Night!
Apart from a few mercenary guards, everyone else was sound asleep.
But not everyone could be like a certain night owl, secretly sneaking out in the middle of the night to look for things.
Xiao Jian opened his eyes.
He jumped down from the tree and muttered to himself, “Have they set off?
My luck is really good!” After speaking, he quietly followed behind a certain person.
After a long while, Little Fairy Doctor stopped, looked around, and only after confirming no one was there did she stride towards a certain cliff.
Along the way, she kept looking back to make sure no one was following.
And Xiao Jian, hidden behind a tree, chuckled, “Quite cautious, but it’s no use.”
After another moment, the two arrived at their destination one after another.
Actually, the place wasn’t far, but the little girl in front had taken many detours, which was why it took so long.
“Treasure!
Is it you?
Thanks to that guy, otherwise I wouldn’t have such a good opportunity.”
Little Fairy Doctor’s eyes lit up.
She looked down the cliff.
She had discovered this place while gathering herbs before, but she hadn’t confirmed it yet.
She planned to confirm it tonight and then find an opportunity to retrieve it later.
“How do I get down from such a high place?” She hadn’t expected such an opportunity this time, so she hadn’t brought a rope.
Just as she was troubled, a voice spoke out.
“Don’t have a rope?
Do you want me to help you?”
The sudden voice startled Little Fairy Doctor, causing her to slip and fall down the cliff.
“Ah!…”
Little Fairy Doctor’s sudden fall also startled Xiao Jian.
He didn’t want to kill anyone, especially not this girl who had tried to help him during the day.
Circulating his Dou Qi, Xiao Jian also jumped down after her.
He grabbed Little Fairy Doctor with his left hand, and with his other hand, he drew his sword and stabbed it into the cliff face.
But it wasn’t that easy; it only slowed their descent slightly before they rapidly fell again.
“Damn it!” Xiao Jian cursed.
At this rate, both of them would die.
He stabbed his sword into the cliff face again.
But it was still useless.
Stabbing it in again, Xiao Jian used his right hand to pull Little Fairy Doctor sharply upwards to his chest.
Little Fairy Doctor was terrified and immediately hugged Xiao Jian’s neck tightly, even wrapping her legs around Xiao Jian’s waist.
Now, Xiao Jian also drew his left sword.
With both swords, he forcefully stabbed them into the cliff face.
This time, the sharp blades fully pierced into the cliff face, gripping the sword hilts tightly.
The blades cut through the hard cliff face.
As the two touched, sparks flew.
In just two breaths, the two finally stopped, hanging quietly on the cliff face.
Sweat beaded on Xiao Jian’s forehead.
He glanced at the girl in his arms, who had stopped screaming but was still clinging tightly to him, and couldn’t help but want to tease her.
“Hey!
Beauty, wake up, take a look.”
Little Fairy Doctor felt the stop and slowly opened her eyes.
She glanced at Xiao Jian, about to curse, when she felt her feet were still in the air.
She jumped again in fright, then continued to hug Xiao Jian tightly.
“Hey!
Beauty, think of a way!
This isn’t going to work.
We can’t just hang here forever!” Xiao Jian had a loose tongue; he couldn’t help himself when he saw such a shy beauty.
At this, Little Fairy Doctor forced herself to calm down.
She glanced at the cliff below and glared fiercely at Xiao Jian.
“It’s all your fault!
Otherwise, how would I have fallen down!”
Xiao Jian also felt awkward from her stare.
“Well, didn’t I come down to save you?” His voice grew softer towards the end, seemingly lacking confidence.
This girl had a very special fragrance about her.
She really wanted to bite this hateful guy to death.
It was her first time being so close to a man, and her face unconsciously turned red.
She then said fiercely, “Pervert, bastard!”
“Uh!
This!” Xiao Jian was speechless.
Although the girl had voluntarily hugged him, he couldn’t say anything now.
Ahem…
mainly, he was quite comfortable.
Ahem!
Ahem!
Xiao Jian adjusted his emotions; he had to control himself, at least on the surface.
He said righteously, “Well, let’s think about how to get down first.
We’re still hanging on the cliff.”
Looking at this hateful guy, Little Fairy Doctor really wanted to stab him.
Not only did he make her fall down the cliff, but he also took advantage of her, and still had the nerve to talk like that.
*Ptooey!
