Four days later.
“Chef.”
“Master.”
“What exactly is going on?”
“This… I don’t know either, perhaps it’s just like the Godfiend said. The Divine Underworld is the greatest of the Three Realms’ worlds and is different from the Mortal and Immortal realms. So, some changes is to be expected.”
“Is there a way to deal with it?”
“This… it might be quite difficult. This is the Divine Underworld after all, I might only be able to revert by returning to the Mortal or Immortal realms.”
“Oh, then what do we do?”
“I will do my best to be like before.”
“Oh, good luck then.” Shen Ying nodded and patted the little child’s shoulder. “The Divine World doesn’t have little animals like pigs, cows and lambs. I’m not used to eating here.”
( Boxno vel. co m ) “Yes, Master!” Yi Qing, who could only reach the stove by stacking two benches nodded forcefully. He held the spatula laboriously and said, “This Dragon Abyss’ spirit swine has a firm texture and contains enough fat. I can definitely make it taste like pork.”
“Okay, I’ll leave it to you.”
“Yes!”
“Oh yeah, add more chili, I like my food spicy.”
“Yes Master, no problem Master!” A certain someone swung the spatula with more force.
The watching black dragon: “…”
What were these two doing? Wasn’t that Long Zhen’s son who was still recuperating? Why did he run here the moment he could move? Why did he bring all those pots, pans and food ingredients for?
Moreover, what was with the Exalted Goddess? Not only did she not feel any shame, she was even holding a bowl and watching from the side! She was even salivating, hey! What was with that proficient commanding tone?
Look carefully! That person that is almost buried in the pot is a child, he’s a child! Doesn’t your conscience hurt?
“Master, it’s done!” Yi Qing stopped waving the spatula and used both hands to lift up the plate that was even larger than his body.
“Okay, let’s eat!” Shen Ying also stood up and picked up a few dishes who had been cooked. She was about to walk out but saw the dumbfounded black dragon standing at the door. “Long Worm, come and help us serve the dishes.”
“Oh…” The black dragon instinctively responded, then walked in and picked up the other few dishes on the stove. He was about to walk out of the door when he noticed a certain child cooking dishes. The child was standing on a tall stool and looking at the distance to the ground, his face contorting into a bundle. Could he… not get down?
The black dragon hurriedly put down the dishes in his hand and waved to him, “Do you need me to help you…” get down.
He had not finished his sentence when the little hand suddenly waved and produced a hand seal. A white immortal sword appeared under his leg and he rode the sword and flew forward. In the next moment, a solemn yet soft voice sounded, “Master, try this stir-fried spirit swine!”
A certain dragon who still had his hand outstretched: “…” Could the dragon clan’s children sword-ride the moment they were born?
The black dragon was stunned for a moment before he finally picked up the dishes on the stove and walked into the house.
In the house, the two of them were already seated. They must have been really hungry, because Shen Ying had already started eating at lightning speed and devoured over ten dishes on the table.
Delicious, delicious, delicious…
The chef who was seated at the side was holding an empty bowl, stretching his hand out to try and reach the rice barrel. However, because of his height, no matter how hard he tried, he could not reach it. He frowned and sat down on the chair, pulling the rice barrel over to him and painstakingly filled up a bowl. He then turned around and passed it to the person next to him as though it was natural.
“Master, rice.”
“Oh.” A certain someone shamelessly took it and started eating happily.
The black dragon: “…”
Why did this scene feel weirder the longer he saw it, wasn’t it supposed to be the reverse?
Two hours later…
A certain someone who was finally satiated laid on the table. As expected, the chef was a necessity on outdoor trips.
“This spirit swine’s taste is quite good, if we can’t find beef or mutton in the Divine World, we can find some seafood that we’ve never eaten.”
“Yes Master, no problem Master!” A certain someone sitting on the chair took out a notebook and wrote the word ‘seafood’ on it.
“Oh, that’s right, there’s also rabbit, chicken, duck and other small animals…”
The little child continued to note down everything she said on his little notebook!
“Don’t worry, Master. Although ingredients are hard to find in the Divine World and there aren’t normal animals like in the Mortal or Celestial world, I will do my best to find spirit beasts with the same taste.”
“Good luck, I believe you can do it.”
“Yes, Master!”
“…” The black dragon got more confused the more he heard. Wait a minute! Why did this conversation sound so weird, wasn’t this child just born?
“We do!”
“Huh?”
The chef stood up straight and proudly declared, “I am Master’s only disciple!” He specially emphasized the word only, and after some thinking, added, “All the way since the Three Azure Realms!”
“Three Azure Realms!” The black dragon’s eyes widened and he looked at him. “Stop joking.” He was a natural-born dragon, how could he have gone to the lower realms.
“Let’s put it this way.” The child replied with a straight face, “My Dao name is Yi Qing.”
“Yi… Qing? Yi Qing!” The black dragon shot up, “You’re the Yi Qing that the Exalted Goddess was looking for. Isn’t that the Invincible Sect’s… aren’t you Long Zhen’s son?”
The child’s little face frowned. He actually didn’t know either, and he looked at the person beside him.
Shen Ying then stood up from the table, looking at the chef who had shrunk several sizes. “I forgot to ask, why did you become like this?”
“This… I don’t know what’s going on either?” Yi Qing shook his little head. “When I was transported into the Divine World, I was already in that egg. Moreover, my body became extremely weak all of a sudden. Afterwards, I felt Master’s aura, so I chased it and she let me out from the egg.”
“Could it be… possession?” The black dragon’s eyes widened, “Ouch!”
Before he could finish his sentence, he was hit on the back of his head by Shen Ying with a chopstick.
“No.”
“That’s right, this is indeed my body?” Yi Qing nodded certainly. “Apart from becoming like this, my cultivation level, Spirit Root and meridians are all the same as before. This is my previous body.”
The black dragon: “…” Even if it wasn’t, why did he have to be beat up?
“Then… what happened to Long Zhen’s actual son?”
“I don’t know.” He shook his head. “When I was in the dragon egg, there was only one person inside and there were no other signs of anyone else.”
“What’s going on?” The black dragon was confused. The more he heard, the more dazed he got. “That was evidently a dragon egg!” It couldn’t have been empty from the start, right?
“…” Yi Qing fell silent, he did not know what was going on either.
Shen Ying poured a cup of tea for herself, then pushed the black dragon by her side. “Long worm, go and get… whoever to come over.”
“Who?” The black dragon faltered.
Shen Ying pointed at the chef and said, “His mother!”
“… Oh.” Indeed, if anyone would know about this issue, it would be Long Zhen.
However… even though he understood, why did those words sound like she was scolding someone?
