Upon doing so, the originally plain and unassuming "White Jade Bracelet" suddenly became enchanting and dazzlingly beautiful. However, Fang Yuxin thought about it and felt that this was probably the best place for it; otherwise, she felt that such a rose would be inappropriate anywhere else.
It seemed that the Mutated Rose thought the same, so it chose to be with Lan Re.
Having found a place to settle, the Mutated Rose once again demanded from Fang Yuxin, "Spiritual Energy! I want Spiritual Energy! Give it to me! Quick, give it to me!"
Its cries were loud, and Fang Yuxin had no choice but to give it a little first, then she transmitted her voice to Lan Re, "Lan Re, will it harm you by clinging to you? Will you feel uncomfortable?"
Fang Yuxin was worried the Mutated Rose might be like a parasitic plant, living off Lan Re, which was why she asked.
Lan Re transmitted back a cheery idea, saying, "Lan Re is fine, it hasn’t hurt Lan Re."
Fang Yuxin, receiving the answer, was somewhat relieved. But she still cautioned, "Then be careful, and if you find it bullying you, you must tell me." As she said this, she transmitted a strand of Wood Energy to Lan Re, delighting it to no end.
However, the Mutated Rose remained entwined around Lan Re. Although it hadn’t heard the exchange between Fang Yuxin and Lan Re, it sensed the Wood Energy Fang Yuxin sent to Lan Re. It was immediately dissatisfied, "Why does it get more? I... I only got this little? No, that won’t do! You have to give me more!"
Hearing this, Fang Yuxin suddenly understood why the Mutated Rose had chosen to reside on Lan Re. She felt somewhat sheepish, but still sent a more purified strand of Wood Energy to the Mutated Rose and transmitted to it, "From now on, you will be called Red Powder."
To this, the Mutated Rose didn’t object and even seemed to like the name.
Fang Yuyang looked at Fang Yuxin’s wrist where Lan Re and Red Powder resided with a strange expression, finding it hard to accept that the ferocious Mutated Rose had taken on such a cute appearance. If he hadn’t witnessed everything himself, he wouldn’t be able to link the two together at all!
His gaze made Fang Yuxin feel awkward. She glanced at him silently, coughed lightly, and said with composure, "Brother, we don’t have much time. Let’s continue looking for supplies."
Fang Yuyang then retracted his gaze, nodded, and stopped his wild imaginings, proceeding with Fang Yuxin into the two-story building. Thanks to Red Powder’s presence, the supplies in the building were well-preserved. The household must have been well-off, as the granary was piled high with grains, and there was even a vegetable cellar inside with sweet potatoes and potatoes that hadn’t spoilt.
Fang Yuxin gathered the items and then went inside to take the remaining usable supplies, then left the building with Fang Yuyang.
