Chapter 1051 - 1037: Warm Feelings

Only then did Duan Sangheng carefully walk inside.

Once he entered, he found that the Spiritual Energy in the entire courtyard was very rich; just taking a breath made one feel extremely comfortable.

As expected, Young Master Yue’s wife and the people around him were all very powerful.

Or rather, none of them were Mortal Beastmen.

He even smelled a rich aroma of food; it was simply too delicious.

Even the best restaurant in the city didn’t have such a fragrance.

"Gululu..."

Duan Sangheng’s stomach let out a loud growl; the sound was really quite embarrassing.

"S-sorry..."

He had been too busy catching Demon Beasts recently and hadn’t had time to eat. He had just finished interrogating that Demon Beast and hurried over, so he truly hadn’t eaten.

He himself hadn’t noticed that he was hungry.

He never expected that as soon as he came over and smelled the aroma, his stomach would growl at once.

Su Muyao and the others were almost done eating. She spoke up, "City Lord Duan Sang, sit down and eat with us."

Since Yue Wuhen was willing to help him, it meant he wasn’t a problem.

"N-no, how could I dare."

He really hadn’t come here to freeload a meal.

The ingredients in Su Muyao’s space were extremely plentiful, so she felt there was no need to be so stingy.

"Since City Lord Duan Sang knows my Beast Husband, there’s no need to refuse. Sit down and eat."

"Just so happens I also have some things I want to ask City Lord Duan Sang."

Only then did City Lord Duan Sang stop declining and sit down on a chair at the table.

Since they were going to talk, they naturally couldn’t let others know.

Di Fu Yuan moved his fingers, and a strand of Power closed the door.

Teng Lixuan handed a pair of chopsticks to City Lord Duan Sang.

Su Muyao and the others had already eaten and, seeing that Duan Sangheng hadn’t started yet, she said, "City Lord Duan Sang, no need to stand on ceremony, eat as you like."

"We made quite a lot of dishes, so eat more."

"We can talk after the meal."

City Lord Duan Sang was so moved he didn’t know what to say.

"Many thanks, Miss Su."

Only then did he pick up his chopsticks.

He carefully picked up a piece of meat from a dish in front of him; it looked like bird-beast meat.

Normally, they didn’t really like to eat bird-beast meat; bird-beast meat wasn’t as tasty as some wild beast meat.

But just the smell of this bird-beast meat made him feel it would be extremely delicious.

He put it into his mouth and took a bite, only then realizing how delicious it was.

He was completely stunned, then ate another piece, nearly moved to tears. "Wuu wuu, it’s too good."

"I’ve never eaten food this delicious in my life."

"Is this bird-beast meat? It’s too tasty."

Su Muyao was stunned at the sight of this man looking like he was about to cry.

In outsiders’ eyes, this awe-inspiring Piaomiao City Lord—did he really want to cry just from eating a meal?

In truth, Su Muyao didn’t realize just how delicious the food she made was.

The people around her were used to this flavor, so it was nothing special to them.

But other Beastmen had never tasted anything like this, so once they did, they found it unbelievably amazing.

Su Muyao explained, "Yes, this is bird-beast meat. There are other dishes here as well; City Lord Duan Sang, try them."

After eating for a while, Su Muyao was nearly full.

In any case, they had made a lot of dishes, a whole large table full; everyone could eat their fill.

"And this is a flatbread. City Lord Duan Sang, try this too."

City Lord Duan Sang felt a bit embarrassed, his face slightly red.

He felt it wasn’t very proper to eat so much, but this food was just too delicious.

After eating, his whole body felt especially comfortable and warm.

After eating the flatbread, City Lord Duan Sang was even more astonished.

"There’s something this tasty as well."

"I’ve never even heard of it, let alone eaten it."

Nowadays, pollution on the Fusang Continent was severe, polluted Mutated Beasts were numerous, and food resources were tight; he truly had never seen such gourmet food.

He had never even had a chance to eat it.

