"This pill... you... where did you get this!!"
Ma Xiaotao grabbed Bai Zhou's shoulder, completely agitated. She wished she could capture the Alchemist who refined this pill right now, lock them in a small dark room, and make them refine pills like crazy!
This pill was simply too Heaven-Defying, practically tailor-made for her evil fire!
The only flaw might be that it wasn't long-lasting.
Because she could feel that the icy cold power was constantly being consumed. In about five or six days, her evil fire would flare up again, requiring her to take the pill again.
So she had to find the source of this pill, so she wouldn't have any worries!
"Xiao Tao... Senior Sister, the origin of this pill is mysterious, it's not easy to reveal..." Bai Zhou glanced at the students gathering around and pretended to hesitate.
"Okay, come with me!"
Ma Xiaotao was decisive. She scooped Bai Zhou into her arms, soared into the sky, and disappeared into the distance.
"What are you doing... don't hold so tight..."
In the sky, Ma Xiaotao looked at Bai Zhou holding her tightly and felt very strange...
This caused her flight path to be a bit unstable, and a different kind of blush instantly appeared on her fair and delicate face.
"Senior Sister Xiao Tao, I'm afraid of heights."
Bai Zhou said in a muffled voice, taking a deep breath from time to time.
"You..."
Ma Xiaotao strongly suspected this kid was doing it on purpose, but she had no proof.
Besides, she was the one who brought him up here. Now that they were over Sea God Lake, she couldn't just drop Bai Zhou. After all, Bai Zhou held the secret of that Xuanbing Pill, and she couldn't afford for Bai Zhou to have an accident.
Ma Xiaotao's speed was very fast. In less than a minute, she successfully landed and then pulled Bai Zhou into a clean courtyard.
...
"This is where I live, no one dares to come near here. Now you can tell me."
Ma Xiaotao asked somewhat impatiently.
Bai Zhou hadn't expected Ma Xiaotao to just pull him directly into her boudoir...
However, seeing Ma Xiaotao's impatient look, Bai Zhou didn't plan to hide it to avoid angering Ma Xiaotao.
"This Xuanbing Pill is a product of my Spirit. My Spirit is called Wishing Tree, and originally it could only condense some ordinary items. But one day, I was pleasantly surprised to find that my Wishing Tree seemed to have mutated. It can condense some low-level pills..."
Bai Zhou began to make up a story, adding a "customized pill" effect to his Wishing Tree.
Although it was absurd, Spirits came in all sorts of strange varieties, and any kind of Spirit could exist. Ma Xiaotao naturally had no doubts, because the Xuanbing Pill genuinely existed and was effective.
"So that's how it is. I really need this kind of pill. How many can your junior brother's Spirit condense in a day?"
Ma Xiaotao continued to press him.
"This..."
Bai Zhou hesitated.
"Don't worry, name your price. I will pay for every pill. As long as you can continuously condense Xuanbing Pills for me, I won't treat you unfairly." Ma Xiaotao patted her chest, looking generous.
"It's not about the price. My Spirit is the Wishing Tree, but it doesn't necessarily make wishes come true 100%. The probability of condensing a Xuanbing Pill is very low, only one per month. This isn't something I can control, it completely depends on Luck." Bai Zhou spread his hands, looking helpless.
Of course, the Xuanbing Pill wasn't actually very precious. As long as he daily harvested from Wang Dong, the wish success rate was 100%.
However, this definitely couldn't be said, otherwise, he would definitely become Ma Xiaotao's wishing machine, locked in a small dark room wishing for a lifetime...
"What, half a month..."
Hearing this, Ma Xiaotao's brows furrowed sharply.
Because the Xuanbing Pill's effect on her only lasted for five or six days, a month was simply too long.
"Can't it be sped up?" Ma Xiaotao asked with a frown.
"My Wishing Tree can also grant wishes for others. Everyone's Luck is different, and the probability is also different. My Luck is relatively poor. Senior Sister Xiao Tao, you are so beautiful, your Luck should be better. You can come and make a wish yourself."
As Bai Zhou spoke, he summoned his Wishing Tree Spirit.
"You little junior brother, you're really smooth-tongued~" Ma Xiaotao couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh when she heard Bai Zhou's praise.
"I'm telling the truth."
Bai Zhou said honestly.
"How do I make a wish? Do I just say it out loud?"
