Mo Wenjie was almost asphyxiated by anger. I finally understood what it means to be the most poisonous heart of a woman. For personal satisfaction, one would not even consider the camaraderie and brotherhood of war. Such people should be avoided!
Qin Feifei's almond-shaped eyes flared, not noticing that you have grown some courage. Try leaving one and see if I know if your ears will hurt. But I can guarantee that your bottom will get hot.
Mo Wenjie hurriedly covered his buttocks upon hearing this.
This made Qin Feifei laugh uncontrollably. How dare you come to the depths of the secret place, I don't even know what kind of courage you have to be here.
Mo Wenjie also stopped teasing her. He walked to the side of the dog badger and quickly peeled open its chest, taking out the demon essence. After that, Mo Wenjie looked at Qin Feifei and said, "Come over and absorb the demon essence energy with me!"
Qin Feifei was very compliant, walking over to Mo Wenjie's side and sitting cross-legged to start absorbing the energy of the demon essence along with Mo Wenjie.
It's not clear how long it took for the two people to slowly open their eyes.
Qin Feifei stared at Mo Wenjie in shock. How did you do it? My strength is higher than yours, but I have absorbed less demon essence energy than you. Where is the problem?
Mo Wenjie looked at himself and realized he was only a late-stage human immortal, feeling very dissatisfied. "I am a late-stage human immortal, how could I possibly absorb so little energy? What's wrong? Well, since it's like this now, there's no use regretting it. Let's just take it slow!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Feifei became extremely angry. "You damn fool! You're still not satisfied until now? I just promoted to the late-stage of Earth Immortal, and now you should be content!"
Mo Wenjie looked at her, too lazy to waste words. Quickly roast meat and eat well to do the work.
Qin Feifei shook her head upon hearing this. "Mo Wenjie, I'm completely baffled by you. After eating and drinking, what else is there to do?"
Mo Wenjie smiled and said, "Don't you want to absorb more demon essence?"
Qin Feifei, upon hearing this, searched frantically, but there were no more demon essence. Mo Wenjie quickly told me where the demon essence was.
Mo Wenjie chuckled, "Look how anxious you are. Just listen to me and you'll definitely get what you want. You clean the badger meat here and cut it into pieces. I'll go out to find some spices; there's an abundance of herbs all over the mountains and hills. We can just gather some to make the roasted meat smell for miles."
Qin Feifei looked at Mo Wenjie and nodded, "Whatever you say is fine. I'll just listen to you!"
Mo Wenjie smiled at Qin Feifei and said, "As long as you're obedient, that's fine. Just follow what I say, and I guarantee your improvement speed will get faster and faster. Start preparing yourself, brother will go get some spices and we'll roast meat to eat."
Mo Wenjie walked out of the cave and began to look for spices. There was indeed no shortage of various wild herbs here, such as star anise, clove, mace, anise seed, fennel seed, ginger root, bay leaf, cassia bark, and so on. He collected the spices and also discovered some hundred-year-old or even several-century-old medicinal herbs such as astragalus, codonopsis pilosula, salvia miltiorrhiza, ligusticum chuanxiong, aconitum carmichaelii, amomum villosum, Yijin Clock (a type of Chinese herb), etc. There were also rare snow lotus flowers, safflower, ginseng, ginkgo biloba (tianma), ganoderma lucidum (lingzhi). The more he looked at them, the more excited Mo Wenjie became. This time he was so lucky that it was hard not to improve his strength. With these things back home he could concoct pills to enhance his power. He didn't care about any demon beasts at all. Saying is doing; he hurriedly picked them up and soon returned loaded with his findings.
Qin Feifei looked at the abundance of flowers and herbs Mo Wenjie had brought, but she didn't know what they were or what they were for. She could only watch as Mo Wenjie tinkered with the things, and then he smiled and asked Qin Feifei, "Guan Xiaomei, have you prepared the badger meat?"
