In his opinion, the food that Wang Teng was making at the moment was just ordinary.
But he seemed to have overestimated Zeller's cooking skills.
When Little Qing 'er shouted out the word "so fragrant", cold sweat ran down his back.
Although if he was discovered, he could directly chop Little Qing 'er down with a hand knife. For such a soft little girl, it was not a problem.
However, when he saw the other party's pale face and dark eyes, Wang Teng suddenly couldn't bear to do it.
He shifted his gaze away guiltily and laughed. "Father, you've been working hard recently. Have you improved your culinary skills?"
"Yes, yes." Little Qing 'er did not suspect anything. She kept nodding her little head, a pair of black eyes staring at the food in front of her.
She was calculating in her heart. The food that her father usually made was too unpalatable. It was not easy to make something delicious, so she could not discourage him.
"She's actually a little foodie!" Wang Teng secretly smiled and was relieved in his heart.
It was good that she was a foodie!
Foodies were the easiest to fool.
Putting the cooked food on the table, Little Qing 'er could not wait to climb onto the table.
"Eat!" Wang Teng laughed.
He watched the little snake girl eat in front of him while sensing the space mark left on Lan Deng.
He found that the mark had not moved, so he was relieved.
"Delicious! Delicious! " Little Qing 'er looked sick, but in fact, her appetite was very good. She ate very quickly and praised from time to time: "Father, your cooking skills have really improved a lot. You have to continue to work hard!"
"I know, I know!" Wang Teng shook his head and did not know whether to laugh or cry. This little girl was like a little adult, and looked very fun to play with.
But he guessed that this was the way she and Zeller got along.
After eating, Wang Teng thought about it and was not in a hurry to act. The main reason was that Lan Deng did not move, and it was meaningless for him to move now.
So he began to refine medicine for Little Qing 'er that could restrain her physical illness.
He went to the room where Zeller usually refined medicine. As soon as he opened the door, a strong herbal smell hit his face.
As an alchemist, Wang Teng was very familiar with the smell of various herbs.
At this moment, when he smelled the medicine, he could basically tell which medicine Zele usually refined the most.
Among them, the strongest was the smell of the Cloud Snake Grass. Presumably, it was the medicine that was refined for Little Qing 'er.
He followed the smell to a shelf and took down a jade bottle from the shelf. Inside the bottle were three pills that looked black to him.
He poured out a pill into his palm and smelled it. The various medicinal ingredients within were already clear in his mind.
Zeller was, after all, a Master Level Poison Master and Pharmacist. He was very familiar with all kinds of medicines. The medicines he refined were also above the standard.
However, in Wang Teng's opinion, there were still many flaws.
Even if he used alchemy techniques to refine this kind of medicine, the quality and efficacy would definitely be many times higher than the medicine refined by Zeller.
But in front of Little Qing 'er, it wasn't appropriate to show such a trick, lest she see through it.
Every time Zeller refined medicine, this little thing would watch from the side, so Wang Teng couldn't avoid her.
Wang Teng looked at some of the dregs left after Zeller's failed refining and sniffed them with his fingers.
"Father, what are you doing?" Little Qing 'er stared and asked curiously.
"I'm summarizing the experience of failure." Wang Teng smiled faintly.
"Father finished refining a few days ago, didn't you summarize it once?" Little Qing 'er asked again.
"Summarize it a few more times, maybe there will be unexpected gains." Wang Teng replied calmly.
"Oh, then I'll take a look." Little Qing 'er came over and smelled the dregs in Wang Teng's hand. The pungent smell seemed to choke her, causing her to sneeze. She frowned and said: "It seems to be the same."
"Hahaha …" Wang Teng couldn't help laughing: "If you can smell it, you are a master."
"Humph!" Little Qing 'er snorted and said: "Sooner or later, I will become a master as powerful as father."
"You talk big. Then you have to work hard." Wang Teng touched her little head and laughed.
"I will work hard." Little Qing 'er waved her fist and said firmly.
Wang Teng smiled and then opened the Eyes of Truth, wanting to see what was wrong with Little Qing 'er's body.
"Well!"
As a result, even he couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
There was an extremely majestic energy hidden in the depths of Little Qing 'er's body. The energy was quietly dormant, but it was very strange and powerful, and even had a strange chill. Little Qing' er's body seemed to be so weak because it couldn't bear this energy.
"The Cloud Snake Grass has mild medicinal properties and has the effect of strengthening the physique of snake creatures. The Snake People are also snake creatures. With the medicinal power of this Cloud Snake Grass, it can slowly strengthen Little Qing 'er's physique and neutralize the overly powerful energy. It is not a bad way." Wang Teng thought in his heart.
But what was this energy?
Wang Teng had some doubts in his heart, but it was not appropriate for him to ask.
