In Dou Qi Continent, One Talent Trait a Day

Only when the Sealing Technique was finally complete did she finally lose the strength to hold on, gasping for breath as her delicate body helplessly tilted to the side.

Xu Qi reacted swiftly and hurriedly gathered her into his arms, soothing her gently.

"Alright, alright. It's okay now."

From beginning to end, Xiao Yi Xian had not cried out in pain even once. She had silently endured all the suffering.

Her little face was deathly pale, making her look utterly pitiful.

When Xu Qi's palm touched her smooth skin, he found it already soaked with cold sweat.

"It's done. Everything's done."

His heart ached for her. He pulled over a dress from the side and draped it around her, comforting her softly.

Nearly half an hour passed before Xiao Yi Xian's breathing became less labored and some color returned to her pale lips.

"Xu Qi... thank you."

She spoke weakly, her voice somewhat hoarse.

"Why are you being so polite with me? As long as I can help you seal the Calamity Poison Body, everything is worth it."

The Five Elements Seal worked even better than Xu Qi had expected, perfectly sealing away the spreading poisonous aura.

But it was only temporary.

Xiao Yi Xian's Calamity Poison Body had only just begun to erupt. It was still far from truly awakening.

And because Xu Qi's current strength was limited, his Five Elements Seal could only hold it back for a period of time.

Given enough time, the Calamity Poison Body could still erupt again.

"...Aren't you afraid?"

Lying in Xu Qi's arms, Xiao Yi Xian looked up at his face with weary eyes and asked softly.

She knew that she possessed the Calamity Poison Body.

It was a constitution that brought calamity upon herself and others, something she could never escape.

When she had first learned of it, Xiao Yi Xian had even fallen into despair.

She did not know how she would face the future...

This eruption had caught her completely off guard.

In truth, when it first began, she had still been conscious.

She had been terrified—afraid that she would not survive, and even more afraid that she would drag Xu Qi down with her.

But before she could warn him, she had completely lost consciousness.

It was only when Xu Qi used the Sealing Technique that she woke up.

Moreover, Xu Qi's Sealing Technique had actually helped her seal the Calamity Poison Body, allowing her to see hope for the first time.

"Don't celebrate too soon. My Sealing Technique can only suppress it temporarily; it can't truly resolve the root of the problem. We still need to find a way to deal with the Calamity Poison Body at its source," Xu Qi had to tell her the truth.

Xiao Yi Xian smiled gently and said softly,

"It's alright. If it can be sealed for one day, then that's one more day..."
