Chapter 1030 - The Crisis During the Delicious Breakfast

Panda Novel

This night was destined to be both a joyous and sad one.

The first time Ling Chuxi forged a spiritual weapon, she relied on her Core of Martial Path, Mind Training Chant, and Nine Gloom Absolute Meridians. Naturally, she slept extremely well.

As for Gongxi Kuangdao, he had finally found a way to save his clansmen from the demon dimension. He was so excited that he tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Lan Xinyu was also unable to fall asleep, but it was because she was too disappointed.

As for Feng Zijin, he continued to have mixed feelings.

The sky was beginning to brighten, and a faint mist shrouded the mountain ridges like strands of gauze.

In the camp, smoke was already rising from the kitchen.. The freshly cooked lotus seed porridge in the pot was bubbling fragrantly. It was obvious that some medicinal herbs and flowers had been added to nourish one’s qi and regulate one’s internal breath.

On the makeshift stone table, there were a few wild vegetables stir-fried green and tender. It was tempting even just by looking at them. The leftover venison from yesterday was roasted golden and cut into thin pieces. The sight of the meal on the table was enough to make one’s mouth water.

It must have been due to Ling Chuxi’s influence that Su Xiu’er and the others had become addicted to delicious food. They only had the wilderness yet Su Xiu’er and the others were able to prepare such a sumptuous meal.

“Alright, let’s eat. We’ll be on our way after our meal,” said Su Yizhi after everyone had arrived at the table.

Everyone began to manoeuvre their chopsticks across the table. Feng Zijin and Deng Zaibei also sat at the table, but they were too embarrassed to start eating.

“You two eat too. Don’t be shy,” said Ling Chuxi to the two of them.

“My Lady, please go ahead first,” said Feng Zijin and Deng Zaibei a little restrainedly. They knew their own limitations. To put it in nice terms, they were their guides. But if everyone was honest, weren’t they actually captives? With such an understanding, Feng Zijin and Deng Zaibei naturally didn’t dare to overstep their bounds.

“Let’s eat together.” Ling Chuxi picked up her chopsticks.

“Yes, my Lady.” Well, Feng Zijin and Deng Zaibei were actually a little hungry. Since they were just being polite to Ling Chuxi, and she had given them the green light, the duo picked up their chopsticks as well.

Soon, Feng Zijin and Deng Zaibei regretted hesitating. In the timespan of uttering a few polite words, half of the dishes on the table were gone. When they recovered from their extreme shock but hesitated whether they should continue to be reserved, the wooden bowls and plates had already been emptied.

The two of them stared at everything with their mouths agape. Their hands that were holding their chopsticks hovered mid-air, unsure whether they should fall back down onto the table or remain as they are.

If they had known earlier, they wouldn’t have exchanged pleasantries. Now that they had a good look at everyone, was any of them polite?

Su Xiu’er and the others were already used to such expressions. After spending a lot of time with Ling Chuxi, they had developed the habit of eating as fast as the wind, sweeping the food into their mouths like how they would clouds. Each of them was faster than the other. They had to be fast. If they were a little slower, it would be gone.

“Eat some food.” Ling Chuxi pointed at the last piece of venison on the table.

“Oh.” Although Feng Zijin wanted to be polite, there was no room for politeness now. It was already the last piece after all.

Feng Zijin split the venison in half and gave it to Deng Zaibei.

Fragrant! The meat was fragrant, the porridge was fragrant, the whole meal was fragrant! It was the first time they had such a delicious breakfast in their entire lives. As they ate, the two of them regretted it even more. If they had known that this breakfast would be so delicious, they would not have been so polite.

After consuming their halves of the venison and slurping the porridge, they could still taste the fragrance in between their teeth and on their tongue. They could not bear to put down the bowl. In the end, it was only when their bowls had been licked clean did they put their bowls down on the table.

And it was only then did they realize that everyone at the table were staring at them with surprise.
