Chapter 212 - 212 Powerless
212 Powerless
Dong Xi did not struggle and just lay on the floor.
“I’m powerless,” Dong Xi said.
Seeing Dong Xi in such a sorry state, Su Cheng wanted to ask what she had done, but before he could say anything, he saw Dong Xi take out a bottle of pills from her storage ring and throw it over.
“Here, these are your medicinal pills,” said Dong Xi.
Su Cheng took the bottle, opened the cork, and sniffed it. He was satisfied.
The medicine bottle in Su Cheng’s hand disappeared into thin air. He said, “You actually managed to refine it so quickly? It seems that I’ve underestimated your strength.”
Dong Xi did not say a word. Su Cheng continued, “Although the quality of your pill is a little lacking, I have forgiven you. What we agreed on before is still valid. Now, are you going to that treasure land?”
Dong Xi thought to herself, ‘Can’t he see that I’m already so tired? What can I do after sending me in? This snake is the reincarnation of an idiot, right?’
Dong Xi stared straight at Su Cheng for a long time before tactfully saying, “I’m a little tired.”
Unexpectedly, Su Cheng raised his eyebrows in surprise. He said, “What? A competitive queen like you can get tired?”
Dong Xi was silent for a moment. After a long time, Dong Xi said with hidden bitterness, “It’s all because of you, right? I’ve never seen anyone so crazy as to force someone else to refine pills so much higher than their level. In order to refine these pills, I ate an entire bottle of Spirit Restore Pills!”
Su Cheng looked at Dong Xi with a rare look of appreciation. He said, “As expected, it’s better for humans when someone is forcing them to do something. Why don’t you try to refine a fourth-grade pill tomorrow?”
Dong Xi rolled her eyes and did not want to continue talking to such a person.
Dong Xi stood up and walked out. It was already very late, and the moon was hanging in the sky. It was just the right time to cultivate.
But after Dong Xi took a few steps, she heard Su Cheng say again, “When’s the next time you’re going to refine pills?”
Dong Xi looked tired, but what did this have to do with Su Cheng? Su Cheng was determined to get those pills.
Dong Xi stopped in her tracks. She wanted to say next month, but after thinking for a moment, she felt that something was wrong. A smile appeared on his face. Dong Xi said, “We’ll talk about it when we’re happy.”
With that, Dong Xi pushed open the stone door and left. Who knew when she would be happy?
At that time, Dong Xi could be in a bad mood because of the hot weather or Su Cheng’s cold face. Who could control that?
Su Cheng looked at the closed stone door and fell into deep thought.
Happy? What would make that little girl happy?
Su Cheng thought for a long time but still could not figure it out. He took out the communication jade slip Dong Xi gave him and sent an anonymous message. This was the first time in a thousand years.
[How can I make a little girl happy?]
After Su Cheng sent it out, he did noot have much hope. In Su Cheng’s eyes, no one in the Immortal cultivation world would care about these things, right?
However, there were still many people who meddled in other people’s business. Not long after Su Cheng’s message was sent out, it resonated with many people.
[Fellow Daoist, do you have a child at home? How old is the little girl? A little girl is even more difficult to deal with than a demon beast.]
[Not only are they difficult to deal with, but the cost is also very high. Just the marrow cleansing alone has cost me half of my assets, but I’m still not willing to do it. Immortal master has given me four sets of spirit plants, and there are still three sets that I haven’t used yet. I’m afraid this money has been spent in vain.]
[The Fellow Daoist above is right. My little girl is the same. Every time I coax her, I have to spend resources to make her happy.]
…
Su Cheng read each message seriously and had some thoughts in his mind. Compared to these little girls, the one in the courtyard did not seem too hard to please.
After checking more than a dozen messages, someone finally answered the question.
[When little girls throw tantrums, they usually come and go quickly. Fellow Daoist, you can prepare something that the little girl usually like. This way, the little girl will be happy faster.]
[I have a lot of experience in this area. Every time my little girl gets angry, I will take her out to play. She will be fine after she has had enough fun.]
…
Su Cheng noted down all their ideas. The easiest one was to buy something that the girl liked and spirit fruits.
Su Cheng held the spirit fruit in his hand and thought for a moment. Su Cheng slowly disappeared, and no one in the courtyard noticed.
Dong Xi sat cross-legged on the futon, feeling the rich spiritual Qi in the surroundings. Suddenly, an idea came to her. Had her spirit root value also increased?
In the beginning, Dong Xi thought that there was a problem with the testing spirit stone. However, after three consecutive tests, the value of her spirit root had also increased three times.
Moreover, the speed of her cultivation could not be fake.
