Chapter 36: A Serious Man is the Handsomest
Under the pitch-black night sky, Xu Que brought over a pile of dry firewood, condensed a wisp of Fire Origin Spiritual Energy, and lit it directly.
The dry firewood instantly crackled, startling Zi Xuan and Princess Yan Yang awake at the same time.
"Young Hero Hua, you are..." Zi Xuan widened her eyes, looking stunned.
The three of them were running for their lives now, and you lit a fire in the middle of the night, wouldn't that attract the enemy?
Xu Que waved his hand and said indifferently: "After walking for a day, it's time to eat something. You don't have to worry about those assassins. Just now when I was picking up dry firewood, I happened to set up an ancestral great formation. Moreover, this formation can only be broken by Infant Transformation Stage experts. Once they approach, they will definitely die without a burial place!"
He said it very seriously, instantly stunning Zi Xuan and Princess Yan Yang.
"Young Hero Hua, you are actually proficient in the Dao of Formations?" Zi Xuan asked in surprise.
Xu Que smiled shyly: "Slightly understand, slightly understand, killing a few Infant Transformation Stage experts is no problem!"
"This..." Zi Xuan opened her mouth wide, very shocked.
Princess Yan Yang also furrowed her brows and said coldly: "I have never heard that there is any formation in this world that can kill Infant Transformation Stage experts."
Zi Xuan also hurriedly nodded: "That's right, Young Hero Hua, you should quickly extinguish the fire. If you attract those assassins, we will have nowhere to escape!"
"No problem, no problem, you believe me, that formation was passed down by my ancestors, it can definitely kill the Infant Transformation Stage in seconds!" Xu Que smiled lightly.
In fact, he hadn't set up any formation at all, he just didn't have the patience to waste time, and didn't want to waste time, so he prepared to take the opportunity to lure that group of assassins over and wipe them out in one go.
In this way, it would kill two birds with one stone: solving the danger of these two women, and earning experience and Acting Cool Points. It was simply a win-win situation.
Xu Que didn't say anything more, and took out a few pairs of chicken wings that had been marinated, put them on the grill, and started to barbecue!
Zi Xuan was surprised again: "Young Hero Hua, you... you eat this? These are chicken wings, there is no meat, they can't be eaten."
Princess Yan Yang also frowned, her expression becoming increasingly cold.
In the Imperial Palace, only various high-end ingredients would be placed on the table to become Imperial Meals. Like poultry such as chickens, they were generally not qualified to become Imperial Meals. So even if she was hungry, even if a whole chicken was placed in front of Princess Yan Yang, she wouldn't even look at it, let alone chicken wings that even ordinary people wouldn't eat?
But now, this "Hua Wuque" was taking such a big risk, just for a few pairs of grilled chicken wings!
"They can be eaten, you will know in a while." Xu Que was already a bit distracted. Although he liked flirting with girls, he loved showing off and food even more!
This could only blame Zi Xuan and the other for being covered in dust and dirt, how could they compare to the temptation of showing off and food. If the two washed up casually and restored their past appearance, it would be another matter.
"Chicken wings are such inferior ingredients, even mortals would discard them, yet you use them as food, it's a bit too hungry to choose food!" At this time, Princess Yan Yang spoke again, but her words were a bit harsh.
Xu Que was unhappy when he heard this, raised his brows, and responded lightly: "Oh!"
Princess Yan Yang's brows flashed with anger, and she was about to shout "Bold," but Zi Xuan reacted faster than her, pulled her sleeve, and signaled her not to be impulsive.
Princess Yan Yang took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "You extinguish the fire, as long as we reach the Imperial City, we will definitely treat you to high-end dishes..."
"Sizzle!"
At this moment, the skin of the chicken wings began to heat up, and the oil dripped into the dry firewood, making a light sound.
A rich fragrance instantly permeated, refreshing the heart.
Princess Yan Yang was stunned on the spot!
Zi Xuan was also dumbfounded, chicken wings... actually have this kind of fragrance?
Xu Que still had a faint smile on his mouth. He knew that the food in this world was not good. No matter how noble the status was, even if they had eaten all the delicacies of the mountains and seas, compared to these secret recipe grilled chicken wings, they were far behind!
"Last time, that old beggar, his cultivation seemed to be even more powerful than the Infant Transformation Stage, and he was bragging about eating all the delicacies in the world, but in the end, didn't he have to submit to my grilled chicken wings? You two women from the Imperial City, I don't believe you can resist this kind of deliciousness!" Xu Que secretly thought happily in his heart.
Afterwards, seeing that the heat was almost right, Xu Que took out a bottle of top-grade honey from thin air, held a small brush, and started brushing it on the chicken wings.
"Sizzle!"
A burst of white smoke rose, the fragrance became stronger and stronger, and the smell of charcoal grilling and special spices was absolutely enough to make one's index finger move.
Princess Yan Yang and Zi Xuan stared wide-eyed, unable to say a word.
Compared to hunger, they were more shocked. A few pairs of ordinary chicken wings could actually be turned into such delicious food in the hands of this "Hua Wuque," which was truly astonishing!
"Two young ladies, do you want mild spicy, medium spicy, or extreme spicy?" At this time, the honey in Xu Que's hand had turned into a bottle of chili powder, and he turned his head and asked the two women with a smile.
Princess Yan Yang didn't answer. Zi Xuan was stunned for a long time before she said blankly: "Mild... mild spicy!"
"Good!" Xu Que smiled and responded.
Pitch-black night, under the full moon, beside the firewood pile.
The warm charcoal fire illuminated Xu Que's exquisite face very brightly.
Only to see his wrist flick, and dots of chili powder fell like small red rain, lightly landing on the golden chicken wings, as if dotted with cinnabar!
This picture was deeply imprinted in the hearts of the two women.
After all... a man is the handsomest when he is serious!
After all... Xu Que still had an extra 20 points of Charisma bonus at this time!
Both of them stared blankly at Xu Que finishing all this, until two fragrant grilled wings were handed to them, and they suddenly came back to their senses.
"You've been tired all day, eat something, and then happily go back to the Imperial City." Xu Que showed a warm smile.
In this atmosphere, flowers are good and the moon is round, dry firewood and raging fire, a lone man and two... er, a lone man and two women, in the dead of night!
People's inner defenses are often the most relaxed at this time.
Xu Que's move and smile, plus the bonus of Charisma, caused a great impact on the two women!
One is a Princess, the other is the Princess's best friend, both of them have always been the center of attention, enjoying the feeling of stars holding the moon.
But they are proud daughters of heaven, whether it is Zi Xuan or Princess Yan Yang, their hearts are actually lonely and arrogant.
And now, Xu Que descended like a big brother, bringing them a feeling they had never had before. This feeling is called being taken care of and having someone to rely on!
Facing this sudden wonderful feeling, Zi Xuan chose to accept it.
She showed a sweet smile, looked at Xu Que with innocent eyes like a little girl, happily took the grilled chicken wings, and whispered a thank you!
And Princess Yan Yang, this lonely and arrogant genius whose heart was like an iceberg, was panicked when facing this feeling.
So she subconsciously chose to resist!
Her expression suddenly turned cold, she turned her head directly, and said indifferently: "Take it away, this Palace cannot eat these things."
As soon as the words came out, she was stunned, realizing she had said the wrong thing. A "this Palace" was enough to reveal too much information!
Zi Xuan's expression changed instantly!
Xu Que was also stunned! ===== CHAPTER 37 =====
