Moon Spirit, Please Don't Act Rashly...
When Wu Chu and his friends returned from their underwater adventure, Little Moon Spirit and Little Cai Niang had already prepared a huge feast for everyone. It included everything from what they had seen in the mountains and what they had ate in the sea, prepared through various methods of frying, grilling, stir-frying, and deep-frying. The table was a long table over ten meters long, with seating on both sides.
At this moment, the long table was piled high with food.
The giant clam was among them, but its appearance is no longer visible. It has long been stir-fried into diced meat, made into kebabs, or steamed.
The aromas of various foods mingled together, making one's appetite surge. At least, looking at such a large table of delicious food, Little White and the Doggy were already drooling and talking non-stop.
Ayi's Big Dog had also returned long ago and were lying by the table waiting.
They only stopped their ravenous behavior when Wu Chu and his companions returned.
Although Bai Ze also wanted to try it, it was trying its best to resist. Fortunately, it had never tasted such food before and didn't know if the shiny-looking food was as delicious as it imagined, or if it was as unseemly as the Doggy.
"Sorry to keep you waiting." Wu Chu smiled at Bai Ze and said, "I didn't expect the scenery on this seabed to be so beautiful, and there's even a large Star Sand..."
Bai Ze shook its head and said, "Senior, you flatter me!" After a pause, it continued, "Actually, the scenery here is even more beautiful at night. It's pitch black all around, but here, wisps of starlight Moonlight fall, making it exceptionally magnificent. When I was young, I cultivated in this Starlight and Moonlight, and my cultivation speed was incredibly fast..."
"Then we should definitely take a good look!" Wu Chu said with a smile.
Qingqiu Li laughed and said, "Perhaps we won't be able to appreciate it!"
Wu Chu paused for a moment, recalling the Water Element Spirit he had captured.
"Everyone, it's time to wash your hands and eat!" Little Moon Spirit called out.
Then, streams of water appeared out of nowhere, washing away the seawater from their bodies.
Then, clusters of clouds appeared around the long table, and everyone sat on the clouds, around the long table piled high with all kinds of delicious food, and began to feast.
Wu Chu greeted Bai Ze, "Don't be shy, this is something unique to our Purple Jade Mountain. Even if you go to the Three Royal Court, you might not be able to enjoy it. That's because our Purple Jade Mountain has the most skilled chef in the entire Primordial World Little Moon Spirit. Everyone, raise your glasses and toast our chef!"
Everyone started cheering and raised their glasses.
Little Moon Spirit waved her little hand, a little shy, but also very proud.
Wu Chu then said, "Let's also raise a glass to our little chef Little Cai Niang, thank you for your hard work!"
Little Cai Niang became even more embarrassed, her face turning red. She weakly waved her little hands, "No, no, Sister Yueling worked the hardest. I was just helping out..."
Seeing her like this, no one took it seriously; they were all used to it.
The Little Flower Fairies had small appetites, and after eating and drinking for a while, they picked up their musical instruments and began to play music for everyone. As soon as the music started, the atmosphere changed instantly.
Bai Ze, who had been somewhat dazed from being immersed in the delicious food, looked up blankly at the Little Flower Fairies sitting on the clouds, elegantly playing the zither.
At this moment, it suddenly understood what Bai Jun and A Qiu had said before. What was wrong with being their pet?
Moreover, Little Moon Spirit also said that they are not pets, but Daoist partners.
This meal broadened the horizons of the still very young Bai Ze, allowing it to experience the wonders of the world.
For a creature that once ate raw meat and drank blood, and now feeds on dew and air, this has overturned its previous understanding and imagination of food.
This reminded it of what Bai Jun had said before: to live is to constantly explore the unknown and strive to go from 'thinking' to 'doing'.
But if it hadn't witnessed these things, it would never have even imagined that food could taste so wonderful after cooking.
Is the same true in spiritual practice?
Although it was born with the ability to cultivate, and its cultivation level was increasing day by day, it was now beginning to doubt whether it was right or wrong to cultivate in seclusion here alone.
That night, a crescent moon rose at the edge of the sea and sky, starlight shimmered on the sea, and the silver sand beach that wrapped around the island like a ribbon also rose with layers of light, reflecting the Starlight.
Breathing in the slightly salty sea breeze, Wu Chu and his companions sat on Tower Ship by the shore, silently watching this scene. Bai Ze, standing nearby, came to the gunwale, one leg dangling from it, and looked at the beach with a puzzled expression, speaking in human language, "Strange, it wasn't like this before! Even on moonless nights, as long as there's starlight, the Starlight would fall here..."
Wu Chu laughed and said, "Although it's not a large scale, there is indeed starlight falling down!"
Bai Ze shook his head and said, "That's not the case; the scale is much larger than that!"
Wu Chu thought for a moment, then shook out the Water Element Spirit that he had sealed away. The runes sealed on it quietly loosened slightly, and the Starlight and Moonlight in the sky fell down in this direction.
Bai Ze stared in disbelief at the Water Element Spirit in Wu Chu's hand. "Senior... you caught it?"
At this moment, Little Moon Spirit summoned the Moon Wheel, which hovered beside her. Its frost-like blade light was aimed directly at Bai Ze, startling him. Bai Ze quickly said, "I have no intention of blaming you, Yueling, please don't act rashly..."
Yueling was also taken aback for a moment, and said, "Fellow Daoist Bai Ze, please don't misunderstand. It was because it sensed that Water Element Spirit and longed for it that I summoned it. If you don't believe me, look."
Little Moon Spirit released her control over the Moonwheel Snow Blade, and the Spirit Treasure Moon Wheel flew towards the Water Element Spirit, then hovered in front of Wu Chu, trembling slightly.
In Little Moon Spirit's perception, the Moon Wheel was filled with longing for that Water Element Spirit.
Although the others could not sense the Moon Wheel's yearning, they knew that Little Moon Spirit had not been targeting Bai Ze.
Wu Chu frowned slightly. Qingqiu Li glanced at him and said, "Perhaps absorbing this Water Element Spirit will improve its quality."
Upon hearing this, Wu Chu nodded and released his control over the Water Element Spirit.
After the Water Element Spirit was freed from Wu Chu's restraints, it tried to escape back into the sea, but the Moon Wheel was faster and appeared in front of the Water Element Spirit in an instant. As a result, the Water Element Spirit crashed into the Moon Wheel was restrained by it.
If we exclude the set of seventy-two kitchen utensils, Little Moon Spirit doesn't actually have many spiritual Spirit Treasure. Initially, she only had the Spirit Prime Sword. Later, Wu Chu gave her the Illusion-Breaking Bell, and then gave her the White Conch that Yinglong Gengchen had given her.
Therefore, Wu Chu didn't mind if this Water Element Spirit was absorbed by the Moon Wheel. If it could help improve the quality of the Moonwheel Snow Blade, that would be the best outcome.
