“Are you feeling… any better?” Jiang Huai asked Bai Li cautiously, looking at her.
Bai Li’s aura was still weak, but she vaguely felt that after taking the medicine, the pain in her body seemed to have lessened significantly. She nodded gently, “Much better.”
“Then close your eyes and sleep a little longer. I’ll call you when I’ve finished refining the medicine.”
Bai Li obediently nodded and closed her eyes.
Jiang Huai began to diligently grind the herbs again. In the empty, desolate cave, he suddenly felt an absurd urge to laugh. Although the process seemed incredibly strange, at least the outcome wasn’t bad.
The second batch of medicine took quite a while to refine. It seemed like the Dragon Crystal would need to be processed more than ten times to be completely finished. Jiang Huai gently poked Bai Li’s little face. Bai Li slowly opened her eyes. This time, before he could speak, Bai Li obediently stuck out her tongue and licked the medicinal liquid clean.
“Are you better?”
“Much better.”
Jiang Huai could clearly see that Bai Li’s porcelain-white body was no longer covered in torn wounds. He took out a white blanket and gently draped it over Bai Li, leaving only her little head exposed. Then he said, “You continue to sleep. I’ll call you when I’m done.”
“Oh…” Bai Li obediently closed her eyes.
So, Jiang Xiaohu began his third attempt at refining the medicine.
Suddenly, he felt so ashamed that he wanted to die.
When he finished refining the medicine for the third time, he discovered that his legs weren’t weak at all. It seemed the Dragon Blood Spirit Fruit had strengthened his physique more than he realized. He turned with a bitter smile, about to wake Bai Li, but then he found Bai Li awake, her innocent eyes blinking at him.
“So, what is the medicine?” Bai Li asked, her eyes gazing at him innocently.
“This… I use my body as a furnace to refine the Dragon Crystal, and then convert the Dragon Crystal into Dragon Marrow. Although it seems very strange… but… the situation is urgent, so can you make do for now?” Jiang Huai’s voice sounded particularly shameful at this moment.
“So, what is it?”
“It’s… it’s… in the Warm Jade Exquisite Melody, it’s what the Fox Demon most likes to eat from the Scholar,” Jiang Huai said, using a metaphor they both understood.
“Oh…” Bai Li nodded. There was no trace of shyness or annoyance in her eyes, nor was she angry. She simply said, “But feeding it to me like this seems like such a waste.”
“Ah?”
It did seem like a tiny bit was wasted earlier.
“Hold me up,” Bai Li suddenly said.
Jiang Huai was stunned. He turned and came to her side, gently picking her up. Bai Li’s gaze shifted to the bluestone nearby, so Jiang Huai carried her to the bluestone and sat her down obediently. Her body was still covered by the blanket Jiang Huai had given her. Jiang Huai wrapped the blanket around her, and under the blanket, her white and tender little feet were as exquisite as jade.
Bai Li looked at him innocently, then her delicate pink lips parted slightly. She tried her best to press down her delicate pink tongue, then looked at Jiang Huai, her innocent eyes gazing at him, “This way it won’t be a waste.”
“This, this… this isn’t right, is it?”
“Are you shy?” Bai Li gazed at him innocently.
Clearly, the girl’s face was incredibly youthful. Logically, in this situation, it should be Jiang Huai looking helpless and Bai Li blushing with shame. But at this moment, it was Jiang Huai who was blushing, and Bai Li who looked helpless.
“My throat is very capable,” Bai Li said innocently, looking at him. After a moment’s thought, she added, “I can swallow a lot.”
“This, this, this…”
“I want to take my medicine,” Bai Li said, her eyelashes fluttering gently. “Then I won’t hurt anymore.”
Jiang Huai looked at the innocent, snow-white little face of the girl. In the end, he stood up, torn between laughter and tears. But he still felt it was so strange, so strange. How could anyone treat their good brother like this? Damn it!
Jiang Huai gently placed his hand on Bai Li’s head. Bai Li tilted her head up, her delicate pink lips parting a little wider.
…
Jiang Huai sat on the bluestone, his head feeling dizzy.
Bai Li was carefully licking the corner of her mouth. She could move her body a little now and was sitting obediently by the bluestone, muttering softly, “I feel… my body has become a little strange.”
“Strange?”
“Mmm, I can’t quite explain it, but it feels a little weird. It’s like… my forehead is itchy.” As Bai Li spoke, Jiang Huai looked back at her and suddenly noticed that a pair of small, ice-blue, coral-like antennae had indeed grown on Bai Li’s forehead.
These were dragon horns.
Jiang Huai took out a mirror for her, then carefully examined Bai Li for a long time. He suddenly realized that Bai Li’s body seemed to have grown a bit larger, and her face was no longer as youthful as before.
Bai Li reached out and gently touched the pair of antennae, then raised her head innocently to look at Jiang Huai, “Later… you can hold my horns.”
Jiang Huai’s eye twitched slightly. He heard her ask softly, “How much longer do you need to rest?”
“One, one incense stick’s worth?”
“Oh…” Bai Li’s white and tender little feet suddenly lifted, her snow-white toes resting on Jiang Huai’s leg. Her delicate pink toes wiggled slightly, and then her innocent eyes looked up at Jiang Huai, “You’re lying, you’re clearly rested.”
“This…”
“Ah…” Bai Li innocently raised her small face again, her delicate pink lips parting once more.
The girl’s tongue was soft, smooth, and burning hot.
…
After the sixth feeding.
