Fantasy: My Wife is the Empress, and Our Cute Kids Wreak Havoc in the Nine Provinces – Chapter 99

Chapter 99: So Much Meat, It’s All Mine

“Yay, Elder Grandpa also thinks I’m right, right?”

Chu Xin cheered and increased her efforts to devour the Divine Sword Pool’s water.

“You…”

The Artifact Spirit Elder’s lips moved. He had just started to speak when Chu Chen interrupted him.

“Don’t worry, Elder Grandpa. This water can’t be drunk, nor can it be used to wash dishes or the grill. It’s completely useless. We don’t want it.” Chu Chen said with a look of disgust.

“I…”

The Artifact Spirit Elder’s body trembled, speechless with anger.

This was liquefied Sword Qi. How could it be completely useless?

So many sword prodigies, even sword masters, wanted to use the sword pool to temper their sword bodies and hone their sword intent. But in the mouths of these two brats, it became worthless?

But thinking about it carefully, these two brats could even eat the rune characters on the Divine Sword Pavilion’s plaque, and they could even use a rare treasure like Purifying Water to clean ancient treasures. This sword pool water really didn’t seem to be of much use to them.

Two little freaks.

The Artifact Spirit Elder muttered quietly. He didn’t try to stop them anymore, but he sighed inwardly. Just who was their father? How could he have so many treasures for these two brats to waste?

And how powerful was their father to be able to raise these two brats to be so freakish?

The sword intent contained in the three characters of the Divine Sword Pavilion was something that even ordinary deities of the past didn’t dare to touch. But those two brats just ate them.

Even now, he still found it unbelievable.

Could their father be some ancient deity that had survived until now?

Impossible!

As soon as this thought emerged, the Artifact Spirit Elder denied it. The ancient deities had all died in the battle of the ancient era. Even the Ancient God Realm had been shattered.

The deities of the Divine Sword Pavilion had all perished in that battle.

And in this era, he had never sensed the aura of a deity.

But if not a deity, how could their father have raised these two brats to be so freakish?

The Artifact Spirit Elder shook his head, his heart full of doubts.

“It’s almost empty. I can see the Sword Beasts.”

Just then, Chu Chen’s childish voice rang out.

The Artifact Spirit Elder came back to his senses and looked closely. The vast Divine Sword Pool had been drained to the point where only a thin layer remained at the bottom.

Many Sword Beasts, having lost their hiding place, gathered at the bottom, glaring fiercely at the two brats.

The Artifact Spirit Elder’s mouth twitched slightly. He reminded them, “Don’t forget to put the water back later.”

“Okay, Elder Grandpa. We never lie.” Chu Chen nodded.

Chu Xin’s big eyes stared at the dense mass of Sword Beasts at the bottom. She cheered excitedly, “Wow! So much meat, it’s all mine.”

“Big Sister, don’t kill them. Catch them all and freeze them.” Chu Chen reminded her.

If they were killed and then frozen, the meat quality would deteriorate, and it wouldn’t taste as good as fresh.

But if they were frozen alive, they could still be revived after thawing. Then, when they were killed and eaten, the taste would be no different from fresh.

“Okay.”

Chu Xin responded. Her small body rose into the air and landed at the bottom of the pool. With a wave of her fair little hand, she shouted in her childish voice, “Come here, everyone. I won’t kill you for now.”

The Sword Beasts were also intelligent. They knew that this little devil had drained the pool water, leaving them with nowhere to live. Seeing the little devil appear, they roared furiously and charged at her.

Among these Sword Beasts, some were the swordfish that Chu Xin had eaten before, and some were other fish-like shapes. There were all kinds of forms, dazzling Chu Xin’s eyes.

“Forget it, I’ll just knock them all out first.”

Chu Xin muttered. With a flick of her fair little hand, countless Sword Qis floated in the air, fusing together to form small Sword Qi White Apes.

Countless White Apes, stepping on legs made of Sword Qi, charged into the Sword Beast group. Their huge Sword Qi fists swung, knocking out each Sword Beast.

Even the sword intent within these Sword Beasts was suppressed by the Sword Qi White Apes’ sword intent, unable to be released at all.

