Everyone was at the banquet, even Su Xingyu was no exception. A person's Essence Qi was the key to driving the body. Walking, sitting, talking, contemplating, and cultivating all consumed Essence Qi. If one didn't cultivate Essence Qi, they would have to consume vital Qi to make up for the loss.
There was no Star Power in the Evil Prison. Contemplating and visualizing would only consume vital Qi.
Fortunately, the cook prepared a special banquet for everyone. Eating was a pleasure. Although Su Xingyu didn't want to look at Li Hongzhuang, he had no choice but to sit at the same table.
Su Rongrong introduced the dishes to everyone. "This steamed carp, roasted chicken, sliced pork, dragon and phoenix … These are all my specialties. I usually only make them for my son-in-law. Today, to celebrate the completion of this trip, I made them for all of you to try."
"That's, that's great …" Zhao Ting was almost drooling. Usually, he had to see if Su Rongrong was in a good mood before he wanted to eat.
"The dishes are rich and fragrant. I can tell that you put in a lot of effort. Sister Rongrong, thank you for your hard work." Liumu Bingjian smiled.
Su Rongrong giggled and looked at Yan Shiyi. Yan Shiyi said, "What are you waiting for? Let's eat." Everyone started to eat. After all, she was Yan Shiyi's cook.
Su Xingyu picked up a piece of pork and took a bite. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Various fragrances exploded on his taste buds. Although he rarely ate, tasting medicine was common. He had a tongue that was as sharp as real gold and fire, so he could taste it in one bite. The pork had gone through more than ten complicated processes before it was placed on the plate. It was full of the chef's painstaking efforts. He couldn't help but think, 'Although this girl has a sharp tongue, she's meticulous when it comes to cooking. If she were to be used in cultivation, she would be a rare talent.'
He felt pity for the girl's temperament, but his words were always harsh. "If you were to cultivate diligently, it wouldn't be difficult for you to become a Human Immortal. You wouldn't be stuck at the Second Rank. Cooking is not the right path after all. Cultivators should focus on cultivation. "
Su Rongrong was displeased when he heard that. He said, "Refining medicine and practicing medicine is considered cultivation, but why is cooking not considered cultivation? There are thousands of roads in the world, but all roads lead to the same destination. Don't you know that, Doctor Su? "The last three words were said with a hint of mockery.
Su Xingyu sneered, "Oh? If that's the case, you can also improve your cooking? "
Su Rongrong was getting more and more annoyed. He said loudly, "You take care of your own business. I take care of my cooking. We have nothing to do with each other. The world doesn't belong to you. Why do you care so much?"
Su Xing Yu coldly snorted and said, "I saw that you were walking down the wrong path, so I couldn't help but give you some pointers. Who would have thought that a little girl like you wouldn't appreciate it and would pretend that I didn't say anything."
Su Rongrong wanted to retort, but she remembered that Su Xing Yu had saved her life. She didn't want to make a scene at the banquet and let others laugh at her, so she could only endure it. She was annoyed that Su Xing Yu was clearly a bookworm. He was as inflexible as dogma. She decided not to say another word to him. She got a bowl of soup and walked out to drink. "I won't argue with a bookworm!"
Li Hongzhuang looked at the girl's back as she left and said thoughtfully, "All roads lead to the same destination. She's not wrong. In fact, even the imperial chefs of Demonic Palace can't make these dishes. It's obvious that her culinary skills have reached the peak. Doctor Su denied her achievements in this field, and his words showed that he looked down on her. It's no wonder she's so angry. It's better to apologize to her. "
"Who are you to interfere in the affairs of humans?" Su Xing Yu shouted angrily as he threw his chopsticks and left.
"Did I say something wrong?" Li Hongzhuang looked at the remaining people innocently.
Liumu Bingjian couldn't help but sigh and said, "Landlord Li, why are you playing dumb?
Brother Xingyu's Martial Uncle and Master both died in the hands of the Demon Race. He's already endured enough to eat at the same table as you. Why do you have to provoke him? You must know that we're all on the same boat. If we can't help each other, I'm afraid there's no hope for us to escape. I hope you can respect yourself. "
Li Hongzhuang sneered. "Goddess of War, that's not fair. Many of my elders also died in the hands of the Nine Elites. I haven't even shown you my attitude yet! Moreover, you can say it yourself. Which of my words was selfish and which of my words wasn't out of fairness? The little girl worked hard to cook for us. Why are you pointing fingers at others? Is it because we're demons that we don't even have the right to speak on this boat? "
"Enough!" Shen Liuyun put down her bowl heavily. Her face was tense. "Eat!" She didn't know why, but she glared at Yan Li fiercely.
Yan Li kept quiet out of fear. She kicked Li Hongzhuang below the table, hinting for her to stop while she was ahead. Li Hongzhuang's beautiful eyes were filled with pride. She said to Yan Li telepathically, "Look, there's one less person to fight with us for food. Why did you kick me instead of praising me?"
Yan Li said telepathically, "Be careful not to anger my aunt. If they join forces and throw you off the boat, I won't help you then."
"If you don't help me, I'll drag you down with me. You must be reluctant to see your sister die alone, right? Hehehe." Li Hongzhuang had a seductive expression as she wrapped her bare feet around Yan Li's legs and rubbed them gently. His tattered boots had long since been thrown away when he boarded the ship.
The touch of her skin caused many warm memories to surface in her mind. Yan Li's mind couldn't help but waver. She cursed inwardly, "Vixen!" She hurriedly gathered her thoughts. Under Shen Liuyun's suspicious gaze, she sat up straight and still, sweeping away the food as if nothing had happened.
