Chapter 3099: I Told You Not to Eat It

Mu You and Qin Shou went to the Elixir Hall together, and in one of its warehouses, the food they had prepared was already piled up.

These were prepared to be sent to those primordial demon race beings as food.

But the ones sent before, they didn't eat a single bite.

These ingredients were researched and perfected by Mu You and Qin Shou; Ye Zhangqing doesn't need to alter them, he just needs to think of a way to enhance the flavor based on this.

He briefly introduced these foods to Ye Zhangqing.

"Anyway, these are just some heavenly treasures and meats; among the demon race, eating one's own kind is normal, Ye Zhangqing, see if you can add a bit of flavor so those primordial demon race beings will eat it."

"I'll give it a try."

Upon hearing that, Ye Zhangqing nodded; the workspace was small, and furthermore, he hadn't really studied the flavor of these ingredients before.

He could only take out some seasonings to see if he could increase the aroma.

Immediately, the three began researching in the warehouse, with Ye Zhangqing leading and Mu You and Qin Shou assisting.

It wasn't complicated; about half a Shíchén later, a faint aroma came from the warehouse, along with Qin Shou's exclamation.

"Holy shit, there's fragrance now; this will definitely work, I can smell it's fragrant."

"Then why don't you try a bite?"

"You're full of shit, this is for the ingredients to eat, you want me to eat it?"

"But you just said it smells fragrant."

After Ye Zhangqing's efforts, the food really did have fragrance; anyway, Qin Shou and Mu You smelled it.

Although it was far inferior to the spiritual food they usually eat, for a moment it actually gave a feeling that greatly stimulated the appetite.

The thought flashed through their minds, and Mu You and Qin Shou were startled, "What kind of joke is this? That's for the ingredients to eat."

"Alright, alright, I'll go try it tomorrow."

After Ye Zhangqing finished his work, Mu You and Qin Shou said confidently, "After Ye Zhangqing's addition, we are confident that tomorrow those ingredients will definitely obediently lower their heads and eat for me."

As long as they eat, the next step, Mu You's Elixir Hall dares to add medicine; we must make these primordial demon race ingredients propagate for me, nobody can escape.

Especially the Tiger Ancestor and Deer Ancestor, these two demon ancestors, are of utmost importance.

Demon ancestor bloodline, you must not just stand there stiffly for me.

Amid their praise and thanks, Ye Zhangqing bade farewell and left, returning to his Dong Fu.

The next morning, Mu You and Qin Shou indeed arrived early at the Beast Pen, pouring yesterday's prepared food into it.

Those primordial demon race beings originally in the Beast Pen still acted aloof, not even glancing at it.

But as the aroma slowly drifted out, those primordial demon race beings in the Beast Pen each unconsciously cast their gazes.

Mu You and Qin Shou keenly sensed this gaze, and couldn't help feeling delighted inside.

But those primordial demon race beings still made no move, merely forcing themselves to endure.

Seeing this, Qin Shou couldn't help but curse.

"Hey, this bunch of dogs, such fragrant stuff and they won't eat it? I can smell it's fragrant."

"So I told you to try a bite."

"Get lost, you're just looking for trouble?"

Upon hearing that, Qin Shou couldn't help but angrily scold, "This guy can't spit ivory out of a dog's mouth."

But looking at those primordial demon race beings, although they frequently cast glances, each one was merely forcing themselves to endure, and not a single demon stepped forward.

Mu You furrowed his brow, pondered for a moment, then pulled Qin Shou and the others accompanying them to feign retreat.

"They're just leaving? Those beasts didn't eat a single bite."

"You didn't notice they're very wary? With us here, they probably won't eat."

The group retreated to a dark place, secretly observing; these primordial demon race beings were still untamed, naturally they couldn't be treated like ordinary demon race ingredients.

We have to take it slow.

As expected, once Mu You and the others were gone, the gazes of the primordial demon race beings in the Beast Pen gradually fell on the food and couldn't look away.

It's fragrant, really fragrant, completely different from yesterday, making one unable to resist wanting to feast heartily.

A primordial demon race being couldn't help but inch closer, muttering softly.

"I want to see what tricks these humans are playing."

Speaking with bravado, the Tiger Ancestor not far off, upon hearing it, also cast an approving gaze.

This is the demon beast of its tiger clan, having backbone; even if captured, how could the tiger clan eat human food?

However, under the Tiger Ancestor's gaze, this tiger demon beast first took a tiny taste, then its eyes lit up.

Immediately after, it began eating in big mouthfuls.

Seeing this, the other primordial demon race beings nearby also became curious, stepping forward one after another.

"You weren't saying you wanted to test human methods?"

In response, this tiger demon beast, while eating, mumbled indistinctly.

"This little trick, watch me finish it."

"Huh???"

Seeing that it couldn't stop eating, the other primordial demon race beings also had their interest aroused, mainly because the flavor was truly fragrant, and up close it smelled even more fragrant.

Not long after, a group of primordial demon race beings was seen surrounding piles of food, each saying "one bite" in their mouths.

"Humans dare to show off their petty tricks before us?"

"Exactly, such petty tricks unfit for the table, watch me eat them all."

"Did you just eat my meat, you bastard?"

"Bullshit, I'm of the deer clan, I can't eat meat; I've been vegetarian since childhood."

"Then what's with the bits of meat at the corner of your mouth?"

You don't understand, this is Human Race grass.

He talks tough, but his body is honest—he never stopped.

The Tiger Ancestor nearby went from initial praise to a dazed stare, and now his face is dark.

These bastards—just now it was admiring their backbone, but now every damn one of them can't stop eating.

He gritted his teeth and shouted angrily.

What are you doing?

Upon hearing that, a Tiger Race demon beast replied without lifting its head.

Old Ancestor, we're cracking these Human Race tricks.

You call this cracking? Lift your heads and speak.

Almost there, Old Ancestor—I'll finish these Human Race tricks right away.

Huh???

You damn... watching these guys talk to me, they don't even have time to lift their heads, each mouthful a little trick.

That damn little trick is almost gone—what do you have to say?

Moreover, watching these guys eat is so satisfying—it's literally making the Demon Race lose face.

A furious roar echoed from the Tiger Ancestor's mouth.

Don't eat.

Yet many of the Demon Race didn't stop—they ate even faster.

Seeing this, the Tiger Ancestor's teeth ground audibly.

I told you not to eat—didn't you hear?

Old Ancestor, I... (sobbing).

His mouth full of food, his speech slurred; seeing this, the Tiger Ancestor's forehead veins bulged as he leapt up and slapped the Tiger Race demon beast away, shouting loudly.

I damn told you not to eat—are you deaf?

Old Ancestor, I... I've figured out the Human Race's tricks.

Get lost.
