The two words "oil slick" made Li Luo's smile stiffen instantly, this kind of word should be used to describe that dog Shen Jinxiu, how can it be used on a young man in his prime like him?

  "Mengmeng, you've really disappointed me. I can see that you're exhausted from cultivating for so long, and as your captain, I came in here with a kind heart to comfort you! How could you launch a personal attack on me?!" Li Luo said with a pained expression.

  Bai Mengmeng was rebuked and also became somewhat flustered, hastily lowering her head to apologize: "Captain, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to attack you, it's just that I didn't react in time, so I blurted out what came to mind."

  “...”

  Li Luo felt a bit suffocated in his chest, so your words mean that you actually think so in your heart?

  Li Luo put away his smile and handed over the water cup with a expressionless face: "Drink it all."

  Bai Mengmeng hastily and honestly took it over, sipping water little by little, her eyes secretly glancing at Li Luo.

  Li Luo shook his head, it seemed he had chosen the wrong approach. Being gentle and warm with this little girl didn't seem to work; directly making a firm demand was actually simpler.

  "Cough..."

  Li Luo coughed and said, "I heard from Guan Zhaodao that you, Mengmeng, have researched many formulas for spiritual waters and strange lights over the years. You even have a four-star formula."

  Bai Mengmeng nodded slightly shyly and said: "Actually, it's nothing, the formulas I studied are all under the Four Spirit Water Qi Guang."

  "That's impressive too, you're still young and have a lot of room for improvement in the future, I'm sure you'll be able to come up with even better formulas." Li Luo exclaimed.

  "Ah, thank you captain." Bai Mengmeng smiled sweetly, her pure and innocent face making one feel like they were drinking honey, so sweet it reached the throat.

  Li Luoman asked casually: "What about those formulas you've researched?"

  Bai Mengmeng replied seriously: "Those formulas were all taken away by our family, and most of them were sold to other Ling Shui Qi Guang Houses. Our Bai family itself didn't really get involved in the Ling Shui Qi Guang House industry."

  Li Luo heard this and felt a slight sense of regret, but it was also within his expectations. After all, even if Bai Mengmeng didn't understand the value of those formulas, there was still the White family behind her.

  "Is the captain also interested in the Ling Shui Qi Guang formula?" Bai Mengmeng's big, bright eyes looked at Li Luo.

  Li Luo hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "Just asking."

  He originally wanted to find a breakthrough in Ba Mengmeng, and get high-star recipes for Xi Yang House, but the price of such recipes on the market is extremely expensive, which may not be affordable for Xi Yang House at present.

  If it's because of his relationship with Bai Mengmeng that he gets the Ling Shui Qi Guang formula at an unequal price, then that would be too unfair to her. He doesn't want to intentionally deceive such a simple and lovely girl.

  After all, it's either here or at Xi Yang House, nothing of value can be taken out.

  With these thoughts in mind, Li Luo's previous eagerness also subsided a bit. He chatted with Bai Mengmeng for a while before walking to the other side of the refining platform, taking some materials and starting to practice the Spiritual Water's Mysterious Light.

  Li Luo had already been able to refine the second-grade spiritual water of Qigong, and during this period, with his own strength greatly improved, he also began to try to touch the third-grade spiritual water of Qigong.

  But this attempt failed thoroughly because the difficulty of refining Sanpin Ling Shui Qi Guang was almost exponentially increased compared to Erpin.

  Obviously, Li Luo still needs a lot of practice to refine the Three Treasures Spiritual Water and Qi.

  Today's practice, Li Luo was slightly distracted due to the twelve-section brocade and the Ling Shui Qi Guang formula, and several times when refining the three-product Ling Shui Qi Guang, he directly made mistakes in some of the initial steps, resulting in failure.

  Pfft!

  As a surge of energy burst out from the crystal bottle in his hand, the liquid inside gradually dimmed down, and Li Luo knew that this was another failure of fusion.

  Li Luo put this failed product aside, shook his head, it seemed that today was not suitable for practice.

  Then he bid farewell to Bai Mengmeng and prepared to leave the refining room.

  "Captain, let me help you clean up the crafting table." Bai Mengmeng said softly, looking at the messy state of Li Luo's crafting table.

  "That's troubling you." Li Luo smiled and didn't refuse her kindness, while in his heart he once again praised her, what a kind and clever little sister. If Yu Lang knew, he would probably be so envious that his eyes would turn into rabbit-like ones.

  Unfortunately, he was not lucky enough to enjoy Bai Mengmeng's cleverness and could only accept Bai Doudou's iron fist every day.

  While Li Luo was gloating, Bai Mengmeng had already helped him clean up the desktop and then saw that one branch of failed refined goods. She took it down with her hands and poured it into the waste water tank.

  However, just as the thick liquid was poured out, Bai Mengmeng suddenly smelled a pungent smell emanating from it.

  This smell, if ordinary people smelled it, would instinctively avoid it, but Bai Mengmeng was stunned, and after a few seconds of hesitation, she put the crystal bottle to her lips and took a light sip.

  Bang!

  The crystal bottle slipped from Mo Mo's hand and fell directly onto the alchemy table, shattering into pieces.

  Li Luo, who was just about to push open the door of the refining room and leave, heard this broken sound, and hastily turned his head around. He saw Bai Mengmeng standing still in a daze, her big eyes red and misty, as if she was about to cry out at any moment.

  There was still a dark green liquid on her lips.

  Li Luo immediately recognized it as the inferior product from his failed experiment earlier.

  Li Luo was immediately frightened, is this stupid girl out of her mind?! Does she dare to drink this spiritual water of failed refining?! What does she think it is?!

  If you have a problem with drinking here, can white bean spare him?

  Li Luo hastily took two steps back and anxiously asked: "Are you okay?"

  He took a clean handkerchief from his side and was about to wipe away the liquid on her lips.

  Ke Bai Mengmeng shook her head and dodged, gazing at the liquid spilled on the table. Suddenly, she stretched out her hand to scoop it up, but the broken crystal shards cut through her delicate small hands, and fresh blood seeped out instantly.

  Li Luo hastily grabbed her hands and angrily said: "Bai Mengmeng, have you gone mad?"

  He was really shocked because Bai Mengmeng's behavior was too abnormal.

  Bai Mengmeng couldn't struggle free from Li Luo's palm, her small face flushed red, and her voice trembling as she said: "It's bitter! It's bitter!"

  "Bitter?"

  Li Luomo was baffled, he stared at the scattered liquid, hesitated for a moment, stretched out his finger to pick up a drop and put it in his mouth, instantly his entire face contorted, as if some kind of beast's bitter gall had burst in his mouth.

  "Ugh."

  Li Luogan retched a few times and said: "Too disgusting, you're playing me?"

  However, Bai Mengmeng stretched out her slender fingers, stained with the dark green liquid, and placed it in her small mouth. She not only didn't feel bitter to the point of dry heaving, but her small face was also strangely flushed, as if due to excessive emotional excitement.

  "Bitter! This taste... although it's been many years, I still remember!" Bai Mengmeng's eyes turned red as she gazed at Li Luo, her voice trembling.

  Li Luo was stunned for a moment, then suddenly came back to his senses. Ah, right! Didn't they say that Bai Mengmeng had lost her sense of taste? Then how did she know this thing was bitter?

  Or rather...

  Li Luo stared at the dark green liquid on the table, his expression strange.

  This crude thing he came up with actually sparked White Mengmeng's taste buds again?

  Is there anything else as ridiculous as this?

  For a moment, Li Luo was a bit confused.
