8: Chapter 8 Treasure Hunt in the CaveXiao Yi Xian’s eyes were full of fury, staring fixedly at Chen Yang as if she wanted to eat him alive; after all, she had almost fallen off the cliff to her death just moments ago.

Chen Yang looked at Xiao Yi Xian’s furious eyes, a faint smile on his lips as he said slowly, ”Xiao Yi Xian, is this how you look at your savior? You didn’t even say thank you after I saved you.”

Upon hearing Chen Yang’s words, Xiao Yi Xian was instantly incensed. If it hadn’t been for Chen Yang suddenly speaking up, how could she have almost fallen off the cliff? For this person to dare to shift the blame onto her here was simply outrageous!

”Who are you? If you hadn’t spoken just now, how could I have almost fallen? And you want me to thank you? Dream on!”

Looking at Xiao Yi Xian’s tsundere face, Chen Yang smiled and said, ”It’s so late, and seeing you sneak out, I followed you to protect you. I thought you were going to jump off the cliff, so I spoke up to stop you.”

Xiao Yi Xian raised her finger and pointed at Chen Yang, saying, ”Who wants to jump off a cliff? I am not jumping off a cliff!”

Chen Yang said with a teasing smile, ”Oh, so it’s not jumping off a cliff. Could there be treasure down the cliff?”

Hearing Chen Yang’s words, Xiao Yi Xian panicked instantly.

”That... this...”

”How would I know? Anyway, I just wanted to pick some herbs here.”

The panicked Xiao Yi Xian said quickly. After all, the mercenary in front of her had already guessed there was treasure under the cliff, and she just wanted to get rid of him quickly.

After all, the treasure below was discovered by her alone.

”Xiao Yi Xian, my name is Chen Yang. I joined the mercenary group today and I’m not a bad person. I promise you, we will split the treasure below equally; I won’t take a cent more.”

Chen Yang said quickly, moving closer to Xiao Yi Xian as he spoke.

Chen Yang raised his hand and grabbed Xiao Yi Xian’s wrist, pulling her to the edge of the cliff and pointing to a protrusion below. It was clearly a cave.

Seeing that Chen Yang had discovered the cave, Xiao Yi Xian pouted and gave up, saying.

”Fine, now that you’ve found the cave, you can kill me. The treasure below belongs to you.”

Watching Xiao Yi Xian’s cute remark, Chen Yang shook his head and said.

”Xiao Yi Xian, you discovered this cave. I will take you down, and we can explore it together. Let’s split the treasures inside 50-50, how about that!”

After listening to Chen Yang’s words, Xiao Yi Xian’s eyes lit up. She hadn’t expected that Chen Yang wouldn’t kill her and would even offer to split the treasures with her, so she immediately said.

”You are stronger, so you have the final say.”

Chen Yang smiled, opened his arms, and looked at Xiao Yi Xian, saying, ”Then hurry up and hold onto me. I’ll take you down to the cave to explore.”

Seeing this, Xiao Yi Xian blushed. She lowered her head and wrapped her arms around Chen Yang’s waist. A woman’s faint fragrance, mixed with the scent of medicinal herbs, rushed into Chen Yang’s mind.

Chen Yang didn’t waste any more time. He grabbed the rope with one hand and placed the other on Xiao Yi Xian’s soft, boneless waist. Pulling her close, he took her down towards the cave at the bottom of the cliff.

The moment he held Xiao Yi Xian tightly, Chen Yang instantly felt that softness against his chest. Although not large, there was still room for development.

Two words popped into his mind, which was the only way to praise Xiao Yi Xian’s figure.

”Soft! Slender! Fragrant!”

As a seven-star Dou Practitioner, Chen Yang held the rope with one hand and slowly descended towards the cave at the bottom of the cliff with Xiao Yi Xian.

”Careful, there’s a Magical Beast!”

Xiao Yi Xian in Chen Yang’s arms cried out. It turned out that a Tier 1 Magical Beast, a Rock Snake, was crawling over nearby, preparing to attack Chen Yang.

