88: Chapter 88: Limping Along!

Everyone present saw this spectacle and were dumbfounded without exception.

The unabashedly surreal special effects struck every nerve, leaving them all immensely shocked.

“This, this…

how is that possible…”

Among them, Su Changqing was the most astonished.

Although he had been saved by Xiao Man using her Extraordinary Power, he had been possessed by the Parasitic Spirit at that time and was unconscious the whole while.

Therefore, his knowledge of Xiao Man’s miraculous abilities was limited to what his father and his friend, Xiao Shun, had told him, as he had not witnessed them himself.

Now that Xiao Man had personally demonstrated her Extraordinary Power in front of him, it greatly astonished him and erased the last thread of doubt from his mind.

“Could this be…

the legendary Storage Space?” Xiao Shun exclaimed.

Xiao Man just smiled and did not answer but placed the steamer she was holding on the dining table’s lazy Susan, spinning it towards Xiao Shun.

“Here, eat this and see the effect.”

At this moment, Xiao Shun’s face was a picture of astonishment.

He instinctively looked down at the green steamer in front of him, then up again at Xiao Man, and suddenly coming back to his senses, he said in amazement:

“Ah, eat it now?

But I just finished eating…”

Speaking, he opened the steamer and saw six neatly stacked large baozi inside.

“This…

these are baozi?”

Xiao Man saw him pick up a baozi and examine it, and a smile appeared on her face.

“Yes, don’t be fooled by its ordinary appearance, but it’s infused with Dark Energy, unique in the world as of now.

Not only does it taste superb, it can also heal your wounds.

So remember, you need to eat all of them.”

These were the baozi Xiao Man had just impulsively bought for 5 points in the mall, though she now somewhat regretted her impulsive purchase, thinking she should have waited until tomorrow or another time to buy them for Xiao Shun to eat.

After all, he had just eaten, and fitting so many meat buns might really be a challenge.

However, since she had already bought them and not knowing if they had a shelf life, Xiao Man felt compelled by the principle of not wasting to slightly inconvenience Xiao Shun’s stomach.

At that moment, Xiao Shun was staring blankly at the baozi in his hand, which was almost as big as his fist, and his eyebrows involuntarily twitched.

This baozi…

is anything but ordinary!

Which bakery makes them so big!

He finally managed to eat one, then with a pained expression, he asked:

“So, Senior Zhang, can I eat just one for now?”

Xiao Man, seeing that one had no effect, shook her head and said:

“No, each of the six baozi has been infused with Dark Energy using a Magic Technique, they are intricately connected to each other, and you must eat all of them at once for them to work properly.

Not one less, otherwise, they may not produce their intended effects!”

Xiao Shun immediately looked as bitter as a bitter gourd, staring at the several enormous baozi in front of him, feeling a bit of warmth in his throat.

Ten minutes later.

Xiao Shun, with an air of resignation, stuffed the last baozi into his mouth and then painfully closed his eyes to chew and swallow…

The others, expectant, also watched him with bizarre expressions on their faces.

“Senior, I’ve finally done it, eaten them all…” he said with a forced smile, looking like a warrior who had just returned victorious from a perilous battle.

“Good, how do you feel?” Xiao Man asked.

“Hmm…

I think I need to go to the bathroom…”

Zhang Xiaoman’s face darkened.

As soon as Xiao Shun finished speaking, he suddenly stood up and rushed towards the door, exclaiming,

“No, no, I can’t hold it in.

Senior, wait for me, I’ll be right back!”

As soon as his words ended, he was already striding out of the room.

Both Su Fu and Su Changqing watched this scene and exchanged puzzled looks.

Five seconds later, the door that had just closed was pushed open again, and Xiao Shun burst into the room with a look of astonishment on his face—like he had seen a ghost—staring at Zhang Xiaoman.

“Sen, Senior…

My leg has recovered?

I, I can actually walk normally again!

This, this…

It’s just unbelievable!” Xiao Shun stammered.

The Su father and son were also roused from their brief confusion and looked at Zhang Xiaoman with incredulity.

Accustomed to the attention, Zhang Xiaoman posed calmly, though he was extremely elated inside.

Seeing Xiao Shun’s state, it seemed that the baozi supplied by the System truly had healing powers.

If he had been somewhat uncertain before, now he was finally at ease.

After all, unlike other items, this was directly tied to life.

Although aware of the System’s abilities, Zhang Xiaoman hadn’t been entirely tranquil without seeing its effects firsthand.

Due to his legs now functioning, Xiao Shun started to hop and jump around the room, exuberantly like a child.

Luckily, the room was spacious enough to accommodate his antics, as the incident’s impact on him had been much greater than on the others.

As a doctor, he knew all too well how long his injuries would take to heal.

Yet just six little baozi had him fully recovered in an instant.

This experience not only rekindled his belief in Extraordinary Power but also deepened the admiration stemming from his long-held aspirations, filling him with fervor.

The commingling of excitement and satisfaction burst within his mind, causing him to dance around uncontrollably.

“This, Mr.

Zhang is indeed a Transcendent, such skills are unheard of, truly like a miracle!”

Su Fu exclaimed, his face glowing as if he were the one whose leg had been cured.

Su Changqing was overwhelmed by a torrent of emotions.

Since watching Zhang Xiaoman magically produce a batch of baozi, he had been spellbound.

The subsequent healing of Xiao Shun’s limp utterly exhilarated him, leaving him beside himself.

Zhang Xiaoman observed their reactions, feeling quite proud inside.

After all, having shown off successfully, he wouldn’t mind seeing some effect.

Seeing the awe and admiration in Su Fu’s eyes was quite gratifying.

But gratification aside, there were matters that need attention.

He lowered his head and coughed softly before saying, “Xiao Shun, try to keep it down a bit…

I would also ask everyone to please keep this matter confidential.”

Just as Xiao Shun was nearly bouncing off the ceiling, he calmed down and earnestly promised confidentiality to Zhang Xiaoman, abruptly clutching his stomach and exclaiming,

“Ouch, I need to go to the bathroom.

I was just jumping around, and now I feel even more desperate, sorry folks, I need to make some room.”

With that, he hurried to leave, but Su Fu quickly stopped him and pointed to the walking stick by the table, uttering three words.

“Limp your way!”
