Chapter 11 See you again if fate allows.
"Go ahead and get busy, I plan to start cultivating immediately." Gu Yan said with a smile, turning his head to look at Little Fairy Doctor's smooth, jade-like profile.
Upon hearing this, Little Fairy Doctor was slightly taken aback, gave him a coquettish glare, and snorted, "Then I'll go gather herbs first, you go cultivate."
As she spoke, she turned and walked toward some herbs in the distance.
Little Fairy Doctor was somewhat unhappy. Countless people in the entire Green Mountain Town liked her. Whenever they came to the Monster Mountain Range to collect herbs, if she went with them, those mercenary groups would drive down the price to the lowest possible level, and they would often almost fight over the remaining spots.
But the kid in front of him simply dismissed him without saying another word.
How infuriating.
Gu Yan turned around, looked at the Little Fairy Doctor gradually disappearing into the distance, and gently shook his head.
It seems I need to work even harder to improve my strength and strive to obtain the method for obtaining the Poison Pill as soon as possible.
Next, Gu Yan found a quiet place to cultivate for three hours, completely adjusting his condition to its peak.
He then wandered around the valley, identifying each of the flowers and plants.
Over the next two days, Gu Yan and Little Fairy Doctor each focused on their own cultivation of fighting spirit and studying the Poison Scripture, without disturbing each other.
The peaceful days were quite leisurely and fulfilling.
By the evening of the following day, sensing the rapidly surging energy in the surrounding world, Gu Yan smiled and said, "I'm finally about to break through."
He closed his eyes tightly and focused his mind on his body.
As Gu Yan entered a meditative state, the energy surging around him grew increasingly concentrated, eventually rushing wildly into his body.
Although these energies are vast in quantity, they contain too many impurities and must be refined and purified through the meridians in order to be fully absorbed.
Fortunately, Gu Yan was currently cultivating the high-level Earth-rank technique "Primordial Flame Devouring Technique," which easily suppressed the overwhelming energy. The energy was then completely refined into pure battle qi energy and poured into the purple-gold vortex.
The massive energies of heaven and earth that surged forth were rapidly reduced in size under the power of the Primordial Flame Devouring Technique.
In the blink of an eye, massive clumps of celestial energy transformed into droplets of liquid energy no bigger than a fingernail, which were then projected into the rapidly spinning purplish-gold vortex.
Time passed slowly until, a quarter of an hour later, Gu Yan, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes.
In that instant, his black hair moved without wind, his clothes billowed without wind, and a fierce aura several times stronger than before emanated from his body.
Just then, Little Fairy Doctor returned from gathering herbs and saw this scene. Her rosy lips parted slightly, and she looked shocked.
Slowly standing up, Gu Yan glanced around and saw Little Fairy Doctor looking shocked.
The slender figure in the plain white dress looked rather adorable in her dazed expression.
Seeing Gu Yan looking over, Little Fairy Doctor immediately asked, "What exactly is your cultivation level?"
Gu Yan smiled slightly and answered truthfully, "Six-star Dou Shi."
"How old are you?"
"Fifteen years old."
Little Fairy Doctor's expression stiffened slightly, and after a long while, she sighed, "It seems you are one of those legendary cultivation geniuses."
Gu Yan's expression softened as he said, "I only cultivated desperately to protect my people, which is why I have achieved my current level of cultivation."
After hesitating for a moment, Little Fairy Doctor asked in a low voice, "Could you tell me about your family situation?"
Gu Yan approached and saw that Little Fairy Doctor had sat down, so he plopped down next to her as well.
He told Little Fairy Doctor about his family situation, but did not tell her that he was not from the Northwest region.
When she learned of the Gu family's current situation, Little Fairy Doctor also showed a worried expression.
"Don't worry, I'm here, everything will be fine."
Gu Yan smiled slightly, then suddenly said, "I might have to leave tonight."
Her eyes flickered slightly, and after a moment, Little Fairy Doctor nodded gently and said softly, "There are only a few days left until that so-called social event, so you really should go."
"Would you like to come with me? Our Gu family is in need of a physician, and the treatment will definitely be better than at Wan Yao Zhai." After a moment of silence, Gu Yan suddenly asked with a smile.
"I think if we meet again in the future, I might go with you," Little Fairy Doctor said with a forced smile.
