11: Copy the Evil Poison Body

The Xiao Yi Xian's Face was still very effective in front of the ordinary mercenaries and residents of Qingshan Town.

As soon as the Xiao Yi Xian finished speaking, a group of people voluntarily left.

Of course, there was no lack of stubborn individuals.

"No, why should he get special treatment!" Several mercenaries took the lead in jeering, refusing to leave.

Seeing this, the Xiao Yi Xian's beautiful Face immediately darkened, which amused Xiao Lei, who was standing nearby.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Lei also took a good look at the Xiao Yi Xian. She wore a blue dress, looking dignified and natural, and the gentle temperament she had accumulated over years of saving lives and healing the injured went straight to the heart.

Her pretty Face and seductive figure seemed to be hidden by this temperament.

"Huang San! What trouble are you causing? I already said I have something important to discuss with this Young Master! If you refuse to cooperate, then pay me back the consultation fees for all the times I treated you for free!"

Another reason the Xiao Yi Xian was so popular was that she often provided services for free.

Hearing the Xiao Yi Xian say this, Huang San immediately wilted. He couldn't remember how many times he had been treated by her, and since mercenaries were often injured, where was he supposed to find that much money for consultation fees all at once!

"Xiao Yi Xian Sister, I was wrong, I'll follow instructions! Isn't that enough?"

"Hmph! Don't let there be a next time!"

"It seems Miss Xiao Yi Xian is quite reputable here!" Xiao Lei teased with a smile. He was being so high-profile precisely because he wanted to see the Xiao Yi Xian look annoyed.

After all... contrast is what makes things interesting!

Two mercenaries were still unwilling to give up. They were injured and had to try. Thinking this, the two quickly walked to the front of the line.

"Xiao Yi Xian, us two brothers are injured and still bleeding. Could you treat us first?"

The two pretended to cover their wounds, but the Xiao Yi Xian spotted the problem with a single glance.

"Are you two trying to mess with me? Such small wounds, and they were obviously self-inflicted. Just bear it yourselves."

Being treated like a fool, the Xiao Yi Xian naturally showed no kindness.

Xiao Lei looked at the two dumbfounded mercenaries and almost burst out laughing, but thankfully he had received professional training.

Seeing Xiao Lei suppressing his laughter, the two mercenaries immediately felt their anger flare up.

Out of respect for the Xiao Yi Xian's Face, the two didn't dare say anything, as for the rest of the mercenaries... "We're not leaving! We'll wait right here until you finish resolving this matter before seeing patients!"

Initially, one mercenary started the chant, and then it spiraled out of control, with all the remaining mercenaries shouting together.

Xiao Lei thought it was great. They probably thought they had moved the Xiao Yi Xian, but in reality, they had only moved themselves.

Fei Yangyang: Mei Yangyang, don't worry, I'll wait outside the door... The others who had just left: ??? Are we... playing this game now? If you weren't going to leave, you should have said so earlier!

"Let's go inside and talk first!" Xiao Lei had no interest in caring what these mercenaries thought. Right now, he just wanted to copy the Calamity Poison Body.

"Young Master, please!"

The Xiao Yi Xian turned around, and contrary to her previous attitude when lecturing the mercenaries, she was extremely polite to Xiao Lei... "Young Master, are you truly an Alchemist!"

"Please forgive my rudeness, I'm just too excited. I've always wanted to become an Alchemist, but there are no Alchemists in Qingshan Town. I'm a little overwhelmed seeing one for the first time!"

The Xiao Yi Xian behaved extremely proactively, appearing completely different from the goddess-like demeanor she held while seeing patients.

As the saying goes... contrast!

[Target: A well-known Physician.]

[Cultivation: Eight Duan Dou Zhi Qi.]

[Cultivation Technique: None.]

[Dou Technique: ...]

...[Physique: Calamity Poison Body (Unawakened).]

[Replication time: Ten minutes.]

The replication time was surprisingly short for Xiao Lei, possibly because the Xiao Yi Xian's Poison Body was still unawakened, and her cultivation and Soul Strength were far below his own.

"Replicate." Xiao Lei transmitted a thought to the System in his mind.

"Stop calling me Young Master, Young Master. My name is Xiao Lei, you can just call me by my name."

