Little Fairy Doctor

Blood Lotus Essence was an extremely rare high-grade medicinal ingredient. This kind of medicinal ingredient usually grew together with the Yellow Lotus Essence. Its rarity and similar appearance with the Yellow Lotus Essence made it difficult for someone who was unfamiliar with them to differentiate between the two. If Xiao Yan not remembering that in novel he founded it in the store he wouldn't had come here.

Blood Lotus Essence was also one of the key ingredients in making 'Blood Lotus Essence Pill'. When speaking of the 'Blood Lotus Essence Pill', it was also necessary to bring up the Qi Technique 'Flame Mantra' that Xiao Yan was practicing.

It should be known that the evolution of 'Flame Mantra' requires the consumption of a Heavenly Flame. Swallowing the Heavenly Flame, however, was not something safe.

The Heavenly Flame was extremely violent and it also possessed terrifying destructive properties. Even the special metals that were renowned for its hardness, would be unable to withstand being barbequed to the high temperature of the Heavenly Flame, much less a person's body.

Thus, in order to successfully consume the Heavenly Flame into the body, refine, then absorb it, some extremely cumbersome things must be prepared.

This 'Blood Lotus Essence Pill' was the most important one amongst them.

After consuming the 'Blood Lotus Essence Pill', a strange bloody layer will be formed on the surface of a person. This bloody layer can withstand being exposed to extreme heat. Only with its help could one get close to the Heavenly Flame and search for a chance to undertake the next step.

Xiao Yan randomly playing with the Blood Lotus Essence in front of shop assistant. After being silent for a while, he asked, "Are there any more Yellow Lotus Essence in this stop. I would like to buy in bulk."

Hearing this, the shop assistant was slightly stunned. He suspiciously swept his eyes across Xiao Yan. Although the Yellow Lotus Essence was only priced at only a hundred gold a piece, if it was bought in bulk, it would still require quite a hefty price.

After his suspicious gaze was shifted to the Space Ring on Xiao Yan finger, the misgivings on the shop assistant's face quickly disappeared and was replaced with a flattering smile, "Mister, please wait for a moment. I will immediately go and get them."

Xiao Yan nodded with a smile. He did not continue to focus his attention on the rare Blood Lotus Essence in his hand, Instead, he searched the countertop for other things, acting as though nothing had happened.

Not long after the shop assistant left, he hurriedly returned and placed the small wooden box he was carrying on the countertop. He smile and said, "Mister, there are fifty three Yellow Lotus Essences here. Are you planning to buy all of them?"

Xiao Yan smiled but did not answer. His gaze swept across the Yellow Lotus Essence in the wooden box. Moment later, disappointed by not founding the second Blood Lotus Essence amongst the Yellow Lotus Essence.

Xiao Yan let out a sigh from his heart but maintained a smiling face. From within the box, he randomly chose over twenty pieces before placing the Blood Lotus Essence among them. Facing the shop assistant he said, "Help me pack this and calculate."

"Mister, the bill amounts to two thousand four hundred gold coins." The shop assistant announced the price after counting the number of Yellow Lotus Essence with his sweeping gaze.

Xiao Yan nodded his head slightly and lifted his finger. He handed the pale green card containing five thousand goin coins that had appeared in his hand to the shop assistant before hurriedly storing the bunch of Yellow Lotus Essence into his storage ring.

After a brief silence, Xiao Yan suddenly faced the shop assistant who was swiping the card and asked, "Are the medical herbs here in the Mystical Beast Mountain Range?"

"Yes. The Mystical Beast Mountain Range is full of medicinal herbs. Our 'Thousand Medicine House' has our own team to gather medicinal herbs. But each time we enter the Mystical Beast Mountain Range, we have to spend large amounts of money to hire mercenaries as guards." The shop assistant, having completed a transaction, happily answered as he returned the card to Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan kept his things and nodded slightly then his eyes fell on the commotion outside knowing she have came he stopped and waited while listening to people's.

"Wow, it actually is the Fairy Doctor!"

"How beautiful, tsk tsk, what a narrow waist…"

"Idiot, do you wish to die? More than half of the mercenaries in Qingshan Town have been saved by the Fairy Doctor. If someone heard you, you may well lose your tongue."

Two men standing a short distance from Xiao Yan were conversing. When one of them uttered some dirty words, his companion quickly stopped him with a quiet lecture.

"I was just speaking trash...haha, haha." Feeling the unfriendly gaze from those around him, that man slightly paled and with an embarrassed face, hurriedly escaped from the medicinal shop with his friend.

Standing at a distance, he tilted his head and barely caught a glimpse of female figure in a through the gaps in the crowd.

Following the dispersal of the crowd, Xiao Yan finally managed to clearly see the face of the lady whom the crowd had clustered around.

