It was already late.
Liu Xi was very drunk and staggered out of the Mitre Family Manor with a full stomach of wine.
Hai Bodong, who had accompanied Liu Xi all the way, repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay, saying that there were many empty rooms in the manor and hinting that a more interesting repertoire would be organized in the evening.
Liu Xi naturally politely refused. After bidding farewell to Hai Bodong, he got on the carriage and left in front of Hai Bodong and the other elders.
Return to the Liu Mansion.
The little medicine fairy walked up to Liu Xi, her nose slightly swelled, and she felt that Liu Xi only smelled of alcohol and not of femininity, and then smiled with satisfaction.
He supported Liu Xi and said warmly:
"Master, you are back!"
All the little movements of the little medicine fairy fell into Liu Xi's eyes, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart:
"The girls really have the potential to become detectives. If we adopt the repertoire prepared by Ebi, I'm afraid when I go back, I'll have to sleep in the study!"
Liu Xizui looked at the little medicine fairy and said with a drunken mouth: "Xian'er, why are you alone, where is Zi Yan?"
Speaking of Zi Yan, the little medicine fairy frowned slightly and explained:
"Qi Yan has had a rest. It seems that Zi Yan has become increasingly lazy lately, and she is clearly prone to lethargy. Now she likes to sleep when she is full, and she doesn't have the energy like before."
"Ouch?"
Hearing this, Liu Xi's expression immediately brightened and he thought about Zi Yan's situation.
"Sleepy… Could it be that he's about to advance? That's also possible. As an Ancient Taixu Dragon, Zi Yan is extremely talented. As long as she accumulates enough energy, advancement is a given!"
Thinking about it, Liu Xi smiled and said to the little medicine fairy, "Maybe it's not that bad. After Zi Yan wakes up tomorrow, I'll help her check her body. Zi Yan's body is unusual. Maybe it's the precursor to her advancement, or maybe it's Woolen Cloth!"
The little medicine fairy nodded slightly, agreed with Liu Xi's statement, and said, "Master, the water in the bath has boiled. Let's wash off the smell of alcohol first."
"Okay, please, Xian'er, please come and rub my back!" Seeing how attentive the little medicine fairy was, Liu Xi narrowed her eyes and said with a slight smile.
"Um!"
The little medicine fairy blushed and replied as delicately as mosquito silk.
...
Liu Xi sat down in the medicinal bath he had prepared, which calmed his mind and strengthened his body. He placed his hands on the edge of the barrel.
The little medicine fairy stood next to the wooden barrel with a red face, her jade hands wrapped in a towel. The little medicine fairy was actually taking a bath, and Liu Xi didn't pull her to take a bath with a mandarin duck or anything like that. ...
"Hey… convenient!"
Liu Xi's brain, which was slightly dizzy after being stimulated by alcohol, woke up at this moment and groaned softly.
Liu Xi, who had fully awakened, raised his hand and shook it. A gray-black scroll appeared out of thin air in his palm. He handed it to the little medicine fairy and said with a smile:
"Xian'er, when I attended the Mitre Family's banquet this time, an old man came out halfway. Coincidentally, he was the person I was looking for. After much effort, I finally succeeded…"
The little medicine fairy raised her head and looked at the scroll handed to Liu Xi with a slightly confused expression. She took off the towel wrapped around her hand, reached out to take the scroll, and opened it.
"The poisonous body of the catastrophe has an extremely strange and special constitution. It is extremely poisonous in nature and will kill anyone who touches it. When the poisonous body bursts out, life will cease for a thousand miles. At the same time, the owner of the poisonous body is devoured by thousands of poisons and dies by the method of breaking it, but by chance can completely control the poisonous body, so that the poisonous power in the body can be controlled at will."
"This control method is called the poison pill method. It condenses all the toxins accumulated in the body and finally turns it into a poison pill in the body. If a poison pill is formed, the poisonous body will gain a truly terrifying physique. ."
"Poison Pill Refining. Roughly speaking, three things are required: three kinds of strange fire, the demonic core of the seventh-level Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon, and the saliva of the Bodhisattva. At the same time, the poison is condensed using special methods, Dan..."
