Chapter 21: Finger Color Change

  Xie Ao Yu looked at Zi Yan with anticipation, this kind of top-notch master's duel was extremely attractive to him, and he even felt a little regretful for not being able to watch.

  A contest between masters can often bring inspiration.

  "Another draw."

  "What again?" Xie Ao Yu caught the subtlety in her words, apparently Zi Yan and You Lan Ru's great war was not as simple as one or two times.

  "I have fought her thirteen times, each time ending in a draw, never determining a winner. We've also formed an unspoken understanding, meeting once a year for a duel." Ziyan snapped her fingers, and the charming shadow flames grew stronger.

  Thirteen times, meaning thirteen years.

  Xie Ao Yu clicked his tongue, "I think Ziyuan sister's personality doesn't seem to like competing and winning, in my opinion, it should be because of Youlan Ruo's personality that led to the duel."

  Otherwise, I also had the same idea as her at first, but accidentally obtained the charming spirit fire, and then became interested in alchemy, so I put my mind on alchemy. Ziyan smiled and replied, "Since then, I thought that I would no longer have any intersection with Youlanruo, but unexpectedly this woman has a slightly eccentric temperament. The things she recognizes, if you want to let her change, it's extremely difficult. In her opinion, if she doesn't defeat me, even if she becomes the number one master under the starry sky, it won't mean anything."

  Hearing this made Xie Ao Yu a bit frantic.

  At the same time, I also understand why You Lanruo can achieve such achievements. It's obvious that she has an extreme obsession with martial arts, which is what we call a "martial maniac".

  Against Wu Zetian's tyranny.

  It's precisely this kind of person, once they set their mind on something, they won't give up until the end. Looking at Ziyan's situation is just like that. What makes Xie Ao Yu very unhappy is that if Youlan wants to kill him, then wanting her to change this idea seems quite unrealistic.

  He suspected that if it weren't for the ice dance, You Lan might have killed him with her own hands.

  Ice Dance?

  Xie Ao Yu suddenly shook and thought of an important question. Before that, Bing Wu had told You Lan Ruo about his existence and the reason for his physique.

  At that time, You Lan Ruo had no intention of taking action against him.

  Is it because I saw him and then had the intention to kill?

  It sounds unbelievable, but the fact is that whether it was Bingwu telling Youlanruo or Xieqian asking someone to find Youlanruo for help earlier, it shows that Youlanruo knew him very early on, but never had any intention of taking action. Moreover, in this year and more, he didn't see Bingwu much, if he didn't want Bingwu to see it, he could have killed himself with his own hands, there was no need to use the method of placing three-tailed scorpion dragon beasts in the place where Yihu was located.

  This further proves that You Lan had the intention to kill him after seeing him.

  It was just that they were about to leave, so there was no time, or perhaps it was because of the ice dance, that they would have the idea of using the Three-Tailed Beast to kill him.

  Xie Ao Yu felt a chill run down his spine.

  When he met You Lanruo, he couldn't see anything special about her, and that ethereal elegance was even more memorable.

  But who would have thought that at that moment, she secretly plotted against him.

  Xie Ao Yu thought back to when he was talking to Bing Wu, and didn't pay much attention to You Lan Ruo. Although they didn't talk for long, with You Lan Ruo's nearly terrifying strength, it would have been completely possible for her to rush to Xiao Lang Mountain and set up a way to kill him, because she had the King-level demonic pet Feng Huo Liu Xing Qi Cai Die.

  This Wind Fire Flowing Star Seven-Colored Butterfly not only reached the highest level of Tian Wang, but more importantly... is a wind system.

  Wind means speed.

  But why did he want to take his own life?

  Xie Ao Yu had an urge to curse, but his intuition told him that with You Lan Ruo's high and mighty identity, which almost looked down on the vast earth, she would never shoot without a target.

  There must be some reason for it.

  And for this reason, she gave up her identity and the master-disciple relationship with Bingwu. As for what could have triggered Youlanruo's killing intent, Xie Aoyu couldn't think of anything.

  He carefully recalled the process of meeting with You Lanruo.

  Little by little, carefully recalling.

  "What's wrong with you?" Ziyan stretched out her hand and poked Xie AoYu's forehead.

  "Hmm, nothing, I just feel a little envious." Xie Ao Yu said.

  Ziyan smiled and said: "Do you envy Youlan?"

  He nodded and said, "Yes, she seems to have had a King-level Wind Fire Flowing Star Seven-Colored Butterfly as her magical pet since birth. At that time, she could roam the continent freely and fearlessly. If I also had a King-level magical pet, it would be great."

  He spoke as he didn't see that little white one.

  Only Xiao Bai heard Feng Huo Liu Xing Qi Cai Die, revealing a disdainful expression, but it disappeared extremely quickly, and no one noticed.

