玩丰满高大邻居人妻

Chapter 458 - Appearance

Actually, everyone\'s attention was on the delicious scent of beef, and they crowded around the entrance to the kitchen of the Bai Family Estate.

“Are we really going to eat beef? This is treason. I’m scared...”[1]

“Yeah. It’s such a waste to kill a cow. It could’ve helped us in the field for a very long time.”

“Well, the cow is already dead, so there\'s no use crying over it. I\'ve never eaten beef before, so I’m excited.”

Soon, everyone had their own bowl of rice topped with large pieces of beef. They muttered to each other, comparing beef slices to see who had the larger pieces before eating with jovial smiles.

“Just eat. Don’t think about it too much about it. Who do you think you are? An immortal or something? You don’t have to bother with that Natural Disaster.” Li Huowang received the massive cow heart that had been stewed with rock sugar.

“This is too big.” Li Huowang stared at the massive heart that weighed at least four catty. The only way to cook it was to stew it whole, or the insides of the heart would remain raw.

“Go ahead and eat it first. If you can’t finish it, just give it to me. I have a big appetite.”

Bai Lingmiao picked up her chopsticks and dug out a gold bracelet from inside the heart before presenting the dish to Li Huowang.

“Why did you put a gold bracelet inside the heart of the cow?”

“I don’t know. My mother taught me that, and she said it\'s good for the body.”

Li Huowang was actually pretty hungry after running around all morning dealing, trying to deal with the Natural Disaster. He poked his chopstick into the heart and ate it as if it were a massive dumpling.

A distinct fragrance exploded in his mouth, and he chewed on it with a smile.

Meanwhile, a dazed Puppy carrying his daughter walked over to Li Huowang.

For the first time in a while, Puppy had no appetite.

Just then, Puppy knelt on the ground and prostrated, kowtowing three times to Li Huowang amidst his frustration and sadness.

Li Huowang stopped chewing and looked at the baby in Puppy’s arms.

Before Puppy could say anything, Li Huowang said bluntly, “I can’t help you. Your daughter is not sick nor is she disabled. She was born with that. Even if I remove her skin, her skin would grow back in the same way.”

Li Huowang didn’t even consider using his primordial breath to try and cure Puppy’s daughter. It was just too risky. He had just managed to move his primordial breath to the Root Chakra. If he were to use it forcefully, he could end up changing Puppy’s daughter for the worse.

The Sitting Oblivion Dao did have some illusory techniques, but it would only address the symptom rather than the issue itself.

Puppy’s face fell, and he walked away with his daughter. He had just taken two steps when he raised his arm and slapped himself hard. Tears had already fallen down his cheeks before his hand could land on his face.

“Sigh. Puppy really is pitiful. I wonder if his daughter would hate him once she grows up?” Bai Lingmiao mused.

Li Huowang turned to look at Bai Lingmiao and said in a deep tone, “If he’s pitiful, what about you?”

“What?” Bai Lingmiao’s pupils shrank into needle points.

“Do you really think that you can fool me? How long are you going to hide it from me?” Li Huowang placed the cow heart back into the bowl.

“Who told you that?!” Bai Lingmiao exclaimed angrily, but she calmed down after meeting Li Huowang’s gaze. “Don’t worry. I’m not blind yet. As for my shorter lifespan, it is what it is. However, I have yet to celebrate my twentieth birthday, so I should have ten more years to live.”

“That’s not all,” Li Huowang said, sounding indifferent as he stared at her face, seemingly looking for any change in her expression.

Bai Lingmiao was irritated. “I don’t need your help to deal with the Immortal families. You should take better care of yourself first and recover your sanity. Who’s the damned blabbermouth who told you everything? No one else but the Second Deity knows about that, so it was her?!”

“No, it wasn\'t her. It was you. You told me everything,” Li Huowang replied. He picked up the cow heart and took a bite of it.

Bai Lingmiao was stunned. Then, she realized the meaning behind his words. She slapped the cow heart away, and it splattered on the ground. “You tricked me! You dare trick me?!”

“If I hadn\'t done that, would you have told me anything? What was your plan? Were you planning on telling me only after you\'ve gone completely blind?" Li Huowang asked, staring at her pink irises covered in white specks.

Li Huowang had actually caught onto what the Second Deity was trying to say amidst her hesitation, and he realized by then that Bai Lingmiao was hiding something from him.

However, it was still astonishing that he managed to deceive so much information from her.

Bai Lingmiao’s tone of voice rose as she exclaimed, “Fine! I admit that I\'ve been hiding information from you, and since I\'ve already admitted it. Isn\'t it fair for you to admit to the truth as well? You\'re hiding the fact that you\'re still a lunatic, right?

"You\'ve been running up Cowheart Mountain so you could somehow slip into your hallucination. Do you really think that I’m blind?!”

Li Huowang took a deep breath. He was about to explain when a dog\'s barking startled them out of their quarrel. Li Huowang instantly knew that Bun was the one barking, but it was Li Huowang\'s first time hearing such emotions in Bun\'s barks.

Li Huowang brought Bai Lingmiao into the yard, and they saw Bun’s fur standing on end as it glared at the main gate.

The main gate was ajar, and it was creaking as it swayed in the wind.

“Huh? I thought I locked the gate. Why is it open?” Zhao Wu asked, running up to them.

And that was when Li Huowang felt a shiver down his spine upon realizing something: everyone in the village was currently inside the Bai Family Estate.

Li Huowang jumped up onto the wall and looked around until he eventually found something suspicious. A man wearing funeral clothes and a hat was standing in a dark corner of the village.

The man had a bizarre appearance; his head was massive, it was half as big as his entire body, and he was wearing a massive hat as well. The man\'s legs were short, but his arms were long.

It was a surreal sight.

If Li Huowang were asked about the one fact that he had learned while living in this bizarre world, he\'d respond with the fact that only evil entities could be so deformed and bizarre, just like the girl who had summoned the God of Happiness.

1. In ancient China, eating beef was illegal because cows were important animals used to till the fields. It’s also a sign of respect for the cows after they worked hard in the fields. ☜
