Chapter 110: Fairy Doctor

Blood Lotus

Essence was an extremely rare high-grade medicinal ingredient. This kind

of medicinal ingredient usually grew together with the Yellow Lotus

Essence. Its rarity and similar appearance with the Yellow Lotus Essence

made it difficult for someone who was unfamiliar with them to

differentiate between the two. Had Yao Lao not exclaimed when Xiao Yan

first saw this item, a novice like him would never have been able to

discover that this ordinary looking thing was actually a rare medicinal

ingredient that he had been searching for.

Blood Lotus Essence was

also one of the key ingredients in making a ‘Blood Lotus Essence Pill’.

When speaking of the ‘Blood Lotus Essence Pill’, it was also necessary

to bring up the strange Qi Technique ‘Flame Mantra’ that Xiao Yan was

practicing.

It should be known that the evolution of ‘Flame

Mantra’ requires the consumption of a Heavenly Flame. Swallowing the

Heavenly Flame, however, was not something safe. The Heavenly Flame was

extremely violent and it also possessed terrifying destructive

properties. Even the special metals that were renowned for its hardness,

would be unable to withstand being barbequed to the high temperature of

the Heavenly Flame, much less a person’s body.

Thus, in order to

successfully consume the Heavenly Flame into the body, refine, then

absorb it, some extremely cumbersome things must be prepared.

This ‘Blood Lotus Essence Pill’ was the most important one amongst them.

After

consuming the ‘Blood Lotus Essence Pill’, a strange bloody layer will

be formed on the surface of a person. This bloody layer can withstand

being exposed to extreme heat. Only with its help could one get close to

the Heavenly Flame and search for a chance to undertake the next step.

Xiao

Yan had tried looking for necessary items that Yao Lao had told him of

within Wu Tan City but it was to no avail. He did not expect that not

long after reaching a new place, he would luckily find this rare Blood

Lotus Essence.

Xiao Yan great mental strength allowed him to

completely hide the extreme happiness in his heart and under the

impatient eyes of the shop assistant, he randomly played with the Blood

Lotus Essence in front of him. After being silent for awhile, he

smilingly asked, “Are there any more Yellow Lotus Essence in this stop. I

would like to buy in bulk.”

Hearing this, the shop assistant was

slightly stunned. He suspiciously swept his eyes across Xiao Yan.

Although the Yellow Lotus Essence was only priced at only a hundred gold

a piece, if it was bought in bulk, it would still require quite a hefty

price.

After his suspicious gaze was shifted to the Space Ring on

Xiao Yan finger, the misgivings on the shop assistant’s face quickly

disappeared and was replaced with a flattering smile, “Mister, please

wait for a moment. I will immediately go and get them.”

Xiao Yan

nodded with a smile. He did not continue to focus his attention on the

rare Blood Lotus Essence in his hand, Instead, he searched the

countertop for other things, acting as though nothing had happened.

Not

long after the shop assistant left, he hurriedly returned and placed

the small wooden box he was carrying on the countertop. He smile and

said, “Mister, there are fifty three Yellow Lotus Essences here. Are you

planning to buy all of them?”

Xiao Yan smiled but did not answer.

His gaze swept across the Yellow Lotus Essence in the wooden box. A

moment later, disappointment flashed across his eyes; he did not find a

second Blood Lotus Essence amongst the Yellow Lotus Essence.

Xiao

Yan let out a disappointed sigh from his heart but maintained a smiling

face. From within the box, he randomly chose over twenty pieces before

placing the Blood Lotus Essence among them. Facing the shop assistant he

said, “Help me pack this and calculate.”

“Mister, the bill

amounts to two thousand four hundred gold coins.” The shop assistant

announced the price after counting the number of Yellow Lotus Essence

with his sweeping gaze.

Xiao Yan nodded his head slightly and

lifted his finger. He handed the pale green card containing five

thousand goin coins that had appeared in his hand to the shop assistant

before hurriedly storing the bunch of Yellow Lotus Essence into his

storage ring. Instantly, he felt a great relief.

After a brief

silence, Xiao Yan suddenly faced the shop assistant who was swiping the

card and asked, “Are the Yellow Lotus Essences here from the Mystical

Beast Mountain Range?”

“Hum. The Mystical Beast Mountain Range is

full of medicinal herbs. Our ‘Thousand Medicine House’ has our own team

to gather medicinal herbs. But each time we enter the Mystical Beast

Mountain Range, we have to spend large amounts of money to hire

mercenaries as guards.” The shop assistant, having completed a

transaction, happily answered as he returned the card to Xiao Yan.

Xiao

Yan kept his things and nodded slightly. He was preparing to leave when

he noticed that there was a sudden commotion at the entrance of the

medicinal shop.

“Wow, it actually is the Fairy Doctor!”

“How beautiful, tsk tsk, what a narrow waist…”

“Idiot,

do you wish to die? More than half of the mercenaries in Qingshan Town

have been saved by the Fairy Doctor. If someone heard you, you may well

lose your tongue.”

Two men standing a short distance from Xiao Yan

were conversing. When one of them uttered some dirty words, his

companion quickly stopped him with a quiet lecture.

