Chapter 145: Dragon Aojiao Cries, Accepting Reality. Exploding Pill, Bomb? (Part 1)
"Is Daoist Lu Ming available? I apologize for disturbing you at this late hour."
Lu Ming quietly appeared outside the Moonseizing Sect and ran several thousand kilometers before taking out a communication talisman.
A reply came: "Daoist Xiao Ling'er?"
"It's rare for you to take the initiative to contact me. Is there something you need?"
"Indeed, I have a request, and I feel embarrassed to ask."
Xiao Ling'er felt a bit awkward.
After all, she was asking a favor, acting as a mediator.
This mediator wasn't doing it for free; she could gain Long Aotian's favor, which, although not for herself but for the Moonseizing Sect, was still an excellent opportunity.
Even Xiao Ling'er and Yao Ao had to admit that Long Aotian was indeed 'abnormal'.
Yao Ao had even mentioned more than once that she had never seen anyone as abnormal as Long Aotian.
Abnormally strong!
And abnormally extravagant.
Yet, he had never been killed and instead lived a very comfortable life.
A favor from such a person could be of great use someday.
Therefore, despite the awkwardness, Xiao Ling'er didn't hesitate and explained Long Aotian's, or rather, Long Aojiao's situation and request in detail.
Lu Ming listened quietly, occasionally exclaiming in surprise.
Of course, he already knew all this, but he had to play his part.
"That's the situation," Xiao Ling'er summarized. "Long Aojiao promises a favor in exchange for contacting you and hopes to obtain the Gu worm from you."
"If you agree, she will also owe you a favor."
"It's said that even if you ask her to risk her life, she won't hesitate."
"But..."
Xiao Ling'er explained, "I'm just the liaison. The final decision is up to you. Only you can decide for yourself."
"Mmm, I understand."
Lu Ming 'thought' for a moment: "A Gu worm that can turn Long Aotian into Long Aojiao is indeed...unbelievable. However, I can't be sure if it's the same type of Gu worm."
"That's not a problem."
"Long Aojiao has considered this possibility, but she's willing to give it a try."
"Okay."
"Then tell her that I agree to her request."
"Ask her to meet me at a location three thousand kilometers north of White Emperor City when she's available."
After saying this, Lu Ming began to hurry.
That Long Aojiao was fast.
He had to run quickly to catch up.
As for why he didn't wait here, it was for safety.
Long Aojiao was being pursued by Feather Clan powerhouses, including several in the Eighth Realm. He couldn't afford to be careless, or else the Moonseizing Sect might be affected.
"Then thank you, Daoist Lu Ming. I'll contact her immediately."
Xiao Ling'er also heaved a sigh of relief and informed Fan Jian Gang: "Aojiao, Aojiao! Good news, my senior sister has contacted Lu Ming, and he still has the Gu worm. If you need it, hurry to the location three thousand kilometers north of White Emperor City."
"Lu Ming will be waiting for you there."
"Three days!"
"Great!!!"
Long Aojiao was excited.
She even forgot to scold Fan Jian Gang and said, "I'll repay the favor I owe you. When the time comes, just contact me!"
"I'm off, hahaha!"
"..."
"So happy."
"As if she's already succeeded."
"Can it be that simple?"
Fan Jian Gang muttered, as he didn't really believe it.
...
That night.
The three phantom demon pigs gave birth simultaneously.
Twelve red-haired wild pigs were born.
A new breed.
No one knew their talent, but Zhu Rou Rong was very professional.
Not only that.
The eight treasures chicken and duck also started 'laying eggs'.
Just at a slower pace.
"Based on my observations, the roosters and ducks are laying fertile eggs."
"But the hens and ducks don't seem to have any desire to 'incubate' the eggs."
"If we store them for too long and they spoil, wouldn't that be a waste?"
"Eating them is not ideal either. The best solution now is to continue breeding—chickens lay eggs, eggs hatch chickens..."
"No, I need to find a way to get some artificial incubators."
"!"
...
The next day, at dawn.
Lu Ming had just arrived at the designated location.
Long Aojiao soon appeared.
Lu Ming looked at her, his expression strange: "Aotian...no, Aojiao?"
"Are you looking for death?!"
Long Aojiao immediately flew into a rage but then deflated like a punctured balloon, lacking energy: "Damn that ancient guy, Gu Yue. It's good he died early, or I'd torture him for ten thousand years!"
"Quick, give me the Gu worm."
"I owe you a favor!"
"..."
Lu Ming took out the jade bottle containing the Gu worm.
Long Aojiao took it, looking at the dense array of seals, restrictions, and charms on the bottle, and was taken aback: "What are you doing?!"
"I'm afraid."
Lu Ming said matter-of-factly: "I heard that you turned into Long Aojiao because of the Gu worm. How can I not be worried?"
"What if it uses some secret technique to escape and enters my body again..."