"May we meet again someday...?"
He murmured to himself, then nodded gently and said, "Then we'll meet again someday. I believe we will."
Upon hearing this, Little Fairy Doctor didn't say anything. After pondering for a while, she got up and went into the small thatched hut.
A moment later, she carefully came out carrying a beautifully wrapped sachet and a small jade bottle.
"The substance inside is called Soul-Losing Powder. Although the name sounds scary, it is not actually a pure poison."
"This is what I found in the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture, and it's the highest-grade medicinal powder I can refine so far."
With a flick of her wrist, Little Fairy Doctor continued with a smile, "This Soul-Shattering Powder emits an extremely pungent odor, and I've added some special ingredients to it. If you encounter a powerful opponent that you can't defeat in the future, you can sprinkle it on them. By surprise, even if the opponent is a Great Battle Master, their senses will be temporarily blocked by the pungent smell of the powder. During this time, you can find an opportunity to escape."
Taking the sachet, Gu Yan smiled and nodded, "Thank you."
Gently shaking her head, Little Fairy Doctor handed over the jade bottle in her hand, saying, "These poisons don't distinguish between friend and foe. When you use them, you'd better take the antidote I prepared, otherwise, you'll also be affected by them."
Gu Yan nodded emphatically.
After giving these things to Gu Yan, Little Fairy Doctor took out a jade bottle from her bosom, threw it to Gu Yan, and said, "This is the most powerful antidote pill I have ever made. It might be able to help you."
Holding the jade bottle that still carried the warmth of Little Fairy Doctor's body, Gu Yan smiled slightly.
She really was the Little Fairy Doctor he remembered.
To be honest, Little Fairy Doctor's kindness really touched him.
So he took out a small jade bottle from his storage ring, waved it at Little Fairy Doctor, and said with a smile, "I suppose you haven't seen a real elixir in Green Mountain Town yet?"
Upon hearing this, Little Fairy Doctor's bright eyes lit up slightly as she stared intently at the jade bottle in Gu Yan's hand, exclaiming in surprise, "Is this filled with pills?"
"Okay, here you go." Gu Yan nodded with a smile and tossed it to Little Fairy Doctor.
Little Fairy Doctor quickly and carefully caught it.
"Be careful, what if you break it?"
Catching the small jade bottle, Little Fairy Doctor gave Gu Yan a reproachful look.
She quickly opened the bottle cap, tilted it to pour out a round, emerald-green pill, and gently sniffed it under her delicate nose.
The refreshing scent of herbs made Little Fairy Doctor feel slightly intoxicated and heartbroken.
She had been searching for this flavor for many years.
Unfortunately, in the end, she...
"So this is the elixir? It's definitely not comparable to the crude fusion of medicinal herbs I used with ordinary flames." Looking at the smooth and lustrous surface of the elixir, Little Fairy Doctor sighed.
"Don't sigh. I gave you the pills, not to discourage you."
"This pill is called the Jade Spirit Pill. I only have a few of them. It's a pill that can be used for both healing and cultivation. It can help people heal injuries and also help them cultivate." Seeing Little Fairy Doctor's self-pitying appearance, Gu Yan shook his head and explained.
"You really want to give me such a precious elixir?" Little Fairy Doctor felt like she was in a dream.
"You are the only friend I made during my travels, so naturally I have to give you a gift before I leave."
As he spoke, Gu Yan reached into his robes and took out the empty storage ring belonging to the owner of the stone chamber. Then, he took two steps forward, grabbed Little Fairy Doctor's jade hand, and slipped it onto her wrist.
"This is a storage ring. With it, gathering herbs will be easier for you in the future."
With a slight blush, she took a step back, looking down and playing with the storage ring on her finger. Little Fairy Doctor smiled sweetly, feeling a warm feeling in her heart.
It feels so good to exchange gifts.
She looked up at Gu Yan and said softly, "Go and get some medicinal herbs. You won't find such a good place again after you leave."
"Hehe, all prepared on the first day." Gu Yan twirled the storage ring on his finger.
With her beautiful eyes fixed on Gu Yan's radiant smile, Little Fairy Doctor smiled knowingly as well.
After letting out a soft breath, she put the bamboo whistle in her hand into her rosy lips.
