"Hey, girl, how am I bad?"
"You're slandering me!"
Lu Yunxiao grabbed Zi Yan's little hand, his face full of innocence. "The Emperor-grade Nascent Pill is sitting right here. I want it, and Uncle Zhu Kun wants it too."

He could certainly disregard Zhu Kun's thoughts and directly take the Emperor-grade Nascent Pill.
But that would inevitably leave Zhu Kun feeling unhappy.
It would affect the relationship between them.
And if there were problems in their relationship,
