"Yaoyao, I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"
Xiaocao's voice rang out, her tone making it impossible for Lin Yao to discern her true emotions.
"Let's hear the good news first." Lin Yao sighed inwardly and made his choice. He thought to himself that Xiao Cao was becoming more and more like a person. Now she even knew how to hide her emotions. The more she progressed, the more he would have to endure the torment of ice and fire.
Because, on the one hand, I am happy for Xiaocao's progress, but on the other hand, I have to accept that there is a person living in my body, a living person, and a woman!
“Alright.” Little Grass’s tone instantly became incredibly cheerful. “The good news is that, through my extraordinary, intelligent, and tireless research day and night, I have found a way to rapidly improve Old Bat’s strength. If the conditions are right, he could even directly enter the ranks of Marquis and Duke, and perhaps even Prince.”
Lin Yao didn't notice the idioms that Xiao Cao used carelessly; instead, the meaning behind the words gave him a big surprise.
"real?!"
Lin Yao exclaimed in disbelief, even letting out a shout involuntarily, which caused the somewhat shocked Earl Witte to quickly glance at him. Then he swiftly turned his head to look at the basement door.
Earl Witte was no less shocked than Lin Yao, and perhaps even more so.
Because Earl Witte had just experienced the most shocking thing in his life, and even suspected that Lin Yao was a vampire emperor. The legendary thing that only vampire emperors could directly improve the strength of their descendants had actually happened to him. Lin Yao, who had obviously improved his strength, was still refining pills without any regard for the consequences. He must be an emperor to have improved his strength so easily.
At this moment, Earl Witte placed Lin Yao in the highest position in his heart, worshipping him, but dared not express any opinion, or even show any surprise, because Lin Yao had not spoken, and he dared not disturb him, even though he could not understand what magical thing Lin Yao was doing.
Lin Yao understood perfectly well what it meant to rapidly enhance Earl Witte's strength. It meant that he could obtain more "human core power," which would allow his parents, grandparents, and even the Yi family and Xia Yuwen to gain greater strength.
Although the final performance of "human nuclear force" has not yet been fully tested, it can at least give the body the strength and ability to withstand ordinary bullets, which is already incredible, which is why Lin Yao was overjoyed.
"Of course it's true. When have you ever seen me lie?" Xiaocao's tone was very dissatisfied, with a sense of grievance at being questioned.
"No, no, I don't doubt what Xiaocao said, I just find it hard to believe," Lin Yao immediately reassured her. He knew that Xiaocao, like Xiaoguli, was easily calmed down.
"Are you done being happy? Now that you're done, I'll tell you some bad news. Do you want to hear it?"
"Of course, go ahead and tell me, I can handle it." Lin Yao immediately straightened his chest.
"Well... there are only two things that can enhance a bat's strength." Little Grass's tone became hesitant, as if she couldn't bear to tell Lin Yao.
One type is 'Nian Nian Dan'.
"Ah!" Before Xiaocao could finish speaking, Lin Yao exclaimed again, "'Year-Ren Dan'?! That won't do! Absolutely not!"
"I think it's not enough, how could I let this bat have it? Absolutely not! I'd rather drain all his 'essence' from his body than give him the 'Yearly Pill'!"
"Of course, that's what I thought too. I only tested a tiny bit of the 'Year After Year Pill' energy and found that it stimulated a lot of bat blood essence. The effect was really amazing."
Lin Yao could understand what Xiao Cao was saying. The "White Cloud Pill," which was effective for normal people and could kill viruses, remove blood stasis, and save lives, was a deadly poison for vampires. This showed that vampires were completely different from humans.
But now, regarding the "Yearly Pill" with its extremely powerful 'vital energy' being effective against vampires, Lin Yao believes that, after all, any living being needs the support of 'vital energy.' Otherwise, it would just be an inanimate object.
However, the "Year-Round Pill" is too precious, so precious that there is no more after this one. Lin Yao himself only has forty-six pills now, how could he possibly supply them to Witt? Even if it could help Witt improve his strength, he would not do it, because the essence blood in Witt's body is already almost enough for Lin Yao to use. If it were only provided to his parents and grandparents...
