Chapter 69

Chen Nuo didn't care what the two demons were thinking; he had found them bored and, out of kindness, brought this thing out.

Before, when accompanying Sun Wukong, they would play cards when bored, but back then the small shop never had customers, so they could only play Golden Flower Bomb.

Now they can actually play Landlord Fight.

Turning his head to look at Heavenly Peng still standing dazed at the doorway, Chen Nuo said: "Not coming in?"

Heavenly Peng pointed in surprise and said: "Manager Chen, isn't he the Ox Demon King?"

How could the renowned great strength Ox Demon King of the demon race be here, and dressed like this, looking like a menial servant?

Chen Nuo said calmly: "Yeah, now he's a menial servant running errands for me. Any problem?"

"No no!" Heavenly Peng hurriedly shook his head, smiling all over his face.

"Manager Chen, awesome!"

"It's not early today; why did you come at this time?"

Before, Heavenly Peng always came in the morning; according to him, a good start each day is eating Chaos Residence.

Mentioning this, Heavenly Peng slapped his forehead, almost forgetting something important, and quickly said: "Manager Chen, Monkey Brother has become an official in the Heavenly Court."

"Damn! Monkey Brother joined the Heavenly Court!" Before Chen Nuo could say anything, the Ox Demon King and Peng Demon King couldn't sit still.

The demon race and the Heavenly Court are sworn enemies; Monkey Brother joining the Heavenly Court—won't something happen?

Did he really go up there?

Chen Nuo wasn't particularly surprised in his heart.

"What position?" Chen Nuo asked.

Monkey Brother was pardoned and appointed twice in the Heavenly Court, so from this we can roughly calculate the current timeline.

"This..." Heavenly Peng said with some embarrassment: "I don't know either."

To avoid losing face in public, after ascending he directly returned to his manor.

Chen Nuo nodded, didn't say more, and instead asked: "What to eat?"

Heavenly Peng chuckled and said: "I haven't come for a while; Manager Chen, what new dishes have you introduced?"

Chen Nuo rolled his eyes: New dish? You think that thing is Chinese cabbage!

If not for this awakening effect, he could whip up a Manhan Full Course in minutes!

"There is new wine, though it's not ready yet." Chen Nuo spread his hands, helpless—this Peach Blossom Brew is just too popular.

First, Sun Wukong took away a lot, then Tianyi bought it all, and finally the remaining bits were wiped out by the Three Maidens before they left.

"Like that." Unable to try something new, Heavenly Peng's face showed some disappointment, but he quickly resigned himself.

Even without new dishes, Manager Chen's cooking is top-notch in the Three Realms—never gets boring!

"Manager Chen, then give me one portion of Fragrant Crispy Fried ***."

This is what he's been eating lately; according to probability, it's also the easiest to awaken divine abilities.

Heavenly Peng stood up, walked to the crystal ball, preparing to charge the recently scavenged treasures.

"Ding, congratulations host for obtaining post-heaven..."

After handing over most of the scavenged treasures, Heavenly Peng also erased the black trash obtained from digging tunnels in reverse with Xiao Tian.

Not knowing how much this thing was worth, Heavenly Peng thought, then placed it on top.

Following that, Chen Nuo's mind again heard the prompt tone.

"Ding, congratulations host for obtaining Pre-Heaven Treasure Slaying God Spear Tip, equivalent to one hundred consumptions, whether to transform into merit?"

Pre-Heaven Treasure Slaying God Spear!?

Chen Nuo widened his eyes—this is the First Innate Attack Killer! Speaking solely of killing power, it's still above the Pangu Banner!

But this thing wasn't shattered into fragments scattered across the Wilderness during the battle between the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou and Dao Ancestor Hongjun?

How did it end up in Heavenly Peng's hands?

After thinking it over,

Heavenly Peng and Xiao Tian recently formed the lively Three Realms Treasure Hunt Squad.