As for the meat dishes, although the taste was different, he knew what those foods were and had eaten them before.

It was just that Miss Su’s cooking made them far more delicious.

But this flatbread, he had never seen it, never eaten it, and didn’t even know what it was made from.

After a few bites, he found it incredibly delicious and was so excited that his chest and eyes felt hot.

He couldn’t hold back and blurted it out.

After asking, he realized something was off and quickly said, "I’m sorry, Miss Su, I... I got too excited just now."

Su Muyao said, "It’s fine."

"This is made from a food called small wheat."

Su Muyao knew the Piaomiao City Lord was a good man; that was why there were no fights in all of Piaomiao City, and the Beastmen could live their lives normally.

He had provided safety and protection for the Beastmen in Piaomiao City.

Su Muyao knew she had a mission to save the world, so she wasn’t stingy about saying these things.

If having more food could help the Beastmen of the Fusang Continent, she was naturally willing to talk about it.

Previously, she hadn’t had the time; she’d been busy with many things.

Now that the Piaomiao City Lord happened to be here and had asked, she took the chance to explain.

"Small wheat—what kind of thing is that?"

Su Muyao took out an ear of wheat from her space; this was grown in the Space Field.

"It’s this kind of food."

Duan Sangheng’s expression froze. "Th-this is actually food?"

"I thought it was just grass. On the far west side of Piaomiao City there’s a mountain called Piaomiao Mountain; at the foot of that mountain there’s a lot of this stuff."

So it was food—that was simply too exciting.

Su Muyao’s eyes lit up; she hadn’t expected there to be small wheat here.

"If that’s the case, that’s wonderful."

Su Muyao briefly explained how to harvest small wheat, how to get the wheat grains, and how to grind flour and make food from it.

Duan Sangheng carefully memorized it all.

His expression was incomparably solemn.

This was an extremely important matter.

He stood up and directly knelt down. "Thank you, Miss Su, for telling me all this. In this way, we’ll be able to save all the Beastmen in Piaomiao City."

Su Muyao hadn’t expected that while she was talking, Duan Sangheng would suddenly kneel.

"Get up, there’s no need for this."

The system spoke up, "Host, if the Twelve Beast Gods appear and the Beast God Power of the Twelve Beast Gods condenses together, Mei Qingchen’s Purification Power will cover the entire Beast World Continent."

At present, the Beast God Power still hadn’t completely covered the Fusang Continent.

So the pollution on the Fusang Continent still remained.

"Get up first. City Lord Duan Sang, tell me about Wuheng. How did he help you?"

Su Muyao wanted to know where Yue Wuhen had gone.

At the mention of Yue Wuhen, Duan Sangheng’s eyes were filled with gratitude. "There was once an upheaval in Piaomiao City. Many Beastmen were attacked and died for no reason. No matter how we investigated, we couldn’t find the problem. Even the City Guards on patrol would inexplicably die. Their wounds were claw marks, likely from an extremely special kind of claw."

"I ransacked the Ancient Books but couldn’t find any record of such Beastmen."

"At that time, the entire Piaomiao City was in chaos."

"Countless Beastmen were killed or injured, and because I kept investigating this matter, I was even threatened and warned."

"In the middle of the night, someone shot a message into my room with a throwing dart."

"But since I am the Piaomiao City Lord, I naturally wouldn’t allow others to destroy Piaomiao City."

"Yet a Demon Beast broke into the City Lord Mansion in the middle of the night. At that dangerous moment, it was Young Master Yue who appeared and saved me. Young Master Yue is my benefactor; this life of mine belongs to him."

"I wanted to repay his kindness, but Young Master Yue didn’t need any repayment from me and instead used witch power to force that Demon Beast, who was disguised as a Beastman, to reveal its true form."

"Later I remembered there was a Magic Artifact passed down from my ancestors, though it was broken—the Demon Identification Stone. It was Young Master Yue who helped me repair it."

When he spoke of Yue Wuhen, Duan Sangheng was full of respect and gratitude.