The lady was wearing a light purple dress. She was not extremely beautiful but could be called an uncommon beauty. Her lightly smiling face emitted a fresh aura that was unique and greatly increased her charm.

Xiao Yan's gaze swept across the lady's body before finally landing on a narrow waist that was bound by a purple belt. Seeing the narrow waist that could not fill a hug, amazement flashed across his eyes.

Xioa Yan with amazement thought this women waist is the one with the narrowest and most delicate waist he ever seen in this life it will feel good to take her in his arms.

Xiao Yan stared at the Little Fairy Doctor who had sat down in her seat and attended to her injured patients.

He touched his chin and decided that he needs to quickly get to know her.

After standing at the same spot and taking another look at the beautiful picture-like scene before him, Xiao Yan walked out of this 'Thousand Medicine House'. He walked on the street for a while before glancing at the darkening sky and randomly found an inn at the end of the street. He rented a room and went. In the room, he slightly curled his legs and let out a heavy breath. Tightly grabbing the hilt of the heavy sword on his back with his palms, he lifted it off his back with a low groan and carefully leaned it against the side of the bed.

Immediately after the strange heavy sword left his body, Xiao Yan could feel that the Dou Qi in his body, like a river of water, swiftly and violently flow within his body.

Xiao Yan slowly let out a breath. All the pores on his body had suddenly opened up. The comfortable feeling caused Xiao Yan to joyfully let out a cry. This feeling of suddenly becoming strong was simply too satisfying.

Twisting his sore shoulders, Xiao Yan removed the huge bunch of Yellow Lotus Essence that he had just bought. From within, he picked out the Blood Lotus Essence and carefully placed it into a white jade box that he had retrieved from the storage ring. As for the remaining low-grade Yellow Lotus Essence, Xiao Yan simply dumped them at random into the storage ring.

"Phew… now that the Blood Lotus Essence is finally in my hand, all that I'm missing is the Ice Fire Spirit grass and a fourth rank Ice Attribute Monster Core before I can refine the 'Blood Lotus Pill'." Patting the jade box in his hand, Xiao Yan wiped his mouth and sighed, "It looks like it will not easy to find this things. Alas… successfully consuming the 'Heavenly Flame' will not be an easy task."

Xiao Yan sighed and shook his head. His sore body finally lay on the bed and he fell asleep...

The night quietly slipped by. When the sky began to brighten the next morning, the sleeping Xiao Yan opened his eyes punctually. During this period of living in the wild, he managed to accurately tune his internal clock.

After a night of deep sleep, within his body he feel great vigor.

From his bed, he sat up, crossed his legs and closed his eyes. The early morning hours were the best time to train his Dou Qi.

Following the increasingly steady breathing of Xiao Yan, the calm air around him suddenly acted like a wave as it began to oscillate, emitting a continuous stream of Dou Qi.

After the intense training sessions, Xiao Yan's skin was like a sponge. As long as any part of his skin came into contact with the Dou Qi around him, his numerous pores would rush to open and greedily swallow the continuous stream of Dou Qi.

While his pores were greedily swallowing the Dou Qi, most of the Dou Qi around Xiao Yan was being sucked into his body through his breath. Then, they passed through a few specially selected Qi pathes predetermined by the Qi method. It was subsequently refined and slowly deposited by Xiao Yan into a small, ever suspending, cyclone within him.

The Dou Qi training continued for over an hour. Only when the room was completely lit by the sunlight passing through the window did Xiao Yan finally stop and break his stance. A mouthful of slightly feculent breath was slowly released.

Xiao Yan's black eyes gradually opened and a pale yellow light flashed within them before subsequently disappearing into the deepest part of his eyes.

"At this rate, I might be able to become a six star Dou Zhe in half a year's time, this tough training is very effective." Xiao Yan stretched lazily and upon hearing the bone cracking sound from within his body, a smile appeared on Xiao Yan's face.

After jumping off the bed, Xiao Yan briefly washed his face in his room before walking back to the bedside and helplessly staring at the strange black broadsword.

Bending his legs slightly, Xiao Yan let out a deep breath. His arms bent slightly and like an eagle claw, firmly grabbed the sword's hilt. His feet stepped heavily on the ground as he called in a low voice, "Rise!"

With Xiao Yan's Dou Qi revolving around them, the strength of his arms was sufficient to chop down a large tree. When this kind of strength was used on the huge sword, however, it was barely enough to slowly lift it off the ground.

Xiao Yan bent his back forward; his face was already red and his breath was becoming ragged. With another low cry, the huge sword was finally thrown onto his back, instantly causing his body to sink towards the ground.

Luckily, Xiao Yan was prepared. He clenched his teeth and a moment later, his body slowly straightened.

"Dammit, it's still too hard …" Xiao Yan bitterly said as he wiped the cold perspiration from his forehead.

