Chapter 1153: The Big Eater

"Do you want more?" Chen Yu looked at her as if she still had an appetite and asked speechlessly.

Liu Xian slurped a bowl of pork intestine noodles into her stomach, then, looking as if she hadn't had enough, nodded frantically.

"This girl can eat too much, right?" The stall owner was a bit unconvinced; he had been a famous big eater in the neighborhood, but in his early years, his limit was just one steamer of buns.

But now, seeing someone who could eat more than him, he was a bit skeptical.

"She can eat. How many ingredients do you have left? Prepare them all for her," Chen Yu said with a smile. Thinking of the amount of food Liu Xian could eat—several pigs and sheep at once—he felt that for her, this amount of food really wasn't much.

"Friend, I have three big steamers of buns here, and fifty portions of noodles and vermicelli. Can she finish it all?" The stall owner didn't believe it.

"Go and prepare it; I'm buying out your stall today," Chen Yu said, taking out a card and placing it there. "There's enough money, don't worry and just prepare it."

"That's not what I meant. Heh, I've been in business for decades and have never seen anyone who can eat more than me," the stall owner laughed. "Not to mention anything else, if she can finish this whole steamer of buns, she can eat whatever she wants in my shop today."

"Are you sure?" Chen Yu looked at the stall owner gloomily. This little boss must have never experienced a harsh lesson; this little bit of food really wasn't much to Liu Xian.

"It's a deal." Liu Xian stretched her neck, swallowed a bowl of wontons into her stomach, and then looked at the boss with glowing eyes, afraid he would go back on his word.

"Fine, I don't believe you can finish it." The stall owner, looking unconvinced, carried the steamer of buns to her and called out, "Everyone, be my witness."

This shout worked well; those eating nearby and passersby all gathered around to watch the excitement.

Liu Xian didn't stand on ceremony; she grabbed the buns and ate them, stuffing five or six into her mouth at once. Anyone who didn't know better would think she hadn't eaten for half a month.

A steamer of buns was snatched clean by her in less than five minutes, and more importantly, she still looked like she hadn't had enough after finishing.

The boss was dumbfounded. Honestly, in all his years, he had never seen anyone who could eat like this.

"Haha, she finished it, she really finished it."

"Old Liu has met his match."

"Well, he wasted his morning setting up the stall today." A group of people burst into laughter.

"Fine, fine, a bet is a bet. Eat as much as you want, I'll go prepare it." Old Liu nodded helplessly and placed all the remaining buns in front of Liu Xian.

Then he ran back to start boiling noodles and vermicelli, while Liu Xian sat there triumphantly, eating and drinking without mercy.

The result was that several large steamers of buns and dozens of portions of breakfast were eaten clean by her.

Chen Yu was between laughter and tears; he quietly left a few thousand yuan for the boss and then left with Liu Xian.

"With your ability, if you did a food broadcast, you would definitely be popular," Chen Yu said suddenly.

"What is a food broadcast?" Liu Xian asked curiously.

"A live stream on an internet platform, eating a meal a day, gaining followers, and then doing commercial collaborations to monetize," Ning Ruoxue said. "You could completely support yourself this way."

"Is that so? I don't really understand," Liu Xian said, looking a bit pitiful.

"It's okay if you don't understand; I'll have Ruoxue teach you later," Chen Yu said.

"But I still have to cultivate," Liu Xian thought about the Meditation Realm she hadn't yet passed and sighed helplessly.

The Meditation Realm is the final hurdle for even a Spirit with deep cultivation; once this realm is passed, one's Demon Breath will fade away, making one no different from a human. One can enter the world as a human, which can also be considered a form of cultivation.

However, out of ten who attempt this hurdle, not one can pass it, because this is a struggle against the heavens, so the Heavenly Dao blocks it tightly.

"You don't need to worry about this. If you promise me one thing, I will help you pass this hurdle," Chen Yu said.

"Really?" Liu Xian was overjoyed. She was clear about Chen Yu's strength; he was fully capable of helping her pass this Meditation Realm hurdle.

"Of course it's true. And with me covering you in the future, you can enter and leave major cities and various places freely, and even the people from Dragon Breath won't dare to stop you," Chen Yu said.

"I agree." Liu Xian didn't even think about it and nodded in agreement immediately.

"You aren't even going to ask what the conditions are? You just agreed?" Chen Yu turned his head to look at Liu Xian.

"Since the Immortal is willing to entrust it to me, that means I will definitely be able to complete it."

Liu Xian smiled, "And the Immortal is a good person and would never make things difficult for others, so I can do this."

"Alright, your task is to protect her," Chen Yu pointed at Ning Ruoxue.

"Protect me?" Ning Ruoxue was startled. "I don't need protection."

"You don't?" Chen Yu gave a bitter smile. "Have you forgotten what happened in the case during the last mission?"

"This..." Ning Ruoxue was speechless. Indeed, the last incident was quite dangerous; in her line of work, she encountered many dangers.

But the thought of a snake following her made her skin crawl.

"Don't worry, once she passes the Meditation Realm, she will shed her foul aura and be reborn as a human, much like a newborn baby."

Chen Yu saw her hesitation and smiled, "It won't have any impact on your life."

"Miss Ning, don't worry, I won't affect you," Liu Xian said, fearing she would lose this opportunity.

"Alright then." Ning Ruoxue hesitated for a moment but nodded. She wasn't afraid, but it was true that women were naturally afraid of snakes.

However, looking at Liu Xian, her behavior and manners were almost the same as a human's, with no other flaws besides eating a lot.

"It's a deal. After we rescue Hui Xian, I will help you pass the Meditation Realm," Chen Yu said calmly.

"Good." Liu Xian was overjoyed.

In fact, beings like them, who are demon-cultivating Immortals, all really want to find a strong person to rely on.

But generally speaking, those in Dharma Cultivation look down on them. Now that she had a strong person to rely on, she could sleep soundly in the future.

Suddenly, Liu Xian's body stiffened, and she couldn't help but stop in her tracks, because two men were walking toward her. These two men were wearing black suits and were emitting a sense of Mental Power.

They were people from Dragon Breath, and by the looks of it, they were directly under the jurisdiction of Dragon Breath. In that instant, Liu Xian felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

She looked at the two people in front of her, trembling, not even daring to move.

But after the two arrived, they looked around, and one of them said with a puzzled expression, "Strange, there was clearly a trace of Demon Breath here."

"Yes, and that Demon Breath was similar to the Hui Xian we have imprisoned. How did it disappear when we got here?" the other person also said with a strange look.

"Impossible, my Demon Seeking Mirror wouldn't be wrong," one of them took out a Copper Mirror and looked at it with some confusion.

This was his Demon Seeking Mirror, a Spirit Tool. If there was anything abnormal nearby, the Demon Seeking Mirror would issue a warning. But just now, their Demon Seeking Mirror had already issued a warning, yet when they arrived, they couldn't find anything at all, which was almost impossible.
