A familiar Green Mountain Town, a familiar Ten Thousand Medicines Pavilion.
Stepping into this small town again, recalling the scenes experienced here two and a half years ago, Chen Xiao felt as if he were in a dream.
The town was still the same, with little change. The unfamiliar but equally bold mercenaries came and went in waves.
And he, on the other hand, had already progressed from a mere Dou Zhe to a seven-star Da Dou Shi!
Such progress was inseparable from his talent.
But the gains from that stone chamber in the Magical Beast Mountain Range were equally significant.
Relying on that astonishing wealth, Chen Xiao's Amplification Pills had not stopped for the past two years, and the resources he enjoyed were no less than those of Xiao Yan, the third young master of the Xiao Family.
What was even more interesting was that by selling those temporarily useless rare medicinal herbs, Chen Xiao's wealth did not decrease but increased. In the Gold Coin Cards in his Storage Ring, there were still nearly a million gold coins available for use.
Collecting his thoughts, Chen Xiao looked towards the Ten Thousand Medicines Pavilion.
Although it was noon, there was still a long queue in the main hall, completely different from the scene two years ago.
Chen Xiao walked a little closer and saw that there was only one line, leading directly to a familiar girl in a white dress, and immediately showed an expression that said, as expected.
Entering the Ten Thousand Medicines Pavilion, Chen Xiao looked through the gap under the counter and finally no longer saw the wooden box used for stepping on.
The busy Little Fairy Doctor did not notice Chen Xiao walking in, but several doctors in the main hall, who clearly had many patients but nothing to do, saw him. However, after realizing that Chen Xiao had no intention of approaching them, they could only exchange glances and smile wryly.
In recent years, with the help of the various prescriptions Chen Xiao had given her, the Little Fairy Doctor's reputation in Green Mountain Town had become increasingly well-known.
After all, poison was also medicine, and if used well, it could also play a significant role.
Coupled with the fact that a girl's appearance changes greatly as she grows up, the Little Fairy Doctor had become increasingly pleasing to the eye and moving, which led to a surge in popularity.
Chen Xiao did not go up to disturb her, but sat on a chair to the side and waited quietly.
Having nothing to do, he took out an ancient book from his Storage Ring and read it carefully, enriching his spiritual sea of consciousness.
The environment can change a person's habits; this statement is not false at all.
In the past few years in the Xiao Family, Chen Xiao and Xun Er had influenced each other.
This made Chen Xiao like reading, and at the same time, it also gave Xun Er a slight case of obsessive-compulsive disorder...
Immersed in the ancient book, time flew by.
When Chen Xiao finished reading an ancient book, the Little Fairy Doctor finally became free, and a tired but satisfied smile appeared on her delicate face.
Chen Xiao put away the ancient book and got up to go forward.
"Huh? Are you that Chen... Chen Xiao?"
Looking at the young man walking towards her, the Little Fairy Doctor felt very familiar. She tilted her head slightly and searched her memory, and soon accurately called out Chen Xiao's name.
Seeing this, Chen Xiao was slightly surprised.
The Little Fairy Doctor was not like Xun Er; she was in the Ten Thousand Medicines Pavilion every day and came into contact with at least eighty to a hundred people.
Moreover, Chen Xiao's appearance had changed somewhat; he was taller and more handsome.
After so long, the other party could still remember him, which made it hard not to feel happy.
Little did he know, the reason the Little Fairy Doctor could do this was mainly because his image was too clean and tidy, and he was out of place with the rough mercenaries in the town, as if they were from different paintings, making it easy to leave a deep impression.
"Yes, long time no see." Chen Xiao nodded in response.
"It really has been a long time, almost three years. Are you here in Green Mountain Town for training again this time?"
The Little Fairy Doctor asked with a happy smile.
It is a joy to have friends come from afar.
Infected by her, Chen Xiao also smiled heartily, his mind extremely relaxed.
The girl in the white dress in front of him was different from everyone else he had come into contact with.
Meeting her for the first time was a pleasant surprise, and being with her for a long time still makes my heart flutter.
"This time I'm just passing by, and I specifically came to see you."
Chen Xiao shook his head slightly and told her honestly.
After speaking, he added, "The outer areas of the Magical Beast Mountain Range are no longer useful for my training, and the deep areas are too dangerous. I plan to go to the Tagor Desert."
"Tagor, huh? I heard that's the territory of the Snake-People Race, and there are quite a few poisonous insects and the like in the desert. Wait a moment, I'll get you some detoxification pills and insect repellent."
