Chapter 24: Immortal Herb
Half an hour later, Nanali's hands were almost completely sore. Although she was extremely disgusted with serving others, she put on an excited expression as if she had been honored, like a concubine being favored by the emperor.
emm,気志ち悪いね～
But why isn't this ancestor leaving yet?!
Just then, Su Jiu opened her eyes. As she opened and closed them, strands of vital energy flowed through her. Her soul power had recovered by more than half, and she was no longer as weak as before.
This startled Nanali, and a look of panic flashed across her face. Could this guy read minds?
Su Jiu ignored Nanali and clenched his right fist. The sound of bones grinding together was like popping beans. The soreness and numbness were still there, but the injuries caused by the roar of the Flame Demon had mostly healed.
"Little Bell, you may leave now."
Nanali was overjoyed, as if granted a pardon. She wanted to leave on the spot, but when she thought about how she had now become a maid in the Leng family, she gracefully lifted the sides of her skirt before leaving, bowed to Su Jiu, and said something in a language that made Su Jiu feel inexplicable, yet extremely shy and ashamed.
「はい、ごMaster様」
After Nanali left, only he and Nanali remained in the private room, while the little white-eyed dragon was still frantically devouring the small cake.
He remembered that he had put out almost a whole table of small cakes, and in such a short time, there were only a few left?
Na'er's appetite once again exceeded Su Jiu's expectations. It was fortunate that he was backed by the Leng family, a super-rich family, otherwise he really couldn't afford to raise the little silver dragon.
When only one cake remained on the plate, Su Jiu stepped forward, grabbed it, and put it in her mouth.
It melts in your mouth, bursting with milky and fruity flavors. No wonder it's a favorite among foodies.
But Su Jiu narrowed her eyes. Logically speaking, the little silver dragon should be bristling with anger at this moment. What's with her smiling face now?
"Old Su, isn't it delicious? This is a piece that Na'er specially saved for you, and it's the best one!"
Na'er's words warmed Su Jiu's heart, and she couldn't help but feel a surge of self-respect. The little silver dragon she had raised for so long had finally learned to treat her well.
"Old Su, next time there's a place like this where you can eat and drink for free, you have to take me with you. You've already paid for it, so you can't go back on your word!"
A pearl cast before swine, its worth unknown!
Su Jiu's laughter vanished instantly, her previous emotions scattering like birds and beasts in shock.
Okay, okay, you like to eat it, right?
He looked at Na'er's big, bright eyes, her face full of expectation. He was unhappy, so why should he want to make her happy?
"Na'er, given that you've been eating too well lately and have overnutrition, for your health's sake, for the next week you can only eat rice with pickled vegetables, and you won't get any pocket money."
"It's no use pleading with Sister Yaozhu."
After saying that, Su Jiu gently pinched Na'er's chubby little belly, which was all thanks to him.
Connor did not show the displeasure Su Jiu had expected. Instead, she looked at Su Jiu with disdain, one hand on her hip and the other pointing at him.
"Old Su, do you know that what you're doing is child abuse? According to federal law, you'll be going to jail."
Immediately afterwards, Na'er's expression transformed into that of an incredibly irritating little devil.
"Old Su, you probably don't want to go to jail for not giving Na'er good food, do you?"
Su Jiu hardened; his fist hardened.
Who on earth taught Na'er all this stuff?!
"Hehe~ Old Su, you're out of options now, aren't you? This is something Ajiu always taught me, and I never thought I'd use it on you first, hehehe~"
Su Jiu: "..."
This is a classic case of shooting oneself in the foot; one reaps what one sows, so there's no point in getting angry.
He usually wears Ajiu's disguise to tell her these stories just to teach her a few tricks, but it seems he used all those tricks on himself.
Well then, let me show you how treacherous the world can be!
"Oh, Na'er, haven't you heard the saying 'money makes the world go round'? Our Leng family has plenty of money. Go ahead and report me. Let's see if I end up in jail!"
Na'er instantly became alert. Oh no, she had miscalculated!
Ajiu also told her that the law is just a tool to restrain ordinary people, and never underestimate the methods of the rich, since 99% of things in the world can be settled with money.
"Old Su, Old Su, Na'er was wrong. Na'er shouldn't have threatened you. Please forgive Na'er, okay? I'm sure you don't want Na'er to starve herself just by eating rice and pickled vegetables, right?"
As she spoke, Na'er immediately backed down, grabbed Su Jiu's leg, looked up at Su Jiu, and had two crocodile tears in her eyes.
"Actually, it's not impossible for me to forgive you. In seven days, our Leng family will hold a grand banquet, and Na'er will appear as my childhood sweetheart. That's all."
"Okay, I agree!"
Na'er thinks this is a huge win!
The status of a child bride is only for three years. After three years, Na'er will be a free Na'er. It would be better to take advantage of this empty title now to make Su Jiu happy and get good food and drinks.
Su Jiu smiled and took out many exquisitely designed small cakes from her storage soul tool and placed them on the table.
"Sweetie, eat slowly, there's plenty more."
"Hehe~ Old Su, you're the best (gold coins)!"
……
When Su Jiu arrived at the auction stage, the auction had just ended.
The Temple of War successfully bid for the Dark Hummingbird's three-word battle armor, and Wu Changkong from Shrek Academy relaxed his brows slightly.
It's obvious that Dark Hummingbird's fate was to have all its information extracted from it, then be publicly tried and put on live television, and finally be executed.
Although he couldn't personally kill the person who murdered his wife, it was far better than some families secretly breeding elite offspring of the Dark Hummingbird.
Upon seeing Su Jiu arrive, a murderous glint flashed in his cold eyes. The Dark Hummingbird had fallen, but he had found a new mortal enemy: Leng Wuduan, the one who insulted his beloved teacher!
Yali was almost in tears, because it was that extreme fire and the dual elements of destruction again, and the injuries that left her powerless to help!
This time, it actually happened to her husband, Yun Ming!
Upon seeing Su Jiu appear, Ya Li immediately grabbed the jade box next to Yun Ming and rushed over, her attitude unusually humble.
Yun Ming was extremely displeased with Ya Li's behavior and wanted to step forward to stop her, but he was blocked by a group of elders from the Sea God Pavilion.
They wanted a living, intact Yunming more than Yunming's dignity.
"Your Majesty, could you please, for the sake of my friendship with Yaozhu, remove the elemental residue remaining on Yunming? This is the immortal herb I promised you before; I, Yali, will repay you handsomely afterward!"
In fact, Su Jiu came out because of Yun Ming's matter. Previously, he had exhausted his soul power and could not annihilate the elements on Yun Ming's body at all.
Therefore, Su Jiu planned to recover some soul power first, and could only suffer for Yun Ming for the time being.
Sure enough, after the extreme fire and destructive elements were cleared from Yun Ming's severed limbs and arms, Ya Li's complexion instantly improved.
Yunming's arm can be reattached!
Some flesh and bones were completely destroyed, and when they were reconnected later, there were some inconsistencies, but these minor issues are not problems.
Qian Gu Dongfeng, who was pulling Qian Gu Zhangting away, had a gloomy look in his eyes. He did not expect that Su Jiu had become so strong. It was simply unbelievable!
Should we bring in the Eternal Heaven too, and bomb Su Jiu?
But Chen Xinjie seemed to have thought of something, and a faint smile appeared on his lips. He then led his group of war gods and turned to leave the place...
