Chapter 240: Chapter 240

My own clean and tempting form as a Fox Demon, and just because I sat in a car for a bit, he’s already finding me dirty—absolutely ridiculous.

But, despite the complaints in her mind, Jiu Li eventually followed Su Yan’s wishes and cleaned herself up to avoid any further gripes from this straight-laced man.

"Sir, I didn’t bring any clothes to Jingdou, so I’ll just wear yours for now."

"Can’t you just Transform and create any clothes you want? Why do you have to wear mine?"

"Clothes created by Transforming are just an illusion. How could they appear out of thin air?"

Uh... That actually sounds reasonable...

Su Yan was speechless for a moment and just let Jiu Li wear his clothes.

After Jiu Li went into the bathroom to bathe, Su Yan returned to his bedroom.

He opened the System Backpack to inventory the spoils he had collected from clearing Demonic Plants that day.

[Golden Lotus Pistil x25]

[Old Tree Thick Root x20]

[Immortality Root x15]

[Giant Tree Grass Flower x20]

Among them, Devouring Golden Lotus Pistils could increase his Poison Resistance, so they were worth Devouring.

As for the Old Tree Thick Roots and Immortality Roots, consuming them enhanced character ability. This wasn’t very useful for grinding monsters, so they could be sold to merchants for money.

The School Flowers and School Grass, on the other hand, had an even more underwhelming Devouring effect. They only increased personal Charm, making them practically useless.

After all, my appearance is already maxed out, practically infinite. Trying to increase my Charm Value now wouldn’t even have the effect of gilding the lily. So... just like those two roots, these will all be sold to merchants for money.

The Devouring effect of Giant Tree Grass Flowers was quite comprehensive. Not only did they boost HP and Spirit, but they also increased Magic Resistance. Increasing Magic Resistance also meant better endurance against Spirit-based Creature Skills, making them essential to Devour.

After finishing the inventory, Su Yan took out the Golden Lotus Pistils and Giant Tree Grass Flowers from the System Backpack and Devoured them all.

"HISS, that feels so good!"

Su Yan let out a long breath, feeling greatly invigorated.

He recovered for a moment, then said with some anticipation, "If I can keep Devouring , sooner or later I’ll be able to use sheer strength to defeat enemies far above my level."

Suddenly, the door opened. Su Yan looked up to find Jiu Li, having finished her bath, entering his room.

He immediately asked, "Is something wrong?"

Jiu Li smiled charmingly. "Sir, what a way to talk! We’re master and servant, after all. Can’t I come for a ’deep conversation’ even if there’s nothing urgent? You know, from now on, I’ll be living alone with you. We can’t just live separate lives under the same roof, can we?"

To Jiu Li’s words, Su Yan gave a definitive answer, "That’s acceptable."

Facing the suddenly speechless Jiu Li, Su Yan said simply, "If there’s nothing else, don’t stay here and disturb me. I’m going to take a nap soon."

Upon hearing this, Jiu Li’s beautiful, bright eyes sparkled. Instead of leaving, she even locked the door.

Then, in a soft voice, she said, "Sir, Jiu Li feels a bit sleepy too. Why don’t we sleep together? I’m very professional at warming beds; the sisters in my clan all said I’m good at it."

Only then did Su Yan take a serious look at Jiu Li.

She still had the appearance of the mature woman she had Transformed into at the school gate. Having just finished bathing, her lustrous hair was still slightly damp. A pleasant shampoo fragrance emanated from her, exuding a seductive feminine charm.

"Why didn’t you change your clothes?" Su Yan noticed Jiu Li was still wearing the same conservative, mature woman’s outfit from before, not his clothes, so he asked curiously.

Jiu Li raised her shapely eyebrows and teased, "I’m not wearing your clothes, Sir. Are you disappointed?"

"Not at all. I just didn’t expect you wouldn’t change after bathing. You seem rather dirty." Su Yan looked at Jiu Li with distaste.

Jiu Li rolled her eyes at him, speechless, then explained irritably, "Who says I didn’t change? I *am* wearing your clothes right now!

"I already told you, the clothes I Transform into are illusory; they’re not real!

"And you have the nerve to call me dirty? It’s clearly your memory that’s bad!"

Jiu Li said this without honorifics, clearly taking great offense at Su Yan calling her dirty.

When she finally finished, Su Yan said, "Are you done? If so, hurry up and leave. I’m going to sleep."

Jiu Li’s emotions were quick to change. Upon hearing Su Yan’s words, she quickly set aside her dissatisfaction and said in a sweeter voice, "Speaking of which, Sir, you haven’t properly appreciated Jiu Li’s mature woman look yet. Don’t I seem to have the air of a noblewoman?"

As she spoke, Jiu Li subtly made her clothes shorter, making them even more devastating. It was a look that could inflict double damage on men.

Hearing Jiu Li’s words, Su Yan also took a moment to seriously assess her attire.

At that moment, Jiu Li still had the appearance of the mature woman from before. She looked to be about thirty-two, wearing an elegant long gown that exuded mature charm. This gown originally concealed her sensual figure completely.
