"We'll have to keep this from Mount Myoboku for now, and keep Jiraiya out of the loop too."
"As for a Devil Fruit..."
"I really can't decide just yet. I'll give it some more thought later."
She hadn't been all that concerned about getting stronger before, but now her thinking had completely changed.
She also felt she needed to find a suitable Devil Fruit and eat it as soon as possible to push her strength further.
Of course, she couldn't neglect Senjutsu either.

"All right, get on it. With what we're capable of now, we can get our hands on pretty much any fruit we want."
Xunjing nodded and offered a casual reminder.
"Uh... Senjutsu has that kind of downside? Doesn't that mean Jiraiya's going to turn into some kind of toad monster someday?"
"Tsk, tsk. Why do I suddenly feel sorry for him?"

"He brought it on himself! Who told him to keep showing off his Senjutsu in front of me? Now it's blown up in his face, hasn't it? Hmph!"
"Even if Xunjing does find a way to fix it someday, I'm going to leave him hanging and give him a good scare before we help him. That'll teach him a lesson and get me some payback."

So she had to get him on her side first.
"Heh, no problem!"
