Chapter 332: Chapter 34: You treat me to bird, I’ll treat you to Jiao (a mythical dragon-like creature)
When Lin Jing saw Yan Wanfei, Yan Wanfei obviously spotted him too and immediately changed direction, flying towards Lin Jing.
Soon, Yan Wanfei neared the island.
At that moment,
Lin Jing finally saw the numerous wounds on Yan Wanfei’s body, and his breath was also very unstable.
His current state seemed quite dire.
Seeing Lin Jing, Yan Wanfei immediately grinned and said:
“Brother Lin…”
“Brother Lin, you actually advanced to the Golden Core Stage, that is truly fantastic…”
“I was ambushed by two guys. You help me block one of them, so I can free up my hands to deal with the other.”
“All right, they are almost here, just use this to hold off that guy.”
As he spoke, Yan Wanfei directly threw two third-ranked talismans to Lin Jing.
Lin Jing was instantly speechless, this Yan Wanfei really was…
From the beginning until now, Lin Jing had not even said a word.
Yet, he was assigned an interception task by Yan Wanfei, and even the third-ranked talismans were just tossed over.
And at this time,
Two more figures came dashing towards them on their swords from afar.
Seeing this, Yan Wanfei’s eyebrows shot up, and he said to the two figures:
“Damn it, not a word before attacking, and two against one at that. If it were one-on-one, Grandpa Yan would beat you so bad, you wouldn’t recognize your own mother.”
After speaking, Yan Wanfei turned his head to look at Lin Jing:
“Brother Lin, I’m sorry for the trouble.”
“You just advanced to the Golden Core Stage. Later, I will directly rush towards the stronger one. The other guy is just like you, at the first level of Golden Core. If you can hold him off for half an hour, after I take care of the strong one, I’ll come help you.”
“If you can’t hold on, just come find me, and I’ll help you escape…”
The first part of his speech, Yan Wanfei was brimming with confidence, but towards the end, he just deflated.
Lin Jing couldn’t help but turn to look at this oddball, Yan Wanfei.
Yan Wanfei didn’t seem embarrassed by his own words; instead, he wore a pained expression, looking at the two people about to arrive, and said:
“I really can’t withstand both of them attacking at once, old cow that I am.”
After saying this, Yan Wanfei then turned his head and asked Lin Jing:
“Brother Lin, what do you think?”
Lin Jing nodded and said to Yan Wanfei:
“Fellow Daoist Yan, rest assured…”
Lin Jing readily agreed.
That’s because, on these two who were flying speedily towards them, Lin Jing sensed a very familiar breath.
This breath, Lin Jing had just experienced not long ago.
It was the same breath that was on the Array Plate that had been monitoring him.
These two were very likely the same cultivators who had previously placed the Array Plate to observe him outside the island.
At this moment, while Lin Jing and Yan Wanfei were primed for battle, waiting for those two to approach,
Suddenly,
The two figures in the sky stopped.
At this moment, in mid-air, the scar-faced man and the man in the black robe stared at Lin Jing and Yan Wanfei on the island.
Especially Lin Jing, whose presence made them tremble with fear.
“Brother Li, on that island…” the man in the black robe said with an ugly expression, looking at Lin Jing’s all-too-familiar figure on the island.
“I see it…” The scar-faced man’s expression was also unpleasant.
“So what do we do now…” The man in the black robe turned his head to look at the scar-faced man surnamed Li.
“Retreat…”
“Together, the two of us are no match for them.”
The scar-faced man surnamed Li was very decisive. Seeing the situation turn sour, he chose to retreat immediately.
The man in the black robe nodded as well, agreeing with the scar-faced man’s decision.
After speaking, the two promptly turned around and left without looking back.
Even without the slightest hesitation.
At this moment, the two on the island, who had been tightly wound in anticipation, saw the demon cultivators who were about to charge over suddenly stop…
Just as Lin Jing and Yan Wanfei were feeling puzzled, the two turned and fled.
This move left Lin Jing completely dumbfounded.
He had been ready for a fierce battle, but before the enemies had even reached them, just upon seeing them…
They ran away…
Equally flabbergasted was Yan Wanfei who had been confident and gearing up to regain some face.
Following this,
Lin Jing turned to look at Yan Wanfei.
And Yan Wanfei did the same, turning to look at Lin Jing.
The two stared at each other in bewilderment.
……
After a while,
Lin Jing spoke up and asked Yan Wanfei:
“Fellow Daoist Yan…”
“Shall we, chase or not…?”
Who knew…
Yan Wanfei suddenly sat down with a plop and then said:
“Forget it, let’s not chase…”
“Let me catch my breath. That was really exhausting just now.”
Seeing Yan Wanfei like this, Lin Jing was quite puzzled.
Then, Yan Wanfei explained:
“Our Green Illusion Demon Ox clan is not good with speed. Those two were quite fast. I only escaped here by sheer luck using a Great Teleportation Charm.”
“If they want to escape, even if I wanted to chase, I would be powerless.”
“And you, just advanced to the Golden Core Stage, not to mention being unable to catch up with them, and even if by some fluke you did, to put it bluntly, you would only be delivering them a meal.”
“Since that’s the case, it’s better not to chase.”
It must be said that aside from being somewhat straightforward, Yan Wanfei was actually quite clear-headed.
Lin Jing said nothing more at the moment.
At this time.
Yan Wanfei turned his head to look behind him, to the roasted sea bird on Lin Jing’s grill that was fragrant and crispy, then grinned and said:
“Brother Lin, what a coincidence…”
“Every time I see you, you’re making delicious food; it seems you and my old bull are the same, a genuine foodie.”
