The raging flames burned on the Great Demon King for an unknown duration. The parrot, unable to bear it any longer, advised, "That's enough, it's starting to smell good!"
Only then did it stop. The donkey panted heavily, stretched out its front hooves, and kicked a few times. Seeing that the opponent was indeed motionless, it looked around again, full of vigilance, "No one else will rush over, right?"
"Probably not, it's still the one you beat yesterday..." the parrot recognized.
"Still him? Then... wait, let me burn him a bit more!"
His eyes flashed, and the donkey added more firewood.
"..." The parrot was speechless.
This friend was good in every way, except for being too cautious.
The flames continued for a long time, and seeing that the Great Demon King was thoroughly charred, the donkey felt relieved.
After defeating the "enemy," the three beast companions turned to the corpse of the silver-winged green dragon. To hide, it had reduced its size and hadn't had time to grow larger. At this moment, it looked like a giant loach with wings.
"Is this a demon beast?" the three beasts were curious.
It was the first time they had seen one.
After tilting its head and thinking for a while, the parrot said, "Do you think we misunderstood that guy? It's possible he didn't come to kill us, but to... give us a gift?"
"Give a gift?" the donkey was puzzled.
The parrot said, "Maybe he heard us say that demon beast meat is delicious, so he deliberately killed one to ease the tension?"
"..."
The donkey and the old turtle were stunned.
Come to think of it, it was indeed possible.
When that guy first appeared, he didn't say he wanted to kill anyone, but rather... I have something delicious!
Uh...
If that's the case, it's too tragic!
Before they could even speak, they were kicked to death and even had their corpse burned...
They all looked at the Great Demon King's "corpse," which was already as black as charcoal. His eyes were wide open, and his face was full of regret.
"It's also possible that he was trying to麻痹 us with the demon beast's corpse and then find an opportunity to attack!" After some thought, the donkey said cautiously, "Safety first, we must avoid any potential problems in advance!"
The parrot didn't argue.
That guy, with his demonic aura, clearly wasn't a good person. Even if he came to give a gift, it would be like a weasel wishing a chicken a happy new year, with no good intentions.
"Let's not think about it anymore!"
Without further ado, the parrot looked at the green dragon in front of it, drooling, "Since this is a demon beast, it must taste good. Why don't we... let the master cook it and try it?"
The master could make ordinary food so delicious and unforgettable; using demon beast meat would definitely be even more fragrant.
Creak!
At that moment, the door opened, and the young man stretched and walked over.
"Quick, bury it..."
The donkey hurriedly buried the Great Demon King's corpse in the garden again. The three beasts carried the silver-winged green dragon's corpse and walked over.
"You can catch wild game now? Not bad!" Su Yin nodded in satisfaction.
It looked like a kind of loach. Earth has flying fish, so it's not strange for there to be winged loaches here. Moreover, the old turtle could catch carp, so catching such a strange fish wasn't unusual.
"You're in for a treat today!" Smiling, Su Yin took out a kitchen knife.
As a chef, slaughtering and skinning were common tasks. Although he didn't know what this loach-like creature was, its firm muscles clearly indicated it would taste good.
Buzz!
Countless holy essence intentions emanated from Su Yin's body. The knife flashed, and the green dragon's scales were cleanly removed. The meat was shaved off and cut into uniformly sized pieces.
Skewered and placed over the fire... the grilling began!
Sizzle!
The aroma wafted out, and the various plants and flowers in the yard, "sensing" the smell, danced again, as if blown by a gentle breeze. The charred muscles of the Great Demon King, buried underground, absorbed part of the aroma and regained a faint hint of vitality.
The old turtle, parrot, and the other beasts also closed their eyes, quietly enjoying the moment. Countless spiritual energies, accompanying the aroma, slowly seeped into their bodies, subtly changing their physical structures.
Su Yin was unaware of all this. At the moment, his attention was entirely focused on the food in front of him.
