Swing the sword at the future female devil

Chapter 387 I have to leave some soup for Cang Ling!

Sister Ling felt as if she were living in some kind of ultimate, heaven-defying shadow, but she had no proof.

Seeing her young mistress blushing and refusing to reveal a single detail, Sister Ling sighed silently in her heart, and then began to introduce these rare and precious items:

"Nine Netherworld Mist Lotus grows at the bottom of extremely cold pools or in the crevices of ancient demonic abysses. Its flowers resemble lotuses sculpted from ice crystals, with petals displaying an eerie, ghostly blue hue."

"After taking it, it can greatly enhance the resilience of the soul, resist the invasion of inner demons, and improve the control over Yin and Ice attribute techniques." Sister Ling paused, then continued meaningfully:

"However, the terrifying cold power will freeze the blood, bone marrow and even the soul of the user. If the yin and yang are not balanced, it will freeze into an ice sculpture from the inside out, and life will be cut off. Even if the user does not die, he will fall into eternal cold and numbness, emotional indifference and sluggish thinking, like a living dead."

"This is called the Burning Heart Karmic Fire Bodhi Fruit. It grows on the immortal Bodhi tree in the lava core or in places frequently bombarded by heavenly lightning." Sister Ling picked up another fruit, about the size of a pigeon egg, crystal clear, with what seemed to be a tiny, flickering flame sealed inside. It emitted a scorching heat and a faint sandalwood fragrance, yet also contained a hint of anxiety.

"It is suitable for body-refining cultivators to temper themselves, and can also stimulate karmic fire to burn away karmic causes and effects, which has a miraculous effect on breakthroughs. However, it will ignite the deepest desires of the user, including but not limited to lust, murderous desire, greed, anger and so on."

"If not reconciled, one will fall into utter madness, with spiritual energy going out of control and self-immolating from the inside out, eventually turning to ashes. Even if one barely manages to suppress the self-immolation, one will be tormented by endless desires, with inner demons arising and the foundation of one's Dao collapsing."

Xiao Xie blinked, his gaze lingering on the Bodhi fruit for a few more moments. Seeing this, Sister Ling's heart skipped a beat, and she added, "This is best taken by those with a pure Yang constitution, that is, men. It's not good for girls to take it."

The socially awkward girl blushed slightly and nodded. Of course, she didn't want to eat it herself; if possible, she would naturally save it for Duan Huaige. This way, she could both leave the benefits of this rare treasure to him and allow Duan Huaige... well, to fully unleash his power.
Ugh... Am I being a bit too despicable? Forget about violating the rules of best friend etiquette, this is practically trampling on those rules altogether.
Xiyu, I'm so sorry! I'm not a good best friend, waaaaaah! How about we cancel this operation? Let's do it for my good best friend Xiao Jiang!

Seeing that Xie Cangling seemed to have temporarily lost interest in this dangerous spirit, Sister Ling couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. No matter what extraordinary plan her young lady was involved in, she at least had to do her best to protect this adorable little socially anxious girl in front of her.

"Next up is the Seven Emotions Entangling Dream Mushroom, which only appears in places where the emotions of living beings are extremely intense. It can greatly amplify the spiritual strength of the user and significantly enhance the power of illusions, charms, and mental attacks. After taking it, one can briefly experience and manipulate the emotions of others, and even weave extremely realistic illusions. It is of great help in comprehending the Way of Desire and the Laws of the Spirit."

"What a beautiful mushroom." The socially anxious little guy couldn't resist picking up the red umbrella-shaped mushroom in front of him. Its shape was that of a colorful umbrella-shaped fungus, and the patterns on the cap were constantly changing, reflecting emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hate, and desire, and emitting a sweet and exotic fragrance that made people sway their hearts.

Red umbrella, white pole, let's lie down together after eating?

"These are the only rare and precious items that meet your requirements so far. They were all obtained through Mr. Xie's quota. Do you intend to keep them all, Miss?"

Xie Cangling asked cautiously, "Sister Ling, are all of these very precious? If we keep them all, will Dad's credit limit be maxed out?"

"No, but it will affect Mr. Xie's application priority for the next three years."

"Oh." The girl breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. "Then it's alright." Sister Ling: ?
She's so filial! If Mr. Xie knew how much his little darling was siding with outsiders, wouldn't he be so angry he'd have a stroke on the spot?

Of course, Xiao Xie wasn't really raising a filial daughter. She hesitated for a moment, and finally asked cautiously, "I only need one kind, but can I tell you which one to keep later?"

Xie Cangling wanted to ask Duan Huaige before making a choice, but then the phone rang. She apologized to Sister Ling and went to the side to answer it.

"Hey Xiyu, what's wrong? Hmm? A spirit? What's wrong with you too?"

"Oh, it's okay. Okay, come on over, I happen to have what you want here."

Xiao She hung up the phone, walked over and said to Sister Ling with a guilty look, "Sister Ling, can I keep one more item?"

"Of course?" Sister Ling smiled and nodded calmly, but a few doubts arose in her heart.
The young lady just said: "The extra spiritual item you left behind is most likely for Jiang Xiyu."

But what would two girls want with such a strange, magical item with side effects? Surely they weren't going to play together as best friends?
Before long, Little Jiang the Great Demon King arrived at Xie Cangling's room. The two best friends held hands affectionately and exchanged some private words before getting down to business:
"Cangling, I can only entrust the matter of the spiritual treasure to you. You just said that you have found the spiritual treasure, is that true?"

"Well, I happen to have some at home." The socially awkward girl lowered her head guiltily, avoiding eye contact. Xie Cangling wanted to ask Jiang Xiyu why she also wanted such strange spiritual objects. Could it be that you were also tricked by Yan Qiuxi?
However, the socially awkward girl swallowed her words, knowing that if she asked, Little Jiang the Great Demon King would know that she was also carrying out the First Blood Operation.

"Great! May I take a look?"

Xiao Xie introduced the three spiritual items to Little Jiang the Great Demon King one by one, and also mentioned their corresponding side effects. Little Jiang the Great Demon King's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this, and he decisively said:
"Then I'll borrow this!" she said decisively, pointing to the Nine Netherworld Lotus.

A top-grade Yin-attribute spiritual object... If Xiao Duan were to eat it, and I were to happen to have cultivated the Crimson Lotus Body Tempering Technique, wouldn't that be perfect? ​​Hehehehe
Xiao Xie nodded upon hearing this. Although she said she was just borrowing it, she certainly didn't expect her good friend to return it. Seeing that she had obtained the magical item, Little Jiang the Great Demon King was in a great mood and was also extremely grateful to her good friend Xie Cangling for helping her so much.

Yan Qiuxi said she would help me, but she's been backstabbing me all along. Only Cang Ling has always been on my side! How could I bear not to share a bowl of soup with such a rare and wonderful best friend?

Thinking of this, Xiao Jiang said in a friendly tone, "Cang Ling... Recently, Xiao Duan and I are planning to participate in a group activity to explore some low-level secret realms, which can be considered as integrating into the ranks of the ants... oh, I mean, the masses. Would you like to come and have some fun with us?"

Xiao Jiang: It's decided! When we get to the secret realm, I'll create an opportunity for Xiao Duan to accompany Cang Ling and travel around! That way, I'll get the meat and my best friend the soup!