Li Hongzhuang suddenly felt bored. She stopped what she was doing and focused on eating.
After eating for a while, Liu Letian put down his bowl and chopsticks. He looked at Shen Liuyun and said, "Holy Maiden Shen, now that we've reached this point, we should know how the Kun Boat should sail after entering the passage, right?"
This was a question everyone wanted to know. When the Kun Boat fell, there was no sign of water in the passage. How the Kun Boat would return to the original path after entering the passage was a question worth considering.
Shen Liuyun was about to speak when the boat suddenly tilted to one side, almost standing upright. Everyone protected the table and the dishes in unison. They all recognized the food as the best in the world and didn't want to waste it.
"What's going on?" Zhao Ting asked in surprise.
Not long after, the boat tilted to the other side and flipped over. Moreover, the speed at which it flipped became faster and faster. It became an extremely large swaying, causing the cabin to shake violently.
Zhao Ting's face paled. "Why does it seem like we're sailing on a huge wave?"
"Let's go out and take a look." As soon as Yan Shiyi finished speaking, he transformed into a purple light and disappeared.
Everyone had a cultivation base. They used their True Qi to cover the soles of their feet, allowing them to stand firmly and walk steadily through the turbulence. They didn't panic. They filed onto the deck in a single file. Shen Liuyun yelled, "Shi Shen Yujun, what happened?"
"Here, Holy Maiden!" Yujun jumped down from the observation deck. "This subordinate really can't see anything. I only know that the surface of the sea has been continuously bulging since just now. It seems like a wave has appeared."
Everyone was looking at the surface of the sea. Sure enough, there were many places that bulged and then calmed down. It looked like a wave, but it was much more turbulent than a normal sea. This was because the bulging area was like a giant bubble. It looked extremely viscous, not as clear as a wave. It was extremely strange.
"Hibernation Awakening, it's hibernation Awakening!"
Li Hongzhuang exclaimed in shock. "Little thief Yan, you really didn't lie to me!"
"What do you mean?" Shen Liuyun was puzzled.
Yan Li laughed bitterly. "Before you guys came, the place where we stood was destroyed. The two of us sank down. At that time, we vaguely saw a large number of hibernation Awakening Beasts surrounding us. At that time, a rough calculation was probably no less than a hundred thousand."
"A hundred thousand!" Zhao Ting almost fainted.
Liu Letian's expression was extremely ugly. "What are they doing right now?"
Yujun's pale lips trembled. He said with a trembling voice, "They, they're creating an explosion at the bottom of the sea, making the surface of the sea uneven. They want to throw us down. This water is extremely poisonous to us. We can't touch a single drop. The clan's ancient records say that the hibernation Awakening Beasts have initial intelligence. It's actually true. No wonder none of the darkness beasts were left. In my opinion, the hibernation Awakening Beasts are the overlords here. There's basically no existence that dares to provoke them! "
Even though Su Xingyu had just walked out, he had heard most of the conversation. His expression could not help but tighten as he stared at Yan Li. "What did you guys do? How did you attract all these monsters?"
Li Hongzhuang said innocently, "This cannot be blamed on us. If we want to live, we need to drink water. Who knew that there was a darkness beast hiding at the side to sneak attack Little Thief Yan, startling it …" She pointed at the hibernation Awakening Beasts that was frozen by Liumu Bingjian. "Who knew that its explosion would attract its kind over! Ai, this is really a tragedy. "
Yan Li said with a guilty conscience. "How did you know that it was sneak attacking me?"
Li Hongzhuang laughed tenderly without any scruples. "I didn't know just now. Seeing you like this, I know."
Yan Li's expression did not change but he was secretly shocked. After being together for six years in the Evil Prison, she already knew him like the back of her hand. He did not know if it was a blessing or a curse.
"Li Xingyi, you can still laugh. The disaster was provoked by you guys. Tell me, what should we do now?" Su Xingyu shouted. If he had known that Li Hongzhuang would be on the boat, he would not have come even if he was beaten to death.
Li Hongzhuang laughed. "What can I do? You guys don't listen to my commands. Besides, it's quite interesting to see the boat moving like this, isn't it? "
"It won't do!" Shen Liuyun said coldly. "The Kun Boat was already damaged when it came over, and when it landed, it received a huge impact. If this continues, the boat will quickly fall apart." She was not being alarmist because she disliked Li Hongzhuang. The Kun Boat had been compressed by the air pressure when it came over, and when it landed in the Evil Prison, it had barely withstood the huge impact. In addition, the hibernation Awakening Beasts had exploded below, causing the sea surface to swell up. It was several times more turbulent than normal waves, so the losses were not on the same level.
When everyone heard this, their hearts sank. They couldn't help but look at Shen Liuyun. After all, she was the owner of the boat.
Shen Liuyun asked Shi Shen, who was still on the observation deck, "How far are we from the entrance?"
Shi Shen replied loudly, "Less than twenty li. But Lady Saintess, I also think that if this continues, the boat will not be able to reach the entrance. "
Shen Liuyun pondered for a moment, then said to Liu Letian, "Chief Secretary Liu, please use your Law Domain to bind the objects on the boat. Don't let them continue to be damaged because of collisions."
"No problem." Liu Letian immediately leaped onto the mast. His vital energy surged, and the chains clanked as he bound the Kun Boat. Tang Buluo treated him well. He provided him with sufficient cultivation resources, allowing him to become an Earth True Immortal. Now, he was a well-known figure in Buluo City.
