49: Chapter 49 There's an old man here, and he's really wicked!

"Th-this... is this clothing for me?"

Cherry Fall wiped her eyes, which were red from crying, and looked up at Jiang Lan with a pretty, delicate expression.

"It is for you, but you must wait until we go out to change into it. There is an Old Man here, and he is very bad! I am afraid he will peek!"

Jiang Lan finally realized what was amiss. When he and Cherry Fall arrived in this Small World, that lecherous Old Man did not appear; he must have been peeping from the shadows!

Thinking of this, Jiang Lan genuinely felt that this Old Man was not only bad but also lecherous!

"Young Lord, this Old Man has been focusing on tending to the flowers and plants in this Small World; I have not engaged in any peeping whatsoever."

An Elder with white hair and beard appeared before the two of them. It was none other than the Ten Thousand Year Tree Spirit, Old Chun.

"Oh my, Elder, why are you having a nosebleed? And it's bleeding so much! Are you alright?"

The Old Man tilted his head back, pinching his nose with his hand, but it was completely useless!

Blood kept gushing out of his mouth, mouthful after mouthful; it simply wouldn't stop!

"I wanted to... say... give... this girl... a... spirit fruit, it can... suppress her... toxicity!"

Before Old Chun could finish his sentence, he fainted on the ground, his face pale from excessive blood loss.

To be honest, seeing a beautiful woman causing a nosebleed is relatively normal, but a Bad Old Man bleeding himself dry is truly rare. At the very least, this was Jiang Lan's first time seeing it.

Firstly, Cherry Fall was simply too beautiful; her body curves were practically perfect, and with her exquisite facial features and stunning temperament, she was truly peerless.

Secondly, this Old Man was truly too lecherous. Jiang Lan sighed inwardly, wondering how such a lecherous Old Man could exist in this world!

Jiang Lan bent down, grabbed one of the Bad Old Man's feet, and threw him fiercely towards the horizon. "Boom!"

Old Chun was thrown like a dead dog into the grass at the edge of the Small World.

"Alright, now it's quiet!"

Cherry Fall was completely dumbfounded by Jiang Lan's actions.

"Young Master, do we need to save that Elder? He looks like he is very ill."

"That Bad Old Man has lived for twenty thousand years; he won't die. If he did die, that would be even better! By the way, that Old Man was stammering for a long time earlier; it seemed he said this ten thousand year spirit fruit could suppress your toxicity?"

"That Elder did seem to say that."

Before Cherry Fall could finish speaking, Jiang Lan had already bent down to pick a ten thousand year spirit fruit and held it in his palm.

"Young Master... is this... for me to eat?"

Cherry Fall lost her father at the age of three and grew up relying on her mother. She had suffered countless grievances since she was young, and one could say she lived at the very bottom of the cultivation world. She naturally felt that good things had nothing to do with her and had never imagined she would be able to eat a ten thousand year spirit fruit.

"Hmm~ Silly girl, hurry up and eat~"

Cherry Fall timidly took the ten thousand year spirit fruit, looked at it in her hand for a few moments, then placed it into her rosy, delicate mouth and began to eat.

Once the spirit fruit was swallowed, pure Immortal Qi exploded within Cherry Fall's body, and her cultivation experience soared!

In a short while, with a dull thud, "Boom!", Cherry Fall's cultivation broke through directly to the Qi Refining Eleventh Layer!

However, Cherry Fall's cultivation experience continued to surge wildly, showing no signs of stopping. With another dull thud, "Boom!", Cherry Fall broke through directly to the Qi Refining Level Twelve!

Finally, it stopped only at the Qi Refining Twelfth Layer Great Perfection!

The ten thousand year spirit fruit is truly Heaven-Defying; in just this short time, it allowed Cherry Fall to break through to the Qi Refining Twelfth Layer Great Perfection!

However, it was not over yet! After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, many black Impurities were forcefully expelled from Cherry Fall's body!

Holy crap! This ten thousand year spirit fruit actually has the effect of changing one's Physique and upgrading one's Spiritual Root! This is too Heaven-Defying!

