Gu Yue: Na'er, You Have Disappointed Me!

The decent restaurant Ye Xinglan mentioned was not located in the bustling part of Shrek City, but in a quiet alley.

That fit Ye Xinglan's usual preference for peace and quiet.

"One serving of braised pork belly, one serving of salted egg yolk eggplant, one serving of deep-fried Sea Scale Shrimp, one serving of stir-fried local beef..."

Holding the menu, Na'er rattled off a long list of dishes as if reciting a tongue twister.

Although she had never been to this restaurant before, as Sea God Pavilion's Number One Foodie, Na'er was extremely familiar with nearly ninety-nine percent of the dishes.

The only difference was that the same dish could turn out differently depending on the chef.

Listening to Na'er effortlessly list more than ten dishes, the waiter taking their order was stunned for a moment.

How could such a petite-looking girl order food so wildly?

"Alright, that's all for now."

Na'er put down the menu, deciding to start with these appetizers.

The waiter looked at the densely written order sheet in his hand and could not help confirming it.

"Miss, are you sure you want this much?"

"Our portions are all very generous."

The waiter clearly did not think the three youths before him could finish so much food.

"Yes, I'm sure."

Na'er nodded.

This was barely anything.

It was far from the limit of Na'er's appetite.

She only planned to deal with the food in batches because ordering any more would leave no room on the table.

"My sister has a somewhat unusual constitution. Please bring the dishes out."

Ling Luo offered an explanation.

Seeing this, the waiter said nothing further and took the densely written order sheet toward the kitchen.

This was the Soul Master World, after all. There were all kinds of strange constitutions.

Before long, the first batch of dishes was served.

With her little stomach already feeling rather empty, Na'er eagerly picked up her chopsticks and began devouring everything in a frenzy.

Ye Xinglan and Ling Luo had long since grown accustomed to Na'er's frightening appetite.

As for the waiter, who had previously doubted whether the three of them could finish so much food, he saw the empty plates on the table and the new order sheet containing dozens more dishes, and immediately realized how ridiculous his earlier thoughts had been.

This exquisite and beautiful-looking girl simply could not have her appetite measured by her size!

"Sister Xing Lan, you have excellent taste."

While feasting happily, Na'er gave Ye Xinglan a thumbs-up in praise.

Although she was sometimes quite wary of Ye Xinglan, as a qualified food enthusiast, Na'er would never let that affect her appreciation for good food.

The corner of Ye Xinglan's mouth twitched slightly.

Having her taste acknowledged by such a seasoned foodie as Na'er, could she take some pride in that from a certain perspective?

Compared to Na'er's wild eating, Ye Xinglan and Ling Luo ate much more normally.

"Looks like you're enjoying yourselves."

A slightly cold voice slowly rang out.

The three of them looked toward the source of the voice.

A girl whose face bore a sixty-percent resemblance to Na'er walked over.

Her gaze first lingered on Ling Luo for a moment before falling on Na'er, who was still eating heartily.

The moment she saw this person, Na'er actually stopped eating.

Her expression changed slightly.

"Why are you here?"

Seeing Na'er's reaction, Ling Luo had roughly guessed the girl's identity.

"Na'er, this is?" he asked, pretending not to know.

Na'er paused, then explained.

"Gu Yue, she's the one I mentioned..."

"My sister who was separated from me for many years."

That was right. The newcomer was Another Soul Split of the Silver Dragon King, Disciple of Heavenly Phoenix Douluo Gu Yue, who should have been at the Spirit Pagoda.

Since there had been no bet like in the Original Work, Gu Yue had not deliberately made her appearance more ordinary.

That was why she looked sixty percent similar to Na'er.

Na'er also found it strange that Gu Yue had appeared here.

Fortunately, after the Spirit Pagoda's Young Genius Ranking had been released, Na'er used Gu Yue's sixty-percent resemblance to herself to fabricate an identity for Gu Yue as her sister who had been separated from her for many years and whom she had believed had died in an accident. She also claimed that their relationship was poor.

Yun Ming and Ya Li were not the kind of people who liked forcing Na'er to do things she disliked.

So even after learning that this Gu Yue was Na'er's "sister," they had not forced the two of them to reunite.

They had only gently told Na'er that if she wanted the sisters to acknowledge each other, then with them there, even if the other side was the Spirit Pagoda, they would make sure Na'er got her wish.

Therefore, she could explain Gu Yue's identity.

Perhaps worried about exposing something, Na'er had no intention of continuing this conversation with Gu Yue here.

She wiped her little mouth, then stood and said to Ling Luo.

"Ling Luo, Sister Xing Lan, I have something to discuss with her. I'll be leaving for a while."

After saying that, Na'er grabbed Gu Yue's hand and led her outside.

Only after reaching a secluded little forest with no one around did Na'er release Gu Yue's hand.

Her expression was rather unpleasant.

"Why aren't you staying at your Spirit Pagoda to complete your mission? What are you doing here?"

In response to Na'er's questioning, Gu Yue merely sneered.

She folded her arms across her chest and said indifferently.

"My mission is progressing very smoothly. I only came to see how yours is progressing."

Gu Yue paused here, a mocking smile curling over her lips.

"But from the looks of it, your progress seems rather mediocre..."

"Don't tell me that after entering the human world, all you've done every day is eat and drink?"

Hearing Gu Yue's mockery, Na'er's expression became extremely displeased.

She had never gotten along with her main soul.

"What do you know? My progress is much better than yours!" Na'er retorted.

"Is that so?" Gu Yue scoffed disdainfully.

"Then why is there still a human girl beside Ling Luo?"

"Don't tell me that after being in the human world for so long, you haven't noticed the unusual way that human girl looks at Ling Luo."

Gu Yue had struck home, and Na'er's expression stiffened slightly.

But she still stubbornly argued.

"What would an iceberg like you know?"

"I have my own pace. Ling Luo definitely likes me a lot now!"

Na'er was exceptionally confident about this.

But Gu Yue mercilessly exposed her self-deception.

"Likes you?"

"Perhaps he does, but it is probably the affection a brother in the human world feels for his younger sister."

Gu Yue stared intently at Na'er before her.

"You know that isn't the kind of feeling we need."

"What we need is for Ling Luo to fall completely in love with you and willingly contribute to the revival of our Soul Beast Clan because of you!"

"What is going on with you now?"

"I cannot see Ling Luo obeying you, nor can I see any sign that he has been conquered by you."

"Instead, you have already begun to subtly place him first. Na'er, don't tell me you've truly started treating yourself as Ling Luo's sister?"

"You are the Silver Dragon King's split soul. Your mission from beginning to end has been to cultivate your feelings, then take the lead!"

"But you have disappointed me."
