"That…" Yang Tian opened his mouth, but before he could finish, Huo Wu, her eyes red, interjected, "Get out!"
"Uh, you, you misunderstood…" Yang Tian felt guilty. In truth, he genuinely wanted to help Huo Wu improve her talent. After several days of training, Huo Wu's body had reached its maximum capacity. If Yang Tian didn't boost her talent and enhance her potential soon, Huo Wu would have to pause her training and rest for a period.
However, Huo Wu wouldn't listen to his explanation. Her beautiful eyes fixed on Yang Tian, she said coldly, "Get out, get out!"
Huo Wu finally lost her temper. Yang Tian, feeling guilty, didn't retort. He just stood there, enduring Huo Wu's scolding.
"What, can't you hold back anymore? I knew you were a scumbag! Inviting me to join the Immortal Sword Battle Team was just to covet my body, wasn't it?"
"Hmph, I've seen your true nature. A complete scumbag, a beast who thinks with his lower body… Why aren't you speaking! What's wrong, aren't you explaining? Aren't you defending yourself? Why have you stopped talking?"
"..."
The more Huo Wu spoke, the faster she got. The pent-up frustration from over ten days of being tormented by Yang Tian was finally released today.
Finally, Huo Wu snorted, turned her face away, and said nothing more.
Yang Tian breathed a sigh of relief. Goodness, this woman…
"Are you over it?" Yang Tian asked tentatively.
Huo Wu glared at Yang Tian again upon hearing him, but she didn't scold him further. Instead, she stared at Yang Tian and said, "I'll give you a chance to explain. If you don't give me a satisfactory explanation, I'm leaving the Immortal Sword Battle Team today!"
Yang Tian nodded at her words, wanting to sit on the bed, but he forcefully restrained himself and said, "Don't even think about leaving the Immortal Sword Battle Team. Since I've seen it, I have to take responsibility, right? Otherwise, wouldn't I be committing another taboo of a scumbag?"
"You!" Huo Wu opened her mouth, but seeing Yang Tian's serious expression, she waited for him to continue.
"Uh… actually, today I wanted to help you improve your physique. Your body's load from training these past few days has been too heavy, reaching its limit. If you continue training like this, your body won't be able to handle it and will develop hidden ailments."
"No need, I don't want your stuff. Who knows how you'll want me to repay you." Huo Wu was very stubborn. Yang Tian rubbed his forehead. He should have known better than to tease her when he had the chance two days ago. Wasn't this just asking for trouble?
However, looking at Huo Wu now, her anger seemed to have mostly subsided.
"Originally, it was going to be a physical repayment…"
"What did you say?"
"But about today's matter…"
"How dare you say that! Let you speak…" Huo Wu grabbed a pillow nearby and threw it at Yang Tian.
Yang Tian took the hit, then pointed at Huo Wu's chest and said, "That…"
"Ah~" Another shriek. Yang Tian frowned, covering his ears. He should have pretended not to see it.
However, Huo Wu's assets were truly abundant, not much inferior to Lin Zhiling's. She was only sixteen, how did she grow like that…
Thoughts aside, the purpose of coming today still needed to be accomplished.
"You, what are you still doing here?" Huo Wu glared at Yang Tian angrily, pulling the quilt with both hands to cover her ample bosom, leaving only her fair, snow-white shoulders exposed.
Yang Tian rubbed his nose and said, "I need to improve your physique and talent. Do you want to always lag behind Bing'er and the others? Or even have the gap widen the more you chase?"
Huo Wu's cheeks puffed up at his words. "Then, then you have to let me put on my clothes… You go out first."
Yang Tian chuckled. Seeing that he had finally explained clearly, he leaned against the wall and said, "Anyway, I've already seen it…"
"Get out!" Huo Wu threw another pillow, simultaneously pulling the quilt, afraid that Yang Tian would see her again.
Yang Tian turned with a mischievous smile, walked out of the bedroom, and said, "You only have half a minute. I'll come in after half a minute."
"You wouldn't dare!" Huo Wu threatened verbally, while quickly putting on her clothes, afraid that the scoundrel would turn back.
Half a minute later, Yang Tian decisively turned back. It was already this late; if he didn't strike while the iron was hot, it would truly cool down.
In the bedroom, Huo Wu hastily put on her undergarments and pajamas, but Yang Tian still caught a glimpse of the scenery, snow-white and beautiful.
"Swordsman, I'm going to kill you!" Huo Wu clenched her fists and swung them at him, but Yang Tian opened his arms. "I'm already prepared. Don't blame me if you deliver yourself to my doorstep…"
Huo Wu glared at Yang Tian, but ultimately chose to back down. Hit him? That would just be giving him an advantage.
The soft jade didn't fall into his embrace, and Yang Tian felt a slight disappointment. But he still walked to the bedside and said, "Sit down, cross-legged."
Huo Wu didn't understand why, but she knew Yang Tian wouldn't do anything out of line to her. She immediately sat cross-legged and said, "It's agreed, no repayment."
"No repayment, then no repayment. Anyway, you can't escape. You'll be mine sooner or later." Yang Tian said, then raised his hand, and a fiery red Immortal Herb appeared.
The sky yang blaze flower's leaves had mostly been eaten by Xiao Cai, but the gelatinous fruit condensed at its core was still untouched.
Yang Tian scooped out more than half of the reddish-gelatinous fruit from the flower bud, then took out the palm heaven bottle and dripped two drops of essence onto the sky yang blaze flower.
"Such a scorching aura." It was just a withered flower, yet it could emit such an intense heat. Huo Wu's beautiful eyes stared at the sky yang blaze flower in Yang Tian's hand. Her intuition told her that this item could bring about a qualitative change in her.
"This thing is called the Blazing Body Flower. Although it's an Immortal Herb, its side effects are very obvious. You can tell by the name." Yang Tian handed the fiery gel lying in his palm to Huo Wu, a playful smile on his face.
Huo Wu's expression changed upon hearing him, and she immediately said angrily, "I knew you had no good intentions!"
"Then are you going to eat it or not?" Yang Tian mischievously placed the fiery gel in his palm in front of Huo Wu. "You win some, you lose some."
Huo Wu looked at the fiery gel, which resembled a red ruby, and fell silent. Yang Tian secretly chuckled, quietly waiting for Huo Wu to make her choice.
A moment later, Huo Wu pushed Yang Tian's hand away. "No need!"
Yang Tian smiled bitterly, feeling a little disappointed. "It seems my charm isn't enough. I was just teasing you. This flower is called the sky yang blaze flower, and its fiery gel contains the ultimate fire power of heaven and earth.
Your Spirit is a shadow, and its attribute is fire. After consuming it, it will at least evolve your attribute power to its extreme."
Placing the fiery gel in Huo Wu's palm, Yang Tian stepped back two paces and said, "After you take it, just focus on refining it. I'll watch over you here, and if anything unexpected happens, I'll intervene."
Huo Wu looked at Yang Tian, still hesitant to refine the fiery gel. After all, Yang Tian truly had no good impression in her mind. What if this fiery gel really did have side effects…
Huo Wu quietly stared at the fiery gel in her palm, and then… then with a whoosh, a colorful shadow flashed past her, and along with its disappearance, several pieces of fiery gel from her palm were also gone.
Huo Wu's heart panicked. That was the hope for her Spirit's evolution, just gone like that? She looked up at Yang Tian and saw that he was holding a colorful little snake in his palm. The little snake was chewing something in its mouth, then gulped…
"That, that was mine…" Huo Wu cried out in grievance. She had finally prepared herself to let Yang Tian have his way and intended to refine the fiery gel, but then Xiao Cai snatched it away.
