"This is... Hu Jia..."
"Hu Jia, what on earth is this?"
When Xu Ran woke up early in the morning, the first thing he saw was Hu Jia standing in front of his bed, exceedingly charming, which gave him quite a shock.
Is this seriously a maid outfit?
And... what the hell is with that tail behind her? Is it tied around her waist with a rope, or... Damn these bizarre pieces of knowledge.
There were also those black, fuzzy fox ears...
The cute attire coupled with a hot body, both cute and sexy at the same time.
Could the people of this world come up with this?
It directly hit Xu Ran's soft spot.
Especially Hu Jia, the little demoness, who would have thought she had such a side to her?
"It must have been Mei'er teaching Hu Jia these past few days," Xu Ran guessed silently. Xiao Mei had been up to who knows what, sneaking around with Hu Jia all this time.
Xiao Mei, that girl, he did tell her about those things.
"Brother Xu Ran, you're awake?"
Upon seeing Xu Ran, Hu Jia suddenly kneeled on the ground, lying on the floor, batting her sparkling eyes. Her skirt, as Hu Jia lay there, hid less and less... Her long legs wrapped in black tights kneeling on the ground, with a bit of white dust clinging to the knees.
"Hu Jia, what are you doing? If the vice principal finds out, wouldn't he beat me to death?" Xu Ran was still a bit unaccustomed, and he could feel goosebumps all over his body.
"Brother Xu Ran, do I not look nice?" Hu Jia crawled up to Xu Ran, thinking of Xiao Mei's instructions, she could only get close to him and exhale softly.
Her voice was sultry, but it was clear that Hu Jia was quite unpracticed, and within the delicate voice, there seemed to be a hint of reluctance.
"You look nice, but..."
"This must be something Mei'er taught you," Xu Ran said irritably. He could see a scheming glint in Hu Jia's eyes.
This girl was a little witch in the academy, always making unsolicited offers, either a scam or a theft.
"Brother Xu Ran, this was my own idea. Don't you like Jia Jia?" Hu Jia's voice quivered, her normally forthright voice becoming like this was truly more than Xu Ran could stand.
Of course, it mostly gave him the goosebumps.
What's with this Jia Jia... Ah, this...
I'm not into this style at all.
But this posture was indeed irresistible to Xu Ran.
Who could resist having a sultry girl lying before you first thing in the morning, looking up at you with pleading eyes? He bowed his head and stroked Hu Jia's head as if he was petting a little animal.
"Out with it then, what do you want?"
"Brother Xu Ran, I want to eat jelly beans," Hu Jia looked up, opened her mouth wide, assuming a posture waiting to be fed by Xu Ran.
"So that's why you've changed. You're here to ask me for elixirs..." Xu Ran's mouth twitched, Hu Jia truly lived up to her name as the little demoness, picking up and putting down without hesitation.
Her expectant look for feeding was rather cute.
"Brother Xu Ran, just give me one please. I'm so weak now, wah wah wah, even Xiao Mei can bully me, and she even hit me, wah..." Hu Jia looked pitifully at Xu Ran, her eyes watery.
"Actually, besides jelly beans, I also have nutrient shots that I can give you; they're also great tonics. Forget it, I'll still give you candy," Xu Ran casually flicked an elixir into Hu Jia's mouth. Better not lead her astray for the time being.
The elixir melted quickly, with the powerful medicine spreading throughout her entire body.
Bones, muscle... every cell in her body rejoiced and celebrated.
Six-Star Great Fighter…
Seven-Star Great Fighter…
Eight-Star Great Fighting Master…
Nine-Star Great Fighting Master…
And Hu Jia's "Cultivation Level" soared rapidly, breaking through to Dou Spirit in an instant.
At this time, the power of the Elixirs had been almost completely absorbed, and the turbulent Dou Qi energy also slowed down. Hu Jia's "Cultivation Level" stabilized at the level of a one-star Dou Spirit.
This happened in a short amount of Time.
From taking the Elixirs to the breakthrough in "Cultivation Level", it took less than a minute.
One could say that Hu Jia hadn't even reacted yet, she hadn't even had Time to swallow properly before the Elixir slid straight into her throat, rapidly dissolving in her body, and then promoting her breakthrough in "Cultivation Level".
In the blink of an eye, she had saved herself several years of arduous cultivation.
"So, breaking through in "Cultivation Level" can be this easy…" Hu Jia's eyes turned red all of sudden, she was almost moved to tears. From childhood to adulthood, she had never had such an easy experience. Every level she climbed was the result of months of grueling cultivation.
If she were to cultivate normally, it would take her over a year, maybe even two, to break through to Dou Spirit.
And now the Time it took was, one minute?
"Brother Xu Ran, I want more, I want more…" Hu Jia, having seen how sweet success could be, almost looked up pitifully at Xu Ran, wriggling her bottom and waving her perky, fluffy black tail.
She finally understood what Xiao Mei and the others felt cultivating with Xu Ran.
As long as you're with Xu Ran, even a pig could become a superpower.
Cultivation was just incidental.
"There's none left, no matter how much you beg, I have none. Xun Er and the others are only at Dou Spirit as well—you want to ascend to heaven or what." Xu Ran really couldn't help wanting to pull off Hu Jia's tail and see what was really holding it in place.
"Oh, okay."
Hu Jia pouted.
However, she was already very happy with such a harvest. It seemed that the things she had learned following Xiao Mei around these days were indeed useful. Even though it was a bit embarrassing, what was there to fear as long as her "Cultivation Level" increased?
Nobody else knew, after all.
She wasn't afraid even if Xu Ran couldn't help himself and ate her, if Xu Ran ate her, he would have to take responsibility for her, and then she would have lots of jelly beans to eat in the future, as well as nutrition drinks—what were those?
She didn't know yet.
But they must also be super supplements not inferior to these Elixirs.
"Brother Xu Ran, what do you want to see next time? Hu Jia can consider it, you know." Hu Jia looked at Xu Ran with a smile, swallowing hard. Xu Ran was a treasure trove to her.
"Just be normal for once, and don't go into my room whenever you feel like it."
"Jiajia did make sure to find out from Xiao Mei when your room was empty before coming in," Hu Jia said with a grin, "If Brother Xu Ran doesn't have any other requests, then I'll take my leave."
Having broken through to Dou Spirit, naturally, she wanted to show off in front of Wu Hao and the others.
Although Xun Er and the others had also broken through to Dou Spirit, not many knew about it.
Hu Jia, of course, couldn't help herself—she wanted to find her grandfather and let them know just how strong she was now!
"Wait, I do have one question for you… that tail of yours…"
"This… that… I'll be going now, see you next time." The smile on Hu Jia's face stopped abruptly, and her face turned red, no longer composed as before; she ran off, scrambling and tripping.
Even though he didn't say it out loud, from Hu Jia's reaction, Xu Ran knew…
