A tight embrace, and the two pairs of slimes deform under pressure.
Gui Naifen felt the touch on her chest and paused for a moment.
When did Changchang grow up so big?
Could it be that she's developing again because she has a boyfriend? Gui Naifen, a popular online personality, has heard the saying that being rubbed by a lover for a long time after falling in love can make you bigger.
I can't believe it's actually true!
However, now is not the time to consider pillow size!
"Please be sure to take me with you!"
Xiao Guizi, who already possessed exceptional performing talent, began to gradually discover her own talent after becoming Qiong's apprentice. She feigned a grateful and shy demeanor as a daughter and held Changshang's delicate hand.
"If you can get the Immortal Boat to pardon you, brother... In the words of the Immortal Boat, I, Chang Chang, am so grateful that I have no way to repay your kindness. I am willing to offer myself to you!"
"Okay!"
Moon's Mark smiled broadly.

Chapter 278 Is Changchang using idioms in her speech?
After quickly finishing several dishes of local specialties, Yuehen bid farewell to the proprietress Yan Cui and, together with her best friend who had pledged herself to her and Xiao Bailu, went to Changle Tian Ferry to take a ride on a star raft.
Target: Dan Ding Si.
Chang Le Cave and Danxia Cave are quite far apart, and it takes some time to get there by high-speed shuttle bus.
On the star-shaped raft, Bai Lu, in a condescending tone, told Sister Su Chang and Gui Naifen about some things related to the Dan Ding Si.
In ancient times, the Dan Ding Division was the highest-ranking and most valued department among the six divisions of the Immortal Ship, without exception.
Their function is not to cure diseases and save lives, but to study the methods of longevity, refine elixirs, and reach their peak after obtaining abundant blessings and longevity.
Following the chaos of the Demon Yin and the conversion hunt, laws prohibiting immortality were successively promulgated, causing the Dan Ding Division's social status on the Immortal Ship to plummet.
From a core institution dedicated to exploring longevity, it has gradually degenerated into one that can only be responsible for regulating medical affairs. Furthermore, due to its resistance to the politically correct notion of abundance, its staff and funding have been repeatedly cut.
The position of Director of the Alchemy Bureau remained vacant for a long time, which was also due to certain related factors.
If it were any of the other five departments, the position of Director of the Imperial Stables would never have been vacant for such a long time.
"We've arrived. Once we cross this intersection, the market for practicing medicine will be just ahead."
Bai Lu stopped and pointed ahead.
"This place is very lively."
Looking up, Yuehen saw a vast market in front of her, with orange maple leaves swaying like fire and branches standing like dragon heads.
Huanjiang overlooks the sea, a place of outstanding natural beauty and rich cultural heritage. The air is filled with a faint fragrance of medicinal herbs, and the surrounding property prices are quite high.
"After all, this is an area of Dan Ding Si that is open to the outside world."
Bai Lu put her hands on her hips and said, "I usually make house calls here."
To be precise, the vast majority of physicians and alchemists within the Dan Ding Si practice their medicine in this designated outer area.
Even though the Dan Ding Si (丹鼎司) has a low status now, it is still one of the six core departments. In ancient times, it was the Imperial Medical Bureau, which was responsible for treating the emperor and refining elixirs. Its elites were all imperial physicians.
How could one of the core national institutions allow ordinary people to come and go as they please?
On March 7th, Xi'er and Little Duck had been stuck at the Medical Market for a while, and only after tactically calling for reinforcements were they able to enter the Dan Ding Division.
Now, being unfamiliar with the place, they are wandering around like headless flies, looking for clues.
"Let's go."
Yuehen gently rubbed Bailu's little head.
"Sister Sushang, stop rubbing my head, it'll stunt my growth!"
Bai Lu shook her little head vigorously to shake off Yuehen's hand, and led the way with her chubby little legs.
Just then, a bird with logistics skills flew by and made a sound like, "Sir, this way!"
"Tsk tsk, I never expected that the Pill Refining Division would become the headquarters of the Medicine King's secret teachings."
As she led the way, Bai Lu crossed her arms, pouted, and sighed with emotion.
Despite Yuehen producing evidence such as the Medicine King's secret prescriptions, she still finds it hard to accept that her own stronghold is actually a hiding place for the scourge of the plague.
Outrageous!
Outrageous!
With Bai Lu leading the way, the three of them traveled smoothly without any obstacles. Who could stop the Medicine-Carrying Dragon Girl from examining 'patients' on her own territory?
The brown-haired girl walked side by side with Gui Naifen behind Bai Lu, looking around at the ancient, vintage buildings, and casually remarked:
"Based on what you said before, Bai Lu, there's nothing strange about this."
"The Dan Ding Si was the origin of the pharmacist faith. The alchemists were once incredibly glorious, but they declined along with the Dan Ding Si. The rise and fall, the changes in their circumstances, are something that those pharmacist believers find hard to forget."
Upon entering the Dan Ding Division, Yuehen activated the automatic combat system. At this moment, Li Sushang was in control of the body, and these two sentences were spoken by Li Sushang.
This caused Gui Naifen, who was following beside her, to have a subtle expression.
"Ups and downs, hard to bear," these are the words that Chang Chang could utter.
