Chapter 1529: Alright, let's join the meal

~7 min read 1,270 words

Ye Zhangqing felt he was still kind-hearted, and specifically reminded the other party.

However, the five Emperor Sovereign Space Pirates, upon hearing this, all panicked.

But they didn't dare to mention Ye Zhangqing, so they could only fix their target on the middle-aged man.

"Dao brother, we've been busy running back and forth all along."

"Yeah, we cultivators, a spit and a nail, you had promised earlier."

"Exactly, exactly, Dao brother, you can't go back on your word."

Under the five of them chattering back and forth, the middle-aged man only felt his head buzzing.

Having no time to think, he hurriedly nodded and said.

"Rest assured, I naturally won't go back on my word."

"Good, good."

"I knew I didn't misjudge you, Dao brother."

Upon hearing that, the five Emperor Sovereign Space Pirates finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in satisfaction.

Meanwhile, Ye Zhangqing, seeing this, didn't say anything more.

Having already reminded him, if this middle-aged man still nodded, it was no longer his concern—he was just being tricked into stupidity.

"Go wait in the front hall."

He had the six wait in the front hall, and Ye Zhangqing walked into the kitchen by himself.

Three dishes and one soup were simple; with Ye Zhangqing's speed, they were soon ready.

Meanwhile, the six had been waiting impatiently at the front hall dining table, mainly the five Emperor Sovereign Space Pirates, swallowing saliva again and again, their tongues almost about to swallow themselves.

On the other hand, the middle-aged man was relatively calm; he was just depressed, wondering how things had come to this.

Now he had time, the middle-aged man carefully reviewed the course of events.

Originally they had planned to loot Haotu Shijie, after all they were about to run out of food.

But upon arriving in this world, before they could act, they were inexplicably placed under the command of a space pirate.

Then they encountered these five Emperor Sovereign Space Pirates before them, and inexplicably ended up cooperating with Dao Yi Shengdi.

In any case, over the whole process, developments up to now have left him completely dazed.

Just as this middle-aged man was secretly pondering, suddenly a fragrance drifted into his nose, followed by the sound of chewing.

Huh???

After coming to his senses, he saw the five Emperor Sovereign Space Pirates at the table, each already holding a big bowl of rice, heads down, eating voraciously.

Seeing his gaze, one of them mumbled:

"Dao brother, don't be polite, hurry up and eat."

"Yeah, yeah, today's meal we still got thanks to you."

"Right, right, right, don't be polite, we're all brothers, hurry up and eat."

Huh???

Hearing the five's words, the middle-aged man opened his mouth but for a moment didn't know what to say.

What the hell is this situation? Which of your eyes saw me being polite?

He just didn't notice a moment ago, and you started eating without even saying hello?

And you know this meal is thanks to me.

Originally I had no thoughts about this meal; as an Emperor Sovereign cultivator, I've long abandoned grains, and over these years I haven't eaten anything good.

But now, smelling that tempting aroma, and seeing the five Emperor Sovereign Space Pirates' 'hearty' eating style, each like a starved ghost reborn.

This middle-aged man unconsciously couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

But just as he spaced out, the dishes on the table were already bottomed out.

Originally there were only three dishes and one soup; adding five beasts, it was naturally gone in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man panicked a bit, hurriedly lifted his rice bowl, and shouted:

"You guys leave some for me, this meal is me................"

Before he could finish speaking, his hand holding chopsticks froze in midair, because the dishes were gone.

You can't say they're gone; each dish still has just a single strand left.

For example, these shredded potatoes are just a single strand, and the shredded green pepper with meat has a strand of meat and a strand of green pepper left.

The most outrageous is the minced meat with eggplant—just a grain-of-rice-sized bit of meat left?

The five Emperor Sovereign powerhouses comfortably patted their bellies; seeing the dazed middle-aged man, they all laughed and said:

"Dao brother, hurry up and eat, don't just stand there."

"Dao brother, rest assured, we know the rules—this meal is thanks to you, we've saved some for you."

Hearing the five's shameless-to-the-extreme words, the middle-aged man's mouth twitched and his scalp went numb.

How the hell can you say such shameless things without blushing or your heart racing?

This still counts as knowing the rules? The scraps you left wouldn't even feed a mouse.

But the food's already in their stomachs; what can be done?

The middle-aged man could only, tears in his eyes, pick up that single potato strand and slowly put it in his mouth.

He lightly bit it, and the middle-aged man's eyes instantly widened round.

"This flavor................"

Just as he opened his mouth, that potato strand slipped unnoticed into his stomach.

The flavor seemed to have been tasted, yet also seemed like tasting loneliness.

Next came the shredded green pepper and meat, the same feeling—he didn't even dare to bite hard.

Even if one is extra careful, the flavor still wasn't made clear to it.

Three dishes, the middle-aged man ate in loneliness; finally gritting his teeth, he finished a bowl of white rice, and the middle-aged man looked resentfully at the five Emperor Sovereign Space Pirates on the table.

He now understood the meaning of what Ye Zhangqing had just said.

I've been tricked by this person from the start, leaving me feeling crippled.

The flavor of this food is simply superb.

One can also understand why these Space Pirates would risk their lives for this meal.

Gazing at the five Emperor Sovereign Space Pirates with utter resentment, he spoke softly.

"You already knew, didn't you? You teamed up to deceive me?"

"Dao brother, don't be angry; we're just too hungry, aren't we?"

"Dao brother, rest assured; you've already cooperated with Dao Yi Shengdi, as long as you obtain Tiāndào Qìyùn, why worry about having nothing to eat later?"

"Yeah, Dao brother, if we join forces, we'll just take another world from him."

What the five did was indeed not very proper, but the problem is we are Space Pirates; originally we weren't exactly proper people.

But despite the middle-aged man's resentful gaze, the five still invited him to join forces, to stir up a wave of Tiāndào Qìyùn.

By then, we'll just have another meal and it'll be done.

Faced with the five's invitation, the middle-aged man felt inclined, and without much hesitation nodded in agreement.

"Good."

He didn't clearly taste that flavor just now; if he eats it again, he will definitely be unwilling.

Just having eaten some leftover soup and rice, the middle-aged man's mind is all anxious.

"Okay, okay, let's talk nicely; shall we all eat the rice together?"

"Right, right, right."

"Since we've finished eating, we shouldn't delay; let's set off immediately?"

Just finished eating, the five Emperor Sovereign Space Pirates started craving again, already thinking about the next meal; don't waste time.

Upon hearing that, the middle-aged man had no objection; the six immediately left, preparing to set off for the next world.

After the six left, Shan Hu and Chen Mang came to clear the table, and Chen Mang casually said a line.

"I've never seen anyone willing to share Yè Chánglǎo's food with others before."

"This person is an extreme."
