He followed her to the courtyard. The woman had been silent the entire time, as if she had turned into a human girl who only knew how to plant flowers. She quietly took care of the flowers in the nursery and ignored Wang Hao.
Her actions were very serious. She treated taking care of the flowers and plants as something that she really needed to do.
Wang Hao was a little mesmerized by the sight. He didn't say anything to break the silence. He only felt that the woman's back was beautiful no matter how he looked at it.
After a while, the woman finally turned around and looked at Wang Hao.
"You helped me complete a task…I should…reward you.”
Wang Hao was stunned for a moment before he immediately understood. It seemed like that Daoist really had a huge grudge with this Demon King. No wonder her expression immediately changed when she heard that he had killed that stupid Daoist.
However, Wang Hao really couldn't accept these words. He frowned and replied,
"I say, haven't you been a demon king for too long? I'm not a small demon under you. It's repayment, it's repayment!"
Only then did the woman realize her slip of the tongue and gently shook her head. This demon was right. She had probably been a demon king for too long, and even normal communication was a little rusty.
"Then what do you want?"
Hearing this, Wang Hao immediately fell silent. He sized up the extremely pure woman in a plain robe. He almost blurted out the words,"Why don't you just marry me?", but he forcefully suppressed them.
What a joke. If she said that, this woman would immediately throw out her bone spike and fight him to the death.
"What's your name?"
"Me?" The woman pointed at herself, and a trace of absent-mindedness appeared on her face, as if she had recalled something from a long time ago.
"They call me Madam White Bones…"
"This nickname is too ugly. I'm talking about your real name! My name is Wang Hao."
Wang Hao shook his head with a look of disdain.
Hearing Wang Hao's unpleasant words, the woman's face turned gloomy again. Her eyes were extremely dangerous. After thinking for a while, she said,
"Before I became a demon…my name was Gu Ruolan.”
"Gu Ruolan?" Wang Hao repeated. It didn't sound like this woman was born a monster. Thinking of her nickname, Madam White Bones, and her two bone spurs…
Wang Hao was enlightened. F * ck, this guy was the White Bone Demon!!
Although he did not know if Gu Ruolan was the one who was beaten up by the monkey three times in the original novel of Journey to the West, there was no doubt that Gu Ruolan was the White Bone Demon!
" Have you…seen a monkey…" Wang Hao's lips twitched unnaturally as he asked.
"What?" Gu Ruolan was dumbfounded.
"Forget it, it's nothing." Wang Hao shook his head and looked at the surrounding courtyard.
"Didn't you want to repay me? I'm living quite comfortably here, so why don't you just give me this small courtyard?”
Gu Ruolan obviously hesitated for a moment. She looked at the surrounding flowers and grass, and at everything that was familiar.
She had moved this small courtyard from a human village. It was the place where she grew up and lived when she was still a human.
However, she still nodded and agreed. She was indeed not used to owing anyone. As long as she could repay the favor, anything was fine.
"Alright then!" Wang Hao laughed. He had finally become the owner of this small courtyard. There was no need to be polite.
With a leap, he used Rahu's Haste and returned to the forest, dragging the deer he had brought back into the small courtyard.
With a flip of his wrist, a small golden cauldron appeared in his hand. He casually threw it on the ground, making a dull "dong" sound, and its size immediately increased.
"What are you doing?" Gu Ruolan looked at Wang Hao's actions and was extremely puzzled.
"Cooking, of course! I'm already hungry, and I even fought with you…"
As Wang Hao spoke, his hands did not stop moving. He skinned and washed the deer by the well water. The ground became dirty again. Gu Ruolan's pretty eyebrows twitched as she watched, as if she was going to make trouble at any moment.
Taking out the low-grade magic treasure from his cosmos bag, Wang Hao touched the blade, nodded, and began to cut.
He cut the meat very carefully and selected the best meat from the deer's thigh. The pieces of venison were as thin as transparent cicada wings, sparkling and translucent.
Wang Hao had already thoroughly studied the Origin Returning Cauldron. This thing was worthy of being the Culinary God's treasured cauldron. Steaming, boiling, roasting, frying... all functions were integrated into one, making it convenient.
Wang Hao grabbed the handle and slowly poured his magic power into it. The eyes of the two dragon heads on the handle lit up as if they had come alive. They drilled into the cauldron and spat out two bursts of flames.
This flame was magical. Although the temperature wasn't high, even without fuel, it could burn for a long time. It could even change the temperature according to Wang Hao's will.
The flames of ordinary cauldrons burned at the bottom, but the Origin Returning Cauldron burned directly inside. Its lid was also very flat. Wang Hao directly flipped it over and covered the cauldron's mouth.
"What are you doing?" This series of actions puzzled Gu Ruohan.
"Have you eaten teppanyaki before?" Wang Hao gave her a mysterious smile. He picked up the deer meat and slowly placed it on the lid.
"Tsk tsk tsk…"
For a moment, the venison was roasted on the iron plate until oil and water splashed everywhere, attracting the appetite of the people.
Wang Hao wasn't in a hurry. He took out a salt jar and his treasured hexagonal powder and sprinkled it gently on the venison. Immediately, a strange fragrance spread in all directions.
He couldn't take it anymore. He picked up a piece of venison and put it in his mouth. The deliciousness of the venison and the strange fragrance of the seasoning instantly exploded in his mouth.
Wang Hao chewed a lot before reluctantly swallowing the venison. Fortunately, he had grown human teeth. Otherwise, he would have wasted such a delicious meal.
Moreover, when the venison entered his stomach, a slight heat flow surged out and entered his limbs, making him feel relaxed and happy.
"The Origin Returning Cauldron really lives up to its reputation. Cooking ordinary venison can actually improve one's physique…"
Wang Hao was very satisfied with this cauldron.
When he turned his head to look at Gu Ruohan, he realized that this icy woman's eyes were staring blankly at the roasted venison.
"Do you want to eat?" Wang Hao asked.
Only then did Gu Ruohan react. He quickly shook his head and said,""I haven't eaten anything for more than five hundred years.”
"Then you're really miserable." Wang Hao sprinkled seasoning on all the venison, picked up a piece, and held it in front of her, saying,"Come, don't be so restrained. Ah-"
Gu Ruohan looked at Wang Hao's hand in disgust and opened it. He picked up another piece of venison and took a bite.
Shock immediately appeared between her brows. She looked at the venison in her hand carefully, as if she was wondering why ordinary venison was so delicious. Could it be that she had not eaten for too long?
For a moment, Gu Ruohan's expression was still extremely cold, but his hands did not stop. He quickly removed the venison from the cauldron lid and ate without stopping.
Wang Hao looked at her obvious reaction and shook his head. He thought to himself that women were always tsundere. Although they disagreed verbally, their bodies were very obedient.
