The Tiger Was Truly a Tiger

Noon.

Inside the palace, Lu Changzhi sniffed the air.

Then, he got up and went outside.

Seeing the thin flames and the meat roasting, Lu Changzhi was somewhat surprised.

Of course, the main point is that, judging from the grilled meat, it doesn't seem to be small fish.

"I reckon we won't encounter any rivers or anything like that up here."

If there's a river, catching fish is obviously not difficult.

If there isn't any, you can't just catch fish from the ground.

Just then, Luo Ling'er finished preparing it, raised her hand and handed it over, saying:

"Master, try the grilled fish you wanted. Is it the same as what you requested?"

Grilled fish?

Lu Changzhi was slightly taken aback as he looked at the square-shaped meat skewers.

"Yes, that's right."

Luo Ling'er responded with a sound of agreement, and then excitedly said:

"Before we came back, we caught a really big fish."

As she spoke, Luo Ling'er vividly described the scene to Lu Changzhi.

At this moment, Mu Fan added from the side:

"Tiger Flood Dragon that could easily rival the Transcendent Realm! Junior Sister Qin tore it apart with her bare hands. That tiger was truly ferocious."

"Tiger Flood Dragon, Transcendent Realm?!"

Lu Changzhi's eyelids twitched.

A wealth of information about the Tiger Flood Dragon immediately came to mind.

Then, Lu Changzhi looked at Qin Li with a hint of uncertainty in his eyes.

Qin Li, she's become this strong?

He wouldn't be surprised if he were to use methods to deal with the Tiger Flood Dragon, but he had already said he would tear it apart with his bare hands.

Although Qin Li has relatively rich combat experience, her cultivation level is still only at the Dao Comprehension Realm, and the gap between them is not small.

Qin Li was looking at Mu Fan with hostility. Although she didn't understand the words, her intuition told her that the word "tiger" didn't sound like a good word. Sensing Lu Changzhi's arrival, she spoke up:

"Master, don't listen to his exaggeration. I was able to do that mainly because of Senior Sister Luo's chopping board; otherwise, I wouldn't be able to do it now."

"Ling'er's cutting board?"

Lu Changzhi was slightly taken aback, and the image of Luo Ling'er wielding the chopping board with fierce and powerful movements couldn't help but appear in his mind.

It's better not to think about it; once you start thinking about it, it suddenly feels even more absurd.

At this moment, the system issued a voice prompt:

"Master, your disciple Luo Ling'er's God of Cooking Chopping Board has a suppressive effect on the ingredients."

Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi immediately understood and exclaimed in realization:

"I almost forgot that Ling'er's kitchen utensils can be used for more than just cooking."

Since the chopping board was involved, there's really nothing strange about it.

Although he didn't go to see it in person, he believed the effect would be quite good, after all, he was present when he helped Black Dragon lose weight with the boning knife.

"However, Ling'er's God of Cooking System is somehow similar to Dao Simplification Brush."

The mention of a cutting board immediately reminded Lu Changzhi of Luo Ling'er's Mighty God of Cooking System.

The last upgrade seems to have been a long time ago.

Like the Dao Simplification Brush, it truly lives up to its reputation as a system creation; as you upgrade or accumulate more, the required amount will only increase.

"How about simplifying the system next time the Dao Simplification Brush is full?"

An idea flashed through Lu Changzhi's mind.

However, it seems that it will take a considerable amount of time to collect enough.

Just as he was about to refocus, Lu Changzhi glanced at the Mighty God of Cooking.

The progress is almost complete; it seems that it won't be long before we can upgrade again.

Although it's a bit slow, it seems to be the fastest leveling system among all my disciples' systems.

While Lu Changzhi was thinking this, Qin Li also had her own thoughts.

Of course, most of it is mainly emotion.

She noticed Lu Changzhi's sudden realization.

So it turns out it was something I just couldn't remember for a moment.

There are roughly two possibilities in this situation.

Either they're sending out too much stuff, or they're just trying to Order the cutting board; it's really just about cooking.

But either way, it's enough to make one sigh.

Master, you truly live up to your reputation!

After thinking it over, Lu Changzhi picked up the grilled fish and took a bite.

One bite.

The meat is chewy and springy, with an irresistible aroma. The fragrance of the roasted meat, combined with the seasonings, explodes in your mouth, rushing straight to your brain and giving you a jolt.

"As expected of Ling'er," Lu Changzhi thought to himself with deep emotion.

The quality of this grilled fish is probably even better than what Qin Han made...

As he was thinking, Lu Changzhi suddenly paused, snapped back to reality, and realized something:

"Wait a minute, Tiger Flood Dragon is a dragon."

Upon hearing this, Mu Fan smiled and said:

"We'll have to ask Senior Brother Gu about that."

Lu Changzhi looked over and saw Gu Chen scratching his head, saying:

"Junior Sister Qin said that the Tiger Flood Dragon has the body of a fish and the tail of a snake. Since it has the body of a fish, it should be edible."

Lu Changzhi pondered Gu Chen's answer for a moment.

The idea that it's best not to say it, actually sounds quite reasonable?

Mu Fan then took the opportunity to add:

"Actually, Senior Brother Gu just wanted to give Master the best."

One sentence immediately set the tone for a highly emotional atmosphere.

In fact, Lu Changzhi probably guessed it when he heard Gu Chen say that.

However, this operation is truly Celestial Person.

I just asked them to pick up some fish on the side, but they ended up killing a Tiger Flood Dragon, and they might even have gone there specifically for that purpose.

This is truly heartwarming.

These disciples, though they weren't subjected to much physical pain, weren't treated in vain.

There's not much to say, I'm just so touched!

Strive to become stronger, and become their support. As long as you are strong enough, even if they cause chaos, you might as well turn the world upside down.

Of course, right now, well...

Turn your emotions into strength and eat to your heart's content!

After a hearty meal, Lu Changzhi rubbed his stomach contentedly.

"By the way, is that Tiger Flood Dragon dead?" Lu Changzhi asked.

Qin Li nodded:

"Without suppressing the chopping board, the few of us wouldn't be able to subdue it, so I killed it."

Lu Changzhi nodded, not paying any attention.

If it's not dead, we could consider taking it home and raising it.

But since they've already been killed, it doesn't matter.

With this thought in mind, Lu Changzhi made a plan.

"Looks like I'll have to find some time to keep an eye on the Beast Race in the secret realm, and pick out some good ones to take back and raise."

Composing himself, Lu Changzhi rose and returned to the palace.

I glanced distractedly at the situation in the Eighth Palace.

More and more people gathered, but Qin Han was nowhere to be seen.

"Take a nap first."

Lu Changzhi sat down on the recliner and lay down.

It's only noon, there's no rush.

I'll take a nap first, and by the time I wake up, it should be about time.

We'll grant Qin Han a special privilege later.

I must say, I've done a pretty good job as the patriarch of the Qin Clan.

So quickly they've been able to provide Qin Han with an exhilarating, cheat-like experience.

With these thoughts in mind, Lu Changzhi soon drifted off to sleep.

Above the jungle, a flying boat sped by.

Qin Han stood at the bow of the flying boat, his gaze fixed on the distant, rapidly moving flying boats, his eyes flickering slightly.

"Unexpectedly, I found a sense of déjà vu in this secret realm."

Qin Han whispered to Hua Yunfan:

"Elder Hua, I have a premonition about this trip. I wonder if you have it too?"
