Chapter 213

~7 min read 1,380 words

In the largest room on the second floor of Chaos Residence, Chen Nuo fiddled with something on the table.

After a while...

"Finally done!" Chen Nuo beamed with excitement, his whole body suddenly leaning back against the chair.

Looking at the slab-like object before him, roughly the size of a phone from his previous life, Chen Nuo instantly felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment.

This slab was finely polished, made of three pieces joined together, with the top and bottom edges being the shortest and the middle the longest; it looked somewhat like that.

This was the core Chen Nuo used to complete his food delivery mission.

Food delivery machine!

The crystal slab on top is a voice-transmitting stone, capable of communication even from the ends of the earth.

The largest slab in the middle is a recording stone, containing information on all dishes, instantly accessible with a touch, allowing arbitrary viewing and switching.

The bottom slab, made of the same material as the crystal ball, can be used for collecting and making payments.

The recording slab selects dishes, the voice-transmitting slab places orders, and the glass slab settles the bill—this is his solution to each problem.

After preparing the dishes, the delivery person brings them to the door; the whole process is simply perfect!

Moreover, these materials are all system-produced, absolutely reliable in quality and quantity.

"Is there no one here either?" Dapeng entered, scanning the surroundings.

The decor of this place is truly unique; he had never seen anything like it elsewhere.

His gaze wandered casually, and when he saw the imitation Four Swords of Zhuxian hanging centrally on the four walls, Dapeng's pupils contracted.

He hurried forward, closely examining the long sword.

"This sword..." Dapeng murmured.

"What's wrong?" Peng Demon King saw Dapeng's reaction, somewhat puzzled, stepped forward and asked.

Dapeng pointed at the sword, his face showing some excitement: "Look at that sword, this aura—this is a Prepared Saint-level treasure!"

Peng Demon King sensed it for a moment, nodded: "Indeed it is."

The grade of this sword is very high!

It seems...

Peng Demon King turned his head and looked around, as if the other swords in this room were also extraordinary.

Reaching out, Dapeng wanted to touch it.

Noticing his movement, Peng Demon King's face tightened, and he quickly grabbed Dapeng's arm.

"What are you doing?"

"Of course I'm taking the treasure!" Dapeng said matter-of-factly, this treasure is openly displayed—what else are we waiting for?

Peng Demon King had a black line on his face—can you openly display such a treasure and expect to get away with it?

"This is Chen the Shopkeeper's place—don't act recklessly!" Peng Demon King warned sternly.

If you offend Chen the Shopkeeper, he won't be able to protect Dapeng.

Dapeng was somewhat dismissive, but out of respect for Peng Demon King's face, he didn't continue, instead sheepishly retracting his hand.

"Where exactly is this Chen the Shopkeeper you mentioned?"

Although he belongs to the Buddhist Sect, he is also lawless and reckless.

No way—who let his brother be the Great Peacock Wisdom King and Buddha Mother Kong Xuan!

Having a backing makes one arrogant.

It's always others waiting for him—when has he ever waited for others?

This made Dapeng somewhat displeased.

"Chen the Shopkeeper should be upstairs, but it's not early anymore—why hasn't he come down?" Peng Demon King was also quite puzzled.

Creak, creak!

Suddenly, footsteps came from the staircase, and both demons looked toward the sound.

They saw a youth in blue robes, handsome and graceful, walk down.

"Shopkeeper Chen!" Peng Demon King exclaimed excitedly.

Is he Shopkeeper Chen?

Dapeng sized up Chen Nuo from head to toe, brows slightly furrowed; judging by human aesthetics, aside from being handsome, he seemed rather ordinary!

Is he really as terrifying as Peng Demon King said?

Seeing Peng Demon King, Chen Nuo's eyes also flashed with a hint of joy,

Truly, a man in need finds a pillow!

He had just finished perfecting the food delivery machine, and the person for this delivery job had already arrived—not bad at all!

