"He is my friend and has no ill intentions."
Lu Wu tilted her head and bumped it against Huo Huo's.
He casually handed a bowl of ice jelly to Qin Zhan.
"Brown sugar watermelon shaved ice, have a taste."
Faced with Lu Wu's enthusiastic recommendation and under Huo Huo's clear gaze, Qin Zhan, who didn't particularly like sweets, took the spoonful and put it in his mouth.
This thing looks very ordinary.
Qin Zhan's attention was entirely on Huo Huo.
This entirely red bird was very different from the flamingo; it seemed significantly more dangerous to him.
When the mind is thinking, the teeth instinctively begin to chew.
When the smooth and refreshing ice jelly stimulated the taste buds, it successfully captured Qin Zhan's attention.
Glug!
He swallowed a spoonful of ice jelly with a gurgling sound.
Qin Zhan looked at what he was holding with disbelief, and then his gaze toward Lu Wu became quite different.
"How about it?"
Lu Wu asked with a smile.
Even a simple bowl of ice jelly, when the system intervenes, is enough to cause a small shock to the cultivators of the Qingyuan Realm.
"great."
Qin Zhan ate another spoonful, this time very slowly.
The cool and smooth ice jelly is moistened with brown sugar water, making it sweet but not overly sweet.
The crisp, sweet watermelon adds more layers of flavor to this bowl of ice jelly and helps to balance the thickness of the brown sugar.
What surprised Qin Zhan even more was that as he ate the bowl of ice jelly, the fire toxin in his body was removed.
This ice jelly is a natural counter to the Fiery Secret Realm.
You can tell if someone is good or bad just by looking at their actions.
Qin Zhan found eating with a spoon unsatisfying, so he simply picked up the bowl and began to gulp it down.
Slurp!
Qin Zhan finished off a large bowl of ice jelly in the blink of an eye.
"Cool!"
Qin Zhan felt a surge of heroic spirit.
At that moment, his soul was elevated.
Feeling completely refreshed, the circulation of spiritual energy accelerated significantly, resulting in a slight improvement in cultivation level.
"Boss Lu, another bowl, please!"
Qin Zhan, engrossed in eating, overlooked the presence of the Firebird.
"Chirp!"
Something landed on Qin Zhan's head.
Seeing the spectacular sight of molten rock crystals falling from the sky, Qin Zhan eagerly reached out and touched the top of his head, only to find an ordinary rock.
Um……
It's not ordinary either.
There was some dried bird droppings on the stone.
The peculiar smell of feces made Qin Zhan, with his keen sense of smell, quickly let go.
Qin Zhan's lips twitched when he saw the white spot on his palm.
What's wrong with treating people differently?
"Huo Huo told you to line up; they arrived first."
Lu Wu pointed to the fiery sparrows in front of the stall and reminded them.
"OK."
Qin Zhan got angry and lashed out.
He walked dejectedly to the back, looked at the fiery sparrows in front of him that seemed like he could crush them with a single step, shifted his feet, and stood a little further away.
One of the biggest illusions in life is that he can turn the tables.
In reality, rushing in would just be suicide.
The flock of birds advanced slowly. After the birds had enjoyed the ice jelly, Huo Huo stood in the middle of the flock, chirping away. The birds responded with great enthusiasm, stretching their necks out in response.
Then, the flock of birds scattered and flew in all directions.
Qin Zhan watched the flock of birds gradually disappear from sight, then looked at Lu Wu, who was rubbing Huo Huo's feathers, and hesitated.
He wasn't very proficient in animal language, but he could barely make out some of the meaning.
That special little bird seems to be guiding the Firebird clan to find humans in a secret realm.
Why look for humans?
Are you going to grill them?
Qin Zhan, who had fallen from a once-great hero to a life of subservience, silently fell silent.
Better to die for your fellow Daoist than for me.
He believed that the cultivators who entered the secret realm had long been prepared to die.
He will pray for them.
"I want five servings of ice jelly."
Qin Zhan, who was helping Lu Wu complete some of her task targets, squatted on the ground eating ice jelly.
Ever since he entered the secret realm yesterday, he had been on tenterhooks, afraid that something might happen to Lu Wu, and also afraid that he might be tricked by some beings in the secret realm. He had no time to take care of his appetite.
Now that it's safe, Qin Zhan ate heartily.
His favorite is peach-flavored ice jelly. The sweet peach juice combined with the smooth ice jelly in his mouth creates a delightful peach aroma with every breath.
Qin Zhan found the Earth Core Fruit Ice Jelly the most unacceptable.
The flesh of the groundnut is very hard and chewy.
Although the ice jelly itself is delicious, you have to grind your teeth for a long time before you can crush the jelly and swallow it.
However, he noticed that the flock of Firebirds had mostly been eating Earth Core Fruit Jelly, a delicacy that was indeed more suited to the Firebirds' merciless iron beaks.
After taking care of his own mouth, Qin Zhan felt like he had been given a second chance at life.
Despite the still harsh surroundings, the lingering coolness in his body revitalized Qin Zhan.
"Mr. Lu, is there anything I can help you with?"
Qin Zhan moved closer, actually wanting to observe Huo Huo up close.
This bird is unusual; he couldn't even tell what kind it was.
"Then could you please peel these fruits for me?"
Food spoils easily in high temperatures, so Lu Wu gave all the fruit he prepared after opening his stall today to the Fireflies.
It's already the second day, and Lu Wu thinks that by now some human cultivators should have found this place.
Lu Wu's goal was to get every cultivator who came here to buy a bowl of ice jelly.
Her ice jelly is of the highest quality, and everyone who has tried it raves about it.
"No trouble at all, I'd be happy to help."
Qin Zhan made a hand seal and used his magic to peel the fruit, his eyes constantly glancing at Huo Huo.
However, Huo Huo completely ignored Qin Zhan.
Birds won't even glance at humans they don't like.
