Tao Yao held onto Lin Xu's head tightly, while a levitation device descended beside Lin Xu, and Xiao Yu also came to Lin Xu's side.
The female elf didn't speak, but stood close to Lin Xu's thigh and tugged at the hem of his clothes.
Lin Xu felt the tiny figure beneath his feet. His body gradually shrank, returning to its normal size, and then he reached out and touched Xiao Yu's head:
"You did a great job in the annihilation battle just now!"
Tao Yao reluctantly grabbed Lin Xu:
"What about me? What about me?"
Lin Xu rubbed Tao Yao's head:
"You're not bad either!"
Tao Yao giggled, then stared at Lin Xu's body as if she had just noticed the changes in his physique.
"Master, you can grow big and shrink!"
Lin Xu smiled and demonstrated to Tao Yao how his arm could become thicker and thinner.
He grasped this localized physical transformation as soon as he began using it, and it should be very useful in certain situations.
Tao Yao's eyes lit up:
"Master has our abilities too! Master, can you shrink now? Become as big as us, so we can stick together normally!"
Lin Xu's lips twitched.
He really can do it.
But to make him shrink for no reason is out of the question.
Especially now that he's shrunk, he's really the same size as Tao Yao and the others. If he's tempted by Tao Yao, he might actually do something.
This kind of thing is only suitable for Tao Yao and Xiao Yu to do when they are a little older and don't look so stupid.
Lin Xu reached out and pushed away Tao Yao's clinging face:
"We'll talk about shrinking later. Go gather your other companions and collect the spoils."
Tao Yao was somewhat dissatisfied, her cheeks puffed up:
"I already arranged for everyone to do these things. Master, are you afraid of us? Why won't you shrink?"
Lin Xu's expression was somewhat unnatural.
Was he afraid? No, he just refused to act like a beast!
However, Lin Xu didn't say those words aloud. Just as he was thinking about how to appease Tao Yao, this clingy girl, a seductive, mature female voice suddenly came from afar:
"Who are you? Why are you bothering this man like this!"
Lin Xu and the others turned their heads and saw Phantom holding the Soul Scythe, walking towards them step by step.
The female demon came to Lin Xu's feet, looking at Tao Yao and Xiao Yu with great vigilance, her hostility undisguised.
"This is my master. You women are not allowed to get so close to him without my permission!"
Lin Xu's lips twitched.
Unexpectedly, Phantom is quite possessive. Is she jealous in this situation?
But before he could even speak, Tao Yao and Xiao Yu had already exploded.
Xiaoyu pouted, her face showing dissatisfaction.
Tao Yao simply flew over and started shouting:
"Who are you! Why won't you let me get close to Master! I'm Master's favorite little girl!"
"Hmph! That won't be the case anymore!"
The Phantom puffed out her chest confidently:
"Once I return to my original size, my master will definitely stick to me every day. You little girl, you'd better obediently step back from now on!"
"What!"
Tao Yao cried out and flew to Mei Ying's side, trying to glare at her.
However, just as the two approached, they both frowned at the same time.
"What's going on? There's an aura about this person that I hate!"
Tao Yao pinched her nose and stepped back.
Phantom also took a step back, frowning as she stared at Peach Blossom. Then her eyes widened, and finally she exclaimed in surprise:
"You are an elf!"
She glanced at Xiaoyu again:
"You're an elf too!"
Phantom:
"How could there be Peach Blossom Spirits here! You creatures should have been swept into the dustbin of history and wiped out from the world long ago!"
Tao Yao frowned:
"We will never disappear! We were created by our master! As long as we have a master, we will never perish! But what about you? What kind of creature are you? Why does your aura smell so repulsive?"
Phantom was somewhat surprised and glanced at Lin Xu with astonishment.
She had heard that Lin Xu could provide enlightenment, but she didn't really believe it at first.
But now it seems, could that really be true?
However, at this moment, Peach Blossom clearly attracted more of Phantom's attention. After a moment of confusion, Phantom continued to stare at Peach Blossom.
The two stared at each other, and the atmosphere became somewhat tense.
Lin Xu watched this scene from the side and was somewhat surprised.
It turns out that the Shadow Clan and the Elf Clan are indeed opposite species.
Do they physically dislike each other?
However, these three girls are currently his property and are of great significance to the development of the island, so he is unwilling to see them become too divided.
Lin Xu coughed lightly:
"Gentlemen, please listen to me."
Tao Yao and Xiao Yu immediately turned their heads and waited obediently for Lin Xu to speak.
Phantom's expression showed some dissatisfaction, but when she saw Lin Xu about to speak, she pursed her lips, suppressed her rebellious instincts, and obediently waited for Lin Xu to speak.
Lin Xu was quite satisfied with the three women's friendly attitude.
If all three women listen to him, things will be much easier.
Lin Xu:
"This is Taoyao, and this is Xiaoyu. They are spirits I personally nurtured, important contributors to the island's development, and my close companions. So, Phantom, you should treat these two as your seniors, learn about the island's affairs, and not engage in malicious battles with them."
Phantom frowned even more, her small mouth pursed, clearly dissatisfied with this statement.
But since Lin Xu said these words, she still instinctively felt a desire to submit and was unwilling to resist.
After realizing the change in her heart, Phantom thought to herself that this was all due to the influence of the slave contract, and it was definitely not because she willingly accepted Lin Xu's words!
Lin Xu glanced at Meiying, then said to Xiaoyu and Taoyao:
“This is Phantom, a member of the Shadow Clan. She has lived for a very long time, at least two thousand years, so she knows many things that we don’t. She has also been a great help to the island, so you should not reject her, but treat her as a companion.”
When Tao Yao and Xiao Yu heard Mei Ying's age, they both showed surprise.
"A two-year-old auntie!"
Tao Yao blurted out.
Veins immediately bulged on the Phantom's forehead:
"You ignorant brat! Age represents knowledge, strength, and feminine charm! A little kid like you certainly wouldn't understand such principles!"
Tao Yao tilted her head:
"But I read in a book that men only like young and beautiful girls, and that men of all ages have the same preference."
Phantom gritted her teeth in anger, glaring at Lin Xu, seemingly hoping he would say something.
Lin Xu's lips twitched; he wanted to tell Tao Yao to read less of those miscellaneous books.
Up to now, no one knows what this elf has learned.
Then he looked at the Phantom again.
Although he really wanted to see the girls argue, especially the way Phantom looked when she got the short end of the stick.
However, continuing to let Tao Yao speak freely may jeopardize the island's future unity.
Lin Xu then said:
"Tao Yao, men just like pretty girls. As for age, as long as their appearance hasn't changed, it doesn't matter much."
"oh!"
Tao Yao nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite:
"I see, age isn't that important after all..."
As Meiying watched and listened to Lin Xu's explanation, and saw Tao Yao earnestly receiving the lesson, she suddenly felt that Lin Xu, this seemingly wise and insightful master, seemed a little unreliable in some ways.
However, before Phantom could think further, Peach Blossom appeared before him, somewhat awkwardly putting her hands behind her back.
"Although I dislike your aura, since it's my master's request, I will definitely try my best to get along with you and become your companion!"
Xiaoyu, who was standing to the side, also spoke up:
"I will also be your companion."
"snort!"
Phantom arrogantly raised her chin, clearly about to say something boastful again, but when she saw Lin Xu looking at her, she changed her mind:
"Okay, then I'll accept you too."
