Chapter 303: Eating Meat

The Cheng Mansion kitchen maids nearby skillfully picked up sharp knives and began to process the rabbit.

The kitchen maids used knives to cut open the rabbit's abdomen, removed its internal organs, and cleaned it thoroughly. Then, they used their hands to gently pull, separating the rabbit's tendons from the muscles, and carefully trimmed them away.

Finally, the rabbit's bones were separated from the meat, leaving behind a large piece of fresh, tender, and juicy rabbit meat. Although the entire process was cruel, the kitchen maids' techniques were skillful, and their movements were swift and precise.

That night, the Cheng Mansion was brightly lit, and laughter and joy, accompanied by waves of alluring fragrance, permeated the entire residence.

Cheng Feng sat at the head of the main hall, a smile on his face, his eyes filled with anticipation for tonight's feast. On the table, various rabbit meat delicacies were arranged neatly.

The red oil of the spicy rabbit head shimmered with an alluring luster, the five-spice rabbit legs emitted a mouth-watering aroma, and the shredded rabbit in cold sauce was refreshing and appetizing, making one's appetite soar.

The mouth-watering rabbit meat delicacies were still on the table, but the atmosphere had quietly changed, becoming a bit more warm and tender.

Cheng Feng raised his glass, his gaze sweeping gently over every wife and Concubine present, and laughed: "Come, everyone, don't be shy. It is truly rare to have the good fortune to enjoy such delicacies today. Especially this Strange Beast Meat, it is even rarer to see. I hope everyone can enjoy themselves to the fullest."

Hearing this, the women raised their glasses in response, their faces beaming with happy smiles. They were either gentle as water or lively and agile, each with her own charm, yet they all felt closer because of this sentence from Cheng Feng. The fragrance of wine and meat intertwined, making the whole night exceptionally beautiful.

Considering that the Strange Beast Meat might be too nourishing, Cheng Feng's parents only tasted a little, put down their chopsticks after eating a small piece, and turned to look lovingly at the lively scene of their children and grandchildren, their eyes filled with satisfaction and gratification.

The two elders knew that the women still needed to replenish their Blood Qi for a while, so they left the table directly to rest.

Cheng Feng's many wives and Concubines had no such concerns after the two elders left the table.

They either picked up a spicy rabbit head to savor the unique spicy and fresh fragrance, took a light bite of a five-spice rabbit leg to feel the tenderness of the meat and the perfect fusion of spices, or, even more so, picked up their chopsticks to pick and choose from the shredded rabbit in cold sauce, enjoying that refreshing taste.

As the night breeze brushed by, the air in the inner courtyard of the Cheng Mansion seemed to become scorching hot. The great nourishing effect of the Strange Beast Meat was vividly reflected in the women.

Whether sitting or standing, their faces were flushed, and fine beads of sweat kept sliding down their foreheads; it was clear that their internal Blood Qi was surging and difficult to suppress.

Some Concubines who had just entered the Strength Refining stage felt it even more intensely. They were originally in the early stages of Strength Refining, and their internal Blood Qi was not strong to begin with. Eating this Strange Beast Meat now was like adding fuel to the fire; they felt as if they had endless strength in their bodies but nowhere to vent it, so they could only bite their lips and endure that impulse.

Seeing this, Cheng Feng's mouth curled into a faint smile; he knew the benefits of this Strange Beast Meat and understood how these Concubines were feeling at this moment.

He stood up at the right time and clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention: "Alright, everyone, those who feel their Blood Qi overflowing, go to the courtyard to practice boxing and digest it. This is a rare opportunity for cultivation, do not waste it."

Hearing this, the women nodded one after another, their eyes flashing with excitement. They stood up one after another; some put on outer garments, while others rushed directly into the courtyard, preparing to start practicing.

Cheng Feng followed closely behind. He walked into the courtyard and watched his wives and Concubines, some with whistling fist winds and others with flying palm shadows, his heart filled with gratification.

These were all his women.

Those with low strength had all gone out to practice boxing and digest, so those remaining at the table were naturally the ones with strong strength.

Cheng Feng returned to the table and was busy hosting: "Come, eat as much as you can, there are still three Strange Beasts left! I hope it can help you break through your bottlenecks."

The five who stayed behind were Zhao Wei, Xu Miao, Su Min, Cai'er, and Yu Niang.

After three rounds of wine and five courses of food, the five began to discuss today's harvest—those captured Strange Beasts.

As the Principal Wife of the Cheng family, Zhao Wei elegantly took a sip of wine, a smile on her lips, and asked softly: "Husband, I heard that Strange Beasts all have unique hiding techniques. How exactly did you discover them?" Her eyes flashed with curiosity and anticipation, as if she had once again witnessed Cheng Feng's surprising abilities.

Hearing this, Cheng Feng's mouth curled into a mysterious smile, and a trace of pride flashed in his eyes.

"Hahaha, my wife, you don't know, but your husband has his own clever methods. I didn't hold much hope originally, but the result did indeed surprise me too."

"Although that fierce tiger was exceptionally ferocious, in front of us Bone Refining Martial Artists, it was nothing more than a slightly larger beast."

"As for that turtle, although it seemed clumsy and slow, it actually contained rich vitality. I think it will be very nourishing when used for stewing soup." His words revealed his confidence in his own strength and his familiarity with Strange Beasts.

Su Min, who was sitting on the side, also had a rosy complexion and gazed affectionately at the confident Cheng Feng in the main seat. Ripples appeared in her eyes, like a pool of spring water being blown by a breeze. She secretly rejoiced in her heart that she could become a member of this family and enjoy this peace.

You must know that even in the Prefecture City, the number of families that can obtain Strange Beast nourishment is extremely limited. After all, Strange Beasts usually live in deep mountains and old forests, and they are good at hiding; it is not an easy task to hunt them down relying solely on the strength of a Martial Artist.

This led to an imbalance in supply and demand, making Strange Beast Meat exceptionally popular in the market. Due to the shortage of supply, Strange Beast Meat that just entered the market would soon be snapped up.

For those families without Lianzhan Martial Artist, they simply could not compete with large families that had Lianzhan Martial Artist as pillars. Naturally, the strong could take it all; the stronger the person, the more resources they could obtain, and thus become even stronger.

Seeing that the Cheng Mansion could now enjoy such treatment, a feeling of being moved could not help but well up in Su Min's heart.

Although Su Min's family did not lack strength, it was only on very rare occasions that they could eat a whole Strange Beast. Women often worship the strong; originally, Su Min had accepted the status quo and thought that everything was just like that.

But the current situation made her change her mind. She discovered that, as it turned out, she still had the opportunity to pursue a better life.

Furthermore, a subtle change also occurred in Su Min's heart. She began to realize that perhaps she could get more from Cheng Feng. This thought lingered in her mind, causing ripples deep in her heart.

Yu Niang and Cai'er also couldn't handle eating anymore, so they went out together to practice boxing. The remaining three women in the room continued to enjoy this sumptuous meal.

Seeing them tasting the Strange Beast Meat so leisurely and contentedly, Cai'er on the side couldn't help but clench her fists and secretly made up her mind: "It seems I still need to work harder!!"
