Xiao Yixian's beautiful eyes widened in surprise. She quickly wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes and asked softly, "How did you get in here?"

"I ca in while you were unconscious," Lin Feng replied with a gentle smile.

Hearing this, Xiao Yixian's delicate face changed slightly. She discreetly tucked the black poison in her hand under the blanket.

A mont later, as if suddenly rembering sothing, she asked urgently, "You… you didn't touch , did you?"

Lin Feng smirked playfully. "If I really wanted to take advantage of you, I would've done it back in the Magic Beast Mountain Range. By now, you'd already be two months pregnant."

"Not that! I an… Did you co into physical contact with ?"

Her face flushed bright red, and she waved her hands in panic, speaking in a low voice.

"Haha, don't worry."

Seeing her flustered reaction, Lin Feng decided to stop teasing her.

Hearing his reassurance, Xiao Yixian let out a relieved sigh. She curled up her long, slender legs and rested her fair chin on her knees.

"I'm fine. I just made a mistake while mixing the dicine."

"You've activated the Woeful Poison Body now. You'll need to be more careful. So forces in the continent love collecting people with special constitutions like yours."

Lin Feng's words made Xiao Yixian freeze for a mont before her body suddenly tensed up. She stared at him with a pale face. "You… how do you know that?"

Lin Feng casually picked up the Rainbow Poison Book from the table and shook it. "This. And don't forget—I'm an alchemist. Naturally, I know more than the average person."

This excuse would also make his knowledge about the Woeful Poison Body seem more reasonable in the future.

Hearing his explanation, Xiao Yixian let out a sorrowful laugh, biting her lower lip tightly.

"Then… are you afraid of too?"

Lin Feng looked at the girl before him, whose self-esteem had been crushed by her own physique.

Without hesitation, he stepped forward and gently wiped away the tears on her delicate cheeks.

With a warm smile, he pulled her into his embrace, his voice soft and comforting.

"If I were afraid, I would've run away just now. Don't you already know my feelings?"

It was the first ti Xiao Yixian had ever been held by a man.

Her delicate body stiffened instantly, and she instinctively tried to struggle.

But Lin Feng only tightened his hold slightly, one hand on her slender waist and the other gently resting on her back, pulling her completely against him.

With her head buried in his chest, she could feel his warmth, along with his steady heartbeat.

A strange feeling surged in her heart, making her entire body go soft.

"You… are you really sure about this?"

After a long silence, Xiao Yixian's muffled voice ca from his embrace.

"I'm a Poison Master—a profession hated by everyone on this continent."

Lin Feng smirked.

"Heh, I don't care about that. Besides, the Woeful Poison Body isn't completely uncontrollable."

Xiao Yixian's eyes widened slightly.

After a long silence, she spoke again, her voice trembling.

"Don't lie to . The Rainbow Poison Book clearly states that the Woeful Poison Body has no cure."

Lin Feng chuckled and shook his head.

"Not necessarily. That so-called senior may have been stronger than , but their understanding of the Woeful Poison Body isn't necessarily better than mine."

Xiao Yixian's heart skipped a beat.

She almost didn't dare to believe his words, but then she rembered—Lin Feng was an alchemist!

It was entirely possible that he had read about other thods in so ancient alchemical texts!

A flicker of hope ignited in her eyes.

She suddenly lifted her head, her bright eyes locking onto Lin Feng's, and asked anxiously,

"What thods?"

Lin Feng gently patted her back to calm her down and then slowly said,

"To resolve the Woeful Poison Body, there are two solutions:

First, the Poison Pill thod.

Second, the Ghostly Poison Fla."

Upon hearing Lin Feng's words, Xiao Yixian carefully searched her mory for any ntion of the Poison Pill thod or Ghostly Poison Fla.

After a long mont, she still couldn't recall anything and asked in confusion, "Poison Pill thod and Ghostly Poison Fla? What are those?"

