Xiao Baichi thought that Qi Yu's hesitant look meant she wanted to back out, and said, "If the pills I refine are better than yours, Qi Yu, then you should apologize to Senior Sister Shen Shen!"
Qi Yu didn't care at all about just opening her mouth.
Xu Shen Shen tugged at Xiao Bai Chi's sleeve and said softly, "Junior brother, you don't have to do this."
Her pure and innocent image made Xiao Baichi's protective instincts surge even more. He said to Qi Yu, "Senior Sister Shen Shen's tolerance and magnanimity are the true demeanor of a cultivator. Qi Yu, you only have five spiritual roots and a narrow mind. You will not go far!"

Xiao Baichi's anger vanished instantly after being praised, and he felt like he was floating on air. He walked back to his alchemy furnace, took out a fire talisman, and was determined to compete with Qi Yu.
As spiritual energy flowed into the fire talisman at the bottom of the alchemy furnace, a flame suddenly rose up, illuminating Qi Yu's face as he focused intently.
