Chapter 215: Could it be that he can't do it?
Shui Yue'er dodged left and right, trying to avoid the hand Bai Yu was holding the Ice Silkworm with.
"No! I really don't want this gift, Bai Yu, I don't want to eat it... *gulp*!"
Shui Yue'er's experience was still not rich enough; she actually spoke when she didn't want to eat anything.
Taking advantage of her speaking, Bai Yu flicked his finger, sending the Ice Silkworm into Shui Yue'er's mouth, and then tapped her neck, making her swallow it directly.
"Hehe, I told you, that's not a bug, it's an Immortal Herb, and since you've already eaten it, don't just stand there, hurry up and refine it."
Bai Yu released the arm that was holding Shui Yue'er, then pointed to the wooden bed, signaling her to quickly go and refine the Immortal Herb.
At this moment, Shui Yue'er was teary-eyed, staring at Bai Yu with a look of resentment, and just as her lips moved slightly, intending to say something, her expression suddenly changed, and she immediately sat cross-legged on the bed, circulating her spirit power.
Looking at Shui Yue'er who was refining the Ice Silkworm, Bai Yu chuckled, thinking to himself, 'Little girl, trying to fight me, you're still too green.'
Just now, when Bai Yu flicked the Ice Silkworm into Shui Yue'er's mouth, he also included a bit of spirit power. It had no other purpose than to make the medicinal power of the Immortal Herb erupt quickly.
The reason for doing this was that Bai Yu didn't want to hear Shui Yue'er complain, so he directly solved the problem fundamentally, leaving Shui Yue'er no time to complain.
Afterward, Bai Yu got up, brewed a pot of tea, prepared a plate of dried fruits, and sat on a chair, leisurely waiting.
More than two hours later, as a powerful spirit power fluctuation erupted from Shui Yue'er's body, the absorption of the Immortal Herb was finally completed.
"Here, take this. Activate it with spirit power, and then just like you normally absorb a spirit ring, guide it with spirit power."
When Bai Yu saw Shui Yue'er open her eyes, he didn't wait for her to speak, but directly took out a Soul Convergence Seal suitable for her and threw it over.
Shui Yue'er looked at the Soul Convergence Seal in her hand, her eyes somewhat confused. What was this thing again?
"Is this also a gift? There won't be bugs in it, will there?"
Bai Yu's mouth twitched, and he said somewhat speechlessly:
"Where are there so many bugs? This is a spirit ring. After your spirit power has increased, you're already stuck at level 40. This is for you to break through."
"Ah?"
Shui Yue'er flipped the thick iron plate in her hand back and forth, her face full of suspicion. A spirit ring? How did this look like a spirit ring?
"Stop playing, just inject spirit power, and the spirit ring will naturally appear."
"Oh."
Although Shui Yue'er couldn't see what this thing had to do with a spirit ring, she still obediently injected spirit power.
"Eh? There really is a spirit ring? Bai Yu, did you see it? This iron plate actually produced a spirit ring!"
Shui Yue'er looked at the purple spirit ring in front of her and jumped up in surprise.
Bai Yu couldn't help but laugh. This Shui Yue'er was really interesting. What did she mean by 'the iron plate produced a spirit ring'?
"Haha, that's a spirit tool, called a Soul Convergence Seal, not some iron plate. Alright, hurry up and absorb it. Just absorb it the way you absorbed spirit rings before."
Hearing Bai Yu's words, Shui Yue'er blinked her eyes and began to guide the spirit ring with her spirit power, placing it on her Spirit, and closed her eyes to absorb it.
Another hour passed, and the spirit ring, which had been pulsating back and forth on Shui Yue'er's Spirit, finally stabilized completely, and the absorption was finished.
"How amazing! This spirit ring actually works, and my spirit power seems to have reached level 43?"
Shui Yue'er felt her own state and said to Bai Yu, somewhat at a loss.
Bai Yu nodded, indicating that her feeling was correct, and at the same time sighed inwardly, 'This girl, like Zhuqing, is inherently weaker!'
"Yes, it's level 43, but your foundation was a bit weak. Half of the medicinal power of this Immortal Herb was used to compensate for your aptitude."
"From now on, your cultivation speed won't be much worse than those with innate full spirit power, so you really need to work harder, don't be a slacker like before."
Shui Yue'er's face flushed. Being called a slacker made her feel a bit annoyed.
"No way, I also cultivated very diligently before, but my talent was just like that, I couldn't help it!"
Bai Yu smiled. He didn't expose Shui Yue'er's stubbornness, but instead stood up and said:
"Let's go. It's getting late now. I'll take you to dinner, and then send you back."
Shui Yue'er grumbled twice, reluctantly following behind Bai Yu.
To be honest, she didn't want to go back, and they had already confirmed their relationship. Staying by Bai Yu's side was what she hoped for.
But she couldn't not go back. Their Tianshui Team had a competition tomorrow, and if she stayed with Bai Yu, she wouldn't be able to participate in tomorrow's competition.
At this moment, she suddenly thought, how great it would be if the Tianshui Team had already lost, then she could justifiably stay with Bai Yu.
Bai Yu, at this time, was still unaware of Shui Yue'er's troubling thoughts. After he took Shui Yue'er to dinner, he sent her back to the Tianshui Team's resting area.
"Yue'er, you're back? How was it? Did the Spirit Hall Saint Child do anything to you?"
"But, you don't seem to have changed much. Could it be that he can't do it?"
After Shui Yue'er returned, as soon as she entered the room, she saw everyone from the Tianshui Team gathered there, not a single one missing.
But before she could even ask, Xue Wu directly ran over, examining her up and down with curiosity, wanting to see if she had changed at all.
Shui Yue'er's face flushed, and she reached out and pinched Xue Wu.
"Sister Xue Wu, what are you saying? Bai Yu just gave me some gifts, he didn't do anything to me."
Hearing Shui Yue'er mention gifts, a sharp gleam flashed in Shui Ling Shuang's eyes. She lightly tapped the table twice and said:
"Yue'er, what gifts did Bai Yu give you? I see a clear spirit power fluctuation on your body, as if you just broke through. So, was that gift something to increase spirit power?"
As soon as Shui Ling Shuang finished speaking, Shui Yue'er's face immediately became resentful, her expression extremely wronged.
"Aunt Shui Ling Shuang, please don't mention it! That Bai Yu actually fed me bugs under the guise of giving me gifts!"
"However, he said that thing wasn't a bug, but an Immortal Herb, called an Immortal Grade Ice Silkworm. After I ate it, my spirit power indeed increased."
Then Shui Yue'er chattered non-stop, spilling all the things Bai Yu had done to her.
"What? Yue'er, your spirit power is already level 43? How is this possible? Stand still there, let me see!"
Hearing Shui Yue'er's description, Shui Ling Shuang's eyes widened, feeling completely unsettled. Increasing so much spirit power all at once, could it be that her body was overdrawn?
Immediately, Shui Ling Shuang grabbed Shui Yue'er's arm and carefully began to investigate.
