"Okay, we're all here, so let's take a seat." Huang Tian said with a smile, and lifted the lid of the boiler, and a stronger aroma hit him in the face.
“It smells so good.”
“Just by smelling this aroma, I know it will be delicious.”
“The craftsmanship is really good.”
Hearing the praise from the three people, Liu Erlong's smile became even brighter, and she said, "Please sit down."
After the three women took their seats, Huang Tian took out a barrel of wine and used his divine power to create five goblets. He filled each goblet halfway with wine and distributed them to the four women, saying, "Come, let's enjoy our meal and drinks tonight. Come, everyone, have a drink. This is the first time the five of us have gathered together for a meal, and it's also a celebration for us settling down here."
"cheers."
After the five of them clinked their glasses together, they raised their heads and drank the wine in their hands. Huang Tian poured wine for them and said, "Don't just stand there, eat. If you want to eat vegetables, you can put them in to blanch them." He picked up the chopsticks, reached into the pot, picked up a piece of meat, dipped it in the chili sauce a few times, put it in the small bowl in his left hand, lowered his head and began to eat.
Liu Erlong, Tang Yuehua and Bibi Dong, who had never eaten hotpot before, followed suit. They picked up their chopsticks, picked up the meat from the pot, dipped it in chili sauce, and took a bite. The spicy taste immediately stimulated their taste buds, and the three women cried because of the spiciness.
Seeing their embarrassed expressions, Qian Renxue burst into laughter and said, "Yesterday was my first time eating it. I didn't realize how spicy this chili sauce was, and my husband didn't tell me at the time. But after taking a bite, I felt like I was about to spit fire."
Bibi Dong swallowed the meat with difficulty and quickly took a sip of wine to suppress the spicy taste. She glared at Qian Renxue fiercely and said, "Xue'er, you've learned bad habits now. You didn't even tell us in advance. You wanted to see us make a fool of ourselves, right?"
"No, mother, how could I have learned bad things? My husband didn't even warn you, how could I dare to do that!" Qian Renxue's eyes turned, and she betrayed Huang Tian directly, pushing him out to block the bullet.
"Hmph!" The three women immediately turned their gaze to Huang Tian and groaned, expressing their dissatisfaction.
Huang Tian, who was watching the show, was shocked. "You're such a jerk, Qian Renxue! You actually sold me out!" He quickly said, "Chili peppers have a certain pungent taste. You didn't even smell them before trying to imitate me. You deserve the spiciness. But you've all been through body remodeling, so this little bit of spiciness won't be a problem. You should be used to it by now. You can keep eating it. It's delicious and appetizing."
Bibi Dong also felt that the spicy taste in her mouth had disappeared a lot. She took another bite of the meat and after chewing, she found that the spicy taste had faded a lot. The meat was indeed delicious. Then she nodded and said, "Well, my husband is right. It is indeed delicious."
Hearing what Bibi Dong said, Tang Yuehua and Liu Erlong took a bite of the meat on the chopsticks with half-belief and half-doubt. After chewing it, they found that it was indeed not very spicy, and the taste of the meat and the spiciness of the chili pepper were mixed together. It tasted better than eating meat alone, so they lowered their heads and started eating it in big mouthfuls.
Qian Renxue saw that the three of them were eating with great relish and there was nothing else to watch, so she picked up the chopsticks, reached into the pot to pick up the meat, dipped it in the chili sauce a few times, and lowered her head to eat.
Time passed as everyone toasted each other. After more than an hour, the five of them finished a pot of more than 20 kilograms of meat and more than 10 kilograms of vegetables. Huang Tian snapped his fingers with his right hand, and the charcoal in the iron stove instantly went out and turned into a pile of dust. The temperature of the boiler, which was originally steaming hot, also dropped rapidly.
With the second snap of his fingers, the dirty dishes, pots, plates, and dipping saucers on the table were all sucked into his black hole space, shattered and decomposed, and disappeared forever.
He used his divine power to create five lounge chairs, and with a wave of his hand, he moved them outside the pavilion. He stood up, walked over, and lay down on the middle lounge chair. He smiled and said, "Would you like to lie down and look at the stars for a while?"
"I'll come too." Qian Renxue hurriedly stood up, ran to a recliner, lay down, and rocked comfortably.
Liu Erlong had seen and laid on this kind of recliner before, so she walked over and lay down on a recliner next to Huang Tian. Seeing how the three of them were enjoying themselves, Tang Yuehua and Bibi Dong also walked over curiously, lay down on a recliner respectively, and imitated them, swaying back and forth, enjoying themselves immensely.
"What a beautiful starry sky! I haven't seen it for a long time. I remember when I was a child, I would look at the starry sky every night, counting the stars and falling asleep unknowingly. After growing up, I seldom look up and count the stars, for fear of being called childish. Alas, childhood is better, carefree." Tang Yuehua said with emotion. After drinking some wine, she said out some words buried in her heart.
"Yes, my childhood was carefree and free. The older I grew, the more I understood, but also the more constraints I had. I practiced hard for three meals a day and for my own safety, fearing that I wouldn't be strong enough to control my own destiny. Now, I've become a god, and I have enough power and a long life. I don't have to worry about my lifespan anymore. I have to thank my husband for this." Liu Erlong said with a smile, looking at Huang Tian.
Huang Tian smiled and said, "Why should you thank me? You should thank yourself. You are talented and have practiced hard. The Heavenly Dao also recognizes you and has allowed you to be on the list twice. It is only a matter of time before you become a god. I simply accelerated the time for you to become a god."
Liu Erlong shook her head and said, "My husband, you're joking. Without your help, it would take me at least twenty years to cultivate into a god."
Bibi Dong said coldly: "Okay, all of us here have improved our strength with the help of our husbands. You are not the only one left, so stop flattering each other. Just look at the starry sky carefully. If you don't want to, just keep quiet." She had been practicing throughout her childhood, but unlike these two people, she could not watch the stars with her relatives every night. She didn't even have relatives. She was raised by the Spirit Hall, and the only thing she knew was to practice, practice, and practice.
Qian Renxue was even more afraid to say anything when she saw her mother lose her temper. Her childhood was actually similar to Bibi Dong's. She practiced all the time. Her grandfather only cared about her and inquired about her progress in practice. Even looking at the stars at night was a luxury. But it didn't matter now. She had become a god and was very powerful. No one could force her to do anything anymore.
Huang Tian smiled and said nothing, then continued to look up at the stars in the sky. He had been to the boundary membrane. These stars were not the planets he knew on Earth in his previous life. They did not exist in reality at all. They were just projections of stars from other worlds. They had always been deceiving the senses of people in this world. Without a certain level of strength, they would not know that the stars they saw were illusions.
The group just lay there looking at the stars. An hour passed without anyone saying a word. Everyone was thinking and deducing the deeper technology of space soul guides in their minds, so they had no time to chat.
Huang Tian suddenly stood up and said, "It's time to go back to bed. The house in the north is Xue'er's, and you can divide the houses in the remaining three directions among yourselves."
"I want the one on the east side." Liu Erlong stood up and said.
"I want the west one." Tang Yuehua said.
"Then I want the one from the south," Bibi Dong said.
"Okay, got it. I'll sleep in Dong'er's room tonight. We'll take turns." Huang Tian stretched, pulled Bibi Dong up from the recliner, and headed towards the house in the south.