After thinking about it, he had to refine the medicine according to Zeller's prescription and give it to Little Qing 'er.
With his attainments, this kind of medicine was not complicated at all. It didn't take long for him to refine it, and it emitted a strong medicinal fragrance.
"Father, the Cloud Snake Pill you refined today is much better than before," Little Qing 'er said in surprise.
She had been with Zeller all year round, so her attainments in medicine were not weak. So just by smelling the fragrance, she knew that the quality of the pill was much better than before.
"That's why I said that my conclusion is useful," Wang Teng patted her little head and said confidently.
"En, en, Father is really amazing!" Little Qing 'er nodded her little head desperately and praised.
"…" Wang Teng always felt that something was wrong.
This little girl seemed to be comforting a child who needed praise.
Could it be that in her eyes, her father was a child who needed to be praised from time to time?
What kind of strange father-daughter relationship was this?
"Father, can I eat it now?" Little Qing 'er's somewhat impatient voice pulled Wang Teng back to reality.
"You can eat it, try it." Wang Teng poured out a small pill and handed it to Little Qing 'er.
He was very confident that even if this small pill was a little different from the one made by Zeller, it would not cause any harm.
He even felt that the one he made was much better than Zeller's. The same elixir, Wang Teng used more than eighty percent of its medicinal strength.
The small pill made by Zeller only had fifty to sixty percent of its medicinal strength at most.
In this aspect, Wang Teng only wanted to say one word … Trash!
Little Qing 'er smelled the fragrant pill and immediately threw it into her mouth with a whimper.
The small pill melted in her mouth, turning into a pure energy that flowed into her body. The gentle medicinal strength came into contact with the dormant energy in her body, causing it to slowly calm down.
Although this energy was in a dormant state, the slight restlessness caused Little Qing 'er's body to be somewhat unbearable. Therefore, she had to take pills from time to time to neutralize it.
"Ha!"
After taking the pill, a warm current flowed through Little Qing 'er's body, causing her to feel sleepy and couldn't help but yawn.
"Go to sleep." Wang Teng said.
"En, Father also sleep early." Little Qing 'er waved her hand and returned to her room.
At this time, it was already late at night. After Little Qing 'er fell asleep, Wang Teng quietly left his residence and went to investigate Lan Deng's location.
He followed the location of the space mark and directly came to the central area of Rui Snake City. In fact, it wasn't far from Zeller's residence.
Under the night sky, a huge castle-like palace sat in the darkness.
This should be the palace of the Naga Tribe!
Wang Teng didn't expect the Naga Tribe to imprison Lan Deng here. Wasn't this exactly what he wanted? Would Lan Deng make a move tonight?
There were many guards around the palace. After a while, Wang Teng heard the sounds of the Naga Tribe roaming around.
He directly activated the dark apparition's combat skill, Hidden Shadow Secret Skill, and his entire person blended into the darkness in the corner.
A group of Naga guards walked past him not far away, but they didn't notice his existence at all.
Wang Teng smiled slightly. His entire person was like a shadow in the night, groping his way into the depths of the palace.
After about ten minutes, Wang Teng had already passed through the layers of guards in the palace and arrived outside a prison cell.
The security of this prison cell was even tighter. There were guards everywhere. Lan Deng should be locked up here.
Wang Teng thought for a while. Then, he took advantage of the time when the Naga guards were changing shifts and quietly slipped into the prison cell from the shadows.
The prison cell was very dark and damp. It looked very eerie, but it was also convenient for Wang Teng to move around.
He completely blended into the shadows. The prisoners and even the guards in the prison cell didn't notice his existence.
"Finally found him!" Soon, Wang Teng found Lan Deng.
He was sitting alone in the corner with his legs crossed. His hands and feet were cuffed. However, he seemed to be quite calm. It was as if he wasn't worried about his situation at all.
However, at that moment, he suddenly opened his eyes. He looked into the shadows and frowned.
He didn't notice anything, but he felt like he was being watched.
After looking around a few times and making sure that there was no one around, he closed his eyes again.
"Phew!" Wang Teng let out a sigh of relief. "This guy is quite sharp."
The main thing was that he was too close. If he was a little further away, he wouldn't even feel that kind of gaze.
"Will he notice you?" Yuan Gungun asked a little worriedly.
"Impossible. My concealment technique has never been discovered before," Wang Teng said confidently.
Not only did he use the Shadow Concealment Technique, but he also used the Advanced Transformation Disguise Talent. How could he be discovered?
Seeing that he was so confident, Yuan Gungun naturally didn't say anything more. He changed the topic and asked, "What does Lan Deng want to do?"
"I don't know. That's why I have to keep an eye on him." Wang Teng's eyes flashed. He said helplessly, "But he is really calm. This guy has an extraordinary temperament."
