139: Chapter 139 Little Fairy Doctor: What does "slept with" mean?
"This is Qing Lin. She is a personal maid I took in six months ago; she possesses the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils."
"This is Xiao Yi Xian, the Sword-bearing maid I took in six months ago. She possesses the Calamity Poison Body."
"This is Cai Die. She is the human form of a Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python and has deep origins with Queen Medusa. She protects my safety."
Gu Han led the three women to a nearby stone table to sit down and took out a tea set.
Qing Lin immediately stood up and took the tea set, her movements practiced and elegant as she began to brew the tea.
But whether it was her, Xiao Yi Xian, or Cai Die, none of their hearts were at peace in this moment.
In this tiny little valley, the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, the Calamity Poison Body, and a Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python actually existed simultaneously.
Never mind being rare in the Jia Ma Empire, even looking across the entire Fighting Qi Continent, this would likely be considered unbelievable.
"Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils." Cai Die observed Qing Lin's eyes and quickly looked away, speaking bluntly: "No wonder I felt those eyes were quite annoying and gave me a sense of danger. So that's why."
The Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils could easily control the vast majority of snake-type magical beasts, but those with ancient bloodlines like the Sky Swallowing Python and the Ancient Heavenly Serpent were difficult to control unless the owner's cultivation exceeded the target's, or the target was merely a soul.
Conversely, if Qing Lin's cultivation was stronger than a snake-type magical beast with an ancient bloodline, she would hold an absolute advantage.
Cai Die, being a Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python, could naturally sense the suppression from the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils.
That feeling was likely similar to an ordinary seventh-tier magical beast facing a fourth-tier Void Ancient Dragon; though stronger, its bloodline would be suppressed or even countered.
"I, I..." Qing Lin's hand trembled.
Gu Han's eyes twitched slightly as he spoke, "Cai Die means no ill will; she just speaks without thinking."
Cai Die: ?
Pfft!
Xiao Yi Xian couldn't help but chuckle.
Cai Die immediately looked at her and gave a light snort. "And you, you actually have the Calamity Poison Body."
"I'm warning you, if you ever become a threat to the Young Master, I will personally..."
"There is no need for your warnings." Xiao Yi Xian's gaze sharpened as she interrupted Cai Die. "If the day ever comes where I truly threaten the Young Master, I will find the place he hates most and end my own life."
"Hmph, you'd better mean what you say." Cai Die snorted and withdrew her gaze.
"There's no need to worry about such a day," Gu Han coughed lightly, breaking the awkward atmosphere between the two women. "I recently met a Grade 8 Alchemist. After discussing it with him, I've found several ways to perfectly control the Calamity Poison Body."
"Once you break through to the Dou Zong level, Xian'er, we will go find the necessary items."
Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian grabbed Gu Han's hand, her expression filled with excitement. "Really?"
She wasn't questioning Gu Han; she simply couldn't believe that the tragic future she feared already had a solution.
"Really." Gu Han nodded with a smile. "I can tell you about one of the more difficult methods first. It's called the Poison Pill Method. It can condense all the accumulated toxins in your body into a single poison pill. This will turn the Calamity Poison Body into a truly terrifying constitution, free from all constraints."
"Poison Pill Method, Poison Pill Method..."
Xiao Yi Xian murmured excitedly and hurriedly followed up, "How do I do it?"
"Refining a poison pill requires three things." Gu Han met Xiao Yi Xian's gaze and smiled. "First, one must have three different Heavenly Flames. Second is the Monster Core of a Seventh-Tier Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast. Third is the bodhi transformation saliva."
Xiao Yi Xian's expression froze; she felt like Gu Han was teasing her.
Of the three conditions required for the Poison Pill Method, she found every single one of them daunting.
A Seventh-Tier Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast Monster Core meant perfectly slaying a beast comparable to a Dou Zong. Even if she reached the Dou Zong level and had Cai Die's help, it would be difficult to achieve. Moreover, Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beasts were not easily found.