"Back already?" Chen Nuo said lightly.

"Yes yes!" Peng Demon King replied, then couldn't help but probe: "Shopkeeper Chen, am I late?"

If Shopkeeper Chen blames me, it would be terrible!

Chen Nuo gently shook his head: "You've already come the earliest."

He had originally prepared other plans for finding delivery personnel, never expecting Peng Demon King to return so soon.

Peng Demon King, hearing this, blinked: "Didn't Ox Brother come back?"

"You didn't see him when he returned?" Chen Nuo replied offhand, then turned his gaze to Dapeng, this new face, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Where did Peng Demon King find this bird? And he's at the early Great Luo cultivation level.

The two look somewhat similar in their true forms—could they be some kind of cousins?

Expression unchanged, Chen Nuo began calculating in his mind; judging by this true form, his flight speed must not be bad.

Moreover, he couldn't possibly rely solely on Peng Demon King for food delivery.

Chen Nuo secretly nodded, just in time, unexpectedly, this Peng Demon King is a good employee who cares about Chaos Residence!

I didn't expect the Peng Demon King to bring his family along for the development of his Chaos Residence, truly rare and precious.

Compared to the Peng Demon King, the newly arrived Golden-Winged Dapeng lacks much reverence; his Golden Luo Golden Immortal cultivation is his foundation.

Releasing his mana, the Golden-Winged Dapeng intended to probe Chen Nuo's cultivation, wanting to see exactly what divine being could be so praised by the Peng Demon King.

But in the next moment, the Golden-Winged Dapeng's face drastically changed, and he hastily retracted all his mana.

The Peng Demon King also noticed Chen Nuo's gaze, pointed at the Golden-Winged Dapeng, and said: "Chen the shopkeeper, this is my friend Jin Peng, and today I came with him to gain some experience."

Chen Nuo understood, feeling somewhat disappointed in his heart; turns out he didn't come to work part-time.

However, a trace of scrutiny flashed in his eyes, Chen Nuo secretly pondered, Jin Peng, Golden-Winged Dapeng...

Is he that one from Lion Camel Kingdom in Journey to the West? Somewhat interesting, I didn't expect him to come too.

"Want to eat?" Regaining his composure, Chen Nuo said lightly.

The Peng Demon King nodded frantically: "Of course! These days I've been dying to eat the food you make, Chen the shopkeeper!"

After saying that, the Peng Demon King looked at Chen Nuo, full of hope: "Chen the shopkeeper, is my previous half-price discount still valid?"

His fee is half his mana; without this half-price privilege, eating one meal and ordering one jar of Peach Blossom Brew would directly drain him.

Chen Nuo shrugged and said casually: "As long as you keep working, this privilege will always remain."

"I will surely go through fire and water for Chaos Residence, sparing no effort!" The Peng Demon King overjoyed, hastily expressed his stance.

Chen Nuo rolled his eyes, when delivering takeout don't secretly eat, put in a bit more effort, and he'll already be satisfied.

Looking at the two demons, Chen Nuo said: "Let's order first."

"Chen the shopkeeper, I want one portion of roasted lamb leg!" the Peng Demon King said without hesitation.

In these days at the Yao Shi Gong, this is what he craves most, he can't stop thinking about it.

He also tried to let the Yao Shi Gong's chef imitate it, following his imagination to recreate it, but sadly the difference is not just a little bit.

Chen Nuo nodded, looking at the Golden-Winged Dapeng who had remained silent, and asked: "What about you? What do you plan to eat?"

"I..." when asked by Chen Nuo, the Golden-Winged Dapeng hesitated, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and he unconsciously retreated half a step.

This person, what cultivation does he have, that with his Golden Luo Golden Immortal cultivation, he feels nothing of depth or shallowness at all?

Just like an ant gazing at a high mountain, a water droplet compared to the sea, this gap cannot possibly be estimated!

Even if it's a Prepared Saint, it might not be able to give him such a feeling?!