Changchang is using idioms in her speech now!?
No, can being in a relationship really bring about such a big change in a person?
"Bai Lu, think about it, are there any places you haven't been to much that you think might be problematic?"
"Having regained control of my body," Yuehen asked in a low voice.
Switching control is simple; she only needs a thought, and she can do it even at an ultra-high speed, switching several times per second.
The perception of the surroundings when Yuehen controls the body and when Li Sushang controls the body are on two different levels, with Li Sushang's perception being higher when she is in control.
"A suspicious place?"
Bai Lu was as familiar with the Dan Ding Si as she was with her own home. The little purple-haired girl rested her chin on her hand and fell into deep thought.
After racking her brains and pondering deeply, Bai Lu suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "I remember now!"
“Once, when I sneaked out at night, I saw a furtive figure heading towards the Qihuang Department!”
"Now that I think about it, those people were very likely the bad guys who shared the secrets of the Medicine King!"
What kind of place is the Qihuang Department?
Gui Naifen was puzzled.
"This is where the doctors of the Dan Ding Division gather to study and research the art of medicine. Do you see that tree in the central courtyard? It is one of the main root systems of the Jianmu tree."
Bai Lu points her little finger in a certain direction.
The moon's shadow revealed the withered yet towering branches of the tree.
"A place where many people can gather for a meeting without attracting attention is indeed a suitable base for the Medicine King's Secret Teachings. Let's go take a look."
"But is it really okay to just go like this?"
Looking at the doctors coming and going in the distance, Bai Lu turned to look at Yuehen and Gui Naifen:
"The Qihuang Bureau is a place where physicians and alchemists discuss medicine and medicine. Generally speaking, patients do not appear there."
As Bai Lu is, she can take the patient there, but she'll have to give an explanation if she runs into acquaintances on the way.
Well...
Yuehen pondered. She could easily come up with several reasons, but the more she said, the more loopholes she revealed.
It would be bad if the people who received the secret teachings of the Medicine King noticed.
"Of course we can't just go straight there."
After a moment's hesitation, Yuehen, under Gui Naifen's astonished gaze, magically produced a mask from behind her.
"What is this? Changchang, when did you learn magic tricks?"
The orange-haired girl with a single ponytail came closer.
"Seeing how much you've improved, Xiao Gui Zi, you've learned a lot through observation and exposure."
This is a lie. The mask in Yuehen's hand is the Tara mask that Qiong sent over through the system's equipment space.
"This is an item I traded with a friend for a treasure; it has magical powers."
Using the guise of an exchange can lay the groundwork for why Yu Duchen ended up in Qiong's hands.
As for friends... boyfriends are friends too!
Each Valkyrie is planned to be equipped with a main weapon to cultivate intimacy and eventually undergo divine awakening.
Kyō's main weapon is the Oddity Yo-Yo, and she occasionally uses the Jizo Soul. Seele uses the Black Abyss White Flower, and Bronya currently dual-wields the Bone Crusher Rabbit and the Jizo Soul.
Qiong plans to use Yu Duchen as Li Sushang's main weapon, as the Key of Consciousness can amplify the Taixu Sword Qi.
"A magical power?"
Gui Naifen and Bai Lu looked at each other, their expressions filled with curiosity.
"Yes, just like this."
Yuehen put on the Tara mask, took Gui Naifen and Bailu's tender white hands, and the shadows beneath her feet rippled like the surface of a lake rippled by the wind.
Amidst Gui Naifen's exclamations of "Eh! Eh!", Yuehen pulled the two into the Shadow Kingdom, moving towards the Qihuang Department through the shadow world.
"Bai Lu, which way did the suspicious figure you saw go last time?"
"there!"
After walking a certain distance, it will float to the ground so that Bailu can determine its direction.
"I don't know exactly where they went."
I only happened to see Bailu when I sneaked out.
"Shangshang, what do we do next? Search everywhere?"
In a shadowy spot in the Qihuang Department, Gui Naifen asked her best friend.
Searching everywhere?
Wouldn't that make him the clever and quick-witted Ah Qi?
"Wait."
Moon Mark provides the answer.
The moment the words fell, shadows writhed in every nook and cranny of the Qihuang Department, and shadow soldiers the size of cockroaches appeared.
Hundreds of small shadow soldiers moved within the Qihuang Department's territory.
The ability of the Shadow Eaters to devour shadows is essentially a form of Qi magic. Yuehen controls these Shadow Eaters to track all the physicians within the Qihuang Department's jurisdiction.
This wait lasted for half an hour.
"found it!"
"Huh? What did you find?"
Bai Lu and Gui Naifen, who were squatting on the ground playing Go, jumped up upon hearing this.
"The problem lies in..."
A target that was being followed by a shadow suddenly disappeared; normally, this wouldn't happen.
Taking Gui Naifen and Bai Lu's hands, Yuehen moved through the shadow world to the location of the Shadow Eater.
The room looked quite ordinary, with the door locked with an old-fashioned lock.
It just looks old-fashioned.
Making smart, high-tech creations look like antiques is a long-standing tradition of Xianzhou.
That's a smart electronic lock that requires authorization verification. Without authorization, it's impossible to open unless a skilled hacker intervenes.
