Chapter 96

"Ding! Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting cool by force. Reward: 30 Acting Cool Points!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting cool by force. Reward: 40 Acting Cool Points!"

With two consecutive system notification sounds, Xu Que had already roasted the skin of the chicken wings until it was golden, crispy, and tender. He brushed on another layer of honey and sprinkled on cumin powder and chili powder. The fragrance instantly covered the medicinal scent in the pill furnace.

The crowd was stunned, standing there foolishly.

Chicken wings... can they also be roasted to have this kind of fragrance?

Wait, that's not right, Big Brother. You haven't finished refining the pill yet. Are you not planning to keep this furnace of pills? It's full of precious medicinal materials!

"Dead monkey, what are you roasting? Hurry up and let me taste if it's poisonous!"

"Great Sage Brother, I want some too!"

Suddenly, two figures ran over. It was the two brats, Su Xiaoqi and Xiao Yu, who snatched the chicken wings from Xu Que's hands.

"Holy shit, it's a good thing I roasted enough. Hey, you guys come over and eat too! This is my Zha Tian Bang's unique roasted chicken wings; there's only one such place in the whole world!" Xu Que smiled and greeted Su Ling'er and the others.

"Wow, so delicious!"

"Great Sage Brother, you are so amazing. You can play the zither, refine pills, and roast chicken wings. It's so delicious!" Xiao Yu and Su Xiaoqi bit into the chicken wings, their faces full of the happiness of foodies.

……

Several elderly aliens were helpless, feeling very worried about the pill furnace. What if it exploded because no one was watching it?

But having lived for so many years, it seemed to be the first time they had smelled such fragrant food. Coupled with the fact that Xiao Yu and Su Xiaoqi were eating so happily, they couldn't help but feel their appetites whetted and simply couldn't hold back!

They were caught in a dilemma!

"Why don't we let the pill furnace stop?"

"That's right! Look at Little Friend Sun's divine soul power; it seems to be more than half weaker than before. Maybe he felt he couldn't support it, so he ran off to roast chicken wings."

"That's true. After all, having just finished refining a furnace of Spirit Nourishing Pills, his divine soul must have been damaged. Look at his pale complexion; he must have consumed a lot."

"I didn't expect Little Friend Sun to be such a loyal person. In order to help the Queen survive the heavenly tribulation the day after tomorrow, he didn't care about the damage to his divine soul and actually insisted on refining a second furnace of pills."

"It's a pity that he has his limits after all and couldn't persist. He must be afraid of losing face in front of us, so he suddenly ran off to roast chicken wings."

"Then we have to cooperate and give him a way out. But... how can we say it without making him feel embarrassed?"

Several people began to discuss in low voices.

They all mistakenly believed that Xu Que had consumed too much after refining the Spirit Nourishing Pills, so he couldn't finish refining this furnace of pills, which was why he used roasting chicken wings to save some face.

But in reality, half of Xu Que's divine soul was drawn away by the system to be responsible for alchemy. He really had nothing to do, so he ran over to roast chicken wings. As for his pale complexion... it was also because his divine soul power was temporarily weakened and his physical body wasn't used to it.

But the crowd didn't know this, and they were embarrassed to directly ask Xu Que to turn off the pill furnace, so they all cast their gazes toward Su Ling'er.

Su Ling'er pursed her lips and didn't say much. She walked straight to Xu Que and said softly: "Sun Wukong, extinguish the pill furnace. You have already performed a great service. These Spirit Nourishing Pills are enough for me to survive the lightning tribulation; you don't need to refine new pills for me anymore, otherwise it will cause greater damage to your divine soul."

"How can that be? Those few Spirit Nourishing Pills are definitely not enough to survive the tribulation. From what I can see, the power of your lightning tribulation the day after tomorrow will definitely not be simple. It's better to be well-prepared. Don't worry, leave it to me!" Xu Que smiled, patted his chest to guarantee, and by the way, handed a freshly roasted chicken wing to Su Ling'er.

Su Ling'er didn't reach out to take it, but looked at Xu Que quietly, as if moved by his words, her heart trembling slightly.

'Why is he so good to me...'

'Even though his divine soul power is so severely damaged, he still wants to continue refining pills for me!'

'Even though his complexion is already so pale and his body is weak, he still forces a smile. Is he afraid of losing face... or is he afraid of making me worry?'

……

"Ding! Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting cool invisibly. Reward: 40 Acting Cool Points!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for this invisible acting cool, which is slightly fatal and has aroused the favor of the opposite sex. Reward: 100 Acting Cool Points!"

Holy shit?

What's the situation?

Can roasting chicken wings arouse the favor of the opposite sex?

Xu Que was instantly startled. With a thought, he hurriedly asked the system: "Which opposite sex has a favorable impression of me? It couldn't be those two little foodies, Su Xiaoqi and Xiao Yu, right? Oh my god, a pair of chicken wings conquered them? But this isn't very good, right? They haven't grown up yet. Although I admit that fox girls and rabbit girls are very tempting to me, I still have to wait for them to grow up..."

Xu Que muttered a series of words to the system, but the system replied coldly: "The host's authority is insufficient, and the system level is insufficient. Temporarily unable to answer this question!"

"Damn it, what use are you? You can't even answer the most critical question!" Xu Que said angrily.

The system simply didn't respond again.

This made Xu Que extremely depressed. There were only three females at the scene, two little lolis and one little young lady. At this time, someone suddenly told you that one of them had a favorable impression of you, but wouldn't tell you which one. Could he not be depressed?

"Sun Wukong, thank you!" At this moment, Su Ling'er suddenly reached out and took the roasted chicken wing from Xu Que's hand, revealing a sweet smile on her face.

This smile could be described as charming in a thousand ways, a smile that could topple cities, enough to turn all living beings upside down!

Since Xu Que met Su Ling'er, he had never seen her smile like this, and for a moment, he was almost stunned.

'Could it be that this Nine-Tailed Demon Fox is having a favorable impression of me?'

He was quite suspicious in his heart.

"Sun Wukong, you really don't need to refine the pills anymore. I understand your intentions, so let's stop here. If you force yourself to refine pills again, it will cause permanent damage to your divine soul." Su Ling'er said softly.

Xu Que was unhappy when he heard this. What do you mean by forcing myself to refine pills? I'm clearly refining them very easily.

He shook his head and said firmly: "Don't say any more. I've decided to refine this pill."

"You... why bother..." Su Ling'er was extremely touched, her eyes even welling up with tears.

She had never met a man willing to sacrifice so much for her.

You must know that once permanent damage is caused to the divine soul, it will affect one's future prospects. In severe cases, one's cultivation realm might never advance again.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting cool invisibly. Reward: 50 Acting Cool Points!"

Xu Que heard the notification sound in his mind, but he couldn't care about it, because he had already discovered the moisture in Su Ling'er's eyes, which startled him.

What's the situation? Could it be that she was moved to tears by me? That's impossible; I haven't even started flirting with her yet.

Could it be... that she was angered to tears by me?

Thinking of this, Xu Que immediately smiled bitterly and hurriedly said: "Don't be like this! My divine soul power is really not damaged, and this pill can definitely be refined. By the way, by the way, didn't we just refine ten Spirit Nourishing Pills? Look, you have one in your hand; I'll just take it."

Saying this, he snatched the Spirit Nourishing Pill from Su Ling'er's hand and swallowed it directly.

"No!" Su Ling'er was instantly shocked and opened her mouth wide, "That... that's the one I licked."