Jiang Huai inadvertently turned his head to look at Bai Li and suddenly realized that her body had undergone far more than just a small change. She had almost grown taller by a lot. From her previous loli figure, she had now become a petite “older sister” type, her posture becoming tall and slender, her skin more lustrous than jade. Previously, only a small section of her slender ankle could be seen under the blanket, but now her entire snow-white, moist calf was exposed.
And the ice-blue coral dragon horns on her forehead were no longer as small as before; they had grown considerably, appearing delicate and incredibly beautiful. Her cheeks had also shed all their youthful immaturity. Jiang Huai was momentarily stunned.
If the previous Bai Li was cute and charming, then the current Bai Li was breathtakingly beautiful and sacred. Her features had matured. Although she still retained a hint of the previous Bai Li’s youthfulness, she now looked like an adult. Her eyes exuded a hint of nobility and sanctity, creating a subtle contrast with the innocence in her gaze.
“You’ve become so beautiful,” Jiang Huai couldn’t help but murmur, handing her the mirror. Bai Li was also stunned for a moment. Looking at herself in the mirror, even she felt a little unfamiliar.
“It must be because after obtaining the Dragon Crystal, the human form I transformed into has also changed,” Bai Li said softly. Jiang Huai nodded, thinking that this was indeed the reason. Then Bai Li tried to activate her spiritual energy again, and soon her body shrank again, returning to Bai Li’s previous appearance.
She looked at Jiang Huai innocently, “So, do you want me to feed you medicine like this, or in the appearance of an Older Sister?”
“This… it’s, it’s all the same, isn’t it?”
“No, you have to choose one.”
“Can I not choose?”
“No.”
“You, you, why are you so unreasonable!”
“I’m just that unreasonable.”
“Then, then let’s stick with Little Bai Li’s appearance…” Jiang Huai casually chose one, but the image of the previous Bai Li still lingered in his mind. He had felt an inexplicable stir of emotion earlier, because those eyes were too sacred. Legends say that dragons can also transform into human form, and the human forms they manifest are all incredibly beautiful, beyond comparison with any woman in the world.
Jiang Huai had always thought that aesthetic preference was a subjective matter, as everyone had their own likes and dislikes regarding appearance. But after seeing Bai Li’s transformed appearance earlier, he realized his heartbeat had skipped a beat. Fortunately, he immediately thought of his Master’s cold and aloof face. Yes, his Master was still the most beautiful.
“Okay,” Bai Li nodded obediently. Then she looked up, gazing at him innocently, “Do you have any more medicine?”
“Should have some after a rest.”
He still had to refine this Dragon Crystal seven more times. Jiang Huai felt like crying.
Even though a cultivator’s physique couldn’t be compared to that of an ordinary person, more than a dozen times was still quite troublesome. Bai Li thought for a moment, “Then you should rest for a while longer.”
“Mmm?”
“My lips are a little numb.”
“Okay.”
Jiang Huai let out a long sigh. However, during the rest period, Bai Li playfully reached out and placed her hand on Jiang Xiaohu’s. She could now move her body. As soon as Jiang Huai grabbed her wrist, Bai Li looked at him innocently again, “You’re lying again, you’re clearly rested.”
“This…”
“Then I’ll gather the medicine myself.” Bai Li’s small hand clenched tightly. After a while, she leaned down, her delicate pink lips parting slightly, and ate all the spirit medicine she had painstakingly gathered, not wasting a single drop.
Jiang Huai was about to cry, truly about to cry.
Bai Li gently rubbed her little belly. After a moment, she thought about it and placed her white and tender little feet on Jiang Huai’s leg, saying softly, “To compensate you, you can play with me.”
“I told you I’m not a pervert, ahhhhh!”
“I don’t believe you. After I read all your books, I guessed it. You are,” Bai Li said innocently, looking at him. But after a moment, her body changed again, transforming back into the “older sister” dragon lady. Her eyes blinked innocently, looking at Jiang Huai in front of her. Her incredibly sacred eyes made one feel inferior. Yet she said, “If I change into this, will you like it?”
The girl’s white and tender little feet became even more delicate and cute. Jiang Huai’s head swam. Bai Li reached out and gently grabbed the blanket on her body, pulled it off, and tossed it aside. She said softly, “Give me the soft ruler.”
Jiang Huai took out the soft ruler and handed it to her. She began to diligently measure the dimensions of her new body. Jiang Huai closed his eyes, not looking or speaking, but perhaps precisely because he closed his eyes, more strange fantasies filled his mind. When he came back to his senses, Bai Li had already stood up at some unknown time. She sat on top of him, put her arms around his neck, and looked into his eyes with her incredibly beautiful and sacred face, her expression innocent. Jiang Huai opened his eyes and met her gaze for a few seconds.
An innocent expression on such a sacred, dreamlike face was too strange.
“As long as the Dragon Marrow is in my body, can I refine it?”
“According to the old scrolls, yes.”
“Then do you want to deliver the medicine directly into my body?”
“No… I don’t want to…”
Bai Li’s lips moved to his ear, “Do you really not want to?”
“Really, really, really, really don’t want to!”
Think of Chu Xianning. Hurry, Jiang Huai, think of Chu Xianning! If Master knew you had taken another woman’s body, she wouldn’t give you another chance! Chu Xianning is a clean freak!
“Alright…” She got up from Jiang Huai. But a moment later, she leaned down again, her delicate pink knees gently touching the ground, kneeling in that posture. She raised her head, looking at Jiang Huai in front of her, and tucked her now longer, pure white hair behind her ear.
“But you’ve become so hot, so hot. Doesn’t seem like you don’t want it at all?”
On that face, as sacred as a goddess, a hint of cunning now appeared.
Jiang Huai dared not look down. Her body was as porcelain white as a beam of moonlight.
