Chapter 1452 Scary New Year’s Eve Feast

Le Yin then placed various seeds, candies, fruits, and nuts in the living room, filling up an entire coffee table.

"Alright, the big clean-up is done, and the courtyard is set up. We won’t have lunch, so if anyone gets hungry, just have some candy. Now let’s start making the New Year’s Eve feast. Xiao Tao, read out the menu and tell us what needs to be done, so we can divide up the tasks."

Xiao Tao took out a piece of paper and read:

"The menu for the New Year’s Eve feast is:

1. Shiitake Pearl Chicken

2. Quanjude Roast Duck

3. Steamed Giant Salamander

4. Steamed Peach Blossom Pork

5. Ten-year Wild Boar’s Hand

6. Century-old Clam Meat

7. Thousand-year-old Dragon Liver and Stomach

8. Ten-thousand-year-old Turtle Soup

Altogether there are eight big bowls. What does everyone think?"

Among the crowd, except for Mengyu, everyone else was a bit confused: the first four dishes were still considered ordinary, but the last four, what’s going on?

Ten-year-old wild boar is barely acceptable, but a hundred-year-old clam, a thousand-year-old dragon, and ten-thousand-year-old turtle?

Was Xiao Tao deliberately joking around?

Even Mengyu stared at Xiao Tao: Are you sure you’re not stirring things up?

Xiao Tao said, "Uh, that ten-thousand-year-old Turtle Soup might be a bit of a misnomer. I said it like that for the sake of smoothness, the turtle I caught might not actually be ten-thousand-years-old."

Mengyu glared at Xiao Tao: "Is it only the ten-thousand-year-old Turtle Soup that’s misnamed?"

Are you sure you’re not trying to frighten these disciples and Hidden Guards?

"Uh, also the Dragon Liver, it’s not actually dragon, but a rather elderly Dragon Snake. I just said Dragon Liver to make it sound better."

Mengyu pulled Xiao Tao aside, gritting her teeth, "When did you go to the sea to kill a thousand-year Dragon Snake and ten-thousand-year-old turtle?"

Xiao Tao cautiously glanced at her master, seemingly, the master was a bit upset?

"Well, you said yesterday you left the New Year’s Eve feast to me, so I went to prepare it last night."

Upon hearing Xiao Tao say this, she was suddenly impressed by her.

Usually, seeing her gentle and weak, who could have thought she would actually go to the sea to get these things.

Mengyu rubbed her forehead, unexpected that entrusting the New Year’s feast to Xiao Tao would result in so many things.

"There are many spirit monsters in the sea, weren’t you afraid of being swallowed by some spirit monster?"

Xiao Tao, hearing her master was concerned about her, immediately shook her head, "No fear, no fear, as soon as they approach my body, I’ll emit peach blossom miasma, causing them to become unconscious. I can directly collect them."

Mengyu was pleasantly surprised, "When did you acquire this power, being able to kill without lifting a hand?"

"Uh, it’s after the master and the male master engaged in that event, that I acquired this ability."

Xiao Tao lowered her head, a bit fearfully glancing at Mengyu, could she say she has been encouraging Mengyu and Gu Dongxing to engage in Dual Cultivation to activate her ability?

"Your meaning is as soon as you release the peach blossom miasma, all those creatures flip over, allowing you to take them at your leisure?"

Xiao Tao nodded, "Yes, master, I brought back a lot of seafood."

Mengyu rubbed her forehead again, "Won’t killing so many creatures affect my Merit?"

Xiao Tao felt somewhat guilty, "I was careful, choosing those without spiritual intelligence, but it only consumed twenty Merit Points of yours."

It’s because that Turtle Spirit had some intelligence that twenty Merit Points were lost.

Mengyu nearly jumped up, "Twenty Points, only? That’s the Merit Points for saving two people. Do you think saving lives is easy?"

Who knew, Xiao Tao added, "But master, I also earned one thousand Merit Points."

Mengyu was shocked, "What, you earned one thousand Merit Points? How did you earn them?"

"The Dragon Snake I killed had overturned quite a few boats and eaten many sailors. By slaying it, how many people’s lives did I save in the sea, so I earned one thousand Merit Points."
