Fantasy: My Wife is the Empress, and Our Cute Kids Wreak Havoc in the Nine Provinces – Chapter 12

Chapter 12: Do you want some? It’s freshly grilled.

“Ah!”

The green-haired old man, upon hearing this, became even more frantic. Ignoring the bleeding wounds on his body, he attacked the light barrier even more crazily.

“How pitiful.”

Chu Chen glanced at the green-haired old man with pity, picked up a piece of roasted snake meat, and asked, “Do you want some? It’s freshly grilled.”

“Pfft!”

The green-haired old man spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot and fell from the sky.

Already seriously injured, coupled with the sudden rush of anger, he couldn’t catch his breath and directly fainted.

“He’s gone? Looks like he doesn’t want to eat.”

Chu Chen shook his head, turned to Long Yufei, and asked, “Auntie, do you want some?”

“I’ve already eaten my fill, so I’ll pass.”

Long Yufei waved her hand and said with a smile.

Although it smelled very fragrant, she couldn’t get past the mental hurdle of eating a snake.

Chu Chen’s gaze swept over the other female guards. Before he could even open his mouth, the female guards all waved their hands and shook their heads, saying almost in unison, “We’re full, we won’t eat.”

“That’s a shame.”

Chu Chen mumbled, handing the snake meat in his hand to Chu Xin, saying, “Big Sister, eat quickly, it’ll get cold soon.”

“Okay!”

Chu Xin didn’t hold back. She took the snake meat and took a bite with her small mouth. Her big round eyes immediately narrowed, and she nodded her head vigorously, “Wow! So delicious. I told you this big snake is delicious. Hmph, Daddy always forbids us from eating snake meat, he’s so mean.”

“Is it really that delicious? May I have a taste?”

The old woman landed on the flying boat, a kind and gentle smile on her face.

“Sure, Grandmother, here you go.”

Chu Chen picked up a piece of freshly grilled snake meat and handed it to the old woman, then continued to grill the meat.

The old woman took a bite, and her eyes instantly lit up. This roasted meat was indeed very delicious.

“Master, how is that fellow?”

Long Yufei came over and asked in a low voice.

“Dead!” The old woman said faintly.

The moment the green-haired old man fell, she had already released thousands of sword Qis, piercing him full of holes. He was dead as a doornail.

“That’s great.”

A smile appeared on Long Yufei’s face. The green-haired old man was one of the biggest obstacles to her reaching the provincial capital, so she was naturally relieved that he was dead.

The old woman looked at Chu Chen, who was focused on grilling meat, and Chu Xin, who was focused on eating meat, and said in a low voice, “We must get along well with these two siblings. It will benefit us in the future.”

If it weren’t for the help of these two siblings this time, she wouldn’t have been able to kill that old beast from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect on her own. It would have been good enough to maintain an undefeated position.

“Yes!”

Long Yufei nodded. These two siblings were strong and had many treasures.

She couldn’t help but wonder what kind of divine being could raise such terrifying children.

Compared to these two children, she was actually more interested in their powerful father who provided them with everything.

If their father could be drawn into the imperial family’s camp, her sister’s situation wouldn’t be so difficult.

“Let’s go. I don’t know which old fellow is waiting for us ahead.”

The old woman ate the roasted meat while channeling her True Qi to drive the flying boat away.

“Okay!”

A serious expression also appeared on Long Yufei’s face.

Since those people didn’t want her to arrive at the provincial capital to take office, they definitely wouldn’t have just invited the Sect Master of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, a Martial Saint. The road ahead was still not easy.

“Grandmother, do you want more?”

Chu Chen asked in his childish voice.

“Yes, I’ve lived for so long and I’ve never tasted such delicious roasted meat.” The old woman said with a smile. This sentence was not deliberately flattering the two Cute Kids, but from the bottom of her heart.

◈◈◈

However, when she turned to look at the two Cute Kids, she was stunned.

The snake meat on the grill had already disappeared by half.

“Grandmother, here you go.”

Chu Xin picked up a piece of roasted snake meat and handed it to the old woman, not forgetting to lick her oily little fingers.

