Happiness?
Indeed, in the eyes of outsiders, he was a proud son of heaven, born with supreme honor and the eldest son of the Ancestor Dragon, the overlord of Untainted Land. Even though the Dragon Tribe had declined, he could still become the guardian of the Demon Tribe, a new power. In the Demon Tribe, his status was only second to the Demon Emperor, Demon Empress, and the East Emperor. Even the Crown Prince Jinwu had to treat him as a junior, but...
To be honest, in Ao Yue's heart, he had never felt happy before.
Looking at the big fat bear eating and sleeping, Ao Yue wanted to be like it for a moment. She didn't care about anything else and just lay there, sleeping and eating in satisfaction.
However!
This was just a thought. His identity determined that he could not live as freely as Rollie.
He shouldered the responsibility of the Monster Race and the Dragon Race. In order to repay Taiyi's kindness, he had to do his best to help the Monster Race seize the position of the protagonist of heaven and earth. In order to repay the kindness of raising them, he had to think of a way to protect the Dragon Race. Not to mention restoring their past glory, at least they could not lose the land of the Four Seas.
How could he be as happy as this bear when all these things were on him?
As she thought about it, Ao Yue shook her head, and a desolate look flashed across her face. Then, she returned to normal and continued to take out spiritual fruits from the fruit basket to feed the big fat bear.
"Roar ~" When it smelled the fragrance, Rollie continued to open its cute mouth and bite the spiritual fruit. It chewed and swallowed it.
At the same time, the mechanical voice of the system rang in its mind, but it was blocked.
[Ding! The host is still as steady as a mountain when facing a Quasi-Sage expert from the enemy camp. He is still sleeping lazily. He has displayed the style of a salted fish to the fullest. Treasure Map 1, salted fish points 2000.]
Ding! The host ate the food without hesitation when faced with a Quasi-Sage expert from the enemy camp. He didn't even think about it. Such a salted fish can be said to be of the highest quality. Primordial Spirit Strength 3, Physical Body Strength 3, Salted Fish Points 1,000.
Ding! The host is eating and sleeping. From time to time, he will scratch his stomach and itch. Magic power 1.
……
Up until now, she had not figured out anything. Houtu shook her head and felt that she was really useless. If this went on, she would not be able to win against Taiyi in the future.
"Hmm? Ao Yue!" Just as she was feeling troubled, Houtu's expression suddenly changed. She noticed the Dragon Clan youth sitting beside Gungun. Wasn't he Ao Yue, whom they had met at Mount Buzhou a hundred years ago?
"Back then, he was taken away by Taiyi. Now that he's here, and all his injuries seem to have healed, could it be that it's really as Rollie thinks?”Houtu was surprised. Then, she frowned and looked serious.
Although Ao Yue was defeated by Kun Peng a hundred years ago, and she had defeated Kun Peng, that battle could not be used as a basis to judge the strength of the three of them.
Ao Yue had lost because he had been ambushed by the Kun Peng from the beginning and was seriously injured. Then, he had fought the Kun Peng head-on with his injured body.
When she was dealing with Kun Peng, Kun Peng's magic power had already been consumed a lot because of the battle with Ao Yue. After that, he was hit by Rollie's sneak attack, and she also added a palm strike. Only then did she easily win.
Now, Ao Yue seemed to be in her peak condition. If they fought later, Houtu honestly did not have the determination to win.
Thinking of this, Houtu made a hand seal with her fingers and began to secretly contact the other Ancestors of Sorcery.
……
On the other side, on the grassland.
As Ao Yue fed it, Rollie opened its mouth to eat. As it ate, Rollie finally ate until it was full. The spiritual energy in its body was difficult to digest for a moment, so it closed its mouth and sat up with a whoosh. It used its Devour divine power to speed up the refinement of the spiritual energy in its body. Soon, it was done refining. It rubbed its big belly and a human-like satisfaction appeared on its face. It closed its eyes and smiled."This meal is really good!”
"Is that so? As long as you like it." Ao Yue's calm voice sounded from the side.
Upon hearing this voice, Gungun opened its eyes and turned to look at Ao Yue. It wasn't surprised at all, as if it had long known that Ao Yue was here and that the person feeding it was him. It turned its fat body around and faced him. Then, it leaned back slightly, and its two bear paws supported itself on the ground to maintain a relatively comfortable position. It asked,"Yo, I haven't seen you in a few years. Why are you here? You even brought me delicious food?”
"Not a few years, but a hundred years." Ao Yue corrected Gungun. Then, she picked up the fruit basket in her hand. There were still some spiritual fruits left in it. She handed it to it and said,"Back then, you used the Vermilion Bird Flag and the Dragon Pearl to heal me, preventing my origin from being damaged. Today, I'm here to repay your kindness.”
"Oh, oh." Upon hearing this, Gungun sat up a little more and reached out to take the fruit basket. He nodded repeatedly and thought to himself,"As expected of a rare true gentleman in the Wilderness. It's true that he knows how to repay kindness!”
" I don't have the Yellow Middle Plum, Ginseng Fruit, or 9,000-year-old Ninth Water Immortal Peach that you want, but these spiritual fruits are all rare and precious. Even in the Sorcerer Tribe, you might not find them. Consider it a small token of my appreciation. If there's a chance in the future, I'll find a way to get the Ninth Water Immortal Peach and send it to you.”Ao Yue continued to speak to Gungun when it stuck its head into the fruit basket.
"Yes, yes. Thank you, thank you.”There were indeed some spiritual fruits that Rollie had never eaten before. There was even a bamboo shoot of bitter bamboo. It was unknown where he had gotten it. In terms of value, this bamboo shoot was not inferior to the ginseng fruit at all. It was even more compatible with him. Rollie liked it very much. He raised his head and said to Ao Yue with a smile.
Looking at the smiling chubby face in front of him, Ao Yue was stunned for a moment. He felt even more envious of this fatty. He wanted to smile so happily, but…he just couldn't.
"Oh, it's delicious. This is a Mandala Fruit, right? It grows in the Blood Sea. I've wanted to eat it before, but Daoist Netherworld River is too fierce. I can't beat him.”Gungun did not know what Ao Yue was thinking. After refining the spiritual energy from before, it could not help but start eating again. One of its bear paws took out a strange-looking red fruit from the fruit basket and asked Ao Yue as it ate.
"I used a treasure to exchange for it with him. He agreed, but after getting the treasure, he went back on his word.”Ao Yue replied casually.
"Uh, you beat him?"
"No, it was just a few moves. I picked it and left. He couldn't stop me.”
"Impressive!" Gungun raised its other bear paw and gave Ao Yue a thumbs up.
Ao Yue didn't know what this gesture meant, but when he heard Gungun say that he was very powerful, he could roughly guess, so he didn't ask. After Gungun almost finished eating the fruit, he organized his words in his heart and said to it,"Fellow Daoist Gungun, actually, other than repaying my kindness today, I'm also…"
