Mu Feiyang looked at the roasted meat in his hand, then at Little Black, who was still wolfing down roasted meat, and could not help but find it amusing.
He already possessed invincible cultivation. Even if he ate some heavenly treasure, he would feel nothing from it, aside from perhaps finding it better in taste.
Little Black's true form was the only Ink Jade Qilin in all heaven and earth, and its cultivation had reached the peak of the God-level. To it, these so-called demon beasts were likewise nothing more than food.
But Zhao Yingying before them was different. She was only in the Adamantine Realm now; level-six demon beasts were still far beyond her reach.
A demon beast's flesh contained a vast amount of spiritual energy. With her Adamantine Realm cultivation, she could not eat much at all, which was why she had broken through after taking only a few bites.
Mu Feiyang stopped paying attention to Zhao Yingying, who was still cultivating, and continued eating the roasted meat. Still, he was rather curious how many realms Zhao Yingying would break through.
More than an hour passed, and the roasted meat on the Grill Rack was finally finished by one man and one dog, though Little Black had eaten most of it.
Just as Mu Feiyang was putting away the Grill Rack and the other items, Zhao Yingying, who had been cultivating on the ground, finally stopped.
When Zhao Yingying opened her eyes and saw the Big Black Dog before her, she could not help letting out a cry. It had truly startled her.
After Little Black finished eating the roasted meat, it saw Zhao Yingying still sitting on the ground with her eyes closed. Curious, it had walked over to take a look at her.
Who would have thought that Zhao Yingying would finish cultivating right then? She had been happily rejoicing over her breakthrough, only to suddenly see Little Black standing before her. Naturally, it scared her half to death.
"Miss Zhao, are you alright?"
Mu Feiyang was rather speechless. Were all cultivators this timid? She had actually been frightened twice by a black dog.
"Young Master Mu, I'm fine. I was just a little slow to react. Thank you for your hospitality, Young Master Mu. It allowed me to break through three realms."
Hearing Mu Feiyang's voice, Zhao Yingying finally recovered from her fright. Her face was flushed as she answered somewhat embarrassedly.
"It's good that you're alright. It was only some roasted meat. You broke through through your own efforts, so what is there to thank me for?"
"It's getting late. Miss Zhao should rest early."
Zhao Yingying had previously been at the third level of the Adamantine Realm, but she had now reached the sixth level of the Adamantine Realm. Just a few bites of roasted meat had raised her cultivation by three realms.
"Alright!"
Zhao Yingying remembered that her elder sister was still inside and wondered how well she had recovered. After bidding Mu Feiyang farewell, she headed back toward the side room.
"Little Black, guard the gate for me."
Woof woof... Woof woof woof!
After giving Little Black an instruction, Mu Feiyang returned to his room. Seeing his daughter sleeping soundly, he smiled faintly, then carefully lay down and held his precious daughter as he drifted off to sleep.
Early the next morning, Mu Feiyang, still asleep, felt his nose itch. He could not help opening his eyes, only to discover that his daughter was playing by touching his nose.
"Did my little darling wake up so early because she's hungry? Dad will make you some milk powder right away, alright?"
Mu Feiyang sat up and scooped his daughter into his arms, speaking anxiously. He had not expected to sleep so deeply that he did not even notice when his daughter woke up.
Mu Qingling's little face was full of smiles after being picked up, as though waking dad had given her a great sense of accomplishment. She looked utterly adorable.
"My little darling is so good!"
Mu Feiyang could not resist giving his daughter's face a gentle kiss. Then he took out a stroller, placed Mu Qingling inside, and hurriedly began preparing her milk powder.
However, the milk powder Mu Feiyang prepared this time differed from the previous two. The earlier ones had been made purely from spirit rice, without anything added.
This time, however, he added spirit herbs to the milk powder. Its effects were better than the previous simple spirit-rice formula, because when Mu Feiyang had picked up his daughter just now, he discovered that her realm had broken through again.
She had gone from the third level of Body Tempering to the eighth level of Body Tempering, advancing a full five realms. That was why Mu Feiyang switched her to another kind of milk powder with more spiritual energy.
Very soon, Mu Feiyang finished preparing the Spirit Milk. He picked up his daughter and placed the bottle at her mouth. Perhaps the little one was truly hungry, or perhaps she had been drawn in by the fragrance of the Spirit Milk, but she began drinking in huge mouthfuls.
Her two tiny hands even held the bottle in a convincing little imitation, which melted Mu Feiyang's heart. The little girl was actually quite the little foodie.
While feeding his daughter Spirit Milk, Mu Feiyang carried her outside. The rising sun was the most pleasant; he could not let his daughter stay indoors all the time.
Just as Mu Feiyang came out carrying his daughter, two figures emerged from the side room. They were Zhao Yingying and her sister, who had stayed here for the night.
Last night, Zhao Yingying had given half the pill to her elder sister. By this morning, Zhao Shanshan had fully recovered. Amid their delight, the sisters solemnly put away the remaining pill and a half.
The two had planned to bid Mu Feiyang farewell and leave, but the moment they stepped outside, they saw him carrying an infant. Both sisters were momentarily stunned.
"Greetings, Young Master Mu!"
"Greetings, Young Master Mu!"
When Zhao Yingying returned to the room last night, Zhao Shanshan had still been tending to her injuries. But Zhao Shanshan had recovered early in the morning, and Zhao Yingying had also told her about Mu Feiyang.
Knowing that Mu Feiyang was very likely a hidden great power living here, the two sisters were extremely respectful toward him.
"No need to stand on ceremony, ladies. It seems your injuries have healed very well. There should be no serious problem now."
"Thank you for your concern, Young Master Mu. This was all thanks to Young Master Mu's Healing Saint Medicine. Otherwise, I would have been fortunate just to survive. How could I have recovered so quickly?"
Zhao Shanshan's injuries had been extremely severe. Moreover, they did not possess particularly good Healing Pills themselves. Being able to leave the Thunder Mountain Range alive had already been a blessing beyond measure.
Recovering so quickly should have been utterly impossible, yet half a pill from Mu Feiyang had healed her. This showed just how precious the Healing Pill he had given them was.
Although the two were both royal Princesses, as daughters, they did not receive many resources within the royal family. Naturally, they did not possess particularly good Healing Pills.
Moreover, their Imperial Father had been unconscious for so long, while the other princes openly and covertly fought over resources, preparing themselves to inherit the throne in the future. As a result, the sisters received even fewer resources.
"You're too polite, Miss. When Little Black was injured before, I casually kneaded up some healing medicine for it. There just happened to be two pills left."
"Ah..."
Zhao Shanshan: "..."
Zhao Yingying: "..."
Hearing Mu Feiyang's words, the two sisters froze in place, not knowing what to say.
Because they both knew that the Little Black Mu Feiyang mentioned was that Big Black Dog. In other words, the healing medicine Zhao Shanshan had taken before was something Mu Feiyang used to feed a dog.
Little Black: Woof woof... Woof woof woof! Are you two being polite?
