He softened his voice a little.

"You can go out and play again."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Feng shook his head repeatedly.

"Mother, I don't mean it that way; this is to show filial piety to you."

While saying this, Xuan Feng anxiously tore open the packaging of the Peach Blossom Brew.

The Flying Dragon Soup is too complicated; I feel unpacking it will be very troublesome.

"Go out."

Nüwa's voice suddenly turned indifferent; she dislikes others defying her words.

"But, Mother!

I"

Xuan Feng's face changed drastically, and his hands kept moving.

"I said I would go out."

Nüwa spoke again, and the words resonated in Xuan Feng's ears, majestic and unyielding!

Xuan Feng's face turned deathly pale, and his hand stopped abruptly.

He had no courage to retort!

He didn't even dare to breathe heavily.

Finished!

Xuan Feng felt a wave of despair in his heart, yet still couldn't move Mother!

This essence blood of his was wasted for nothing!

Xuan Feng staggered to his feet, placing the food on the ground without picking it up, having already offered it to Mother—how could there be any reason to take it back?

Even if Mother directly threw it away, he couldn't say anything, nor dare to say anything.

Stepping out of the hall, Xuan Feng felt his whole body light-headed and heavy-footed, with a sorrowful expression, his heart filled with resentment but nowhere to vent.

He could now say this was a total loss of essence blood!

This time he lost four drops of essence blood; at minimum, he'd need two or three months of full recuperation to recover. Normally, the Wahuang Palace remains secluded and does not go out.

This is precisely why, as a mount, he can only leave the Wahuang Palace to get some air every few years.

If he loses more essence blood, it will affect his foundation!

Before his essence blood recovers, he dares not return to Chaos Residence, for fear he might lose control and consume himself.

But in that case, this opportunity to get some air would be completely wasted, and if he goes again next time, he'd at least need three or four years!

Don't even mention three or four years—just going three or two months without eating Chaos Residence's dishes would drive him mad!

There's no helping it; this truly isn't his fault—lacking willpower, the dishes of Chaos Residence are simply too delicious!

One day without eating feels like three autumns have passed!

Xuan Feng's heart is dripping blood at this very moment.

If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have bought the Peach Blossom Brew, or better yet, not taken it out at all—after all, Shopkeeper Chen said the Peach Blossom Brew can be bought infinitely and drunk endlessly.

Even if he brought it back to drink, it wouldn't count as a violation.

But now, the Peach Blossom Brew, along with the Flying Dragon Soup, cannot be taken out.

Mother drinking it would be fine, but looking at it this way, it's equivalent to wasting an entire jar!

This is a precious fine brew he exchanged for with a whole drop of essence blood!

Alas!

Xuan Feng shook his head and sighed bitterly; the more he spoke, the more tears came!

Nüwa glanced at the Flying Dragon Soup and Peach Blossom Brew on the ground, her expression somewhat displeased.

This Xuan Feng, after going out, didn't even take these things with him.

She still has to clean them up herself.

As for what Xuan Feng said, Nüwa fundamentally doesn't take it seriously.

Her experience as a Holy Person—how could it be compared to Xuan Feng's mere Great Luo level? She dares not guarantee she has tasted all the delicacies in the world.

But one thing she firmly believes: no delicacy can move her, not for any other reason, but because she is a Holy Person.

Raising her white wrist, Nüwa was about to wave and make these two things disappear before her.

But in the very next instant, Nüwa forcefully restrained herself, her jade face revealing a hint of surprise—this aroma, so fragrant, fresh and light, just smelling it refreshes the heart and spleen.

Nüwa looked toward the Peach Blossom Brew on the ground, opened but not fully opened.

The aroma seemed to come from here, very faint, yet impossible to hide from her.

Interest rekindled in her eyes—clearly it's wine, yet why does it also have fruit fragrance? Xuan Feng said it's a divine object, indeed exaggerated, but this wine is indeed quite novel.

Even with her experience, she has never encountered such an aroma in wine.

Wanting to drink, this thought suddenly sprang into Nüwa's mind.

Immediately, her flawless face showed an expression of surprise—she had actually been stirred by this thought!

Nüwa froze for a moment, her heart stirred, and the Peach Blossom Brew flew automatically into her hand as she gazed at this exquisite wine jar before her.

Nüwa nodded, tasting it—how could it be otherwise? She is simply desireless, yet not suppressing thoughts, not suppressing distractions—that is what the bald ones of the Western Paradise do, for they never cease their scheming.

She has thoughts and acts on them; she will not suppress them.

Her jade finger hooked, and the stopper on the wine jar seemed to come alive, opening automatically.

The stopper was pulled out, and the wine aroma instantly overflowed from the jar.

Compared to the previous ethereal scent, the current aroma is more substantial and more intoxicating.

If before there were only threads of sweet fragrance, now the wine's flavor blending directly elevates the aroma.

After all, this is alcohol!

Looking at the flower petals floating above, Nüwa raised her eyebrows, and her entire face became lively.

Presentation, not bad!

Even if it is a Holy Person, for pleasing things, one will also favor them a bit more.

Holding the wine jar, vermilion lips lightly touching, streams of wine entering the mouth, Nüwa's eyes, which had a monotonous expression, instantly became colorful.

Good wine to drink, sweet and clear, yet mixed with the mellow richness of wine aroma, long on the palate, making the heart and spirit sway.

Nüwa lightly leaned against the main seat, body and mind feeling only a sense of indescribable ease and comfort; the wine had a slight spiciness, stimulating the tip of the tongue, yet it would not abruptly cause some discomfort.

Clear wine entering the throat, there was not a trace of burning sensation, yet in the stomach it transformed into a warm current.

The medicinal effect of the flat peach also followed and arose, -accompanied by warmth nourishing the entire body, truly extraordinarily miraculous.

Nüwa's holy countenance at this moment entirely turned into surprise; the flavor of this peach blossom brew, she likes!

I don't know how the Lady will ultimately treat her peach blossom brew; Xuan Feng paced back and forth outside the palace gate, her long skirt kicked up in arcs, her face worried.

She worries for nothing else, only for the future of the wine and dishes bought with her own hard-earned money.

Xuan Feng anxiously scratched her hair, worried and troubled; the peach blossom brew, just now, in her haste, she had messed up into chaos; the Lady seeing it would not be annoyed, directly destroying the peach blossom brew!

Thinking of this, Xuan Feng felt a wave of despair, but please, don't throw it away!

She still waits, if in the end the peach blossom brew remains intact, to have it taken away; after all, this jar she retrieved can be drunk!

Xuan Feng closed her eyes, her heart began to pray; Lady above, if you don't want to drink the Flying Dragon Soup, you can just throw it away, but please show mercy to the peach blossom brew, she still waits to drink it!

Gulp, a faint sound of swallowing, Nüwa's face showed a hint of pleasure, completely different from her previous suppression.

Truly enjoyable!

Nüwa slightly raised her head, revealing her fair neck; this delicious thing, she has never drunk it even once!

Originally, her sense of alcohol was ordinary, neither disliking nor liking it, but this jar of peach blossom brew completely shattered her view on alcohol.

Nüwa felt she seemed to have fallen in love with this flavor; although it sounds extremely absurd, this is the fact.

The emotion arising in her heart at this moment, originally alcohol could still be this delicious!

So delicious, saying it is a divine object among wines, seems... not excessive either!

Originally, Xuan Feng had not exaggerated; Nüwa nodded, although she had thought in her heart, no food could move her.

But since it has appeared, then eat more; once accustomed to eating it, then it will no longer move her!

Before the hall, Xuan Feng sat on the steps, lightly biting her lower lip, her heart began various analyses.