“I was just

speaking trash...haha, haha.” Feeling the unfriendly gaze from those

around him, that man slightly paled and with an embarrassed face,

hurriedly escaped from the medicinal shop with his friend.

“That

Fairy Doctor... Does she have such a great reputation here?” Xiao Yan

was somewhat surprised by the exchange of the two men and the reaction

of the mercenaries. Standing at a distance, he tilted his head and

barely caught a glimpse of female figure in a white dress through the

gaps in the crowd.

Following the dispersal of the crowd, Xiao Yan

finally managed to clearly see the face of the lady whom the crowd had

clustered around.

The lady was wearing a pale white dress. She was

not extremely beautiful but could be called an uncommon beauty. Her

lightly smiling face emitted a fresh aura that was unique and greatly

increased her charm.

Xiao Yan’s gaze swept across the lady’s body

before finally landing on a narrow waist that was bound by a green belt.

Seeing the narrow waist that could not fill a hug, amazement flashed

across his eyes.

Amongst the ladies Xiao Yan had come to know, Xun

Er was the most enchanting with her beauty and mystery that one could

not find fault with. Ya Fei was a stunning, enchanting temptress and

Xiao Yu had her long sexy legs which Xiao Yan’s eyes could not help but

stare at each time he saw them. The woman in white that was in front of

him, on the other hand, was the one with the narrowest and most delicate

waist.

Xiao Yan smacked his lips, feeling amazed. Beside him, the

shop assistant laughed in a low voice, “The Fairy Doctor is a physician

that was specially hired by our ‘Thousand Medicine House’. There are

many people all over Qingshan Town who like her. If the Fairy Doctor

accompanied us when we go to the Mystical Beast Mountain Range to gather

medicinal herbs, the mercenaries would all lower their wages to the

minimum and at times, even fight amongst themselves for the available

positions.”

“A physician?” Hearing this, Xiao Yan was momentarily stunned and immediately asked, “Isn’t she an alchemist?”

A

physician could be considered as a kind of alchemist but they are much

inferior when compared to the latter. After all, they cannot really

refine any medicine. All they can do is to use a normal fire to mix the

various medicinal ingredients together and achieve a healing effect. If

compared with the medicine refined by an alchemist, such medicine is of a

much lower grade. Thus all physicians desire to become an alchemist,

but many fail to do so even after spending their entire life trying. The

main problem lies both with their elemental affinity and the lack of

guidance.

After seeing the extent to which she was welcomed and

the healing medicine on the countertop, Xiao Yan had initially thought

she was an alchemist.

“If it was so easy to become an alchemist,

the occupation would not have been so rare and precious.” The shop

assistant said helplessly.

Xiao Yan shrugged his shoulders, too

lazy to continue his enquiry. He stared at the lady in the white dress

who had sat down in her seat and attended to her injured patients. He

touched his chin and admitted to himself that the kind smile the Fairy

Doctor displayed when she was treating the wounded was extremely

touching. No wonder these usually fierce mercenaries acted like docile

little sheep in front of her.

After standing at the same spot and

taking another look at the beautiful picture-like scene before him, Xiao

Yan walked out of this ‘Thousand Medicine House’. He walked on the

street for a while before glancing at the darkening sky and randomly

found an inn at the end of the street. He rented a room and went. In the

room, he slightly curled his legs and let out a heavy breath. Tightly

grabbing the hilt of the heavy sword on his back with his palms, he

lifted it off his back with a low groan and carefully leaned it against

the side of the bed.

Although Yao Lao had said that Xiao Yan

cannot remove the heavy sword even when he was sleeping, the current

Xiao Yan simply did not have the ability to do so. Hence, Yao Lao had

allowed him to temporarily remove it while he was sleeping.

Immediately

after the strange heavy sword left his body, Xiao Yan could feel that

the Dou Qi in his body, like a river of water, swiftly and violently

flow within his body.

Xiao Yan slowly let out a breath. All the

pores on his body had suddenly opened up. The comfortable feeling caused

Xiao Yan to joyfully let out a cry. This feeling of suddenly becoming

strong was simply too satisfying.

Twisting his sore shoulders,

Xiao Yan removed the huge bunch of Yellow Lotus Essence that he had just

bought. From within, he picked out the Blood Lotus Essence and

carefully placed it into a white jade box that he had retrieved from the

storage ring. As for the remaining low-grade Yellow Lotus Essence, Xiao

Yan simply dumped them at random into the storage ring.

“Phew…

now that the Blood Lotus Essence is finally in my hand, all that I’m

missing is the Ice Fire Spirit grass and a fourth rank Ice Attribute

Monster Core before I can refine the ‘Blood Lotus Pill’.” Patting the

jade box in his hand, Xiao Yan wiped his mouth and sighed, “It looks

like I will be busy in the future. Just finding the medicinal

ingredients for the ‘Blood Lotus Pill’ has already given me such a big

headache. Alas… successfully consuming the ‘Heavenly Flame’ will not be

an easy task.”

Xiao Yan sighed and shook his head. His sore body finally lay on the bed and he was overcome by his sleepiness...