"So, sealing it is safer!"
"But do you need to use dozens of seals, restrictions, and charms?" Long Aojiao complained, her voice exceptionally pleasant, like a yellow oriole.
Pleasant as it was, Lu Ming's skin crawled.
He pondered.
What was the current situation with Long Aojiao?
A real girl?
Or a man pretending to be a woman?
If the latter...hmm!
But regardless, I definitely don't want to provoke her.
Boom! Long Aojiao attacked, seals and restrictions shattered, and finally, she tore off the charm, poured out the Gu worm, and carefully examined it in her palm.
"How is it?"
"It's a bit different from the one you took."
"Dragon Aojiao's heart raced, sensing something amiss, but she tried to reassure herself, "But Gu bugs are inherently unique, just like how people have different faces. It's not unusual."
"That's probably a normal occurrence."
"Then why don't you eat it?" Lu Ming suggested.
Dragon Aojiao hesitated, "Eat...?"
"Just eat it!"
"I'll eat it right now!"
"Go ahead, I'll watch you eat it."
"Ugh, you're so annoying!"
For a moment, Dragon Aojiao was filled with uncertainty.
For her, or rather, Long Aotian, this was an unprecedented situation.
She hesitated...
But she couldn't help but hesitate, as this matter concerned her future.
If it succeeded, she would regain her male body.
Otherwise...
She sighed in relief, suppressing all her doubts, and swallowed the Gu bug.
Moments later, she began to transform.
The most noticeable change was her height!
In just a few seconds, she grew several centimeters taller.
"I'm back! I'm back!" Dragon Aojiao exclaimed with joy.
Her voice also underwent a slight change.
"I've grown taller, this is my true height!"
"This damn female body, I'm so sick of it!"
She cursed, "Hmm?"
"My voice hasn't completely returned?"
"It's fine, it just needs some time!"
She muttered, her excitement evident.
One could even say it was an unprecedented excitement.
Lu Ming was surprised, "You really changed back?"
"Damn it, so you're saying that Gu Yue wanted to turn me into a woman? What the hell, I didn't deserve to die."
"You deserve to die!"
But soon, he sensed something amiss.
Dragon Aojiao was still in a state of excitement and hadn't used her divine perception to examine herself, so she didn't notice anything significant. However, Lu Ming saw everything clearly.
Indeed, she had grown taller, and her voice had changed.
Even her entire figure and hair had undergone transformations.
But the problem was...
She hadn't reverted to a man; it was merely a change in appearance and figure, nothing more.
Before, she was a cute and adorable beauty with a sweet voice and a lovely face, but also a tall and cute beauty with a mature charm, or in short, a loli with a giant...
Now, she was a tall and cool beauty with long, straight black hair, a queen among beauties.
In the world of women, these were two distinct types.
They were like two extremes.
But Dragon Aojiao had transformed between these two states in just a few short seconds.
Seeing her still caught up in excitement, Lu Ming felt a pang of sympathy and didn't have the heart to reveal the cruel truth.
However, he eventually sighed, "Aojiao..."
"Call me Aotian!" Dragon Aojiao emphasized.
But her voice had also changed completely, no longer resembling the song of an oriole, but instead, it carried the aura of an 'ice queen' queen-like demeanor.
Lu Ming sighed, "If you don't like it, you can also call me Huang Aotian."
"You... you!" Dragon Aojiao glared at him, feeling inexplicably flustered.
She had guessed something, but she couldn't bring herself to believe it.
"We have to face reality," Lu Ming said helplessly, "I wish I could tell you that you've turned back, but the truth is, you've only changed your appearance and style."
"Gender..."
"There's no change there."
"In other words, if I'm not mistaken, what Gu Yue Fangyuan gave you was indeed a sex transformation Gu, but what he gave me was just a disguise Gu."
"So, you're still a woman, not a man."
"After all... it's just a layer of disguise."
"Nonsense!" Dragon Aojiao exclaimed.
"Don't talk nonsense! This is just temporary, I can change back! I can!"
"I'm still changing, still transforming..."
"Still..."
"Changing."
Her face turned pale as she spoke, and even she didn't believe her own words.
She stumbled, almost falling.
Then, she sat down on the ground, silent for a long time.
Lu Ming moved closer and discovered that Dragon Aojiao was...
Crying?
That didn't make sense.
Would Long Aotian cry? Are you an imposter? But as he thought about it, perhaps it wasn't so hard to accept? "Men don't cry easily, but when they do, it's from the heart. Losing my brothers is a valid reason, and maybe my personality will change after becoming a woman?"
"But I'll wait for her to calm down."
"If I provoke her now, she might start a fight with me!"
"No hurry, no hurry."
Lu Ming waited for a moment, then carefully examined her, only to find that the tear stains had disappeared.
He couldn't confirm if Dragon Aojiao had cried.