"No need to consider it anymore. We can't give 'Year After Year Pill' to that old bat Witt, absolutely not!" Lin Yao stopped Xiao Cao from continuing to boast, thinking to himself, "Is this really good news? It's practically useless news."
"Don't be anxious!" Little Grass said anxiously, sensing Lin Yao's dissatisfaction. "There's another thing that's also useful to him, the 'Year-Reaching Pill.' But this thing isn't that important, is it? Anyway, the Yi family members can prolong their lives without eating this stuff, so it's better to let it play a better role. That's the most valuable thing for Mom and Dad!"
The little grass also became a tempting little devil, chattering incessantly in Lin Yao's mind, making Lin Yao increasingly feel that what she said was absolutely right.
As his strength increased, the "Sui Sui Dan" (a type of alchemy residue) that he couldn't previously store in his body could now be collected by Xiao Cao. So, after arriving in Chengdu, Lin Yao took all the raw materials for "Sui Sui Dan" directly from the safe at Min Hong Pharmaceutical Factory and had Xiao Cao collect them all at once.
Lin Yao originally only intended to make a few "Year-End Pills" to reward the Yi family, but he was pleasantly surprised to find that Xiao Cao's abilities had become stronger again. At least her warehouse function had improved a lot, so Xiao Cao had the basic materials to give birth to Earl Witte, this old bat.
“Alright.” Lin Yao suddenly had an idea. “Little Grass, you ate the Earth Mother. You should be more sensitive to things underground now, right? Let’s go find the ‘Tai Sui’ ourselves. If we find more than 3,333 Tai Sui, we can refine a lot of ‘Yearly Pills’ and ‘Yearly Pills’. You can eat them then.”
"Yes, how come I didn't think of that?"
Little Grass agreed with Lin Yao's suggestion, "I fused with... Oh, right, Yao Yao, I fused with Timo, I didn't eat it! Stop talking about eating it, I'm not that cruel!"
"After I merged with Timu, I can indeed find the 'Tai Sui' underground. Although the 'Tai Sui' is hard to find, it's still better than me doing nothing all day. Besides, I used to be able to search for things underground for ten kilometers, but I don't know exactly how far now. I haven't tried it in a long time."
"Yes, yes, Little Grass is the best. We'll travel everywhere from now on, visiting every city, so you'll always have something to do."
Lin Yao ignored Xiao Cao's pedantry and quickly pressed his advantage. Now that Xiao Cao's job was confirmed, he really wanted to get more "Year-Round Pills"—he dreamed of having as many of these heaven-defying pills as possible.
"Should I start using the 'Year-Reaching Pill' to enhance the old bat, hmm, Witt's strength?" Little Grass proudly offered her opinion, having found a good solution, and she was quite pleased with herself.
“Alright,” Lin Yao agreed. “However, if Witt is promoted to the level of a vampire duke, will you still be able to control him at any time?”
"Of course! At most, we won't let him become a duke. Not even a marquis. Whenever his poison increases, we'll get some of it, so he'll never become a marquis, and we can get a lot of 'human nuclear power'. Haha, this method is too good."
Xiao Cao's words sent a chill down Lin Yao's spine, as if two devil horns had sprouted from the tops of both his head and Xiao Cao's head.
This is practically treating Witt like a blood slave! It's so tragic and inhumane!
However, Lin Yao likes it. He no longer regards Witt, a vampire, as a human being. He is willing to do anything that benefits himself and his friends and family. Although he has some psychological barriers, he can overcome and adapt to them. Maybe he will even come to love this feeling in the future.
Count Witt, who was sitting idly in his chair, suddenly shuddered. Something from who-knows-where appeared in his body. This thing was so magical that it made his blood essence increase rapidly. The pleasure was even more intoxicating than drinking the blood of a vampire count.
With his eyes closed, Count Witte reached his climax, his entire body went limp, and he fell from the chair to the ground, crawling and trembling, feeling the exhilarating sensation of his rapidly increasing strength.
Suddenly, the growth of essence and blood stopped, and the mysterious substance disappeared.
Just as Earl Witte was about to carefully assess the extent of his increased strength, he was horrified to discover that his life essence had suddenly decreased by a large margin, as if it had vanished into thin air, and the connection with his mind had been directly severed.
