Ei Wife's Food, Terrifying Indeed!

After about two hours, Kong finally reappeared where he had vanished.

The moment he appeared, he spotted Yu Longwu collapsed on the ground.

"Elder Long Wu, what happened to you?"

Hearing that voice, a spark suddenly returned to Yu Longwu's lifeless eyes!

"Young Master, you—you..."

Seeing Kong again, Yu Longwu could barely speak without stammering. He had vanished without a trace and returned just as silently. Yu Longwu simply could not comprehend it!

"Huh?"

Seeing this, Kong suddenly understood!

When he had gone into the Plane of Euthymia to cheer up Wife-sama, he had failed to notice the elder secretly protecting him. Of course the other man would panic when he vanished into thin air!

"Sorry, Elder Long Wu, I just went to..."

Before Kong could finish, Yu Longwu waved his hand and hurriedly said, "Young Master, I understand, I understand! There is no need to say more. Walls have ears."

Tang Hao: "..."

When Yu Longwu saw Kong again after something so miraculous, he had roughly guessed what had happened.

He understood in an instant!

Some things could not be spoken of carelessly. This was a secret. Even if Kong was willing to tell him, he could not hear too much!

As long as Kong had not disappeared for good, that was enough!

If this happened again in the future, he would not panic.

Seeing that Yu Longwu seemed to understand, Kong froze for a while, not knowing what to say.

After a long while, Yu Longwu noticed the bowl in Kong's hands. It was neither the bowl Kong had been holding when he disappeared nor the food Kong had made.

Inside the bowl was a pitch-black lump of something unknown.

The two looked at each other, speechless for a moment.

"Young Master, this is...?"

In the end, Yu Longwu still spoke, pointing at the bowl in Kong's hands. He had a feeling this thing was far from ordinary!

Perhaps it had come from the heavens...

Kong's mouth twitched. How was he supposed to explain this?

After thinking for a moment, Kong said, "It's food. Can you smell the fragrance?"

Yu Longwu: There was no fragrance, only the smell of something burnt and the earthy scent of soil.

But perhaps this was food Kong had brought back from the heavens, food eaten by those divine beings!

Thinking of it that way, Yu Longwu instantly found it rather fragrant!

"Fragrant!"

Tang Hao: "..."

Tang Hao, hidden in the shadows, looked at Kong and Yu Longwu as though they were idiots. What exactly was wrong with these two?

"Elder Long Wu, you have worked tirelessly to protect me. Take this and eat it."

Kong spoke with complete sincerity.

One had to know that even Raiden Shogun, his wife, had not dared to eat this stuff!

He had no idea whether Yu Longwu could still be saved after eating it.

"Young—Young Master, this, this wouldn't be appropriate..."

Yu Longwu was overjoyed, yet also somewhat embarrassed. He had not accomplished anything...

"You really don't want it?"

Hearing that, how could Yu Longwu dare refuse? What if he refused once more and Kong gave the thing directly to Yu Yuanyuan...

Thinking of that, Yu Longwu stopped refusing. He took the bowl from Kong's hands, grabbed the pitch-black lump with his hand, and swallowed it.

"Thank you, Young Master!"

After saying that, Yu Longwu returned the bowl to Kong.

"N-no need..."

Kong hurriedly shook his head and began observing the changes in Yu Longwu.

Yu Longwu: "???"

What kind of expression was that, Young Master?

When he had eaten that pitch-black "divine item," he had only felt as though he were eating scorched earth. There had been no other taste.

Yet in this short time, he discovered a miraculous force spreading through his limbs and bones.

The next moment, Yu Longwu sat down cross-legged and began refining and absorbing that power.

Kong was not surprised by this.

After all, in the Plane of Euthymia, only those immortal herbs and Divine Medicines could withstand Ei Wife's destructive tinkering.

Kong knew the value of these Divine Medicines and immortal-grade treasures. Ei Wife could use them however she pleased—he did not feel the slightest bit distressed.

Compared to his wife, what did these things amount to?

An immortal herb could create a prodigy, but what did that have to do with Kong?

Tang Hao was also quite curious about what Yu Longwu had eaten. Why were his soul power fluctuations so intense, as though he were about to break through?

Time passed, and after roughly half an hour, a powerful surge of soul power erupted. Yu Longwu's Soul Power Level rose from rank eighty-four to rank eighty-five!

He opened his eyes, which were filled with shock.

The next moment, Yu Longwu's expression changed, becoming somewhat twisted...

Logically speaking, as a mighty Soul Douluo, he should not have reacted like this! Yet the churning sensation in his stomach made Yu Longwu feel utterly awful!

"Young Master, I'll be right back!"

Gritting his teeth, Yu Longwu headed for the nearby bushes after saying that...

Kong: "???"

Were the side effects really that severe?

Good thing he had not eaten any!

If it had been ordinary food, then so be it. With his powerful physique, he would have suffered at most a little discomfort.

But he had no idea what kind of immortal herb or potent medicine this thing was. Kong simply did not dare eat it!

One wrong move, and that would be three lives gone!

Even a Soul Douluo could not endure it, let alone him...

"Gasp—"

Kong sucked in a cold breath and thought to himself, I really should prepare some ordinary ingredients for Ei Wife!

"Pfft..."

Upon hearing that sound, Kong instinctively retreated a hundred meters!

After a while, Yu Longwu finally appeared before him, drenched in cold sweat. Before he could say anything, Yu Longwu's expression changed again, and cold sweat streamed down his forehead like raindrops.

"Young Master, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yu Longwu ran off again...

After another while...

God knew what kind of look Yu Longwu gave Kong when he saw him the next day.

His Soul Power Level had indeed risen by one rank, but if there was ever food like that again, he absolutely would not eat it!

Absolutely not!

It was too terrifying!

Even a Soul Douluo's cultivation could not withstand it!

Kong was numb as well. Ei Wife was trying to murder her own husband with food! Fortunately, he had not eaten it and had given it to the loyal Elder Long Wu instead!

Fortunately, Elder Long Wu eventually recovered.

Tang Hao had originally been somewhat interested in that pitch-black lump, but after seeing Yu Longwu's fate, his entire body trembled, and his interest instantly vanished.

In Tang Hao's eyes, this thing brought a hundred harms and not a single benefit. Yu Longwu, the elder of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, had only gained a rank because he had been stuck at rank eighty-four for many years.

This thing had merely served as a catalyst, allowing him to break through. But the side effects were simply far too terrifying.

At dawn, Kong, who had not slept all night, felt somewhat dazed. After thinking it over, he decided to first go on a shopping spree in Suotuo City!

Although the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was not the wealthiest sect, it certainly did not lack Gold Soul Coins. As the Young Sect Master, Kong did not lack Gold Soul Coins either.

After buying a massive pile of ingredients, desserts, and food, and sending all of it to the Plane of Euthymia, Kong finally let out a sigh of relief and returned to the Rose Hotel.

Time to set off and watch the show!
