Chapter 80 - 74 Otherworldly Cuisine
...
The waterfall wasn’t straight; it had several tiers, with large rocks floating and diverting the flow in the middle.
You could also see some giant fish in the river, trying to reach the "top" of the waterfall, only to be smashed into meat paste on those rocks!
The remnants of these giant fish would eventually be washed into the valley streams, and at the hundred streams of the Hanging Valley, many valley beasts were waiting downstream for these pieces of meat to be swept down!
By a stream pool, a man had been washed to the cobblestone shore. He lay face down in the water, no different from a dead body washed down from upstream.
In the stream, a lithe figure slowly swam over and stood up on the cobblestones.
The River Girl’s eyes were icy, coldly staring at Wu Hen who was soaking in the water.
"Humph, you think you can make me your pet? Wishful thinking!"
"I detest people like you who think they are invincible. This is the price for desecrating me!"
The River Girl went over to Wu Hen and dragged him to the shore.
As soon as she turned Wu Hen over, River Girl Qiaqia saw a pair of wide-open eyes!
At first, she thought Wu Hen had died with eyes wide open, but then she noticed his eyeballs moving and even a sly smile forming on his face. River Girl Qiaqia quickly realized something was wrong, and hurriedly tried to dive back into the stream!
Leaping out of the water, Wu Hen grabbed the River Girl before she could escape and, using his brute strength, threw her onto the cobblestone shore!
"Boom!"
The River Girl fell heavily, like a long, silver koi fish, blood oozing from the corner of her mouth.
Wu Hen strode to the shore and stomped on River Girl Qiaqia’s back with one foot. A glowing golden saber emitting demon flames appeared in his hand.
"You think I would believe your nonsense?" Wu Hen said disdainfully.
To be honest, this River Girl’s tricks weren’t as sophisticated as those of a charming beauty.
He didn’t even believe a graceful beauty; how could he believe this demoness?
What kind of good fairy drinks human blood?
What kind of good fairy drives a man who provides for her to lose his way?
The fact that he awakened in this host to some extent indicated the original owner of this host had suffered greatly in life!
The River Girl wiggled her hips and tail, sweeping the cobblestones away, but she couldn’t shake off Wu Hen.
Only when Wu Hen put the demon flame saber to the River Girl’s neck did she stop struggling, her slender body trembling.
The River Girl’s face was full of fear and panic; she couldn’t understand how he had survived falling from such a high waterfall unscathed!
Could this Awakener have some unique abilities!
He was much stronger than she had imagined!
"The flower Ganoderma I gave you earlier, I put Black Xuan Worm Fungus in it. The fungus should be spreading inside your body now..." Wu Hen told the River Girl.
The River Girl shivered even more, feeling a discomfort in her abdomen, as if something was wriggling inside!
"From now on, you are my slave. If you ever harbor any disloyalty, the Black Xuan Fungus Worm will devour all your internal organs and then chew its way out of your belly!" Wu Hen continued.
River Girl had already been scared into convulsions.
Wu Hen removed the blade from her neck, but she was still paralyzed with fear, lying there motionless.
"Get up," Wu Hen commanded.
Moreover, she realized that Wu Hen had sent her to fetch the Waterfall Suspended Flower not for the Yuan You Ghost Flower but to lure out the Water Python!
He was after the Water Python!
Such a cunning man!
Gathering wood, struggling to start a fire, then skinning the serpent and slicing the meat into strips to roast over the flames...
...
Wu Hen’s host body had a decent foundation, but it was too weak.
The River Girl, after all, didn’t have much meat, and Wu Hen wasn’t really interested in her. He didn’t kill her simply because he needed a maidservant.
Speaking of maids, Wu Hen couldn’t help but miss his already well-trained Cha Cha. She might have been a bit lazy, but she wasn’t as malicious as this River Girl.
However, on the road, many trivial matters needed someone to handle, and since this River Girl had a connection with the original host, he reluctantly decided to use her for now.
"Here." Your next chapter is on empire
Her face full of soot, clearly not used to serving others, River Girl Qiaqia awkwardly handed him some half-cooked serpent meat.
Wu Hen took a bite, thoroughly ensuring it wasn’t poisoned before swallowing large chunks.
Though Yuan You was omnipotent and the physique could be enhanced with it, the essence meat of these Desert Dust Creatures was the best for physical improvement. After eating a large piece of serpent meat, Wu Hen felt his lower dantian brimming with energy, and the "anemic and weak" feeling that cloaked him largely dissipated!
Eating another large piece, Wu Hen felt his body start to heat up, like True Qi circulating through his five viscera and six bowels. If he exerted all his strength, this True Qi-like energy would be released, surpassing his body’s limits!
With his Spiritual Sense activated, Wu Hen’s appetite had increased significantly. Despite consuming serpent meat several times his size, he could still swallow huge bites!
"Magnificent!"
The taste was incredibly delicious, comparable to the texture of tuna meat.
Wu Hen realized that when he ate in the Desert Dust, it was merely to fill his belly, never savoring the food like now. Especially with his Spiritual Sense activated, the eating experience was entirely different...
No wonder Little Yi was a little gluttonous dragon.
These Desert Dust Creatures didn’t need any seasoning or cooking techniques, roasting them half-done was the apex of culinary delight!
"Are you not drinking the snake blood?" Wu Hen raised an eyebrow, asking the River Girl sitting beside him.
The River Girl was evidently hungry, but she didn’t dare speak, her stomach occasionally growling.
"I can only consume Spiritual Treasure and drink human blood," the River Girl said.
"You really consider yourself a fairy?" Wu Hen sneered.
"I..." The River Girl wanted to argue, to say she was indeed the River Lady, but seeing his eyes, she knew that her previous attempt to harm him had destroyed any pity or goodwill he had. Keeping her alive was purely because she was still of some use to him.
"Stop pretending to be virtuous. The host got lost because of you," Wu Hen stated.
A sycophant.
A sycophant who, in the end, gained nothing!
Perhaps the original owner of this host did treat this woman like a goddess, but in Wu Hen’s eyes, she wasn’t even worthy to lick his shoes!!
After he had eaten, nourished his physique, Wu Hen realized just how good the foundation of this host was!
This was definitely a physique on the verge of advancing to the Third Rank!
If it weren’t for the original owner wasting his yang energy to feed this woman like a sycophant, advancing to the Third Rank Physique in the near future wouldn’t have been impossible either.
A young man traveling outside, how could he not take care of himself?
Fortunately, he had taken over. With a keen taste and Spiritual Sense, he could not only restore the body to peak condition through diet but also help this host break through to the Third Rank!