The Little Fairy Doctor suddenly understood, then greeted him and was about to go upstairs.
"I don't have any more prescriptions."
Chen Xiao made a joke.
The Little Fairy Doctor turned back and rolled her eyes at him, "No need, it's a gift for you. Those prescriptions you gave me before helped me a lot."
Listening to the crisp footsteps going upstairs, Chen Xiao took out the Seven-Colored Poison Manual from his Storage Ring. After a little thought, he put it back again.
Perhaps, giving it to her now was still too early.
If Chen Xiao had a fire attribute, with his foresight and the premonition in his mind, he was confident that he could resolve the hidden danger of the Woeful Poison Body earlier than Xiao Yan in the original trajectory.
Unfortunately, he had an ice attribute.
Given this premise, it's hard to say whether pushing her to cultivate the Woeful Poison Body prematurely would help or harm her.
Therefore, after a moment's thought, Chen Xiao decided to temporarily put the matter aside.
Footsteps sounded again, and the Little Fairy Doctor, her white dress fluttering, appeared at the top of the stairs.
"You know so many formulas, I won't bring out my usual self-defense medicines to make a fool of myself. You definitely know more than I do. I'll give you these for daily use. Although their value is limited, they are comprehensive."
Chen Xiao nodded in thanks. He had also concocted some self-defense poisons in his spare time over the past few years.
For example, a poison called Soul Falling Powder could emit an extremely irritating smell. Even if the enemy was a Da Dou Shi, they would have to seal off their sight and senses if they were hit, becoming a 'blind person,' and their combat power would instantly plummet.
Of course, this was just the description in the Seven-Colored Poison Manual. Chen Xiao hadn't had a chance to use it in practice yet, so the specific effects remained to be verified.
"This is Insect Repellent Powder. Sprinkle some around, and ordinary snakes and insects won't dare to approach. This is Detoxification Pill, as the name suggests, no need to say more. This is Sleeping Powder, which can make ordinary Magical Beasts and poisonous insects listless and drowsy. For people... the effect is even more obvious..."
Just like before, the Little Fairy Doctor explained each one and carefully labeled each medicine bottle.
Watching her handle everything in an orderly manner, a thought suddenly occurred to Chen Xiao.
If there was such a gentle and meticulous person by my side, life would probably be very comfortable, right?
With a wry smile, Chen Xiao cast aside the distracting thoughts.
"We are friends, so there's no need for thanks. I can't help you with much else, so I wish you success on this trip."
Seeing Chen Xiao about to speak, the Little Fairy Doctor anticipated him and interrupted with a gentle smile.
Chen Xiao smiled knowingly and didn't insist further.
"Then I'll take your auspicious words."
...
At the same time.
Inside the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.
A mercenary with a bandaged hand quickly ran in and found the leader Mu She and his son in the open space where the members were training.
"Leader, Young Leader, I think I saw him!"
"Hmm? Saw what? Speak clearly."
"It's that kid Tie Shan mentioned two and a half years ago, with clear eyes and handsome features, unique in Green Mountain Town. There shouldn't be any mistake!"
The reporting mercenary answered breathlessly.
Hearing this, a hint of confusion flashed in Mu She's eyes. The young leader Mu Li thought back carefully and finally remembered that there seemed to be such a matter.
Two and a half years ago, a few mercenaries from the Wolf Head Mercenary Group had malicious intentions due to greed, but ended up getting nothing and losing two lives for nothing.
Mu Li had ordered the mercenary Tie Shan, who had seen Chen Xiao, to describe his appearance in detail to the group members so that they could settle the score when they saw him again.
But so much time had passed that Mu Li himself had almost forgotten about it, yet the mercenaries in the group remembered it clearly.
"So it was that kid. It's been over two years, and he finally appeared again. But I remember he was already at least a six-star Dou Zhe back then. His strength now is probably..."
"Li'er, don't overthink it. Not seeking revenge is not the style of my Wolf Head Mercenary Group. How about this, Wang San, I'll give you ten members who are six-star or above, and you go take care of that kid! Even if his strength has improved, the possibility of him entering the Dou Shi realm is unlikely. This many people are more than enough, but to be safe, take the Mad Lion Mercenary Group's emblem with you when you act!"
Listening to the leader's words, the mercenary called Wang San looked at the bandage on his right hand and tremblingly pointed to himself with his left hand.
"Me?"
"That's right, you. With those ten, you don't need to make a move, just lead the way."
"Alright."
