She stayed in the Xingluo Market for two months.
Just as Su Bai had guessed.
Loose Cultivators were scattered sparsely throughout the market.
She hadn't sold many bottles of Medicinal Pills in total.
But Su Bai didn't care about that.
Lu Hong spent every day in the backyard learning Alchemy.
Su Bai, meanwhile, sat behind the counter.
Hmm, she didn't change to a shorter counter.
Because Su Bai found that if Lu Hong sat there, people outside could just see the top of her head.
And when Lu Hong stood up, it was just right for her to check goods and do accounts.
This was a counter built for a normal person.
If Su Bai were to replace it, it might be a small inconvenience for Lu Hong.
So Su Bai placed several layers of cushions under her own seat.
At the same time, she also prepared wooden blocks for her feet under the counter.
To increase her height.
Although business was a bit bleak.
Su Bai was currently looking at an egg before her with eager anticipation.
On the surface of the egg, the Dragon-shaped pattern was no longer blurry.
For the past two months, Su Bai had dripped a drop of Flood Dragon Essence onto it daily.
Now, it was time for the Flood Dragon to hatch.
She closed the door of the Danfu Pavilion.
It was temporarily closed for business today.
To prevent any accidents.
Su Bai also set up a Restriction around it, to block any aura leakage that might occur after the Flood Dragon hatched.
After Su Bai finished all of this.
A crack had already appeared on the eggshell.
The connection of the master-servant contract grew stronger.
Su Bai could feel that the other side of the contract was a very healthy life.
Su Bai rested her hands on the counter.
Her eyes stared intently at the eggshell, which now had more and more cracks.
Finally, the egg broke open.
A slender, green little snake, with a broken fragment still stuck on its head, emerged from the eggshell with wide, bewildered eyes.
It crawled out of the eggshell.
Looking at the small green snake in front of her, which was about as thick as a chopstick.
Su Bai revealed an expression of anticipation.
She carefully extended a finger.
She removed the fragment from the small green snake's head.
Two small bumps were seen growing on the top of the small green snake's head.
They were horns!
She had successfully nurtured it.
She had a Flood Dragon Spirit Beast!
"Hehe, looking at you, you don't have any feet, so you're not quite a Flood Dragon."
"I'll give you a name. From now on, you'll be called Xiao Qing."
After the eggshell on its head was removed.
Xiao Qing looked at Su Bai and flicked its tongue.
Seeing this, Su Bai took out a small jade bottle containing Flood Dragon Essence.
After the jade bottle was taken out.
Xiao Qing, who had used up most of its energy after breaking out of the shell and seemed a bit lazy, immediately became energetic.
It wriggled its body on the counter.
With wide eyes, it looked at Su Bai expectantly.
"Hehe, you little glutton."
After a couple of laughs, Su Bai extended her index finger.
Xiao Qing seemed to understand Su Bai's meaning.
It coiled around Su Bai's index finger.
Seeing her Spirit Pet so well-behaved.
Su Bai nodded in satisfaction.
She dripped a drop of Flood Dragon Essence for Xiao Qing.
The little fellow opened its mouth wide and swallowed the essence.
It shook its head contentedly.
And it seemed satisfied with just one drop.
Watching Xiao Qing start to yawn right after finishing the essence, Su Bai reached out a finger, stroked its small head, and then put it into her Spirit Beast Pouch.
The small Flood Dragon had been born.
It perfectly met Su Bai's expectations.
When she had just fed it.
She had already checked its Aptitude.
Due to the influence of the Flood Dragon Essence, it possessed a dual variant Spiritual Root of Thunder and Poison.
Although its current strength was only Low Grade, First Rank.
Its future was promising!
Su Bai looked forward to the moment it grew up and gave back to her.
As for now.
Xiao Qing's help to her during Cultivation was negligible.
Lu Hong and Silkworm Baby could grow so fast because they were in the same Realm.
Just as Su Bai put Xiao Qing away.
Lu Hong walked out from the backyard.
She was covered in dust.
Her hair was like a bird's nest.
"Aunt Su, the Spirit Medicine is all used up..."
Lu Hong scratched her head, a little embarrassed.
In two months.
She didn't know how much Spirit Wood she had burned just to fuel the Pill Furnace.
