The next morning, Ye Kong carried two bowls of brown sugar water out of the Xiaoyao Pavilion.
His eldest disciple, Qitian, hadn't left yet, so he had to brew some brown sugar water for her, or she would easily get angry.
One bowl was for Xiaobai, who was small and needed extra nourishment.
He also took the clothes he bought yesterday to Xiaobai.
When he returned yesterday, it was already evening, and he thought Xiaobai might be asleep, so he didn't go to find him.
Arriving at the Peach Mountain,
Ye Kong was about to go find Xiaobai when he accidentally saw Linyaoyao's delicate feet exposed, causing ripples in the water.
From the side, Linyaoyao's exquisite face wore a faint smile, her skin fair and delicate, as if it could be punctured by a gentle breeze.
Surrounded by peach blossoms, she exuded an indescribable allure.
My disciple is getting prettier and prettier. I wonder which pig from which family will be lucky enough to have this "big cabbage."
"Disciple!" Ye Kong called out.
Linyaoyao rose from the shore and saw her master carrying two bowls of brown sugar water. She bowed and called out, "Master!"
Ye Kong handed one bowl of brown sugar water to Linyaoyao.
"Here, disciple."
Linyaoyao frowned at the sight of the brown sugar water but still accepted it.
"Thank you, Master!" Linyaoyao said gratefully.
"You're welcome." Ye Kong smiled.
Ye Kong then carried the other bowl of brown sugar water to Xiaobai's cottage and called out,
"Xiaobai!"
Xiaobai inside the room heard the voice and opened the door, walking out. Upon seeing his master, he silently called out, "Master!"
Ye Kong handed the brown sugar water in front of him.
"Here, Xiaobai, nourish your body."
Xiaobai looked at the brown sugar water offered by his master but didn't reach out to take it.
Why is Master brewing sugar water for me all of a sudden?
Does he really think of me as a child?
I'm the Magic Emperor. Do I need this brown sugar water?
I drink blood and eat meat!
You treacherous master, I won't accept your kindness!
"Master, I'm perfectly fine. I don't need to drink sugar water." Xiaobai said on the surface.
"I know this sugar water is good for your health. Drink it." Ye Kong explained.
Xiaobai frowned upon hearing this. Is it really good for my health?
True or false?
Last time you asked me to sit by the fire, and it ended up burning away my cultivation.
Now you're giving me sugar water again. How do I know if it's poisoned?
As Xiaobai hesitated on how to refuse, he noticed the empty bowl.
Did Senior Sister also drink it?
Then it's fine. Master wouldn't betray even Senior Sister, would he?
"Thank you, Master!"
Xiaobai thanked his master and drank the sugar water in one gulp.
"Glug glug glug..."
After drinking, he handed the bowl back to his master.
"Cultivate diligently. When you're ready for Foundation Establishment, tell me, and I'll find the necessary items for you." Ye Kong said before turning and leaving.
Hmph!
If you hadn't burned away my cultivation, would I need to rebuild it?
But with my Magic Emperor's cultivation, Foundation Establishment is just a breeze.
Alright, considering you brewed sugar water for me, if the items you find for Foundation Establishment are good, I'll let you off this time.
Otherwise, I won't spare you!
Xiaobai said, turning back to his bed and sitting cross-legged.
He formed hand seals and continued cultivating the Xuanhuang Technique.
As soon as he activated the Xuanhuang Technique, Xiaobai immediately felt a warmth in his body, as if he were bathing in sunshine, extremely comforting.
I didn't expect that the brown sugar water Master gave me actually had medicinal effects. It's quite good.
The medicinal effects of the brown sugar water not only warmed Xiaobai but also flowed through his meridians and flesh, reshaping his bones and flesh.
Xiaobai was once the Magic Emperor, cultivating magic techniques.
His body was also a magical one.
If he didn't reshape his body, as he continued to cultivate for an extended period, his body would be unable to withstand the power of the Xuanhuang Technique and self-destruct.
The brown sugar water essentially changed Xiaobai's constitution, dissipating his magical body and turning it into an ordinary human one.
Xiaobai hadn't realized that his body was being reshaped, with his magical body disappearing and returning to normal.
Of course, Ye Kong hadn't anticipated this either.
At the pond, Linyaoyao drank the sugar water and entered the water.
She felt a warmth in her body, accompanied by a special power flowing through her.
On her surface, the illusions of a phoenix and nine dragons appeared.
"I didn't expect that the brown sugar water Master gave me has such a powerful medicinal effect."
"Where did he get it from?" Linyaoyao couldn't figure it out.
This medicinal effect was so strong that only high-level spirit plants could have such an effect.
It must be given by Master's elders. With Master's abilities, he couldn't have obtained such superior celestial materials and treasures.
Linyaoyao had sensed before that there were several old monsters sleeping within the sect.
However...
Master, you gave all the celestial materials and treasures to me and Xiaobai, leaving nothing for yourself.
Alas.
When I regain my strength, I won't forget to repay you.
Linyaoyao thought to herself, closed her beautiful eyes, and began cultivating the Xuanhuang Technique and the Nine Dragon Invincible Body.
Ye Kong returned to wash the bowls before sitting by the Bitter Sea to fish.
Qitian, my eldest disciple, is difficult to serve for seven days a month!
But with Xiaobai here, when Qitian gets angry, Xiaobai can take the brunt of it.
Xiaobai is fair-skinned and delicate. I'm sure Qitian wouldn't lay a hand on him, would she?
Ye Kong thought, picking up his fishing rod.
Inside Xiaobai's cottage,
After completing a cycle of cultivation, Xiaobai opened his eyes.
He clenched his fists.
"The brown sugar water Master gave me is quite good. It even helped me raise my cultivation level by one." Xiaobai smiled.
Getting off the bed, he waved his small fists, stretching his muscles and bones. After punching, Xiaobai's smile abruptly stopped.
He felt... as if his physical strength had vanished...
In the past, when he clenched his fists, they were tight and powerful, with each punch carrying a gust of wind.
Now, it was different.
Xiaobai jumped off the bed, clenched his fists, and without using his spiritual power, he punched the ground with his physical strength alone.
Pang!
After a moment,
"Ouch, ouch, ouch..."
Xiaobai quickly withdrew his hand, blowing on it.
"Huff, huff, huff..."
His right knuckles turned red, accompanied by pain.
After blowing on it for a while, he suddenly realized.
"Where's my physical strength? Why has my body become weaker?"
Xiaobai examined his body and found that it was like that of a newborn baby, white and rosy.
His once hard and powerful physical strength was gone.
Xiaobai took a deep breath and recalled that Master had given him a bowl of brown sugar water earlier.
It was warm.
After drinking it, his physical strength was gone.
"You treacherous master! You've destroyed my magical body again!" Xiaobai growled.
"Ah!"
Xiaobai growled angrily, his whole body turning red.
"As the Magic Emperor, I swear to have no mercy on you!"
If he hadn't lost his physical strength, he would have rushed out to fight his master right now!
It's one thing to destroy my cultivation, but now you've destroyed my magical body!
Wait for me, Master. When I grow stronger, I will make you pay.
Wait until Senior Sister is not at Xiaoyao Peak and no one is protecting you. Just wait and see what I do to you!
As the Magic Emperor, I've fallen into your hands twice. I swear it won't happen again!
I... I...
I want revenge!
