Chapter 12: Xiao Yi Xian
One night passed.
"Hu..." Su Yun woke up from his cultivation.
He had reached the level of a Nine Star Dou Practitioner two months ago.
During this time of cultivation, the Dou Qi within his body was abundant, reaching its peak and no longer capable of growth.
Apparently, after these two months of cultivation, he could now break through to become a Dou Master!
Su Yun got up, stretched his muscles, and prepared to return to Qing Shan Town.
The time for intense battles with magical beasts has come to an end, and breaking through to Dou Master is now the top priority.
There's no need to stay in the Beast Mountain Range any longer.
Su Yun walked out of the cave and headed towards Qing Shan Town.
There is a considerable distance between the outskirts of the mountains and Qing Shan Town. After two hours of walking, Su Yun was about to leave the mountain range.
"Ah..."
"Hmm?"
Su Yun stopped in his tracks.
Not far ahead, three first-grade Bone-Eating Wolves were glaring at a little girl.
The three Bone-Eating Wolves bared their teeth, sticking out their blood-red tongues, and their eyes emitted a green light.
The little girl's face revealed despair, closing her eyes tightly, tears wetting her clothes.
Without choosing to stand idly by, the girl, only around nine years old, emitted almost no Dou Qi fluctuations.
In the Dou Qi Continent, the weak are prey to the strong, and kind-hearted people do not live long.
However, it's just a little child. Occasionally, with a burst of kindness, one might save them when they encounter them.
Su Yun didn't hesitate. He retrieved his previous spoils from the system space.
Holding the Azure Edge, he swung the long sword.
Frozen Jade Shards!
Three blue sword energies, carrying a chill, whizzed through the air towards the Bone-Eating Wolves.
Sensing the danger, the Bone-Eating Wolves howled and leaped away.
But the sword energies were faster than them.
The sword energies entered their bodies, causing a layer of frost to appear on their fur.
"Howl..."
Emitting a mournful cry, struggling on the ground, they couldn't survive a single chapter.
Su Yun sheathed his sword and didn't pay attention to the girl. He continued on the path towards Qing Shan Town.
They were strangers in life, and saving her was the limit of what he could do.
The girl on the side widened her eyes, stunned by the scene in front of her.
As soon as Su Yun sheathed his sword, a pendant appeared on his leg.
Su Yun frowned, looking at the pitiful appearance of the girl, a slight feeling of sympathy arose in his heart.
But it was quickly suppressed.
He doesn't have the leisure now, where could he bring along a burden?
Su Yun crouched down, speaking softly.
"Little sister, where are your family members?"
The girl's eyes, filled with teardrops, choked up. "I'm an orphan. I used to live in a small village. When I was three years old, everyone in the village died, and my mom died there too. I'm the only one left."
Su Yun fell silent.
In the Dou Qi Continent, there are many acts of revenge, and killers are not rare.
In his view, the village where the little girl used to live might have encountered a killer.
Su Yun subconsciously used the scanning function to scan the girl.
"Scan."
"Ding, scan successful."
Name: Mu Lingxian
Gender: Female
Cultivation: None
Physique: Woeful Poison Body
Attribute: Poison
Technique: None
Combat Skill: None
Items: None
Su Yun raised an eyebrow.
The physique section, not shown on the previous panel, appeared now - Woeful Poison Body!
A name flashed through Su Yun's mind - Xiao Yi Xian!
The world is indeed small.
Su Yun overturned his assumption that the village where the little girl stayed had encountered a killer.
Knowing the identity of the little girl, how could he not know the truth of the matter?
The physique section, not displayed on the previous panel, appeared - Woeful Poison Body! Su Yun's mind flashed with a name: Xiao Yi Xian!
The world is indeed small.
Su Yun overturned his assumption that the village where Xiao Yi Xian stayed had encountered a killer.
Knowing the identity of Xiao Yi Xian, how could he not know the truth of the matter?
This still-young girl didn't know yet that all the lives in the village, including her mother, perished due to her awakened poison body...
"Big brother, can you take me in?"
Just when Su Yun's thoughts were racing, Xiao Yi Xian's voice echoed in his ears.
Xiao Yi Xian tightened her hands around Su Yun's leg, afraid that he might disappear.
Listening to Xiao Yi Xian's words, Su Yun remained calm on the surface, but internally, he exclaimed.
How fortunate!
Su Yun didn't immediately answer Xiao Yi Xian's question. Instead, in her anxious eyes, he embraced her.
"If you don't mind, you can stay with me from now on."
Two days later, in the city of Wu Tan.
Su Yun chose not to stay in Qing Shan Town with Xiao Yi Xian.
He was about to break through to become a Dou Master.
After reaching the Dou Master level, the restrictions on crafting first-grade pills, imposed by his current cultivation level, would disappear.
In the original work, Yan Xiao, disguised as a Rock Owl, participated in the Alchemist Grand Meeting of the Jia Ma Empire as a Dou Master and successfully crafted the Three-Lines Green Spirit Pill.
Liu Ling and Yao Yue also crafted fourth-grade pills. It shows that after becoming a Dou Master, the benefits for alchemy are immense.
With all the memories of Yao Lao, once he broke through to the Dou Master realm, the identity of a fourth-grade alchemist was not far away.
Is this the place where Big Brother lives?
Holding hands with the still-young Xiao Yi Xian, Su Yun led her into the small house he used to live in.
Xiao Yi Xian was the name Su Yun gave her when they first met, a name meant to forget the past sorrows and welcome a new future.
Xiao Yi Xian nodded solemnly, hoping that the tragic fate of the entire village, including her mother, wouldn't happen again.
She hoped Big Brother would live a healthy and long life, free from illness and disaster.
At that time, Su Yun felt delighted to hear her words on the surface but was actually quite bitter inside.
After all, on the Dou Qi Continent, once one reached the Dou Zong realm, lifespans were counted in thousands...
Su Yun looked at the dusty little house, feeling a bit emotional.
In this life, his parents were good to him, but unfortunately, he was just a child at the time and couldn't do anything.
On the Dou Qi Continent, where souls dissipate, there's no method to resurrect a loved one.
Su Yun put away his thoughts and hoped they would live happily in the next life.
Su Yun tidied up the house a bit, set up a small bed for Xiao Yi Xian.
"Xian'er, have you ever practiced cultivation before?"
Xiao Yi Xian blinked and shook her head.
Su Yun understood. It seems the village where Xiao Yi Xian used to live was somewhat remote, and her parents didn't prioritize cultivation.
As for not knowing the cultivation method for the Dou Qi stage, Su Yun didn't consider it. The cultivation method for the Dou Qi stage is well-known on the continent, and this possibility is unlikely.
Seeing the child is still young, Su Yun didn't want her to start cultivating too early. The parents of Xiao Yi Xian probably didn't emphasize the practice method, and Su Yun believed they didn't have high expectations for the child's aptitude. It's understandable to delay her cultivation.
"If that's the case, today I'll teach you the cultivation method for the Dou Qi stage."
Xiao Yi Xian cutely nodded.
She listens to Big Brother; Xiao Yi Xian is obedient.
Then Su Yun explained the method to Xiao Yi Xian.
Regarding Xiao Yi Xian's cultivation, he had already considered it these past two days.
Although he wanted Xiao Yi Xian to start practicing, Su Yun didn't plan to let her use Foundation Building Spirit Liquid for cultivation immediately.
He was aware of the cultivation speed of the Woeful Poison Body. He must help Xiao Yi Xian grow before her poison body erupts. Obtaining three kinds of Hevanly Flames, along with a series of materials, is crucial; otherwise, it will be too late when the poison body erupts.
