105: Chapter 105 A bitter medicine for heaven, not a way for him to commit suicide.

"What reason?" Yao Ling looked at Xun'er with an expectant gaze.

"The reason—didn't Brother Xiao Ting already write it in the Diary?" Xun'er replied softly. "He wants to cultivate Cao Ying from the Pill Tower to give your Medicine Clan a little shock."

"Whether Cao Ying can shock you is hard to say, but given Brother Xiao Ting's current growth speed, by the time he participates in the Pill Tower Convention, he will likely already be able to refine Ninth Grade Pills."

"Brother Xiao Ting appears lazy and carefree on the surface, but in reality, he has a personality that goes all out in everything he does. He will surely become famous throughout the Central Plains by then."

"A peerless monster who is only about twenty-five years old, possesses a Heavenly State Soul, can refine Ninth Grade Pills without any special bloodline, and is inextricably linked to an outcast of the Medicine Clan... It would be perfectly natural for you to come and test him out of curiosity then."

Yao Ling had to admit that the plan Xun'er provided was indeed reliable.

"But in that case, wouldn't I have to wait seven years to see Xiao Ting?" Yao Ling felt this was too long; she was already falling too far behind the other women.

"Indeed, seven years is a bit long." Xun'er paused her page-turning, and after a slight deliberation, she said, "The clan has been urging me to return. I plan to delay for another three years, after which I must return to the clan."

"In the Jia Ma Empire and the Black-Corner Region, it is no longer suitable for anyone else to appear by Brother Xiao Ting's side in a seemingly reasonable manner."

At this point, Xun'er suddenly looked up at Yao Ling. "I do have a way to let you meet Brother Xiao Ting at roughly the same time as Sister Huo Zhi, but it would require your brother to suffer a little."

"What way?" Yao Ling felt that as long as the plan was feasible, it was fine for Yao Tian to make some appropriate sacrifices.

Old Yao had been wronged by Yao Wangui of the Medicine Clan and had suffered for so many years.

As long as she and Old Yao could become friends with Xiao Ting, the future would be bright; Yao Tian suffering a little bit was nothing.

"Have Yao Tian go to the Yan Clan to propose marriage, saying he wants to marry Sister Huo Zhi," Xun'er offered her idea. "When Sister Huo Zhi comes to the Black-Corner Region and meets me, you and Yao Tian will have a suitable reason to come along."

The women: "???"

"That is indeed a method," Yao Ling said, moved by the idea.

"Consider my opinion too." Huo Zhi wore a speechless expression and suggested in return, "If we're talking about being reasonable, wouldn't it be better to have Yao Tian go to the Gu Clan to propose marriage?"

"Hehe." Xun'er smiled faintly, speaking heart-stabbing words in a calm tone. "I want Yao Tian to suffer a bit; Sister Huo Zhi, you straight up want Yao Tian's life."

"I didn't mean that," Huo Zhi flatly denied.

"How could you not?" The corners of Medusa's lips curled slightly as she said playfully, "If Xiao Ting knew about this, Yao Tian would be seeking his own death. Proposing to you would at most result in him suffering a bit at your hands."

"That's hard to say," Huo Zhi immediately retorted. "Xun'er isn't the only one who can let Xiao Ting 'eat soft rice.' If he and I develop mutual feelings by then, Yao Tian would still be seeking his own death."

The women were somewhat surprised that Huo Zhi could say such a thing, but they could all understand.

As a descendant of an Emperor Clan, even if she didn't consider herself and only thought of the Yan Clan, it was normal for Huo Zhi to have such thoughts.

"In any case, I've given the method. As for the specific operations, you can decide for yourselves." Xun'er's beautiful eyes flickered as she began to see her guests out. "Sister Huo Zhi, it's about time for you to leave."

"Sister Yao Ling too. Brother Xiao Ting is almost here."

Huo Zhi and Yao Ling both had very high soul states and naturally sensed that fluctuation, so they immediately rose to take their leave.

