Chapter 158: The Brats Get Spanked by Their Dad
“Big Sister, I’m in too.”
As soon as he entered the formation, Chu Chen ran to Chu Xin’s side.
“Okay!”
While drinking her milk, Chu Xin stared at the lotus in the center of the divine pool, impatiently saying, “Little Brother, Dad specifically left this lotus for us. It must be something delicious. Let’s hurry up and try it.”
If she hadn’t been waiting for Chu Chen, she would have rushed up and eaten the Divine Lotus long ago.
“Okay.”
Chu Chen nodded.
Then the two siblings rose into the air and flew straight towards the Divine Lotus.
However, as soon as they took off, they were grabbed by the collars and held in mid-air. No matter how hard they struggled, they couldn’t break free.
Chu Xin looked back and said with a surprised expression, “Dad? I thought you were just an image left by Dad?”
“Wow! Dad, I missed you so much.”
Chu Chen also shouted in surprise, his face full of longing.
Chu Feng’s phantom chuckled coldly twice, brought the two little ones in front of him, and said in a cold tone, “I told you to stay home and wait for me to come back, but you actually came to this Nine Provinces Secret Realm. Have your wings hardened? You don’t even listen to your old man anymore?”
“How could we not listen to Dad? We are Dad’s most considerate little padded jackets.”
“That’s right, Dad. We just wanted to save Mother. After we save Mother, we’ll go home.”
The two siblings quickly explained.
Smack!
What responded to them were two slaps.
“Dad!”
Chu Xin and Chu Chen covered their butts, their faces full of grievance.
“That’s for not listening and running around.”
Chu Feng’s phantom scolded them while hitting them.
“Ouch, ouch, ouch!”
The two siblings cried out in pain. Having been spanked countless times, they had deeply understood that even if their butts didn’t hurt at all, they still had to cry out loudly.
“Alright, go. That Divine Lotus is for you. It’s best eaten raw.”
After giving the two little ones a beating, Chu Feng’s phantom released them and said with a smile, “Be careful when you go out after eating. Those guys won’t leave so easily.”
“Got it, Dad.”
Chu Chen nodded his little head.
Chu Xin tilted her head and carefully examined her father in front of her. Her big, round eyes revealed a hint of curiosity as she asked in a childish voice, “Dad, did you know we would come?”
Chu Feng’s phantom flicked her little forehead and said exasperatedly, “Don’t I know you two little rascals? How could you possibly stay home obediently and wait for me? As long as you left the village, no matter where you went, you would definitely participate in the Nine Provinces Grand Competition and enter the secret realm. When I came in three years ago to collect heavenly materials and earthly treasures, I took away the mature ones and left the immature ones alone. But this Ancient Divine Lotus is a good thing. It can make the Divine Marks in your bodies even stronger. Although the water in this divine pool is useless to you, it tastes good for making soup. So I left a formation and a trace of Emperor’s Sense here to wait for you to come in.”
“Dad is the best.”
Hearing this, Chu Xin and Chu Chen threw themselves into Chu Feng’s phantom’s arms, their little heads rubbing against his clothes.
“Alright, this trace of my Emperor’s Sense is about to dissipate. Go, eat the Ancient Divine Lotus and beat up those guys outside. Also, don’t go to the Imperial Capital.”
After saying that, Chu Feng’s phantom slowly dissipated.
“Dad!”
Chu Xin and Chu Chen stared blankly at the place where their father had dissipated. They still had a lot to say to him.
Forget it, they can go back after rescuing Mother.
Wait…
Chu Chen turned to Chu Xin and asked doubtfully, “Did Dad tell us not to go to the Imperial Capital?”
Chu Xin nodded and said, “It seems so.”
“Then are we still going?” Chu Chen asked.
“Go, why not?”
Chu Xin took a sip of her beast milk and muttered, “Humph, Dad just wants to trick us into going back. We haven’t seen Mother yet, how can we go back?”
“Right, let’s rescue Mother and go back together.”
Chu Chen also nodded heavily.
Chu Xin turned to look at the Divine Lotus in the pool, drool dripping from the corner of her mouth again. She said impatiently, “Little Brother, let’s go eat that Divine Lotus first. We’ll split it in half.”
◈◈◈
“Okay!”
Chu Chen nodded again.
Then the two siblings rose into the air and landed on the lotus leaf next to the Divine Lotus.
The huge lotus leaf easily supported the weight of the two siblings.
The Divine Lotus was as big as two of the siblings’ heads. It lay quietly on the water, emitting a soft golden light.
“Let me separate it.”
Chu Xin made a sword finger gesture and waved it. A brilliant sword energy burst forth.
Boom!
However, a layer of golden light erupted from the Divine Lotus, blocking Chu Xin’s sword energy.
“Can’t cut it?”
After trying a few more times, Chu Xin gave up helplessly. This thing really couldn’t be cut.
Seeing this, Chu Chen reached out and touched the Divine Lotus, surprised, “Big Sister, this Divine Lotus can be touched.”
Chu Xin scratched her head, puzzled, and muttered, “Can’t be attacked, but can be touched?”
They had never encountered such a situation before.
After thinking for a moment, she lay on the lotus leaf, stuck out her little butt, and brought her little head close to the Divine Lotus. She opened her little mouth and took a small bite.
She was already prepared to be attacked by the Divine Lotus, but even after biting off a piece of the Divine Lotus, the lotus didn’t react at all.
“Can be eaten, but not attacked? This Divine Lotus was born to be eaten?”
Chu Xin was full of doubts, but she was quickly attracted by the delicious taste in her mouth.
“Wow! So delicious.”
She quickly chewed and swallowed the Divine Lotus fragment.
It was juicy and sweet, more delicious than any fruit she had ever eaten.
“Little Brother, you should try it too.”
After finishing one bite, Chu Xin quickly called out to Chu Chen.
“Okay!”
Chu Chen also lay on the lotus leaf, stuck out his little butt, and started eating directly.
“Mmm, so delicious.”
His eyes narrowed.
The two siblings took turns taking bites, eating with great relish. In no time, the entire Divine Lotus was completely devoured.
Burp!
The two siblings lay on the lotus leaf, letting out a satisfied burp.
“Big Sister, this Divine Lotus was so small, how come I feel even fuller than after eating ten roasted Thunder Beasts?” Chu Chen rubbed his little belly and asked with a puzzled face.
Chu Xin thought for a moment and said, “Dad said that the more energy a food contains, the fuller you feel. Maybe this Ancient Divine Lotus contains too much energy.”
“I see.”
Chu Chen nodded in understanding.
Buzz!
Just then, two golden lights rose from the siblings’ bodies, forming two golden cocoons that enveloped them.
“Big Sister, we’ve turned into eggs?”
Chu Chen was surprised.
But after waiting for a long time, he didn’t get a response from his sister.
He turned his head to look. Inside this golden egg, there was only him. His sister should be in the other golden egg.
He scratched his bun hairstyle and carefully examined the suddenly formed golden egg. The golden egg was slightly contracting. With each contraction, a massive amount of energy surged into his body.
