It's simply that after activating the Calamity Poison Body, he found himself unable to control his craving for poisons and was afraid that if this continued, it would cause damage to Green Mountain Town. Therefore, he wanted to ask Xiao Yan for help and find out how to control his craving for poisons.

'Unfortunately, this is a problem with my constitution, and I have no way to solve it...' Shaking his head, Xiao Yan walked towards the location of Little Fairy Doctor.

After turning a few corners of the street, the noise gradually faded away. Xiao Yan walked slowly along the quiet path, and after a while, a rather unique little manor came into view.

Outside the manor, the defenses were tight, with more than a dozen fully armed guards stationed there.

After marveling at the cautiousness of the owner of Wan Yao Zhai, Xiao Yan swaggered towards the main gate of the manor.

The guards acted as if they didn't see Xiao Yan at all, letting him walk directly into the manor. Just like the guards at the main gate, the guards patrolling inside the manor also ignored Xiao Yan, who was moving around freely within the manor.

'It seems it's not what I thought...' Standing more than ten meters away from Little Fairy Doctor's house, Xiao Yan looked at the four 'guards' beside him with great interest.

'Surveillance? Protection?'

The four guards' eyes would occasionally sweep over Little Fairy Doctor's house, which was more than ten meters away. Although they had seen many guards like this along the way, this was the first time they had seen guards like these four.

'It seems she hasn't been having a good time lately?' With a slight chuckle, Xiao Yan walked towards Little Fairy Doctor's house.

The moment Xiao Yan pushed open the door, he smelled a unique medicinal fragrance.

"Poisoning someone in your own room? Aren't you being way too cautious?"

The little fairy doctor, who was making medicine in the room, looked up the moment the door was pushed open and saw Xiao Yan looking at her with a smile.

"You just walked in like that? They didn't even come to announce your arrival," Little Fairy Doctor beckoned to Xiao Yan. "Come on, there's a slow-acting poison in the room. Even a Great Dou Master would be affected if they inhaled it." As she spoke, Little Fairy Doctor took out a small jade bottle from her bosom.

Are you sure this is a notification?

As Xiao Yan walked to Little Fairy Doctor's side, letting her drip a drop of pale red liquid from her jade bottle onto his hand, he raised an eyebrow and asked.

Chapter 148: A Conspiracy Against Wan Yao Zhai?

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Little Fairy Doctor stopped applying the medicine to the back of Xiao Yan's hand.

"What do you mean?" Little Fairy Doctor looked up at Xiao Yan seriously.

“Those four men outside kept glancing warily at your room, looking like they were afraid you’d run away,” Xiao Yan shook his head and laughed. “They might have been on guard duty when you left the room, or even when your acquaintances came in after being informed, but I didn’t get in through normal means.”

"So... am I being monitored?" Little Fairy Doctor wasn't an idiot. After hearing Xiao Yan's straightforward words, she naturally understood what he meant.

"Surveillance under the guise of protection," Xiao Yan nodded and asked, "So, why didn't you notice? You were watching me warily as soon as I arrived at that cliff."

Xiao Yan was very curious about this. Little Fairy Doctor had also struggled alone in Qingshan Town, so it was hard for her to trust the guards just because they weren't guarding the door properly.

Xiao Yan's words made Little Fairy Doctor frown. Instead of defending the guards... or rather, Mr. Yao of Wan Yao Zhai's 'eyes', she began to think about whether she had exposed anything during this time.

After pulling up a chair and sitting down, Xiao Yan calmly waited for Little Fairy Doctor's next reaction.

"...Do you know what happened in Qingshan Town in the past month?" After a long while, Little Fairy Doctor suddenly spoke up.

"what happened?"

Noticing that Little Fairy Doctor seemed to be in a bad mood, as if she was suppressing her anger, Xiao Yan blinked and made a gesture of listening attentively.

