What's wrong with my master? Is he planning to feed me twice this early? Isn't he afraid I'll get overstuffed... Really... Jiu Li thought, a blissful annoyance stirring within her.
As she was thinking, she suddenly said, "But Master, you still have classes to attend later. Won't losing too much Essence affect your concentration?"
Jiu Li asked with feigned concern. This is a good chance to earn some brownie points with Master. It might let me get away with some mischief later without a scolding.
Su Yan spoke in a flat tone, "Unless it's a class that's very helpful to me, I won't attend any I can skip in the future."
There was only one year left until the anomaly. He needed to maximize his remaining time and evolve as quickly as possible.
Soon after, he continued, "Let me ask you, if I fed you ten times a day, could you grow ten tails?"
"Ah?"
Jiu Li's pretty face registered her shock; she thought she must have misheard.
