The little monkey, despite the whippings from Su Mu, was in pain but its dignity wouldn’t allow it to bow its head!
It braved through the ordeal.
However, the boar beside it couldn’t withstand it. It had been hanging there for so long, it had already beco docile, just hoping for the day the man would be in a good mood and let it go.
Now, here cos a stubborn, face-saving monkey, causing it to take a few whippings in vain and angering the man further.
Boar: Are you mute? I’m talking to you! Can’t you stop being stubborn?
After speaking, the upside-down hanging little monkey still crossed its arms over its chest, and after the pain subsided, it still pouted defiantly.
Seeing its expression, the boar was really at its wits’ end. It thought it had found soone in the sa predicant, a kindred spirit, but instead, it encountered an earth pit.
It’s going to be a disaster for .
....
Night was about to fall, and Su Mu completed his patrol duties for the day. He was in luck today, racking up a full four thousand Favor Points.
Moreover, during his break, he cast a line and caught an exquisite long-patterned red carp.
A true fisherman, even on a delivery run, would carry a fishing rod in the trunk, always ready to cast a line at any ti and place.
.....
Passing by the willow tree, he noticed the little Golden Monkey still crossing its arms over its chest, looking defiant, and so a few more whippings ensued.
"Lulu!!"
A screech rang out. It wasn’t from the monkey, but from the affected boar.
The little monkey, although in great pain, still endured, maintaining its pride.
Seeing this, Su Mu resolved to discipline it properly for a while.
.....
He went to the water cellar, opened its lid, and placed the recently caught long-patterned red carp inside.
Before leaving today, he instructed Nannan that he would personally cook the Treasure Fish today.
Because these Treasure Fish were incredibly fierce, and with Nannan’s strength, it was difficult for her to slaughter the fish; he had to do it himself.
Su Mu stood over the water cellar, searching inside with his eyes, finally fixing on a Golden Scale Sturgeon.
With a wave of his hand, the Golden Scale Sturgeon was pulled out from the water cellar by Su Mu.
This Golden Scale Sturgeon was a ter long, with dark golden scales and a long tail. Its appearance closely resembled a sturgeon, hence the na "Golden Scale Sturgeon."
Su Mu had caught this Golden Scale Sturgeon a few months ago while retrieving nets.
Because it struggled continuously, causing several large holes in Su Mu’s special net, which took two days to repair, Su Mu had a deep impression of this Golden Scale Sturgeon and kept it in his water cellar.
One has to say, his water cellar was built quite well. This Golden Scale Sturgeon had grown larger compared to a few months ago, and its aura had also strengthened significantly.
The large water cellar that Su Mu used to nurture the Treasure Fish was carefully crafted; to ensure better growth and developnt of these Treasure Fish, Su Mu occasionally fed them so Great dicine treasures.
In his vegetable garden, he planted many Great dicines; so batches matured in large numbers, and the excess was used to feed the Treasure Fish in the water cellar to prevent waste.
Moreover, sotis Su Mu would find small fish in the river and toss so into the water cellar to feed the Treasure Fish because so Treasure Fish were carnivorous.
Thus, under Su Mu’s care, this water cellar gradually beca a small aquatic ecosystem, and Su Mu even dug it wider, enlarging it several tis.
....
Drawing out the Silver Dagger, he skillfully and swiftly slaughtered this Golden Scale Sturgeon; the entire process was smooth and seamless.
After years of fish slaughtering, he might as well be a master at it?
At this mont, the little Golden Monkey hanging there watched the slaughtered Golden Scale Sturgeon and couldn’t help but feel parched, swallowing down saliva.
This Golden Scale Sturgeon had tender flesh, suitable for blanching.
However, they had eaten boiled fish slices many tis before, it wasn’t anything new.
Then, Su Mu’s eyes lit up with an idea.
He thought of a delicacy from his hotown.
He stood up, went to the vegetable garden, and picked about ten red peppers.
Of course, these were not ordinary red peppers; they were Crimson Silence: they looked like red peppers but were actually a Great dicine. Given their extrely spicy flavor, they could be used as pickled chili.
Then, using Great dicine with similar effects to substitute various seasonings.
Finally, a mystical Great dicine version of spicy red broth was crafted by Su Mu.
Seeing the pot bubbling fervently, Nannan’s eyes sparkled with delight and she asked, "Daddy, what is this?"
Upon hearing, Su Mu smiled and said, "Hotpot."
Su Mu had long since sliced the fish into thin slices, then picking them up with chopsticks, placed them into the pot and smiled at Nannan saying, "It takes about ten seconds of scalding."
After roughly fifteen seconds, the fish was cooked, incredibly tender, combined with the effects of the Great dicine, an overwhelming surge of energy hit to the pinnacle.
Delicious!!
Su Mu hadn’t tasted sothing so authentic in a long ti.
Nannan followed her daddy’s actions, picking up a piece of fish, and blanching it for fifteen seconds.
In the end, her little face turned bright red from the spice.
"It’s so delicious!" Though it was spicy, Nannan’s eyes were full of satisfied twinkling stars.
Thus, the father and daughter duo finished the al within half an hour.
Su Mu’s aura surged notably, while Nannan even broke through several small realms, directly reaching the Mahayana Stage.
...
That night, Su Mu ditated to regulate the energy contained within himself.
He had eaten too much, half the fish, an amount which in the past would have obliterated him instantly from the sheer influx of energy.
Sparkling suddenly, a ripple of Spiritual Power erupted from the Dantian.
Celestial Immortal Seventh Realm!
Once fully digested, Su Mu also broke through to the Celestial Immortal Seventh Realm.
...
Su Mu slowly opened his eyes, looking at the flickering campfire in front of him, then raised his head to gaze at Little Nannan sleeping quietly on the willow bed, finally sweeping his eyes over the boar and little monkey hanging from the tree.
An endless stream of emotions surged within him.
It had been over two years, almost three years since he arrived here.
From being alone at the beginning, he now had Little Nannan, the elder Little Black Dragon, the second Kong Yao, the third Golden Python, the fourth Koi Carp, and more, the number of companions growing around him.
The once profound loneliness seed less pronounced; life seed not as dull and tasteless, and at least he was always striving.
With the remaining half of the night, Su Mu had no intention of wasting it.
With a wave of his hand, he took out the White Jade ditation Mat and seated himself upright on it.
Smoothly closing his eyes, he began to enter a ditative state.
In the next mont, when Su Mu reopened his eyes, he found himself still hovering above in another world.
At that mont, he felt sothing, gently parting the clouds before his eyes, and looked towards the land below....
