Chapter 3098

~7 min read 1,329 words

Watching Tiger Ancestor lower his head and frantically eat the grass on the ground, a few passing Dao One Immortal Sect disciples muttered with weird faces.

"Huh, this guy is actually smart; he even knows eating grass is beneficial."

Since this beast pen was meticulously crafted by the Dao One Immortal Sect, the grass inside naturally isn't ordinary grass.

Although its grade isn't that high, it was still personally developed by Mu You of the Pill Hall and Qin Shou of the Beast Taming Hall of the Dao One Immortal Sect.

Produced by crossbreeding different kinds of spiritual grasses, it is greatly beneficial to the Demon Race.

So Tiger Ancestor feels that the more he eats, the more energetic he becomes.

Originally I thought it would be those herbivorous Demon Race who would try it first, but unexpectedly it was Tiger Ancestor who first ate the spiritual grass.

Hearing that, a disciple couldn't help but sigh.

"No wonder they're the Demon Ancestor; what keen eyesight."

I thought Tiger Ancestor had noticed the efficacy of these spiritual grasses in the beast pen, but he naturally didn't know about this; at this moment feeling something wrong, he stopped.

He muttered curses under his breath.

"Damn, this grass is weird; why does eating more make me more energetic?"

Tiger Ancestor originally intended to commit suicide, but after eating so much spiritual grass, not only did he feel no discomfort, he felt increasingly energetic; what is this?

It wants to die, not to live.

The Deer Ancestor nearby heard this, glanced suspiciously at Tiger Ancestor, and casually said.

"Does eating this grass have any benefit?"

Hearing that, Tiger Ancestor replied irritably.

"What a load of crap; even human grass is trash."

Tiger Ancestor naturally has no liking for these spiritual grasses; damn, do you need to come heal my wounds? I want to add injury to injury.

But seeing Tiger Ancestor like that, the Deer Ancestor became interested, lowered his head and took a bite of the grass on the ground.

As the Deer Race's elder, the Deer Ancestor obviously adapts better to the taste of this spiritual grass than Tiger Ancestor, since the Deer Race are herbivores.

Although they occasionally eat humans, their diet mixes meat and vegetables, unlike the purely carnivorous Tiger Race.

At that moment, after a mouthful of grass, the Deer Ancestor's eyes lit up slightly.

This grass is something else; it's different from the grass he ate before.

First, the taste is much better; second, its efficacy seems not bad either.

Although for an innate Demon Race elder like him the effect is minuscule, he can still feel its restorative effect on his wounds.

If this were given to an ordinary innate Demon Race individual, it would definitely be a rare treasure.

Is this grass a special product of the human race from Beyond the Heavens? I've never heard of humans eating grass.

The Deer Ancestor's evaluation of the grass is not low; watching it eat with relish, Tiger Ancestor couldn't help but shout angrily.

"Can't you have some ambition?"

"What's wrong with me taking a bite?"

Hearing that, the Deer Ancestor replied indifferently, "We're already like this, still putting on airs?"

Right now, wanting to leave this place is completely impossible; being anxious is useless.

And within the Dao One Immortal Sect, having captured so many innate Demon Race ingredients, the disciples naturally drool with desire.

But everyone also knows the difference between a single full meal and constant full meals.

Right now these innate Demon Race ingredients are all very useful; if we eat them all up, there will be none left later.

For now we still have to endure; we can only persist in eating ordinary ingredients.

Dinner remains a dragon-tiger struggle; to get a bite of this hot food, many disciples pull out all stops.

Outside the Canteen it's still extremely lively.

They waited until the Fàn diǎn ended; after many disciples had eaten and drunk their fill, the Canteen gradually quieted down.

Originally it was just like usual, planning to return to his own Dong Fu, but today Mu You and Qin Shou actively sought Ye Zhangqing.

Seeing the two, Ye Zhangqing asked suspiciously.

"What is this, Elders?"

"Hehe, there's a small matter I want Ye Zhangqing to help with."

Qin Shou laughed and spoke, facing the two's request, Ye Zhangqing naturally wouldn't refuse.

As long as it's within his ability.

Immediately, Qin Shou explained their purpose.

"It's like this: we've been busy lately with those innate Demon Race ingredients; the previously prepared demon foods they won't eat, so we want Ye Zhangqing to help adjust the feed, see if we can make them eat; not eating is not an option, it might affect breeding."

Since we're raising the ingredients as livestock, we naturally have to consider all aspects; food is definitely paramount.

Moreover, the Demon Race differs from the human race; once humans embark on the path of Xiūliàn, they can abstain from grains, needing only to draw on heavenly and earthly spiritual energy to meet their bodily needs.

But the Demon Race is different; they rely on their own bloodline power, and bloodline power, besides heavenly and earthly spiritual energy, also needs flesh and blood and the nourishment of various heavenly treasures and earthly gems.

So the Demon Race needs these, just as human Xiūliàn practitioners need to use elixirs; having elixirs naturally makes them even more formidable.

And to make these ingredients breed better, daily food is definitely indispensable.

The Dao One Immortal Sect naturally has long summed up this experience; they know it inside out.

In the past, when raising those Demon Race beings, it was like this, and it always went smoothly.

But this time, after this batch of innate Demon Race ingredients entered the pen, the food provided by the Dao One Immortal Sect—this bunch of damned things—didn't eat a single bite.

They looked like they wanted to starve themselves to death, making Mu You and Qin Shou anxiously worried.

How can this be? With you looking weak and listless, how can you breed?

"Other things are fine to say; the main issue is that over a long period we'll also need to add medicine, and we don't know if we can withstand it."

"Huh???"

The medicinal additive Mu You spoke of, Ye Zhangqing knew, they added those medicines that help with breeding; anyway, they weren't any good medicines.

This is something the Alchemy Hall developed themselves; summed up in one sentence: it's potent, just take a casual sip and you'll see even a sow become comely.

Otherwise, why would you think these demon race ingredients raised by the Dao One Immortal Sect would willingly cooperate in breeding?

Isn't it simply that they're not under one's control at all?

But this medicine is strong, its potency is also fierce; without a good physique, one might not really be able to withstand it.

Right now these innate demon race individuals are each a precious treasure; losing even one would make Mu You and the other feel heartache for a while, so naturally they can't be careless.

So after thinking it over, the two could only have Ye Zhangqing step in, to see if they could improve the flavor.

Not asking for it to be very tasty, but even a little improvement is something.

After hearing the two's words, Ye Zhangqing's expression turned somewhat strange, 'make ingredients into ingredients?'

But unable to withstand the two's repeated requests, Ye Zhangqing thought it over and still agreed.

"I'll give it a try, but I can't guarantee how effective it will be."

"Good, good, good, with Ye Zhangqing acting, we have confidence."

Seeing Ye Zhangqing nod, Mu You immediately laughed and said, 'Since knowing Ye Zhangqing, when has this kid ever messed up?'

Anyway, the other two handle the other aspects; Ye Zhangqing only needs to take care of the flavor, whatever it turns out to be, let's just try it first.
