"Do I have to eat it all?"
Looking at the snow-white, tender eel meat in front of him, Shermie looked at Ji Hao with a bitter face.
"You have to. Otherwise, your spirit blood won't be able to support your future cultivation." Ji Hao looked at Shermie seriously. He gently cut the eel meat with his fingers, pulled off a foot-long, nearly transparent piece of meat, put it into his mouth, and began chewing.
The juices were tender and crispy, and melted in Ji Hao's mouth. The juices, which had a slight sweetness, quickly slid into Ji Hao's stomach. A dense warmth spread out, and Ji Hao only felt that all his internal organs felt comfortable.
Electric eels were top-grade among all water-kind spirit creatures. Because of the great power of thunder, their meat was purified by the thunder power day and night, without any impurities. Not a trace of spirit creature power could be sensed from their bodies, only their extremely pure spirit blood and life-force.
It was said that this thousand-year-old electric eel escaped from the battlefield before the Kui Gate, and was killed by a dark water serpent who was supervising the battle. Half of the eel's body was eaten by the serpent, while the other half was sent back to the Kui Gate campsite, to be sold in restaurants.
Indeed, these water-kind spirit creatures had been learning from human beings in every aspect. In the vast Kui Gate campsite, they had actually built taverns and restaurants, like in human settlements. Even the 'brothel' that Yu Chi liked to hang out in the most was built in imitation of the market of human beings.
The nine-hundred-meters-long, ten-meters-thick electric eel was sent into the tavern. Immediately, a large group of water-kind spirit creatures scrambled for it.
Ji Hao had been covering the surrounding area with his spirit power all the time. Seeing this electric eel, he immediately rushed into the tavern with Shermie and a group of young crayfishes, threw a large pile of top-grade magic crystals, and grabbed a big half of the eel meat.
"Eat it, it's good for you. If you want to grow stronger, you have to cultivate your body. But if you don't replenish your blood and life-force, you won't be able to bear that kind of consumption. "Ji Hao looked at Shermie seriously and pushed the electric eel meat towards Shermie.
From all directions, many water-kind spirit creatures fiercely stared at Ji Hao and Shermie, who were sitting around a square table. If they weren't afraid of the strong spirit creature power released from 'Summer', a group of water-kind spirit creatures would have rushed up long ago to grab Ji Hao and Shermie.
The way they looked at Shermie was even fiercer. 'Bloody crayfish, you don't want such a good piece of meat? Why don't you give it to us?'
Shermie knitted his eyebrows, slowly cut off a large piece of electric eel meat, put into his mouth, chewed, and swallowed. Ji Hao sat by the table, while Shermie politely stood on the opposite side of the table. He slightly bent his legs and made the posture of the first turn of the cultivation method with nine turns. Inside his body, his boiling blood circulated speedily. The electric eel meat that he swallowed just now was gone before it reached his stomach.
Shermie looked at Ji Hao in shock. When he activated the first turn of the cultivation method with nine turns, he felt that his body was like a giant black hole, crazily thirsting for spirit power. He had a clear feeling that if he didn't have enough blood essence to replenish it, this cultivation technique would boil him into a shriveled corpse!
What a powerful cultivation method, what a terrifying power!
Shermie's gratitude and respect towards Ji Hao increased by a hundred times. He lowered his head and began wolfing the electric eel meat.
A crayfish was born in a lowly family, and luckily attained the body of a spirit creature. He could never inherit a proper cultivation method. He had to struggle for his life with his natural instinct. Not only did he have to save his own life, he also had to protect a group of weak children.
For the first time in his life, Shermie didn't have to worry about tomorrow anymore. At the moment, Ji Hao was like a towering mountain, giving Shermie an incomparable sense of security.
It felt good to have someone to rely on!
"To be honest, this meat tastes much better than ganoderma lucidum and kelp." Shermie murmured, "Before, I didn't have the heart to do it, and I dared not to do it to other spirit creatures …"
"Hmm, in the future, when you see evil spirit creatures, just pick the tasty ones." Ji Hao irresponsibly changed the topic, "In fact, it's so lucky to be born as a water-kind spirit creature! Steamed crabs, crabs with lees, turtles stewed in clear broth, snakes stewed in spicy … "
Ji Hao completely forgot that he was' Summer 'at the moment. With a greedy look, he glanced at all water-kind spirit creatures around him. Wherever his eyes reached, all water-kind spirit creatures were scared away. The names of the dishes that came out of Ji Hao's mouth were way too scary!
Shermie blinked his eyes and stared at Ji Hao. His mind was in a mess. He knew who Ji Hao was, but now, he was wondering what Ji Hao was doing in the Kui Gate. Did he come to break the Kui Gate, or to eat seafood?
Ji Hao chuckled. Suddenly, a loud noise could be heard from outside the crooked restaurant.
A few gorgeously dressed water snakes, clams, and sea snails dashed out of a stone room not far away, crying and screaming. An enormous Yu roared deeply, letting out purple-red poisonous sand from his mouth. Unstoppably, he leaped out of the stone room.
"How dare you attack Ancestor Yu?!" This Yu screamed hysterically. Ignoring all those water-kind spirit creatures around him, he opened his mouth and sprayed out a cloud of poisonous sand and poisonous clouds.
The dark-kind's sand was incredibly powerful, and even people who were a level higher than them couldn't fend against it. This Yu was as powerful as a low-level Divine Magus, and the poisonous sand it released was powerful enough to threaten high-level Divine Magi.
Most of the water-kind spirit creatures in the market were weak ones. Wherever the poisonous sand cloud released by Yu swept across, large numbers of water-kind spirit creatures screamed shrilly while their bodies melted into poisonous water. Some low-grade spirit creatures, who were highly toxic themselves, managed to survive in the toxic cloud for a while longer. The water-kind spirit creatures in the distance watched their bodies decay speedily. Their skins and muscles turned into glowing red poisonous liquid, while their bones and internal organs slowly melted and rotted away.
"Someone … ambushed …"
Following a series of disordered footsteps, Yu Chi staggered out of the stone room with his upper body bared. He took a few steps forward with difficulty, then yelled at that cruel Yu, "Idiot! Didn't you see your ancestor? I … I … I … Send me back … Now …"
Before Yu, who had been releasing poisonous sand, realized what was going on, Ji Hao laughed with a weird voice, then dashed to Yu Chi's side, leaving a shred of afterimage in the air. He politely held Yu Chi's arm with both hands.
"Sir, you look familiar, don't you? We're neighbors! "
"My Lord, do you remember this old monster? I'm Summer, and that's my nephew, Shermie. We're neighbors! "
"My Lord, are you … sick? Or are you possessed? Aiyo, Old Demon, it looks like you're possessed! Tsk, tsk. Your little face is as white as a dead person's. You must have been possessed! "
"Sir, don't panic, don't be afraid. I'm not good at anything else, but I'm good at exorcising."
"Sir, we're neighbors. Neighbors should be nice to each other, and we should help each other, shouldn't we? I'll take responsibility for you until the end! "
"Sir … Let's go!"
Before Yu Chi could say no, Ji Hao gripped his neck and carried him away as if he were carrying a chicken.
