41: Chapter 41: The Little Fairy Maid

Chapter 41: Maid Xiao Yi Xian

A Dou Huang expert! And a Sixth-Rank Alchemist!

Xiao Yi Xian looked at the handsome young man who was not much older than herself, her beautiful eyes swirling with disbelief. Yet, subconsciously, she suspected Gu Shengge only looked young, and his true age was probably not as simple as it appeared.

"Helping you get rid of the hidden dangers of the Calamity Poison Body and condensing a poison pill is not difficult for me, but it will take some time, because I currently only control one type of Heavenly Flame. However, given your current condition, the Calamity Poison Body is far from reaching the point of poison eruption, so there is still enough time."

Gu Shengge gazed at the surprised Xiao Yi Xian, pointing out her current situation, but Xiao Yi Xian fell silent.

There is no love without reason in this world, nor help without expectation of return. Even if the other party was helping her at the request of a maid, Xiao Yi Xian still felt it wasn't that simple.

After a long while, the gentle girl slowly spoke, "What do I need to pay?"

Hearing this, Gu Shengge did not beat around the bush and stated his purpose.

"The Calamity Poison Body is a rare special Physique. If a poison pill can be condensed, its future achievements are limitless. I want to invite you to join the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Palace. Are you willing?"

He did not force Xiao Yi Xian to marry him like he did with Ya Fei. Different women naturally required different methods.

Xiao Yi Xian wouldn't run away. For Gu Shengge, the System's rewards were the same whether he married her sooner or later, so he wasn't in a hurry.

"Nine Luminaries Heavenly Palace?" Xiao Yi Xian repeated the name, her beautiful eyes flickering with contemplation.

Although she didn't know what kind of power the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Palace was, since the other party could help her control the Calamity Poison Body and fulfill her long-cherished wish, joining their power would not be bad for her.

Xiao Yi Xian also knew that the other party valued the talent of the Calamity Poison Body. If she didn't join, and the other party used force, she would have no way to resist.

Moreover, leaning against a big tree provides good shade, and having a major power as a backer also brings many benefits.

After weighing the pros and cons, Xiao Yi Xian made her decision.

"I can join the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Palace, but I have one condition."

Gu Shengge: "Speak, as long as it's not too excessive."

"I hope the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Palace will not force me to do anything harmful to others, otherwise, I would rather die than agree."

As she spoke, Xiao Yi Xian bit her red lip lightly, a stubborn expression appearing on her pretty face. This was her only condition; she would rather be tormented to death by the Calamity Poison Body than do anything harmful to others.

Hearing this, Gu Shengge shook his head helplessly. Did he look like someone who would do such harmful things?

"The Nine Luminaries Heavenly Palace is not an Evil Path, so it naturally won't force you to do anything harmful."

"That's good." Xiao Yi Xian also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that being in the same power as Gu Shengge made her more familiar and less nervous.

"Then how should I address you?"

Seeing Xiao Yi Xian gradually relax, Gu Shengge smiled slightly, as gentle as sunlight, and softly said, "My name is Juan Shoutian. You can call me Palace Master, or continue to call me Mr. Juan."

"Palace Master?" Xiao Yi Xian immediately understood that the other party was the Palace Master of the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Palace.

However, compared to the title of Palace Master, she still preferred to call him Mr. Juan. She then stood up and bowed respectfully to Gu Shengge, showing her deference.

"Then I will trouble Mr. Juan from now on."

Gu Shengge nodded: "No need to be polite. From now on, you will follow me like Qing Lin and be my maid."

Qing Lin heard that Xiao Yi Xian also became the young master's maid, and quickly stepped forward to link arms with her, her delicate little face showing joy, and her sweet voice rang in Xiao Yi Xian's ear.

"Yay~ Qing Lin has a companion."

Xiao Yi Xian looked at the Little Beauty Snake who was intimate with her, a gentle expression appearing on her delicate and beautiful face. She reached out and patted Qing Lin's head, softly thanking her.

