The Strongest Prodigy Doctor

"Alright, I'll take herbs as a reward! Tell me where the Demon Beast is located!" Ye Tianfan nodded. After all, why not take the materials if they're offered? If the townspeople hadn't been so cautious before, Ye Tianfan would have killed the Demon Beast for free, and he wouldn't have asked for anything in return.

Of course, Ye Tianfan could still kill the Demon Beast for free now, but he wouldn't say that. If these people offered him a reward, he would accept it, and if not, he wouldn't ask for it. Because of their cautiousness, Ye Tianfan wouldn't show his most benevolent side to them.

The mayor, seeing Ye Tianfan agree, was overjoyed and immediately said to him, "Cultivator sir, the Demon Beast is in the forest to the west. There's a road in the middle—just keep walking straight. There's a cave at the end of the road, and that's where it is. The road itself was made by the Demon Beast."

"Hmm!" Ye Tianfan nodded and glanced at the sky outside. It was still early before nightfall.

"No time like the present! I'll head out now and take a look!" Ye Tianfan said and started to walk out!

The mayor, seeing Ye Tianfan set off immediately, was even more delighted but still said, "Cultivator sir, why not take a rest before leaving? Or head out tomorrow?"

"No need, I'll leave and return early. I have to head to other places tomorrow!" After Ye Tianfan finished speaking, he was outside the inn already. He summoned the Fire Lotus Sword and flew towards the west.

Watching Ye Tianfan's figure disappear, the mayor let out a deep sigh of relief. He didn't want to be insincere, but he was afraid Ye Tianfan wouldn't help deal with the Demon Beast. Having finally met a Cultivator, if this one didn't help, they'd have to wait many more years for another Cultivator to come by.

However, seeing Ye Tianfan fly, he felt reassured it would surely be fine this time!

In the blink of an eye, Ye Tianfan flew out of the town and saw the forest the mayor mentioned.

Next, Ye Tianfan saw the road the mayor had talked about.

Just as Ye Tianfan was about to fly along the road, he suddenly heard a roar from deep within the forest. Then he saw a massive Demon Beast nearly ten zhang tall soar into the sky and come flying towards him, casting a enormous shadow over a vast area of land.

"Damn!" Upon seeing this Demon Beast, Ye Tianfan immediately felt deceived. This was no ordinary or weak Demon Beast as they described. This was definitely a master among Demon Beasts!

Moreover, Ye Tianfan also noticed that the Demon Beast's body was long and slender, obviously like a snake. And this Demon Beast could fly—it had two large wings on its back. The gust from its wing flaps pressed the surrounding trees down, even snapping many of them directly.

As the Demon Beast approached rapidly, Ye Tianfan got a clear look at its snake-like appearance and immediately recognized its name. He gasped in shock.

The Giant Snake was enormous, its entire body pitch black with colorful patterns, looking quite eerie. It had two giant wings on its sides, thin yet sturdy. On its head was a golden spiral horn, with a faint purple aura emanating from the tip, clearly poisonous. The colorful patterns around its head roughly outlined a crown, and its triangular pupils did not convey animalistic savagery but rather a cunning intelligence akin to a human's.

"Unicorne Poison Snake!" Ye Tianfan's face changed drastically, exclaiming.

Additionally, as the Unicorne Poison Snake approached Ye Tianfan, a terrifying aura burst into the sky, ripping apart the lazy clouds above.

"This aura, this presence, this appearance!"

Sensing this terrifying aura, Ye Tianfan's expression suddenly turned extremely grim.

Ye Tianfan thought that if he managed to return to Huo Rong Town alive, he would have to seriously beat up the Shopkeeper; otherwise, he couldn't vent his pent-up frustration.

The Unicorne Poison Snake's power in adulthood is over the level of Baihui, and it's considered high-stage Baihui.

And this one was obviously fully grown.

As a juvenile, the Unicorne Poison Snake was like an ordinary giant python, lacking real strength—just physically stronger than a python. Its horn wasn't too useful, nor was it poisonous. Its power was at most in the third layer of Wuanxian, usually just in the first or second layer.

But once it matured, its power skyrocketed to Baihui level, and its strength would keep increasing with age until it reached old age, after which it would decline again.

Ye Tianfan now realized that before this Unicorne Poison Snake hadn't matured, since even the mayor could engage back and forth with it with some laborers. But now it's matured. Never mind the mayor coming again—Ye Tianfan himself couldn't beat it, and it could probably kill him in seconds.

As Ye Tianfan prepared to flee, the Unicorne Poison Snake suddenly flapped its wings and stopped not far away, seemingly searching for something in the forest.

"Huh?" Ye Tianfan was taken aback but quickly sighed in relief. It wasn't looking for him, after all.

After all, Ye Tianfan had just arrived here, and this Unicorne Poison Snake immediately flew up and rushed directly at him, giving him quite a fright.

Since it wasn't after him, Ye Tianfan decided not to run away.

Although he couldn't defeat the Unicorne Poison Snake, it had a major weakness: its tail tip was extremely soft. If one were fast enough, they could use any ordinary sword and stab it straight into its heart through the tail tip.

So generally, the Unicorne Poison Snake would keep the tip of its tail curled to prevent enemies from seeing it.

Without the Unicorne Poison Snake noticing, Ye Tianfan flew to a higher altitude so it wouldn't easily spot him. After all, its attention was focused below in the forest, clearly searching for something. So ascending made it harder to be noticed.

Next, Ye Tianfan pulled a small porcelain bottle from his chest, poured out two spirit power-restoring pills, and placed them in his mouth, preparing for any sudden situations. If the Unicorne Poison Snake discovered him, Ye Tianfan was ready to use the fourth style and then supplement his spirit power with the pills in his mouth!