Qin Feifei rolled her eyes at him upon hearing this. "You're looking down on me, aren't you? I can't do something as simple as this? It's a pity for my precious sword now. This was supposed to be used to uphold justice and support the weak against the strong, but now it's just like a kitchen knife!"
Mo Wenjie looked at Qin Feifei's concerned expression and said, "Okay, can you please show a little dignity? What's wrong with your broken sword? I'll give you a real treasure later!"
Qin Feifei shook her head at Mo Wenjie, "With your current situation, how can you even give me a treasure sword? You haven't even got a decent outfit yourself yet and you're still bragging. I have no idea where you got the confidence from!"
Mo Wenjie smiled and waved his hand, "Let's not talk about that. Let's start roasting the meat and eat it!" He found some dry wood to make a roasting rack and began his meat grilling. He kept spreading the sauce all over the meat, and soon the aroma filled the cave, making everyone want to have a bite of the roasted meat!
Qin Feifei looked at Mo Wenjie in disbelief. "It's too incredible! Just by randomly tinkering for a while, the meat he grilled smells so delicious. I want to take a bite so badly!"
Mo Wenjie handed her a skewer of roasted meat and said, "Look at your naive expression, you've been drooling like a river. Hurry up and eat, or else you'll be driven to insanity by hunger!"
Qin Feifei took the roasted meat and ate it mouthful after mouthful, shouting as she ate, "Delicious! It's so satisfying!"
After they were both full, Qin Feifei said, "Let me rest for a while. Do whatever you want, don't disturb me while I'm resting!"
Mo Wenjie sighed and shook his head, "You are truly the type of person who gets hungry and dumb, full and deaf, and not hungry nor full but unwilling to move."
Qin Feifei gave him a fierce glance upon hearing this. "You're the only one who knows how to flatter people. It's as hard to get a compliment out of your mouth as it is to climb to heaven!"
Mo Wenjie chuckled and said, "I'll go roast the meat by the cave mouth!"
Qin Feifei was confused upon hearing this. "We just had our meal. Why are you roasting meat? Are you not full? If you're not full, let's roast it here. Why do we have to roast it by the cave mouth?"
Mo Wenjie gave her a glance and said, "You're a typical foodie. I'm going to roast meat by the cave mouth so that the demons can smell the scent and come to attack me. That way, we'll have demon essence!"
Qin Feifei looked at Mo Wenjie and said, "You're really smart! Any method can come up with. It seems that this time I've chosen the right person. Men are all bad, but there are still some good ones!"
Mo Wenjie started roasting meat by the cave mouth. Soon, the aroma of the meat drifted in the air. Suddenly, a series of footsteps sounded, and Mo Wenjie smiled and said, "It's working! We'll soon be able to absorb demon essence!" Before he finished speaking, a man and a woman emerged from the shadows. Their clothes were tattered and their bodies were covered in wounds. They supported each other as they approached.
Qin Feifei saw this and couldn't help but burst into a laugh. "This is what you mean by demon essence? You attracted these thieves who are also heaven-stage cultivators, yet they haven't attracted any demons. Once they finish their meal and drink, they will be powerful enough to threaten us. We will be in trouble then!"
Mo Wenjie glared at her and said, "You have so little faith in me? If they behave themselves, we can even take them in. But if they don't, we'll make them see what happens. They shouldn't think that I'm an easy target. In fact, I'm a rose bush with thorns. Whoever tries to touch it will be pierced to death!"
Qin Feifei looked at Mo Wenjie's appearance and couldn't help but laugh. "With your current attire, you really are a thorny rose. People aren't laughing at you for not being masculine or feminine; you should be grateful they're not!"
The two people came to the cave mouth and looked at Mo Wenjie and Qin Feifei.
The woman spoke up, "I'm sorry to interrupt you. My name is Fang Jiaoyi, and he's Han Shichang. We are disciples of Tie Shan Men and came here for training. We were chased here by demons. We hope you can take us in, even if it's just to feed us and let us leave."
Mo Wenjie looked at Qin Feifei and asked, "What's your opinion?"
