Chapter 133: Late Night, Where to Go?
“Bubble tea?”
“Made from chaos spirit milk!”
Now that’s a rare gem, something you can’t just stumble upon every day! Even Lin Feng, after wandering through the Nine States and hopping between various Celestial Mansions for thousands of years, has encountered countless demon beasts. But when it comes to the chaotic blue cow, he’s only met Qing Dai once, showing just how rare it is.
Zitong’s light purple eyes gleamed with a curious sparkle. Qing Dai realized they had probably already guessed her origins and physique. No need to hide it anymore, so she boldly nodded and said, “Yep, consider it my way of thanking everyone for letting me have the dragon fish pearl!”
Ye Qingge chimed in, “Isn’t that a bit too extravagant?” While the dragon fish pearl was quite valuable, it simply couldn’t compare to chaos spirit milk. It was like comparing clouds to dirt. Qing Dai didn’t feel right sharing something so precious right out of the gate.
She waved her hand, quickly adding, “It’s fine, I have plenty… well, I mean, I’ll have more!” As she said that, she couldn’t help but mentally grumble about how heavy it truly was, regardless of its value!
Ye Qingge: “…”
At this moment, Lin Feng suddenly stepped forward, a serious look on his face as he asked, “Are you saying that even if you milk it while refining the essence of other rare demon beasts, you can quickly replenish it?”
Que Ruyi and the others caught on as well, glancing at Qing Dai with astonished expressions. If that’s the case, it would be utterly outrageous! The chaotic blue cow is so rare that only a few ancient texts mention it. Most of those accounts describe its powerful defenses and terrifying abilities. Even the bits about chaos spirit milk are brief.
Now they realize… if Qing Dai could continuously produce such a heavenly treasure, any faction would go to any lengths to get it!
Qing Dai thought for a moment and nodded, “I’m not quite sure, but it seems to be the case for now!”
After saying that, she mused, “Why is he asking this? Doesn’t he think I’m just going to milk myself on a schedule? Does he really think I’m a dairy cow?!”
Lin Feng’s face split into a grin, his eyes sparkling with excitement, “That’s wonderful! If so, I won’t have to worry anymore!”
He turned to Qing Dai and continued, “You showing up at just the right time is fantastic, heh heh!”
The others looked at Lin Feng, utterly baffled, as they waited for some clarification.
Lin Feng chuckled and finally said, “I need to refine a brand left by the previous master of this Celestial Mansion. It’s unavoidable; he will definitely notice!”
“At that time, it’ll be a battle of attrition! I brought you guys here so that when the time comes, you can lend me a hand!”
He paused, his eyes glinting with determination, “But if I have a continuous supply of chaos spirit milk, it’ll be a piece of cake!”
After hearing this, the girls finally understood. Qing Dai rolled her eyes and felt a bit stiff, thinking, “This guy really has his sights set on this!” For a moment, she felt flustered, unsure if she should let Lin Feng easily use her like this. Wouldn’t that seem too casual?
A moment later, the group returned to the lakeside as the daylight slowly faded away. In the Celestial Mansion, there were changes of day and night as well. The night enveloped the land, and all fell into silence.
A bonfire lit up the shore. Que Ruyi and the others sat by the lake while Lin Feng started making bubble tea.
Quick reminder: If you can’t find the book by its title, try searching for the author. It may just have been renamed!
Inside the Celestial Mansion, there were countless rare treasures, all sorts of precious materials from the Nine States could be found here, including some spiritual teas.
Lin Feng expertly prepared bubble tea using spirit tea leaves. Soon enough, cups of rich and aromatic bubble tea were ready. He brought them over, handing each person a cup.
“Yum, this is delicious!”
“I’ve had a lot of bubble tea, but never one this good!”
“Hey, that’s because I’ve been dreaming of this taste for thousands of years after that one time!”
After taking a sip, everyone couldn’t stop praising the tea. Qing Dai hesitated for a moment but then took a sip and was instantly captivated by the unique flavor.
“Wow, it really is that good!” However, she felt a bit strange, especially seeing Lin Feng gulp it down. She couldn’t shake off the odd feeling; after all, it was her milk…
Shaking her head to dismiss those odd thoughts, she reassured herself, “At least it’s better than how it was when he was doing the milking!”
Time ticked by. The group savored their bubble tea and enjoyed roasted meat, feeling utterly content.
Suddenly, Que Ruyi said, “I wonder how the Nine States are doing right now?
“Can Ye Xi fend off the invasions from the other Celestial Mansions?”
Ye Qingge frowned, also worried about the state of the Liyue Celestial Dynasty.
Lin Feng, glancing at the sizzling roast, said, “Don’t worry; once my diary is out, my identity won’t stay a secret for long!”
“I also have some trump cards among those Celestial Mansions; with them around, we won’t have major problems!”
He paused, then added, “Moreover, the true masterminds hiding behind the scenes won’t reveal themselves easily!”
“And then there’s the Celestial Realm; they’re truly our greatest adversaries!”
Upon hearing this, Que Ruyi and the others grew serious, the atmosphere turning a bit tense. How much longer could they enjoy this peaceful time?
Lin Feng noticed their silence and smiled, “Don’t worry; I’ve got everything under control! Of course, with Qing Dai’s help, we’ll be just fine!”
Just then, Qing Dai sipped her bubble tea and nearly choked, coughing a few times.
She felt a bit speechless, thinking, “Am I really that important?”
But now, she was already on the pirate ship—there was no getting off. She had to stick with Lin Feng till the end.
At that moment, Que Ruyi looked at her earnestly and said, “Sister Qing Dai, I’m counting on you!”
Ye Qingge added, “You can do it!”
Zitong didn’t say a word but gave her a firm nod of affirmation.
Qing Dai replied, “I… will do my best!”
“Haha, come on, let’s keep drinking! After we fill our bellies, let’s rest well tonight. We’ve got serious business to take care of tomorrow!”
Lin Feng served up more roasted meat, and the mood lightened once more.
The lively atmosphere continued until midnight, after which everyone dispersed back to their own chambers.
Lin Feng watched the others’ retreating figures, momentarily feeling troubled.
“Tonight, where to go?”
