He bypassed Muli and calmly rejoined the group.
Watching Xiao Jian merge into the crowd, Muli's smile vanished, replaced by a cold glint in his eyes:
"Kid, you refuse wine, so you must drink punishment.
No matter how strong you become, that's the future. Dead men have no future!"
After resting, the group set off again. Only two minor monster attacks occurred, causing no real disturbance.
As night fell, the group finally reached the herb-gathering destination: a depressed basin filled with all kinds of medicinal herbs.
The basin was lush, filled with fragrant herbs that made anyone breathing in feel refreshed.
Xiao Jian's eyes sparkled as he looked at the herbs.
If he absorbed all of them, his cultivation could soar!
However, preparations were needed first; Muli couldn't ruin his plans for tonight.
Earlier, Xiao Jian had followed behind Xiao Yixian to scout the three Gale Wolves and the Wind Lingzhi.
Even though the group had only advanced about 500 meters carefully, it had taken some time.
But with his soul perception, Xiao Jian moved as quickly as possible.
Before Xiao Yixian even exited the forest, he had already scouted and returned behind her.
Xiao Jian had a plan for tonight: since Muli loved showing off, tonight he would let him play with the Gale Wolves!
Night fell, darkness covering the land. The campfires blazed, the crisp crackle of wood echoing through the still night.
Under the dusk's cover, Xiao Jian silently slipped from the camp, heading back along the path they came.
Though night limited vision, his soul perception easily compensated.
It wasn't yet midnight; he left early to make preparations.
He would not miss the treasures in the cave, nor the herbs guarded by the Gale Wolves.
After a while, Xiao Jian, concealing his aura, reached a tree only twenty meters from the giant Wind Lingzhi.
Flipping his palm, three paper packets appeared.
These were retrieved earlier when he had forced Xiao Yixian to hand them over from her chest.
This had left her chest a little deflated; her sorrowful eyes lingered in his mind.
These three packets were likely all her reserves.
Though it was Xiao Jian's first time using drugs this way, he instinctively applied the principles of the Qingfeng Whirlwind Fist to blow the powders toward the three Gale Wolves.
The effect was remarkable.
Wind in the mountains was normal, so the wolves didn't notice. Under Xiao Jian's careful control, they inhaled the powders entirely.
Xiao Yixian had clearly put much effort into making the powders potent.
Even the powerful Gale Wolves could not resist and soon fell, despite their alertness.
Xiao Jian waited cautiously for a moment, then moved forward, using his soul perception to watch the surroundings while digging out the Wind Lingzhi.
Next, he tied a strip of fabric from Muli's tent to a nearby tree, then swiftly vanished.
By the time Xiao Jian reached the cliff edge, Xiao Yixian had already arrived. The night wind was sharp, making her shiver as she rubbed her arms.
"Didn't get caught, right?"
Xiao Jian asked casually, ignoring her.
"No!"
Xiao Yixian did not want to respond to the poisoner, but with her life in his hands, she could only reluctantly answer.
"Good. Let's start."
Xiao Jian approached her, pretending to pull her into his arms.
"What are you doing!"
Xiao Yixian blushed furiously, annoyed that he not only hadn't offered the antidote, but also acted shamelessly as before.
"I'm not holding you. Will you go down yourself?"
Xiao Jian asked, puzzled.
"?"
Xiao Yixian opened her lips in disbelief, staring at him as if he were crazy.
"Do we really go down like this? Without ropes?"
"Using ropes would signal something abnormal. Relax, I'm a professional at this. Watch carefully and learn, obediently," Xiao Jian explained.
Ignoring her resistance, he pulled her into his arms again, the herbal fragrance clinging to him.
"Shameless," she muttered, but feeling the warmth and tight hold, she swallowed her words.
"Heh," Xiao Jian laughed lightly, then struck with a green whirlwind, knocking a lurking Rock Serpent off the cliff. He then held Xiao Yixian and jumped.
"Ah!"
Feeling sudden weightlessness, Xiao Yixian screamed in fright, wrapping her arms and legs around Xiao Jian like an octopus.
