Chapter 342: I Am Sorry, I Did Not Know My Meat Is so Tasty

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

‘There’s a way!’

Ao Cheng and Ao Yun felt their hearts racing. They looked overjoyed. They automatically ignored whatever Li Nianfan had to say next.

‘The expert says there’s a way, which means it’s going to be good. How could he be unsure if it’d work or not? He’s being too humble.’

Ao Cheng gulped. He nervously asked, “May I know what you had in mind, Mr. Li?”

“The method...is a bit, um, weird.”

Li Nianfan hesitated. He had thought of the idea all of a sudden. It had nothing to do with medical methods and it was very weird. He already regretted speaking about it.

“Mr. Li, just say it, it’s alright. I’ll go along with it as best as I can!” Ao Yun immediately had the desire to live again. He saw hope, even his eyes were beaming.

Li Nianfan was silent for a moment. He could only say, “Actually, my method is...to grill it!”

“Grill?” Everyone was taken aback. They had weird expressions on their faces.

Ao Yun was baffled. ‘Perhaps the expert thinks I’ll die for sure. Is he going to roast and eat me after I die?’

“Mr. Li, this...grilling seems inappropriate.”

Ao Cheng fell into deep thought. He quickly formed his sentence and then ripped Ao Yun’s clothes open. With his chest exposed, they saw a bump between his heart and the abdomen. The bump was slightly pulsating as if it was breathing.

Ao Cheng analyzed and said, “The demonic bug’s leeching around here. It’s controlling the heart and the abdomen area. Plus, it’s violent in nature. It’s currently stuck here, but if it senses any movement, it’ll attack like crazy and swallow the heart whole along with his powers!”

The body of an Immortal was strong and powerful. They could survive even if half of their bodies were disabled. Usually, they could easily slice their bodies open to retrieve a bug. However, the method was not useful on the Dragon Killer Poison Bug.

The bug would allow an Immortal to live for a while if they did not do anything about it. However, if one tried to attack it, it would easily kill the host in an instant. Even a Dragon was not an exception.

“Of course, I know it’s not that simple. I’m not too knowledgeable about this situation either, but I’m just offering a hypothesis.”

Li Nianfan shook his head and continued, “This bug’s a pain to deal with because of its leeching area. It leeches at the most delicious part of the body. If we can create a more delicious area, will it be lured over to that area?”

‘This...’

Everyone fell into deep thought. ‘Why does it sound like...it could actually work?!’

Ao Yun said, “Then, Mr. Li, the grill you speak of is...”

Li Nianfan replied, “What I meant was... Choose a body part and I’ll grill it into something delicious. Thus, the demonic bug will probably be attracted to the smell and hopefully, it’ll swim over to eat the meat.”

Daji finished his sentence, “Then, we’ll cut it off cleanly along with the bug!”

“This...this...”

Ao Cheng and Ao Yun’s eyes were wide. They were shocked by the odd idea.

‘You can do that?!’

It was slightly ridiculous but it also seemed to be a sensible method.

‘The expert’s truly an expert. He can even think of such weird ideas.’

Ao Cheng licked his lips and said, “Mr. Li, I’m afraid only you can execute a method like that.”

The Dragon Killer Poison Bug was too difficult to deal with. Once it leeched onto a host, it would be restless until the host died. Nothing could make it move an inch.

Absolute temptation was required to attract the Dragon Killer Poison Bug. They had tried the delicacies made by Li Nianfan and knew that his cooking was one-of-a-kind. If it could make them lose control, it might be able to tempt the Dragon Killer Poison Bug.

“Probably.” Li Nianfan looked at Ao Yun and said, “This is just a theory. As for execution, it’s all up to your will.”

Ao Yun bit down and said, “I’ll die either way. I trust you, Mr. Li!”

Sizzle!

At the side, the Fire Phoenix quickly cast a spell as soon as he said it. Red hot flames appeared out of thin air.

The Fire Phoenix said in an indifferent yet slightly merry voice, “Pick a body part. Grill it nicely.”

Ao Yun looked at the Fire Phoenix with anger and sadness on his face. ‘This vigilante. This is an act of public revenge for a private grudge.’

The Fire Phoenix smirked, “What are you looking at? Remember to pick a good part. If the meat isn’t good enough, the demonic bug might not be tempted. If you can’t tempt it, you might have to choose another body part to grill.”

