"Baa...baa..."
Upon seeing that familiar short sword again, Yu Niao finally went completely mad, struggling and screaming in terror.
"Pfft..."
Then, before Jun Feijue could make a move, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and bit his tongue, committing suicide.
Everyone: "..."
Jin Yue covered her face and turned away. Poor Yu Niao, in the end, was driven to suicide.
"Tsk, as a magical beast, this level of mental fortitude is a disgrace to magical beasts."
Chunhu Siqiong scoffed in disappointment, then looked at Jun Feijue and comforted him, "It's alright, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Next time, I'll leave one alive so you can make the first move."
"Mm." Jun Feijue nodded lightly.
Jin Yue: "..."
You can do it yourself, can you please not involve our young lady?!
She was filled with regret, deep regret. She shouldn't have been so quick-witted as to let her mistress save that wicked fox!
"Master, now that the medicine's effectiveness has been confirmed, and my barbecue is almost ready, let's go eat first."
They were so engrossed in the experiment that Ji Fanya's reminder made them immediately notice the rich fragrance.
They quickly ran to the campfire. The bird meat was roasted until it was golden brown and oozing oil, and the aroma of the meat filled the air, making everyone's mouths water and causing them to swallow hard.
"Master, this hind leg is for you."
Ji Fanya first cut off a plump hind leg and handed it to Jun Feijue, then cut off another one and handed it to Chunhu Siqiong, before cutting off the front leg for himself and Jinyue.
Everyone took the roasted meat, completely disregarding the fact that it was scalding hot, and immediately began to devour it.
The grilled meat was cooked to perfection, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sweet and juicy, and incredibly flavorful. Paired with brand-new spices, it created an intoxicating taste that was so delicious it made you want to explode on the spot.
"Awoooooo..."
Everyone ate like kittens guarding their food, whimpering softly, their mouths greasy, and not a single person spoke.
"It smells so good, I can't resist!"
Just then, an old man in a Taoist robe suddenly jumped down from a tree and quickly reached for the roasted meat by the campfire.
"Clang..."
However, before his hand could even touch the grilled meat, it was blocked by a small black pot.
Ji Fanyai hoisted the roasted meat onto his back, chewing on it as he mumbled, "Hey, you old man, what are you trying to do?"
"Little boy, give me the roast meat quickly, it smells so good, I've never seen such delicious roast meat before."
The old man wiped the drool from his mouth, took out a gold coin from his pocket and handed it over, "Can I buy it? One gold coin for half a roasted meat, is that enough?"
"ah?"
Upon seeing this, Jin Yue was stunned.
One gold coin is equal to one thousand silver coins, and he's only buying half a monster's meat. This old man is really generous.
The old man shared the same thought as Jin Yue: he believed that these were just children, easily swayed, and would agree without hesitation if they saw a gold coin.
"Not for sale!"
Unexpectedly, Ji Fanya refused without even thinking, swallowed the meat in his mouth, and said firmly, "This roast meat is for my master, I won't sell it."
"You...you little brat, why are you so stubborn...how about we switch to one of your front legs!"
The old man stared at the roasted meat with shining eyes, his face contorted with irritation as he stamped his feet. "For the sake of an old man like me, can't you at least show some respect for the elderly?"
“My master is only five years old, he’s still young.”
Ji Fanya looked at the old man with a strange expression and said, "You must love the young."