Ding dong! [system prompt: Congratulations, the Spiritual Root of your bound character, Cherry Fall, has been upgraded to top grade mutated Fire Spiritual Root.]

Holy crap! This ten thousand year spirit fruit is too Heaven-Defying; it can actually upgrade Cherry Fall's Spiritual Root.

Jiang Lan had originally planned to find a way to upgrade Cherry Fall's Spiritual Root after leaving the Secret Realm!

'Even if your Spiritual Root is inferior, your Physique is ordinary, and your background is humble, so what? I will definitely take you to see the prosperity of this world, let you experience all the beauty of this world, and let you know that this world is worth it!'

In fact, the heavens are fair; Cherry Fall was born intelligent and quick-witted, with a superior IQ, yet she only possessed an inferior Fire Spiritual Root, came from a humble background, and suffered the hardships of the human world!

Cultivating to become an immortal is actually a process of Heaven-Defying, breaking the shackles of the heavens and changing one's fate against the heavens!

Just like how Cherry Fall changed her Spiritual Root against the heavens after consuming the ten thousand year spirit fruit!

However, the medicinal effects of the ten thousand year spirit fruit had not completely dissipated. Immediately after, Cherry Fall spat out a mouthful of black blood, and her complexion became extremely poor!

Inside Cherry Fall's Dantian, a chubby, nine-colored worm was fast asleep! That's right! This nine-colored worm was the Nine Poisons Spirit Worm!

Suddenly, dense Immortal Qi flooded into Cherry Fall's Dantian, forming an Immortal Qi cage, tightly sealing the Nine Poisons Spirit Worm inside!

The nine-colored poisonous worm twisted its chubby body, struggling frantically! However, it was completely useless!

Ding dong! [system prompt: Nine Poisons Spirit Worm suppression successful. Your bound character has 180 days of life remaining.]

This Nine Poisons Spirit Worm is truly overbearing; even the Heaven-Defying ten thousand year spirit fruit can only temporarily suppress it and cannot kill it to completely detoxify her!

After leaving the Ancient Desolate Secret Realm, Jiang Lan must find an opportunity to sneak into the Hehuan Sect and capture the Hehuan Sect Junior Elder, Snow Eagle.

First, help Cherry Fall get rid of the Nine Poisons Spirit Worm, and then skin Snow Eagle, pull out his tendons, and grind his bones to ash!

Hehuan Sect, main peak grand hall. On the holy throne sat a young girl just over eighteen years old; the girl was extremely enchanting, with a curvaceous figure.

Although her appearance looked like an eighteen-year-old girl, the aura emanating from her body was clearly that of an old monster who had lived for thousands of years.

That's right! This person was Ancestor Hehuan, Moon in the Water.

Ancestor Hehuan, Moon in the Water, had a complexion that was gloomy to the extreme at this moment, because in the Ancient Desolate Secret Realm, the life tablets of all the Hehuan Sect Disciples, except for Liu Pianpian, had all shattered without exception!

Even the life tablet of Hua Wudao had shattered!

A female Disciple was kneeling in the grand hall, trembling; it was Liu Pianpian, who had escaped from the Ancient Desolate Secret Realm.

Fortunately, she had collected two Essence Gathering Bottles in the Secret Realm, otherwise, she would have long since been refined into lamp oil by Ancestor Hehuan and turned into a sky lantern!

Suddenly! In the grand hall, standing at the end of the line of Elders, a handsome man in white in his thirties spat out a mouthful of black blood!

It actually landed right on the floor of the Old Ancestor's grand hall! This person was none other than the Hehuan Sect Junior Elder, Snow Eagle, who had poisoned Cherry Fall!

The Nine Poisons Spirit Worm inside Cherry Fall had been suppressed, and as the one who administered the poison, he was backlashed by the Dao arts and had clearly suffered a Dao injury!

Suddenly, his body shook violently, his throat felt sweet, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of black blood.

Everyone was terrified! Cold sweat "popped" out from everyone's backs! Kneeling on the ground, they all began to tremble!
