Chapter 91 - Confusion
“Woo… Master, Qiuqiu is very useful. Qiuqiu’s leaves not only allow people to sense mystic energy and increase their mystic energy, but when normal people eat it, they can also strengthen their body and health and prolong their life. Woowoo, also, also, Qiuqiu can blossom and produce fruits later. If Master eats the divine fruit, your cultivation can raise at least two levels!”
Sensing the distaste from its master, the sapling was weeping with its tree body shaking back and forth in conjunction, looking incredibly pitiful.
Qiao Mu was rendered speechless. She looked at the barren sapling and asked, “Where are your leaves then?”
“My leaves had all been picked away by Master to feed two foodies, woowoowoo.” As it said this, Qiuqiu felt extremely saddened. This heartless master—as soon as she saw that its leaves were grown, she would leaf-nap it all away…
Qiao Mu’s lips twitched, and seeing how pitifully it cried, she could not resist saying, “I definitely didn’t pluck it. Even if it was me who plucked the leaves, I wouldn’t have plucked it all. I would have at least left you two leaves to keep your modesty.”
“Although the cold-blooded action that you described does sound like something I would do, I know full well that I did not do it!” Qiao Mu scoffed.
“It was you, it was you, it was you! Master, don’t be so stubborn! Whether you plucked it or not, who would know better than me?”
“Also, who is a foodie?” Qiao Mu irritably glanced at the sapling. “Scram, how am I a foodie?” Qiao Mu, who evidently did not hear what the sapling said clearly, thought that the sapling was insulting her.
“Although my inner world has a lot of meat buns buried, I haven’t eaten a single one yet! How am I a foodie? I absolutely won’t admit it!”
“Alright, stay here quietly. I have business.” Qiao Mu was too lazy to continue jabbering with the sapling. She would ask about the matter of the mystic domain next time. Right now, she was in a rush to find a doctor.
“Master… why are you looking for a doctor? You can treat him yourself! Also, how could those bumpkin doctors be capable of treating this lad’s internal injuries.”
Although this cheeky sapling said it like it was true, Qiao Mu was well aware that she did not learn any medicine, whether it was in the previous life or this life! Treat, treat, treat! Treat your ass!
“Master, how about I try and see if I can extract a healing pill from the Star Domain. It was a supreme-grade pill produced by your godly doctor, Venerable Master! It can guarantee a cure for all illnesses!” Who would need to find some village doctor!
Lunatic! Qiao Mu could not resist rolling her eyes. Why didn’t she remember that she had acknowledged a godly doctor as her master? She did not want to speak with this sapling filled with crazy drivel any longer.
“Master, wait.” Seeing that its master obviously did not believe it, the sapling filled with urgency. Its entire body chaotically shook all over, as though it was spasming.
“I shake, I shake, I shake shake shake…”
The sapling madly shook its branches like it was wildly dancing. If it could take on a human form, it would probably have tears streaking down its face at this point.
So difficult! Merely extracting a healing pill consumed such a large amount of strength, how painful and pitiful it was. When did it ever require so much effort before?
Qiao Mu’s patience was just about to be completely exhausted when she saw a blinding gold light appear above the sapling, dispersing in a flash.
A round scarlet red pill hopped down its tree trunk. Qiao Mu was somewhat dumbfounded and subconsciously reached out to catch the pill.
“Little Master, I’m very tired.” The sapling’s voice was noticeably weaker, and it did not have its previous excitable tone either. “I… I need to rest a bit. I-I won’t be able to see Master in the following days. A-also, don’t steal the paradise star. I-I need it to recover…”
The sapling’s voice disappeared, and Qiao Mu looked inside restlessly. The sapling was drooping down its barren tree branches in exhaustion, the bright green light that was encased on its body also dimmed a lot.
Qiao Mu turned her eyes away and looked down at the pill—which had a faint medicinal fragrance wafting from it—in her hand with confusion brimming from her eyes.