A natural treasure like the bodhi transformation saliva was also extremely difficult to find.
Of course, the most difficult part was the three Heavenly Flames.
Many of those Grade 7 or even Grade 8 Alchemists who were famous throughout the Fighting Qi Continent didn't even possess one Heavenly Flame. Who could gather three?
"This is the most difficult method, but I have already completed most of it." Gu Han raised his hand and summoned the Yin Yang Twin Flames. "Recently, I subdued a Heavenly Flame called the Yin Yang Twin Flames."
"Besides that, thanks to Queen Medusa, I found a Heavenly Flame called the Green Lotus Core Flame."
"I also know that the Jia Nan Academy in the Black-Corner Region has a Heavenly Flame called the Fallen Heart Flame."
"That Grade 8 Alchemist senior also possesses a Heavenly Flame."
"Furthermore, I have information regarding a Heavenly Flame called the Netherworld Poison Flame."
"That Heavenly Flame is extremely compatible with you, Xian'er. If you master it, you might be able to become the Alchemist you've always dreamed of being."
"I have another method to solve your Calamity Poison Body, which is also related to the Netherworld Poison Flame."
"Three Heavenly Flames... there really isn't any difficulty at all."
Xiao Yi Xian: !
"I also have information on the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast." As if feeling the shock wasn't enough, Gu Han continued, "Once both you and I break through to Dou Zong, we will join forces to hunt it down."
Xiao Yi Xian: !!
"I have information on the bodhi transformation saliva as well. Once we've gathered enough resources, we can simply go and trade for it."
Xiao Yi Xian: !!!
So, for even the most difficult method, Gu Han already had a way to solve it.
At this moment, Xiao Yi Xian felt a refreshing sense of relief, as if the shackles on her body had been unlocked.
Her thoughts were correct; Gu Han was the salvation of her life.
The way Xiao Yi Xian looked at Gu Han changed into one of undisguised deep affection.
Cai Die felt a surge of jealousy in her heart and said, "You certainly have good luck to have met the Young Master."
"Yes, I do have good luck." Xiao Yi Xian smiled beautifully. "I have no way to repay him in this life, so I will simply follow the Young Master forever."
"Qing Lin is the same," Qing Lin said softly, as if afraid that if she didn't voice her stance, she would be abandoned.
Cai Die puffed out her cheeks in annoyance.
Gu Han raised his hand and lightly tapped her brow, saying, "Cai Die's situation has some history with Queen Medusa."
With that, Gu Han slowly recounted Cai Die's origins.
"I see." Xiao Yi Xian sized Cai Die up, making her feel uneasy before speaking. "You were the companion snake-type magical beast of Queen Medusa. After transforming, you occupied the body Queen Medusa left behind after her evolution, and that's how you gained new life."
"On the contrary, for Queen Medusa, if the Young Master hadn't happened to have a Purple Nether Flame Snake in the middle of evolution, her fate would have been either death or being controlled by Qing Lin's Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils."
"Without the Young Master, even if you weren't refined by Queen Medusa, you would have been enslaved by her."
"Your luck is no worse than mine."
Cai Die's chest heaved. "Nonsense, of course my luck wouldn't be worse than yours."
"Indeed." Xiao Yi Xian nodded in agreement, covering her mouth as she chuckled. "Qing Lin's luck is also quite good."
"So she is the personal maid, I am the Sword-bearing maid, and you are... a guardian beast, or a pet!?"
Whoosh!
Cai Die felt her status was being challenged.
She was willing to call Gu Han "Young Master" and "Master" herself because it was playful.
But in her heart, she considered herself the mistress of the house.
"I am not a pet." Cai Die slammed the table and stood up. "I'm telling you, I've slept with the Young Master. You're far from my level."
Xiao Yi Xian: !?
Qing Lin: ββββοΌββΟβ
Gu Han: "..."
