White Flute sensed the sharp gaze from Si Lu, and instantly, a wave of grievance surged in his heart.
Wuwuwu.
Wuwu.
Lu Lu doesn't like me anymore. She actually glared at me and even scolded me, and it's the first time she's ever done that.
He felt so aggrieved and upset that his lips pouted, and his face drooped.
However, he also knew that he had spoken too harshly earlier, but he couldn't help it.
He was really jealous; he felt that he was inferior to Nans.
At the same time, he also felt inferior to everyone else.
This made him feel even worse, so he lowered his head, sat silently without saying anything, and avoided looking at anyone.
Si Lu looked at his downcast expression and sighed softly.
Sigh.
Having too many men is indeed troublesome.
But there's no helping it—who told her to be so shallow?
Forget it, forget it.
After all, they're all hers.
She thought about it, deciding to console White Flute later.
Seeing his pitiful expression, as if he was about to cry, her heart ached.
"Have there been any changes? Or do you feel anything different?" Cheng Mo asked Nans, curiosity evident in his voice.
In fact, everyone was curious. All eyes were on Nans, eagerly waiting for his response.
Hei Yao also lifted his head, staring at Nans with a puzzled expression.
"Yes, yes, any changes? Tell us quickly, we're really curious!" The big tiger put down the beast skin he was working on and asked excitedly.
He even shifted closer out of excitement, eager to hear Nans' response.
To be honest, he had to give it to Nans—this guy could really drink.
Though Nans seemed delicate and weak, probably the weakest in their group in terms of both physique and temperament, his drinking ability was unmatched.
The big tiger was truly shocked.
"It doesn't seem like there's too much change, maybe because I have a water attribute, so I naturally desire and resonate with water more. But yes, there are some small changes."
"How should I put it? Forget it, I'll just show you." Nans, feeling a bit embarrassed under the intense gazes, spoke up.
"Alright, show us!" Si Lu nodded, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Nans.
She looked absolutely adorable.
The big tiger blinked, also staring at Nans with anticipation.
"Mm." Nans nodded, raising his right hand.
Everyone's gaze focused on his hand.
In the next moment, a mini fountain appeared from Nans' hand.
At first, everyone was confused—this just looked like a water ability, right? But then, the fountain quickly turned into ice, becoming an ice sculpture of a fountain.
"That's it. My water ability can now turn into ice, like how water freezes in winter."
"That's the only change. Nothing else. My water attribute can now freeze into ice with just a thought. I've never heard of any other beastman with this ability before."
"In other words, my water attribute has mutated," Nans explained with a hint of helplessness.
He wasn't sure if this was a good thing or a bad thing. After all, water is water, and when it stops flowing, it becomes ice, right? He didn't think too much of it.
But he was still a bit confused since no beastman he knew of could freeze water like this.
In any case, whether it was good or bad, there was no changing it now.
The only consolation was that he could freely switch between water and ice.
Everyone stared at the frozen mini fountain, completely dumbfounded.
In the next second, Nans turned the ice back into water, and the mini fountain returned to its original form.
Si Lu was equally shocked.
Even White Flute saw everything.
Being well-behaved, he remained silent, fearing that if he said anything wrong, Lu Lu might really dislike him and stop talking to him or even abandon him. Just the thought of it terrified him.
He looked pitifully cautious, making him even more heartbreaking.
"That's the only change. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing, but this is where we are now," Nans said, looking at everyone.
"You fool, of course it's a good thing! You can switch between water and ice freely. How could that not be a good thing?" Si Lu rolled her eyes at him.
Goodness, this rabbit was too simple-minded.
"Oh?" Nans looked at Si Lu, confused.
Even though she said it was a good change, he still didn't fully understand how. He might be the first on the continent with this kind of attribute mutation. But seeing Si Lu so happy, he couldn't help but feel happy too.
At least he didn't disappoint her—that was a good thing.
Hei Yao and Cheng Mo also stared at Si Lu.
They, too, had never seen such a peculiar attribute before, leaving them with questions.
They had heard of ice attributes but never of water transforming into ice, creating a combination of water and ice attributes.
"You see, this is like having both water and ice attributes. Not only can you attack with water, but you can also attack with ice. In the hot summer, you can even cool us down."
"And since you now have an ice attribute, you're probably more resistant to cold. So yes, this is definitely a good thing," Si Lu smiled.
This guy was too naive.
"Lu Lu is right. It's a great change. You might be the first male beastman on the continent who can switch between water and ice. That's proof of your strong talent," Cheng Mo said.
"This indeed counts as a power boost," Hei Yao nodded in agreement.
"You're really amazing, I didn't expect you to master another ability," the big tiger grinned, his eyes full of admiration and envy.
"No, no, I was just lucky. And it's all thanks to Lu Lu. Without her, how could I have advanced so quickly or gained control over ice?" Nans said shyly.
Being praised and recognized by everyone made him happy but also a bit bashful.
He knew it was all because of Si Lu. If not for the special water she gave him, none of this would've been possible.
"I'm not the amazing one here. The most amazing one is our little Si Lu. She's the real hero here," Nans scratched his head with a smile.
