Chapter 1073: Qi Xiong Treats to a Meal

~7 min read 1,363 words

Looking at Qi Xiong's current state, there was not a hint of him being hunted; the man was absolutely glowing with health.

It wasn't just Iron Hand and the others who were gnashing their teeth; the Buddhist sect members were all wearing expressions of existential doubt.

But as the Buddhist Saints regained their senses and saw Jiang Muying beside Qi Xiong, they all gnashed their teeth and said,

"Wangyou, you... have you betrayed the Buddha?"

Wangyou was Jiang Muying's dharma name, and the various Saints were naturally no strangers to her.

After all, this person had quite a reputation in the Western Continent. She had become a nun halfway through her life, yet her study of Buddhist techniques had progressed by leaps and bounds, and her talent was exceptional.

There were even Buddhist ancestors who asserted that Wangyou would surely become a Saint in the future.

It was just unexpected that Wangyou, who had been held in such high regard by the Buddhist ancestors, would betray the Buddhist sect at this moment.

Seeing Jiang Muying appear here, the Buddhist Saints understood everything.

No wonder they had searched the entire Eastern Continent ferry crossing yet could never find a trace of Qi Xiong; it turned out he had been hidden away by Wangyou.

They had never suspected Wangyou either, as she was considered a core figure of the Buddhist sect.

Facing the angry shouts of the Buddhist Saints, Jiang Muying did not speak, but Qi Xiong sneered instead.

"What kind of bullshit Wangyou? She is Jiang Muying."

"Qi Xiong, you go too far!"

Hearing this, several Buddhist Saints could not help but attack him directly, but in the next second, they were blocked by Iron Hand, Fairy Baihua, and the others.

Angry as they were, they couldn't just stand by and not save him.

Under the cover of Iron Hand and the others, Qi Xiong held Jiang Muying in one arm, followed by Su Luoxing, and swaggered away from the Eastern Continent ferry crossing.

Watching Qi Xiong's retreating back, the Buddhist Saints were gnashing their teeth—damn it, truly damn it.

If Qi Xiong had escaped while heavily injured, they might have found it easier to accept.

But now, damn it, you're holding our Buddhist sect's Elder and swaggering away as if you're strolling through your own backyard? Isn't that a bit too much?

No one expected that it would end in such a result.

After expending so much effort, they still let Qi Xiong escape, and he escaped so openly and brazenly.

Arriving at the temporary encampment along the way, as expected, Qi Xiong was surrounded by everyone.

Especially Iron Hand, Qin Shanhai, and Fairy Baihua; they hated Qi Xiong so much they were gnashing their teeth.

"Senior Brother, this isn't right of you. We were fighting for our lives for your sake, while you were enjoying yourself..."

"I just happened to run into Yingying, didn't I? Besides, I was waiting for you all to break the blockade."

To this, Qi Xiong explained helplessly.

What he said was the truth and made sense, but seeing him holding Jiang Muying's little hand, the two of them looking so deeply in love, Fairy Baihua and the others just felt unhappy inside.

"Yo, little Ye Changqing is here too. Good, good, good."

Not caring at all about everyone's anger, Qi Xiong saw Ye Changqing just walking into the hall and immediately stood up with a laugh.

Ye Changqing being here was a pleasant surprise; it looked like he would be able to eat fresh food again.

Although the dry rations were not bad, they were always lacking something. They were fine for emergencies, but in the end, they couldn't compare to freshly cooked food.

It was the same principle as how takeout is never as good as dining in.

"Sect Master."

"Haha, you don't need to be so formal with me, kid. Come, let me introduce you..."

He immediately introduced Jiang Muying to Ye Changqing, to which Ye Changqing only greeted her politely.

Conversely, Jiang Muying's beautiful eyes were filled with confusion. Since when did the Dao Yi Sect have such a young main Elder?

And what the hell was a 'Canteen'?

Jiang Muying didn't understand Ye Changqing yet, but soon, as mealtime arrived, she realized her mistake.

Because of the intense battle, Ye Changqing didn't slack off and made a sufficient amount of food.

The Dao Yi Sect and Luoxia Sect disciples present all had their share, so there was no need to fight over it.

As for Qi Xiong, Su Luoxing, and the other Saints of the two sects, they were served a special meal, which made Qi Xiong's mouth stretch from ear to ear.

"Yingying, eat quickly, if you're slow, it'll be gone."

Qi Xiong was truly thoughtful; before the dishes were even served, he reminded Jiang Muying to be fast later.

But Jiang Muying, who didn't understand this, didn't quite grasp Qi Xiong's meaning.

"How rude, everyone is here, how can you..."

"Sigh, Yingying, you don't understand."

Jiang Muying clearly hadn't realized the severity of the situation. In her view, when everyone was eating at the same table, one had to observe etiquette.

But here at the Dao Yi Sect, any bullshit etiquette was just nonsense.

In the entire Dao Yi Sect, apart from Fairy Baihua and the Great Saint ancestors like Yu Mo, no one could maintain etiquette while eating, unless you wanted to go hungry.

She was still planning to explain further, but at this moment, Zhong Ling and the other personal disciples had already brought the dishes to the table.

Seeing this, Iron Hand, Qin Shanhai, and even Su Luoxing and the others were not polite at all and immediately swept through the food like a whirlwind.

"Holy shit, no time to explain, Yingying, eat quickly!"

With a strange cry, Qi Xiong joined the fray, leaving only Jiang Muying standing there in a daze, muttering,

"It smells so good."

As soon as the dishes were served, Jiang Muying caught a fragrance she couldn't refuse.

But just as she finished sighing, she turned her head to look, and the dishes on the table were gone.

There were over ten dishes in total, and everything was gone; even the plates had been licked clean.

For a moment, Jiang Muying was stunned. No, had it even been ten breaths since the dishes were served?

Looking at Qi Xiong and the others again, everyone was holding a large bowl, and the bowls were filled to the brim with food.

"You... you guys..."

She said to them with a blank face, but at this moment, no one paid her any mind. Only Qi Xiong, who was wolfing down his food, looked at Jiang Muying and, with a look of reluctance, picked out a tiny shred of meat from his bowl for her.

"Yingying, you eat mine."

Seeing Qi Xiong act like this, Qin Shanhai and Iron Hand at the same table were both shocked.

Holy shit, the Senior Brother actually shared his food with someone else? This is true love, I'm crying.

Don't look at it as just a tiny shred of meat; given Qi Xiong's personality, this was already extremely difficult. In the past, when had Qi Xiong ever done such a thing?

It was good enough if he didn't come to snatch yours; you still wanted him to share with you?

But Jiang Muying had a complex expression, looking at the food piled high in Qi Xiong's bowl and the lonely little shred of meat in her own bowl.

Jiang Muying opened her mouth but found she couldn't say a word, while Qi Xiong said with a vigilant look,

"Yingying, I don't have much either, you eat this first, okay?"

Huh???

Looking at that bowl piled high with food with a gloomy gaze, you call this 'not much'? Do you think I'm blind, or did you get water in your brain?

Her eyes filled with resentment, Jiang Muying helplessly picked up the shred of meat in her bowl and slowly put it into her mouth. But with just one bite, Jiang Muying's eyes instantly went round.
