An hour later.
Cheng Xiaofan finally emerged from the bamboo pavilion with Yu Xuanji.
Before coming out, Cheng Xiaofan had used his spiritual energy to cleanse Yu Xuanji's entire body, so that when she met his Bai Goddess, she wouldn't detect anything amiss.
He wondered if the Shennong Emperor of yesteryear, like himself, often did such things.
Nü Xi walked forward.
She playfully teased Yu Xuanji, "Sister Xuanji, look at your enraptured expression,"
"Are you feeling extremely satisfied?"
Yu Xuanji was so embarrassed by her words that she wanted to disappear.
She stamped her foot and said coquettishly, "Oh, dear,"
"Sister Nü Xi, please don't talk about me like that,"
"Why don't I let Mr. Cheng make you feel enraptured!"
Cheng Xiaofan said to Yu Xuanji, "It's getting late, we need to leave here."
"Nü Xi, I'll come and see you another day!"
Nü Xi nodded and said, "Goodbye, Mr. Cheng!"
After watching Cheng Xiaofan and Yu Xuanji leave the space, Nü Xi began to sit cross-legged on the ground, cultivating in the prehistoric Earth.
As she cultivated, the horn on her head began to glow.
Circles of light enveloped Nü Xi.
Immediately,
Her entire being began to shimmer with light,
She looked like a saintess, breathtakingly beautiful.
Half an hour later.
Suddenly!
Nü Xi opened her eyes, let out a long cry, and soared into the air.
In the air, her long hair fluttered, and her robes billowed.
With a splash!
Nü Xi suddenly flipped in mid-air and dived into the vast, churning water.
She swam underwater like a fish, agile and swift.
"Huh, there's a transit gate here?"
Nü Xi spotted a transit gate underwater.
Without thinking, she plunged into the transit gate.
Beyond the gate was an underground river.
She didn't know where the underground river led, but she shot forward like an arrow released from a bow, moving with the speed of light, like a streak of brilliance.
Emerging from the underground river, Nü Xi found herself in the sea.
With a splash, she broke the surface of the water.
She leaped again, flying into the air.
This was Nü Xi's first time in the outside world.
She hovered and fluttered in the air, twenty meters above the sea,
Excitedly surveying this brand new world.
"Everyone, look! Someone's flying in the air!"
"Goodness, am I seeing things? Can people fly in the air?"
"Ah, I see clearly, it's a beautiful woman, so stunning!"
"That woman has a horn on her head!"
"What a beautiful horn, and it's glowing golden!"
"This must be a legendary fairy!"
"I never thought legendary celestial maidens truly existed!"
Some fishermen from the East Sea spotted Nü Xi flying in the air, and they all stared, gasping and shouting loudly.
They had never dreamed that someone would be flying in the sky above the East Sea.
And moreover, it was an incredibly captivating young woman.
Besides a celestial maiden, who else could float in the air?
Many people thought their eyes were playing tricks on them.
But after rubbing their eyes a few times,
They found it was real.
Just as someone was about to take out their phone to capture the scene,
The beautiful woman in the sky suddenly dived into the seabed and vanished.
Someone finally realized and shouted, "I get it! This must be the Dragon Girl, the Dragon Girl has appeared!"
In the blink of an eye!
Nü Xi was back in the space.
Her face was pale, and she was panting.
"It seems my body is still weak!"
She murmured to herself, "I need to find a way,"
"To adapt to the outside world as quickly as possible, and just like Yu Xuanji,"
"I can also do something to help Mr. Cheng!"
...
At this moment.
Cheng Xiaofan, with Yu Xuanji,
Stood on the balcony of the bamboo pavilion,
Gazing at the mountain scenery before them.
The setting sun was like blood.
The undulating mountains, bathed in the glow of the evening clouds,
Exuded a charming radiance, dreamlike and ethereal.
"This place is simply too beautiful!"
Yu Xuanji exclaimed sincerely.
Cheng Xiaofan smiled confidently, "In the future—"
"This place will surely become even more beautiful than a fairyland!"
Yu Xuanji nodded and said, "I believe you can achieve it, Mr. Cheng!"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled, "Let's go, my Bai Goddess should be off work,"
"I'll take you to meet her."
Yu Xuanji asked, "Mr. Cheng, what identity should I use to meet your Bai Goddess?"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled slightly and said, "I'll introduce you as my friend,"
"A medicinal practitioner who is skilled at discerning the ingredients and efficacy of various medicines through her sense of smell. Your profession would be a scent pharmacist."
"As for your name, you can keep calling yourself Yu Xuanji."
"After all, people sharing names is quite common throughout history."
Yu Xuanji was pleased with this idea.
She cherished her name and didn't want to change it casually.
She also found the title of scent pharmacist very satisfactory.
Her master in the past was not only an alchemist but also a scent pharmacist.
Yu Xuanji chuckled, "Mr. Cheng, I like this title!"
Cheng Xiaofan laughed, "That's good if you like it!"
The two descended from the pavilion.
Cheng Xiaofan pushed out his motorcycle and mounted it.
He said, "You sit behind me!"
"Okay, I'll sit behind you!"
Although it was Yu Xuanji's first time encountering a motorcycle,
She was intelligent and quick-witted. With a little guidance from Cheng Xiaofan,
She very skillfully settled onto the seat.
Vroom!
Cheng Xiaofan started the motorcycle and rode out of the yard,
Speeding like the wind towards the village.
Upon reaching his home, Cheng Xiaofan found that Bai Yiling and the others had already returned.
At the same time, there was an additional person in the house, it was Lu Yinshuang, who had rushed over from C City.
"Beautiful Lu, you're here?" Cheng Xiaofan immediately called out to Lu Yinshuang.
Lu Yinshuang spotted Cheng Xiaofan and immediately smiled brightly, "Yes,"
"After receiving a call from your Bai Goddess, how could I not rush over promptly?"
Bai Yiling saw Yu Xuanji standing behind Cheng Xiaofan,
And asked with a smile, "Xiaofan, who is this beautiful lady?"
Cheng Xiaofan immediately introduced her, "Yiling, this is a friend of mine, named Yu Xuanji,"
"Known in the martial world as a scent pharmacist, skilled at identifying medicinal properties and effects,"
"Except for Western medicines, any other drug,"
"Once she smells it, she can discern its ingredients."
"I've invited her here today to assist Ms. Lu in producing our new drug!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Yiling happily grasped Yu Xuanji's hand,
And said, "Yu Xuanji, welcome to our team!"
Yu Xuanji smiled, "Bai Goddess, thank you!"
"Mr. Cheng has introduced you to me many times, and I will have to learn a lot from you in the future!"
Lu Yinshuang proactively extended her hand to Yu Xuanji, "Beautiful Yu, let's shake hands, we'll be good partners from now on!"
As Cheng Xiaofan's gaze fell upon the hand Lu Yinshuang extended, his heart trembled.
