Xia He shook her head. "I'm not sure."
The purpose of animal essences is to collect animal essences of five different attributes, then fuse them together, refine them into an energy halo, and finally release it into the sky to fill the void in this world.
Xia He said, "Hmm... and then? I don't need to worry about these two animal spirits anymore, I can just collect them?"
Xiao Lin nodded.
"Okay, I understand. Goodbye." Xia He turned and went home with the two little ones without looking back.
Xiao Lin stood there, stunned, and remained silent for a few seconds. "Wow, they escaped so quickly?...."
However, Xia He, who had just stepped out, seemed to remember something and returned to Xiao Lin's office. Without knocking, she opened the door and saw Xiao Lin holding a mirror, striking various handsome poses. A few seconds of silence followed, as if a crow had flown overhead...
Xia He cleared her throat. "Well, I've killed quite a few monsters, but I haven't had time to collect the crystal cores inside. I'd like to get some purification potions suitable for Panda and Tangyuan."
"That's easy, come with me." Xiao Lin put away the mirror and, feigning composure, led Xia He to Professor Fu's laboratory.
Professor Fu's laboratory at this time.
"Zhou Zihao! Can't you even do this?!" Fu Jing was yelling at Zhou Zihao.
Professor Fu, who was standing nearby, said, "Fu Jing! That's enough! Stop fooling around here and go home!"
"No, no, Brother Zihao clearly promised to develop a foundation for me!" Fu Jing was still pestering Zhou Zihao relentlessly.
“This is the apocalypse! Do you think you're still the pampered young lady you used to be? Where would you get the resources to research foundation for yourself?” Professor Fu said sternly to Fu Jing.
Fu Jing's eyes were already filled with tears.
Just then, Xiao Lin and Xia He, along with two children, knocked on the laboratory door. "It's me, Xiao Lin. Professor Fu, could you please open the door?"
Professor Fu gestured for Zhou Zihao to go open the door.
As soon as Fu Jing saw Xiao Lin arrive, she immediately transformed into a docile and affectionate woman, going to Xiao Lin's side. Just as she was about to wrap her arms around Xiao Lin's arms, Xiao Lin quickly stepped forward and blocked her.
Fu Jing was still calling out "Brother Xiao".
Xia He watched this scene coldly from the side, but to Fu Jing, it seemed as if Xia He was mocking her.
She retorted indignantly, "What are you laughing at! Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're by Brother Xiao's side! One day, Brother Xiao will be mine!"
Upon hearing this, Dr. Fu exclaimed, "Shut up! You wretched child! Get your ass home right now!"
Fu Jing persisted, calling her a "bitch!"
After saying that, she ran to Xiao Lin's side and looked at him with pitiful eyes, "Brother Xiao, what brings you to my dad's lab? I missed you so much."
Before Xiao Lin could speak, Xia He snorted coldly and stepped forward. "Oh? You slut? Are you talking about yourself?" After saying that, Xia He didn't want to say anything more. She directly injected spiritual power into her palm and slapped Fu Jing across the face. One slap wasn't enough. She slapped her again and again. Her palm, which was already infused with spiritual power, was not something an ordinary person could withstand. Even a mutated animal would have to think twice before slapping her.
In no time, Fu Jing's face had swelled up like a pig's head.
Professor Fu watched coldly from the side, while Zhou Zihao said, "Miss Xia, Fu Jing is young and naive, don't take it to heart."
"Oh? She's young and naive? It seems so? She's actually two years older than me."
After saying that, Xia He hit harder, and Fu Jing cried out to Xiao Lin for help, "Brother Xiao, save me! This bitch is beating me to death!"
Xiao Lin said coldly, "You're not someone I can call Brother Xiao. Please know your place!"
Xia He fanned Fu Jing until she couldn't speak, then mercifully withdrew her hand, and smiled at Professor Fu, saying, "Sorry, I hit her a little too hard."
Professor Fu's face was indifferent, but his eyes kept glancing at Fu Jing out of the corner of his eye. "It's my fault for not disciplining her properly. She lost her mother at a young age, and I did spoil her a bit. But now she's grown up like this. It's right to teach her a lesson. Otherwise, who knows what kind of trouble she'll cause in the future!"
Zhou Zihao carried Fu Jing, who had fainted on the ground, away, leaving only Xiao Lin, Xia He, Professor Fu, and the two little ones in the laboratory.
Professor Fu gathered his thoughts and said to Xiao Lin, "I'm sorry, you must have found this amusing. What brings you here?"
Xiao Lin said in a deep voice, "Xia He has made many contributions while she was away. Now she wants to get some purification potion suitable for glutinous rice balls and pandas."
Professor Fu said, "That's easy. We've heard about Miss Xia's bravery outside. These crystal cores were collected and organized by those mutant teams, and then they ended up in my possession. Miss Xia made a contribution, so these purified potions are rightfully yours." After saying that, he took out a large basket of purified potions, half of which were light-attribute ability crystal cores and half were strength-type ability crystal cores, for a total of 20 vials.
"Then thank you, Professor Fu," Xia He said.
"Then we'll take our leave," Xiao Lin said to Professor Fu.
The two of them left the lab. Xiao Lin held Xia He's hand and asked, "Were you jealous just now?"
Xia He tried to break free, but Xiao Lin was too strong, and she failed to break free. She could only let Xiao Lin hold her. "Let go of me!" Xia He said angrily.
"I won't let go, I'd rather die than let go. You're just jealous. When you slapped Fu Jing just now, I felt my face hurt. She insulted you, she deserved to be hit," Xiao Lin whispered in Xia He's ear.
"Stay away from me!" Xia He felt very uncomfortable.
Her thoughts drifted far away, and she was pulled all the way back to Xiao Lin's house by him.