Chen Nuo's mouth twitched, somewhat speechless—could it really be that Xiao Tian sniffed it out?

Even this single fragment matches the Purple Lightning Hammer given to him by Tianyi.

Indeed worthy of being an Innate Treasure.

Glancing at the dazed Heavenly Peng, Chen Nuo secretly nodded—no wonder it was sent directly; turns out he didn't recognize its value!

This thing, even if a Saint saw it, would stir their heart.

Good thing—naturally it should be kept!

Upon receiving the feedback, Heavenly Peng was completely stunned: My goodness, one hundred consumption opportunities—this isn't a dream, is it!

Heavenly Peng opened his mouth wide; since activating the Chaos Residence VIP, his balance had never exceeded thirty times, let alone such a huge sum!

That strange treasure really isn't simple; Heavenly Peng also counts as having seen something.

An ordinary Golden Immortal treasure can offset one consumption; one piece for one hundred consumptions—such a treasure's grade, he dares not even imagine.

After calming the shock in his heart, Heavenly Peng bloomed with joy—this time he really picked up a great bargain!

Xiao Tian really doesn't recognize value, thinking something unusable is trash, or maybe Heavenly Peng sees all clearly!

If that stinky dog knew, he'd surely be furious half to death.

Heavenly Peng's joy rose to his eyebrows; he wished to fly immediately to Guanjiangkou to circle and mock the stinky dog, as long as Yang Jian doesn't hit him, he could turn all day!

"Wait a moment, Fragrant Crispy Fried Chicken comes soon!"

Heavenly Peng happy, Chen Nuo even happier—if every time were this efficient, that'd be great.

Chen Nuo went to the back kitchen; inside the room remained only Heavenly Peng and the two demons, the scene once awkward.

After all, positions differ: one side is Heavenly Court officials who slay demons and eliminate monsters, the other side is demon kings dominating a region of the demon race.

Looking at each other in silence, but when it comes to thick-skinnedness, few can surpass Tianpeng.

"Hey, brother, what were you guys playing just now? It looks quite interesting." Tianpeng pointed at the playing cards still not cleared from the table with a playful grin.

On the other side, Nezha was boredly crouching a short distance away; he didn't go in right away, otherwise if he bumped into Tianpeng head-on, wouldn't that be rather embarrassing?

It would affect Nezha, the Third Prince's, radiant image!

His eyes carefully scrutinized the entrance of Chaos Residence, and he muttered to himself: "This is too arrogant, isn't it?"

Calling oneself Chaos?

Nezha considered himself a bold and fearless person, and he simply wouldn't dare say such a thing—who knows what marvel this shop actually holds?

After Chen Nuo finished making the fragrant crispy fried chicken and came out, he saw a harmonious scene.

"Two three!"

"Big you, two four!"

This is probably the charm of the game.

Chen Nuo didn't disturb the already engrossed three, but instead placed the fragrant crispy fried chicken on the side table, walked forward, and watched with interest as the chickens pecked at each other.

Although it was Tianpeng's first time encountering this, his luck was very good.

One deck of cards actually had three bombs—no matter how randomly played, they could defeat the Ox Demon King and the Peng Demon King.

"This thing is quite fun to play." Tianpeng's eyes, filled with the joy of victory, showed interest.

He was still experiencing this interesting thing for the first time—just some simple cards, yet they could have so many combinations; truly, it is interesting.

Tianpeng lifted his head and saw Chen Nuo observing, quickly stood up, and said with a chuckle: "Hehe, Chen the shopkeeper, I'm just curious, came over to take a look, you play, you play!"

After saying that, Tianpeng approached the table with the fragrant crispy fried chicken placed on it.

Just as he was about to pick up his chopsticks, he suddenly remembered what Sun Wukong had told him.

"Chen the shopkeeper, what time is it now?" Tianpeng hurriedly asked.

"There's a time bell over there—you check it yourself." Chen Nuo pointed casually.