Seeing this scene, the Artifact Spirit Elder was once again shocked.

This brat’s ability to control Sword Qi had once again exceeded his expectations.

He became even more certain that this brat might really be the destined one of the Divine Sword Pavilion.

◈◈◈

At this moment, Chu Xin waved her little hand and released the Earthly Yin Spring, intending to use it to freeze the unconscious Sword Beasts.

“Earthly Yin Spring?”

The Artifact Spirit Elder was stunned for a moment, then he reminded her, “Little Friend, although the Earthly Yin Spring can freeze, it will corrode the Sword Beasts’ consciousness.”

“Oh right, I almost forgot.”

Chu Xin quickly withdrew the Earthly Yin Spring. She turned to Chu Chen and said, “Little Brother, we don’t have anything to freeze them with.”

Chu Chen also paused for a moment. He sighed like a little adult and said, “Let’s just kill them all then.”

Without being able to freeze them, these Sword Beasts still had life auras and couldn’t be stored in the Spatial Ring.

After being frozen, their life auras would also be frozen, and they would be no different from dead objects until they were thawed.

The Artifact Spirit Elder’s eyes rolled. He took out a bracelet and said, “Although this item is not an ancient treasure, it is an ice-attributed Emperor Weapon left behind by an ice sword cultivator of the past. It is severely damaged and only retains its freezing function. I’ll give it to you. I hope you won’t forget to put the sword pool water back later.”

The God Sword Fruit needed to constantly absorb the Sword Qi and sword intent from the Divine Sword Pool. If it was cut off for too long, problems might arise.

The God Sword Fruit was the key to determining the destined one of the Divine Sword Pavilion.

Although many people had consumed the God Sword Fruit over the years, none had met the requirements of the Divine Sword Pavilion’s destined one. Still, he had to ensure that each God Sword Fruit matured normally.

“Wow! Thank you, Elder Grandpa. I’ll grill some more meat for you later.”

Chu Chen thanked him and took the bracelet, tossing it to his sister, Chu Xin.

Chu Xin injected her Divine Mark power into the bracelet. A bone-chilling frost spread out, freezing all the unconscious Sword Beasts.

This was pure frost power. It would only freeze and would not corrode the consciousness of living beings.

Chu Xin waved her fair little hand, and all the frozen Sword Beasts were stored in her Spatial Ring.

Then, she disappeared in a flash, following behind the Sword Qi White Apes.

Just as Chu Xin was collecting almost the entire Divine Sword Pool’s Sword Beasts, a group of people also arrived at the deepest part of the Divine Sword Pool.

At this time, the pool water in the Divine Sword Pool had almost been completely collected, and the white mist of Sword Qi that had permeated the air above the pool had also dissipated.

Chu Xin and Chu Chen, the two siblings, heard the domineering dragon’s roar and looked up. They saw a ten-zhang tall tree standing at the deepest part of the Divine Sword Pool, its dense roots embedded in the bottom of the pool.

The tree trunk was straight, and its top was sharp, like a divine sword.

On the straight trunk, two straight branches grew on the left and right sides, their tops also sharp, like diagonally long swords.

The rest of the tree was bare. Only on these two branches, near their tops, grew a long, oval-shaped fruit each.

The top of the fruit was sharp, and at the bottom were two small sword-shaped leaves on either side. Together with the fruit stalk connecting the fruit to the branch, the whole thing looked like a small sword.

The fruit stalk was the hilt, and the fruit was the blade.

At this time, the fruit was still green. Although the fruit stalk was located at the upper end of the branch, it drooped softly, obviously not yet ripe.

However, a powerful sword intent flowed within the fruit.

Of course, what attracted the two of them the most was a lifelike golden divine dragon coiled around the roots of the tree.

“Big Sister, is this divine dragon real?”

Chu Chen asked curiously.

“I don’t know.”

Chu Xin stared at the divine dragon for a long time and shook her head.

The aura of the divine dragon and the tree were fused together. She couldn’t tell if it was real or fake.

Roar!

Just then, the divine dragon suddenly raised its head, opened its huge eyes, stared at the two siblings, and let out an angry roar. A terrifying dragon’s might swept over them.