"This guy is really not simple. If you hadn't been watching him this time, I wouldn't have realized that he hid so well," Yuan Gungun sighed.
Wang Teng didn't say anything more. He also didn't deliberately stare at Lan Deng. He just hid in the shadows and waited for Lan Deng's next move.
Unfortunately, Lan Deng didn't have any intention of leaving that night. Just as the sun was about to rise, Wang Teng had no choice but to retreat and return to Zele's residence.
As for Zha Gu, who was going to be captured to serve the queen, Wang Teng didn't go to watch the show.
Queen Rui Lan was a peak domain lord. If he was discovered, he would lose everything.
After returning to his residence, Wang Teng began to prepare breakfast for Little Qing 'er. He still made it according to yesterday's standards. Anyway, she seemed to have accepted it.
However, when he finished making breakfast, the little girl didn't seem to have any intention of waking up. This made him speechless.
Wang Teng felt like he had become a stay-at-home dad.
His concealment plan was getting more and more wrong!
Shaking his head, Wang Teng directly walked into Little Qing 'er's room. She was just a little girl and hadn't grown up yet. He didn't have much to worry about.
However, the reality of the situation still made him feel a little embarrassed.
On the bed in front of him, a little snake beauty lay horizontally. A gauzy blanket covered her body. The little girl's upper body was practically naked. She only had a wrap around her chest.
At such a young age, her pretty face was pure and innocent. She had a different kind of charm.
"I've sinned! I've sinned! " Wang Teng instantly left the room. The main reason was that the other party was too young. He felt like he was bursting with guilt.
Fortunately, no one else saw it. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to explain himself.
"Wang Teng, you're finished. I saw it," Yuan Gungun said faintly.
"…" Wang Teng's face darkened.
"Say it. How do you want to shut me up?" Yuan Gungun laughed sinisterly.
"I plan to silence you by killing you. The dead don't speak," Wang Teng said expressionlessly.
(∀ ﹏??)
"Actually, would you believe me if I said I didn't see anything? I was just scaring you, "Yuan Gungun said embarrassedly.
"If I find out that you dare to say even half a word, humph …" Wang Teng threatened.
"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare!" Yuan Gungun said repeatedly.
"If you don't dare, then leave." Wang Teng snorted coldly.
"Yes, sir!" Yuan Gungun immediately chose to admit defeat and disappeared.
Too scary!
Slipped away! Slipped away!
Wang Teng ignored Yuan Gungun. He took a deep breath and carefully closed the door. Then, he knocked on the door again and woke Little Qing 'er up to eat. He played the role of a loving father. As for the little episode just now, it was just an accident.
On this day, Wang Teng didn't go anywhere. After feeding Little Qing 'er, he stayed in Zeller's clinic to treat patients.
Other than going out to pick herbs, Zeller's daily activities were to treat patients in his clinic. This was also his source of income.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
In these three days, Wang Teng and Little Qing 'er got along very well. Although he occasionally showed some differences from Zeller, she didn't suspect anything.
Generally speaking, his disguise was not bad.
The main thing was that the way he stared at Zeller was really hard to suspect.
In a city, where could you find someone who looked exactly like him?
There was still no movement from Lan Deng's side. He stayed in the cell all the time, as if waiting for something.
That night, Wang Teng couldn't leave Zeller's residence. According to Zeller, tonight was the time when the energy in Little Qing 'er's body would erupt. Little Qing' er's master would also appear to calm the energy in her body.
Wang Teng was very curious about this. Little Qing 'er actually had a master who would appear every once in a while to calm the energy in her body.
No matter how he looked at it, this was the template of a female lead.
However, the strength of Little Qing 'er's master made Wang Teng somewhat hesitant.
If it was just a universe-level warrior, then he would have to consider whether the other party had the ability to help Little Qing 'er.
Otherwise, why hadn't Little Qing 'er's problem been solved for so many years?
Just as he was thinking, a graceful figure appeared in the courtyard very abruptly, making Wang Teng stunned for a moment.
It was a woman from the Snake Clan wearing a veil. She was dressed very elegantly, with basically no head ornaments. Only a green, snake-shaped hairpin was inserted obliquely in her black hair.
She was wearing a green robe, and her body was faintly discernible. She was simply perfect to the extreme, extremely charming. Compared to all the women from the Snake Clan that Wang Teng had seen, she was simply impossible to look straight at.
Even if she was wearing a veil, it made people feel that her appearance under the veil was absolutely beautiful.
Her cheeks were covered by the veil, revealing a smooth forehead and a pair of strange, bright eyes.
When Wang Teng looked into her eyes, his heart suddenly jumped.
What kind of eyes were those?
It was soul-stirring!
Wang Teng could only think of these four words to describe it.
