Chapter 594

Only on the way back, Ye Changqing vaguely heard Xu Jie muttering.

"This Divine Ox must taste great. After all, it listened to Buddhist scriptures for so many years; I imagine the meat is well-marinated with the flavor of the scriptures."

"More than that, didn't Ming Chen just say that Abbot Juexin often uses high-grade elixirs to nourish this Divine Ox's body? After eating so many elixirs, even if it were a pig, the taste couldn't be bad."

"Senior Brother is right. We're really in for a treat tonight."

"What do you call this? This is called 'fortune lies within misfortune, and misfortune hides within fortune'."

"Heh heh heh.............."

Xu Jie and Zhao Zhengping muttered something unintelligible the whole way, and in the end, they even let out bursts of chilling, sinister laughter.

Ye Changqing, following behind, saw this and felt something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Upon returning to their residence, Ye Changqing began preparing dinner, while Xu Jie went out to find a successor for the Divine Ox; these matters didn't require Ye Changqing to worry.

About an hour later, Xu Jie returned, and Zhao Zhengping asked casually.

"How was it?"

"Could there be a problem when I take action? Everything is settled."

"That's good."

Everything was resolved, signaling to the others not to worry.

Not long after, dinner was ready. Today's meal consisted of stir-fried beef, clear-stewed beef bones, and clear beef offal soup.

In any case, everything was related to the ox.

It was still a fierce battle as the disciples served their food. After taking a bite of the beef, their eyes widened instantly.

"This beef........... is delicious.........."

"It's completely different from ordinary beef."

The group didn't know where this beef came from, but they just felt that the taste of today's beef was much more delicious than what they had eaten before.

Even Until Hong Zun and the others had the same feeling.

"Kid Changqing, where did you get this ox? The taste is quite good."

Hearing this, Ye Changqing, who was drinking soup, was stunned, while Xu Jie beside him kept winking at him.

"It was given to me by Senior Brother Xu."

"Old Third?"

Looking at Xu Jie suspiciously, Xu Jie gave a sheepish smile when faced with Until Hong Zun's gaze.

"Heh heh, I happened to catch an ordinary large green ox, so I thought I'd bring it back. As long as Master likes it."

"At least you kid still has some conscience."

Until Hong Zun seemed very satisfied with this; after all, this was one of the few instances of care from his disciples.

Picking up a slice of beef, he swallowed it with satisfaction and couldn't help but praise.

"As expected of a green ox from the Buddhist Kingdom; there is even a faint trace of Buddhist power within the beef."

Hearing Until Hong Zun's praise, Xu Jie and the others had strange expressions, but they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is it really okay over at the Divine Ox Residence?"

Zhao Zhengping asked with some lingering worry.

To this, Xu Jie said with full confidence.

"Senior Brother, rest assured, it's guaranteed to be fine. I found an identical one and sent it over."

Just as the disciples were eating, inside the Divine Ox Residence, a massive black ox, five or six times the size of the previous Divine Ox, was soaking in the pond with a look of helplessness on its face.

The pond that could drown the large green ox now only reached its waist.

Sighing, it spoke in human language.

"I am a demon beast; can I really serve as the sect's guardian Divine Ox? Will those monks agree?" ===== CHAPTER 595 =====