Lin Feng explained, "The Poison Pill thod requires three materials. First, three different Heavenly Flas. Second, the magic core of a Rank Seven Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast. Third, Bodhisattva Body Transformation Saliva. However, this thod is currently in the hands of a cunning old fox. If I get the chance, I'll find a way to steal it for you."

"As for the second thod… it's just my personal theory."

After a brief mont of contemplation, Lin Feng continued, "The essence of the Woeful Poison Body's outbreaks seems to stem from the rapid accumulation of toxins within the body. The problem is that the host's physical strength cannot keep up with the increasing concentration of poison, eventually leading to an uncontrollable outbreak."

He glanced at Xiao Yixian and said, "But… the Ghostly Poison Fla, ranked 20th among Heavenly Flas, thrives on absorbing poisons as its nourishnt. If we can harness its power to consu your excess toxins, I believe we can suppress the outbreaks of your Woeful Poison Body."

Xiao Yixian had initially been filled with hope, but her expression quickly darkened with disappointnt.

She might not have known much about Heavenly Flas or Bodhisattva Body Transformation Saliva, but she definitely knew what a Rank Seven Magic Beast was.

That was equivalent to a Dou Zong-level human expert—an existence that likely didn't even exist in the entire Jia Ma Empire.

For her, obtaining a Rank Seven Magic Core was harder than reaching the heavens.

Seeing her discouraged expression, Lin Feng stepped forward and patted her shoulder gently.

"Don't worry. I'll help you," he reassured her. "Besides, for you, as long as you have enough poison, reaching the Dou Zong realm isn't too difficult."

Xiao Yixian lowered her head, her voice laced with self-doubt.

"You're a highly respected Alchemist, while I'm destined to beco a Poison Master—a figure hated by all. Am I really worth your help?"

Lin Feng's expression turned serious. He gripped her shoulders firmly and said,

"In my eyes, it doesn't matter whether you're a Poison Master or anything else. Power itself is not a sin. The only ones who are guilty are those who use power for evil."

Xiao Yixian's heart trembled.

She slowly leaned her forehead against Lin Feng's chest.

After a long silence, a soft and fragile "Thank you" escaped her lips.

Lin Feng held her closer.

Inwardly, he felt a rare mont of gratitude for the Woeful Poison Body.

After all, if it hadn't made Xiao Yixian feel so self-conscious, he wouldn't have gotten this close to her so quickly.

Tightening his embrace around her delicate fra, he whispered,

"There's no need for thanks between us. Right now, your only priority should be improving your strength. After all, obtaining those materials won't be easy."

Ever since activating the Woeful Poison Body, Xiao Yixian's cultivation had skyrocketed at an astonishing pace.

In just two months, she had overtaken Lin Feng, who was still stuck at the peak of the Dou Zhe realm, and reached Dou Shi first!

To put things in perspective—she had only just advanced to Dou Zhe shortly before Lin Feng's battle with Mu She.

Now, barely three months later, she had already broken through Dou Zhe and entered Dou Shi!

Such a speed was unheard of, even among the Eight Ancient Clans.

Seeing Xiao Yixian's rapid advancent, Lin Feng's eyes turned red with jealousy.

Still, he wasn't without his own gains.

Because not long ago, he and Xiao Yixian had officially beco a couple.

Early in the morning, inside a secluded cave in the valley—

Under Xiao Yixian's watchful gaze, Lin Feng retrieved his cauldron and began preparing for alchemy.

He carefully took out each dicinal herb he needed from his storage ring and placed them beside him.

Closing his eyes, he ntally reviewed the recipe and fire control techniques for the pill he was about to refine.

After confirming everything, he slowly opened his eyes.

Then, channeling his Dou Qi, he skillfully infused it into the cauldron's fire chamber.

"Boom!"

A muffled explosion sounded from within the cauldron.

Imdiately, roaring flas surged up inside, flickering violently.

The once cool cave was now rapidly heating up.
