Chapter 1223

Bringing Dongfang Hong and Dongfang Bai to the main hall, the other members of the Dongfang Family were arranged to rest elsewhere temporarily.

Of course, the necessary surveillance was indispensable; although the Dongfang Family members were unhappy inside, they could only endure it.

Inside the hall, Dongfang Hong and Dongfang Bai, facing the inquiries of Yun Xiantai and others, answered without reservation.

Including how the demon tribe attacked their world, how the Dongfang Family was defeated, and how they fled all the way here.

Their attitude was very sincere; in the end, Dongfang Hong spoke with a mournful expression.

"The demon tribe has become increasingly lawless; my Dongfang Family has never had any grudge with them, yet they attacked without any warning."

"This time we were forced into Haotu Shijie; I hope fellow Daoists will understand—my Dongfang Family seeks nothing else, only a temporary place to stay."

Listening to Dongfang Hong's words, Yun Xiantai and the others later wore strange expressions, exchanging glances.

What did this guy just say? The demon tribe is fierce? Really fierce?

In Dongfang Hong's mouth, the demon tribe was practically a demonic existence, impossible to resist, leaving nothing growing wherever they went.

But............. everyone simply could not understand Dongfang Hong's words.

Is the demon tribe really that fierce? Thinking back to the demon tribes we encountered before, and the hundreds of thousands of demon tribes imprisoned in Dao Yi Shengdi, are they fierce? It seems we didn't feel anything special.

Dongfang Hong also noticed the odd expressions on Yun Xiantai and the others, and weakly asked.

"Was there something wrong with what I just said? Do you all not believe me?"

Dongfang Hong's first thought was that Yun Xiantai and the others didn't believe him, yet what he said earlier contained not a single false word.

At this point, how could he possibly deceive Yun Xiantai and the others with lies?

Our Dongfang Family truly only seeks a temporary place to stay.

Dongfang Hong grew anxious—could it be that we will eventually have to fight?

Seeing this, Yun Xiantai's face turned strange as he spoke.

"It's not that we don't believe you, it's just that the demon tribe really is as fierce as you say?"

Hmm???

What does that mean? Isn't the demon tribe fierce? Among Zhu Tian Wan Jie, the demon tribe is the fiercest, not just fierce, but incredibly fierce.

He nodded slowly, woodenly.

"Fierce, the demon tribe is truly born ferocious, genuinely the fiercest race."

Speaking of the demon tribe, Dongfang Hong truly felt deep apprehension, after all, it was the demon tribe that reduced his Dongfang Family to this state.

The clan suffered heavy casualties, only one in ten survived; whenever the demon tribe is mentioned, Dongfang Hong feels nothing but hatred and deep apprehension.

Yet Yun Xiantai and the others truly cannot empathize.

However, after inquiring about the Dongfang Family's basic situation, Yun Xiantai and the others discussed and finally nodded.

"We can give the Dongfang Family a temporary place to stay, but the necessary surveillance.......... we hope you can understand."

It's impossible to let the Dongfang Family act freely; although Dongfang Hong was displeased inside, he still nodded and agreed.

After the discussion, the Dongfang Family's settlement was naturally set in Dao Yi Shengdi.

This also makes surveillance convenient, fearing no secret tricks from the Dongfang Family.

Afterwards, everyone asked Dongfang Hong more about the outside world, and he answered without reservation.

For example, his own cultivation level is Emperor Sovereign Realm, a realm after the Great Emperor Realm.

As for this realm, Yun Xiantai and the others had never encountered it before, after all, the recorded limit of cultivation in Haotu Shijie is the Great Emperor Realm.

Although some had speculated before that the Great Emperor Realm is not the end, details about what comes after are mostly guesswork.

Now with Dongfang Hong's explanation, everyone's understanding of Zhu Tian Wan Jie has increased considerably.

Compared to Zhu Tian Wan Jie, Haotu Shijie is indeed too small.

After some casual talk, it soon became Fàn diǎn; it was rare that Ye Zhangqing followed along, so naturally nobody wanted to miss this meal.

As for Dongfang Hong and Dongfang Bai, after a chat they became acquainted.

Yun Xiantai then invited the two to eat together.

Dongfang Hong originally had no interest, but facing Yun Xiantai's invitation, after thinking he didn't refuse.

After all, this is on someone else's turf; one must give face.

Arriving at the dining hall specially prepared for Ye Zhangqing by the elf tribe, several tables of food were already ready.

Dongfang Hong, Dongfang Bai, and Yun Xiantai's group sat at one table.

Seeing the food before them, Dongfang Bai's eyes lit up, which was also quite unexpected for Dongfang Hong.

This food looks really fragrant.

As an Emperor Sovereign Realm existence, Dongfang Hong naturally no longer cared about such so-called desires of the palate.

Those so-called mountain delicacies and sea flavors, in Dongfang Hong's eyes, were just that, completely lacking any appeal.

But now, looking at this table of food, Dongfang Hong felt as if he had long gone without feeling hungry.

Could it be that the gourmet food of Haotu Shijie has already developed to this extent?

Is this a world dedicated to studying cuisine?

Before, it wasn't that I had never encountered such a world.

For example, some worlds have highly developed alchemy standards, while others have pretty good artifact forging standards.

That's quite normal, but this world that develops cuisine, he hadn't come into contact with.

After all, this cuisine for cultivators seems.......... Holy shit..........

At first his mind was wandering, but as soon as he took a bite, Dongfang Hong was completely stunned.

The effect of this dish..........

Dongfang Hong's first impression was that the effect of this dish was simply heaven-defying, even comparable to medicinal pills.

With one mouthful, Dongfang Hong felt a warm current surge through his whole body; his severely damaged, nearly destroyed five viscera and six bowels, along with his meridians, began to slowly recover thanks to this warm current.

You know, Dongfang Hong has taken healing medicine along the way, but its effect seems nowhere near as good as this one bite of mine.

Just one bite has this much effect—has the food of Haotu Shijie really become this strong?

He looked at Yun Xiantai and the others with a look of astonishment, speaking somewhat incredulously.

"Fellow Daoists, this dish..."

"How is it? The taste isn't bad, huh? If you like it, eat more."

Since there weren't many people to begin with, Yun Xiantai and the others didn't eat as they had before—after all, there were guests, so we ought to keep up appearances; otherwise, wouldn't people look down on our Haotu Shijie?

It's just a little food—we don't care at all; look, we face these delicacies and remain unusually calm.

Indeed, compared to Dongfang Hong, Yun Xiantai and the others are quite composed—but is that what Dongfang Hong is referring to?

Damn, I'm talking to you about efficacy, and you're talking to me about taste? You're all Great Emperor cultivators—do you only care about taste? Efficacy is what matters most, right?
