Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 88 Recognition
Xiao Yan's actions successfully made Xiao Yixian completely forget her previous speculations. She bit her lips the whole time and said almost nothing, for fear that he would do anything extreme again.

After quickly swinging to the cave, Xiao Yan suppressed the distracting thoughts and some of the romantic feelings in his mind, put Xiao Yixian down,
"We're here, let's get down."

Xiao Yixian, who had broken free from Xiao Yan's embrace, felt the tingling sensation in her waist disappear, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Having not seen the light for a long time, she quickly lit the tinder, illuminating the originally dark environment, and walked quickly towards the cave she had been looking forward to for a long time.

"Whoosh!"

A black shadow suddenly jumped out from the dark corner the moment the torch illuminated it, mixed with a faint fluctuation of fighting spirit, and pounced towards Xiao Yixiang at a tricky angle.

"This is... a rock snake!" The little medical fairy was tense all over. Although the monster's attack was a bit sudden, she was obviously not completely defenseless. She flipped the medicine bag in her hand, urged the fighting spirit in her body, condensed the medicine powder into a ball, and shot it fiercely into the open mouth of the rock snake.

Unlike the previous pale white drug, this powder is dark black in color, and the corrosive sour smell spreads in the air as soon as it leaves the hand. It obviously has extremely strong attack power.

The rock snake, having choked on the poison, immediately let out a painful roar, and the pair of narrow flesh wings on its back waved wildly, becoming even more violent.

Obviously, the poison that is extremely effective on humans is much less effective against the thick-skinned and tough monsters.

Seeing this, Xiao Yixian's face turned pale and she couldn't help but take a few steps back. Just as she was about to put her hand into her pocket, Xiao Yan's somewhat helpless voice slowly echoed in the cave.

"Hey, if I let you continue exploring, I'm afraid you'll attract all those people up there."

As the young man spoke, a tiny blood-red flame shot out from his index finger. He bent his finger slightly and suddenly flicked the flame towards the center of the rock snake's head.

As the best among the first-level magical beasts, the rock snake's skin is as hard as iron and stone. This also makes it difficult for many high-level fighters to even break through its defense when facing it, and no one is willing to provoke it easily.

But the blood-red flame seemed to destroy and melt the rock snake's skin as easily as if it were nothing, and then even made a strange sound of it breaking apart inch by inch.

"Ding!"

With the crisp sound of a crystal stone falling to the ground, the huge body of the rock snake collapsed without even a roar. Its tail twitched a few times and it stopped moving.

Seeing the young man running to the rock snake as expected and picking up the khaki magic crystal, Xiao Yixian's pretty face was filled with shock and relief that could not be concealed.

It was not until now that she completely understood that the threat Xiao Yan had mentioned earlier was something that could be accomplished with just a wave of his hand.
"What kind of flame is that?"

"Why, do you want me to reignite that memorial for you?" Xiao Yan casually changed the subject and started talking nonsense, not knowing who he sounded like.

He obviously would not easily reveal the fact that he had mastered the strange fire.

With Xiao Yan's strength, it is not difficult to fight against a first-level advanced monster, but if he makes too much noise, it may obviously attract the attention of the higher-ups. Therefore, using the Ten Thousand Beasts Flame to suppress the will of the monster and thus achieve a quick and decisive kill is the safest choice.

".You can say it or not." Seeing the other party quicken his pace towards the cave, Xiao Yixian stamped her feet secretly and followed closely.

She is not as good as Xiao Yan. If another monster like a rock snake comes, she will probably be completely killed here.

Xiao Yan walked at a speed that was sometimes fast and sometimes slow. Xiao Yixian, who was following not far away, caught up with him in just three or two steps, and then walked behind him a little embarrassedly.

The scouting mission she was supposed to complete seemed to have been completely taken over by the other party. If Xiao Yan hadn't shown any disdain, she would have thought that this treasure hunt would be completely out of her reach. Watching the young man's steps, Xiao Yixian asked curiously, "Why are you walking fast and slow?"

Xiao Yan didn't turn around and said calmly, "Although this cave is quite old, there are still many dangerous things hidden inside. I guess it must be some kind of mechanism left behind by this fallen powerful person to protect his legacy."

As he spoke, he squatted down, picked up a stone, and threw it towards a piece of land not far away, seemingly casually.
"like this."

The next moment, a long and narrow crack suddenly appeared on the originally ordinary road. A whizzing cold arrow suddenly shot out from the top of the cave, nailed into the ground, and splashed rust.

Xiao Yixian's heart was pounding as she watched, and she quickly moved closer to Xiao Yan.

"How do you know about this?"

"I guess I discovered a pattern by chance. After about five steps, I turn slightly in another direction, and repeat this process."

Seeing the young man's well-reasoned analysis, the little medical fairy hesitated for a moment, then tried to walk according to the method the other party said.

"One, two, three, four, hey!"

The young man in front of him suddenly stopped, causing Xiao Yixian, who was originally concentrating on counting his steps, to bump into him unexpectedly because he couldn't stop in time.

The tip of her nose suddenly felt sore from being hit, causing Xiao Yixian to back away with a blush on her pretty face. She felt both embarrassed and annoyed for a moment: "Didn't we say to turn every five steps? What are you doing?"

"Normally speaking, that's exactly what's happening."

Xiao Yan coughed dryly, looking a little embarrassed: "But, there is no way forward."

Hearing this, Xiao Yixian slightly turned sideways and looked in front of Xiao Yan. Sure enough, a huge stone door was blocking the end of the cave, hindering the progress of the two.

After a brief observation, Xiao Yixian looked at Xiao Yan behind her, took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "Although I know you have some knowledge of mechanical engineering, since we are exploring together, I can't just sit there and do nothing and get something for nothing."

"Leave this to me, okay? Don't worry, it won't take long."

Xiao Yan, who was about to attack, slowly restrained his breath after hearing this, and a smile appeared in his eyes.

"Haha, okay, I'll leave it to you then."

Xiao Yan didn't know anything about mechanical engineering at all. The reason he was able to discover the rules before was just the result of observing through his soul power.

Therefore, it was certainly not a difficult task for him to find the switch of this stone door. It was just a matter of consuming a little more soul power.

However, what Xiao Yixian had said earlier hit the nail on the head in his heart.

"Can't you get something for nothing? This little medical fairy is saying the same thing as Ruoruo." Xiao Yan looked at the girl in white dress who was tinkering in front of him and whispered softly.
