Deliberately Careless

I told you, it's not a kidney deficiency!!!!

Xiao Xiao glared at Xuanyuan Sheng, puffed up with indignation.

However, when she looked up, she didn't see any sign of Xuanyuan Sheng speaking.

Xuanyuan Sheng also felt the movement in his arms. He looked down and saw her expression, as if someone had just touched a sore spot.

[I'll arrange a good place for her later and help her solve this problem. To be so indulgent at such a young age—sigh, the state of the world is truly declining.]

Xiao Xiao stared at him blankly.

Did she just hear Xuanyuan Sheng's voice?

Her Love Mentor replied promptly.

[That's right, a girl who loves lewd thoughts—doesn't this fit your expectations even better?]

It certainly didn't expect a girl who wanted hypnosis, time-stopping, and mind-reading abilities to not desire this kind of power.

Xiao Xiao was still somewhat conflicted.

This kind of ability seemed completely different from the functions she had imagined; it didn't meet her expectations at all.

As if waiting for something, Xiao Xiao closed her eyes, but after a long while, nothing happened.

She had no choice but to open her eyes again.

Xuanyuan Sheng sighed and shook his head. "Young lady, stop staying up late reading storybooks. Take better care of your body."

Xiao Xiao looked at him with wide, pleading eyes.

[Seeing as you're so pitiful, I have no choice but to bring out the item I've been keeping at the bottom of my chest.]

Then, she saw Xuanyuan Sheng pull out a small, pitch-black pill.

"Come on, learn from me..."

Her chubby cheeks were pinched by a large hand. Before she could even say "ah," her pink lips parted.

The next moment, the black pill was quickly tossed into her mouth by Xuanyuan Sheng.

Xiao Xiao covered her mouth and looked at him with questioning eyes. "Xiao Sheng, have you tasted this medicinal pill yourself?"

Xuanyuan Sheng nodded. "I have."

"How does it taste?" She gently rolled the pill with the tip of her tongue; it had a herbal flavor, just like the pills she was familiar with.

"I removed most of the original flavors of the herbs, but I kept the full taste of a few specific ones. Only then will you know you're eating a healing pill," Xuanyuan Sheng said.

Xiao Xiao nodded, her sharp little canine teeth cutting into the pill as she mumbled, "Did you keep them on purpose?"

"I remembered to do so during the refining process."

The taste spreading in her mouth made her pretty little face scrunch up. "Was it done on purpose or by accident?"

"It was intentionally accidental."

Xuanyuan Sheng anticipated Xiao Xiao's move, using both hands to pinch her mouth and pull it into a duck-like shape.

"Don't spit it out. Don't you know that good medicine tastes bitter?"

His other fingers rested on Xiao Xiao's small head, first shaking it left and right, then pinching her chin and tilting it upward.

Only then did he release the little loli.

The released little loli found strength from somewhere, completely ignoring the empty state following their Martial Soul Fusion.

She crouched on the ground.

Ignoring her grass-stained hands, she frantically scraped at her tongue.

"Wuu... so bitter... so bitter. I've never eaten anything this bitter in my entire life."

She decided to give up her obsession with Xuanyuan Sheng's looks for... hmm... just one minute.

Xuanyuan Sheng shook his head as he watched her.

Xiao Xiao's eyes widened.

Xiao Sheng, you are truly a beast in human clothing. You removed all the sweetness and left only the bitterness.

Wait, what did she just hear?

Xiao Xiao finally remembered the voice that had appeared in her mind before Xuanyuan Sheng fed her the pill.

Her eyes darted left and right, her brain spinning rapidly.

Could it be mind-reading!!!

[It's an evaluation, girl. Don't think about such crooked paths; there are no shortcuts in love.]

[This is just a simple Evaluation System that periodically retrieves the target's opinion of you.]

The Love Mentor directly criticized the girl for her strange ideas.

So it was just an evaluation; I thought it was an evaluation.

Xiao Xiao had never been so disappointed in a person—no, a strange thing—in her life.

"Are you recovered now?"

Xuanyuan Sheng patted Xiao Xiao on the head.

Hmm, it felt quite nice.

"I..."

Xiao Xiao had just been about to say, "Brother, I fell down."

But she suddenly realized that her soul power had been fully restored, and her stamina was also brimming with vitality.

She stood there awkwardly, stunned, while screaming internally, What the hell? Who interrupted my hard-won chance to be alone with him?

Wasn't soul power supposed to require a Baby Bottle to recover quickly?

As if seeing through Xiao Xiao's confusion, Xuanyuan Sheng explained leisurely, "That is all thanks to the pill you just took. To commemorate the fact that it replaces the Baby Bottle and far exceeds its efficacy, you can call it a Milk Pill."

Could such a convenient item actually exist in this world?

Thoughts began to swirl in the mind of the violent loli regarding Xuanyuan Sheng's introduction.

Because of those Violent Gloves, she was now a one-of-a-kind genius with three martial souls.

Holding the gauntlets in her hands, the idea of punching one soul master after another in the arena grew increasingly intense.

The only problem was that using the Violent Gloves consumed too much energy; her recovery couldn't keep up with her output, which meant she was currently a one-punch wonder—she would collapse the moment she threw a single punch.

If she could have a hundred or so Milk Pills, wouldn't she have the ability to throw that second punch against any enemy she wanted to fight?

Thinking of this, Xiao Xiao let out a hearty laugh that didn't match her appearance.

With a thud, the invincible Lady Xiao Xiao collapsed.

"Don't laugh so creepily; you're giving me goosebumps." Xuanyuan Sheng couldn't help but shiver at her sound.

Xiao Xiao felt no pain at all, looking at Xuanyuan Sheng with expectant eyes: "Xiao Sheng, you'll support me, right?"

But as soon as she said it, Xiao Xiao regretted it. She had only known Xuanyuan Sheng for a few days, and they hadn't reached the level where he could casually gift her such valuable items.

What if he misunderstood?

"Your cauldron can attack, but it shouldn't be in a state that consumes a massive amount of soul power, right?"

Xuanyuan Sheng was a bit puzzled. This girl was a bit violent, but could that cauldron of hers really be used violently?

Xiao Xiao put her hands on her hips, puffed out her chest, and swayed her little head back and forth.

"I am a one-in-a-million genius, after all."

In the end, Xuanyuan Sheng did not agree to Xiao Xiao's request; instead, he pointed her toward a better path.

That was her senior, the one who knew how to refine pills.

It wasn't impossible that the senior's alchemy techniques came from a legacy found from another continent; after all, this continent was full of legacies from other places.

Every god seemed to be looking for a successor on the Douluo Continent, so what would it matter if one more came from the Dou Qi Continent?

As for refining pills for this violent little loli? That was impossible. Whether she paid for them or he gifted them, neither was a good idea.

Given that she knew his pills were bitter as hell, the fact that Xiao Xiao still wanted a hundred or so of them meant she was definitely prepared to treat those pills like candy.
