"Hiss, ah, delicious!"
After the honey pomelo water cooled down, Tai Meng practically chugged it, like Zhu Bajie eating a ginseng fruit.
If Bai Yue hadn't stopped her, Tai Meng might have even tried the scalding hot honey pomelo water that had just been brewed.
Bai Yue had made this pomelo water with boiled water. While this might cause some loss of nutrients, these second-generation rich kids weren't lacking in nutrients; it was just a drink, as long as they enjoyed it.
Although Bai Yue felt a bit disdainful of Tai Meng, he himself drank at roughly the same speed.
Leaving a cup of milk tea for a day—that's typically what girls do. Boys usually finish it right away; if they don't, it just means it doesn't taste good.
Suddenly, Bai Yue thought of something and didn't chug his honey pomelo water. Instead, he summoned White Phoenix.
"Chirp."
White Phoenix stood on the kitchen table, not feeling like she would become a dish. She chirped happily upon seeing Bai Yue.
"Here, drink this honey pomelo water."
Bai Yue naturally wouldn't do something so crude. He had summoned White Phoenix to give her a drink.
A phoenix only rests on a wutong tree, only eats bamboo seeds, and only drinks sweet spring water.
This saying certainly isn't meant to be taken literally, that a phoenix won't perch anywhere but a wutong tree, won't eat anything but bamboo seeds, or won't drink anything but sweet spring water.
It merely serves to express the phoenix's noble character. Zhuangzi described the phoenix as so noble to represent himself, then used a carrion-eating owl to represent Huizi.
Although he often disparaged Huizi in his writings, Zhuangzi and Huizi's relationship must have been quite good. Yes, what Zhuangzi did was something only a "sucker" friend would do.
Getting back to the honey pomelo water, this honey pomelo water is definitely sweeter than sweet spring water.
"Chirp." White Phoenix chirped happily upon seeing the honey pomelo water, then lowered her head and drank.
After one sip, she found it delicious and drank even more eagerly, but even so, she maintained the elegance of a phoenix.
"White Phoenix, you've really worked hard today."
Bai Yue watched White Phoenix obediently drink the honey pomelo water he made, and reached out to stroke her back.
White Phoenix had indeed worked hard today. He had summoned and recalled her many times before, so rewarding her was only right.
He wasn't like Yu Xiaogang, who only knew to feed Luo San Pao radishes.
While eating radishes can induce flatulence, one can't just feed radishes, right? Give the child something good to eat.
"Xiaoyue, your White Phoenix is truly beautiful."
Even though Niu Li had seen Bai Yue's White Phoenix once before, she still found White Phoenix beautiful upon seeing her again.
"An external Beast Spirit. Can I touch her?"
Tai Meng said this, but Bai Yue certainly wouldn't agree. Tai Meng is heavy-handed; if White Phoenix were crushed to death by her, he would be the one to suffer.
A Spirit and a Spirit Master are one. If such a thing really happened, he would probably be severely injured.
In the original work, Yu Xiaogang's Luo San Pao was bitten by a Datura Snake, and after being recalled, he himself was poisoned.
Bai Yue thought of the events in the original work and felt there was something to research here.
Although other Spirit Masters' Spirits and Spirit Masters are one, his is an external Beast Spirit, so it doesn't seem to be entirely the case.
Yu Xiaogang was poisoned after recalling Luo San Pao; the poisoning should have occurred when he brought back the toxins upon recalling Luo San Pao.
If Luo San Pao sustained injuries not accompanied by toxins, Yu Xiaogang should not have had such a strong reaction after recalling her.
However, thinking of Yu Xiaogang's misfortunes in the original work, Bai Yue took it as a warning.
He definitely wouldn't feed White Phoenix any strange things in the future. If she were poisoned, he himself would also be poisoned after recalling her.
"White Phoenix is still young, please let her off."
Bai Yue's refusal was very tactful. Of course, it wasn't just letting White Phoenix off, but also letting him off.
"Xiaoyue, why do you still remember that incident so clearly? I told you I was startled by you, and the Great Strength Gorilla instinctively possessed me. Normally, I always hold back my strength."
Hearing Bai Yue's words, Tai Meng laughed awkwardly.
Evidently, she was also very embarrassed about the previous incident. Although she said such things, she also knew that she was indeed heavy-handed and voluntarily moved a little further away from White Phoenix.
"Oh, by the way, your Beast Spirits can possess you!"
"Although my White Phoenix is an external Beast Spirit, she is still a Beast Spirit. I've been trying to figure out how to make White Phoenix possess me too. Sister Li, Sister Meng, quickly teach me."
Bai Yue thought that Niu Li's and Tai Meng's Spirits were both Beast Spirits, and he felt he could draw some experience about Spirit possession from them.
"Spirit possession, it's just like that, you release spirit power, then the feeling comes, and poof, you're possessed."
"That's right, it's like that. When the feeling comes, then do that, anyway, it's just like this and that…"
However, Bai Yue's words stumped Niu Li and Tai Meng.
Spirit possession is pretty much an instinct. How could they teach it? They could only describe how they felt when their Spirits possessed them.
Bai Yue listened for a while, but the more he listened, the more confused he became.
Niu Li's and Tai Meng's "this and that" descriptions made his head spin. He couldn't extract any useful information from their words at all.
"Sister Li, come here for a moment. Put your hands behind your back and then squat down."
Bai Yue decided to communicate directly through consciousness. As for why he didn't choose Tai Meng, her Spirit is a Great Strength Gorilla, and he was afraid Tai Meng would possess her Spirit and then finish him off.
"What's wrong?"
Niu Li was a bit confused after hearing Bai Yue's words, but she still did as he said, putting her hands behind her back and squatting down so that her eyes were level with Bai Yue's.
To be honest, she hadn't looked closely before, but now, looking carefully at Bai Yue's face, Niu Li felt that Bai Yue was becoming more and more handsome the more she looked.
"Sister Li, I want to kiss you."
Bai Yue didn't dare to launch a surprise attack on Niu Li and the others like he did with Tang Yuehua.
Otherwise, if Niu Li's Spirit possessed her, even though her hands were behind her back, if there were any stress reactions, he wouldn't fare well.
"Just kiss me then, I thought it was something important."
Niu Li thought Bai Yue wanted to do something, but it turned out he just wanted to kiss her. She wondered what it was.
After hearing him, she immediately kissed him. Seeing Bai Yue's moist lips, she was indeed a little moved.
"Mmm."
Bai Yue's mouth was blocked, but he was also very happy that Niu Li was so proactive.
As their bodies touched, their consciousnesses also connected, and Bai Yue actively absorbed Niu Li's knowledge.
Hmm, a feeling of an empty brain, a barrenness untouched by any knowledge.
However, Niu Li had quite a lot of experience with Spirit possession, which is what Bai Yue wanted, so he could be said to have achieved his goal.
Niu Li, on the other hand, was immersed in the beauty of the kiss. She had never known before that kissing felt so wonderful, like opening the door to a new World.