The Dragons and the Phoenixes had a grudge-filled history since the beginning of time. Although it was washed away by the passage of time, it was still a very enjoyable experience to taunt each other.

By the side, Ao Cheng suggested, “Brother Ao Yun, how about the tail? I think tail meat’s the most tender part of the body. It must be delicious.”

Ao Yun was pissed. “Shut up! We’ll have to chop it off in the end. If my tail’s cut off, would I still be a...carp?”

He hesitated for a while then put out his arm. He rolled up his sleeve and said, “Come on!

“It’s just an arm. I can grow it back after a few thousand years.”

“Nice and tough!” Li Nianfan complemented. “Guan Yu once scraped his bones to remove the toxins. Now, we have Ao Yun grilling his arm to remove a bug. What a legendary story! Please, put your arm over the fire.”

Ao Yun looked at the Phoenix fire that was burning in front of him. He flinched.

‘Never in my dreams have I once thought that one day I’d willingly grill my arm with Phoenix Fire. What a shame, I’m a shame to the Dragon kind!’

He teared up and put his arm over the fire. He jumped.

Li Nianfan had already taken out his barbeque seasoning. He looked serious.

He had a small brush in his hand. He dipped it in oil and brushed it on his arm. “Quick, turn your arm. Make sure the meat’s evenly grilled.

“Don’t use force. Relax. Yes, loosen your grip. Ensure the texture of the meat’s good.

“Your powers. Transfer your powers to your arm and into the meat. The demonic bug might be more tempted.”

Li Nianfan focused on grilling while teaching Ao Yun the techniques of how to cook himself more deliciously.

Gradually, Ao Yun had a red arm.

Sizzle—

Oil started to seep out, covering his arm. It was glistening. Meanwhile, oil started to drip into the fire, causing a nice sizzle.

Gulp.

“Brother Ao Cheng, you seem to be gulping.”

“Nonsense, it’s not me. I’d never!” Ao Cheng protested loudly with a straight face but the saliva at the corner of his mouth kept dripping out.

Gulp!

Gulp!

Gulp!

There were a lot of gulps. Everyone looked calm and innocent but their gulps exposed them.

Aside from everyone in the room, the clam demons outside of the room were also acting weird. They started to peek inside with saliva dripping from their mouths.

“You! You all...”

Ao Yun was flushed from anger and embarrassment. He hid his head inside his shirt as if he were an ostrich. He was too shameful.

Then, he started to gulp like crazy, too. He had too much saliva in his mouth so the gulping sounds were pretty obvious.

Ao Cheng had to say, “Brother Ao Yun, stop hiding. We heard it. It’s your arm anyway. You can eat it if you want to.”

Ao Yun was still hiding like an ostrich. He said weakly, “Excuse me, I didn’t expect my meat to smell so good. Boohoo, I’m too embarrassed to live...”

“The meat’s almost done.” His meat did smell good, even Li Nianfan did not expect that. ‘Carp Demon meat smells this good?’

“Add some cumin. Perfect,” he said while sprinkling a layer of cumin on the meat like a pro.

Fume!

Instantly, the aroma of the meat was heightened like a tsunami, covering everyone and everything.

The entire palace was an ocean of aroma. Endless sea creatures came over because of the delicious smell. They surrounded and crowded the place.

Ao Cheng was trying his best to stop Dragin. He yelled, “Dragin, calm down, calm down! That is your Uncle Ao Yun, you can’t eat him!”

Daji was also pulling on Dragin who had stars in her eyes.

“Boohoo, Sister Daji, just one bite, just let me have one bite!”

Nanan had waterfall-like saliva dripping from her mouth. She was hungry. “Brother Nianfan, we can’t keep it since it’s cooked. How about we cut it and share it?”

Ao Cheng noticed that a lot of sea creatures were appearing. He did not look happy at all. He scolded, “What are you all doing? Hurry up and scram! Are you all trying to commit treason just for food?!”

The Dragon Killer Poison Bug moved slightly. It jolted and started to breathe heavily.

Then, it squiggled and started to move toward the arm.

It was careful at first, but then it was lured away by the delicious smell. It had one word in its mind, ‘eat’. It started to sprint toward the arm at high speed!
