Chapter 337 I don’t taste good
Only after the door closed did Lu Ming let go of Xiaocai's arms.
Xiaocai had just landed and had no time to chase after him when a sharp pain that went straight to his bones made him collapse to the ground.
"Woo~" With a painful whimper, hair grew on his body, and his body gradually shrank and turned back into an orange cat.
Even turning back into a cat couldn't stop him. He stretched out his cat paws and waved them in the air a few times, only to find that he had no power left and was no different from an ordinary cat.
Lu Ming sighed deeply, and there was a hint of relief in his words: "Fortunately, I only deprived you of your divine power temporarily, and it didn't cost you too much. You can recuperate here with me. I definitely can't go over and help you."
Xiaocai roared unwillingly, "Meow!"
Lu Ming tapped his head and reminded him, "You should be thankful. If Nan Nan had listened to you and refused this mission, you would have definitely died if he had gone berserk."
"Meow." (I'd be willing to sacrifice my life for hers.)
"Okay, stop saying such tragic things. We have more important things to do right now."
"Meow?" (What's going on?)
"We must quickly investigate the main cause of the loss of Heavenly Dao Power. If we allow this to continue, Nan Nan will definitely be drained dry."
Hearing this, Xiaocai immediately perked up and jumped onto the deer's back, urging, "Meow, meow, meow?" (Why don't you go check it out quickly?)
"I know, I know. Look how anxious you are."
The scene cuts to a lotus pond.
In the pavilion in the pool, a girl activated the magic circle in front of her.
A golden light flashed, and the girl couldn't open her eyes for a moment.
Jiangnan's figure emerged from the shadows. Xiaomi jumped out just in time and announced, "Ding! A girl of destiny has been detected. We're retrieving her profile for you."

Comment: A worthless little demon. If it weren't for its luck, it would have been eaten long ago."
Jiangnan looked at Xiao Mi's comments and mentally communicated with it: "Your comments are too harsh."
"Just telling the truth."
Before Jiangnan could refute, he heard a cautious, tentative, and slightly trembling voice: "You, who are you?"
Jiangnan lowered his eyes to look at Luo Shiyu, who was paralyzed on the ground in fear, and smiled kindly, saying gently: "My name is Jiangnan, and I came here for you."
"You, no! Excuse me, are you a god?"
Jiangnan thought for a moment and replied, "You can think of me as your guardian angel." Then he walked towards the girl and tried to help her up from the ground.
Luo Shiyu was startled, and she climbed up with her hands. She ran to the pillar of the pavilion and secretly looked at Jiangnan, not daring to get close at all.
"Did you scare her? Looks like we'll have to slowly build trust."
Jiangnan was not in a hurry. He looked around and found that he was in a pavilion in the lotus pond, with only a bridge connecting to the shore.
There is a house on the shore, which should be the residence of this little lotus monster.
As her eyes glanced around, they met Luo Shiyu who was observing her.
Just a glance was enough to scare the other person so much that he hid behind a pillar and trembled.
Jiangnan smiled awkwardly and asked in his heart: "Am I that scary?"
"No! You are the most gentle and beautiful lady I have ever seen."
"Stop flattering me."
"No way~ I'm telling the truth."
Jiangnan ignored Xiao Mi's flattery, walked to the beauty in the pavilion, sat down and admired the beautiful scenery in the pond.
As the sun set in the west, she still had her back to Luo Shiyu, looking at the lotus pond.
I don’t know how long it took, but I fell asleep unconsciously.
When I woke up the next day, I found a pair of embroidered shoes at my feet.
Jiangnan subconsciously looked at the pillar where Luo Shiyu was hiding.
"Why is this little demon still here? Has he been watching me all night?"
"you…"
As soon as Jiangnan opened his mouth, he scared the other party.
"You gave me these shoes?"
Luo Shiyu poked her head out from behind the pillar with trembling body and nodded slightly.
"You gave it to me because you saw I was barefoot?"
He nodded again.
"Why? Aren't you afraid of me?"
"Afraid..." The voice was very soft, but fortunately Jiangnan heard it clearly.
Xiao Mi said disapprovingly, "She's so quiet! I fly two laps and the sound is louder than hers."
Jiangnan frowned slightly, and the gust of wind from his waving hand made Xiao Mi fall several times.
"No matter how soft her voice is, it's not like you can blow it down with a gust of wind."
"Okay, okay, I'll shut up."
Luo Shiyu couldn't see Xiao Mi and thought Jiangnan's gesture was a spell, so she quickly begged for mercy: "I didn't mean to call you here. Please forgive my faults and don't eat me! My meat is sour, dry, and smelly, and it's not tasty at all!"
Jiangnan was confused and asked, "Why would I eat you?"
"Because... because I have nothing valuable to offer you."
"Worship? Do you really think I'm a god?"
Jiangnan caught a glimpse of the embroidered shoes and thought of a solution. He smiled and said, "Clothes. Make me a set of clothes to match these shoes."
"Just clothes?"
"Ah."
"So what color do you like?"
Jiangnan looked at the lotus leaves in the pond that set off the lotus flowers and said, "Green. After all, flowers need green leaves to complement them, right?"
Luo Shiyu didn't understand what she meant and just nodded in agreement.
Another night passed, and when I opened my eyes again, there was a set of finely embroidered clothes next to the embroidered shoes.
Luo Shiyu was still hiding behind the pillar and peeking at Jiangnan's situation.
"This is really brave." Jiangnan muttered softly, grabbed the clothes in front of him and put them on.
A faint and elegant fragrance wafted into Jiangnan's nose. He lifted his sleeve and smelled it, confirming that it was from the clothes.
Luo Shiyu asked cautiously, "Yes, is there any problem?"
"There is a light fragrance on this dress."
"Sorry, because I'm a lotus demon, so..."
"It smells good."
"Huh?" Luo Shiyu was stunned. She didn't expect that the other party didn't say anything to show his disdain for her.
"The clothes smell great, and your embroidery is excellent. I like it very much."
Seeing that the other party liked what she had "offered," Luo Shiyu's face lit up with joy. She bravely stepped out from behind the pillar and asked tentatively, "You won't eat me, right?"
"Pfft! What a fool."
