Chapter 53: Why Aren't You Wearing Clothes When You Shower?

"Then... then what should I do..."

"Did you make a wish today? I can only hold on for one more day. Can you wish for a Xuanbing Pill tomorrow?"

Ma Xiaotao looked at Bai Zhou with longing eyes because Bai Zhou was her only hope now.

She didn't blame Bai Zhou; she just regretted it a bit. If she had known, she would have accumulated some Xuanbing Pills before cultivating...

If Bai Zhou really had bad luck and couldn't draw a Xuanbing Pill, she might really be finished...

Thinking of the evil fire backlash she would face later, Ma Xiaotao felt only deep despair in her heart.

"Although I didn't wish for a Xuanbing Pill, I obtained an 'Extreme Ice Pill' with better effects. The effect is four or five times that of the 'Xuanbing Pill,' which should be able to help Sister Xiao Tao suppress the evil fire for more than a month."

Bai Zhou blinked and said with a smile.

Every time he wished for a Xuanbing Pill, Bai Zhou felt it was too wasteful, so he used the Wishing System to get a higher-level "Extreme Ice Pill."

Although the probability was very low, with the help of Wang Dong's luck, he drew it after 6 tries. Other rewards were also not few; at least it was better than wasting a chance on a trash Xuanbing Pill.

"Really!"

Hearing this, Ma Xiaotao was instantly ecstatic, feeling like she had ascended from hell to heaven.

"Of course~"

Bai Zhou took out a crystal-clear pill directly.

Compared to the cold-air-exuding Xuanbing Pill, the Extreme Ice Pill looked ordinary, just like a candy.

Only a Soul Master with ice or fire attributes could feel the terrifying cold energy contained within it.

"Extreme Ice Pill... this, this, this..." Seeing the pill in Bai Zhou's hand, Ma Xiaotao almost...

However, she didn't take the pill but looked at Bai Zhou with annoyance, saying angrily: "Good for you, Little White, you actually dare to play with me. See how I teach you a lesson!"

After Ma Xiaotao finished speaking, she pulled Bai Zhou into her arms and then soared into the sky.

Ma Xiaotao knew that Bai Zhou was "afraid of heights," so this time she flew directly to an altitude of a thousand meters, taking Bai Zhou to roam the sea of clouds.

"Sister Xiao Tao, what are you doing? Let me down quickly..."

Bai Zhou hugged Ma Xiaotao tightly and wouldn't let go.

Showing extreme "panic."

He wasn't pretending; before, Ma Xiaotao had only been a few dozen meters off the ground, so Bai Zhou naturally felt nothing.

Now that they were nearly a thousand meters off the ground and still climbing, Bai Zhou was truly a bit afraid, afraid that Ma Xiaotao would throw him down...

Just like some people are born afraid of caterpillars, cockroaches, mice, and centipedes, even if their strength is extremely strong, it is still the case.

Although Bai Zhou's strength was not weak, at this height, he still felt a bit of psychological discomfort, and his legs were a bit weak.

"Hmm! Now you're afraid, right!! Let you little rascal play with me!" Ma Xiaotao was very proud.

Immediately after, at an altitude of a thousand meters, she folded her wings directly and took Bai Zhou into a free fall.

"Holy crap!!" Bai Zhou was startled by Ma Xiaotao and hurriedly pulled his head out.

"Sister Xiao Tao, what are you doing? I'm afraid..." This time Bai Zhou was truly afraid, his legs a bit weak.

"My good younger brother, what are you afraid of? I'm protecting you~" Ma Xiaotao smiled wickedly and hugged Bai Zhou tightly.

The next moment.

"Splash—"

The two fell into the water together, splashing waves dozens of meters high.

"Gurgle..."

"Gurgle..."

"Splash—"

Soon, Bai Zhou and Ma Xiaotao surfaced together.

"Sister Xiao Tao, you're going to kill me..." Bai Zhou wiped his face and was speechless.

