On the other side.
The Demon Palace, the Demon Lord's Hall.
As Chu Xinxin worked diligently day and night, absorbing the divine power of the rare and precious herbs that the Demon Lord had found for her, the leaves became increasingly fertile.
Finally, on a beautiful sunny day with a gentle breeze, I successfully transformed!
only--
"System, can you explain why I'm only the size of a five or six-year-old girl's palm?!"
Chu Xinxin raised her hand and compared it to the flowerpot; it was pitifully small.
Isn't this good? Look in the mirror, aren't you adorable?
The system's voice suddenly became full of compassion.
"But this is too small! What can I do with this body?"
[Are you being cute?]
"roll!"
Chu Xinxin slapped the flowerpot, then cried out in pain, "It hurts so much!"
[Sister, why do you care so much? If you have a mouth, eat the Yaoqing Grass over there first.]
"If I ate it... wouldn't the Demon Lord have discovered it immediately!?"
Chu Xinxin hesitated.
It's okay, I'm here.
The system then confidently assured everyone: "I guarantee I'll conjure up one that looks exactly the same."
Chu Xinxin said with a look of disgust: "Come on, stop making promises. Every time you make a promise, I feel like something bad is going to happen."
[The villain dies from talking too much! Hurry up and eat, stop being so long-winded!]
If the system had a physical form, it would simply stuff the Yaoqing Grass into her mouth.
"Then help me up there! I'm too short to even climb up Yaoqingcao's flowerpot!"
【oh. 】
The system provided Chu Xinxin with a ladder.
Chu Xinxin climbed onto the flowerpot, ran towards the Yaoqing Grass, and once there, she opened her little mouth without hesitation, revealing her sharp teeth, and took a bite—
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Don't eat me, waaaaaah..."
Chu Xinxin loosened her teeth: "System, are you talking?"
system:......
Chu Xinxin immediately knew the answer—
A flash of white light appeared before their eyes, and Yao Qingcao transformed into a chubby boy as tall as Chu Xinxin.
"It was me speaking."
The chubby boy sobbed, tears welling in his eyes, and raised his arm, which had been bitten by Chu Xinxin, looking extremely aggrieved and pitiful: "Waaah, it hurts so much."
Chu Xinxin glanced at him twice, then looked past him at the spot where the Yaoqing Grass had originally been planted; a patch of soil there was now empty.
Then her gaze shifted back to the chubby boy. Chu Xinxin blinked a few times and asked uncertainly, "Are you the Yaoqing Grass?"
"Um."
Yao Qingcao was wearing a light green vest. She was fair-skinned and tender, with arms that looked like sections of lotus root, making her quite adorable.
As she spoke, her chubby cheeks bounced a few times. Chu Xinxin reached out and pinched one of them; they were bouncy, soft, and had an excellent feel!
"Don't pinch me, it hurts!" Yao Qingcao whispered, but dared not dodge.
Chu Xinxin rubbed her several more times.
The technique is the same as kneading dough.
Oh no, I'm going to get eaten.
Thinking of this, Yao Qingcao covered the spot where Chu Xinxin had just bitten her, tears falling drop by drop.
"Hey, don't cry." Chu Xinxin felt a pang of guilt. "Let me see, did you bite really hard?"
She moved Yao Qingcao's hand away, revealing a deep ring of teeth marks on her once chubby arm.
Green leaf sap flowed out.
A sense of guilt and disgust rose in Chu Xinxin's heart: "System, will putting a band-aid on him help?"
The system did not respond.
"Stop pretending, he heard me communicating with you telepathically just now."
system:……
He's playing dead again!
Chu Xinxin angrily brought up the system page, intending to give him a piece of her mind. As soon as the page appeared, Chu Xinxin saw a red light on.
"Holy crap, the Demon Lord is back!"
Yao Qingcao stopped crying and hurriedly tried to turn around and go back to her pit, but saw Chu Xinxin still reaching out and climbing down her mini ladder.
This is driving me crazy!
Yao Qingcao rushed forward, grabbed Chu Xinxin by both hands, lifted her up, and like throwing a shot put, swung her chubby little arms around her twice, and with a "biu" she threw Chu Xinxin back onto her own flowerpot.
The small ladder was also quickly taken away by the system.
"Hey, what are you doing... Ah!"
Chu Xinxin's body suddenly slammed back into her basin.
He spun and fell, his head spinning, when just then he heard hurried footsteps outside the door.
Chu Xinxin suppressed her dizziness and climbed back into her pit to revert to her original form.
The door opened as soon as the transformation ended.
He really is the Demon Lord.
Nan Guangyu had vaguely heard some noises inside the room from outside the door. He rushed in to take a look and found that everything in the room was as before. Yaoqing Grass and Nine-Turn Chaos Divine Flower were still standing quietly in front of the window.
A hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.
Nan Guangyu sighed inwardly, slowly walked to the window, and moved the Nine Revolutions Chaos Divine Flower further into the sunlight.
Next, he wanted to move the Yaoqing Grass next to it as well.
As soon as his hand touched the flowerpot, Nan Guangyu noticed that the bottommost leaf of the Yaoqing grass seemed a little different. Upon closer inspection, he saw that it was a tooth mark.
Nan Guangyu's eyes darkened, then he pretended nothing had happened, moved the Yaoqing Grass next to the Nine Revolutions Chaos Divine Flower, then went to his desk to get a bamboo scroll, and went out again.
After Chu Xinxin watched the red light on the system homepage go out, the whole grass lay on the ground as if it had withered.
"Does the Demon Lord think he's Zhao Zilong? He went in and out three times, it scared me to death."
[That's normal. The Demon Lord comes in and out several times a day to water your plants and exchange for rare and precious herbs. I'm used to it...]
Is he very free?
[Isn't this because I'm afraid you'll get thirsty if I water you too little, and afraid you'll drown if I water you too much?]
"The Yaoqing Grass can survive for years without watering..."
When Yaoqing Grass was mentioned, Chu Xinxin turned her head to look over.
The Yaoqing grass stood upright, motionless, and began to pretend that it had no intelligence, had not taken human form, and could not understand anything.
Because it reflects a faint fluorescence under the sun, the whole plant looks ethereal and otherworldly...
Chu Xinxin & System: Tsk, even better at pretending than me.
The system slowly said, "Now that the Demon Lord is gone, sister, let's eat the Yaoqing Grass first."
Chu Xinxin touched her chin: "Frying, steaming, boiling, hmm... let's eat it raw."
After saying that, he pretended to jump over Yao Qingcao's side. Yao Qingcao was so frightened that she trembled and quickly said, "Don't eat me! Don't eat me!"
[If I don't eat you, who will I eat?]
The system spoke in a threatening voice: "Anyone who knows of my existence has no reason to live!"
"Waaaaah, System brother, I won't tell anyone."
Yao Qingcao burst into tears: "Just treat me like I'm dead, just like before."
Chu Xinxin & System: ...
Don't waste your breath on him, just eat him.
The system's tone turned serious: "Do you really want to be controlled by incantations again? I can't guarantee I can save you next time."
Upon hearing this, Yao Qingcao immediately transformed into a tiny person, lifted her two chubby little legs, and ran away.
It ran to the flowerpot, jumped down, and the cute chubby baby fell face-down onto the table with a "thud"...
Chu Xinxin: "System, what should I do? He's so cute, I can't bring myself to kiss him, sob sob..."
The system, exasperated, replied: "Just wait until Meng Ji kills you."
The three of them started arguing back and forth, completely unaware that a wisp of black mist was clinging to the eaves. They listened for a long time.
