"What I want is Extraordinary Food."
Mu Yun’s eyes narrowed slightly. Her draconic vertical pupil, shrouded in a thin cyan mist, reflected a hint of sharpness as she stared at Chu Yi suspiciously. "Do you have this ability?"
Extraordinary Food was a low-grade version of a Magic Potion, made from Extraordinary Materials, resulting in dishes with various buff effects. Even top-tier Extraordinary Food could attract the attention of certain special existences, as it was related to a Divine Sequence of the Food God.
"Proving it is simple. Give me the materials, and I can make it."
Chu Yi smiled faintly, using his Golden Body Power to straighten his back under the draconic pressure emanating from Mu Yun.
It was also time to disguise himself as a genius at making Magic Potions.
He did this to recruit strong allies, using benefits as a bond to form an alliance that could better protect Lias.
He was truly going to great lengths for his girlfriend’s safety.
Mu Yun crossed her arms, her long hair fluttering. A trace of wisdom flashed in her perpetually cold and sharp eyes.
Her snow-white throat bobbed as she swallowed. Coldly, she said, "It smells like a conspiracy. You don’t seem like a good person."
I even provided you with a meal, and this is how you repay my kindness—by doubting me?
"It was presumptuous of me. Goodbye."
The corner of Chu Yi’s mouth twitched. He turned and walked away, silently counting down in his heart.
The Dragon Witch, only half-satiated, rubbed her well-defined abs. A short while after eating the Bone Ash Bread, she felt the pangs of hunger return.
If he can really make Extraordinary Food, a trade might be possible.
However, a Dragon’s Mark flared on her white fist, transforming into a fierce laser beam that shot toward Chu Yi.
A terrifying pillar of energy erupted in mid-air, stirring up a rolling cloud of dust as it carved a deep trench in the ground. The pillar of energy landed nearby, blasting out a sinkhole hundreds of meters across.
Truly a Dragon Maiden with a violent lineage.
Chu Yi couldn’t help but wonder if this Dragon Maiden would stab him in the back.
"Why are you making food for me for no reason? What is your purpose?"
Mu Yun nonchalantly retracted the Dragon’s Mark. Straightforwardly and bluntly, she questioned Chu Yi. This display was to showcase her absolute power. If he was deceiving her or harbored any malice, she wouldn’t hesitate to crush him with her iron fists.
Chu Yi said calmly, not intimidated by the Dragon Maiden’s aura. His gaze shifted, glancing at the Dragon Witch’s pair of taut, slender legs. Her tight pants accentuated their graceful curves, exuding a slender beauty. Her pants were somewhat damaged, occasionally revealing glimpses of fair skin, crystalline and shining like freshly fallen snow.
But Chu Yi had no doubt that those powerful legs could kick half a mountain away with a single strike.
On the battlegrounds of the Alien Races, the physique of the Dragon People was the most formidable; they had once brought a period of despair to humanity.
"Are you saying you want to hire me with food?"
Mu Yun, still skeptical, pondered for a moment. A flash of insight lit up her mind, and her cherry lips curled into a tempting curve. "But, wouldn’t it be better if I captured you and made you work for me day and night, producing food?"
Stared down by a pair of beautiful draconic eyes, Chu Yi sensed intense malice from her. This Dragon Maiden actually wants to exploit me for free?!
Master Chu was indignant. No one, absolutely no one, could take advantage of Master Chu!
He instinctively drew the Blood Spear. The rusty Iron Spear cut an ancient, deep-red arc through the air as he remained vigilant.
Mu Yun moved faster, shadows intertwining. In the blink of an eye, she flashed behind Chu Yi, her long leg swinging like a War Axe.
Chu Yi activated his Golden Body, which shimmered like a great golden bell protecting him. The next moment, a crack appeared on it as if struck by an axe, just as the boot covering her calf kicked out.
The Blood Spear severed space-time, causing time itself to flow backward. As Mu Yun kicked, the Blood Spear ignited with Nether Bone Fire, striking her first.
Mu Yun froze, pierced by the Blood Spear from her leg up to her chest. Then, her image shattered like the moon’s reflection in a well.
It was actually an afterimage! Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on NovelHub(.)net
His Clock Eye had depleted its power and was temporarily unusable; naturally, he couldn’t discern it was an afterimage.
"Swearing allegiance to the great Dragon Witch will be your supreme honor."
"So, accept this honorable work."
A hint of arrogant ridicule reached his ears. Chu Yi circulated his Golden Body Power, defending against attacks from all directions. The golden light was radiant, yet against the tsunami of attacks, it was like a small boat tossed on a vast sea. His opponent, relying solely on her physical strength, unleashed power comparable to a Dawn Star. Each punch she landed dimmed the golden light further, leaving it on the verge of shattering.
And her aim was to enslave him, forcing him to endure endless exploitation and oppression.
But this also hinted at her desperate craving for Extraordinary Food; she was clearly being tormented severely by hunger.
In such exchanges, without sufficient strength to back oneself up, the weaker party easily becomes a lamb for the slaughter.
"Alright, alright, so that’s how you want to play it? Fine, I’m done pretending."
Chu Yi’s eyes turned cold. As a long leg swept towards him, he raised a hand that emitted a soft glimmer, as if enveloped by a thin mist. They clashed directly. A faint red mark flashed on his hand and then vanished.
Her crystalline hair fluttered, and Mu Yun’s emerald eyes held a hint of derision.
This boy clearly has ulterior motives, trying to use his cooking to manipulate me. Does he really think I’m some naive, busty fool?
The instant they collided, Mu Yun’s beautiful eyes froze. An electric current shot up from the sole of her foot, making her delicate body tremble slightly and erupt with a vigorous hissing of steam.
