Fantasy: My Wife is the Empress, and Our Cute Kids Wreak Havoc in the Nine Provinces – Chapter 97

Chapter 97: Little Piggy, Eat More. The Bigger You Grow, the Tastier Your Pig Head Will Be

“Splash!”

The water surface in front of the small boat, and even all around it, rippled violently. The next moment, shadows over three feet long broke through the surface and shot towards the small boat.

Only when they got closer could it be seen that these were a group of fish with long, pointed heads and sword-like bodies.

As they shot out of the water, they released a terrifying sword intent. At that moment, they seemed to no longer be sword beasts, but rather real, tangible swords capable of destroying everything.

If one hadn’t seen the appearance of these fish and only felt their sword intent, no one would have thought they were fish.

Oink, oink!

The two-headed piglet desperately covered its eyes with its two front hooves, its body trembling even more violently.

If it were at its peak, it naturally wouldn’t fear these swordfish. But now, its strength was less than ten to twenty percent of its peak. If it were hit by those swordfish, it would definitely be riddled with holes and die a miserable death.

“So much meat, it’s all mine.”

Chu Xin was overjoyed. With a wave of her little, snow-white hand, specially refined skewers shot out like a volley of sharp swords.

These skewers were as thin as needles, yet they contained a supreme sword intent.

They pierced through the air, accurately targeting each swordfish.

The sound of piercing flesh rang out continuously. The seemingly ferocious swordfish, under the attack of these skewers imbued with sword qi, were pierced through with almost no resistance.

This wasn’t surprising. What was most shocking was that after piercing the swordfish, the skewers remained embedded in their bodies, each with five to six centimeters protruding.

After killing the swordfish, Chu Xin didn’t stop attacking. Instead, she began to form sword seals, and beams of sword qi shot through the air, brushing past the bodies of the swordfish in a flash.

Then, scales flew off the fish, scattering into the Divine Sword Pool.

Some sword qi even sliced open the bellies of the swordfish, spilling their intestines everywhere.

“Little Brother, the big fish are coming.”

With a wave of her little, snow-white hand, Chu Xin sent the descaled swordfish flying towards Chu Chen.

“Okay, Big Sister.”

Chu Chen responded. With a wave of his chubby little hand, a series of water tornadoes made of “dishwashing water” spiraled out, rinsing the flying swordfish before they landed precisely on the grill.

Now, not only were the scales removed from the swordfish, but their intestines and other innards were also cleaned out, and their bodies were thoroughly washed.

The siblings’ cooperation was truly seamless, clearly not their first time working together.

Inside the Artifact Spirit Space, the Artifact Spirit Elder watched with his mouth agape, his face full of shock.

“Such incredible calculation ability, such strong sword qi control.”

The Artifact Spirit Elder muttered to himself, his tone filled with disbelief.

Controlling sword qi to remove fish scales and intestines was already very difficult. Moreover, these fish were still flying in the air, increasing the difficulty by dozens of times.

To simultaneously control so many strands of sword qi, descaling and gutting all the fish, one needed to not only accurately calculate the trajectory of these fish but also control all the sword qi with extreme precision, without a single mistake. This was truly terrifying.

The Artifact Spirit Elder had guarded the Divine Sword Pavilion for so many years and had seen countless generations of sword prodigies, but he had never seen anyone with such terrifying control as this brat.

“Could this brat be the destined one of the Divine Sword Pavilion?”

The Artifact Spirit Elder looked at the image, at Chu Xin who had already returned to the small boat, resting her delicate little chin on her hand and sitting in front of the grill, eagerly waiting to eat the grilled fish. He fell into deep thought for a moment.

“Little Brother, is it ready yet?”

After waiting for a while, Chu Xin couldn’t help but ask.

“Almost.”

Chu Chen replied while seasoning the fish, “These big fish are much easier to grill than the piglet’s head. It’ll be ready soon.”

The two-headed piglet, which had originally raised its two little pig heads upon smelling the aroma, shrank back down and lay on the boat again upon hearing this.

“Hurry, hurry, I can’t wait any longer.”

As Chu Xin spoke, drool began to drip from the corner of her mouth.

◈◈◈

She had eaten fish before, but this was her first time encountering a sword beast. She wondered what it tasted like.

However, looking at its size and the tenderness of the meat, it should taste pretty good.

In the past, when Chu Chen grilled meat, Chu Xin was either hunting demon beasts or processing their corpses. She had never had a moment like this, where she finished everything in an instant and just waited for the meat to cook.

Now, she suddenly felt a little regretful. She shouldn’t have used her sword qi to instantly finish processing all the big fish. She should have processed them while waiting. At least she would have had something to do and wouldn’t have to wait so anxiously.

Fortunately, Chu Chen’s grilling skills were very proficient, and soon one fish was ready.

“Big Sister, this big fish is ready. You can try it first.”

With a wave of his chubby little hand, Chu Chen sent the grilled fish to Chu Xin and then continued grilling the rest.

Because the space on the small boat was limited, the grill naturally couldn’t be made any bigger, and it could only grill about ten fish at a time.

He had grilled that one first because he was afraid his sister would get impatient waiting.

“Mmm! So delicious. This sword beast is even tastier than ordinary fish-type demon beasts.”

Chu Xin took a bite, chewing and exhaling, while making indistinct sounds of amazement.

“Then we should store more sword beasts. Otherwise, we won’t be able to eat them after we leave the Divine Sword Pavilion.”

Chu Chen said while grilling the fish.

Oink!

The two-headed piglet raised its two little pig heads again, its two pig eyes staring unblinkingly at the grilled fish in Chu Xin’s hand.

So, not grilling its own pig head and trotters smells this good.

Previously, when Chu Chen grilled its pig head and trotters, it was filled with grief and indignation. It didn’t have the mind to smell whether the grilled meat was fragrant or not, nor did it have the mind to think about whether the grilled meat was delicious or not.

This time, it was grilled swordfish, not the meat from its own body, so it was naturally attracted by the aroma.

Seeing Chu Xin eating with such gusto, it couldn’t help but swallow its saliva.

“You want some too?”

Chu Xin, while eating the grilled fish, glanced at the two-headed piglet and asked curiously.

Oink, oink!

The two-headed piglet nodded repeatedly, its two small pig eyes shining with a look of longing.

Chu Xin looked at the grilled fish in her hand, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately couldn’t bear to part with it. Pointing at the grill with a finger covered in oil from the grilled fish, she said, “I’ll give you some of the next one.”

Oink!

The two-headed piglet weakly nodded its little pig head, looking a little disappointed. It had thought the little devil would share some with it.

“Little Piggy, here’s one for you.”

Chu Chen threw the second grilled swordfish onto the boat.

Oink, oink!

The two-headed piglet let out a joyful cry and began to gnaw on the grilled fish that was longer than its body.

“Eat more, grow bigger, and your pig head will be even tastier.”

Chu Chen looked at the two-headed piglet, which was eating with great relish, and said with satisfaction.

The two-headed piglet, which was in the middle of eating the grilled fish, stiffened. It looked up at the little devil, then lowered its head and continued to eat heartily.

At least before this little devil chopped off its pig heads, it could use these two pig heads to savor the grilled fish.
