Watching her big tail wagging happily and listening to Xuanmiao's furious rebuttal, I could tell at a glance who had suffered a loss and who had gotten the better of things.
"All right, stop acting innocent after taking advantage of things. How much of a gap do you feel remains between you and that Great Void?" I asked.
Hearing that I had fairly taken her side, Xuanmiao's expression improved considerably. She said seriously, "Master, after calculating it, there should only be a little over half left. Our original Void Thoughts were inferior to begin with."
"Mm, that's not bad either. Guanguan, what about you?" I looked at the shark girl.
That little minx was as crafty as ever. She said, "Less than half. Guanguan is simply too weak. I can't absorb as much as some Voids can. They can both make Master favor them and be so powerful themselves."
I gave a cold snort. "Do you think I'm blind? I'm warning you—behave yourself, or I'll make you take out half of your share and use it to fill in Xuanmiao's!"
"What, Master!" The shark girl hurriedly threw herself into my arms, her face full of grievance.
Beside us, Xuanmiao's face flushed and paled by turns. Naturally, she was displeased by how shameless the other party was.
"Enough. Having you absorb this Great Void isn't merely to make you stronger. You should know that I could take all the power of both Great Voids for myself. Since each of you is taking half, you should make the contribution you ought to make!" I looked at the shark girl in my arms.
The little minx's expression changed. Apparently unsure what I intended to do, she began trembling like a startled fawn.
I frowned and shoved her away. Her expression changed at once.
