After an unknown period of unconsciousness, Lumine slowly awoke on a nest made of dry grass.
Upon waking, she instinctively clutched her chest and quickly tidied her disheveled clothes.
"What was that just now? Was it me?"
Lumine looked at her hands with a mix of surprise and uncertainty.
In fact, she and Paimon had only seen the effects of Yun Xu using the One Head Two Arms Pill so far, and had never seen him take the Three Heads Eight Arms Pill.
After all, by the time they arrived at the Golden House last time, Yun Xu had already transformed into three forms, each with one head and two arms.
"Did I take the wrong pill, but just now…"
Sitting in the dry grass nest, Lumine unconsciously lowered her hands and pressed them onto her skirt.
"Yingying, are you there! That's strange, wasn't I supposed to have put it around here? Where is it?"
Just then, Lumine suddenly heard Yun Xu's voice calling from outside.
She immediately scrambled to her feet, patting her clothes to ensure everything was in order.
She was too ashamed to mention what had just happened to anyone.
"Good boy, Lime, have you seen a golden-haired human? What, you carried her back to your nest? Good, good, well done, it's not good to leave her on the grass."
Lumine looked out of Lime's nest and saw the purple dragon-like creature that had brought her the pill bottle earlier, now happily accepting head pats from Yun Xu like a dog.
"Oh, Yingying, you're awake. You were ambushed and knocked out by Beisht just now, and seeing the urgency of the situation, I brought you into the Serenitea Pot's exterior space first."
It was then that Yun Xu reacted as if he had just noticed Lumine, immediately getting up to explain to her.
Lumine herself had a Serenitea Pot, so she could roughly guess that this was an exterior space similar to the inside of a Serenitea Pot.
"Is that so… Thank you."
Lumine hesitated for a moment before thanking Yun Xu.
"It's nothing, and you don't have to worry, Beisht has already been dealt with."
"By the way, you must be injured, right? Lime, go get the Sweet Sweet Pill from my table. Make sure you don't get the wrong one."
Yun Xu then patted Lime's head and instructed him.
Lime tilted his head but still bounced towards where Yun Xu kept the pills.
His lively way of moving couldn't help but attract Lumine's attention.
"He only recognizes colors, so he always gets the wrong pill. Yingying, you sit down and rest first. When he brings it, I'll check if it's the right one."
Yun Xu explained again at this point, then helped Lumine, wanting her to sit back down and rest.
Although the dry grass nest belonged to Lime, he was now a noble dragon and very clean, so there was nothing wrong with a human staying in this nest.
"Mhm…"
Seeing Yun Xu's completely oblivious expression, Lumine gave up the idea of mentioning the embarrassing situation from earlier.
Anyway, it was herself… *Clatter*—
Just as Yun Xu helped Lumine sit back down and withdrew his hands, a pill bottle accidentally slipped out of Yun Xu's sleeve and fell onto the grass.
This pill bottle was identical to the one Lumine had just taken.
"…"
"I said it was a misunderstanding, Yingying, do you believe me?"
Carefully hooking the pill bottle back to his side with his foot, Yun Xu looked at Lumine with an innocent expression.
"…Who are you calling Yingying?!"
Lumine glared fiercely at Yun Xu, then remembered to look back into Lime's nest, and sure enough, she didn't see the pill bottle she had taken.
This meant that the bottle on Yun Xu and the one she had just taken were the same.
Regardless of whether Lime, who brought the pill, did it on purpose, the fact that Yun Xu retrieved the pill proved that he must have seen her after she had knocked herself out!
Thinking of this, a blush appeared on Lumine's face, whether from shame or anger.
"You stop right there! Let me destroy that damned pill!"
"No! It took me so much effort to refine it!"
By the time Lime returned with a new pill bottle in his mouth, Yun Xu was already being chased all over the place by Lumine, who was wielding the dull blade.
"And I didn't see anything! My master taught me, 'See no evil'!"
"Besides, the pill is innocent! That was all your own doing. Look how obedient my two heads were last time!"
Yun Xu desperately clutched his Three Heads Eight Arms Pill, defending it.
Although they had only spent a short time together, Yun Xu knew that Yun Zuo Xu and Yun You Xu were good children.
They worked very hard when fighting Young Master.
In the end, Yun Xu was caught by Lumine, who gave him a hard punch.
Divine Power: Extinguisher of All Sufferings.
The moment he was hit, Yun Xu performed Spirit Invocation and unleashed the Vanquisher of Evil's divine power.
The effect of this divine power was simple: it greatly increased DEF.
So, after a punch landed squarely on Yun Xu's chest, Yun Xu showed no reaction at all.
"Yingying, your punches are like pouting. I knew you couldn't bear to hit me…"
Yun Xu cupped the small fist resting on his chest with both hands and rubbed it against his face.
"?!"
"Who are you calling Yingying?!"
The Traveler's face flushed red as she hurriedly pulled her hand back, then angrily corrected him, rolling up her sleeves, ready to teach Yun Xu a lesson.
Although Yun Xu's DEF was extremely high in his divine power state, and Lumine couldn't hurt him, she had other methods.
"Phew… I wonder if a little fox like you is ticklish?"
In the end, Yun Xu was still thoroughly taught a lesson.
After Lumine had let out her anger, Lime cautiously approached, placing the pill he was holding in his mouth on the grass in front of Lumine.
Yun Xu had just told him to get it, and he had been waiting by the side ever since he brought it back.
"What kind of pill is this?"
Lumine glanced at the pill bottle Lime had brought. Although it looked very much like a Sweet Sweet Pill, after the previous incident, she didn't dare to confirm it directly. She could only pick it up and ask Yun Xu, who was lying on the ground panting.
"…"
Yun Xu rested for a while, then slightly turned his head to look.
"Sweet Sweet Pill… you can actually tell by the smell…"
Yun Xu replied weakly.
Sweet Sweet Pill has a distinct sweet flower scent.
Hearing Yun Xu's explanation, Lumine opened the bottle and sniffed, indeed smelling the sweet flower scent.
She then looked at Yun Xu, who was lying on the ground with a look of utter despair, and cautiously poured out three Sweet Sweet Pills from the bottle, secretly putting them away.
"Oh, here, take it back. I don't want your pills."
After secretly putting away the three Sweet Sweet Pills, Lumine returned the pill to Yun Xu.
Yun Xu then regained a little strength, picked up the pill Lumine had placed on his stomach, and sat up from the grass.
"Alright, let's go out quickly. Paimon must be worried about me."
Seeing Yun Xu sit up from the ground, Lumine urged him, and at the same time, reached out and patted the dragon's head that had come closer.
Lime, who had been patted, weakly shrank back, blinking his eyes and looking at Lumine somewhat aggrieved.
However, Lumine still remembered that it was he who had gotten the wrong pill, which led to her being… "Alright, let's go out."
Yun Xu nodded, then handed the pill bottle to Lime, telling him to put it back in its original place.
Since transforming into a dragon, Lime had become much smarter than before and could understand most of Yun Xu's commands…