After patting his palm on the huge black sword, Xiao Yan once again opened his stride and headed out of his room.

While ready to go Magic Beast Mountain Range but knowing that this place is filled with danger. Walking alone within it would easily attract an attack from these Magic beasts. Therefore, he needs to join a mercenaries groups before entering the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

With Xiao Yan's current strength, he could mostly handle a rank one Magic Beast. Therefore, he did not have the ability to run around within the Magic Beast Mountain Range by himself.

Of course, this was only true if he excluded Yao Lao interfering to help him.

However, he can't rely on Yao Lao as it if he train with the help of Yao Lao it will meaningless . He needs to train his alertness and sense of danger.

Yao Lao also did not want Xiao Yan to become a coward who only knew how to hide behind another's back. Hence, he decided not to help him other than he fells Xiao Yan's life is in danger.

After walking to the the end of the street, Xiao Yan arrived at the other exit out of the town. This exit led to the Magic Beast Mountain Range because of it there were many mercenaries gathered here. There were voices crying out one after another, continuously calling out to those solo mercenaries who wished to enter the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

The mercenaries in the small town were divided into three categories. The first category were mercenary companies with strict rules. There were only three such groups within the Qingshan Town and they had around a hundred members each. Most of their members had at least the strength of a Dou Zhe and the leader of each of the three groups was a strong Dou Shi. It could be said that these groups were among the strongest forces in Qingshan Town.

The second type of category was comprised of mercenary teams that were formed at the last minute. These kind of teams would be disbanded after completing a mission. Their trust in each other as well as their ability to cooperate could not be compared to the formal mercenary company.

The third type of mercenary was comprised of the solo mercenaries. These people often had some hidden trump cards.

The currently shouting mercenaries at the entrance of the small town belonged to the second type.

Standing at one corner, Xiao Yan did not immediately join any mercenary team. But waited for Thousand Medical House team to come.

Just as Xiao Yan was waiting , a commotion erupted at the entrance of the small town. An shout echoed, "The 'Thousand Medicinal House' is planning to enter the Magic Mountain Range to gather medicinal herbs.

Accompanying them will be the Fairy Doctor. There are only fifty slots. For those who are a two star Dou Zhe and above, please hurry!"

The loud cry had caused the noisy entrance into the small town to become quiet. A moment later, everyone turned to face each other. The mercenaries who thought that they met the requirements immediately rushed towards the middle aged man from the 'Thousand Medicinal House'."

Blankly staring at the sudden raving mercenaries, Xiao Yan also rushed forward and joined the crowd.

Because The Fairy Doctor' was participating The fifty slots had caused people to fight over it. However, Xiao Yan managed to use his small body to squeeze through the gaps of the crowd and get to the front.

"There is still one more position!" The middle aged man smiled to the squeezing crowd as he waved the goat skill scroll in his hand.

"Me!" A young man said with a somewhat tender voice. He was slightly out of breath as he walked towards the middle age man.

"Huh?" Eyeing the young man in front of him who was only seventeen or eighteen, the middle aged man froze. He immediately smiled and said, "Little boy, our criteria is a two star! Dou Zhe!" The middle aged man emphasized the last four words. Obviously, he did not believe that this young man in his teens had achieved this requirement.

"Where has this child come from? To create trouble when his beard was not even grown."

"Move aside, little boy. Don't waste all of our time."

Seeing that the last spot was snatched away by a young man, the surrounding mercenaries immediately scolded.

Xiao Yan ignored these rantings as he took two step forward, He stood in line with a tree which was two arms thick. His fist suddenly tightened and a pale yellow Dou Qi formed a layer over it like a curtain of light. Then, with a low cry, Xiao Yan ruthlessly smashed his fist against the tree trunk, unleashing the ferocious force on his hand.

"Ka Cha."

Following the clear noise, the thick and strong tree fell onto the ground in front of everyone's eyes, lifting the dust from the ground.

"Is this enough?"

Clapping his hands, Xiao Yan asked the stunned middle aged man.

"Keke, little boy, you do have quite a great talent. To be able to reach a two star Dou Zhe at your age, a genius." Nodding his head in amazement, the middle aged man spoke to Xiao Yan with a smile, "Alright, this last spot is yours. The pay is five hundred gold coins and your job is to escort the 'Thousand Medicine House' medicine gathering team. I will pay you half of it first. The other half will be paid when we return."

"Alright." Xiao Yan smiled as he nodded, He was not interested in the five hundred gold coin remuneration. What he needed was the treasure he and she founded in mountain.

After seeing that the last spot was taken by this unknown little boy, the surrounding mercenaries immediately began to disperse.

As they left however, they did not forget to throw Xiao Yan a curious gaze.

The great talent needed to become a two star Dou Zhe at seventeen or eighteen was something that was a rare sight within Qingshan Town!