Seeing this, Chen Yang could only look down and say one thing to Xiao Yi Xian in his arms.

”Hold on tight.”

He then released his hand from Xiao Yi Xian’s waist. Dou Qi gathered in Chen Yang’s hand as he directly unleashed the Xuan-tier high-grade Dou Technique given to him by Cao Ying: Evil-Breaking Finger!

”Evil-Breaking Finger” is a Xuan-tier high-grade Dou Technique created specifically to counter all kinds of evil powers.

It requires condensing sharp Dou Qi on the finger, then using the finger as a medium to erupt with a piercing finger beam. When this Dou Technique is unleashed, it is fierce, sharp, full of righteous energy, like the light of dawn, capable of piercing through evil!

A golden finger beam shot out from Chen Yang’s finger, striking the Rock Snake’s vital point directly. With Chen Yang’s strength, he took care of this Tier 1 Magical Beast in one blow.

Chen Yang placed his hand back on Xiao Yi Xian’s waist and continued to descend.

It didn’t take long before they arrived at a platform.

Chen Yang clapped his hands and said, ”Let’s go, Xiao Yi Xian. Let’s go see what good treasures are inside.”

Seeing this, Xiao Yi Xian rolled her eyes at Chen Yang, then followed behind him, lighting a candle as they walked into the cave.

Upon walking in, Xiao Yi Xian saw Chen Yang blocked by a stone door, and a smile flashed across her lips.

”What’s wrong, Chen Yang? Can’t get in? This kind of door usually has a mechanism. Here, hold this. Watch me.”

Xiao Yi Xian handed the candle in her hand to Chen Yang and began to grope around the stone door. Sure enough, Xiao Yi Xian felt a place that was out of place and pressed it directly.

”Click~~”

”Not bad, Xiao Yi Xian. I didn’t expect you to know about these things.”

The stone door slowly opened, and seeing this, Chen Yang quickly complimented Xiao Yi Xian.

”Of course, I know a lot. You’d better not provoke me, or I’ll poison you to death when the time comes.”

Xiao Yi Xian raised her tsundere little head and walked into the room.

”Wow, Ice Spirit Flame Grass...”

”So many rare medicinal herbs.”

Seeing so many rare medicinal herbs, Xiao Yi Xian rushed over and began to fiddle with the flowers and plants.

Chen Yang, who had walked into the room, could only shake his head at this. He walked to the side and put all the gold coins that Xiao Yi Xian didn’t want into his storage ring.

”Xiao Yi Xian, these medicinal herbs belong to you. I’ll take these gold coins.”

He only heard a few hums from Xiao Yi Xian as she began to happily transplant the rare medicinal herbs.

Chen Yang waited quietly. But before this, he had already taken the key from the finger of the skeleton sitting on the seat. Of course, he didn’t let the map of the Purification Lotus Demon Flame go either.

As for the broken bones of the original owner, he could only say sorry.

”Come here, Xiao Yi Xian. There are three more treasure chests here. Let’s split them equally.”

Seeing that Xiao Yi Xian had finished transplanting the medicinal herbs, he called her over to the treasure chests.

Looking at Xiao Yi Xian’s expectant eyes, Chen Yang opened the first treasure chest directly. Sure enough, it was the Seven-Colored Poison Manual.

Chen Yang took the Seven-Colored Poison Manual out of the box and handed it to Xiao Yi Xian, saying, ”You are a physician; you should be interested in this poison manual. Take a look.”

Xiao Yi Xian took the Seven-Colored Poison Manual from Chen Yang’s hand and began to flip through it. As she read, Xiao Yi Xian’s face grew paler and paler. She slammed the Seven-Colored Poison Manual shut, closed her eyes, and said.

”Chen Yang, I only want this one. Everything else is yours.”

Looking at Xiao Yi Xian’s deathly pale face, he knew that she must have discovered that her constitution was the Calamity Poison Body. However, Chen Yang didn’t say anything more. He had his own plans now; he had long known the solution to the Calamity Poison Body.

Even without using the method from the original work, he had his own ways.
