Battle Through the Heavens: The Rock King Emperor's Leisurely Wanderings in the Mortal World

Chapter 15 Little Fairy Doctor

Zhongli searched meticulously, and suddenly, he keenly sensed the follower lurking outside, hidden in the darkness. Surprisingly, this person had a faint connection to the ancient emperor's bloodline recorded in the True Book of Thunder and Lightning.

"Could this person be a descendant of an ancient emperor?"

Through in-depth study of the encyclopedia, Zhongli has clearly grasped the specific strengths corresponding to each level.

After Zhong Li's analysis, it was discovered that the person outside the window had reached the peak of the eight-star Dou Huang realm. In the entire Wutan City, such strength was practically godlike. Judging solely from their apparent strength, this person could easily deal with Zhong Li, so why was the other party secretly spying on him from outside the door?

Zhongli was filled with doubt, but he was already used to remaining calm in such situations. As long as the other party didn't do anything excessive, why would Zhongli be afraid of his spying? In the past, during the Immortal Invocation Ceremony, tens of thousands of Liyue people stared intently at his "corpse," and Zhongli had never been afraid.

"However, spying on others is ultimately not a glorious thing." Zhong Li's voice was gentle yet carried a deep power. His gaze precisely locked onto the faint trace of ancient emperor bloodline within Ling Ying's body outside the window. In an instant, Ling Ying felt as if his soul had been struck a heavy blow, his head spinning, and he felt as if he would be drained of his blood and die in the next second.

Zhong Li did not use his full strength, but only applied just the right amount of power to ensure that Ling Ying could wake up before dawn.

The moonlight flowed across the ground of Wutan City, like a layer of eerie mercury slowly creeping across it.

In an instant, Zhong Li moved like lightning and appeared in Xiao Yan's room. He then carefully placed the "Eternal Thunder Technique" that he had just meticulously crafted beside Xiao Yan's pillow as he slept soundly.

Zhongli strolled leisurely above Wutan City, enjoying the enchanting night view. "Today is the sixteenth, and the bright moon hanging high in the sky seems exceptionally round."

"If I am allowed to leisurely ride the moon from now on, I will visit Qingshan Town again."

Last time, it was Ling Ying who disrupted Zhong Li's plans, causing him to turn back after only visiting Qingshan Town. This time, he is determined to enjoy the trip again.

Passing through the Ghost Forest, you will arrive at Green Mountain Town.

Zhong Li stepped into the void, his figure as swift as lightning, instantly traversing a thousand meters...

Just as he was about to reach the core area of ​​the Ghost-Suppressing Forest, a sharp and mournful "caw caw" pierced the sky and echoed throughout the forest.

"This is the sound of a magical beast of the eagle kind. Its voice contains endless sorrow and despair. Could it be that it has reached the end of its life?" Zhong Li's interest was piqued, and he immediately changed direction, rushing towards the source of the sound.

A moment later, Zhongli, relying on his keen hearing, quickly located and flew over a large circular canyon.

He slowly looked down from high above, his gaze piercing through the void, his divine sense spreading outwards like ripples. Deep within this vast and boundless canyon, a small and rustic wooden house stood quietly. Outside the house, the eagle he had seen earlier was constantly emitting low and rapid roars and cries towards the house, as if it were constantly yearning or desperately calling for help.

Zhong Li's heart tightened, and without hesitation, he used his teleportation technique to instantly appear inside the wooden house.

What came into view was a heartbreaking scene: a little girl, radiating an eerie green light and surrounded by a faint, otherworldly glow, was curled up on a simple bed. Her eyes were tightly closed, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, as if she were enduring immense pain. Her pearly white teeth were clenched tightly into her lower lip, drawing blood, yet she did not loosen her grip even slightly.

Zhong Li relentlessly searched through the sea of ​​memories. In the midst of the complex and intertwined memories, he quickly recognized the girl before him as the infamous Calamity Poison Body, feared throughout the Dou Qi Continent.

"Now, this girl's afflicted poison body has progressed to the middle stage, and there is still a great chance that it can be completely controlled. However, each attack of the poison body is extremely long. Judging from the current situation, she has endured nearly a whole day of torment." Zhong Li frowned slightly, his two sword-like eyebrows tightly knitted together, as if they were filled with his heart full of worry and pity.

His heart was filled with pity for the poor child, as if he could see every bit of pain she endured under the torment of the poison. "Let's not wake her up, let her sleep peacefully for a while," Zhong Li murmured softly, his voice carrying a hint of tenderness.

After speaking, he slowly extended his right hand, his slender fingers gently touching the girl's forehead. A golden divine power flowed from his fingertips, as delicate and exquisite as silk threads, like a nimble sprite, precisely separating the stubborn, intractable poison from the girl's body and internal organs one by one.

Driven by Zhongli Shen's power, the toxins that had penetrated deep into the skin were slowly absorbed by the golden membrane, as if by magic. Each departure of a trace of toxin seemed to take away a portion of the girl's pain.

In an instant, the girl's face regained its tranquility. Her previously furrowed brows gradually relaxed, and a faint blush appeared on her pale face. Steady breathing replaced her previous painful groans, echoing softly in the long-unseen cabin like a peaceful melody, telling of the girl's current relief and peace.

The next morning, the girl lazily stretched, a long-lost yawn, and rubbed her sleepy eyes.

"Wow... I haven't slept this well in ages!"

The girl had just opened her eyes with a sigh of relief when she saw a strange man sitting on a stool next to the bed, his eyes closed as if in deep meditation.

"You! Who are you?"

Upon hearing this, the man slowly opened his eyes. He had once again savored the feeling of sleeping tonight, and it felt quite good.

The man slowly stood up and opened his right hand in front of the girl, where a green, smoking poison pill was floating in his palm.

The latest novel is first published here!

"This is the toxin produced in your body when your Calamity Poison Body erupted last night."

"Was it you...was it you who helped me remove the toxins?" the girl asked with a hint of gratitude.

Zhong Li smiled faintly and nodded slightly, which was his way of responding.

The girl's emotions were becoming increasingly difficult to contain. She knew all too well the pain she had felt when she fainted from the onset of the Calamity Poison. From childhood until now, she had lost count of how many times this poison had flared up. Each time, after the poison took effect, when she slowly awoke, her body felt as if it were being crushed by a towering mountain. For the entire long day, she couldn't move even a finger, and was only tightly bound by endless pain.

However, at this moment, she was pleasantly surprised to find that her breathing was steady and smooth, and her body had returned to its usual state, even feeling more comfortable and at ease than usual.

This strange turn of events made it impossible for her to have any doubt about what the man in front of her was saying.

"Benefactor! Benefactor brother, hello! My name is Little Fairy Doctor. Big brother, you have a way to cure the Calamity Poison Body, right?" Little Fairy Doctor grabbed Zhong Li's clothes tightly as if she had grasped the most precious treasure in the world, and kept shaking him gently.

Her appearance was both like she was being coquettish and cute, and also like she was desperately begging for the other person's sympathy and pity.
