his words, and Xiao Yi Xian even covered her mouth in surprise.

No wonder Xiao Ni had dared to blast Mu Li to death in the street. He was actually an Alchemist. That explained everything.

Alchemists were the most prestigious profession on the Battle Qi Continent. Their influence was terrifyingly immense. Even the lowest First-Rank Alchemist was not someone a mere Wolf Head Mercenary Group could afford to provoke. This time, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group was likely truly doomed.

"Brother Xiao Ni, you hid yourself well." Xiao Xun'er was briefly startled before leaning close to Xiao Ni's ear and whispering in a slightly reproachful tone.

That was what she thought. Brother Xiao Ni's soul strength had already reached the Spirit Realm, and his teacher was a Fourth-Rank Alchemist. How could Brother Xiao Ni possibly not know alchemy?

"Uh..." Noticing Xiao Xun'er's little sulk, Xiao Ni coughed awkwardly twice before smiling. "You don't have to look at me like that. If any of you want to become Alchemists, I can teach you alchemy."

He had actually said that for Xiao Yi Xian's sake. He knew that Xiao Yi Xian's greatest dream was to become an Alchemist. Unfortunately, she lacked the qualifications, and her constitution was too unusual. In the end, she could only walk the path of a Poison Master.

If he could help Xiao Yi Xian fulfill her wish of becoming an Alchemist, she would not have to live in such pain.

"Xun'er doesn't have that talent. You should teach someone else." Xiao Xun'er pouted and directly turned to the side.

"I appreciate your kindness, but becoming an Alchemist is nothing more than an impossible dream to me." A bitter smile appeared on Xiao Yi Xian's lips, drawing Xiao Xun'er's attention.

It seemed Xiao Yi Xian truly wanted to become an Alchemist, but she simply did not meet the requirements.

Thinking this, a flash of golden light passed through Xiao Xun'er's eyes as she scanned Xiao Yi Xian's body.

"Fine." Xiao Ni spread his hands, then changed the subject. "Since I won't get the chance to show off, please lead us to the Wolf Head Mercenary Group."

"Mu She isn't at the Wolf Head Mercenary Group right now. He went to the Magic Beast Mountain Range," Xiao Yi Xian said calmly.

"Is that so? Then I'll destroy his lair first, then go to the Magic Beast Mountain Range to find him." Xiao Ni signaled for Xiao Yi Xian to lead the way, an evil smile curling at the corner of his lips.

"Do you have some grudge against the Wolf Head Mercenary Group? Don't tell me you simply dislike them, or that you want to grow through bloody battles or something." The three walked side by side as Xiao Yi Xian tried to ask.

The Wolf Head Mercenary Group had always been the dominant force around Qing Mountain Town. No one had ever dared to clash with them openly in the streets, much less directly kill the young leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group. Xiao Ni was certainly arrogant. Hopefully, after meeting Mu She and Gan Mu, he could remain as tough as he was now.

"A mere Wolf Head Mercenary Group isn't enough to force me into a bloody battle. I simply want to vent someone's anger for an elder." Xiao Ni clasped both hands behind his head and spoke with a slightly roguish air.

Mu She was only a Two-Star Dou Master. To the current him, Mu She was less than nothing. How could there possibly be any bloody battle?

In truth, he had already planned to wipe the Wolf Head Mercenary Group out of Qing Mountain Town while traveling toward the Magic Beast Mountain Range. He simply had not expected to act so soon. Mu Li could only blame himself for appearing too early.

"I didn't expect you to be so loyal." Xiao Yi Xian gained a bit more appreciation for Xiao Ni, while also becoming somewhat curious about the strength of Xiao Ni and Xiao Xun'er.

She absolutely did not believe Xiao Ni's strength was merely around that of a Seven-Star Dou Practitioner. Perhaps Xiao Ni had already reached the peak of the Eight-Star level, or even the Nine-Star level. Moreover, Xiao Ni's Black Ruler had actually crushed Mu Li and broken one of his arms. That Black Ruler was definitely extraordinary.

"I've always been loyal to my friends. If you want to experience it, you can try being my friend." Xiao Ni's eyes held a smile, and his tone was gentle and sincere.

Xiao Yi Xian was also one of his favorite characters. He knew that because of her constitution, Xiao Yi Xian always deliberately kept her distance from others. Since he had encountered her today, he naturally wanted to comfort her.

Hearing Xiao Ni's words, Xiao Yi Xian froze slightly before saying faintly, "You may regret becoming my friend."

Her constitution did not deserve friends. Even if someone truly wished to be friends with her, they would regret it someday.

"My soul perception is very strong, so I know your constitution seems somewhat unusual. Not only can I improve your constitution, I can also help you become an Alchemist." Xiao Ni leaned closer to Xiao Yi Xian's ear and spoke softly.

Seeing Xiao Ni's action, Xiao Xun'er's willow brows could not help furrowing.

Brother Xiao Ni was actually whispering to someone else right in front of her. What was there that she could not hear?

"You..." Xiao Yi Xian stared at Xiao Ni with widened eyes, and her curiosity toward him grew even stronger.

"You don't need to be so surprised. I may not be able to solve your problem, but I definitely have the ability to make you an Alchemist." Xiao Ni stood with his back straight and his hands behind him. Beneath his lazy expression was the bearing of an expert.

Others might not be able to make someone become both a Poison Master and an Alchemist, but he could. That was what made him stronger than others. Since he had come to this world, he would do everything in his power to rewrite Xiao Yi Xian's fate. Wasn't it merely dual fire and wood attributes? For Xiao Yi Xian, who possessed the Woeful Poison Body, that was hardly difficult.

"So Brother Xiao Ni sensed that Xiao Yi Xian's constitution was unusual." Xiao Xun'er's brows relaxed, and her mood brightened somewhat.

Brother Xiao Ni really was something else. Couldn't he have found somewhere private to discuss this? In any case, she had also noticed that there were lingering toxins within Xiao Yi Xian's body, and there seemed to be a seven-colored line around her lower abdomen.
