Two pairs of eyes met in the misty pool, and after a moment, Xiao Yan finally came to his senses. Seeing the rosy cheeks of Little Healer Immortal, he coughed violently and quickly averted his gaze. The sound of Xiao Yan’s cough pulled Little Healer Immortal out of her slight dizziness, and she dove into the stone pool like a mermaid, her enticing form vanishing under the dark water.
Seeing the ripples in the stone pool, Xiao Yan felt a bit embarrassed. This really had nothing to do with him; he had just finished circulating his Dou Qi when he opened his eyes and saw this scene.
“Splash!”
Amidst Xiao Yan’s embarrassment, the water in the nearby pool began to ripple, and then a still slightly blushing head emerged. However, at this moment, only Little Healer Immortal’s head was visible, with the rest of her body hidden beneath the dark waters.
Her cheeks were still faintly blushing, and such a delicate look, if seen by the Poison Sect, would likely shock them speechless. Who could have imagined that the Heavenly Poisoness of the Rising Cloud Empire, feared for her vicious reputation, could show such a charming and bashful side?
“Cough… uh… what are you… doing?” Xiao Yan dryly laughed, looking awkwardly at Little Healer Immortal’s teasing gaze.
Little Healer Immortal was speechless and glared at Xiao Yan, replying sullenly, “What am I doing? Helping to suppress your demonic poison spot, of course.”
Xiao Yan let out a hollow laugh, scratching his head, and felt unexpectedly restrained. It was his first time being face-to-face in a pool with a woman in such a way.
Seeing Xiao Yan’s rare embarrassment, Little Healer Immortal couldn’t help but smile, and then she softly giggled.
Xiao Yan was slightly mesmerized by the beautiful smile spreading across her face. Such a gentle smile was just as charming as it had been back in the Green Mountain Town.
“You still look prettiest when you smile,” Xiao Yan whispered.
Little Healer Immortal paused, then lowered her eyelids slightly. A slender, jade-like arm emerged from the pool, idly swirling the water. She murmured, “In the Rising Cloud Empire, I am known as the Heavenly Poisoness. From now on, as long as the threat of the Calamity Poison Body remains, I can never come into contact with anyone. The closer the Calamity Poison Body is to erupting, the more dangerous it becomes to those around me.”
Xiao Yan sighed softly, saying, “Don’t worry, I will do my best to find the materials needed to control the Calamity Poison Body. Once you can fully control it, all problems will be solved.”
Little Healer Immortal smiled slightly and then gathered her spirit. Her arms moved gracefully, like a mermaid, slowly approaching Xiao Yan. Her beautiful eyes fixed on the demonic poison spot on his chest, and she nodded, saying, “The spread of the demonic poison spot has slowed down considerably. With the power of this poisonous water, it seems that it shouldn’t have such a noticeable effect?”
“Ha ha, I have three different types of heavenly flames in my body. Ordinary poisons don’t have much effect on me. Although the demonic poison spot is an exception, at least the three heavenly flames can hinder it,” Xiao Yan smiled and said.
“It truly is incredible. Even the demonic poison spot planted by a Battle Sect can be suppressed. No wonder it is the most coveted power on the continent…” Little Healer Immortal also nodded in surprise, then pondered, “But this is still not enough. Next, I will use my body as a medium to draw the poison from the pool through my body and then thoroughly suppress the demonic poison spot. This should buy you enough time to find a Dou Zun to purify you.”
Xiao Yan nodded solemnly, saying, “In that case, I’ll trouble you.”
“Do we need to be so formal?” Little Healer Immortal chided, a blush appearing on her cheeks, and she said softly, “Close your eyes. You are not allowed to open them without my permission!”
Hearing this, Xiao Yan understood and forced a laugh, closing his eyes slowly.
Seeing that Xiao Yan had closed his eyes, Little Healer Immortal finally relaxed. She waved her hand in front of him, bit her lip lightly, and slowly rose from the pool.
