Chapter 67: Little Medic Immortal Activates the Calamity Poison Body

On the other side, Xiao Yan swallowed the Blood Lotus Pill, produced the Ice Spirit Cold Spring, and prepared to absorb the alien fire… (No filler)

Xiao family

Little Medic Immortal looked at the poison and the toxic‑attribute cultivation method in their hand, feeling rather uneasy.

Restraining the frequency of ingesting the poison will extend one's lifespan and delay the time when the toxic aura erupts.

But…

Little Medic Immortal recalled Xiao Li's busyness over the past two years; in those two years, he had hardly stayed at home for a full month. In contrast, she could only keep cowering under his wing, and up to now she was still striving to break through the Fighting Master rank.

Little Medic Immortal's gaze grew more resolute, "For Brother Xiao Li."

Raising a hand, the fierce poison entered her mouth; her complexion changed, she staggered back to the bed, closed her eyes, and fell into a coma.

After a long while, Little Medic Immortal slowly awoke, a hint of green flashing in her eyes, the toxic battle Qi silently circulating around her body, and she hurriedly drew it back into herself.

Little Medic Immortal felt secretly annoyed, nearly forgetting that the process of absorbing the poison also emitted deadly toxin; it seemed she would have to find a place without people in the future. The Xiao family is too dangerous; if Xun Er came looking for her, it wouldn't be good.

Feeling the peak strength of a fighter within her body, Little Medic Immortal's lingering unease settled, and a hint of joy appeared on her pretty face.

"Brother Xiao Li, wait for me; I will help you right away."

Recalling the words Xiao Li said before departing, Little Medic Immortal's fear dissipated, "Brother Xiao Li will definitely cure me."

Little Medic Immortal waved her pink fists, silently cheering herself on.

Outside the room, Xun Er set her hanging heart at ease, "Old Ling, the little immortal won't be in trouble, right?"

Ling Ying slightly bowed, "Miss, rest assured. According to the clan records, the early cultivation of the Calamity Poison Body proceeds smoothly; the later stage is when it erupts. For Miss Immortal to reach that realm, I think it will take at least ten years, and ten years should be enough for Xiao Li to resolve it."

Xun Er nodded, recalling that prodigy who was even more outstanding than Brother Xiao Yan.

Xiao Li, a sixteen‑year‑old Fighting Spirit, though Xun Er was reluctant to admit it, it was clear that even among the Ancient Clan, youngsters with eighth or ninth‑grade bloodlines were far inferior to Xiao Li.

Even my own god‑level bloodline is still out of reach.

"The Xiao clan truly is a marvelous family."

Ling Ying nodded in agreement; the Xiao clan ancestor Xiao Xuan proved this, as he alone once dominated the age, the top under the absolute Fighting Emperor.

In the house, Little Medic Immortal took a graceful step, planning to go out for a walk; the Calamity Poison Body also has a short‑term limit, and continuously absorbing poison would cause it to burst, so she needed to pause for a while.

She pushed open the door and saw Xun Er, smiling brightly; she thought to herself that luck was on her side, glad she hadn't hurt Xun Er.

"Xun Er, why are you here?" Little Medic Immortal asked curiously.

Xun Er smiled gently, "I came to take you to the market. How about it? I've prepared a lot of gold coins."

Xun Er shook the money pouch in her hand, the clink of a full sack of gold ringing crisply; Little Medic Immortal set aside her worries and smiled, agreeing to Xun Er's suggestion.

Ling Ying then stayed hidden, safeguarding his lady's safety.

…On the other side, with Yao Lao's help, Xiao Yan finally succeeded in subduing the Azure Lotus Earth‑core Fire, and his cultivation surged to the peak of Fighting Master.

Xiao Li glanced lightly, his meaning obvious: "Your Majesty the Queen, please."

Medusa gave him a sidelong glance and walked toward Xiao Yan on her own.

