Chapter 800: Xiao Feng's Self-Inflicted Humiliation
I... huh?
Da Bai tilted his head and was stunned.
Xiao Feng also froze for a moment.
He was just casually explaining that he didn't have god-tier meat to feed Da Bai, just grabbing some ordinary fish and shrimp to get by, and didn't mean to push the blame onto Mi.
He never expected her to mistakenly think that he was being scolded by Da Bai for having nothing to feed Da Bai.
Uh... no need to be so serious.
For a moment, he felt a bit embarrassed.
Da Bai whispered, "White-haired Fairy Maiden, I was just saying it casually; I'm just a lowly mount, what right do I have to blame him? Xiao Feng is a real troublemaker, he's deliberately stirring up conflict, trying to push off the debt of a good meal he owes me. Let's not fall for his trick; put this away, and let's just catch a fish to eat."
Xiao Feng glared, "Come on, Da Bai, you yell at me but you're so gentle with pretty girls?"
This stupid bird, indeed is a lecherous pervert!
"What's the problem? If you're capable, grow a pair of breasts yourself; without breasts, what are you yelling about?" Da Bai retorted without mercy.
Xiao Feng's mouth twitched.
As expected of Da Bai, he's truly a match for him!
In order not to accidentally hurt little Mi, this time he didn't argue back with Da Bai, just snorted: "Can't be bothered to exchange insults with you, Mi, put away the Desolate Moon Wolf; Da Bai doesn't deserve god-tier food, just catch a demi-god fish for him."
Mi looked at Xiao Feng, then at Da Bai, and thought for a moment.
Then she said, "Alright." and put away the Desolate Moon Wolf's corpse.
Next, her figure flashed, turning into golden light as she flew above the river.
A golden spear appeared in her hand, aimed at the river, and she threw it!
The spear sank into the river water, killing an aquatic monster.
Mi gestured with her right hand, and the spear flew back, impaling a large fish over three meters long.
"Master, will this do?"
Before Xiao Feng could answer, Da Bai complained: "A mid Nascent Soul stage carp has too many bones, it's not tasty, not tasty at all."
Mi said nothing, threw away the big fish, and threw another spear into the river.
Then she fished out an even larger fish.
She continued asking: "How about this one?"
Da Bai then shook his head: "An early Nascent Soul stage water tiger fish is horrible to eat, not even as good as gnawing on a sweet potato!"
Mi discarded the catch again and caught a third one.
This time Da Bai satisfiedly said: "Not bad, not bad, this is a spirit-formed large perch, also found on Wind Spirit Island, fresh and delicious, best for stew."
Then Mi flew back carrying a super-large perch 3.4 meters long.
Such a huge fish, the grill can't even hold it.
Xiao Feng pulled out the god-tier great blade 【Tiger Demon Slaying God Blade】 to use as a fish knife, on the spot scaling and gutting it, removing the innards, then cleaning it.
Let alone, this god-tier blade is quite handy!
No need to recognize a master, using it as an ordinary kitchen knife is extremely sharp!
After slaughtering it, he had Mi hang the large perch on the spear, using the god-tier artifact as a grill, and applying fire magic to grill it.
Hmm... to avoid burning it to ashes, he also needed to deliberately control the heat, lowering the temperature.
After all that, it still quite drains willpower, but it's also not bad as a training method.
Grilling the fish took nearly half an hour; Mi hovered three meters high, holding the spear with the large fish skewered in one hand, waiting for Xiao Feng to slow-cook it, her expression awkward the whole time.
As the master's own god-tier artifact, being used like this by its owner made her feel depressed to death.
If anyone else treated her weapon with such disrespect, she would definitely stab them to death with a single spear and hang their corpse above it to dry for three days and three nights!
But since it's her master... she can only obey.
"Hurry up, I'm about to starve~"
Da Bai urged from the side, hungry and thirsty.
Xiao Feng laughed: "Don't rush, it's not seasoned yet!"
He had many storage artifacts; one of them happened to contain seasonings from the cooking profession.
Although he wasn't a chef, playing around with it by instinct was still fine.
The fish had already been marinated by him earlier; now he poured on more sauce and sprinkled cumin powder.
Tsk tsk~
Da Bai was drooling to the point of crying!
The other fish in the river... were also scared to tears!
"Alright, done grilling, wrap up!"
Smelling the fragrant magical grilled fish, Xiao Feng satisfiedly put away the fire magic.
"Here I come!" Da Bai happily stretched out his beak, pecked off a piece of fish meat, and started eating heartily.
Mi softly said: "Can I put it down now?"
Xiao Feng nodded: "Sure, put it on the stone."
Mi, as if pardoned, immediately flicked her hand and tossed the grilled fish onto the stone.
Then she lovingly hugged her spear and landed by the river to wash it.
Xiao Feng again pulled out the god-tier great blade, cut off a piece of the grilled fish tail, tore off a piece and tasted it.
"Hmm... not bad, not bad, exterior crispy, interior tender, meat delicious, flavor great, out of 100 I'd give it 99!" He shamelessly self-evaluated.
He said.
After taking a bite of the grilled fish, the system also popped up a prompt.
【You ate homemade grilled divine fish, max HP +50000, lasting 30 minutes!】
This dish's stats are actually quite high; in one bite it added 50 million to his max HP!
"I'm really a genius little chef; when I have free time I'll mess around with a life profession for fun!" Xiao Feng laughed.
"Tsk, it's far worse than the War Tavern's; out of 100 I'd give you at most 50!" Da Bai said disdainfully.
But his body was honest; he ate it with great delight!
Mi washed the spear for five minutes before feeling it clean, then put the weapon away.
Xiao Feng called out: "Little Mi, come over and have a bite; don't let your weapon's effort go to waste."
She came over unwillingly, and only after Xiao Feng's urging did she take a bite.
"How is it? Is the master's cooking still okay?" Xiao Feng waited with a squinting smile for her answer, looking pleased.
Unexpectedly, Mi slightly shook her head and said, "Not as good as my imperial chef's cooking."
Xiao Feng: ……
"Hahaha~ I laughed my head off, Xiao Feng you idiot, they're actually the State Lord, not some little girl—how could they not have eaten fine food! The White-haired Fairy Maiden did a great job! That's exactly how you slap his face; you can't always side with him like the fairies of Wind Spirit Island, or else this kind of man will eventually get overinflated!"
Da Bai laughed so hard he doubled over, the whole crane beside him lost itself in glee.
Xiao Feng felt a wave of gloom.
He's just an ordinary little player, of course he can't compare to the professional Shen Jie imperial chefs who have cooked for the State Lord for hundreds or even thousands of years.
"Ah, this round is self-inflicted humiliation; forget it, I'll just eat it myself!"
Xiao Feng sighed, silently eating the fish he himself had grilled.
Mi saw him being mocked by Da Bai and felt a bit guilty.
She quickly added: "It's… also not bad; it's the tastiest thing I've eaten in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield." Then she took several more big bites.
Such purely consoling remarks couldn't recover Xiao Feng's lost dignity.
Da Bai exposed him: "Yeah, yeah, if nothing unexpected happens, this is your first time eating cooked food in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield."
Mi was at a loss for words, not knowing how to respond, so she silently nibbled the fish, proving with her action that she still quite liked the dish.
Xiao Feng saw her eager-to-please look and couldn't help sighing, "The master-servant contract is really awesome!"
He opened the contract interface… wow! What a find! Loyalty already at 95!
The reward of a set of divine artifact armor and a divine artifact necklace directly outweighs a month's effort on He Er Na!
