The Dragon's Flower Vol 6 - Vol 9 (END)

Vol 8 Chap 275 - We need more water

"Those are easily made and cheap, not worth much money. I can give you fifty of them for free! I will get them now!" Qiang Laohu quickly used his teleportation skill and disappeared into thin air.

"...Wow, he's surprisingly a rather nice guy," Xiao Hua strangely felt a little guilty and her first impression of Qiang Laohu bullying Long Zhu was wiped clean from her memory storage.

"Hey, he offered it for free himself after hearing my offer. We did nothing wrong!" Heise quickly retorted like a scumbag rich kid.

"Don't your conscience hurt for cheating a good kid's money?"

"... Shut up! Stop talking and work harder!"

"Work harder, my ass! The water flow is too slow!" Xiao Hua snapped and flung a fistful of tea leaves into the pool. "Make the hole bigger if you can!"

"F*ck!" Heise turned to a male servant nearby. "Summon the Minister of Work over!"

"Did you not ask the Minister to quickly build the safe camp for the injured?" Xiao Hua had known of it thanks to Prince Heng, who was supposed to deliver the planning documents outlining what needed to be done by the Minister of Works department.

Prince Heng had gone to help out the Minister of Works with the building after sending Xiao Hua to Heise.

The male servant that was called by the Emperor trembled and lowered his head even more. Should he go now or should he not?

The other servants moved their hands and feet quicker, fear of getting involved in their masters' argument. In their heart, they were even more amazed by the Third Princess Consort for having this much guts to talk to the Emperor that way.

Perhaps the rumour of their Emperor treating Madam Bai Hua as his sister was true.

"That is not as important as creating medicine! Call the minister over immediately!" Heise roared and the male servant quickly ran to do as he commanded.

Xiao Hua frowned as she looked at the fleeing servant. "Why do you scold people..."

"Shut up!"

"Why do you scold me!"

"Why can't I scold you!"

"A person that only knows how to order people have no right to scold hardworking people!" Xiao Hua retorted self-righteously.

"Shut up! Someone, call two fire elementalist to come here! Have them drop everything and come immediately!" Heise ordered a nearby female servant.

The female servant bowed and similarly ran out quickly.

"What do you want from the fire department?" Xiao Hua stared at Heise, puzzled.

"To boil the water! Who knows how many bacteria are in it! It's pardonable to have people die from the black mist or severe injury, but it's idiocy to die from bacteria when their wounds were healed!"

Xiao Hua's hand that was tossing tea leaves into the bathing pool jerked. She had not boiled the water used to brew tea...

Boiling water was an action completely forgotten by Xiao Hua, whose mind had started thinking of brewing tea medicine as a means to purify the black mist instead of being a clean, drinkable tea.

F*ck! (；⌣̀_⌣́)

Hiding the guilt in her eyes from being seen, she lowered her head and focused on brewing more tea, a picture of a hardworking person.

The more water was added into the pool, the more diluted the tea would be. She does not know if the effects would be diluted as well, but just in case, she keeps on adding tea leaves. She has plenty of cheap tea leaves she had plucked from the Bai land, whose original purposes were for her training.

Instead of the Minister of Works that arrived first, it was the two fire elementalist that arrived first.

"... Empress Dowager? Princess?"

Towards the baffled Xiao Hua, Duan XiYing explained, "The Empress Dowager is the better fire elementalist than most fire elementalist we could gather now~ And Princess is an apt student of King of Munzhu~"

...Please pardon this young lady's defenceless mind from slipping down the dirty slope for two seconds.

"Empress Dowager, this matter should be left to others. You have pushed yourself hard without resting," Heise voiced his concern like a filial son.

"How can I rest when I could help. Say no more and let me help. Heating up water does not strain my body." The Empress Dowager strode towards the bathing pool, not waiting for Heise to come up with more reason to stop her.

Long Lian helped her mother by holding onto her arm as they walked. The princess offered Xiao Hua a small, comforting smile, with Xiao Hua similarly offered back.

Heise sighed since he understood they would be a great help. "If you are tired, do not hesitate to have others take over while you have a break."

Boiling water helps in killing the bacteria and also to extract the full benefit from the tea leaves, which will help quicken the brewing process. However, one would usually be more careful when lifting hot water and it makes the transportation process slower.

Thankfully, Da Bei was able to cool down the boiling water with his chilly spiritual energy after they were moved into buckets, and the transporters would no longer need to be afraid of scalding themselves.

Duan Xi Ying, just like Xiao Hua, does not have mastery over any element, so she focused on helping random tasks, but within reach around Xiao Hua to keep an eye on her safety.

"Your Majesty!" The Minister of Works hurried into the bathing room, sweating from his running. "This official deserves to be punished for being late!"

Heise bit his mouth to stop himself from scolding the loyal minister for being a fool to ask for punishment at this time. "I want you to have someone, possibly an earth user, to make the water hole to be bigger! Add in a few more holes too! We need more water!"

Recommendation corner!

'My time as a cat in college'.

The MC is a cat and her actions really want to make me pet her. Or the author is talented.

Sadly, the English translation is going slow, and I've not try to MTL yet. 

It's about the MC being offered to study in a prestigious college for special beings. It's a mixture of... beasts and cultivators? (from what I've read from the early chapters). The MC is a kick-ass!
