Chapter 280
【Advertisement】
Looking at so much Soul-Bewitching Powder, everyone fell into silence, but Until Hong Zun didn't give them a chance to think too much.
"What are you still standing there for? Divide it up like before and change to another place to continue. This is only three hundred thousand food supplies; who is it enough for?"
Soon, everyone changed to another place. With the same methods and the same results, they continued to harvest a large batch of food supplies.
"Strange, why is there still no movement?"
Having just finished communicating with Lu Youyou, Until Hong Zun muttered. Had the East Sea aquatic Demon Kings gone into hibernation? Why was there no movement at all?
"What do you mean?"
At this time, Qingshi also came to the side and asked.
"Still no movement."
"Then continue."
"Still coming?"
"The bold are stuffed to death, the timid are starved to death. What, are you afraid now?"
"Bullshit! Would I be afraid?"
After saying this, another ten thousand bottles of Soul-Bewitching Powder appeared before everyone. This time, Qingshi couldn't help but say:
"I seriously suspect you have something going on. Who the hell carries over thirty thousand bottles of Soul-Bewitching Powder on them?"
"Get lost! I snatched all of this from the Joyous Buddha."
"Joyous Buddha? That demonic cultivator who harvests yin to nourish yang?"
"Exactly. Back then, I cut off one of his arms and happened to snatch his spatial ring."
Until Hong Zun explained, but Qingshi looked as if he didn't believe it. Although the Joyous Buddha could indeed do such a thing, Qingshi couldn't believe he would carry over thirty thousand bottles of Soul-Bewitching Powder on him.
"You and the Joyous Buddha wouldn't happen to be..."
"Get lost! I am a gentleman of the righteous path; how could I associate with demonic cultivators?"
While bickering, they found another place and continued to act.
The situation was somewhat different from what they had imagined. They had killed so many aquatic beings, but not a single one of the aquatic Demon Kings had appeared.
In the end, Until Hong Zun had used up all the Soul-Bewitching Powder on him, so for the sake of safety, everyone returned to the Near-Sea Camp.
"Changqing kid..."
Walking into the courtyard excitedly, everyone handed their spatial rings to Ye Changqing one after another. After checking them, Ye Changqing was dumbfounded.
"Did these aquatic beings stretch out their necks for you to chop?"
Hearing this, Xu Jie put his arm around Ye Changqing's shoulder and laughed.
"Who knows what the aquatic race is doing? Not a single Demon King appeared. It's simply strange."
Everyone was also confused as to why the aquatic race had no movement at all.
Ye Changqing curled his lips, always feeling that the aquatic race's intelligence had some problems.
Wasn't it said that after demon races cultivate, their intelligence isn't much different from humans? Why is this aquatic race...
However, now that they had food, everyone was naturally happy.
In the evening, Ye Changqing made a pot of fragrant snails in sauce.
He selected high-quality fragrant snails, first washed them clean with clear water, put them in a pot with cold water, added cooking wine, green onions, and ginger slices to remove the fishy smell, and then scooped them out after blanching.
Afterward, he used garlic, onion, cilantro, small green lime, added double-pepper sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, and an appropriate amount of clear water, and stirred them evenly.
Finally, he poured the sauce over the cooked fragrant snails and stirred them evenly.
It wasn't a new dish; its effect was to clear the heart and calm the spirit, and it could also remove inner demons.
As mealtime arrived, after a fierce scramble, the disciples who grabbed a seat ate with great joy.
And the disciples outside who didn't grab a seat didn't leave either, each stretching their necks with anticipation.
"Senior Brother, don't throw away the snail shell! Let me suck on it."
"Don't even think about it."
This dish of fragrant snails in sauce was considered the disciples' favorite dish. Besides the taste, it was mainly suitable for preservation.
After the snail meat was eaten, the snail shell could be kept. Whenever they had a craving, they could take it out and suck on it, which was also incredibly delicious.
Therefore, they saw each disciple, after eating the snail meat, carefully put the snail shell into their own spatial ring.
After a meal, there wasn't a single scrap left on the floor of the kitchen.
After eating, everyone chatted in the kitchen as usual, occasionally taking out a snail shell to suck on.
Just as everyone was chatting, Until Hong Zun, Qingshi, Zhao Zhengping, and others were gathered together, whispering about something.
"Old drunkard, don't you think today is a bit strange?"
"It is a bit abnormal."
With such a big commotion, the aquatic Demon Kings hadn't appeared. Hearing this, Xu Jie, who was on the side, also chimed in:
"Master, do you think something happened to the aquatic race?"
"It's possible."
Until Hong Zun nodded, and then their gazes collided in the air. There were no words, but they all understood each other's meaning.
At present, it seemed that something had likely happened to the aquatic race. Those aquatic Demon Kings were either not there or unable to get away.
But regardless of which one it was, it meant that the aquatic race currently had no time to worry about them.
In this way, things were simple. Since something happened to your aquatic race, then it should be fine for our Divine Sword Peak to offer some "timely help," right?
"Take advantage of your illness to take your life. Master, should we do it again?"
Xu Jie said with a cold laugh. Hearing this, Until Hong Zun also grinned and laughed.
"Heh heh, you kid are not bad; you think the same as your Master. But for the sake of safety, we still can't be careless. Let's test it first."
Not far away, Ye Changqing, holding a large tea mug, saw Until Hong Zun and the others gathered together again and knew with his toes that the aquatic race was about to suffer heavily again.
Sure enough, that evening, Until Hong Zun and his party quietly slipped out of the array again and came to the East Sea.
"Without Soul-Bewitching Powder, can we do it?"
"Rest assured, it's just a test to see if these aquatic Demon Kings really can't come."
"You all stay on guard everywhere. Qingshi and I will act. Once a Demon King appears, withdraw immediately."
"Yes."
This time it was just a test. Zhao Zhengping and the others scattered, each holding an array disk, while Until Hong Zun and Qingshi rushed into the East Sea in a grand manner and launched a crazy slaughter.
About half an hour later, everyone returned to the camp.
In the backyard of the kitchen late at night, cold, sinister laughter could be heard from time to time.
"It's just as Master guessed. The aquatic race really encountered something. Those Demon Kings are probably not there at all."
"Heh heh, since the aquatic Demon Kings are not there, then isn't this East Sea..."
"Sigh, Third Junior Brother, what are you saying? We are slaying demons and eliminating devils to protect our human race; this is a righteous act."
"Thank you, Senior Brother, for your instruction. Then when shall we act?"
"Tomorrow morning."
"Then what about this time?"
"Nothing to say. Just rush out and kill. But the necessary precautions still can't be less. We need to send people to keep an eye on every direction."
"You say these Demon Kings left on their own, leaving a bunch of food right under our noses. What is this?"
"What else could it be? Thank nature for its gifts."
"Not bad. This is all precious food given by heaven and earth; we must be grateful."
"This time, we must get enough for a year."