In the forbidden area, he had prepared many delicious dishes, but this one... seemed unusually fragrant.
Especially the wings, which glistened with oil, golden and shiny. Even he couldn't resist the urge to eat.
...
While Su Yin was grilling the meat, Yao Zhan flew over in the direction indicated by the bloodline.
"Yin Xianju?" He frowned.
Yin Xian... claiming to be a hidden immortal, how arrogant!
"Could it be... that the junior master is hiding here?"
The only one who could silently capture the silver-winged dragon, in his view, was the "junior master." Plus, after searching for so long without finding him, could it be... that the person he was looking for wasn't inside the sect but here?
If so, everything would make sense.
"Let's go and see..."
Transforming into a shadow, he quietly infiltrated the courtyard. As soon as he entered, he immediately smelled a strong aroma.
"Is that... Senior Green Dragon's wings?" Yao Zhan's eyes turned red.
The meat and wings being grilled nearby were his!
In other words... this senior at the Divine Palace realm was not only killed but also cooked and eaten!
Damn!
Clenching his fists, he looked at the figure grilling the meat, a young man of about eighteen or nineteen, with no trace of true qi in his body, seemingly without any cultivation!
An ordinary person?
Ha ha!
To be able to kill the silver-winged dragon and turn it into grilled meat?
If you really think he has no power, you're a fool!
"It must be him! And his strength is even more terrifying than I imagined. I must inform the sect as soon as possible..."
Suppressing his grief, Yao Zhan turned and left.
His main task was to investigate. Whether to seek revenge or cause trouble would be decided by his master.
Escaping the courtyard, he found a secluded spot, flipped his wrist, and a communication jade token appeared in his palm. He transmitted his experiences and observations of the day.
...
Fenglei Sect.
Qin Wentian and several elders were all seated.
"Yao Zhan has already arrived at Zhenxian Sect and found the junior master..."
A jade token appeared, and Qin Wentian lightly touched it, causing the words to slowly float up.
"To find someone so quickly, he truly lives up to being the master's personal disciple, indeed impressive!"
"Yao Zhan has always been excellent..."
The elders stroked their beards, nodding in satisfaction.
To have results after just half a day was quite impressive.
"What is the junior master's specific strength?" an elder asked.
"I just received the message and haven't had time to ask. Let's see together!" Smiling calmly, Qin Wentian input the elder's question.
The light flickered, and the message from the other side was transmitted.
"His specific strength is unknown, but it's known that Senior Silver-Winged Green Dragon was directly and silently killed!"
"The Green Dragon is dead?" Everyone's faces turned pale, and the green-robed elder's eyes reddened, almost falling over.
"The Silver-Winged Green Dragon, though only at the first level of the Divine Palace realm, has dragon blood and extraordinary combat power. To be easily killed... could this guy have reached the Master realm?"
"An eighteen-year-old Master? Impossible..."
"Very likely!" Qin Wentian trembled with anger. "If he had no strength, he wouldn't be so arrogant!"
"???" Everyone was puzzled.
"The Silver-Winged Green Dragon, everyone knows, is our Fenglei Sect's beast companion... He killed it without any hesitation, clearly not taking us seriously!" Qin Wentian explained.
Knowing it belonged to them and still killing it without any mercy, it's not just arrogance but a provocation!
Buzz!
While they were discussing, the jade token continued to flash, and another line of text appeared.
"After the Silver-Winged Green Dragon was killed, its meat was grilled... and this junior master was singing while eating..."
"Singing? What was he singing?" Qin Wentian asked urgently.
"Red-braised wings, I like to eat, but your old mother says you're about to ascend, the faster you ascend, the more you should eat, if you don't eat now, you won't have the chance to eat later..."
"..." Everyone's faces twitched, and their vision went black.
Damn!
Too arrogant!
No need to think, it's definitely a provocation, a blatant provocation!
