Battle Through the Heavens: The Holy Sun Immortal Venerable

Chapter 9 Little Fairy Doctor

Due to its proximity to the desert, the weather here is quite dry and hot. The scorching sun shines down from the sky, baking the ground beneath our feet and constantly emitting sweltering heat. That heat slowly rises up, even causing a slight distortion and blurring of vision.

But at this moment, Xiao Yan not only did not feel the heat, but also felt a chill down his spine!

No wonder that after sensing that guy's aura, the teacher took him away from the Monster Mountain Range without stopping, and even if he wanted to go to Green Mountain Town, he was not allowed to.

Such terrifying strength, such terrifying resources and background, and the possibility that they are enemies—who could withstand that?

"There's a feeling of suffocating despair..."

Xiao Yan murmured.

"Hahaha, you're not so desperate as to suffocate. You're my disciple, Yao Chen."

Yao Chen, in his soul form, laughed heartily and patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder: "Little guy, don't be discouraged by that guy. The cultivation method of the Cloud Rain Sect is completely different from ordinary people. They rely on devouring the Dou Qi of the flesh cauldron to improve their speed so quickly. If we really talk about cultivation talent, he is no match for you."

"Besides, don't overthink it. Although I had some conflicts with the Cloud Rain Sect, that was decades ago."

"I have already perished and become a soul. That boy couldn't have come for me. Besides, even if I had some conflicts with the Cloud Rain Sect, you have never had any contact with the Cloud Rain Sect, so there's no need to worry."

"I know my teachers, but I was just stunned by their power for a moment." Xiao Yan shook his head with a wry smile. Dou Zong and Dou Zun, what powerful realms those were.

"Don't worry, under my tutelage, your achievements will certainly be no less than theirs!"

Yao Chen stroked his beard and said, "Alright, the Tagor Desert is the most suitable place for people who cultivate fire and earth attribute techniques. The conditions here are harsh, which is much better for tempering people than the Monster Mountain Range."

"Since your two older brothers happen to be in the city, you can cultivate in this area for now."

"Yes, teacher!"

Xiao Yan nodded emphatically, and at the same time took out a heavy black ruler from his storage ring.

The Xuanzhong Ruler is forged from Flamefall Black Iron, making it extremely hard and heavy, and possessing the magical effect of suppressing battle qi.

He had put away the Xuanzhong Ruler earlier in order to run faster, but now that he wanted to continue cultivating, he naturally had to wear it again.

Feeling the weight transmitted from the Xuanzhong Ruler, Xiao Yan let out a soft breath, looked at the city in front of him that was engraved with the words "Mo City", and resolutely walked in.

"So what if I'm a Dou Zong? So what if I'm a Dou Zun?"

"I promise I won't let you down, teacher!"

……

Green Mountain Town is the town closest to the Monster Mountain Range.

Because of its proximity to the Monster Mountain Range, it is also known as Monster Town. The largest population in the town are naturally the mercenaries who spend their days on the edge of a knife.

They walked in groups, arms entwined, spitting as they chatted unabashedly in the streets about which women in town were the most alluring, where the liquor was the strongest, and where the monsters were the most ferocious…

However, in this bustling town, there is one place that seems completely out of place.

That was the Wan Yao Zhai, located on the edge of the town. Normally, this place was bustling with people, but due to some special reasons, the entire Wan Yao Zhai was now eerily quiet. The small manor was heavily guarded, with more than a dozen fully armed guards stationed there.

Inside a quiet room in the manor, a woman dressed in a white robe was carefully preparing medicinal powder. Occasionally, she would use a small crystal stick to pick up a little powder and gently sniff it under her delicate nose.

Although the woman's appearance wasn't exactly stunning, she was still a rare beauty. Her serene smile radiated a fresh and ethereal quality, which greatly enhanced her charm.

What's most alluring is that her slender waist, bound by a green ribbon, is so delicate and fragile that just one glance at it makes one want to hold it and admire it!

However, a knock came at the door, and a middle-aged man's voice broke the beautiful scene.

"Hehe, is Little Fairy Doctor here?"

Although his words carried a questioning tone, he had barely finished speaking when he pushed open the door, glanced around the room, and then looked at Little Fairy Doctor with a smile: "Little Fairy Doctor, what's your decision?"

"Mr. Yao, I didn't get anything from that cave. It was all just a rumor spread by the Wolf Head Mercenary Group."

As Little Fairy Doctor placed the jade bottle on the table into her inner sleeve pocket, she said calmly, "Why do you have to force me like this?"

Upon hearing Little Fairy Doctor's words, Mr. Yao said with a forced smile, "Little Fairy Doctor, whether she exists or not, you and I both know the truth. I'm just here to remind you that the three days are almost up."

"...Let's wait until the time comes."

Little Fairy Doctor didn't even turn her head. Her indifferent reaction made Mr. Yao's face stiffen slightly, but he still managed to force out an extremely fake smile: "Little Fairy Doctor, you are the core physician of my Ten Thousand Medicines Hall. Giving this Poison Manual to me will allow the people of the entire Qingshan Town to receive better treatment conditions and techniques."

"You should think about the bigger picture, and consider the people of Qingshan Town!"

"..."

The room was deathly silent. Mr. Yao's face stiffened as he watched Little Fairy Doctor still fiddling with the jade bottle, his eyes filled with displeasure, but he managed to restrain himself.

"Okay, okay, think it over carefully, but I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer in a day."

"..."

Seeing that Little Fairy Doctor completely ignored him, Mr. Yao's face twitched, but in the end he could only wave his hand fiercely and slowly leave the room with a few guards.

The room became quiet again.

Little Fairy Doctor sat quietly, calmly arranging the bottles and jars, seemingly unconcerned about Mr. Yao's threat.

After what seemed like a while, as if waiting for the people outside to leave, Little Fairy Doctor suddenly approached the table and gently sniffed the dark purple powder on it.

As the powder entered her body, the next moment, Little Fairy Doctor's originally rosy face suddenly turned a strange dark purple color, as if she were someone who had been poisoned.

But Little Fairy Doctor's pretty face showed no sign of pain; instead, a look of intoxication appeared on her face.

After an unknown amount of time, the intoxicated look slowly faded from Little Fairy Doctor's pretty face. The girl, who was immersed in unknown pleasure, also opened her eyes again, but those eyes were slightly lifeless.

After a long while, her eyes fell on the remaining dark purple powder on the table, and a bitter smile gradually appeared on her lips. A moment later, the bitterness intensified, and Little Fairy Doctor suddenly covered her face with her hands, letting out a series of sobs.

"I couldn't help it again, I... I really deserve to die..."

"It's just following my instincts, why be so hard on myself?"

A sudden sound rang out in the room, and the sobbing girl froze.

The next moment, Little Fairy Doctor suddenly turned around and swung her right arm, scattering the contents of the bottle behind her.

In an instant, the entire room was filled with toxic powder!
