When Xu Wan opened her eyes, she was being carried down the mountain by Zhu You.

Noticing the movement in his arms, he looked down at her.

"Wanwan?"

She nodded, pointed to her throat, and mouthed the word "pain" to him.

Just as I was about to tell her to get some rest, I saw her looking around as if she were searching for someone.

Knowing who she wanted to see, he stopped and called out to her.

"Fox Spirit, I'll be looking for you every night."

She heard hurried footsteps behind her, and in the blink of an eye, Hu Jiu was already standing in front of her.

"Wanwan..."

Judging from his tone, his little fox was feeling extremely guilty.

She smiled and shook her head, cupping his face in her hands as she looked at him again and again.

In the firelight, after the ointment was wiped clean, the originally uneven scar on his chin became smooth.

It just looks much lighter in color than normal skin, so it should be newly formed skin.

The spring water really works!

She glanced at Zhu You, then pointed to Hu Jiu's chin and gave him a thumbs up.

Although they didn't understand the gestures, the two of them could tell that the little female was happy that Fox Jiu's wounds were healing.

Fox Jiu held her hand and gently rubbed it against his cheek, "Wanwan, thank you..."

Since his disfigurement, he has never seen the sunrise or sunset again.

He thought that he would be trapped in a dark cave forever, and that his fate would be to perish together with the female who caused all of this.

But from then on, she would come here every night, teach them how to cook delicious food, and thank them.

With her encouragement, he learned to emerge from the darkness, and now she is going to heal the wounds on his face.

The thought that such a wonderful little female was his mistress filled him with immense gratitude to the progenitor for bringing her to his side.

Xu Wan touched his face, then looked back. Where was Chen Shuang?

"Chen Shuang stayed in the back mountain. He said he wanted to absorb beast crystals to advance to the fourth rank."

She nodded, wrapped her arms around Zhu You's neck, found a comfortable spot in his embrace, and closed her eyes again.

[The system, the system?]

[Host! Help me!]

Her consciousness entered the system space, but after looking around, she couldn't find the system anywhere.

Hearing a noise in the corner, she crouched down and peered over the edge.

The light sphere, which is the main body of the system, was mostly contained by a small blue flower in the corner.

Hmm? When did a... edible flower appear here?

She reached out, trying to rescue the system.

I thought it would bite me, but as soon as my fingertip touched the petal, it trembled twice and spat out the ball of light.

The ball of light rolled twice on the ground, emitting a few crackling sounds like coughing electrical noises.

Xu Wan silently moved two steps away to the side, then reached out and poked the little thing that had suddenly sprouted.

"Tongzi, what's this? You've started planting flowers now?"

[I don't know... I just went to the main system to submit a report, and when I came back, it swallowed it up.]

The light sphere, with its automatic drying function activated, moved closer to her.

[Host, what did you just do? You've exhausted all your mental energy.]

"I helped Hu Jiu apply the Spirit Spring water."

She poked at the flower, which was less than ten centimeters tall, and muttered to herself, "How did it appear?"

A pale blue flower suddenly brushed against her finger a few times, and she, who had no resistance to cute things, instantly melted her heart.

"So cute! Tongzi, come and see!"

No way!

Xu Wan ignored him and played with the little blue flower for a while.

She always tilted her fingertips in the direction they pointed, as if playing a chasing game with her.

"I always felt like she was very close to me."

Hearing her say that, the system orb also came closer.

[Host, I'll go scan and see if I can analyze it.]

She nodded, but as soon as she turned around, she heard the orb of light calling for help again.

[Host! Host!]

Seeing the system in such an embarrassed state was rare for Xu Wan, who laughed so hard she couldn't stand up straight.

Despite her playful antics, she still reached out and poked the little blue flower.

"The system is very important to me, so please give it back, okay?"

Hearing her say that, the little blue flower shook up and down and spat out the ball of light it had just swallowed.

"Tongzi, it seems to really like you. You two should get along well~"

[Host, this isn't funny.]

Looking at the serious-looking system, she didn't say anything, but silently set a goal for the system in her heart.

Hmm... Suddenly I'm really looking forward to seeing the system's "it's actually pretty good" moment.

The system knew from the ambiguous smile on her face as she touched her chin that she wasn't up to any good.

[Host, you can go back now if you have nothing else to do.]

"I have something to do, of course I have something to do."

She rubbed her hands together. "Good system, it's been a while since we opened any treasure chests."

Six dots silently appeared above the system's header.

He listened to her inner thoughts: If she doesn't refuse, there's a chance; if there's a chance, she'll agree!

Just as I was about to refuse, she smiled and spoke.

"Chief, the items that restore mental energy are too expensive in the shop. Can you give me a backdoor?"

She held up ten with her hand. "I don't need much, just this many. You can do it, right?"

...He clearly wanted five, he was being greedy.

【Four. 】

"eight!"

【six.】

"make a deal!"

Looking at Xu Wan, whose eyes were crinkled with laughter, the system felt that something else besides its central processing unit was getting hot.

...It must be that it forgot to turn off the automatic drying program!

[This powerful tonic can restore all mental energy within half an hour.]

He resumed his businesslike tone and, after speaking, expelled the person from the system space.

"Hey, I haven't pressed turn on yet..."

Before she could finish speaking, Xu Wan regained consciousness and immediately checked her system inventory.

Fortunately, all six tonic pills were taken.

Fox Jiu was holding her as she slept soundly.

Since no one was watching, she took one, put it in her mouth, chewed it twice, and swallowed it whole.

What is this? Is the raw material the bitterness of life?

[Host, good medicine tastes bitter, don't bite me...*#……]

Tsk, how come I didn't notice before? The system is the kind that says one thing but means another?

She said she wanted to stay far away from the little blue flower, but she had only just left when she went back to it.

However, the saying "good medicine tastes bitter" is certainly true.

The tonic pill melted in his mouth, and his previously depleted mental energy gradually became abundant again.

Not only that, she even felt that her mental energy had recovered more than before.

[Master, could this powerful tonic also increase mental strength?]

Well, no response. I guess he's been bothered by the little blue flower again.

She looked up at the cave ceiling.

This pill is perfect for someone like me who gets angry and stands up, then suddenly collapses and sits back down!

The system's resentful voice rang out.

[Host, you're weak; you need a proper diet and consistent exercise...]

Before she could refute it, it continued.

[Host, the little blue flower in the space has grown larger. I suspect... it's related to your mental power.]

Mental power? Little blue flower?

Is she going to become a gardener, and then send Little Blue Flower out to bite the enemy when they encounter danger?
