Chapter 589 - 272: One Bowl of Mushroom Soup to Ease Your Worries (Part 3)

"Perhaps." Li Junyue nodded, "Director Liu knows more about these things."

As they chatted, occasionally a comatose Fungal Pet Beast would gradually wake up. Before they could grasp the situation, they were drawn to the rich aroma of mushrooms, leading them to the mushroom soup in a trance-like state.

Chen Yuan stirred the mushroom soup with a ladle, releasing the hidden aroma beneath the surface, making everyone’s fingers itch with desire.

"Want to eat?"

Looking at the Fungal Pet Beasts in front of him, Chen Yuan smiled slightly.

Whether poisonous or non-poisonous, after a bout of chaotic fighting and being collectively beaten up by the little ones, the Fungal Pet Beasts were at a low point, longing only for delicious mushrooms and a bowl of sweet mushroom soup.

As a result, the previously tense atmosphere completely dissipated, and all the Fungal Pet Beasts sat meekly together, waiting for Chen Yuan to feed them.

The remaining Fungal Pet Beasts gradually awoke. Once they understood the situation, they didn’t attack Chen Yuan and the others but instead queued up obediently.

Seeing this scene, Chen Yuan smiled helplessly, "Should’ve brought a big pot."

Nobody expected this to happen. In their original plan, only the four of them and the little ones would eat the mushrooms, but they didn’t expect...

Jiang Wenning’s eyes flashed with doubt, "Isn’t it awkward for these guys to eat the mushrooms that fell off themselves?"

"Sometimes, chickens eat eggs." Li Junyue said softly.

Jiang Wenning was momentarily speechless.

"Roar!"

Just when Chen Yuan was busy feeding them, a deep roar thundered in their ears, stunning everyone present, humans and Pet Beasts alike.

Boom!

The next moment,

The Abyssal Giant Mushroom, which had been lying down asleep, suddenly got up, its decaying amber eyes bursting with brilliance, and its sturdy limbs exploded with speed surpassing Cola.

In the blink of an eye, its massive body was already upon them, and the sweeping gust almost snuffed out the campfire.

Everyone instinctively retreated, while the Fungal Pet Beasts let out excited cries, "Mushroom mushroom mushroom!"

King, King!

"Awooo!"

Seeing the Abyssal Giant Mushroom’s reaction, Cola tensed its body, the wind swirling around it, its imposing aura radiating readiness for battle.

But in the Abyssal Giant Mushroom’s eyes, Cola didn’t exist at all. It stared fixatedly at the mushroom soup, the lingering aroma made it open its giant mouth wide, and uncontrollably, an unknown liquid dripped to the ground.

The next instant, the Abyssal Giant Mushroom’s giant mouth unleashed a strong suction, gulping down the entire pot of mushroom soup, pot and all.

Chen Yuan was first stunned, then shouted, "If you’re drinking the soup, just drink it, why swallow the pot too?"

Cola was furious, barking repeatedly, "Awoo awoo awoo!"

Give me back my mushrooms!

Having consumed a full pot of mushrooms, the Abyssal Giant Mushroom’s eyes curved, its giant mouth lifted into a smile, bouncing lightly in place, "Roar roar roar!"

Not enough not enough still not enough!

I want more!

The Abyssal Giant Mushroom’s sudden reaction was so out of character that it made Chen Yuan feel uncomfortable, like a burly man with chest hair pouting cutely—hard to look at.

But once he snapped back, he spread his hands toward the Abyssal Giant Mushroom, "You’ve swallowed the pot, what do I cook with?"

After saying this, Chen Yuan couldn’t help but mutter to himself, "What is this guy’s body made of, that it can swallow an iron pot?"

"Roar..."

Hearing this, the Abyssal Giant Mushroom froze in place, then lowered its head like a child admitting a mistake.

Matched with its fierce and terrifying appearance and size, it seemed to be saying: If you don’t accept my apology, I’ll beat you up.

"Actually, there’s another pot." Li Junyue suddenly spoke, pulling out a pot from his bulging backpack, his tone as calm as ever, "I was worried about unexpected situations, so I brought two pots."

"But this pot is quite a bit smaller."

Jiang Wenning gave a thumbs up, "Watermelon, from now on, you shall be called Li Kaopu."

Placing the pot in front of him, Chen Yuan looked at the Abyssal Giant Mushroom staring at him eagerly, coughed lightly, and spoke leisurely, "Before that, I have a very troublesome matter."

"Roar?"

The Abyssal Giant Mushroom tilted its head.

Chen Yuan pointed to the Twin Flower Concubine on his shoulder, "This little one really enjoys Poison Skills, but it doesn’t have a teacher to instruct it, so its progress is slow."

He paused, sighing heavily, "If only it had a teacher to guide it."

"Roar!"

The Abyssal Giant Mushroom gently stomped the ground, its large eyes looking at the Twin Flower Concubine.

I’ll teach you!
