The next day.

Dugu Yan saw that Kong looked somewhat troubled and was deeply puzzled.

"Kong, what's wrong?"

At those words, Kong's eyelid twitched as the memories came flooding back. Before he could say anything, his expression suddenly changed.

"Sister Yan, you... wait for me..."

With that, Kong vanished from before Dugu Yan in a flash.

Dugu Yan: "???"

Puzzled as she was, Dugu Yan could only remain where she was and wait for Kong to return.

After a while, Kong finally came back clutching his stomach, his legs trembling slightly. At the same time, his face was deathly pale.

"You..."

Before Dugu Yan could finish, Kong's expression changed again...

By noon, Kong had finally recovered a little. He secretly thought, Even ordinary food becomes several times more potent than typical poison after Ei Wife gets her hands on it!

After consuming the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot, he had gained a body Immune to All Poisons. Combined with his physical constitution, Soul Power, and everything else, he still could not withstand the ordinary food Ei Wife made!

"Terrifying. Too terrifying!"

Kong trembled all over. At the thought of that plate full of black oil and deep-fried... things, his face turned pale and cold sweat poured down his forehead.

"Sigh... my Wife... boohoo... boohoohoo..."

Kong wore a miserable expression, but then he seemed to think of something, and his eyes lit up!

"Right, if something this powerful were fed to an opponent or a soul beast, then the effects..."

At that thought, Kong's sorrow lessened somewhat.

His cooking was clearly quite good. Ei Wife and Wife-sama the General did not need to cook at all—they only needed to eat.

But Ei Wife had said that over in Inazuma, wives cooked for their husbands...

It was too late to say anything now. Once Ei Wife made up her mind, it was incredibly difficult to change it!

Seeing Kong like this, Dugu Yan was quite anxious, yet helpless. All she could do was tell Kong to "drink more hot water"!

A mighty level-sixty-two Soul Emperor actually had diarrhea!

Yu Longwu: "..."

When this old man was level eighty-four, I couldn't endure it either!

By noon, Kong had mostly recovered. He set down the Glass Cup in his hand and headed outside the Rose Hotel with Dugu Yan.

The Rose Hotel had food as well, but Kong was not used to eating it.

"Kong, are you really all right?"

Dugu Yan asked worriedly, concern and anxiety evident between her brows.

Kong shook his head and said, "Sister Yan, don't worry. I have a body Immune to All Poisons. This morning was just an accident."

"Immune to All Poisons?"

Dugu Yan's eyes lit up, and she immediately forgot about everything else.

Kong had a body Immune to All Poisons?

Heavens, she and Long were simply a match made in heaven!

If not for her Martial Soul Evolution, then according to her original development, she would probably have been covered in poison by now.

Yet Kong possessed a body Immune to All Poisons, while she herself was nothing but a "Poison Girl." Wasn't that a match made in heaven?

Smack...

Dugu Yan suddenly kissed Kong on the cheek, then looped her arm through his without blushing in the slightest.

She was fine, but Kong's face turned red.

Dugu Yan had launched a sneak attack on him without any Martial Morality!

Though he was enjoying it too, but...

He looked at the clear blue sky. Ei Wife should be in a good mood, right? She probably would not mind something like this, would she?

Time passed, and the two arrived at a stall selling pancakes.

Kong stepped forward, spent one Gold Soul Coin, and amicably discussed borrowing the shopkeeper's "kitchen" for a while.

The shopkeeper agreed without even thinking about it!

One Gold Soul Coin was not much, but it was money he might not earn even after several days!

He was only borrowing the kitchen, and it would not even interfere with his normal pancake business. How could he refuse such terms?

After Kong busied himself for a while, he had prepared five or six dishes. He quietly divided them into several portions, and then two portions of every dish vanished into thin air.

With a smile, Kong murmured, "Mm, Wife-sama gets to eat first."

Only then did he take a tray, load up the remaining food, and bring it to his and Dugu Yan's table.

Dugu Yan stared blankly at the sight.

Kong's cooking was this good too?

But what were all these things? Sweet Treats? Eating Sweet Treats in the middle of the day?

Dugu Yan scratched her head, unable to make sense of it.

"Kong, I know a little cooking too. I'll let you try some next time."

Dugu Yan said with a smile.

Hearing that, and seeing Dugu Yan's face—especially the smile on it—Kong shuddered all over. He recalled the terror of being dominated by Ei Wife!

As for Dugu Yan claiming she could cook, Kong refused to believe it no matter what.

He quickly shook his head, his expression unchanged as he said, "No need, Sister Yan. I just like cooking for the people I like, and then feeling a full sense of accomplishment."

"Sister Yan is so young and beautiful. How could you possibly go into a kitchen? Cooking fumes are bad for your skin..."

Kong only wanted to live. What had he done wrong?

Hearing Kong's string of nonsense, Dugu Yan's eyes sparkled with stars. She was so touched!

Kong was simply far too gentle!

Just as Dugu Yan was about to say something, a figure entered her sight.

"Yu Tiankong, Sister Yan, I didn't expect you two to be showing off your affection here!"

Ning Rongrong wiped the sweat from her forehead and said with a smile.

That hateful Flender had actually ordered her to run twenty laps around Shrek Academy!

She, Ning Rongrong, was merely a level-twenty-six support-type Soul Grandmaster. Delicate and weak, she would not even be given food unless she finished running!

How could she possibly finish?

After just one lap, Ning Rongrong immediately gave up and ran away.

Having arrived in Suotuo City, Ning Rongrong was both exhausted and hungry. She had planned to find somewhere to gorge herself, then stroll around the streets.

Unexpectedly, not long after arriving in Suotuo City, she ran into the Young Sect Master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, that peerless prodigy, as well as Poison Douluo's granddaughter, Dugu Yan!

Dugu Yan did not mind Ning Rongrong's words at all. Instead, she nodded, acknowledging it. That was right, she was showing off her affection with Kong!

When Kong saw Ning Rongrong, he suddenly understood. This silly girl had probably been assigned laps by Flender, then run away, right?

Should he go watch the show tonight?

Starting her off with twenty laps—even Battle Soul Masters like Dai Mubai and Tang San would be nearly done for after running twenty laps without a gradual process.

Flender had arranged it this way merely to give this young miss Ning Rongrong a show of authority.

But when had this young miss ever seen such a situation? She was fooled senseless in minutes...

"Ning Rongrong, shouldn't school be starting today? Why are you here?"

Kong knowingly asked.

"Aren't you two here too?"

Ning Rongrong curled her lips and replied indifferently.

Kong and Dugu Yan exchanged glances and could not hold back their laughter any longer. "Sister Yan and I..."