His gaze was almost sucked in. Those eyes seemed to have a very special charm, and people who saw them couldn't extricate themselves.
Fortunately, he had seen countless beauties, and his mental fortitude was extraordinary. He immediately came back to his senses.
A strange look flashed in the woman's eyes. In the past, Ze Lei didn't dare to look at her directly, but today, he actually looked at her.
Although she quickly lowered her head, she still felt a little strange.
However, after she carefully looked at Wang Teng, she didn't find anything unusual, so she didn't think too much about it. She just thought that she had seen him many times and was familiar with him, so she had such a "bold" action today.
Wang Teng quietly opened the Eye of Truth and glanced at her.
"Domain Lord level!"
His heart flashed with shock, but he wasn't too surprised.
In his expectations, Little Qing 'er's teacher definitely couldn't be lower than the universe level. Because Ze Lei himself was a universe level, hence it was either universe level or domain lord level.
If it was sector lord level, he might be shocked.
If it was domain lord level, it was completely within his expectations.
However, there were only a few domain lord level beings in Rui Snake city, and there didn't seem to be anyone suitable.
Could it be that this woman was from another serpent-men tribe?
On this planet, other than the Rui Snake tribe, there were a few other tribes. They lived in different places, and even though they interacted, they didn't interact much.
"Lord Cang Yu, please come in!" Wang Teng gestured and led the way. He already knew the woman's name from Ze Lei, hence he didn't know how to address her.
When Little Qing 'er heard the commotion outside, she immediately ran out of the house and pounced on the snake woman in green.
"Teacher, you're finally here!"
When Lord Cang Yu first appeared, she had an aura that made people unable to get close to her. However, when she saw Little Qing, her eyes revealed a hint of warmth, reaching out to take her.
"Little Qing, how have you been feeling recently?"
"Teacher, I'm much better. The pills dad made for me are much better." Little Qing giggled as she lay in Cang Yu's embrace, not forgetting to praise her dad.
"Is that so?" Cang Yu looked weirdly at Wang Teng. She knew Ze Lei was a master level medicine master, and to be able to improve on his foundation wasn't easy.
Looks like Ze Lei's talent hasn't reached its peak yet.
"I was just lucky," Wang Teng pretended to be 'humble' and replied with Zeller's appearance.
"Follow me, I've found a place that may be able to merge the energy within Little Qing 'er's body with hers." Cang Yu didn't ask much, changing the topic.
"Really!" Wang Teng was surprised, but on the surface, he revealed a pleasantly surprised look, completely like an old father who found out that his daughter's illness could be cured.
In fact, he was very surprised because Cang Yu had always appeared at home to relieve the energy within Little Qing 'er's body. This was the first time she went out.
"En!" Cang Yu nodded, picked up Little Qing 'er, and floated outside. She didn't have any intention of explaining to Wang Teng.
If Ze Lei wasn't Little Qing 'er's father, she probably wouldn't even care about Ze Lei.
Now that Wang Teng was wearing Ze Lei's appearance, Cang Yu naturally wouldn't look at him favorably.
Wang Teng's eyes flashed, and his figure flew up, quickly following.
Cang Yu waved her hand, and a layer of energy seemed to form a veil that covered Wang Teng's body, helping him hide his figure.
Wang Teng's heart moved, and he allowed her to do as she wished. Then, he followed her silently out of Rui Snake City.
If a domain lord level expert wanted to hide, it would be very difficult to be discovered by others. Moreover, the strongest in this city was only at the domain lord level. As long as they didn't meet face to face, it wouldn't be a big problem.
After the three of them left Rui Snake City, they headed east of the rainforest.
A night passed quickly, and Little Qing 'er slept peacefully in Cang Yu's arms for half the night. When she woke up, they were still on their way.
At this time, they had already passed through the forest and entered a desert.
"Teacher, where are we going?" Little Qing 'er rubbed her eyes and poked her head out of Cang Yu's arms. She looked around and asked curiously.
"We'll be there soon." Cang Yu smiled and said.
In fact, Wang Teng was also very curious about where they were going, but since she didn't say, he naturally didn't ask.
The two of them weren't slow, and soon, they entered the depths of the desert and landed on a pile of rocks.
This pile of rocks was located in the desert, and it was like an ancient ruin. However, it was already broken, and only a few huge rocks were left lying on the sand.
"This place!" Wang Teng looked around, and his eyes revealed a trace of surprise. He opened his Eye of Truth, and seemed to have discovered something unusual.
Cang Yu walked towards the pile of rocks and actually came to the side of a dry well. She surprisingly explained, "I found this place by accident. It leads to the underground magma, and the magma has nurtured a strange stone. Perhaps it will be of help to Little Qing 'er."
"Strange stone!" Wang Teng's eyes flashed. No wonder he felt a burning sensation.