Ma Xiaotao changed the subject, examining Bai Zhou's Wishing Tree up and down.
"Yes, just like making a birthday wish."
Hearing this, Ma Xiaotao put her hands together and made a wish to Bai Zhou's Wishing Tree: "Xuanbing Pill, Xuanbing Pill, I want a Xuanbing Pill!"
The next moment, Bai Zhou's Wishing Tree immediately lit up with white light.
"It worked?"
Ma Xiaotao was a little excited.
The next moment, a small bear biscuit fell into Ma Xiaotao's palm.
Bai Zhou: ... (Suppressing laughter)
Ma Xiaotao: ...
"Bastard, I want a Xuanbing Pill, not a small bear biscuit!! Did your Wishing Tree not go to school?"
Ma Xiaotao threw away the small bear biscuit, clearly furious.
"Senior Sister Xiao Tao, my Wishing Tree can grant wishes 3 times a day, you can try again..." Bai Zhou suggested.
Of course, Bai Zhou said this also because he was afraid Ma Xiaotao would treat him as a wishing tool, so limiting the number of times was necessary.
"Xuanbing Pill, Xuanbing Pill! I want a Xuanbing Pill!! Xuan! Bing! Pill!!" This time, Ma Xiaotao deliberately corrected her pronunciation to avoid the Wishing Tree misunderstanding again.
The next moment, two small bear biscuits appeared in Ma Xiaotao's hand.
Ma Xiaotao: ...
Ma Xiaotao didn't believe it and wished again, and it was still small bear biscuits.
"Are you lying to me!! What Xuanbing Pill, there isn't even a pill!!" Ma Xiaotao was exasperated. She grabbed Bai Zhou by the collar, feeling cheated.
"I told you, it purely depends on Luck... My Spirit is just like this, I can't do anything about it..." Bai Zhou spread his hands, pretending to be innocent.
Ma Xiaotao calmed down slightly and felt it made sense. After all, she had never heard of this Xuanbing Pill, and neither had her Teacher.
To be able to produce such a miraculous pill, perhaps only a miraculous Wishing Tree Spirit like Bai Zhou's could do it.
"Then your Wishing Tree is too trashy. I wished three times and didn't get a Xuanbing Pill." Ma Xiaotao said sullenly.
She completely ignored the possibility that it might be because of her bad Luck.
Of course, even if Ma Xiaotao had Heaven-Defying Luck, she couldn't get a Xuanbing Pill, because Bai Zhou had only drawn one, and currently, there was only one in this World, which Ma Xiaotao had already swallowed...
Bai Zhou thought for a moment and comforted her, "It's okay. Senior Sister Xiao Tao can come to me every day to make a wish. I'll wish once, and Xiao Tao Jie can wish twice. We should be able to get another Xuanbing Pill. I believe in Senior Sister Xiao Tao's Luck."
"Alright... that's the only way." Ma Xiaotao sighed. She thought she was about to take off, but who knew...
However, one Xuanbing Pill could last for several days, which was also good news. At least it was much better than Xu Sanshi, that useless guy who couldn't even get water out every day.
Xu Sanshi: ...
"Oh right, little junior brother, I still don't know your name?" Ma Xiaotao suddenly thought of something and asked somewhat awkwardly.
Bai Zhou: You finally remembered this point...
"My name is Bai Zhou."
Bai Zhou, please take care of me, Senior Sister Xiao Tao.
Bai Zhou extended his hand, revealing a bright and sunny smile.
"Mm, my name is Ma Xiaotao. You can call me Xiao Tao Jie from now on, so it doesn't seem distant. If you encounter anything in the academy in the future, just mention my name, and I'll cover you."
Ma Xiaotao stroked Bai Zhou's head, clearly very satisfied with Bai Zhou.
Not only was he handsome, but he also knew how to talk, and he had a miraculous Spirit like the Wishing Tree. He was truly a cute little junior brother.
The two discussed the time and place for wishing in more detail, and then Ma Xiaotao picked up Bai Zhou and crossed Sea God Lake again...
Bai Zhou still held Ma Xiaotao tightly, occasionally taking a deep breath to avoid suffocating.
Ma Xiaotao glanced at Bai Zhou, her face pink, but she didn't stop him.
After all, to make the horse run, you definitely have to give the horse grass.
Giving this cute little junior brother some benefits, she didn't feel any resistance.
