Chapter 224: Why Didn’t You Inform Me?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The phoenix jumped and looked at Blackie strangely. “You’re a demon, too?”
‘How did I miss that?’
“No, I’m a dog.” Blackie shook its head. “I need to make an introduction to you. Listen carefully and make notes. Study it from time to time. It’s very important.
“I’m an ordinary black dog, and the Nine-Tailed Fox is an ordinary woman. That’s just a chicken who lays eggs, and the things beside you are the refrigerator and the rockery. The thing in the water is the compressor. The two balls there are the television and the lighter…”
The Fire Phoenix listened and rolled its eyes. What organization was it about to join?
It was trembling inside, but it still listened closely.
It did not have a choice. If it wanted to survive, it had to play along with the expert.
Inside the room.
Li Nianfan hugged the small bowl in his hands. He was very excited.
This was the blood of a phoenix!
He would be able to live for a thousand years while retaining his youth forever!
This must be the opportunity everyone dreamt of!
Li Nianfan felt that this was the biggest blessing he had ever gained since his trip to this Immortal Realm.
He looked at Daji with excitement and said, “Daji, this is the blood of the phoenix. It’ll retain our youth for a thousand years! Let’s drink it. Our lives will be sorted after this!”
“Really?” Daji looked surprised. “Then, let’s drink it right away, Mr. Li.”
“Hmm! We’ll drink it together!” Li Nianfan nodded.
Daji was so beautiful. The thought of her retaining her beauty and accompanying him for a thousand years made him feel extremely fulfilled.
He hugged the bowl and suddenly looked perplexed.
Oh no! He seemed to have forgotten the way to consume it.
Was he supposed to drink it raw or boil it first? If he boiled it, would the nutrients remain? Would it become less effective?
Also, how much did he have to drink for it to work?
Running back to ask how to drink it did not seem right either. Would he say ‘How should we drink your blood’? He might as well ask to be killed!
It was a phoenix that was not to be angered!
Whatever…
Li Nianfan made up his mind. He would drink it raw!
“Daji, I’ll taste it for you.” He held onto the bowl and gulped down a mouthful of blood. It must have worked.
Hmm, it did not taste bloody. Instead, it tasted quite well—it was sweet!
Li Nianfan handed the bowl to Daji. “You try it.”
Daji held onto the bowl and took a sip. She wiped away some blood that was on the corner of her lips. “Oh, Mr. Li, can I have the remaining?”
Li Nianfan looked at her strangely. “You want it?”
“Hmm, I’d like to give it to my sister.” Daji nodded.
“Your sister…” Li Nianfan recalled. “The Six-Tailed Fox from the other day?”
Daji said, “Yeah, the last time I saw it, it already had eight tails. This phoenix blood might be able to help it.”
Li Nianfan was surprised. “The little fox already has its eighth tail?”
So, foxes could grow more tails?
So, if it grew another tail, it would become a Nine-Tailed Fox?
Gasp…
There was such a bigshot hidden by his side?
Without hesitation, he said, “Give it! Give it everything! Don’t give up on your sister!”
Li Nianfan did not know exactly how powerful the Nine-Tailed Fox was in the Immortal Realm, but he had heard a lot of legends about it. Becoming friends with it would be the right thing to do!
Suddenly, he realized he was not doing so badly in the Immortal Realm!
He met Zhou Yunwu, an ordinary man who had the duty to rule all the ordinary men! The Emperor was his brother!
He also knew quite a few cultivating bigshots. He was doing well.
He had met a Nine-Tail Fox and now, he met a phoenix!
Furthermore, he could now live for a thousand years!
Everything turned out well!
As expected, meeting bigshots was the key to survival!
It seemed that he had to work harder in the future to meet more bigshots. With that, his thousand years would be very comfortable.
When he walked out of the room, Xiao Bai had already prepared some breakfast dishes and served them on the dining table.
“My dearest master, please, enjoy.”
Li Nianfan nodded. He looked at the breakfast dishes and frowned.
They were the usual—sweet potato porridge, steamed buns, and a few side dishes.
Li Nianfan was not a fussy man. These would usually be enough but…life was different now!
He had a phoenix bigshot by his side!
If it watched him eat, it did not seem right. If the meal was too simple, it did not seem right either!
If he could please this bigshot and make it stay, he would have no fear in this realm!
Li Nianfan’s brain was working at the quickest speed. If he ran toward the phoenix and pleased it, it might not work. It might even work against him. He had to lick its boots smartly.
The best trick would be food!
The first meal was the key!
“Xiao Bai, this meal is too simple.” Li Nianfan stole a glimpse at the bigshot phoenix. He said with a serious tone, “Our meals must be the best of the best. A simple meal is out of our style.”
As he spoke, he picked up the dishes and walked out to the yard to pour them all into the forest.
He wanted to make a more hearty meal to attract the bigshot phoenix’s stomach!
In the forest, a few figures walked out gradually.
They were a few demons.
They were put on duty to help the expert solve some potential troubles. This was to prevent ignorant beings from affecting the expert’s mood.
This was a very good job. From time to time, he would throw out some leftovers or fruit peels. These were worldly treasures to the demons here.
A Goat Demon’s eyes lit up. It cried out excitedly, “That’s the expert’s food! The expert poured out his food!”
“Am I mistaken? There’s so much food left?”
“Boar Demon King ate a cabbage from the expert and instantly had a breakthrough. This is a whole pot of porridge!”
Gasp…
Instantly, the demons trembled with excitement. They all rushed toward the food.
Gulp! Gulp!
“Argh! So yummy! So delicious!”
“There’s such delicious food in the world. I can’t hold it in anymore. Waaa….”
“I got so lucky! I got so lucky today!”
Gulp! Gulp!
“Big opportunity! Big chance! I feel like I’m flying!”
Meanwhile, the Boar Demon came back with a few other demons to patrol the area. When they saw this, their faces changed and their eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
“That… That’s…a whole meal?!”
Swash!
Without hesitation, they all rushed toward it.
It growled, “What’s going on? Why didn’t you inform me about it?”
“Get out of the way! Let me have some!”
“Why are you pushing me! I’m your boss! Get up! Make space for me!”
“I saw this cabbage first! What are you doing? Do you still want to live?”
Gulp! Gulp…
