Chapter 93: That's Really Something! (Bonus Update!!!)
That night, Jiangnan returned to his room!
Looking at himself in the mirror.
He couldn't help but fall into thought.
Hmm...
Although both his eye sockets were black and blue!
It still didn't affect his handsome and charming face, right?
It's even quite symmetrical?
Very nice~
But he still took out a Peerless Beauty Pill and popped it.
To make up for it.
After all, no one would complain about being too handsome...
After finishing all this, Jiangnan couldn't contain his excitement.
He finally took out the Heart-Pounding Pop Rocks!
The system description said it was powerful!
And it was a rare legitimate prize.
After all, the Marrow-Washing Spirit Fruit and the Peerless Beauty Pill were no joke!
Then Jiangnan stared blankly at the pop rocks in his hand.
What the hell was with the cartoon packaging!
And it even came with a straw?
Damn!
What kind of crappy look was this!
I'm already this old, eating something like this is totally inappropriate!
Jiangnan gritted his teeth!
Screw it, he didn't care!
He opened the packaging, stuck the straw in.
Then took a big suck!
His momentum was even fiercer than Brother Qian'er smoking!
A whole packet of Heart-Pounding Pop Rocks went straight into his mouth.
Hey hehe?
So sweet!
ღ(๑╯◡╰๑)ღ
But before Jiangnan could enjoy it for long...
Then...
With a loud "BANG!"
It exploded directly in Jiangnan's mouth!
It stunned him immediately!
His brain was buzzing!
He fell straight onto the bed like a mummy!
A look of terror on his face?
"Damn!"
"What the hell is this!"
"Is this really pop rocks? Not some C4 bomb or something?"
Was it this strong?
Before Jiangnan could recover,
A storm of explosions began in his mouth!
"Bang! Bang!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
It was like setting off 20,000 firecrackers in his mouth!
Like a whole box of double-bang firecrackers going off!
His mouth was numbed by the blasts!
This time, Jiangnan finally understood why it was called Heart-Pounding Pop Rocks!
Wasn't this way too "pounding"?
"Oww!"
In the end, he couldn't hold back and cried out.
A series of sounds came from Jiangnan's mouth!
"Bang bang bang bang pow! Da da da da da!"
It was so intense!
Even a blue-flame Gatling gun probably didn't have this terrifying firepower!
Scared, Jiangnan quickly shut his mouth!
His body writhed wildly on the bed, trembling!
He grabbed the sheets tightly, tears of regret streaming from the corners of his eyes!
He shouldn't have believed the system's lies!
Now not only his mouth was numb, but his whole body was tingling!
Jiangnan could only endure the bombardment!
But his body was undergoing astonishing changes!
The surrounding spiritual energy surged into him at a rate ten times faster than usual!
Forcing his cultivation from Bronze Three Stars all the way to Bronze Four Stars!
...
Meanwhile, on the second floor, Xia Yao's room!
Ten cool shorts were laid out on the bed, and Xia Yao's face flushed slightly.
"I'm just trying them on... It's no big deal!"
"After all, it's Xiao Nan's thoughtful gift~"
She picked out a blue pair and secretly put them on!
Looking down at herself, she was very satisfied, feeling pretty!
Then she quickly turned back to check if the door was locked!
Xia Yao's face turned even redder!
She didn't know why, but she just felt very embarrassed!
Then she immediately activated her beast transformation!
Under the moonlight, wolf ears stood on her head, and a fluffy silver tail swayed gently behind her!
She looked absolutely stunning!
Sure enough, just as Xiao Nan said, this Hulk Brand Shorts could perfectly accommodate her half-beast transformation needs!
Just then, a "da da da" sound came from downstairs.
It sounded like a machine gun firing rapidly,
Or like a tractor starting up?
Startled, Xia Yao quickly retracted her ears and tail, a puzzled look on her face.
What's going on?
She quickly dressed and pushed open the door!
Zhong Yingxue also poked her head out. The two exchanged glances, both confused.
They came together to Jiangnan's room!
The moment they pushed open the door, they were stunned!
