"This is not a simple... cough, pig worm."
Bai Ze stepped forward, intending to use his divine power to explore the pig-worm, but the little divine power he possessed dissipated as soon as it was gathered.
With his lips pressed tightly together, secretly annoyed at his own incompetence, he could only step forward and lightly tap the pig-worm's head with his finger.
"Awoo!"
The newly hatched worm, which had just formed a bond with Sheng Ning, was very reluctant to come into contact with outsiders.
It arched its body and wriggled as it tried to climb into Sheng Ning's arms.
But as soon as it made a move, Sheng Ning shoved it directly into Bai Ze's hand.
"Awoo!"
"Does Lord Bai Ze know it? Is it also a spirit beast? Will it turn into a butterfly when it grows up?"
Faced with Sheng Ning's three consecutive questions, Bai Ze looked at the pig-like insect that kept wriggling in his palm.
"It has a tail, its face is different from a caterpillar, and it has two legs. Among the mythical beasts, only the dragons are similar to it."
"However, I have never seen a young dragon, so I cannot be sure whether it looks like a caterpillar or a young dragon..."
"But one thing is certain: its bloodline is not simple. It has developed intelligence as soon as it opened its eyes and can form a bond on its own. You... raise it a little longer, and you will know the answer when it grows up."
The worm is really too dark.
He had lived in Tianling Mountain for so many years and had met the dragons several times.
Which of those dragons wasn't majestic and awe-inspiring, looking down upon the world?
Unlike the one in his palm, which was chubby, soft, and dark, with two antenna-like things growing on its head.
They bear no resemblance whatsoever to the dragon race.
Bai Ze quickly returned the wriggling pig-like insect to Sheng Ning and fled back to his seat.
Upon hearing that her sworn brother might be a dragon, Sheng Ning smiled wryly, "Perhaps it really is just a rather powerful caterpillar."
Yu Ye, standing next to him, nodded in agreement, "It's a caterpillar. You see, although it has two legs, its appearance shows that it has absolutely no relation to the dragon race."
Guan Yunchuan agrees with Yu Ye's viewpoint.
"The dragon race has been extinct for more than 10,000 years. It is said that the appearance of the dragon race will bring either great disaster or peace. Junior sister is still too young to bear such a great responsibility. Just treat her as a caterpillar."
Although having a caterpillar around can give me the creeps, it still makes me feel uneasy.
Sheng Ning wasn't particularly interested in what the true nature of the pig-worm was.
She just hoped that her first time raising a hatchling wouldn't kill the baby worm.
Now she has cats, snakes, and even worms; she's practically a winner in life.
If it weren't for the familiar yet unsettling voices coming from outside the private room.
She would be even happier.
"What restaurant only has two private rooms? We, my fellow disciples, just escaped from the Demon Realm. Why can't we go upstairs to eat?"
The private rooms in the restaurant were not soundproof.
Therefore, any noise outside can be clearly heard inside the private room.
When Sheng Ning and the others heard that extremely arrogant statement, Xi Zhen's face immediately popped into their minds.
The senior and junior disciples looked up at each other and decided to lower their heads and pretend to be dead.
Pian Xizhen didn't want to leave so easily.
The waiter's advice came again from outside the door, followed by Xi Zhen's angry shout, "What do you mean they raised the price? Whatever they offered, I'll pay double!"
The waiter hadn't expected to have such a guest at the restaurant today.
With an embarrassed expression, the waiter apologized again, "Esteemed guests, they were the ones who arrived first. Our shop is small and our service has been inadequate. Please forgive us."
Before he could finish speaking, Xi Zhen shoved him aside.
"Go away, get out of here. What do you mean by first come, first served? My fellow disciples and I have important matters to discuss. It's an honor for you to use your restaurant's private room."
After saying that, he strode towards the first private room.
The private room where Sheng Ning and his group were located was the one closest to the stairs.
Just as Xi Zhen finished speaking, the door to the private room was rudely pushed open from the outside.
"How many spirit stones did you pay to book this private room? I'll pay double... Is it you?"
Before Xi Zhen could finish speaking, the door to the private room was pushed open, and he saw that the people sitting inside were none other than Sheng Ning and his group.
The moment the door to the private room was pushed open, Sheng Ning and the others had already turned their attention to the doorway.
Seeing Xi Zhen standing at the door looking disheveled, Sheng Ning grinned and waved at him, "Long time no see, Fellow Daoist Xi."
It has indeed been a long time since we last met.
Xi Zhen and the others followed Elder Qian into the Demon Realm to search for Shi Yueyao.
This trip lasted for more than half a month.
Only they themselves know the hardships they endured.
Xi Zhen and his group practically escaped the Demon Clan, only because there were too many demon cultivators in the Demon Clan, and the few Taixu Sect disciples were simply no match for so many people.
Fortunately, Shi Yueyao was rescued by them; otherwise, they would have been so angry they would have vomited blood.
Those demons are all monsters. They attacked them on sight, but instead of killing them, they... instead...
The thought of himself, a grown man, stripped naked and bound to the bed, with that hideous demonic cultivator on top of him, made Xi Zhen's face turn ashen.
His hands were clenched into fists, his knuckles cracking.
Xi Zhen gritted his teeth and said coldly, "We'll take the private room. You can find another restaurant."
At that time, Shi Yueyao and the others had already arrived at the door of the private room.
Seeing Sheng Ning and the others sitting in the private room, even Qin Chuan, who was as calm as he was, turned pale and then flushed.