Pervert!
I’ll definitely kill you!* But she also knew that now was not the time for revenge; she didn’t want to die.
And she certainly didn’t want to die with this scoundrel.
She glared fiercely at Xiao Jian again.
Then she began to carefully observe the surrounding terrain.
She didn’t know until she looked, but she found that she was not far from the place she had discovered, except that the cave was to her lower left, making it difficult to get to.
But she didn’t care about that.
All of this was this guy’s fault.
“There!
There seems to be a platform.
Take me there!” Little Fairy Doctor held Xiao Jian with her right hand and pointed towards the cave with her left.
With her pointing, Xiao Jian also saw the spot.
It was quite hidden; if you didn’t look carefully, you wouldn’t see it at all.
He nodded.
He pulled out his right sword and stabbed it into the side.
Then he pulled out his left sword and stabbed it in, moving little by little like that.
Moving on a cliff was already difficult, let alone dragging another person.
If Xiao Jian hadn’t cultivated a Divine-Rank Dou Technique, his Dou Qi would have long been exhausted, but even so, his Dou Qi was nearly depleted halfway there.
“Hoo!
Hoo!
Hoo!” The two were pressed tightly together.
Seeing Xiao Jian’s sweat constantly flowing down his cheeks and his breathing quickening, Little Fairy Doctor couldn’t help but become nervous.
“Hey, hey!
Are you still okay?!
Be careful!”
Xiao Jian’s hands didn’t stop, but he chuckled, “Are you worried about me?”
Hearing Xiao Jian still able to banter, Little Fairy Doctor also relaxed a lot and retorted, “Of course not!”
Feeling the softness against him, Xiao Jian continued forward.
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you die.
Get ready!” As Xiao Jian finished his last word, he immediately became solemn.
Dou Qi surged.
“Ready for what?
Ah!” Before she could finish, the two flew up again.
“You bastard!
Beast, pervert!
I won’t let you off even if I become a ghost!”
The two landed on a platform.
Hearing Little Fairy Doctor still cursing, Xiao Jian retrieved his swords and said helplessly, “Beauty, why don’t you get off me first before cursing?”
Little Fairy Doctor finally stopped, opened her eyes, and tentatively placed her feet on the ground.
Feeling solid ground, she stomped twice.
Only then did she relax.
She released her hands from Xiao Jian’s neck.
She stood to the side.
She began to calm down and lament, while also cursing Xiao Jian.
“Bastard!
Stinky pervert!”
Suddenly, Xiao Jian felt the softness leave him.
*What a pity, how nostalgic.
I’m such a masochist; it’s not like I can’t handle this much weight.* But there was nothing he could do.
He couldn’t ask her to come back up, could he.
He took out a green bottle from his storage ring, took out a pill, and threw it into his mouth.
The pure medicinal power transformed into energy, rapidly restoring his depleted Dou Qi.
He circulated his cultivation technique.
The milky white Dou Qi once again became solid.
“Hey!
What are you eating?” Little Fairy Doctor had also calmed down.
She asked.
“Qi Restoration Pill.
You can’t eat it yet.
Let’s go!”
Little Fairy Doctor had not yet broken through to Dou Zhe, so she couldn’t casually take pills; it would affect her foundation.
And she also couldn’t withstand the violent medicinal power.
Little Fairy Doctor also knew she couldn’t eat it, but she yearned to be an alchemist, so she was very curious.
But she still spoke stubbornly: “Why can’t I eat it?
How do you know I can’t eat it?
Eh?
You said ‘let’s go’?
Go where?
Are we going up?”
At this point, she still wanted to hide it.
What if this guy was stupid.
Xiao Jian glanced at the little girl, still wanting to tease her.
He said seriously, “Look, there’s a passage here.
Maybe it’s the cave dwelling of some expert inside.
If it’s ours, wouldn’t we get rich?
But don’t worry, if I find treasure, I’ll definitely give you a share.”
Now, Little Fairy Doctor was embarrassed.
“Is that so!
Well, alright then!”
Her shy appearance made Xiao Jian want to burst out laughing, but he had to hold it in.
“That’s right!
Don’t worry.
Finders keepers, everyone gets a share.”
“Is that so!
Then thank you!” Little Fairy Doctor wanted to say something, but felt awkward.
At this moment, she couldn’t possibly say that she had discovered this place first, could she?
