Chapter 173: Chapter 173: The Annoying Little Goblin_1

Fan Dongqing walked up to you and stared, saying, "Have you found a way to cure my sister?"

"I’m not entirely sure, but we must take this risk! With her current condition, ordinary doctors simply can’t cure her."

"But the path to Divine Maiden Peak is so difficult to navigate, you surely can’t carry her up there on a stretcher, can you?"

You walked over to the comatose Fan Yi, your gaze resolute, and said, "No need, I’ll carry her on my back!"

It was still early, and with Fan Dongqing’s knowledge of the paths, there was no extra time to prepare. With Yin Guihua’s help, you carried Fan Yi and hit the road.

Although Fan Yi’s appearance was very similar to that of Zhao’er, her physique was noticeably different. Her body seemed lighter, and when you carried her on your back, you hardly felt her weight.

In her coma, her arms and legs were limp as if boneless. Her body pressed tightly against your back, making each step you took extraordinarily enchanting.

The mountain road was rugged, with great variations in elevation, an experience indescribable to outsiders!

After about two hours, you finally stood at the foot of Divine Maiden Peak, led by Fan Dongqing.

Divine Maiden Peak had one notable feature: from afar it looked merely like a mountain, but when you stood at its base and looked up at it, it wasn’t hard to notice that the shape of the peak was very similar to a gracefully standing woman.

Furthermore, at the foot of Divine Maiden Peak, nearby villages had built a small temple specifically for her. On certain holidays each year, villagers would come to worship, praying for family harmony and good health from the Goddess.

Suddenly, a new problem presented itself—there was no path!

Over the past years, no one had ever climbed Divine Maiden Peak. For the people living within a dozen miles, Divine Maiden Peak was a sacred mountain in their hearts. No one would ever think of disturbing the plants and animals on it, and thus no one had ever climbed it.

If it were any other time, Fan Dongqing certainly wouldn’t climb the mountain, but today was different. To save his sister, he took the lead on the steep path.

Before setting off, Fan Dongqing had prepared a thick hemp rope, about five meters long. He tied one end around his waist and led the way, letting you all rely on the rope to move forward in a straight line.

To the average person, Divine Maiden Peak was no different from any other mountain. The only thing worth mentioning was that, due to the lack of logging and hunting, one could often see small animals and towering trees on the mountain.

However, you perceived Divine Maiden Peak with a mysterious aura enveloping it. Even though the path was difficult and you were carrying Fan Yi the entire time, you still didn’t feel the slightest bit of fatigue,

"Let’s rest a bit."

At that moment, Yang Kai was panting heavily, leaning against a crooked tree.

Wei Shuxian, bent over, laughed at Yang Kai, "I told you, young man, you’re depleted of Yang energy. What do you say, do you have to admit it now?"

"Don’t you want to take a break too?" Wu Qiyi looked at you beside her, her eyes filled with concern.

You laughed and shook your head, "This amount of exercise doesn’t even count as a warm-up for me."

As for Wu Qiyi, you hadn’t expected her stamina to be so impressive. At this moment, she was as calm and composed as usual, no blush on her face, not out of breath at all, showing no sign of discomfort.

Her strength alone was already far superior to Xiao Feng and the other two.

Speaking of Xiao Feng and the others, the long mountain trek indeed had taken a toll on their vigor. So you said to Wu Qiyi, "Er Ya, I have a porcelain bottle in my embrace; could you help me get it?"

The normally composed Wu Qiyi visibly startled when she heard this; she certainly hadn’t expected you to ask her to take something from your embrace.

And you had just blurted out without much thought, just as you were about to correct yourself, Wu Qiyi had already approached you. Her complexion was slightly flushed, making her appear even more stunningly beautiful from your angle.

"It’s on the inside left of my clothes,"

you muttered, pointing to the area over your left chest.

Wu Qiyi nodded, her fingers as white as jade, and slowly slid them into your embrace.

You were wearing just two garments, an outer coat and underneath a simple T-shirt, so the moment Wu Qiyi’s hand slipped inside, your entire skin broke out into goosebumps!

Her hand was slightly cold, and as it grazed the front of your chest, your heartbeat immediately jumped to a new frequency.

Just then, Wu Qiyi lowered her head in a manner only you could see, curving her sensuous upper lip into an alluring arc, prompting you to abruptly turn your head away. Out of sight, out of mind, but your heart wouldn’t stop thumping wildly!

Damn it!

Though the action seemed to last only for a few seconds to others, to you every second felt as long as an hour.

When Wu Qiyi’s tender hand finally retrieved a porcelain bottle from your embrace, you couldn’t help thanking all the heavenly gods, while also swearing to yourself that next time you’d never let this tormenting little goblin get so close to you again!

"Distribute one pill of this medicine to each person from the bottle,"

Wu Qiyi said after giving the green Yuanqi Pills to everyone. Yang Kai didn’t think twice before he prepared to swallow one, and you shouted urgently, "Don’t eat it!"

Your shout made Yang Kai’s hand tremble, and the Yuanqi Pill dropped by his mouth, almost causing him to swallow it.

"Are you crazy, lad? Taking Dan Medicine so carelessly."

Yang Kai looked innocently and said, "Of course I dare to eat the medicine you give."

"I didn’t tell you to eat it; this Yuanqi Pill is for life-saving! When you feel tired, just smell the Yuanqi Pill next to your nose – remember, don’t be in a hurry to eat it."

"Really that amazing?"

Yang Kai expressed his disbelief. As he spoke, he took the Yuanqi Pill and sniffed it at the tip of his nose, feeling an instant sensation of clarity and refreshment flooding his nasal and oral cavities.

After taking a few more breaths of it, he suddenly seemed to come back to life, twisting his waist and bobbing his head, holding the Yuanqi Pill in his hand and saying to everyone, "Three breaths of air, two hours of swagger, mom won’t have to worry about my kidney health anymore!"

Different from others, Xi Yu carefully examined the Yuanqi Pill after receiving it, then placed it in a small compartment of her briefcase. Turning to you, she said, "Master Li, after we return, I think we could find an opportunity to collaborate."

"Sure,"

you said with a smile, nodding. You had just been worrying about where to make some money.

With the aid of the Yuanqi Pills, you all rushed straight to the mountaintop!

When you cleared away the dense foliage and saw the light again, everything in front of you astonished everyone!