Yao Lao had already explained to Xiao Yan, and Xiao Yan did not object; as long as he could help his second brother, he was fine, even if it meant being alone with the snake man at the peak of the Fighting Emperor.

Of course, the above describes Xiao Yan's mental preparation; in reality…

Seeing Medusa, who beguiles all beings, approach, Xiao Yan even forgot that she was a Fighting Emperor‑level powerhouse, and an uncontrollable lust flickered in his eyes.

But the next moment, a green flame flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes, and his spiritual platform cleared.

Medusa's gaze was surprised; both brothers were extraordinary, having both become immune to her enchantment.

Although Medusa scorned using such vulgar tricks, she knew her own allure; not only these two youngsters, even the Fighting King within the clan could not resist.

Of course, there was another who could resist; Medusa calmly looked at Yao Lao, noting that this fellow could also be immune to her beauty.

Yao Lao felt Medusa's gaze but said little, merely continuing to brief Xiao Yan on some matters.

Everything finished, Xiao Li and the others returned to Shimo Cheng.

In a certain map shop, Hai Bo Dong felt the agitation of the seal within his body, horrified by the source of this aura, his lips trembling.

"M— Medusa."

Run!

This was Hai Bo Dong's sole thought; without even closing the shop's doors, his aged body erupted with incredible force, leaping far away.

Medusa, who was advancing, was slightly startled by the familiar aura…

Medusa's twin wings behind her quivered; that old man must have sensed her too, now fleeing far away—she must capture him, lest he run to inform and ruin her grand plan.

Before long, the tear‑less Hai Bo Dong was tossed by Medusa into the backyard of the Desert Iron Mercenary Corps.

Xiao Yan was startled, "Old Hai? How did you get captured?"

Hearing the familiar voice, the previously desperate Hai Bo Dong jerked his head up, assessed the situation, and scrambled, rolling and crawling, to hide behind Yao Lao.

The old man's aura was profoundly mysterious, threefold stronger than Medusa's, surely able to protect him.

Medusa was too lazy to argue with him; if she weren't worried about angering Yao Lao, she would have killed the human long ago.

Yao Lao kept watching Medusa, and of course he wouldn't let her kill Hai Bo Dong, as the latter was to become his disciple's future bodyguard.

"Keep him under control; don't let him go and inform," Medusa said coldly.

Xiao Li nodded; now Hai Lao only possessed Fighting Spirit cultivation, so it was fitting for him to manage it.

Watching the demoness and a youth enter the hastily dug cellar, Hai Lao stared in disbelief at Yao Lao beside him.

"Sir, Xiao Yan won't be in trouble, will he?"

Yao Lao gave a faint smile, "Rest assured, even if something happens to him, I will still forge the Reviving Spirit Purple Pill."

Hai Lao, whose true motives were exposed, felt no embarrassment and said, "Then thank you, sir."

Xiao Li's gaze showed contemplation; clearly, this Medusa hadn't prepared as thoroughly as in the original work, lacking that pool of Ice Spirit Cold Spring.

However, correspondingly, this time the Azure Lotus Earth‑core Fire could be controlled by someone, so the balance shifts, and the outcome likely won't change much.

Everything, then, can only wait.

Yao Lao stood nearby without speaking, but was secretly anxious inside; he had earlier, in the underground, quietly urged Xiao Yan not to agree to help Medusa evolve.

As a result, the foolish disciple shouted about deep brotherly ties and rushed to the surface, leaving Yao Lao with no recourse.

Nevertheless, Yao Lao felt gratified inside, at least the disciple he found this time was loyal and righteous.

Today's friendly book recommendation.

Zhao Ci: Transmigrated into a magical world, Zhao Ci married the person he met by a fated encounter, and at a young age began cohabiting after marriage.

Only his wife is a bit cold, treating him indifferently.

…Mu Ningxue: Married a stranger she met by a fated encounter, not of her own volition, and reluctantly began cohabiting after marriage.