But he didn't bring it up either, as it was Dragon Aojiao, and it would be insensitive to mention it when she was already feeling down.
"So, what are your plans now?"
"..."
"What does that have to do with you?" Dragon Aojiao asked coldly.
"Yes, yes, it's none of my business."
As she stood up, Lu Ming sized her up for a moment, "Your clothes don't fit."
"Do I not know that?" Dragon Aojiao replied, speechless.
Of course, she knew her clothes didn't fit; they were from when she had a man's body. Now, she was a woman, and her body had changed again, so they didn't fit.
Then...
She transformed back into the cute and adorable beauty.
Lu Ming was shocked, "What the...?"
Long Aotian, "What...?"
"This...!"
She transformed again, becoming the queen-like beauty.
Then, she frantically switched back and forth.
Lu Ming was astonished, "Are you doing this on purpose?"
Dragon Aojiao was almost in tears again, "What do you mean on purpose? I want to use my transformation technique to turn back into a man, at least to look more pleasing. But for some reason, I can only transform into these two forms."
It's as if my transformation technique was sealed, leaving only these two forms for me to choose!
The damned Ancient Moon.
That damn kid!
I him stank so !
Just...
Another burst of anger.
She maintained her seductive appearance, cursing even more power to her voice than before, not giving the impression of being overly cute.
This form seems somewhat off.
Lu Ming understood, surprised, "So now you want to transform yourself, temporarily disguised as a dragon? Just for a moment, right?"
"!!!" He gave her a glare, not saying a word.
Aren't you talking bullshit?
If you could temporarily transform back, wouldn't you be more worried? "Lying there, I remember, you were a guy, yourYourButI know you have concerns, but if you can't resist, might as well enjoy it."
"Impossible! I must have a way to resist!"
"At least you don't now."
He couldn't hold back any longer.
She suddenly thought, I'm so handsome, if only as a guy, wouldn't I be stronger?
"Even if I'm a guy, I know I can surpass everyone, becoming the best among them."
"You have thoughts?"
He suddenly accepted this identity, not caring what he looked like, and felt a different kind of temptation, not noticing it.
Just looking at her, he asked, "Do you know who I am? I am the dragon you saw, now..."
"But who are you, regardless of being a guy or a girl, you are the brightest and most outstanding among all. Dragon, and still, the most handsome and coolest."
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little sad, as if he hadn't been that happy.
Even so, he didn't want to let this affect him.
"Whatever, I will still surpass everyone, becoming the best among them."
He raised his head, looking at Lu Ming.
'You're good!' She suddenly smiled.
Feeling good, male or female, you are the most dazzling 'guy/girl', you must stand out, surpassing all others.
But to surpass all, you must first accept yourself, regardless of your form.
And at least, still have benefits.
That is your current appearance. It's the eighth realm power standing before you, not easily concealed, change another form, and...
In a short time, you might worry about being attacked.
Moreover, it's not a bad idea to return.
If you don't thoroughly accept reality, you might end up forcing yourself to death, exhausted?
"To say you have thoughts, I still do!"
He hadn't married.
But before traveling through, he hadn't saved the lost little sister.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Ming snapped his fingers, "Wait, I know a little about artifact crafting. I'll craft a set for you, and you can try it on."
"You know how to craft artifacts?" Long Aojiao was surprised.
Lu Ming smiled, indicating that he only knew a little.
At this moment, he was still not skilled in this art.
However, with Huo Yun'er as his master, this artifact crafting skill could naturally be shared. Crafting a set of clothes was not a difficult task.
But just as he was about to start, he suddenly paused.
"Why did you stop?" Long Aojiao frowned. "Craft it!"
Lu Ming spread his hands, "I can't craft without materials. How am I supposed to do it?"
Before he had this skill, he naturally wouldn't have prepared the necessary materials. Any artifact crafting materials he had were stored in the sect's treasure vault. Who would carry such things around?
The situation had caught him off guard, and he couldn't produce the materials on the spot.
"Materials? It's not a big deal!"
"I have them!"
"..."
"Should I call you 'Miss' from now on?"
Long Aojiao was speechless.
With a sigh, he opened his storage bag.
Lu Ming took a glance.
Wow, the storage bag was of the highest quality, with an immense space and countless treasures within. The treasures he had were more numerous than those of the entire Moonseizing Sect combined!
"I... I don't know what materials you need, but all the spoils from the people I've killed over the years are in here. You can choose whatever you want!"
"Apart from the materials needed for crafting clothes, you can also choose one item as a reward."
"Then... I'll take this Star Tear Gold."
Star Tear Gold, while not a divine metal, was no less valuable. It was also much rarer! When crafting artifacts, adding just one-thousandth of Star Tear Gold would increase the hardness and toughness of the artifact by more than ten times! And this piece of Star Tear Gold weighed half a ton. If it were released, it might cause a major disturbance in the entire Southwest Region, and even the Holy Lands might get involved!