"Thank you, Qing Lin."

"Four months from now, an Ancient Cave Mansion will appear in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. I will take you there to participate. During this time, I will help you improve your cultivation. Qing Lin, don't be lazy. If you don't reach Dou Master within four months, I'll spank your bottom until it blooms."

Gu Shengge specifically emphasized Qing Lin. This little girl, spoiled by him, would work for three days and rest for two. It took her half a year to reach Three-Star Dou Practitioner, and that was with the supply from the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake and the Black Prison Soul Devouring Python, which showed how perfunctory and lazy her usual Cultivation was.

The Little Beauty Snake's face flushed slightly upon hearing this, feeling a bit embarrassed. She stuck out her small tongue at Gu Shengge and immediately acted spoiled towards him.

"Young Master, Qing Lin knows, and I will definitely Cultivate diligently. Please don't spank my bottom~"

"We'll see your performance." Gu Shengge rolled his eyes at this little girl. Qing Lin patted her well-developed chest, indicating that she would definitely not disappoint her young master.

Xiao Yi Xian, seeing their way of interacting, which didn't resemble a young master and maid at all, felt a ripple in her heart. It seemed that joining the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Palace was a good decision.

Xiao Yi Xian asked Gu Shengge: "Mr. Juan, do I also have to participate?"

Gu Shengge nodded. Although Xiao Yi Xian was a bit older than Xiao Yan, her strength was pitifully weak, not even a Dou Practitioner. This was likely related to her focus on medical arts and her disinterest in Cultivation.

"When the Ancient Cave Mansion appears, many experts and the younger generation from the Jia Ma Empire will come. Although your current cultivation has not reached Dou Practitioner, by relying on the Calamity Poison Body's characteristic of being able to improve cultivation by consuming poison, combined with the poison pill I refine for you, not to mention reaching Dou Master in four months, even Great Dou Master will be within reach."

Gu Shengge needed Qing Lin and Xiao Yi Xian to represent the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Palace and crush the younger generation of the Jia Ma Empire. As for him, he would naturally crush the older generation.

The struggle for the Immortal Cave would also be the time for the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Palace to emerge.

Xiao Yi Xian's delicate brows furrowed slightly, showing some resistance when she heard Gu Shengge tell her to take poison pills to improve her cultivation.

Although taking poison could quickly improve her cultivation, it would also accelerate the accumulation of toxins in her body, thereby accelerating her death. Moreover, if she couldn't control it well, and the Calamity Poison Body went out of control, it would cause another tragedy.

Gu Shengge saw Xiao Yi Xian's worries and spoke to reassure her.

"Don't worry, unless you reach Dou Zong, the toxins at the Great Dou Master level won't affect you. Moreover, with me here, even if your Calamity Poison Body goes out of control and erupts, I can suppress it."

Xiao Yi Xian hesitated for a long time, then finally nodded in agreement. After all, she was now a member of the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Palace. Although somewhat unwilling, she still had to listen to Gu Shengge.

Qing Lin Cultivates the 'Myriad Snakes Devouring Spirit Art,' the same as Yue Mei. Gu Shengge has not yet married Xiao Yi Xian, and the System has not given her a suitable betrothal gift, so he could only prepare a Cultivation Technique himself first.

Gu Shengge opened the System and spent 700,000 Origin points to purchase a Heaven Rank Intermediate Cultivation Technique from the mall, called the Nine Deaths Poison Canon.

A person who Cultivates the Nine Deaths Poison Canon, even if severely injured and on the verge of death, as long as their head is not crushed and their heart is not pierced, can recover in the shortest possible time. For every major Realm ascended, they gain one more chance, for a total of nine chances.

It also contains various poison concoctions, some of which are so potent that even Dou Zun Realm Experts would find them very troublesome, and a slight carelessness could lead to death by poison.

PS: Xiao Yi Xian will definitely be taken in, but not as directly as Medusa and Ya Fei. After all, with Xiao Yi Xian's personality, direct methods are not suitable.
