To the Dragon Jar
Xiao Yi released the Fire Dragon Cauldron. With a thought, he summoned Gu Lu.
"Whoosh!" A silvery-white shadow suddenly came out of the Fire Dragon Cauldron. However, Xiao Yi was so shocked that his eyes nearly popped out of his head. This time, the silvery-white shadow was not the same as before. It flew out of the cauldron in the air.
After swiftly circling a circle in the sky above the medicinal garden, the silver-white coloured shadow stopped a short distance in front of Xiao Yi. With a pair of fleshy wings flapping, it bowed toward Xiao Yi and shouted, "Hee hee, master!"
Xiao Yi was stunned when he saw this.
The little pet with two wings, a long horn on its head and a pair of ribs in front of him, was actually Gu Lu?
Taking a closer look, was it Gu Lu?
The body and face were basically the same as before. However, a finger-like horn came out of the swelling on the top of the head, and the middle part of the bump became two thin wings and was slowly flapping.
After devouring the corpse poison, Gu Lu had actually mutated! It had turned into something that was not like a snake or a dragon!
Moreover, after Xiao Yi looked him up and down, he discovered that its cultivation had already changed from the middle stage to the late stage of the Kai Meng stage.
"Gu Lu, you've actually risen by one level and become like this?" Xiao Yi asked in surprise.
"Heehee, master, I don't know why it's like this, but, heehee, with the pair of wings, it's faster to move." After saying this happily, it flapped its wings and instantly came to the side of the herb garden 100 metres away. In a breath, it came back.
Mu Qingwan was even more stunned, she asked in surprise, "Xiao Yi, what kind of species is Gu Lu?"
Xiao Yi, who had always been so knowledgeable and so ready to answer Mu Qingwan's questions, shook his head and said, "I don't know. I've never seen or heard of this strange creature."
However, Xiao Yi had a vague feeling that the surprise that Gu Lu was going to be given in the future would definitely be more than this.
Gu Lu didn't care about its unknown identity at all. After helping Xiao Yi communicate with the fire of the Earth Yin, it flapped its new wings and happily enjoyed the feeling of flying.
Xiao Yi and Mu Qingwan were amazed.
However, after sighing, Mu Qingwan pointed to the Fire Dragon Cauldron and asked, "Xiao Yi, do you want to refine a new pill?"
"That's right! It's hard to predict how dangerous that Dragon Jar is. But at least I know that there's definitely miasma filling the earth that's always shrouded in thick fog. If I don't want to be disturbed by miasma, I have to refine a Spirit Pill!" Xiao Yi gave a few prescriptions as he spoke.
Mu Qingwan hurriedly picked up the herbs for Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and threw the herbs into the Fire Dragon Cauldron.
Two hours later, with a strong Spiritual Power, a delicate fragrance immediately came out of the Fire Dragon Cauldron.
However, Xiao Yi did not relax at all. His Divine Awareness locked onto the medicinal liquid and kept adjusting the size of the fire. It was not until the medicinal liquid gradually became solid that the fire was slowly removed.
After the Fire Dragon Cauldron cooled down completely, Xiao Yi removed the lid with a single wave of his hand.
Mu Qingwan immediately looked inside in surprise.
There was a strong fragrance wrapped in it. More than 20 white pills were lying quietly at the bottom of the tripod, and there were flowing lights around them. With just a glance, one could know that they were extraordinary.
"Grade 6 Level 4! Not bad!" Xiao Yi's Divine Awareness enveloped a spirit pill in satisfaction.
"A sixth grade spirit pill? Xiao Yi, you're amazing." Mu Qingwan was praising him from the bottom of her heart.
Xiao Yi smiled and placed all the pills into the Yu Feiyan bottle.
Three days passed quickly. At dawn on the fourth day, Xiao Yi said goodbye to Mu Qingwan and drove to the address mentioned by Qiangwei.
Since it was located in Tiandong Province, it was not far from Hai City.
After five hours of traveling, Xiao Yi finally arrived at a small town called the Ridge Village.
The town was located in a mountainous area and was very remote. There was only one hotel in the town, so it was easy for Xiao Yi to find the group of Qiangwei in the only hotel.
When Xiao Yi entered the hotel, Qiangwei and the other five people were just having lunch in the living room on the first floor.
Seeing Xiao Yi come in, the six people couldn't help but turn their heads together.
In the highest position sat an old man with extraordinary spirit and temperament. His eyes were dignified without anger, but there was a sorrow between his eyebrows. He must be the rich businessman from the Qi family mentioned by Qiangwei on the phone, and his name was Qi Siyuan.
On his right, there was a young man with slanted eyebrows and peach blossom eyes. From his appearance, he looked like the old man. Obviously, he was Qi Siyuan's relative. He was a warrior whose cultivation was similar to that of Qiangwei. He was in the early stage of Heaven Class.
The other three people next to him were also cultivators. Xiao Yi only glanced at them and could see that the man on the far right, in his fifties, with a gloomy face, was actually a master at the late stage of Qi-refining Realm. He was only one step away from the Foundation-building Realm. He had restrained his Qi. It seemed that his strength was extraordinary.