"Cackle~ I can't bear to kill you. If you die, who will I ask for the Extreme Ice Pill?"

Seeing Bai Zhou in such a sorry state, Ma Xiaotao finally vented her anger and covered her mouth with a light laugh.

However, at this moment, Ma Xiaotao was also soaking wet all over.

Her fiery red dress was soaked by the water.

It clung tightly to Ma Xiaotao's body, outlining her huge "capital."

It made Bai Zhou's eyes go straight.

"You little rascal, where are you looking!" Ma Xiaotao noticed Bai Zhou's gaze, her face flushed slightly, her smile vanished instantly, and she scolded softly.

"Sister Xiao Tao, I don't know how to swim. Pull me back."

Bai Zhou splashed a few times to get in front of Ma Xiaotao and hugged her directly.

Ma Xiaotao:...

"Let go, you bastard! You call this not knowing how to swim!!" Ma Xiaotao reached out and pressed on Bai Zhou's face, wanting to push him away.

She really couldn't stand Bai Zhou telling such a lie with his eyes open, and he was taking advantage of her so openly; it was too hateful.

But Bai Zhou's face was thick-skinned, and he clung to Ma Xiaotao and wouldn't let go.

"I'm afraid of you..."

Ma Xiaotao felt helpless and had to spread her wings and take off directly.

After all, this was the center of the Sea God Lake; it was impossible to swim to the Inner Court.

If she were alone, Ma Xiaotao could completely dry herself with Phoenix flames.

But now that Bai Zhou was clinging to her, she was afraid of hurting him, so she could only go back first.

Ma Xiaotao's speed was very fast, and within a few minutes, she returned to her small cabin.

"You wait a moment; I'm going to take a shower first." As soon as Ma Xiaotao returned home, she rushed into the bathroom.

Although the water in the Sea God Lake was very clean, since she was home, Ma Xiaotao naturally wanted to take a shower to feel more comfortable.

"Then what about me?"

Bai Zhou looked at his soaked clothes and was speechless.

"Go rinse off in the courtyard outside yourself; there's a garden hose there."

Ma Xiaotao's voice came from the bathroom, and soon the sound of splashing water followed.

Bai Zhou:...

Bai Zhou felt helpless and went directly to the courtyard, throwing away all his wet clothes and pants.

He was acting like a hooligan.

He picked up the garden hose directly to take a shower.

Yeah, this water was quite cool, and it was also very clean.

Not only that, Bai Zhou also discovered that the window of Ma Xiaotao's bathroom was right next to him. When Bai Zhou showered, he could hear the splashing sound in Ma Xiaotao's bathroom.

Through the frosted glass, a figure could be clearly seen.

Ma Xiaotao seemed to have sensed something, walked directly to the window, tilted her head, opened a slit, and revealed only one eye...

Meeting Bai Zhou's gaze.

1 second.

2 seconds.

"Ah!!! Little White, you bastard! Why aren't you wearing clothes when you shower!!" Ma Xiaotao slammed the window shut and let out a scream.

"You're the one who told me to shower here? You're peeking and you still have the nerve to talk??" Bai Zhou was speechless.

"Woooo... I'm not clean anymore..."

Ma Xiaotao covered her face, and the image of what she had just seen kept appearing in her mind; her face instantly turned red to the roots of her ears.

Ma Xiaotao turned the shower to cold water, wanting to calm herself down, but no matter how she calmed down, the image of Bai Zhou acting like a hooligan kept appearing in her mind, lingering...

Bai Zhou finished quickly and returned to the room.

Ma Xiaotao, on the other hand, was dawdling, taking more than an hour.

"Click—"

The bathroom door opened, and Ma Xiaotao, wearing white pajamas, walked out with her snow-white, slender long legs. The loose pajamas couldn't hide her proud figure.

Her fiery red curly hair, dried by the flames, was draped behind her, looking a bit lazy.