Jiangnan's eyes were hollow, as if he had lost his soul!
Tears at the corners of his eyes, a faint melancholy on his face!
He was drenched in sweat, still twitching on the bed...
The moment they saw Jiangnan's profile,
Both Zhong Yingxue and Xia Yao felt their hearts race!
The more they looked, the more they liked him!
Zhong Yingxue said worriedly, "Xiao Nan? Why are you crying?"
Xia Yao: "Crying so sadly? Did you soak the blanket with tears?"
Jiangnan: ...
That was sweat, okay!
The effects of the Heart-Pounding Pop Rocks had just faded!
It was way too intense!
Xia Yao sat on the edge of the bed, gently wiping away Jiangnan's tears, looking distressed.
"Don't cry! I'm sorry, is it because I bullied you?"
"I'll never hit you or bite you again, okay?"
Zhong Yingxue cradled Jiangnan in her arms, gently patting his back.
"Xiao Nan, don't be afraid! Xuexue is here. Did you have a nightmare?"
Jiangnan: ???
Something's wrong!
Zhong Yingxue's gaze at him was way too gentle!
It was practically radiating maternal light!
Even Da Lang Mie had become this gentle?
Speaking softly in a sweet voice that was just melting!
Was it because of the Heart-Pounding Pop Rocks?
Increased charm?
This was awesome!
It even made Jiangnan feel a pang of guilt!
"Um... I actually have a strange illness!"
"I can't sleep at night! I can only sleep if someone stays with me!"
Taking advantage?
How could he not take advantage, I tell you!
As for guilt, Jiangnan loved it the most!
Zhong Yingxue's pretty face flushed: "No way! But... I can give you a hug..."
Xia Yao glared: "Pfft! Don't let him hug! Hmph! I haven't even hugged him like that!"
"And I was so worried about you!"
"Just go ahead and lose sleep!"
With that, she grabbed Zhong Yingxue's hand and left the room.
Jiangnan watched Xia Yao's back and was stunned.
Hulk Brand Shorts? So she had already put them on?
Hmph!
She said she didn't like it,
But her body was honest!
Xia Yao and Zhong Yingxue left Jiangnan's room.
"By the way, Xuexue, don't you think Xiao Nan looked especially handsome tonight?"
"For a moment, I felt like he was my type!"
Zhong Yingxue blushed: "Mm... the kind that makes your heart race!"
"So strange!"
In the room, Jiangnan, eavesdropping through a Space Wormhole, chuckled to himself.
So Heart-Pounding Pop Rocks really could make others' hearts pound for him!
But the effect had its limits!
It couldn't change people's subconscious.
That aside, just the tenfold increase in spiritual energy absorption rate was already insane!
If he could keep it up, his cultivation would soar like a rocket!
But it was way too intense!
Bang bang!
He needed to earn more resentment points.
In the following days, Jiangnan trained intensely with the two beauties during the day, teaching them close combat!
At night, he went with Wu Liang to set up a stall!
After closing, he went to Wu Liang's secret base to teach him how to use the saber and shield!
He got good gains every day!
Plus, with the 7 jin of Spirit Beads Jiangnan had,
It was enough for everyone to use throughout the summer break!
No need to suffer in the Spirit Ruins, the summer was very fulfilling!
And one night, Jiangnan was fiddling with his phone.
Suddenly, he received a friend request!
A friend request from "Luo Tianhong"?
The username was her real name, and even the profile picture was her ID photo!
In the photo, Luo Tianhong looked a bit younger, with short hair.
So cool!
Friend request?
Hmph!
Jiangnan directly rejected it!
A man!
Must be tough!
Did she think she could add my WeChat just like that?
I'm the man nine hundred million girls can never have!
But the next moment,
Jiangnan's phone suddenly rang.
"Hello?"
"Do you want to die?"
"Accept immediately!"
Jiangnan shuddered, recalling the scene of Mountain Cat crushing the Earth-Shattering Bear.
He quickly accepted the friend request!
Hmph?
It was just being cautious! Just cautious!
Survival first!
