As the monster's figure completely disappeared into the distance, a cheer of relief erupted from the crowd, as if they had escaped from the clutches of death.

They were panting heavily, their faces showing a mixture of fear and relief, as if they had just survived a life-or-death ordeal.

A moment later, they began to discuss the mysterious powerful figure they had just encountered.

"Who...who is it?" a young maid asked in a trembling voice, her eyes still filled with lingering fear.

"Which mysterious powerful figure stepped in to help?" another middle-aged man muttered to himself, his gaze sweeping through the crowd as if searching for that legendary figure.

An older member of the mercenary group said, "It turns out that a mysterious and powerful figure came to our aid."

"This powerful figure's strength is unfathomable. What method did he use to force those magical beasts back? He didn't even show his face, yet he made those ferocious beasts retreat. Such strength is simply beyond imagination. It's hard to imagine what kind of powerful figure he is."

"That's right, that's right, senior is truly a role model for us all." A group of people nodded in agreement, their faces showing admiration and envy.

They composed themselves and continued on to the herb-gathering area, where they arrived.

Xiao Yao was slightly surprised to see all sorts of first and second-grade medicinal herbs in that area. Although these herbs were common, it was surprising that they were so concentrated in this area of ​​the Magical Beast Mountain Range. Moreover, Xiao Yao sensed that the battle qi energy in this small area was quite rich, which explained why so many medicinal herbs could grow there.

"Clear Spirit Leaf, Fire Demon Leaf, Rebirth Grass..."

Little Fairy Doctor stared blankly at this area, reciting the names of first and second-grade medicinal herbs one by one from her mouth.

She walked slowly through a dense forest, each step cautious, as if afraid of disturbing something precious.

Her fingers gently traced the leaves, feeling their texture and warmth, as if she could sense the vitality and energy they contained.

Little Fairy Doctor paused for a moment, then said, "I heard from the people at Wan Yao Zhai that there were medicinal herbs growing in this area before, but not as many as there are now. Moreover, there are many more Grade 2 medicinal herbs here. It's hard to imagine what happened here that caused so many medicinal herbs to grow."

Little Fairy Doctor muttered to herself, her brows furrowed, as if she were pondering some profound question.

She looked around and saw that the forest was lush with green trees, and sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, creating dappled light and shadow.

The chirping of birds drifted from afar. Little Fairy Doctor turned to Xiao Yao and said, "Xiao Yao, do you know what happened here?"

Xiao Yao scratched his head, his words muffled: "It might be... caused by the recent lightning tribulation, but I don't know what caused it back then."

Upon hearing Xiao Yao's answer, Little Fairy Doctor recalled the previous lightning tribulation. She nodded and said softly, "Perhaps it really was the effect of the lightning tribulation, but the changes in this forest are too great. I wonder if there are other reasons."

Little Fairy Doctor continued on her way, her pace quickening as if she couldn't wait to find more medicinal herbs.

Her heart was filled with anticipation and excitement, as if she had already foreseen the abundant treasures she would reap.

Suddenly, Little Fairy Doctor stepped on a soft plant. Looking down, she saw that it was a rare second-grade medicinal herb—Dragon Blood Grass.

Her eyes lit up immediately, and she carefully dug it out and placed it in her medicine basket.

"Haha, what a fruitful day!" Little Fairy Doctor couldn't help but cheer, her face beaming with joy and satisfaction.

She knew that this herb-gathering trip not only allowed her to harvest a large number of medicinal herbs, but also gave her a deeper understanding of the growth and harvesting of medicinal herbs.

The mercenary group leader looked up at the approaching sunset, then turned to see that the people from Wan Yao Zhai had almost finished collecting the materials. He shouted to them, "Everyone, rest for one night after you're done. We'll return to Qingshan Town the next morning."

Seeing that everyone had settled down to rest, Xiao Yao walked up to Little Fairy Doctor, who was still digging for herbs, and said leisurely, "Little Fairy Doctor, haven't you finished picking them yet? By the way, what did you discover just now that made you smile like that?"

"When were you talking about?" she replied sweetly.

"It's about the mysterious expert who helped us just now. I turned around and saw you smiling at me, and I'm curious why."

Little Fairy Doctor looked around and found that everyone else was far away. So she pretended to be a wise person, leaned forward, and said in a soft and pleasant voice, "Do you think that mysterious person was you? Don't deny it. I saw you muttering to yourself. Although you didn't make a sound, is it really that coincidental? Don't worry, I will keep it a secret for you."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yao could only smile and say, "Alright, I was the one who did it. Don't tell anyone else, I don't like being too high-profile."

"Haha, okay, I got it." Little Fairy Doctor let out a clear and melodious laugh, then blinked and said softly, "What kind of power did you use back then? I've never seen it before. Can you tell me?"

"I used my own soul power at the time, after all, I am an alchemist, as for my cultivation level, I won't go into details."

"Wow! An alchemist. Too bad, I also want to become an alchemist, but I don't have the necessary qualifications."

"It's alright. I can refine any pills you need in the future, after all, we're friends."

Xiao Yao stared intently into Little Fairy Doctor's clear, bright eyes and said.

Little Fairy Doctor stood on a patch of grass swept by the wind, looking up at the afterglow of the setting sun shining on the forest, which appeared exceptionally beautiful. Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, reflecting on the grass and creating a peaceful and serene scene.

Her white dress fluttered gently in the breeze. At that moment, Little Fairy Doctor turned around with a smile and looked at Xiao Yao, saying, "Aren't we already friends?"

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully completed the hidden mission, become Little Fairy Doctor's friend, and gained Little Fairy Doctor's approval."

The system has directly integrated the Kunpeng Wings into the host's body, and they will be directly displayed when using the Fighting Wings.

As dawn broke, sunlight filtered through the gaps in the branches, casting golden dappled patterns on the ground.

At this point, the group continued their journey through the forest, returning to Qingshan Town.

In the afternoon, sunlight filtered through the treetops, bathing them in warmth and comfort.

They traveled along without encountering any attacks from magical beasts, which made them feel very fortunate.

As time went by, they finally emerged from the forest and arrived at the entrance to Green Mountain Town.

At this moment, the middle-aged man from before came to Xiao Yao, handed him the remaining five hundred gold coins, and said with a smile, "Young brother, you've worked hard."

Xiao Yao took the money and smiled, "It's nothing, no trouble at all."

"Xiao Yao, where do you plan to go next?" Little Fairy Doctor walked gracefully towards Xiao Yao, her eyes slightly lowered, her lips slightly curved, and her voice was very soft and pleasant.

Xiao Yao looked at the Little Fairy Doctor in front of him and replied, "I have been in the Monster Mountain Range for several months, so I need to go home to avoid worrying my family. Don't worry, we will meet again if we are destined to."

Looking at the handsome Xiao Yao in front of her, Little Fairy Doctor felt a surge of inexplicable emotions.

Little Fairy Doctor smiled slightly. Although she couldn't help feeling a little reluctant, she still mustered up her courage and said, "Take care, Xiao Yao." After saying that, she turned and left.