After the two left, Xun'er looked at Yun Yun again. "Sister Yun Yun, aren't you leaving yet?"

"I'm leaving, but there's one more thing to say." Yun Yun looked at Queen Medusa. "Queen Sister, you wouldn't mind acting out a play with me, would you?"

Queen Medusa raised an eyebrow. "This Queen's appearance fee isn't cheap."

Boom!

When Xiao Ting walked into Xun'er's courtyard, he heard the sound of an explosion.

Immediately after, he saw Yun Yun's figure appear in the sky, followed by Queen Medusa; both used their Dou Qi Wings to fly into the high altitude.

"Xun'er, what's the situation?" Xiao Ting walked quickly into the courtyard. He sighed in relief after finding Xun'er and then asked, "Why did Queen Medusa start fighting with Yun Yun?"

"The Queen found a Rank 6 spirit medicine in the Magical Beast Mountain Range and fought a Rank 6 magical beast for it. Yun Yun of the Cloud Mist Sect sensed the Queen's aura and followed her secretly. She was discovered by the Queen, and the two started fighting." Xun'er recounted the script Yun Yun had prepared.

The plot was simple, but it was indeed reasonable, so there was nothing that felt out of place.

Most importantly, it wasn't entirely a lie. There really was a Rank 6 spirit medicine guarded by a Rank 6 magical beast, but the person who discovered it was Yun Yun. She couldn't beat it alone, so she invited Queen Medusa to act together.

That Rank 6 spirit medicine was no ordinary one; it was the shape-transforming grass, one of the main ingredients for refining the Rank 7 Shapeshifting Pill.

Medusa stated she wanted the grass, and Yun Yun didn't refuse, but requested that she accompany her in acting afterward.

"Do you know what spirit medicine it is?" Xiao Ting asked curiously.

"Sister Medusa said it's shape-transforming grass, otherwise she wouldn't have fought for it," Xun'er replied softly.

"Queen Medusa has quite good luck," Xiao Ting lamented.

Afterward, he wrote this matter into the Diary.

[Yun Yun is only a Three-star Dou Huang.]

[She dared to fight the Amethyst Winged Lion King, a Rank 6 beast comparable to a mid-stage Dou Huang, and on its own territory at that.]

[Now she even dares to fight Queen Medusa, who is at the Peak Dou Huang level.]

[I'm starting to admire her courage.]

The women: "..."

[Xun'er]: Sister Yun Yun, I'm impressed.

[Xiao Yi Xian]: Impressed.

[Medusa]: You're so brave.

[Yun Yun]: You all know the reason, is there a need to tease me like this?

[Qing Lin]: Then Sister Yun Yun, what was your mindset when you challenged the Amethyst Winged Lion King?

[Yun Yun]: I suppose I wanted to make her feel I wasn't to be trifled with, making her wary enough to choose to trade the purple spirit crystal with me. It's just that the fight later escalated beyond control.

[Huo Zhi]: Yun Yun, guess what my aunt discovered inside your Cloud Mist Sect's Gate of Life and Death?

[Yun Yun]: What!?

[Huo Zhi]: Yun Potian's remnant soul. She used a special method to converse with him inside the Gate of Life and Death. Do you want me to teach you the hand seal method?

[Yun Yun]: Please, you must teach me.

"I didn't expect such a surprise." A smile blossomed on Yun Yun's elegant and beautiful face.

If she could see Yun Potian, she could give her teacher a wake-up call.

Hall of Souls?

Get lost from my sect.

"You need someone else to teach you how to see your own ancestor's remnant soul, and yet you can actually be happy about it." Medusa crossed her arms, speaking with great disdain.

The expression on Yun Yun's face didn't change as she smiled and asked back, "That is the method of a Seven-Star Dou Sheng. If someone could see a Nine-Colored Sky Swallowing Python, what would you say?"

Medusa's expression froze, then she nodded slightly. "Then it would be fine for me to call her 'sister'."

Yun Yun: "???"
