He Xi was startled and quickly opened another jade box. There was indeed a spiritual plant inside, but it looked even weirder.

"This is the rainbow grass. It has thirteen cylindrical leaves in total, and one leaf unfolds every hundred years. When the leaves unfold, they emit a sweet fragrance that can attract monsters below level eight and has the effect of promoting the reproduction of monsters. Dandan also likes to eat this, but it is too small now and has no fragrance at all."

This guy really can't stop talking about food!

He Xi was amused by Dandan's foodie nature, and couldn't help poking the eggshell and teasing, "I didn't expect that my Dandan has such a great ability. He even knows such a rare spiritual plant and can explain it clearly."

"Of course!" Dandan's voice was full of pride and intimacy, "Mom, Dandan is very useful. Dandan knows all the spiritual plants in the world. He will definitely be able to help mom in the future."

He Xi did not comment on its words. In fact, he did not believe that an egg that had never left the space could know all the spiritual plants. Perhaps it was because he had stayed with Old Man Xumi for a long time and heard him talk about things in the outside world, so his knowledge and experience were relatively broad.

However, she still touched his balls and praised them highly, until the golden light on the giant balls twisted around, and her giggles were both joyful and cute.

"Dandan, can you see things outside in space?"

"Not now!" Dandan said disappointedly, "But you can wait until I come out, so mother, you have to let Dandan out earlier, Dandan wants to be with mother every moment."

He Xi thought of the pile of magic crystals that it had just swallowed, and also remembered what Dandan had just said, "I'm not full at all", and his back of head began to ache.

How much spiritual energy would it take to get this little guy out! I am a pauper now, where can I get the magic weapon to make it break out of its shell

I always feel that there is a long way to go in raising this little guy!

In order to better adapt himself to this new body, He Xi recuperated in the other courtyard (actually a space) for another two days.

With the nourishment of the spring water, the wounds on her body healed quickly, but the scars left over the years could not be eliminated in a short period of time. When she lifted up her sleeves, she could still see the horrifying scars running all over her body.

On the morning of the third day, Nanny Chen brought breakfast with a worried look on her face. He Xi questioned her several times before she stammered, "The food in the other courtyard is almost gone. Our Yuan Crystals were taken away by Butler Li and others to curry favor with the steward of the Nalan Mansion. Now we can't even find a few first-level Yuan Crystals. If we don't find a solution, everyone in this room will starve to death."

Several powerful warriors in the villa were killed or controlled by Hexi, but besides these warriors, there were also a few servants and maids living in the villa.

They are of low status and are not like Steward Li and others who would bully Nalan Hexi, but if they are short of food rations, they will riot one day.

Nanny Chen saw He Xi frowning and quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, young lady. I will go to the Nalan Mansion today to beg the master and the mistress. After all, you are the daughter of the Nalan family, the master's biological daughter. He will definitely not watch you starve to death."

"No need!" Hexi sneered, "If he really treated Nalan Hexi as his daughter, he wouldn't have abandoned me for so many years without caring about me. He didn't even know that his daughter was sold to Taotie Pavilion. What kind of father is this person?" (To be continued)
