CHAPTER 433: CHUNHUA, THE POWERBANK

Did she also loot this energy resource from her last trip?

Haoran, on the other hand, reacted differently. It was the first time Xiao Hua displayed her power. That should be what she called ’Qi’ or ’Dao energy’?

"Who are you calling Google—"

The Emperor Piggy put aside his complaints about the weird nickname as it was both pleasantly surprise and stunned by the seed of light.

Despite his reduce energy sensitivity caused by the lower quality materials that his medium is forged from; he could tell it was no worse than the Nine Springs, probably even superior!

There’s hope!

He hurriedly consented, bobbing his porcelain head like a chick pecking feeds, "It’s possible!"

Chunhua was relieved.

++++

Because it was dangerous for Elga to be with Little Mantou, she was transferred to the living room where Siri arranged a temporary ward.

Chunhua superimposed a noise-cancelling array, a barrier, and a qi gathering array in her bedroom after taking out all the furniture.

In the center of the qi gathering array were her and the still unconscious Little Mantou.

Chunhua doesn’t know if her qi reserves is enough.

The others were to wait outside and prevent anyone from coming in and disrupting the process.

Everyone had a lot of questions in their minds, especially Siri. What exactly is his Master...

Besides her, no one can call meteors, or shoot a beam of ice endlessly, or produce a space item out of an ordinary rock, or make explosives out of papers, or one-punched monsters to death, or have a dragon or phoenix eggs for a meal and so on.

The more Siri thought, the more he felt his Master was really odd.

Well, as long as he’s her butler, then he really doesn’t need to worry about anything!

...apart from the food running out...

His heart of suspiciousness was immediately comforted.

++++

Inside the bedroom, when Little Mantou shed the last hair and became a bald little baby, Chunhua heard a system prompt.

[System Notification: Your familiar ’Little Mantou’ is evolving!]

[Evolution Progress: 5%]

The moment Chunhua inserted a strand of qi inside Little Mantou’s body. A suction force came out of nowhere greedily sucked in her qi and his hair, body, and limbs were shrouded with red layers of light and they grew longer and bigger respectively.

One could hear the cracking of bones as the evolution was reshaping his physique and Little Mantou’s whimpering in pain.

Chunhua was startled and wanted to stop.

But at the right moment, Triton urged her: Don’t stop kid! Otherwise the consequences would be bad.

Chunhua bit her lips in reluctance. She forcefully closed her eyes and continued to send qi.

Little Mantou’s tail also undergone changes. From one tail, another one popped and another one. Each one looked like a beautiful white fluffy cotton candy.

Because the qi was much purer than the ones produced in the Nine Springs, the duration of the process shortened but the downside was the pain Little Mantou felt increased exponentially, almost half of what Chunhua experienced during the Thunder Tribulations.

The whole room was soon filled his loud babbles, and louds snivels, like knifes cutting down Chunhua’s hearts.

Chunhua couldn’t take it anymore. She pulled Little Mantou into her arms and started encouraging him.

"Little Mantou, you can do it! I believe in you!"

"You’re one of the bravest little guys I’ve met, protecting his brothers from danger till the end."

"After this, I’ll ask A’ran your favorite dishes, and you can eat to your heart’s content."

Chunhua didn’t know if it was because of what she said but Little Mantou stopped whimpering and squirming in her arms. Relief washed over her form.

"It seems to be working." Chunhua let out a long deep breath, releasing the tension in her heart.

She saw in the middle of Little Mantou’s forehead and its paws, red tattoos emerged.

The appearance was similar to the red spider lilies in her memories. They also bloomed like flames underneath his paws.

"It so beautiful."

The whole process was actually not as calm like in Chunhua’s perspective. Triton was inside the same room.

The bedroom was like caught in the eye of the Category 5 storm just like the Wind-sama event with invisible violent wind blades whipping and lashing against the four walls of the room.

If not for the barrier Chunhua set up, this house and the territory will be damaged.

Triton was initially worried that the kid would sustain injuries when she suddenly hugged the fox but those violent winds only became soft farts after coming into contact with her.

Triton returned his attention on Little Mantou.

The whole evolution process continued until 4 p.m. in the afternoon to the point Chunhua missed her lunch.

Although she was hungry, her happiness for Little Mantou encompassed it.

She stared at the white fox that had grown into a young adult sleeping and chose to wake him up later.

[System Notification: Your Familiar ’Little Mantou’ has finished evolving! Would you like to check his new stats?]

When the door of the bedroom opened, Haoran who had been waiting outside saw finally a glimpse of Chunhua.

"It’s so fast? You’re already done Master?"

"Oink. Oink. Aren’t you supposed to be inside for at least a week?"

It’s only a few hours and she’s done already? The two headed inside and found out that was really the case.

One of the signs when the nine tailed fox was successful in their evolution was the new tails.

Every fox would undergo 9 evolutions in their entire lives but Little Mantou actually skipped two evolutions, which means he can go toe to toe with Tier 3 late stage monsters now.

What kind of magic elixir is that energy? Even the Nine Springs Temple might not produce the same results.

Siri and the Emperor Piggy checked Little Mantou’s state, the more they were speechless and amazed at the same time.

"Kya?" (Is Senior Brother alright now?)

"Ji ji ji!" (I think so. Why do I feel that his skin looks like needles? And look at Senior Brother’s forehead. He didn’t have that before.)

"Chirp Chirp!" (He also became much bigger! And look at his tails! One...two...there’s four of them!)
