Chapter 40: Efficacy

Xiao Zi answered his question with action.

Swallowing the honey in her mouth, she stuck out her tongue and licked off the honey that had splattered around her mouth. Then, with a flap of her wings, she pounced towards the honey bottle.Ñ00v€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

Her approach was like that of a hungry tiger. If her friends hadn't stopped her in time, she might have dived headfirst into the honey.

Even a hardcore drinker drowning in a barrel of wine wouldn't be as intense as this little glutton.

"It looks like we don't need to worry about the taste... We still need to observe the effects," Hua Mi remarked.

Hua Mi walked forward and grabbed the back of the glutton's clothing, lifting her up to make it easier for the other six honey experts to enjoy the honey.

"Too sweet," Xiao Hong was the first to taste it and gave her serious assessment. "The taste of the Moon Dream Flower honey is just perfect. If that's a 10, then I can only give this honey an 8."

"Thank you for your feedback," Hua Mi replied, not too concerned about losing points.

Eating it directly would, of course, seem overly sweet. Most people consumed honey by mixing it with water, making honey water, honey yuzu tea, or using it as a seasoning on food. Some even invested a significant amount of time in brewing honey wine. Very few people, like them, ate it straight from the jar. To honey enthusiasts, this was akin to eating raw meat and hair.

So the "too sweet" criticism for honey was relatively trivial, depending on how you ate it. Hua Mi decided to teach them some advanced ways to enjoy honey.

"I prefer the Featherflower honey; it's even sweeter than the Moon Dream Flower honey!"

"Moon Dream Flower honey is tastier!"

"What would it taste like if we mixed the two?"

The judges' comments shifted, eventually turning into a debate between Moon Dream Flower enthusiasts and Featherflower enthusiasts. The debate became chaotic as both sides argued vehemently.

Only Xiao Zi stayed true to her initial impressions. Despite being held by Hua Mi at the back of her neck, her determination remained unwavering. She stared intently at the honey jar on the table, and her entire body strained towards it. She gritted her teeth, looking like a restrained beast.

So far, Hua Mi hadn't noticed anything extraordinary about the judges who had tasted the Featherflower honey. But as he felt the glutton's struggle in his grip, he couldn't help but wonder if this honey had some kind of short-term strength-enhancing effect. He didn't know that it was simply the power of a food lover.

The debate mainly revolved around the level of sweetness. As for the differences in taste brought by the different flowers, they didn't really care because they enjoyed the flavors of both flowers.

Hua Mi taught them how to make honey fruit tea, which would address the issue of excessive sweetness at its root. He only had to show them once, and they quickly grasped the technique.

After taking a sip, their wings unfurled, and the dispute between Moon Dream Flower enthusiasts and Featherflower enthusiasts was resolved without any violence.

"Young man, businesses from Huayu Town have never sold industrial adulterated honey; the ingredient list contains only honey."

"I came for the sleep aid effect of this honey. I want to know if the new honey has the same effect as the previous one."

"Boss, I posted a taste test video of your honey on a certain platform, but someone reported it for false advertising, and now I'm banned. T_T."

"Poor guy above, this honey's sleep aid effect is unbelievable; it's no wonder people don't believe it. If I hadn't sent it for testing, I would have suspected there was some kind of sedative added."

"Looks like the comments section is full of shills; the praise is way over the top."

"The fragrance of honey is unstoppable! The shop will establish its reputation sooner or later. I, Wang Goudan, make this post in my real name as a pledge!"

"We'll be longtime fans then. Hehe."

...

Hua Mi was exhausted by the end of the day. After posting the announcement, he was ready to go to bed. Before sleeping, he drank a glass of Featherflower honey tea. He had a very pleasant dream.

He lay on a grassy field with a gentle breeze, the sunlight not too strong or weak but just right. The wind brushed against his face like a tender hand caressing...

Upon waking up, however, he felt that the quality of his sleep was not as good as when he had drunk Moon Dream Flower honey. His face felt numb.

The outside world was still dark, and Hua Mi stumbled to the bathroom and washed his face. When he looked in the mirror, he was instantly awake.

In recent times, he had been staying by the Witch's Eye Lake, and although he mostly wore a hood, it was inevitable that he'd gotten a few shades darker.

But now? His face in the mirror was unbelievably pale and fair! His skin condition was even better than before he got tanned.

He leaned closer to examine it. His skin was smooth, firm, and elastic, like it was filled with collagen.

As a man, he usually didn't pay much attention to his skin. He didn't care about blemishes, blackheads, or anything of the sort. But this contrast was just too obvious. Even though he wasn't concerned about his skin, the difference was striking.

"The effect of Featherflower honey!"

Hua Mi immediately realized. Featherflower honey had a beautifying effect.