“It’s just that I haven’t had meat for a while, and I’ve been quite craving it recently…” Lin Jing casually explained.
Then he walked over to the grill, picked up the roasted sea bird that was ready, and walked back.
Next, Lin Jing split the sea bird in half and handed one half to Yan Wanfei.
Yan Wanfei’s smile nearly reached the sky, and he didn’t hesitate to reach out and take it.
Then he said:
“Thanks, Brother Lin…”
After handing the roasted sea bird to Yan Wanfei, Lin Jing promptly returned the two third-level talismans to him.
Yan Wanfei took the talismans and then said to Lin Jing:
“These talismans were meant for that guy who wanted wine; if they were mine, I’d give them to you.”
Having said that, he suddenly seemed to remember something, then smacked his forehead and said:
“Almost forgot…”
As he spoke, Yan Wanfei stood up and rummaged through his Storage Bag for a while and soon found a green and lustrous bead.
This bead seemed to carry a trace of blood aura.
Yan Wanfei, holding the bead, handed it to Lin Jing and then said:
“This bead is a Flood Dragon Pearl from the Deep Sea Green Flood Dragon; it’s quite rare. Taking it can increase some Divine Sense strength.”
“I know you’re a Body Refinement Cultivator, and your Divine Sense is definitely not that strong; this Flood Dragon Pearl can help with that.”
“Increase Divine Sense strength?” Lin Jing asked, puzzled.
“Yes…” Yan Wanfei replied.
“This Deep Sea Green Flood Dragon is one of the few Demonic Beasts in the Demonic Monster Sea with a powerful Soul Spirit. The Flood Dragon Pearl on its head is the abode of its soul essence. Just by consuming it, one can enhance their own Divine Sense strength.”
“Moreover, I’ve heard that this Flood Dragon Pearl can also be used as an ingredient in Alchemy to make Elixir Medicines that enhance Divine Sense strength.”
“It’s just that Deep Sea Green Flood Dragons mostly appear in the Inner Sea and are very rare in the outer sea. I was just lucky to encounter this one.”
“Unfortunately, this Deep Sea Green Flood Dragon must have fought with other Demonic Beasts in the sea before, and its Soul Spirit power was severely depleted. So, the value of this Flood Dragon Pearl is greatly reduced and is not considered valuable.”
“Brother Lin, you mustn’t refuse.”
“Here, take it…” saying this, Yan Wanfei promptly threw the Flood Dragon Pearl to Lin Jing.
“Consider it as a compensation for the trouble I’ve caused you.”
Following that, he bit into the sea bird in his hands and immediately showed an expression of surprise.
“Eh…”
“Brother Lin, your cooking skill is not bad at all; this roast is crispy on the outside and tender inside, really delicious…”
“Where did you get these seasonings from?”
Lin Jing didn’t stand on ceremony, putting away the Flood Dragon Pearl before replying:
“I passed a small island before and traded for some seasonings there.”
“No wonder.” After saying that, Yan Wanfei didn’t ask any more questions.
Instead, he continued to devour the sea bird.
After cleaning, the sea bird weighed a good five to six pounds.
Divided between the two men, each got about two to three pounds.
However, to Yan Wanfei, these two to three pounds of meat seemed barely enough to plug a gap between his teeth.
So, after finishing the sea bird.
He took out some processed Flood Dragon meat from his Storage Bag and then said to Lin Jing:
“Brother Lin, since you treated me to the bird, let me treat you to the Flood Dragon.”
Lin Jing froze for a moment upon hearing this, and the sea bird meat in his mouth suddenly lost its flavor.
It wasn’t that the Flood Dragon meat was more delicious, but something about Yan Wanfei’s words didn’t quite sit right with Lin Jing.
Seeing Lin Jing’s reaction, Yan Wanfei mistakenly thought Lin Jing had some opinions about the Flood Dragon meat, so he chuckled and hurriedly said to Lin Jing:
“Heh heh…”
“Brother Lin, you don’t know, but this Flood Dragon meat is delectable. I had it once at a restaurant in Bihai City.”
“That taste…”
“Tsk tsk… don’t get me started…”
“I guarantee that once you’ve tried it, you’ll never forget it.”
“Otherwise, I wouldn’t have kept this Flood Dragon meat specially.”
Having said that, Yan Wanfei stood up, took the Flood Dragon meat, and placed it onto the grill setup by Lin Jingzhi, starting to roast it.
Then he activated his Spiritual Power, producing a ball of flame, and began to roast the Flood Dragon meat.
At that moment, Yan Wanfei explained:
“This Deep Sea Green Flood Dragon is not like other low-level Demonic Beasts, even after its death, there is still a lot of Spiritual Power remaining in its body, and so it must be roasted with the Elixir Fire of a Cultivator to be thoroughly cooked.”
“Right, Brother Lin, now that you too have reached the Golden Core Stage, you can also use Elixir Fire.”
“I have to tell you, this Elixir Fire is something you should practice diligently, to better control it. It has many uses in daily life.”
“Like refining Spiritual Medicines, ores, even Magical Treasures and the like…”
“If used well, it can even serve as a means of attack.”
As he said this, Yan Wanfei turned his head to look at Lin Jing and said:
“By the way…”
“Brother Lin, do you have any methods for cultivating Elixir Fire? If not, I have one here and could copy it for you.”
Lin Jing smiled in response and explained to Yan Wanfei:
“Thanks for the kind offer, Daoist Yan, but I already have one.”