Her snow-white, bare body emerged from the pool, dark water tracing her enticing curves, finally dripping back into the pool, creating ripples.
Even though Xiao Yan had his eyes closed, Little Healer Immortal still felt her cheeks burning fiercely. Taking a few deep breaths, she suppressed the strange feeling in her heart. Forming a hand seal, a faint suction force emanated from her body, and a small whirlpool appeared on the surface of the pool. As the whirlpool’s speed increased, pitch-black poison slowly infused into her body, traversing through it and finally gathering at her slender fingers.
Her once jade-like fingers now turned black, and her expression became serious. She gently touched the blackened fingertips with her white nails, and a drop of vivid red blood welled up at the tip of her finger. The blood droplet did not fall but clung tenaciously to her fingertip, a tiny, glaring blood bead.
Looking at the blood, Little Healer Immortal’s expression became even more somber. This blood was the most terrifying aspect of the Calamity Poison Blood, which even the powerful Battle Sect Scorpion Elder Rock could not survive. It was evident how deadly it was.
Exhaling a long breath, Little Healer Immortal focused intently. After a moment, her slender fingers slowly moved, finally pausing at the position of the demonic poison spot on Xiao Yan’s chest. With a determined bite on her silver tooth, her delicate hands danced!
As her fingers moved, thin black threads shot out from her fingertips, forming strange runes around the demonic poison spot. Each burst of black threads left a tinge of the Calamity Poison Blood stuck to her fingertips.
With the black threads surrounding it, the demonic poison spot sensed something, and countless poisonous lines shot out like sharp arrows, targeting the surrounding runes.
“Hmph!” Seeing the change, Little Healer Immortal coldly hummed, accelerating her finger movement, and the black rune lines became increasingly viscous.
The poisonous lines from the demonic poison spot bounced off the viscous runes. Seeing the failure, Little Healer Immortal heaved a sigh of relief.
Just as she was about to complete the runes, the demonic poison spot unleashed a thick, black line with immense venom.
Seeing the fierce attack, Little Healer Immortal’s expression changed, and her fingers moved faster, almost leaving a trail of shadows. The poisonous black line collided with the runes, but this time, it was not repelled. The black line contained a vast amount of Dou Qi, and it tore through the runes with brute force, resembling a monstrous snake ready to break through.
With a cold gaze, Little Healer Immortal watched the poisonous black line tear through the runes. Just as it was about to break through, she flicked her finger, and the drop of Calamity Poison Blood streaked out, splashing onto the intricate runes. As the blood splashed, the runes burst into a crimson glow, forming a web of black threads!
“Swish!” The poisonous black line crashed into the web of partially red-streaked black threads, slowing down its momentum. After a few moments, it froze just as it was about to break through.
Not relaxing, Little Healer Immortal moved her fingers, intending to lock the runes. But just as her hand sign started, the frozen poisonous black line suddenly contracted, and a thin black thread shot out, breaking through the last layer of the runes!
Seeing the black thread break through, Little Healer Immortal swiftly completed her hand sign, and the runes around the demonic poison spot burst with a crimson light, sealing it entirely.
Sealing the runes, Little Healer Immortal noticed the escaped black thread. Her expression changed slightly. As she prepared to destroy it, she was surprised to see that Xiao Yan’s body temperature had suddenly risen, and a green flame appeared around the black thread, enveloping it. It seemed like he intended to refine it.
Under the intense green flame, the black thread writhed violently, and the vast Dou Qi within it began to show…
“Is he trying to refine the Dou Qi in the demonic poison spot for himself?” Little Healer Immortal’s eyes widened in surprise, and she sighed inwardly. Though the heavenly flames in Xiao Yan’s body couldn’t completely refine the demonic poison spot, they could deal with the escaped toxic threads.
“Though this thread is tiny, it contains refined Dou Qi. If he can refine it, it will boost his strength. This guy… he’s really bold.”
