Yun Chujiu gnashed her teeth in secret. 'Excuse you! What does being hungry have anything to do with me?! Am I your mom or dad?!'
But while Yun Chujiu thought gloomily in her heart, she said, "Prince Charming, your breakfast is still warm, I'll bring it to you now!"
Yun Chujiu felt that she would definitely go crazy if she continued acting like this.
Yun Chujiu carried a food box and went into the room in a servile manner. Luckily, the three people outside had only eaten the food in one food box in the morning, and, as it happened, she could just give this food box to Di Beiming.
Di Beiming was leaning against the bedside lackadaisically, and he smiled a little when he saw Yun Chujiu striding inside.
"Prince Charming, you're awake now? Why do you look even more charming after your sleep?" Yun Chujiu put on a fawning look.
Di Beiming had enjoyed Yun Chujiu's "great confession" and hummed faintly. He moved in front of the table and ate his breakfast slowly.
Yun Chujiu put her hands under her chin and kept looking at Di Beiming without blinking.
'Darn it... How could this pretty boy be so good looking?! It's so unreasonable! I really wish I can draw a small tortoise on his face. Let's see whether he'll still look so pretty even after that.' As Yun Chujiu continued thinking, an enigmatic smile showed up on her face.
Di Beiming naturally noticed Yun Chujiu's passionate gaze and felt proud. This dark-skinned thing must be deeply in love with me, or else she would not look so infatuated even when she looks at me eat!'
After Di Beiming ate his meal, he coughed, and Yun Chujiu snapped out of her "sweet dream".
"Prince Charming, you finished eating?"
"Yes."
"Prince Charming, let me give you a massage!" Yun Chujiu quickly tried to curry favor with Di Beijing when she remembered the Hair-growth Pill An Feng mentioned.
Di Beiming was stunned. He was still not used to having someone be so near to him. But he was not that averse to Yun Chujiu's presence, and as if he were granting a special favor to Yun Chujiu, he said, "Alright. Since you're so sincere, I'll allow you to do it."
Yun Chujiu felt like strangling this pretty boy who just loved to pretend to be cool. But unfortunately for her, she could only think about it.
Yun Chujiu ran behind Di Beiming in a servile manner and started to seriously message Di Beiming's shoulders.
In the beginning, Di Beiming's body was quite taut. But no one knew whether it was because Yun Chujiu's skills were really good, or whether it was for some other reason, but Di Beiming slowly relaxed, and he felt that the sensation of being massaged was actually pretty good. Even the dazzling sunlight shining from outside became pleasing to the eyes.
"Prince Charming, could you help me out a little?" Yun Chujiu finally let the cat out of the bag.
"Speak," said Di Beiming faintly with his eyes closed.
"Well... isn't my hair all gone? I'm really a little ugly because of it, and I know that you have a lot of methods up your sleeves, so could you help me get some pills that will promote hair growth?"
"How did you lose your hair?" Di Beiming did not agree nor disagree.
Yun Chujiu blinked, thought about things for a while, and decided to tell the truth. "I mean, I'm useless when it comes to cultivation, right? But after being struck by lightning yesterday, I found out that I can absorb the power of lightning. So, I climbed up to the tree and wanted to absorb more. But I didn't expect myself to overdo it, so I ended up like this."
Di Beiming's expression changed. "What? Absorbing the power of lightning?"
Di Beiming thought about this for a moment. Then, an expression of realization appeared on his face. 'It's no wonder why I wasn't able to help clear the dark-skinned thing's blocked meridian system last time. So, she has the rare lightning spirit root!'
Yun Chujiu was a bit worried when she saw Di Beiming not speaking for a while, "Prince Charming, is something wrong?"
Di Beiming had a thought appear in his head, and he solemnly said, "Yes. The cultivation of lightning spirit roots is different from the cultivation of other spirit roots. If no one guides you, it'll be very easy for you to go through qi deviation."
