Phew. ha. Phew. Hah!
From a certain point of view, Tian Chi was actually not the person walking at the front of the group. There was another figure more than ten meters in front of him.
The figure panted as he slashed a path between the vines and shrubs with a long sword.
The young man walking at the front was carrying a very large luggage bag, which almost covered his entire body. He looked very heavy, which obviously increased the difficulty of his work on this road.
"Woo! Just how big was this forest? Why hadn't it hit the end after so long?”
Compared to the few men and women walking at the back who seemed to be sightseeing, the young man walking at the front was taking big gulps of air while desperately waving the long sword in his hand. He was obviously exhausted.
It was his first time leaving Qianmo Village today. When he left the village, he was still full of reluctance and excitement to see more new things. However, after a few minutes, the youth's reluctance and excitement had disappeared in the extremely high-intensity training.
Under Tian Chi's request, Xiao Ruoshui not only carried all the luggage alone, but also ran in front of Tian Chi and the others with Unshadowed, sweeping away all the plants and rocks that might hinder their path.
Originally, Xiao Ruoshui thought that this kind of work was similar to when he usually went to weed, but after a while, he found that he was completely wrong.
Carrying such heavy luggage to constantly swing his sword to clear away branches and weeds, and occasionally moving large rocks blocking the way, the physical consumption was far beyond the teenager's imagination.
Walking beside Xiao Ruoshui was a creature that looked about the size of an ordinary wolfhound. It was covered in black fur. As it walked beside Xiao Ruoshui, it helped him remove some of the weeds in the lower positions.
This black creature was the beast-shaped demon seed that had fought with Xiao Ruoshui yesterday. After being frozen by Su Mengyao for a long time to calm down, Tian Chi let this little demon out. Then, he tamed it with his Demon King's might and casually threw it to Xiao Ruoshui to be used as a pet.
It had to be said that after witnessing the power of high-level demonic seeds like Tian Chi and Su Mengyao, this small beast-shaped demonic seed was so scared that it almost peed its pants. Therefore, it could only tightly hug Xiao Ruoshui's thigh and try to survive as a pet.
Oh right, Xiao Ruoshui also gave a very simple name, Wang Cai. It was really a good name that was full of dignity and dominance.
"Master, how far are we from Yuzhou? How many more minutes do we have to reach?" After walking for about half a day, Xia Wu finally couldn't stand the boredom of traveling and took the initiative to ask.
This ah, with this kind of movement speed, Tian Chi thought for a moment and said with a smile,"Yuzhou isn't too far away. If we continue walking like this, we'll reach it in about three days.”
Three days? No way! At this moment, Xia Wu and Su Mengyao looked at each other with a strange expression.
To be honest, for Demon Masters of their strength, the distance from Qianmo Village to Yuzhou would only take a few minutes. It was hard to imagine spending three days to walk there.
Of course, to Tian Chi, these few days were not a problem at all. He was not really in such a hurry to hurry.
This was because he had agreed to meet Xiao Hanfeng in Yuzhou half a month later. Only eleven days had passed since then. If Tian Chi didn't want to be late, they still had at least four days.
Besides, all the Demon Slayers in the Southern Region were under his control.
If nothing unexpected happened, they would need at least a few more years to grow to the point where they could threaten him. This period of time could be considered the calm before the storm. Tian Chi did not have much time left to be so relaxed.
At night, Tian Chi and his group set up a few tents and started a bonfire in front of the tents, preparing dinner.
The firewood was picked up by Xiao Ruoshui, the tent was set up by Xiao Ruoshui, and the wild vegetables for dinner were also brought by Xiao Ruoshui. To be honest, this really exhausted him.
Tian Chi actually wanted to help Xiao Ruoshui, but Su Mengyao and Xia Wu naturally wouldn't allow Tian Chi to do these rough jobs. Then, the two Demon Masters with delicate bodies and expensive flesh naturally wouldn't do these rough jobs themselves, so they could only let Xiao Ruoshui do it anyway.
However, Xiao Ruoshui was desperately cooking dinner, but he did not expect that this dinner would bring him a lot of trouble.
Just as Xiao Ruoshui had tirelessly prepared the ingredients for dinner and set up all the tents, the sky had already completely darkened.
At this time, the four of them had already arrived in the wilderness far away from Qianmo Village. Because there were no villages or towns around, they could only eat and sleep in the forest.
