"Haha, then I'll accept your kind words, Your Excellency."

Fen Tianming was clearly surprised by Ji Fanya's words. He was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "But Master Pot, how come you can cook magical beasts at such a young age? You're not a magical chef, are you?"

Not to mention that the Demon Chefs are all quite old, their temperaments are all arrogant and condescending, but Ji Fanya's demeanor doesn't seem to fit that description.

"No, I just enjoy cooking."

A hint of reminiscence appeared in Ji Fanya's eyes. "My father was a cook, and I was exposed to it from a young age."

"So it's a family tradition, no wonder."

Fen Tianming then realized and said, "You've truly surpassed your father. He must be very proud of you, right?"

My father is no longer with us.

Upon hearing this, Ji Fanya paused for a moment, then smiled with relief and said, "However, I think if he were still alive, he would definitely be proud of me."

"I'm sorry, I didn't know, I brought up your sadness."

Fen Tianming quickly apologized and awkwardly changed the subject, saying, "However, you must have been eating delicious food since you were a child, which is quite different from me."

"kindness?"

Ji Fanya asked curiously, "Is your father a bad cook?"

"No, my dad doesn't cook, my mom does, but it's really not good."

At this point, Fen Tianming's pupils contracted slightly, as if recalling some unpleasant memories. "When I was little, I was ignorant and disliked my mother's cooking skills, so I refused to eat. Then she went to special training."

"That's great, it means your mother cares about you a lot."

Thinking of the fact that Bei Qingling's whereabouts are still unknown, Ji Fanya's eyes dimmed. "You should be able to eat delicious meals every day now, right?"

"no."

Unexpectedly, Fen Tianming suddenly covered his face with his hand, shook his head and said, "A few months later, my mother used her strength to make me eat obediently, and I never dared to complain about her again."

"...?"

Ji Fanya didn't quite understand, and after a long pause, he subconsciously asked, "So, what kind of special training did your mother give you?"

"Yes, she went straight to the martial arts gym for special training."

Fen Tianming said with a pained expression, "It's a childhood trauma. Now, I feel terrified whenever I see my mother."

Ji Fanya: "..."

Yes, this is definitely my biological mother.

This incident shows that when faced with an insurmountable problem, we can try to think about it from another perspective.

Fen Tianming's mother is a great role model!

"Swallowing~"

Ji Fanya and Fen Tianming were chatting casually when suddenly, the shrunken Xiao Bo ran up to Jun Feijue with something in its mouth, looking like it was a treasure.

Jun Feijue reached out and caught it, only to find that it was a blue gemstone.

Moreover, I feel like this gem looks familiar.

"Cough cough cough..."

Upon seeing the gem, Zhan Wushuang was immediately speechless. He quickly stepped forward to block Fen Tianming's view, pointing at Gu Ye's tent and then at the sapphire, stammering, "You...you..."

"You took it off the tent?"

Jun Feijue frowned and looked at Xiao Bo, asking.

"Swallow."

Xiao Bo nodded quickly, and then, to Zhan Wushuang's astonishment, pulled out several more pills from his clothes.

Yellow, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple—so all the colors are included.

Then, Xiao Bo squatted down on the ground, opened his big round eyes, and kept wagging his tail, waiting for Jun Feijue's praise.

"Girl, your carelessness is going to get you killed."