"Then, Young Master Xiao Lei, could you check if I have the potential to become an Alchemist!"

The Xiao Yi Xian looked expectantly at Xiao Lei, her large eyes filled with admiration for Alchemists.

Fate was truly bitter. Perhaps when Xiao Lei became a Dou Saint, he would be able to think of a solution, but currently, Xiao Lei had no way at all.

"You have no talent for Alchemy!"

The calm words left Xiao Lei's mouth, but to the Xiao Yi Xian's ears, they sounded like a clap of thunder on a clear day.

This was like a casual remark you might make, which you might not care about, but which could sting someone for a lifetime... Of course, for the Xiao Yi Xian, Xiao Lei had no issue, as it was simply the truth.

"However, you possess another type of talent that is both envied and hated—and it is extremely powerful!"

The cultivation speed of the Calamity Poison Body is also unrivaled under heaven. If one has enough poisons, it might not be weaker than a Divine Grade Dou Di Bloodline.

In the original work, the Xiao Yi Xian did not Cultivate with all her strength because she feared the outbreak of the Poison Body, and she often suppressed the desire to consume poison, which is why she was still only a low-star Dou Saint during the Late Stage decisive battle.

Such powerful talent was definitely envied by countless people, yet the Xiao Yi Xian seemed uninterested. Her mind was currently consumed only by the realization that she seemed to have no hope of becoming an Alchemist.

"The Fighting Qi Continent is vast and boundless, with countless strange people and marvelous events. If your strength is sufficient, you might still find a way to become an Alchemist."

"I know of a Senior who, despite not possessing the talent of an Alchemist, still managed to refine some low-tier Medicinal Pills based on their own strength."

The person Xiao Lei spoke of was, of course, Valley Master Tang Zhen, the contemporary Valley Master of Burning Flame Valley.

"Really!" Hearing this, a slight sparkle reappeared in the Xiao Yi Xian's previously dimmed eyes, making Xiao Lei exclaim, "Good heavens!" The Xiao Yi Xian genuinely loved Alchemy from the bottom of her heart.

"Of course it's true!"

"Wait, you just mentioned that I possess a talent that is both envied and hated?" The Xiao Yi Xian felt like her little brain wasn't quite keeping up.

"Calamity Poison Body." This name, which seemed full of hatred and curses, was calmly uttered by Xiao Lei, yet the Xiao Yi Xian still looked utterly confused.

"The Calamity Poison Body, as the name suggests, is related to poison. Those who possess this Physique can Cultivate by consuming poisons, achieving astonishing speed in advancement."

"However, those who Cultivate the Calamity Poison Body are plagued by toxic Qi and suffer the agony of the Poison Body consuming their own form. When their cultivation reaches a high level, the toxic Qi may even fully erupt, devastating all life within a radius of several thousand miles, leaving not a blade of grass alive."

Every gift is marked with a price in destiny!

Of course, Xiao Lei was not included in that price!

"What! Is there any way to control it? I don't want to end up like that!"

The Xiao Yi Xian had spent her life saving people; how could she accept suddenly becoming a Poison Master who harms lives?

"The Fighting Qi Continent is so vast, so naturally there is a solution!"

"Furthermore, I have good news for you: your Calamity Poison Body has not yet undergone Awakening."

"The Awakening of the Calamity Poison Body requires poison as a catalyst. As long as you consume poison, the Calamity Poison Body will enter the Awakening stage, and it cannot be reversed!"

"I see. Then if I never consume poison for my entire life, can I avoid it?"

It must be said that, theoretically, this seemed to be the case.

Xiao Lei suddenly recalled an immune deficiency disease from his previous life. The patient was a child born without any immune cells, who could not recover from any bacterial infection.

The child was raised in a sterile ward but eventually contracted a bacterial infection and died.

There is no principle in this world where one can "guard against a thief for a thousand days."

The Xiao Yi Xian's idea was far too naive!

"You don't need to consider that. Can you guarantee that you won't encounter poison for your entire life? You are also a Physician; you should understand how common poison is. The reason we don't suffer abnormalities is that our bodies can resist these minute toxins."

"As long as these minute toxins accumulate sufficiently, your Calamity Poison Body will still erupt!"

The Xiao Yi Xian's Face turned ashen...