“Lifie, the name of the assistant who betrayed me,” Little Fairy Doctor exhaled and said softly, “The first thing I did after returning from the Monster Mountain Range was to poison her with a colorless and odorless poison that could kill her within two days… Of course, it only works on people at the Battle Qi stage.”

As if wanting to see Xiao Yan back down, after introducing the characteristics of the poison she was using, Little Fairy Doctor paid special attention to Xiao Yan's reaction. Only after finding that Xiao Yan was quite calm and his face was completely expressionless did she continue.

Next, Little Fairy Doctor recounted how, after she returned to Green Mountain Town, rumors suddenly spread throughout the town that a treasure was hidden in the Monster Mountain Range, and in a very short time, the rumors spread throughout the entire town, even attracting all the mercenaries to go and search for it.

The cave, which had long been emptied, was naturally empty of anything. However, just as the excitement surrounding the treasure was about to die down, news suddenly came from Mu She, the leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, that Lifi and the second leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group had disappeared more than half a month ago.

The news was confirmed by Little Fairy Doctor, who was unaware of the situation. After that, all the mercenaries believed that the second leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group had found the treasure with Lifey and then fled far away.

"Just asking..." Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan interrupted Little Fairy Doctor's narration, "The Wolf Head Mercenary Group... is that the mercenary group founded by the father of Mu Li, whom I defeated? That night, besides Mu Li, there seemed to be only the Third Leader?"

“Yes,” Little Fairy Doctor’s mood calmed down after the long narration. She nodded gently and continued, “Gan Mu, the second leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, bullies others in Qingshan Town because he thinks he has the strength of a nine-star Dou Zhe. He has a despicable personality, and most people in Qingshan Town have a very bad impression of him.”

"At the same time, because the second and third leaders have disappeared, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group has been somewhat down on its luck during this period. Although it is still not comparable to ordinary mercenary groups, the original second and third mercenary groups have completely surpassed the Wolf Head Mercenary Group."

After explaining the current situation of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, Little Fairy Doctor began to recount what had happened during this last period of time—

After several days of anxious anticipation, the Mu Snake did indeed appear as Little Fairy Doctor had predicted. However, the Mu Snake did not hide in Little Fairy Doctor's residence to ambush her. In fact, the Mu Snake, which Little Fairy Doctor had been wary of for so long, did not come to find her!

Early that morning, Mu She led all the remaining mercenaries of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group to surround Wan Yao Zhai.

"Mr. Yao, please come out for a chat!" Mu She, standing in front of dozens of people, looked at the sign of Wan Yao Zhai and shouted loudly.

"Mr. Yao is not here." When Mr. Yao of Wan Yao Zhai is not here, Little Fairy Doctor is the leader of all the staff.

Upon reaching the entrance of the herbal medicine shop, Little Fairy Doctor looked at the dozens of mercenaries outside and loudly replied, "If Commander Mu wishes to find Mr. Yao, please proceed to Mr. Yao's manor!"

"Thank you for informing me, Little Fairy Doctor!" After giving Little Fairy Doctor a deep look, Mu She waved his hand and left with dozens of people.

This polite behavior left the Little Fairy Doctor, who was preparing to poison the damsel in distress, and the mercenaries who were watching the spectacle and hoping to find a chance to play the hero and save the damsel in distress, completely bewildered.

And this was the only conversation between Mu She and Xiao Yi Xian that day. Xiao Yi Xian didn't even understand why Mu She came to the herbal medicine shop to find Mr. Yao so early in the morning, even though everyone in Qingshan Town knew that Mr. Yao of Wan Yao Zhai never went to his shop so early in the morning!

It wasn't until all the members of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group had left and Little Fairy Doctor began changing the bandages for the other mercenaries that she learned that Mu She had brought a coffin with him when he came over that morning. Inside the coffin was the body of the second leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, whom everyone in Qingshan Town believed had found the treasure and fled!

The body was found at the bottom of a cliff in the valley east of the Monster Mountain Range. The first person to see the body said that he had fallen to his death. Although the others who saw the body could not say what caused the death, the thin body did resemble the second leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.

