The next day!
Because Zi Yan had not left her room for a long time, the girls noticed something was amiss and asked Qi Lin what had happened.
Of course, they didn't think Zi Yan would have any accidents, as Qi Lin was there.
Qi Lin immediately told the girls about Zi Yan turning into a cocoon, explaining with a relaxed smile.
"Zi Yan must have eaten the pill I gave her last night and couldn't digest the energy contained within it all at once, which is why she turned into this state."
"Don't worry, she'll recover in a day or two at most."
Sure enough, on the morning of the second day after Zi Yan turned into a cocoon, her proud and triumphant laughter came from the bedroom she was staying in.
"Hahahahaha, I've finally grown up, I've finally grown up!"
As her voice fell, a beautiful figure immediately rushed out of the bedroom, her exquisite face showing a joyful smile.
This beautiful figure was, of course, Zi Yan!
Zi Yan was still wearing the white robe she had on before, but previously, when she wore this white robe, it looked very big on her.
But now, the white robe looked like it had shrunk a size.
Besides her physique, Zi Yan's appearance had also changed somewhat; her purple hair was loose, looking two points more mature than before.
If Zi Yan looked like an eleven or twelve-year-old girl before, she now looked like a thirteen or fourteen-year-old maiden.
The girls were all surprised and amazed when they first saw Zi Yan's new appearance.
"Zi Yan, you really grew up!" Huo Wu said casually.
"Yes, and she's even prettier!"
"Exactly, exactly, I think Zi Yan will be even prettier than us older sisters in the future."
"Exactly, exactly!"
The girls chattered, one after another, and even walked forward, reaching out to pinch Zi Yan's fair and rosy cheeks.
Xue Ling said with a giggle, "Zi Yan, your cheeks are so soft, they feel like marshmallows."
Qi Lin also walked over with a smile and said, "Zi Yan, how do you feel now?"
When Zi Yan heard Qi Lin's words, her eyes immediately lit up, and she excitedly waved her small fists, saying, "Brother Qi Lin, thank you for the pill you gave me. Now I feel better than ever before. Not only have I grown up, but my strength has also greatly increased."
After speaking, a hint of longing flashed in Zi Yan's eyes.
If only she could keep eating that kind of pill.
After all, she had grown so much after just one pill; if she ate a few more, wouldn't she be able to grow up to be just like her sisters?
Just as Zi Yan was fantasizing, the girls pushed her into a room, all looking at her with smiling eyes.
"Such a beautiful girl, wouldn't it be a waste of this face if she wasn't dressed up?"
With that, the girls began to help her get ready.
From top to bottom, inside and out, she was completely transformed.
The originally simple white robe was replaced with a beautiful long dress with a purple base and gold embroidery.
Before long, when Zi Yan walked out of the room, she looked like a little princess.
Qi Lin, who was personally cooking, took a moment to look at the scene of the girls surrounding Zi Yan and smiled slightly.
"Dinner is served!"
Soon after, Qi Lin called out with a smile, placing plates of spirit cuisine on a round table.
These spirit cuisines appeared hazy with golden mist and fragrant, looking entirely unlike food that belonged in the mortal world.
Although the art of spirit cuisine was Xiao Wu's original creation, Qi Lin also knew a bit about it.
After Xiao Wu left, Qi Lin occasionally cooked himself, so he began to comprehend it.
Under the effect of sudden enlightenment, Qi Lin's path of spirit cuisine once again surpassed Xiao Wu's, leaving her behind.
The girls picked up some spirit cuisine and tasted a bit, and expressions of satisfaction appeared on their beautiful faces, like a hundred flowers vying for beauty.
Huo Wu sighed, "A Lin, your spirit cuisine is even better than Xiao Wu's, even though she's the one who invented it."
All the girls except Gu Xun'er and Zi Yan knew about this and had tasted Xiao Wu's spirit cuisine, so they were full of praise for the spirit cuisine Qi Lin made.
As for Gu Xun'er and Zi Yan, it was their first time eating spirit cuisine, and they were even more shocked.
They had never tasted such delicious food before.
Gu Xun'er, as the eldest young lady of the Gu Clan, maintained her ladylike image even though the spirit cuisine in front of her was delicious, eating slowly and meticulously.
But Zi Yan didn't care for such formalities. After swallowing a few mouthfuls of saliva, she picked up her chopsticks and swept across the table like a whirlwind, eating ravenously.
Even when the girls urged her to slow down, not to rush, and that no one would snatch her food, she still showed no intention of stopping her actions.
After a while, Zi Yan, still chewing with her bowl full of food, finally slowed down and looked at everyone.
The girls couldn't help but laugh at her appearance, with her cheeks puffed out like a little hamster.
Gu Yuena, sitting next to her, gently reached out and wiped a grain of rice from the corner of her mouth, her eyes filled with a doting smile as she said, "Eat slowly, don't choke."
Upon hearing Gu Yuena's words, Zi Yan finally nodded and slowed down.
On the other side, during their casual chat, Little Fairy Doctor suddenly asked, "A Lin, I heard Elder Su Qian say that Zi Yan's true form is a magical beast and that she transformed into a human by mistakenly consuming a transformation grass. Can you tell what Zi Yan's true form is?"
Upon hearing this, everyone spoke up.
"Yes, Brother Qi Lin, can you tell what Zi Yan's true form is?"
"If we can figure out Zi Yan's true form, maybe we can help her find her clan."
When Zi Yan heard the girls' words, after swallowing the food in her mouth, she also looked at Qi Lin.
Her gaze held a subtle hint of excitement and longing.
Although she was abandoned by her father in her youth, causing her to be bullied by other magical beasts in the mountains since childhood, deep down, Zi Yan still longed for family affection, and she also wanted to question her father about why he abandoned her.
Qi Lin glanced at Zi Yan, then said, "If I'm not mistaken, Zi Yan's true form should be the Void Ancient Dragon, a famous creature on the Dou Qi Continent!"
"Void Ancient Dragon!"
As a native of the Dou Qi Continent, Gu Xun'er naturally knew very well the significance of the Void Ancient Dragon Clan.
The Void Ancient Dragon is the head of the three great magical beast clans on the Dou Qi Continent, incredibly powerful, and born with extremely strong spatial abilities, capable of traversing the void.
In ancient times, the Void Ancient Dragon Clan even rivaled the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix, neither giving way to the other.
One must know that the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Clan is the ancestor of the current Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.
From this, one can see what kind of heritage the Void Ancient Dragon Clan possesses.
Although the Void Ancient Dragon Clan has become increasingly low-key in recent years, no force dares to underestimate it.
Because no one knows which ancient powerhouses of the Void Ancient Dragon still exist.
After all, magical beasts inherently have long lifespans, not to mention that the Void Ancient Dragon Clan is the overlord among magical beasts.
Gu Xun'er couldn't help but look at Zi Yan in surprise.
She never expected, truly never expected, that this girl would be the legendary Void Ancient Dragon!
