Due to the depletion of the Dou Di Bloodline, the Xiao Family's talent ceiling was actually very limited.
Unless someone could become a Dou Di and reactivate the Dou Di Bloodline within them, only then could their cultivation soar.
Therefore, Xiao Li using various elixirs to elevate the Xiao Family members to a higher overall level was already the maximum he could achieve.
He couldn't raise them any higher.
Among the entire Xiao Family, only Xiao Yu and Xiao Mei were individuals whose cultivation Xiao Li could still help improve—through the Dragon Phoenix Art.
After giving birth, Xiao Li gave them the highest-grade recovery elixirs, and coupled with cultivators' physical fitness being inherently stronger than ordinary people.
Thus, in just three days, their bodies had fully recovered.
Therefore, in the following days, Xiao Li also worked very hard, going back and forth between Xiao Yu and Xiao Mei's rooms every day, diligently toiling.
Their cultivation also rose almost synchronously, at a very fast pace.
In just a few days, they both broke through to the peak of Battle King!
This was the effect of the Dragon Phoenix Art.
The greater the difference in strength between the two parties, the greater the benefit received by the one with lower cultivation.
Xiao Li was already a One-Star Dou Zong, while Xiao Mei and Xiao Yu were originally Battle Masters.
So, he effortlessly helped them break through to the peak of Battle King.
Then, Xiao Li gave each of them a Battle King Pill, allowing them to successfully advance to One-Star Dou Huang.
Immediately after, he gave each of them a Dou Huang Pill, raising them directly to Three-Star Dou Huang!
The speed of their breakthroughs made both women feel as if it were an incredible dream.
Although they had experienced the miraculous effects of Xiao Li's Dragon Phoenix Art long ago.
They were already shocked back then.
As a result, the effect of the Dragon Phoenix Art this time was even more heaven-defying, making them feel as if it were an unreal dream.
Dou Huang!
In the entire Jia Ma Empire, they were absolute powerhouses!
Xiao Mei and Xiao Yu could be considered two of the youngest Dou Huangs in the history of the Jia Ma Empire.
With this, Xiao Li felt relieved leaving them in the Xiao Family.
"Brother Xiao Li, you just returned, are you leaving again so soon?"
In the courtyard, Xiao Mei looked at him with reluctance.
After finally enjoying a period of happiness, they were to be separated again; she couldn't bear it.
Xiao Yu, however, was more sensible and comforted her: "Silly girl, a man's ambition is everywhere. Our Wutan City is too small, it's not good for Xiao Li to stay here forever."
Both Xiao Mei's delicate reluctance and Xiao Yu's intelligent understanding made him feel very unwilling to part.
"Don't worry, it's not like I won't come back. You two take good care of Shu Yue and Qing Yang at home. I'll come back when I have time," Xiao Li comforted.
He also couldn't bear to leave.
But there were some things he had to do.
After bidding farewell to Xiao Zhan and the others, Xiao Li embarked on his journey again, taking Green Scale with him.
His ultimate destination was the Black-Corner Region, but before going there, he had one more place to visit—Qingshan Town... Qingshan Town.
A small town near the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
Three mercenary groups once existed here, dividing the territory of Qingshan Town.
But with the defeat of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, the situation in Qingshan Town changed a lot.
Among them, the Little Fairy Doctor, who was once hunted by the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, had now clearly become the strongest person in Qingshan Town.
She had transformed from a girl who earned respect solely through her medical skills and kind heart into a woman with equally superb medical skills and strength.
The people of Qingshan Town also respected her—both because of her medical skills and her strength.
If anyone dared to cause trouble with the Little Fairy Doctor, besides knowing a bit of medical skill, she also knew a bit of martial arts.
Therefore, the Little Fairy Doctor's popularity in Qingshan Town was also growing.
Her demeanor also became increasingly ethereal and beautiful. Dressed in white, she was like a celestial fairy, captivating anyone who laid eyes on her.
"Alright, today's consultation time is over. If anyone still has questions, please come back tomorrow," the Little Fairy Doctor said with a sweet smile.
Those who hadn't gotten their turn also looked regretful, but still left obediently.
The Little Fairy Doctor said she wouldn't see anyone, and no one dared to say another word.
Afterward, she returned to a medicinal herb shop called 'Medical Fairy House'—this was a medicinal herb shop opened by the Little Fairy Doctor herself.
She no longer needed to stay at Ten Thousand Medicine House; opening her own shop was better than working for others.
At the very least, she could do as she pleased, doing whatever she wanted.
Dusk fell.
The Little Fairy Doctor returned to the shop to organize the medicinal herbs that had just been delivered today, when she heard the sound of a door opening behind her,
"I'm sorry, we're already closed. We're not doing business today," she said without turning her head.
"I'm not here to buy anything."
A warm male voice came, and just that short sentence made the Little Fairy Doctor freeze.
The scale in her hand fell to the ground with a 'clatter,' scattering medicinal herbs everywhere.
She quickly turned her head and saw a familiar face.
"Xiao... Li?"
The Little Fairy Doctor stared blankly at the man she had longed for day and night, her eyes trembling slightly, filled with disbelief.
She had thought of this man, who had entered her life and left an indelible mark, countless times in the deep of night.
She had also fantasized about how exciting and moving the day of their reunion would be.
Yet, she never expected that on a quiet evening, when she was completely unprepared, Xiao Li would return just like that.
"Xian'er, I'm back." Looking at the girl in front of him, Xiao Li revealed a warm, sun-like smile.
At that, the Little Fairy Doctor could no longer hold back and quickly ran up, throwing herself into Xiao Li's arms.
Her arms tightly embraced Xiao Li, fearing this was just her illusion.
When they first parted, the Little Fairy Doctor thought she could endure the pain of yearning.
But later, she realized she was wrong.
"Xiao Li, I miss you so much..."
The girl whispered, her voice tinged with a slight sob.
"I miss you too."
Xiao Li held the soft, delicate body of the girl in his arms, gently patting her back to comfort her.
Without too many words, just holding each other tightly like this could convey the longing in their hearts.
After a while, the Little Fairy Doctor finally calmed down, emerging from Xiao Li's embrace, her small face flushed.
"Why did you suddenly come?"
"I've finished my business in the Imperial Capital, so I came to see you."
"It's been a while, my Xian'er has become even more beautiful."
At this moment, the Little Fairy Doctor's temperament had become even more ethereal and elegant, and her appearance had also become much more beautiful, making even Xiao Li feel deeply moved.
"Who's your Xian'er? Don't talk nonsense..." The Little Fairy Doctor said shyly, lightly chiding him.
Then, she noticed Green Scale outside the door,
"She is?"
"Her name is Green Scale, she's my maidservant. She's with me now, which can also be considered a form of training," Xiao Li explained.
Green Scale's talent at her age was already quite good, but she lacked practical combat training. Xiao Li keeping her by his side was also a form of tempering for her.
"I see." The Little Fairy Doctor nodded...
