"High Priest, your cooking skills are really good!" Qinglan immediately flattered him.
Nan Xing took two bites and nodded, "Although you only cook for your sister, which affects family unity, your cooking is really delicious."
Wu Chen's forehead twitched. He really didn't like this leopard. If he couldn't speak, he didn't have to say anything.
"I didn't cook? I've already prepared the snake meat for you, skewered it, and prepared all the seasonings. What else do you want? I have to roast them and feed them to you one by one?"
Wu Chen said unhappily.
"The food is delicious. Make more next time." Yi Yuan praised soothingly.
"Just tell me whether you were perfunctory or not?" Liu Xia couldn't help but add fuel to the fire.
Wu Chen nodded generously, "Yes, I did. I thought grilling it for you would be a waste of firewood and time. You should eat it raw. But I was afraid that Yanyan would scold me, so I reluctantly grilled it for you."
Sincerity is always a killer skill. Wu Chen's true feelings silenced all the males.
Qing Lan's face was filled with pain. "No, brother, can I just call you brother? How can I get over this? Can't we just have a meal and be harmonious? Why must we make it so bloody?"
"If you don't want to cook, I can do it, and I can do it all the time." Yi Yuan said sincerely.
"No, I just don't want to cook for you. I have no problem cooking for Yanyan." Wu Chen's expression became more sincere.
The mask of pain on Qinglan's face became even heavier.
Nan Xing gnawed on the long roasted snake meat, reluctant to cut it into pieces, and muttered softly, "I said he was destroying unity, right?"
Liu Xia said quietly, "You don't understand this, do you? Kunlun has dedicated cleaning and cooking staff. You don't have to do anything yourself. You can just be happy that you can eat skewers made by the high priest himself."
Wu Chen looked at Liu Xia and narrowed his eyes dangerously. "It's good enough that you know there is something, and you still accuse me of being perfunctory?"
Liuxia choked, the corners of her mouth twitching, and she looked at Qinglan with a questioning look, "Is this the only high priest of you land orcs?"
Qing Lan gave a polite yet awkward smile, "High Priest, please restore your aloof and sacred demeanor on the altar. It's really hard for me to see you like this."
Wu Chen swung his sleeves and spread his hands, "I was pretending. Now I'm not the high priest anymore, so I'm too lazy to pretend."
Jiang Yanyue almost fainted from laughing. Who could have imagined that beneath the cold and aloof appearance of an exiled immortal, resided a serious and funny soul!
Qinglan scratched his head and tried to connect the calm and crazy lunatic in front of him with the high priest who was shining with divine light and was sacred and steady on the altar five years ago, no, it should be six years ago.
Six years ago, when Wu Chen succeeded the high priest, a strange vision occurred. The sky was filled with golden light, representing the gods' recognition and love for him.
Not every high priest will experience a vision when he takes office. As a high priest recognized by the gods, Wu Chen actually has a very high status in the hearts of the orcs.
If they were in Kunlun, they would have to greet Wu Chen when they saw him.
"Isn't the high priest chosen by God? Can you just quit your job?"
Yi Yuan was puzzled. Sun City also had priests and great witches, and both of them needed strict screening and assessment. It was not that you could do it if you wanted to, and not do it if you didn't want to.
Wu Chen raised his eyebrows and said in a very simple tone, "The March Spring Festival is approaching, and I'm not even in Kunlun. How can I be the high priest?"
Wu Chen vowed, "Don't worry, the high priest will definitely be replaced this year. It will most likely be Gu Yue. He listens to the old man, so even if the old man throws it to him, he will do it."
"It only takes one person to go up to the platform. The important thing is the platform, not the high priest."
Wu Chen calmly revealed the shocking secret.
Nanxing rubbed his arms and looked around vigilantly.
Although he was born in a small tribe and had never seen a proper witch, his natural sensitivity allowed him to sense danger.
"I say, if we knew about this kind of thing, would there really be no danger?"
Qinglan came over and put her arm around Nanxing's shoulders, "Don't be afraid, we have a wanted criminal here."
Qing Lan nodded in Yi Yuan's direction, "Yi Yuan's bounty has increased again, to 500,000 beast pearls. Even if you don't catch him, as long as you provide reliable information, you can get 1,000 beast pearls."
"How about this, when my injuries heal, I'll pretend to be caught by you, and you take the beast beads, and then I'll run back on my own. How about that?"
Wu Chen's eyes lit up. "You can run a few more times, and we can catch you a few more times. There aren't many mineral deposits in the Central Continent, and there's only one spiritual treasure, but after so many years of accumulation, there must be millions!"
Yi Yuan's eyes lit up, "No, it's far more than that. Although spiritual treasures are scarce in our Central Continent, we do have Holy Springs!"
"Our bottle of holy spring water is only one-tenth of Yanyan's, and we sell it for 100 beast pearls. Otherwise, we wouldn't have so many beast pearls to exchange with Tianfu for weapons. Wars are fought for beast pearls. How can we fight without them?"
Liu Xia grinned, "It's really dark. Injuries serious enough to require holy spring water would require at least a bottle like Yanyan's. One tenth of it can't be cured at all, it can only give you a short break at best."
Jiang Yanyue took out a bottle of beast spirit liquid. A bottle was only 50ml. People with big mouths could drink it in one gulp. One tenth of it was 5ml. Jiang Yanyue was curious, could the technology of the beast world make such a small bottle?
"What if you end up in your brother's hands and he kills you?" Wu Chen and Yi Yuan seriously discussed the details of repeatedly withdrawing 500,000 yuan, and Nan Xing also asked serious questions.
Yi Yuan waved his hand, "That's absolutely impossible. It wouldn't take him more than a breath to strike the target. But back then, I was completely defenseless. He dragged me from the ground to the ground and kept talking to me for hours."
"And he looked like he hadn't finished what he was saying and was planning to lock me up and continue."
"Thirteen years have passed in a flash. He hasn't spoken for a few days about how hard it was to manage Sun City, how well he did, and about that Iris. That's why he couldn't bear to kill me."
Nan Xing curled his lips and said disdainfully, "He's really not someone who can do great things. Can't he just say it to your grave? Then he can say whatever he wants and talk as long as he wants."
Liu Xia patted Nan Xing's shoulder and said meaningfully: "Fortunately, you are not Brother Yi Yuan, otherwise Yi Yuan would have died long ago."
Nan Xing slapped Liu Xia's hand away, her baby face wrinkled, "No way, Yi Yuan is so old."
"Okay, little Tangyuan, don't be so modest." Jiang Yanyue jumped onto Nanxing's back, and Nanxing caught her steadily.
Nanxing's baby face was full of smiles. "I am my sister's little dumpling, sweet and always sticking to her."
"Let's find some small prey tomorrow, such as bullfrogs and bamboo rats," Jiang Yanyue suggested.
Eating snake meat today reminded Jiang Yanyue of bullfrogs. Males like to hunt large prey to show their strength. Small bullfrogs, frogs, bamboo rats, wild geese, and ducks are not popular. Jiang Yanyue has never seen a male from her family bring any back.