Yun Chujiu was someone who treasured her life greatly. When she heard Di Beiming say those words, she immediately shouted in surprise and fear. "Huh? Is there such a saying?! Who should I find to guide me? The people in Ye City don't even know about lightning spirit roots."
"Only the main four sects in the Qingxuan Continent have cultivation techniques for lightning spiritual roots. But, it's not easy to become one of their disciples, especially for someone stupid like you," Di Beiming said scornfully.
Yun Chujiu was so angry that she glared at him, and she used more strength in her hands.
"Yes, not bad. This is just nice. You used too little strength just now!" Di Beiming said in satisfaction.
Yun Chujiu was so mad that she twitched, and she had a strong urge to kick Di Beiming. However, she put up with it in order to protect her own life.
"In truth, I can guide you a little, but I'm busy…"
Yun Chujiu was a smart girl, and she immediately guessed what Di Beiming was trying to say.
"Prince Charming, I just know that you're capable of doing anything you want. I might be a little slow in the head, but I'm hardworking! Like they say, 'hard work can compensate for a lack of natural talent.' If you can guide me, I'm willing to serve you faithfully!"
When Yun Chujiu saw that Di Beiming was not talking, she decided to put in more effort and said, "Prince Charming, think about it, if you train me well, I can strike down those people whom you hate with lightning. It'll be really cool!"
Di Beiming continued to remain silent.
"Prince Charming, once I complete my cultivation, I can bring forth lightning for your entertainment at night, and it'll be way classier than fireworks!"
Di Beiming felt his lips twitch. 'This dark-skinned thing sure has a unique thought process. Could it be because of the lightning spirit root?'
"Prince Charming, please just give me a straight answer. If you're not willing to teach me, I will go and beg the main four sects until they let me in!" Yun Chujiu became a little anxious when she saw that Di Beiming was still not willing to express his stance on the matter.
"Hmph! Dark-skinned thing, how dare you?! Do you actually think that I can't compare to those lousy people?" Di Beiming scowled.
'Pretty boy, you're completely off your rockers!
'You didn't show give me an answer even after I said so many nice words, and now, you're blaming me?!'
Yun Chujiu may have been fuming, but she showed surprise and delight on her face. "Prince Charming, are you saying that you'll be guiding me?"
Di Beiming hummed faintly. "Continue massaging me!"
Yun Chujiu had to tragically massage him for another hour before Di Beiming contemptuously said, "Stop! Your skills are terrible, and my entire body feels horrible."
Yun Chujiu no longer had the strength to make a sarcastic quip. All her complaints were gathered into just one single sentence. 'Pretty Boy, just you wait!'
Di Beiming's conscience may have felt a little guilty because he finally mentioned the main topic. "Tell me how you absorbed the lightning element, and I want details."
Yun Chujiu became excited, and she told him the general gist of her cultivation process.
Di Beiming was shocked. While those with lightning spiritual roots could absorb the power of lightning, it was only limited to wandering lightning elements. He had never heard of anyone who could directly absorb lightning into their bodies like the dark-skinned thing.
'The power of lightning is incredibly wild. If someone absorbs too much of it, the best case would be that their Dantian region is destroyed, and the worst case is that they won't even be able to protect their own lives. Judging from what this dark-skinned thing said, she's absorbed four lightning bolts? How is that possible?!'
While Di Beiming was feeling very puzzled, Yun Chujiu continued and said, "Prince Charming, there is still another interesting situation. I found out that purple celestial lightning bolts chase after me, but the silver ones don't. Why is that?"
Di Beiming suddenly remembered the moment he got struck by the purple celestial lightning in the monster forest. 'So, this dark-skinned thing is actually the culprit who caused me to suffer that accident?!'
Yun Chujiu suddenly felt her skin crawl, and she noticed Di Beiming looking at her so angrily that it looked like he wanted to rip her to shreds. She was completely dumbfounded.
