Xian'er
"It seems the Xiao Clan still has many secrets we haven't discovered!" Xun Er muttered, then her little face fell.
My father also told me to retrieve the Tou She Ancient God Jade. How am I supposed to complete this task? Should I confront him directly?
If Xiao Zhan knew Xun Er's thoughts at this moment, he would definitely agree wholeheartedly. No problem, I'm just waiting for you to tell me.
"Miss, should we ask the Clan Leader to send some more powerful members over?" After a long while, Ling Ying asked cautiously.
Although his strength was enough to make him invincible in the Jia Ma Empire, it would be like lambs to the slaughter for the Xiao Clan. If the other party really had any bad intentions, neither he nor his young lady would be able to escape.
However, Xiao Zhan, the Xiao Clan Patriarch, is clearly an upright and powerful figure, and he also knows that the young lady has an extraordinary identity, so this possibility is not very high.
However, it's always good to plan ahead!
"No need." To Ling Ying's surprise, Xun Er refused his suggestion.
"Miss, why is this?" Ling Ying asked in confusion. Although he was just a servant and had no right to question, the situation was special and he could still raise some questions, especially when it concerned Xun Er's safety.
"What kind of person do you think the clan should send?" Xun Er glanced at Ling Ying, thinking, "How can this guy be so stupid?"
"Of course..." Ling Ying was about to say something, but in the end, she could only stammer. Right, who should they send? Dou Zong? Isn't that the same thing?
The Xiao Clan family also has quite a few Dou Zong experts, so unless we send more, it would be risky. But having too many people would not only make us more vulnerable, but could also cause unnecessary trouble. If it were to incur the Xiao Clan's wrath, it would contradict our original intentions.
Dou Zun? He needs to be at least a High Level Dou Zun, otherwise he won't be able to control Xiao Zhan, the Xiao Clan Patriarch.
But to expect a high-level Dou Zun expert to do nothing for more than ten years, just to stay in the Northwest Continent and fight wits and courage with a family hiding there, is there something wrong with his brain?
Furthermore, Xun Er had a hidden thought in her mind. If another powerful expert were sent, Xiao Yan Gege's situation would be exposed, so... she absolutely couldn't call for help.
But the mission still needs to be completed, and without the protection of a strong person, it will be much more difficult!
For a moment, Xun Er and Ling Ying were caught in a dilemma.
The next day, at the Xiao Clan.
At this moment, Xiao Han was staring intently at a little girl in white at Yi Huang's feet.
Perhaps due to malnutrition, her body was somewhat thin, but her timid eyes, which looked at her timidly, were still bright, and the way she tightly hugged Yi Huang's legs revealed her tension and unease.
"Why are you staring at her?" Yi Huang scolded Xiao Han reproachfully, looking at the little girl in white beside her with affection. Feeling her movements, her strong heart softened instantly.
"This is...?" Xiao Han ignored it, only saying somewhat absentmindedly, "The Woeful Poison Body!"
In Xiao Han's perception, the little girl in white had a lot of strange toxins left on her body, but she herself was completely unaffected.
"You noticed it too?" Yi Huang was taken aback, but then shook her head and smiled. "That's true. Your perception is much stronger than mine." Thinking of Xiao's soul realm, Yi Huang felt a little envious for a moment.
"How did you find her?" Xiao Han asked, frowning. The name of the Woeful Poison Body was renowned even in the Central Plains, but it was now almost completely extinct. In Xiao Han's memory, there was only that little doctor...
Um?!
Little Fairy Doctor? Xiao Han's pupils contracted. Judging from her age... it fits perfectly! Could it really be her? She was picked up by his wife like this?
"You mean Xian'er?" Thinking of this, Yi Huang felt a pang of heartache, but also a sense of relief. Luckily, she had met her; otherwise, how pitiful would the little one's life have been!
"I found Xian'er in a small village between the Magical Beast Mountain Range and the Xiao Clan. At the time, this little one's Woeful Poison Body seemed to have erupted. If I hadn't arrived in time, the entire village might have been wiped out..."
Yi Huang then recounted in detail the events leading up to her discovery of Xian'er, and the entire process of bringing her back.
To this, Xiao Han could only say, "Fate is unpredictable! Life is full of surprises!"
"So, you want to bring Xian'er back to the Langya Pavilion?" Xiao Han confirmed Yi Huang's thoughts once again. Hearing Yi Huang's tone, he made a slight guess.
Xiao Han was certain that this Xian'er was indeed the Little Fairy Doctor. Since Yi Huang had brought her back, Xiao Han wouldn't mention sending her away.
Otherwise, Yi Huang, now overflowing with maternal love, would definitely not let him off the hook. If she did, it would be uncertain whether he would even be allowed into the room again.
Moreover, in a sense, the talent of the Woeful Poison Body is a cheat code.
As long as one can successfully condense the Poison Pill and prevent the outbreak of the Woeful Poison Body, and there is enough poison, the Woeful Poison Body possessor has absolutely no concept of a cultivation bottleneck.
Moreover, each of them is a formidable fighter, capable of easily defeating opponents of higher levels.
Although the Poison Pill Method has been lost, Xiao Han knew very well that a certain unreliable old man happened to have it!
As long as the Woeful Poison Body can be suppressed for the next ten years or so, with the support of the entire Langya Pavilion, Xian'er's cultivation will surely be able to break through rapidly in a short period of time, and even surpassing her current disciple Xiao Wu would be no problem.
However, Xiao Han still wanted to be cheeky, so he said with a serious expression, "Huang'er, you should know what the Woeful Poison Body is, right?"
"This..." Yi Huang's face turned pale instantly. To some extent, as Alchemist, Yi Huang was even more aware of the terror of the Woeful Poison Body, which could truly easily slaughter cities and destroy countries.
If we really take Xian'er in, one day, when her cultivation reaches a relatively high level... her poisonous body will erupt in the Langya Pavilion, potentially killing a large number of the disciples in an instant.
To say the losses were devastating would be an understatement.
Just as Yi Huang was feeling troubled, she subconsciously looked at the little girl in her eyes who looked rather helpless but had not said a word.
Looking at the child at her feet, so dependent on her, she was torn. The child was so sensible it was heartbreaking, Yi Huang truly couldn't bear to let her wander around.
Finally, Yi Huang hardened her heart and gritted her teeth, saying, "Why don't you just seal Xian'er's constitution away!"
As Xiao Han's closest confidante, Yi Huang was intimately familiar with all of his abilities.
Xiao Han's cultivation technique contains a sealing technique. Anyone who is sealed will have their Dou Qi, bloodline, and other abilities rendered ineffective. Unless a more powerful external force is used to break the seal, they will be stuck as an ordinary person for the rest of their lives.
The Woeful Poison Body is also among those to be sealed, even though being unable to cultivate is a very painful thing in the Fierce Qi Continent.
However, compared to the irreversible destruction that would follow the outbreak of the Woeful Poison Body, this is already a very good result.
Moreover, Yi Huang believed that even if Xian'er could not cultivate, with the protection of the Langya Pavilion, she could eventually live a peaceful and happy life.
"It seems you've made up your mind?" Xiao Han asked somewhat seriously. Yi Huang's answer was a bit unexpected, but under the current circumstances, it was the most suitable solution.