Of the two young people next to him, one was at the early stage of the Qi-refining Realm, and the other was at the middle stage of the Qi-refining Realm.
This made Xiao Yi's heart skip a beat. It was rare to see a cultivator in the mortal world. It was as rare as a phoenix's feather or a unicorn's horn. He didn't expect to meet three masters of Qi-refining Realm and above here.
However, as the saying goes, money makes the mare go. It seemed that this rich businessman named Qi Siyuan had really invested a lot in it. With the addition of two Heaven Class strong men, these three cultivators with Qi-refining Realm and above, such a team could basically dominate any corner of the world.
Xiao Yi changed his mind rapidly, but he also realized that it was not so easy to get the Origin Dew.
Qiangwei naturally didn't know what Xiao Yi was thinking. At the sight of Xiao Yi, she immediately stood up and welcomed him with excitement.
She was still wearing a graceful white dress, soft silk shoes, and red roses on her temples. It seemed that the flowers had become one of her symbols. The roses gave off a unique charm, which was really dazzling.
It was no wonder that the eyes of the two young men behind were reluctant to move away from her. They looked at her as if they were glued to her body.
"Mr. Xiao, we meet again!" Qiangwei greeted him warmly. However, seeing that Xiao Yi appeared alone, she was very puzzled. She looked behind Xiao Yi and could not help but ask, "Mr. Xiao, why, are you here alone? Where is the Taoist friend you promised to take with you?"
"It's me! " Xiao Yi said with a smile.
"It's you, Mr. Xiao?" Qiangwei was shocked and looked up and down at Xiao Yi. However, Xiao Yi was still a completely ordinary person, which made Qiangwei very embarrassed.
Xiao Yi didn't say anything to Qiangwei but turned around and looked at the old man behind him. He cupped his hands and said, "Are yo Mr. Qi? My name is Xiao Yi, and I'm a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. I heard that Mr. Qi is going to Dragon Jar this time. Although I'm not talented, I hope that I can do you a favour."
Before Qi Siyuan could say anything, the young man on his right snorted, stood up and said, "A Chinese Medicine doctor? Haha, what do you think we are going to do? Touring mountains? Kid, there is no need to be a waste here. If you want to join this team, there is only one condition: fighting skills! Even Ms. Qiangwei was able to join because she was skilled enough to defeat other opponents. Oh? Miss Qiangwei?"
Qiangwei nodded and looked at Xiao Yi with persuasion in her eyes, hoping that Xiao Yi would know the difficulty and retreat.
"Haha, of course, even if other people have the same skills as Miss Qiangwei, I will also ask my uncle to agree for Miss Qiangwei to join us. After all, Miss Qiangwei is so beautiful and charming." The young man walked to the front of Qiangwei with every step and said frivolously.
A look of disgust flashed in Qiangwei's eyes. However, as a slick social butterfly, she would not embarrass her employer in the first place. She smiled and didn't say anything to answer the question of the young man.
However, the young man was a pervert. He had long been fascinated by the unique charm of Qiangwei. Seeing Qiangwei smiling like a flower, he was burning with desire. He reached out his hand and was about to touch her delicate hand of her.
How could Qiangwei let him succeed? With a chuckle, she dissolved the young man's hands with a gesture of lowering her head without leaving any trace.
Failing to touch her hand as he wished, the young man became angry. The corners of his mouth slightly twitched, and he faced Xiao Yi with anger, "Boy, as I said, if you want to join this team, there is only one thing. That is the strength. We don't lack doctors. Before I get angry, hurry up and get out of here!"
After the young man finished speaking, he extended his hand and pushed it towards Xiao Yi's shoulder.
Who would've thought that Xiao Yi's body would sway so easily to avoid such a close-range push?
"Huh?" The youngster's palm missed its target. He couldn't help but let out a gasp of surprise as his brows furrowed. He crossed his legs and unleashed his other palm at Xiao Yi. The force behind his palm was even stronger.
Xiao Yi's face was still filled with a cold smile. His upper body once again shook in a casual manner, causing the young man to once again pat empty air.
The young man didn't have enough strength to stop, so he was almost scared away.
This time, everyone present was shocked. Xiao Yi in front of them was obviously without any cultivation. They didn't expect him to have such a swift body movement. The two evasive movements just now were almost untraceable. It was so swift that it seemed to be made by nature.
Qiangwei, in particular, didn't expect that Xiao Yi, who she had always regarded as an ordinary person, would make a Heaven Class expert suffer defeat. What the h*ll was going on? Did Xiao Yi have some unique means to hide his cultivation? Qiangwei's beautiful eyes suddenly radiated a sharp light.
However, the face of the young man in front of Xiao Yi was full of shame. He glanced at the bright-eyed Qiangwei and became even angrier.
With a red face, the young man raised his hands and threw himself at Xiao Yi like a thunderbolt. This time, he did not show any mercy and used all his strength.
"Ah..." Qiangwei couldn't help but scream. If he were hit by him, Xiao Yi would definitely die.
When the young man heard the caring scream of Qiangwei, he was even more jealous. He wanted to slap Xiao Yi into minced meat at once. He gnashed his teeth and said with a ferocious face, "Boy, I'm Qi Mingbo, and I'll be your grandson if I can't defeat you!"