“You’ve already eaten half of it?”

The old woman took the snake meat and asked in disbelief.

“Yes.”

Chu Xin nodded her little head and returned to her seat, concentrating on eating meat.

Her oily little mouth took a bite, exhaling hot air while chewing continuously. After a moment, she took another bite. A piece of snake meat, a foot long, was finished in a few bites.

This speed of eating meat left even the old woman in the dust.

However, she couldn’t understand how that little belly could eat so much snake meat.

Long Yufei smiled and said, “Master, these two little ones can really eat. They ate all of Xue Lang’s dozens of Blood Wolves.”

The old woman was dumbfounded. They ate dozens of Blood Wolves?

She might not even be able to eat one Blood Wolf. How did these two little ones do it?

She shook her head, turned around, and continued to eat the roasted meat, increasing her efforts to drive the flying boat.

She was injured before and didn’t dare to use her full strength. Now that the strong enemy was dealt with and the snake venom was also removed, she could use her full strength to drive the flying boat, increasing its speed more than tenfold.

Long Yufei looked at the old woman, then at Chu Xin and Chu Chen, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes. Is snake meat really that delicious? Should I try it?

Chu Xin seemed to see Long Yufei’s desire and picked up a piece of roasted meat, saying, “Auntie, have some. It’s very delicious, and this big snake has more energy than those big dogs.”

Long Yufei’s eyes lit up. That’s right, this is a seventh-rank demon beast. The energy contained in its meat must be good.

Whether it’s demon beasts or ferocious beasts, their meat contains a certain amount of energy. Eating more powerful demon beasts and ferocious beasts is beneficial to cultivators.

Of course, the energy contained in a demon beast’s body is definitely not comparable to that of a ferocious beast that specializes in body cultivation. However, a seventh-rank demon beast still contains a considerable amount of energy.

Thinking of this, Long Yufei hesitated for a moment and finally decided to try it.

She sniffed it, there was no strange smell. She took a bite and was stunned for a moment, then began to eat it in large mouthfuls.

Seeing that the Provincial Governor was eating heartily, the female guards also joined in the feast of roasted meat.

“Wow! So snake meat is really delicious.”

Once they started, they couldn’t stop.

“Hegemon Sword Sect has been waiting for Provincial Governor for a long time.”

Just then, a loud voice came from the front. The voice contained a terrifying sword intent, as if it could tear everything apart.

Everyone looked up and saw a burly man standing in the air with his hands behind his back.

“Hegemon Sword Sect’s Grand Elder, Qin Feng.”

The old woman’s eyes narrowed when she saw the person, and the flying boat also stopped.

Although they were both Martial Saints, this person was stronger than the old beast from before.

Chu Xin and Chu Chen on the railing of the flying boat, standing on their tiptoes to look at the man.

“There’s no meat to grill this time.” Chu Chen scratched his hair.

“There’s no meat to eat this time.” Chu Xin pouted.

The two Cute Kids’ childish voices carried undisguised disappointment.

“So it’s Heavenly Sword Pavilion’s Vice Pavilion Master Long.”

The man didn’t notice Chu Xin and Chu Chen. He just glanced at the old woman, his tone still indifferent, obviously not taking the old woman seriously.

The old woman said in a deep voice, “In the past, the old Sect Master of the Hegemon Sword Sect and the old Pavilion Master of my Heavenly Sword Pavilion used to discuss the Dao and sword together. They had a close relationship. What? Is your Hegemon Sword Sect also going to obstruct the Provincial Governor? Do you know the identity of the new Provincial Governor?”

Qin Feng said indifferently, “Of course I know.”

The old woman said sternly, “Since you know, how dare you still come to obstruct? Are you not afraid of your sect being exterminated?”

Qin Feng smiled slightly and said, “Vice Pavilion Master Long, I have already been expelled from the Hegemon Sword Sect. I am no longer the Grand Elder of the Hegemon Sword Sect. My actions are my own. Moreover, the Nine Provinces imperial family is too busy to take care of itself. Does it still have the energy to come to my Lánzhōu?”