The reason Mu She sought out Mr. Yao that day was to force Mr. Yao to hand over Li Fei.

"I can even forgo the treasure, but you must hand over that Lifei!" Little Fairy Doctor laughed sarcastically. "It's said that Mu She was shouting like that outside this manor that day."

"interesting……"

After hearing Little Fairy Doctor's story, Xiao Yan couldn't help but laugh, "The Second Regiment Commander, who was thought to have found the treasure with your female assistant and then fled, had his body found at the edge of the Monster Mountain Range. Then Mu She took his body directly to Mr. Yao to demand an explanation..."

"If you hadn't said from the beginning that your female assistant had been poisoned with a lethal poison, I would have even suspected that the decline of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group was orchestrated by Mr. Yao of Wan Yao Zhai."

"In fact, this is how Wan Yao Zhai and Mr. Yao have been perceived in Qingshan Town during this period."

Little Fairy Doctor stood up, turned around and bent down to pour two cups of tea on the table next to her. After placing one cup next to Xiao Yan, Little Fairy Doctor continued, "Everyone believes that Mr. Yao poisoned the second commander of the Wolf Head Regiment, and that if Mr. Yao is not restrained, he will destroy Green Mountain Town since he has already obtained the treasure in the cave."

"Destroy Green Mountain Town?" Xiao Yan almost burst out laughing. "Where did this rumor come from? It's not Mu She's doing it again, is it?"

“It seems so,” Little Fairy Doctor took a sip of tea. “However, in reality, no one should believe it. Everyone, including Mu She, should think that Mr. Yao got the treasure in the cave and wanted to gather more people to force Mr. Yao to hand over the treasure.”

"So that's why the manor here is so heavily guarded?" Xiao Yan said knowingly. "But... since the guards are so tight, how did you activate the Calamity Poison Body? Is it because you want to protect yourself in the riots that will happen in the future?"

"No..." At this point, Little Fairy Doctor frowned, biting her red lips with her pearly teeth, her face full of resentment, "On the morning after the Mu Serpent came to cause trouble, I discovered that the Calamity Poison Body had been activated. It seems that someone put some kind of lethal poison in my house..."

After the Calamity Poison Body was activated, Little Fairy Doctor's resistance to poisons decreased, and she frequently took some poisons that were not fatal. It was precisely because of this that her strength increased rapidly in less than a month.

"In your room?" Xiao Yan's eyes widened slightly. "Anyone you suspect?"

“Before you came, I always thought it was Mu She who did it,” Little Fairy Doctor sighed softly. “After all, Lifei told Mu Li that I had found the treasure, so there’s no reason for Mu Li to know, but his father doesn’t.”

"Moreover, Mu She said that his second commander was dead, but the face of the corpse had long been destroyed due to a fall or other reasons. The reason it was thought to be the second commander of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group was because of his thin physique. At that time, I suspected that Mu She went to the medicine shop early in the morning not to find Mr. Yao, but to confirm whether I was in the medicine shop."

"After confirming that I was in the herbal medicine shop, Mu She went to the manor without any hesitation, intending to lure Mr. Yao and all the manor's guards out so that his second commander could poison my residence."

"But after discovering that the manor's guards were actually monitoring you, you suspected that Mr. Yao had poisoned you?" The logic was very simple, and Xiao Yan directly spoke the second half of the sentence for Little Fairy Doctor.

“That’s right.” Little Fairy Doctor nodded.

"So, why did you smash that jade piece?" Having heard about the recent situation in Qingshan Town and all the farces, what Xiao Yan now wanted to know was what Little Fairy Doctor's intentions were when she smashed that soul jade piece.

"Mu She said he would give Mr. Yao a few days to consider," Little Fairy Doctor said with a snort, "Tomorrow is the deadline. I was even thinking of asking you for help to save Mr. Yao during tomorrow's interrogation and riot, since he suffered this calamity purely out of nowhere..."

"And now?" Xiao Yan asked with great interest.

