All the pain and despair I have endured over the years seems to have found an outlet at this moment.
Ma Xiaotao could no longer maintain her composure. In excitement, she stepped forward again and pressed her hands violently on Yin Chen's shoulders.
"I need your help."
Her voice trembled slightly with excitement, and her beautiful phoenix eyes were full of pleading and expectation at this moment.
"Don't worry, I will definitely pay you a reward that satisfies you."
The force coming from his shoulders was very strong, and those soft palms were like iron pliers at this moment.
Yin Chen was slightly shaken by her pressure, and his body involuntarily leaned back against the tree trunk behind him.
A strong women's body fragrance with a hint of jasmine, mixed with the unique burning breath of Phoenix Flame, hits your face.
His eyes inevitably met the majestic "murder weapon" that was so close at hand.
Even with his temperament in two lifetimes, he couldn't help but feel his mouth dry for a while.
He calmly tilted his head back strategically, pulled away a little, and spoke calmly, as if he was unmoved by the beautiful scenery in front of him.
"Is it to suppress the Evil Fire in your body?"
His tone was very calm.
"I heard senior Sanshi accidentally mention it before, regarding sister Xiaotao, your Martial Soul flaw."
Ma Xiaotao was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that Yin Chen could even guess the reason.
"That's right, it's Evil Fire."
She couldn't care less about being shy and said eagerly.
"My Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul will become more and more difficult to control as Soul Power improves. I have not dared to practice with all my strength for a long time... for a long time. If this continues, sooner or later I will be backlashed by Evil Fire and completely reduced to Evil Soul Master."
At the end of her speech, there was a hint of fear and trembling in her voice.
"So, I need your Ultimate Ice. Only your Ultimate Ice can suppress the Evil Fire in my body."
"I understand."
Yin Chen nodded to express understanding.
"As long as you agree, every once in a while, use your Ultimate Ice to help me suppress Evil Fire..."
Ma Xiaotao was overjoyed when she saw that Yin Chen did not refuse. She couldn't wait to take out the warm white jade box from her Storage Soul Tool.
"... Then it's yours."
She thrust the jade box into Yin Chen's hand and looked at him expectantly.
The jade box was cold to the touch, but Ma Xiaotao's body temperature still remained on it.
Yin Chen glanced down.
"It's actually Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber, Xiaotao, are you so generous?"
He weighed the jade box in his hand and felt quite emotional in his heart.
'Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber, this is indeed good stuff.'
Before he came, he really didn't think that Ma Xiaotao would give any decent reward.
In his original plan, no matter what Ma Xiaotao took out, or even nothing, he would agree to help.
The reason is simple.
First, his future goal is to become the actual controller of the Shrek Academy and take the position of Sea God Pavilion Master.
As for Ma Xiaotao, as the direct disciple of Yan Shaozhe, Shrek is a direct descendant of Zheng Miaohong, and the future Sea God Pavilion Elder is definitely someone worth wooing.
Let her owe a favor now, and the weight of this favor will be enough to exchange for huge rewards in the future.
Secondly, suppressing Evil Fire is almost a piece of cake for him.
Ultimate Ice of Ice Empress has natural and absolute restraint towards Evil Fire Phoenix.
At most, he can solve Ma Xiaotao's big trouble by paying some Soul Power.
This is a completely useless transaction.
But he never expected that Yan Shaozhe and Ma Xiaotao would be so generous. As soon as he made a move, it was Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber.
He knows the value of this thing better than anyone else.
You know, even if Star Luo Imperial Family values him extremely, he has never given him Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber.
Most of them are century-old, and there are only a handful of millennium-level ones.
In his knowledge, there is only one person who has enjoyed Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber - Xia Die.
But what is the identity of Xia Die?
Holy Spirit Cult's Death Saintess's status is comparable to that of an imperial princess, or even more so.
It's natural for her to enjoy this kind of resource.
But now, Yan Shaozhe has provided such strategic resources just for a request.
All we can say is that Shrek Academy's background is indeed unfathomable.
"How is it? Are you satisfied with this reward?"
Ma Xiaotao asked nervously when Yin Chen Jiujiu was silent.
"Very satisfied."
Yin Chen recovered his thoughts, raised his head and smiled at her.
"It's just suppressing Evil Fire. Sister Xiaotao is so kind. I feel a little unworthy of such an expensive gift."
"No, you deserve it."
Ma Xiaotao immediately retorted.
"As long as it can solve my problem, let alone a piece of Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber, I can do anything you want."
She just blurted out these words. After she finished speaking, she felt something was wrong and her face turned red again.
When she saw Yin Chen accepting the jade box, her heart finally fell halfway.
Now she wished she could let Yin Chen help her suppress Evil Fire immediately, and feel the long-lost feeling of Soul Power being able to operate at will.
But she remembered the teacher's instructions.
'Be sincere.'
So, she suppressed her inner eagerness and proactively said:
"Come on, let me help you refine this Whale Rubber first. This thing has a miraculous effect on improving physical fitness. Now is the time to lay the foundation. If you eat it, the benefits to your future will be immeasurable."
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand, and a wisp of dark red, solid Phoenix Flame ignited on her fingertips.
"I use my True Phoenix Fire to help you refine it, which can retain its medicinal properties to the greatest extent and allow you to absorb it better."
She did not rush to ask Yin Chen to help her, but first thought about helping Yin Chen improve her strength.
This gesture is indeed full of sincerity.
However, when Yin Chen heard her words, the expression on his face became strange.
He glanced at the leaping flame at Ma Xiaotao's fingertips, then at her pretty face that was filled with "I am sincere", and looked at her with a strange look.
"Now? Right here?"
"Well, what's wrong?"
Ma Xiaotao was made uncomfortable by the strange look in his eyes, and felt inexplicably guilty.
"It's not too late, isn't it?"
Yin Chen did not answer, but asked:
"Sister Xiaotao, don't you know?"
His tone was indescribably weird, as if he was looking at an innocent Xiao Bai rabbit.
"Is... is there anything I should know?"
Ma Xiaotao was confused by his question and replied angrily.
Yin Chen sighed and said in a tone that was half ridicule and half pity:
"Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber is extracted from the essence of whale Soul Beast. It is the most powerful and yang thing in the world."
"You let me, an eleven or twelve-year-old young man with strong vitality, eat this kind of thing directly in the wilderness..."
