Gu Yuena: "Qian Ren Shang is hungry. Bi Ji, take off your armor. Zi Ji, you too, take off your armor. Everyone, take off your armor!"
Gu Yuena: "Qian Ren Shang is hungry... Bi Ji, remove your armor. Zi Ji, you too—remove your armor!"
It had to be said that after taking human form, both Zi Ji and Bi Ji had exceptionally good figures. Not only did they have eye-catching long legs, but their curves were also perfect, with fullness exactly where it belonged.
Gu Yuena's expression immediately lit up.
She pointed at Zi Ji and Bi Ji as she spoke.
"Didn't you hear this child say he was hungry? Human children need milk when they're hungry... I don't have that."
"Bi Ji, remove your armor. Hurry up and remove it!"
"Zi Ji, you too... All of you, remove your armor!!"
Having been moved by Qian Ren Shang's story, Gu Yuena had completely gotten carried away.
"Huh?"
The Beast Kings were instantly stunned upon hearing that. What... what kind of outrageous words were those?!
Zi Ji's pretty face instantly turned crimson, and Bi Ji was no better off, her face so red it looked as though blood might drip from it.
"I... I don't have that. I've never even had a child."
"I... neither have I. Master, you're making things too difficult for me."
Qian Ren Shang was also incomparably awkward.
"Pretty Sister... I'm already three years old. I don't need milk anymore. Ordinary food is enough for me."
Gu Yuena's pretty face flushed slightly, and she felt a little embarrassed as well. She had been so anxious that she had nearly forgotten that.
"Then... then prepare some food for this child."
Gu Yuena said awkwardly.
Qian Ren Shang chuckled. "Thank you, Pretty Sister..."
"You don't have to call me Pretty Sister. My name is Gu Yuena... You can call me Sister Nana."
"Okay, Sister Nana!"
Qian Ren Shang's eyes were full of gentleness as Gu Yuena continued introducing everyone.
"I nearly forgot to introduce her. This is your Aunt Bi!"
Gu Yuena pointed at Bi Ji, who wore a green dress and had a very gentle temperament.
"Hello, Aunt Bi!"
"This is your Aunt Zi!"
Gu Yuena then pointed at the woman in purple, whose figure was even more fiery.
"Aunt Zi... hello!"
Qian Ren Shang continued waving in greeting as Gu Yuena pointed at Di Tian and the others, continuing her introductions.
"The imposing one in black is Di Tian... that brawny fellow is Xiong Jun, that slightly sinister fellow is the Ten Thousand Demons King, and that one... the rather wretched one at the very back is the Scarlet King!"
The Ten Thousand Demons King was dumbfounded. What the hell? Who was sinister?!
The Scarlet King also wore a bitter expression. This was discrimination—blatant discrimination! How was he wretched?!
This was too much!
"Hello, Uncles!"
Qian Ren Shang found it rather amusing as well. Though these uncles all had terrifying auras, for some reason, he did not feel the slightest bit afraid.
After that round of introductions, Qian Ren Shang and the Beast Kings instantly became much closer, and the atmosphere grew more harmonious.
As for Qian Ren Shang's meal, they had originally planned to deal with it casually. They simply brought over some Soul Beast Meat, prepared it a little, and let Qian Ren Shang eat.
After all, he was only a child. How much could he possibly eat?
But... they soon realized they had been far too careless.
This child was genuinely an extraordinary eater!
Half an hour later!
"How much has this child eaten?"
"Who knows... Anyway, he hasn't stopped for half an hour?"
"This kid can really eat! Is he even a child... He's almost catching up to me, Old Bear?"
Di Tian, Xiong Jun, and the others stood nearby, staring dumbfoundedly ahead. A three-year-old child was holding up a thigh bone thicker than his own head and gnawing on it.
Crack! Crack!
In no time at all, the entire thigh bone had disappeared into his stomach. The child did not stop, continuing to grab other food with his little hands and stuff it into his mouth, eating with great delight.
"Delicious... So delicious, but why do I still not feel very full after eating so much?"
Qian Ren Shang ate as he spoke, puzzled. By all rights, with so much food in his stomach, his belly should have burst long ago, yet it had not.
Still, he did feel that he had regained quite a bit of strength, as though he was about to make up for the depletion of the past few days.
"This child doesn't need ordinary food like this... What he needs is to replenish his vitality."
After observing him for a while, Bi Ji spoke gravely. Gu Yuena was also watching Qian Ren Shang from the side.
Hearing that, she nodded in agreement.
"Di Tian, go fetch some water from the Lake of Life, along with some rare Spirit Fruits!"
"Yes, Master!"
Di Tian nodded in acknowledgment. A few minutes later, he returned carrying a jug of water from the Lake of Life and several Emerald Green Fruits.
Gu Yuena took them and handed them to Qian Ren Shang.
"Try eating these!"
The moment Qian Ren Shang caught the scent of those things, his breathing became hurried.
"This... isn't this too precious? I can't take so many things from you. I can't pay you back right now!"
"If I tell you to eat, then eat. Why so much nonsense? If you can't pay it back... then repay us later."
Gu Yuena said irritably. Qian Ren Shang shrank back a little. This pretty older sister had quite a fierce temper.
Still, Qian Ren Shang did not stand on ceremony any longer. After taking them, he drained the entire jug of Spring of Life in one gulp, then ate several Spirit Fruits before finally letting out a satisfied belch.
"I'm so full... I've never eaten this much in my life."
Qian Ren Shang murmured with a face full of contentment. Once he came back to his senses and saw the mess spread across the ground before him, he instantly felt a little embarrassed.
His face reddened, and he scratched his head.
"Sorry, everyone... I was really hungry, so I ate too much."
Qian Ren Shang's face was full of guilt as he spoke.
"I'll definitely eat less next time... And I can work too. I can sweep the floor, wash clothes... I can cook as well."
The others looked at the guilt-ridden Qian Ren Shang, exchanging puzzled glances.
"Did we ever say you had to work in exchange for food? Who told you that... You're just a child."
Xiong Jun spoke in confusion, while Bi Ji frowned repeatedly as well.
"Children should grow up carefree..."
"My Mom said so... That's how I've lived ever since I was little."
Qian Ren Shang spoke with a serious expression.
"If I didn't do enough work or didn't do it well enough, I wouldn't get food... When I was little, I was too weak to do much work, so I went hungry many times."
The moment they heard that, everyone fell silent.
This child had suffered far too much. Even these Spirit Beasts could hardly bear to hear it.
Gu Yuena looked at Qian Ren Shang and spoke with a serious expression.
"From now on... just make sure you eat your fill. You don't need to worry about anything else."
"But..."
"No buts!"
Gu Yuena cut him off. Her expression was exceptionally firm. Qian Ren Shang froze where he stood, feeling a warm current rise within his heart.
Had he found heaven?
"Thank you, Na Na, Older Sister!"
"Thank you, everyone..."
Qian Ren Shang desperately held back his tears. Eating his fill... something so simple for most people was an unimaginable luxury to him.
Because Bibi Dong would never let him live so comfortably!
P.S. Brothers, how about a five-star review?
