Chapter 77 Superficially, he's just freeloading; secretly, he's making his selections.



Didn't someone say they weren't going to eat?

Xiao Yeyu looked at him as if he was afraid that he would snatch it from him, and quickly took it back.

"My partner grilled this for me, so I can eat it whenever I want."

After Qi Liyuan received the skewers, he looked at the fragrant grilled meat in his hand.

This was the first time a female had cooked for him.

In the past, all the females who expressed their feelings to him only greeted him.

Yet not one of them has ever taken any real action.

He put the roasted meat in his mouth and savored it carefully.

The moment the roasted meat entered his mouth, Snake Eyes was startled—there was no fishy smell of beast meat or blood!

It was a completely new kind of meaty flavor that he had never tasted before.

He took his first bite, and his teeth first felt the crispy outer layer, followed by a "crunch".

The heat and oil burst in your mouth instantly, the scalding meat juices mixed with the rich aroma of bay leaves and powder, violently sweeping over every taste bud.

The best cuts are the ones with a good balance of fat and lean meat, where the lean meat has a fibrous texture and a satisfying chewiness.

The aroma of meat filled his mouth, stimulating his salivary glands to secrete more saliva.

After finishing his meal, Qi Liyuan, with the lingering fragrance in his mouth, couldn't help but glance at the female beside him.

His eyes seemed to want more.

"Qi Liyuan's aversion value decreased by 1, and there are 66 points left to complete the mission."

Seeing him eating so intently, Xiao Yeyu couldn't help but click his tongue in delight.

Is it really that delicious?

Aren't they all meat from the same wild boar?

They really went to great lengths to show off.

He clicked his tongue.

But he unconsciously swallowed his saliva.

Ling Yunxi, who also noticed this, gave a soft hum.

That was a tenderloin she carefully selected, alternating with fat, and she even squeezed in some sour fruit juice, which evaporated when it was grilled, maximizing the original aroma of the meat.

Only the aroma of the roasted meat remains, without any fishy smell.

How could it not taste good?

Qi Liyuan recalled the barbecue he had just tasted and decided to try making some himself.

But it just feels like something's missing.

"Beast Master".

The orcs not far away saw the beastmaster suddenly appear and stood up to greet him.

"No need to get up, no need to get up, I'm just here to freeload a meal."

The beastmen sat back down.

"Beastmaster, come eat with us, we have roasted rabbit meat."

The orcs here extended a warm invitation.

"Beastmaster, we have venison here."

"Beastmaster, we have roast chicken!"

"..."

The beast masters were all sampling the food there.

As the beast master got closer and closer to her, Ling Yunxi appeared calm on the surface, but felt a little uneasy inside.

"Ling Yunxi".

Suddenly, the beastmaster's voice came from behind.

Ling Yunxi frowned slightly and paused in her work of grilling the meat.

What was bound to happen has finally happened.

“Beast Master…” She turned around and was about to get up.

"No need to get up, no need to get up," the beast master said slowly, kindly and apologetically, "I just saw that you have a lot of meat, you don't mind me..."

"Of course I don't mind, of course I wouldn't..."

Ling Yunxi thought the beast master had come to question her, and she was already prepared to be scolded.

I didn't expect that he was just there to freeload.

"Beast Master, this skewer is freshly grilled, have this one."

She handed him a skewer of grilled meat that she had just finished grilling.

"Well then, I won't stand on ceremony," the beastmaster said without hesitation.

Ling Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Beastmaster, you're so lazy. You called us out, but you didn't even provide us with lunch. You still have to come and freeload."

Xiao Yeyu sat to the side, showing no fear of the Beast Master, and said disdainfully.

Instead of scolding him, the beast master smiled and said, "Oh dear, I'm getting old. There's nothing I can do but rely on you young beasts to support me."

As the beast master spoke, he tasted the meat that Ling Yunxi had grilled for him.

The moment the grilled meat entered his mouth, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he continued eating without making a sound.

"Alright, for your sake, I'll take this one too. Don't be shy."

Xiao Yeyu handed the meat skewers he had grilled to the beast master.

"Hmph, at least you have a conscience."

After finishing the skewer that Ling Yunxi had grilled, the beast master wanted to eat more, so he took it without hesitation and ate it directly.

"My skewer is ready too."

Qi Liyuan also handed his string of beads to the beast master.

The beast master tried both skewers and said they were both good overall.

However, the taste is slightly different from the skewer that Ling Yunxi handed over earlier.

The beastmaster noticed the raw meat that had been marinated in advance and asked while eating, "Who prepared the seasonings for this meat?"

"Little Fatty is female."

Xiao Yeyu spoke first.

The beast master nodded slightly, and when his gaze shifted to Ling Yunxi's hand, she was dripping a few drops of sour fruit juice onto a new skewer of grilled meat.

He figured it out; that was the difference.

The beastmaster smiled without saying a word, finished eating, and continued towards the next group of orcs.

After Ling Yunxi finished dripping the sour juice, she continued to roast it in the fire.

Watching the beastmaster leave, she felt a complete sense of relief.

Although they are not afraid of being questioned, no one wants to be scolded for no reason.

Xiao Yeyu noticed her action when he added firewood to the fire.

"Little fat woman, do you think this sour juice of yours will taste good?"

Xiao Yeyu heard about it in class that morning and didn't believe at all that sour fruit could really make meat taste better.

The eagle tribe only eats fruits when they are fully ripe, otherwise they are too sour to eat.

"I think it tastes delicious," Ling Yunxi said while grilling.

She dared not make any boasts to these orcs who were accustomed to eating bloody meat.