"I'll confront them both tomorrow," Little Fairy Doctor breathed a sigh of relief, "I hope you can..."

"To protect you from getting hurt?"

“No, I hope you can guarantee that no one will be able to leave this manor tomorrow.” Little Fairy Doctor shook her head and said softly.

"Even if they were innocent mercenaries who were dragged in?"

"Innocent mercenaries?" Little Fairy Doctor sneered. "The other two mercenary groups had already issued statements, expressing their hope that mercenaries outside the Wolf Head Mercenary Group would not be blinded by profit and would not harm innocent people. However, the shop assistants in the herbal medicine shop still suffered heavy casualties. If I hadn't had poison for self-defense, I might have also been poisoned..."

"Those who will appear at this manor tomorrow may be innocent, but since they're already here, they shouldn't leave."

"Cut the weeds out completely, very good, I admire you." Xiao Yan clapped.

At this moment, Xiao Yan didn't know whether to say that the activation of the Calamity Poison Body had affected Little Fairy Doctor's temperament, or whether Little Fairy Doctor was originally such a decisive and ruthless person.

This manor alone has seventy or eighty guards and servants. Even if only the Wolf Head Mercenary Group comes tomorrow, there will still be more than one hundred and fifty people. If we add some mercenaries who are just there for the fun or want to take advantage of the situation, the number of people in this manor tomorrow may exceed two hundred, or even three hundred!

"Mu She is a two-star Dou Shi, but what about Mr. Yao?"

“A one-star Dou Shi,” Little Fairy Doctor paused after saying this, “that’s what he announced to the public. Although there’s definitely something wrong with the star rating, he should still be a Dou Shi.”

"Then, do you have any poison that can render a Dou Shi unable to fight?" Xiao Yan asked. "Most poisons are ineffective against Dou Shi who wear Dou Qi veils, unless you can penetrate their Dou Qi veils with your own Dou Qi."

“If it were a month ago, I certainly wouldn’t have had such a poison,” Little Fairy Doctor smiled. “However, the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture happens to contain poisons that can be used against Dou Shi and Da Dou Shi, and I also happen to have the poisonous herbs that are needed.”

"Then, we'll await your performance," Xiao Yan said with a smile.

In the somber atmosphere of the hall, everyone remained silent, not daring to make the slightest sound, because they could all sense the chilling killing intent emanating from the man at the head of the hall.

“Gan Mu…” Mu She coldly uttered the name of the second leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.

"Yes, yes!" The gaunt man, Gan Mu, who was considered dead by most people in Qingshan Town, trembled and stood up shakily.

"Little Fairy Doctor is still not poisoned?" Mu She stared at Gan Mu and said coldly.

“Yes…yes,” Gan Mu swallowed hard. “I’ve been adding Boss Yao’s medicine to the food at the manor every day. Logically speaking, apart from the guards and servants who have already taken the antidote, no one should have been spared…”

"That's right?" Mu She sneered. "Your 'that' will cost us a huge amount of treasure, do you know that?"

"Perhaps... the poison that Boss Yao gave us was fake?"

"Fake?" Mu She scoffed. "If you hadn't failed that day, would we have needed to cooperate with that venomous snake?"

Gan Mu shrank back, not daring to speak. He had clearly put the poison that Mu She had prepared on Xiao Yi Xian's bed that day. Normally, he should have seen the dazed Xiao Yi Xian the next day. That's why he arrived at the manor very early the next day...

What we saw was a perfectly normal Little Fairy Doctor...

"Alright, just seeing you is enough to make me sick," Mu She sighed. "Get ready tonight, tomorrow... ha, I'm not going to share the treasure with that venomous snake!"

the other side.

"Prepare tonight, tomorrow... Heh, once we find out the location of the treasure, we'll strike!"

Chapter 149 The Poison of the Foot (Part 1)

The next day

Just as Little Fairy Doctor began packing her things, there was a knock at the door, and at the same time, a middle-aged man's voice came in: "Little Fairy Doctor, are you there?"