  "That's because of her identity, a Tianwang-class demon beast. Not only is its combat power astonishing, but what's even more terrifying is that they have extremely high intelligence. If it weren't for Youlan being so stubborn and insisting on using the Fenghuo Liuxing Qica butterfly against me, I probably wouldn't even have had the qualifications to fight her." Ziyan said.

  "What is her status?" Xie Ao Yu also felt that only extremely high status would have the possibility of obtaining a Heavenly King-level magical beast as a companion when their strength was not high.

  He didn't believe in that so-called chivalry, thinking you're a hero, thinking your future is this and that, top-level demonic beasts would willingly acknowledge their master, unless the top-level demonic beast had an extremely special reason.

  Ziyan smiled and said: "Her identity is terrifying, it's better if you don't know, otherwise, it will bring the extinction of the Xie family."

  But I am destined to have a feud with Youlanruo.

  Xie Ao Yu let out a quiet sigh. If what Zi Yan said was true, then why would someone of You Lan Ruo's status treat him this way? He couldn't understand it at all.

  "You've inquired about Yurou Lan with such detail, don't you have some ulterior motive?" Ziyan said with a smile.

  "How could it be? I really have intentions for Ziyan sister." Xie Ao Yu said with a deliberate, ambiguous tone.

  Her beautiful eyes blinked, like a flash of lightning, "Is it?"

  A surge of evil fire immediately rose from Xie Ao Yu's body, he quickly turned his head to look elsewhere, lest he lose face because of this, that would be embarrassing.

  "Hmm..." His actions brought a charming smile from Ziyan.

  Xie Ao Yu hastily said: "I just want to climb up the high branch of ice dance, then I'm also lucky, right? Hehe, will I be considered a little white face relying on skirt ties?"

  "Don't change the subject, I still understand your character very well." Ziyan smiled and said, "By the way, according to Medicine God's instructions, in the initial stage of cultivation, with my judgment, you only need seven more times, and your fingers will turn pale gold. After passing this initial stage of cultivation, next is the biggest hurdle, which is rare flowers and strange grasses. I know the situation of the Xie family, so I decided to go to the Hengduan Mountains myself to pick some."

  "Ziyan sister, how should I thank you?" Xie Ao Yu thought to himself.

  The mountain range is a treacherous place, and the level of rare flowers and herbs he needs is extremely high, often found deep within the mountain range, making it even more perilous.

  Take a look at Ziyan, and think about Youlanru again.

  At the same time, a stunning beauty and also a wonder woman of the mainland, how can there be such a big difference?

  "Ah!"

  A cry of surprise once again interrupted Xie Ao Yu's contemplation.

  He hastily lowered his head and saw that the tip of his left little finger was gradually emitting a faint golden glow.

  It's extremely weak, if you don't look carefully, you really can't see it.

  Xie Ao Yu's heart started beating faster with a "boom boom" sound, victory was within reach, but he became a bit worried and looked on nervously.

  Zi Yan is no exception either.

  She slowly moved the Shadow Flame from her little finger to the tip, and as it moved, the pale gold color also spread.

  Xie Ao Yu's little pinky finally turned pale golden in color.

  Because it's yellow skin and has just changed color, so it's not very obvious. If you don't look carefully, you can't see it at all.

  "Inconceivable! Your cultivation speed is actually faster than I imagined, almost a month's worth of time." Zi Yan said with some surprise.

  "Ziyan sister, did you succeed?" Xie Ao Yu exclaimed in surprise.

  Ziyan smiled and nodded, then handed a small bottle to Xie AoYu.

  "What is this?" Xie Ao Yu asked.

  "Color-changing powder." Zi Yan said, "Your Medicine God Finger has just begun to take shape, and the color will gradually deepen later on. If those who know of the existence of the Medicine God Finger were to see it, they would definitely make a move against you."

  The cultivation of the Medicine God Finger requires a large quantity of rare and exotic herbs, with most being top-grade in order to have any hope of success. If others were to see the Medicine God Finger, even if it was clearly visible, they would not believe it.

  Xie Ao Yu only then knew that cultivating the Medicine God's Finger also had its dangers.

  This danger is external.

  "Alright, next, your Medicine God Finger will need those extremely potent Heaven and Earth Spiritual Liquids to enhance its power. I should also fulfill my promise now. Tomorrow, I'll set out to the Transverse Mountain Range to search for the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Liquids." Ziyan took out a bottle filled with medicinal pellets, "These medicinal pellets can guarantee that your father's internal energy won't disperse within a year."

  Xie Ao Yu took it over and thanked her sincerely: "Thank you, Zi Yan sister."

  Ziyan smiled slightly, "I should pack up now, you can go back too."

  Walking out of Ziyan's residence, Xie Ao Yu looked up at the azure sky and muttered to himself: "It's time to take action!"