Why hadn’t she said anything earlier.
“Mhm!
Let’s go!”
Little Fairy Doctor looked at Xiao Jian, originally a bit embarrassed.
But as she kept looking, she seemed to notice something was amiss.
“Oh, you bastard!
Liar!
You pushed me down the cliff, took advantage of me, and now you want to swallow my treasure.
You really are a scoundrel!”
She had discovered him, but Xiao Jian was thick-skinned.
“Well, finders keepers, right.
Whether you discovered it or I discovered it, wouldn’t it be better if everyone just split it evenly?
Hurry!
Otherwise, others might discover it!”
Little Fairy Doctor suddenly remembered that her voice earlier wasn’t quiet, and this place wasn’t far from the camp.
Although it was hidden, with so many people, if someone heard and came looking, it would be even more troublesome.
She glared fiercely at Xiao Jian again.
Bastard!
She didn’t want this guy to take advantage of her.
But if those people came, she would get nothing at all.
This guy didn’t seem like a bad person, so despite her reluctance, she had no choice.
She gritted her teeth and said, “Let’s go, scoundrel!”
Seeing this, Xiao Jian could only give an awkward smile.
After all, he was indeed in the wrong.
He admitted that he was indeed coveting her fortune.
Little Fairy Doctor walked ahead and smoothly opened the large door.
Looking at the medicinal herbs and gold coins scattered everywhere, Xiao Jian didn’t rush to collect them.
Instead, he first walked to the skeleton, bowed slightly.
He took the key, then took out the scroll from its chest.
Opening the scroll, a damaged map appeared before the two of them.
“This is useless to you.
It’s mine.”
Little Fairy Doctor saw it was a map and nodded, agreeing.
“Then, what about the remaining three boxes and those herbs?”
“How about this?
For the herbs, I only want that Ice Spirit Flame Grass, and I’ll give you all the rest.
As for the items in the boxes, let’s open them and see.
Whoever needs it takes it.”
Although she really wanted that herb, she couldn’t beat this guy, and those poison powders probably wouldn’t work on him, so she could only say ‘okay’ with tears in her eyes.
Opening the first box, a seven-colored scroll appeared inside.
Seven-Colored Poison Manual
He threw the scroll to Little Fairy Doctor.
“This is useless to me.
You can have it.”
Then he proceeded to open the second box.
Indeed, it was the ‘Wings of the Eagle’.
This was Xiao Jian’s biggest goal in coming here.
It could allow Xiao Jian to possess the ability to fly before becoming a Dou King, and it would provide great protection for his life.
Perhaps he would be able to use it soon.
Seeing the scroll Xiao Jian held tightly, Little Fairy Doctor couldn’t help but ask, “What is that thing?”
“A flying Dou Technique.
A Dou Technique that allows one to fly before becoming a Dou King.”
After hearing Xiao Jian’s explanation, Little Fairy Doctor said “Oh!” and then simply said, “It’s yours.”
He opened the third box.
Mad Lion’s Roar (Profound Grade High-Rank Dou Technique)
“This is also useless to me.
It’s yours too.” Little Fairy Doctor glanced at it, then walked away without interest in digging for herbs.
He put the two scrolls back into his storage ring; now was not the time for cultivation.
Looking at the diligent Little Fairy Doctor, Xiao Jian walked over, collected the only herb that belonged to him, and asked a fatal question.
“You’ve dug up so much.
How are you going to take it all?”
Little Fairy Doctor turned back, looking at Xiao Jian resentfully.
“You see, I have no other way.”
She continued to stare.
“Alright!
Alright!
I’ll give you a storage ring then.”
With the troublesome storage ring, Little Fairy Doctor immediately became happy.
She said, “Don’t worry, I’ll return the storage ring to you when I get back.”
Leaning against the stone wall indifferently, “No need.
The value of the things I took is far higher than a storage ring.
Consider that as compensation for you.”
“Alright!
^_^” Little Fairy Doctor agreed.
“You’re really not being polite, are you!”
“Then what do you want?
You’ve taken so many advantages of me.
Can’t I even ask for a storage ring?” As she spoke, she turned her head to continue staring at Xiao Jian.
Why bring that up again.
“Alright, alright.
Anything you say.
You’re the boss.”
“That’s more like it!” She muttered, and Little Fairy Doctor continued digging for herbs.
