Mind Reader? I'd Rather Quit Being Senior Brother!
Chapter 26 – Is it my illusion?
What does a First-Grade Elixir taste like?
Xiao Lin didn't know before.
But now he does.
It's a taste that makes you want to retch.
It's hard to describe, but if you had to, you could compare it to the smell of a beautiful girl's socks after being worn in boots for a week, then stuffed into a trash can for a few days, and finally heated in a microwave with vomit.
What? Why use a beautiful girl's socks as an example? Well, isn't it because someone likes it... I'm not saying who.
In any case, Xiao Lin almost threw up. If Leng Youxue hadn't used her spiritual energy to seal his mouth, he might have spat out the elixir that would cause a bloody storm if it were outside.
But to be fair, although the taste was terrible, the effect was truly remarkable. The elixir almost instantly transformed into spiritual energy mixed with medicinal power, coursing through Xiao Lin's body.
According to Xiao Lin's expectations, this should have been an extremely pleasant process, making him feel like a spring breeze, wrapped in warmth.
However, was that really the case?
Of course not.
Instead...
"Hahahahahahaha..."
Xiao Lin suddenly burst into laughter, as if he remembered the funniest joke ever.
This scene left everyone present stunned.
Why was Senior Brother/Xiao Lin laughing?
Sensing this scene, the peak masters under the invisible pressure of the Tribulation Lightning all thought of one person—Dan Qiusheng, the current sect leader of Pill Peak.
As a sect that primarily focuses on alchemy with cultivation as a secondary practice, the elixirs produced by Pill Peak have always been recognized as high-quality in the cultivation world.
And now, the elixirs refined by Dan Qiusheng have become the nobility of the elixir world—take the Blood Circulation Pill for example, while others' pills can only treat simple internal injuries with mediocre effects, Dan Qiusheng's can heal non-life-threatening internal injuries within a quarter of an hour.
The key point is that Dan Qiusheng's elixirs sometimes come with miraculous effects—it's said that a paralyzed cultivator once suffered severe injuries in a battle with the demon race, and after taking a First-Grade Immortal Spring Rejuvenation Pill refined by Dan Qiusheng, not only did his injuries heal, but he also regained mobility in his lower body and stood up shortly after!
Of course, the authenticity of this story is still up for debate, but Dan Qiusheng's prowess in alchemy is evident.
And Xiao Lin just consumed a First-Grade Elixir refined by Dan Qiusheng, which even the five peak masters, cultivators of the Upper Three Realms, envied greatly.
So why was Xiao Lin laughing?

It's actually because Dan Qiusheng has a habit of adding some seasonings while refining elixirs—stemming from his youthful passion for cooking.
Unfortunately, according to feedback from those who have tasted Dan Qiusheng's elixirs, his understanding of cooking seems a bit unconventional, and those seasonings, which could be described as "dark," produce some strange chemical reactions when combined with medicinal ingredients...
So Xiao Lin almost retched earlier and is now laughing uncontrollably.
"Hahahaha... Master... what's happening to me... hahahaha... save me... hahahaha..." Xiao Lin laughed wildly while seeking help from Leng Youxue.
"This is normal. Haven't you noticed your body is improving?"
"It is... improving... hahahaha... but... hahahahaha... laughing is so uncomfortable..."
"Endure it. If you can't handle a little hardship, how can you call yourself my disciple?"
"Then Master... hahahaha... could you put down... hahahaha... the Image Preservation Stone... hahahaha..."
"I can't understand what you're saying."
Ignoring Xiao Lin's protest, Leng Youxue aimed an Image Preservation Stone at him, took out a few more for a full view, then turned back to look at the Tribulation Lightning in the sky.
Finally, sect leader, if you don't look over soon, I'm going to break down...
Li Yuhuan, sensing this scene, shed tears of emotion in his heart.
After all, the Thunder Dragon was currently watching Leng Youxue and Xiao Lin atop Green Lotus Peak, and the peak masters hovering above were directly in its line of sight, meaning the Thunder Dragon's gaze fell directly on them.
Although the terrifying pressure was no longer felt due to Leng Youxue's presence, being stared at by such a colossal creature still made everyone but Li Qingjiu, who was somewhat eager to fight, feel uneasy.
"You guys, stop standing there, come down. Do you think you look cool up there?"
"Yes, sect leader."
The peak masters immediately descended to the top of Green Lotus Peak, though Li Qingjiu was reluctant to leave until He Yun pulled her down.
"So, what do you want to do?"
With her view unobstructed again, Leng Youxue looked up at the Thunder Dragon in the sky and coldly asked.
It must be said, although Leng Youxue appeared petite and cute, when serious, her delicate face exuded a cold arrogance that seemed to look down on the world.
Everyone watching this scene on Green Lotus Peak felt an illusion at that moment—the petite Leng Youxue was the true giant towering in the heavens, while the massive Thunder Dragon was the insignificant existence in comparison.
Of course, saying "everyone" might not be entirely accurate, because...
"Hahahahaha..."
Xiao Lin, still laughing uncontrollably, couldn't share their sentiment.
In fact, being right behind Leng Youxue, he even disrupted the cold and proud atmosphere she had created.
"......"
Leng Youxue seemed to notice this too, her expression slightly stiffening as she continued to look at the Thunder Dragon, "Not speaking? Do I have to come over and ask you myself?"
The Thunder Dragon still showed no response, just hovering in the air, exuding a terrifying aura and pressure.
"Then I'll come and speak to you myself."
Leng Youxue sneered, her petite body rising into the air.
Just as everyone's hearts were in their throats, thinking a direct confrontation between a cultivator and Tribulation Lightning was about to unfold, they suddenly noticed...
"Is it my illusion? Did that dragon get smaller?" Ning Yunmiao, holding Xiaobai, looked up at the Thunder Dragon and murmured to herself.
Soon, she realized she hadn't been mistaken.
Because as Leng Youxue flew higher, the Thunder Dragon grew smaller, transforming from a sky-covering giant into a tiny dot in the sky within a few breaths.