"Owner..."
The eyes of the little fairy doctor were full of excitement. Over the past few years, Liu Xi had gradually collected the materials needed for the poison pill method, allowing her to truly see the hope of changing her fate...
"When one of us breaks through to Duzong first and hunts down the seventh-level Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon, we will rush to Zhongzhou to completely solve your physical problem..."
Lu Xi said with a smile.
"Wow..."
Liu Xi stood up from the barrel and stretched. The water flowed down his skin and dripped into the barrel again.
"Sleep!"
A Fallen Heart Flame had been entrenched in Liu Xi's heart, which could be seen as bursting out of the bitter sea of cultivation. Normally, in order to complete his cultivation, Liu Xi only needed to worry about breaking through this bottleneck.
Before going to bed, Liu Xi still needed to apply a few more layers of seals to Yaotianhuo.
...
Noon the next day!
After Liu Xi got up, he was definitely late for breakfast, so he directly ordered the kitchen to prepare new food and deliver it. At this time, Zi Yan, who had also slept until noon, walked over with bleary eyes.
"Brother, Sister Xian'er, good morning!"
Zi Yan rubbed her eyes and said sleepily.
Lu Xi raised her head and looked at Zi Yan. He saw that the energy around Zi Yan was indeed showing signs of instability, so he said, "Zi Yan, come here, let me check your body!"
"Good!"
Hearing this, Zi Yan responded, then ran up to Liu Xi and said with a smile:
"Brother, what do you want to check? I'm not injured..."
Liu Xi didn't say anything. He placed his hands on Zi Yan's shoulders and released his soul power, surrounding Zi Yan and slowly invading Zi Yan's body.
Suddenly, Liu Xi seemed to have come to a huge purple lake. Everything in the lake was liquefied by the raging energy, emitting terrifying energy fluctuations.
Liu Xi then wanted to probe deeper, but in an instant, he encountered the strong resistance of this energy, trying to expel his soul power.
And in this short moment, Liu Xi could only discover that the surface of the seemingly calm lake was already seething, and there were already undercurrents within it, and only one explosion was left to cause the entire lake to boil completely.
Between breaths, Liu Xi regained all his spiritual strength, raised his eyes to look at Zi Yan with an innocent expression, and said with a smile:
"It's okay. I just want to confirm Zi Yan's physical condition. In the next period of time, you shouldn't act alone. The energy in your body has almost reached its limit, and you may enter an advanced state at any time. It's not safe to be alone."
"Real?"
Zi Yan blinked, her purple pupils shining with surprise, and an excited smile appeared on her small face.
Thanks to Liu Xi's intervention, Zi Yan had obtained a large amount of medical materials in advance and had sufficient energy reserves. It's normal for Zi Yan to advance faster.
...
Ten days later
Xuan Hao arrived at the Liu Mansion on behalf of the Alchemist Guild.
Lu Xi immediately called for the teacher to sit down, and the little medicine fairy also brought two cups of tea at the right time.
Liu Xixiao asked, "Master, why do you have time to come to this disciple today? If you have something to say, it is your disciple who should come to you."
Xuan Hao picked up a cup of tea, took a sip of tea, and explained, "This time, I am here on behalf of the Alchemist Guild. The selection for the Alchemist Conference is over. Tomorrow is the first round of the competition. The Guild hopes that you will come as well."
In fact, except for Xiao Yan, Liu Xi had no interest in this alchemy conference. However, since he had to stay in the imperial capital for a while, he might as well go and see the excitement.
Lu Xi smiled and agreed.
"No problem, the disciple will definitely come tomorrow!"
"Haha, don't forget to wear the sixth-grade alchemist uniform and look handsome," Xuan Hao ordered, naturally hoping that his disciple would be able to show off to the public.
Liu Xi said honestly and seriously: "Master, even if I don't dress up, despite my appearance, I'm still the most handsome guy in the room. Who can steal my attention?"
Xuan Hao laughed and said: "Haha, that's true too!"