At night, the forest was so quiet that one could not even see their own fingers. They could only rely on a burning bonfire for illumination and a smaller bonfire for cooking.
Of course, this was only the case for Xiao Ruoshui. After all, the other few were high-level demons. Their body structure was different from ordinary people. They could see even in complete darkness. In fact, they did not need something like a bonfire at all.
"Sigh, everything is fine along the way, but there is no place to stay. It seems that I will have to sleep in the tent for several nights in a row.”
In contrast to Xiao Ruoshui's busy figure, Xia Wu's slender body, which was lazily lying on a carpet beside the bonfire, was particularly eye-catching.
When she noticed that Tian Chi's gaze was intentionally or unintentionally sweeping towards her, the corners of this woman's mouth revealed a smile as she winked at her master.
It would be a ghost if you were afraid. It would be better to say that even ghosts would be afraid of you.
After hearing Xia Wu's complete nonsense, Tian Chi, who was sitting not far away from her, could not help but ridicule her. He lowered his head and did not look at her posture that could easily cause people to fantasize.
What was this shameless woman trying to do? Was she thinking of sneaking into His Highness 'tent at night? That was too enviable! How shameless!
At this moment, Su Mengyao, who was on the other side, blushed in embarrassment at her indecent thoughts. Her originally fair jade-like face became even more charming after being stained with a little red.
However, on the other side of the bonfire, beside the slightly smaller bonfire, Xiao Ruoshui completely ignored the strange atmosphere on the other side of the bonfire and wholeheartedly began her journey of cooking.
Wild bracken, wild ginger, wild radish, salted meat, rye bread, and some common seasonings and pots and pans were all the ingredients Xiao Ruoshui had on hand.
Although these ingredients looked a little simple, Xiao Ruoshui did not care at all. Instead, she still confidently began to cook dinner for the group.
He first peeled the unsightly wild radishes and wild ginger, then cut the radishes into small pieces of the same size and shredded the ginger. Then, he began to process the wild bracken and the rich pickled meat.
It was unknown whether it was because she had become much stronger recently, but although Xiao Ruoshui's speed when processing the ingredients was so fast that it was too fast for the eyes to take in, she somehow gave people a feeling that she was taking leisurely strides.
After a while, Xiao Ruoshui brought out some bread with crispy skin and soft inside, as well as a stew mixed with wild bracken, wild radish, and marinated meat.
When the lid of a small pot of stew was lifted and released, a rich fragrance was like the brightest light in the night, attracting everyone's attention to the pot in the young man's hand.
Coo! Under the temptation of this fragrance, even Tian Chi, who usually did not have any requirements for physical objects, could not help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. His face looked like his appetite had been completely aroused.
It had to be said that Xiao Ruoshui's culinary skills were indeed not bad. She did not know if it was because it was delicious or for some other reason, but the food cooked by his hands always had an alluring fragrance.
"It's so delicious. It's just such a simple stew and toast. Why does it taste so special?”
When the stew entered his mouth, Tian Chi took a deep breath, as if he wanted to completely absorb this fragrance into his stomach.
As Xiao Ruoshui's culinary skills were too good, even Su Mengyao, who usually did not eat much, and Xia Wu, who usually only drank fresh blood, made an exception and ate a little. They also nodded silently.
"Is that so? It's good that everyone likes it. I don't have any other skills, but I'm a little confident in cooking.”
When she saw that even the two reserved ladies were eating so happily, Xiao Ruoshui's eyes showed a look of surprise.
To be honest, he had always been a little afraid of Su Mengyao and Xia Wu. He did not even dare to talk to them.
Because of their powerful strength and noble temperament, they were completely different from the other girls in Qianmo Village. In addition, they did not know what their identities were, so Xiao Ruoshui was more or less afraid.
Of course, at the beginning, Xiao Ruoshui also had some thoughts about Teacher Tian Chi.
Not only was this man extremely powerful, but he also seemed to know everything and was so good to her. Therefore, at first, she more or less suspected that he had ulterior motives.
However, when she discovered that although this Teacher Tian Chi was unfathomable, he was completely like an ordinary person in other aspects, Xiao Ruoshui's suspicion was slowly dispelled. Moreover, Tian Chi had saved her grandfather and could be said to be her benefactor.
Now that she saw Su Mengyao and Xia Wu eating the food that she had cooked very normally, Xiao Ruoshui unconsciously let down some of her vigilance and began to dare to interact with these two beautiful big sisters.
