I dodge again!
Another stab!
This should kill it, right!?
Around a large round table, Jiang Liu and his four disciples sat together, fighting fiercely in the ga.
Red Boy, initially not very interested in such card gas, rely saw them as a few pieces of paper; what fun could there be?
However, after watching a few rounds, he too beca completely engrossed, his eyes widening as he found the card ga indeed very interesting, far more so than his hide-and-seek gas.
It wasn't just Red Boy; even the Demon Kings and Demon Marshal under him slowly gathered behind Jiang Liu and his group, watching earnestly as they played Legends of the Three Kingdoms.
The different roles, the cards each held in hand? It was really very interesting.
Unknowingly, tens of Little Demons had gathered behind them, creating sowhat the atmosphere of a crowd gambling.
Relatively speaking, Red Boy had the best impression of Jiang Liu, so for the past few rounds, he had been standing behind Jiang Liu, intently watching his moves.
Being the most experienced in Legends of the Three Kingdoms, Sun Wukong and the others were just beginners; hence, after five rounds, Jiang Liu had only lost one round due to bad luck.
As he watched Jiang Liu, finally playing as the spy, Lv ng closed himself off for a few rounds, holding a large stack of cards before launching a storm-like attack, swiftly defeating the Lord to win the final victory, Red Boy found the ga even more interesting.
With what felt like two little cats clawing at his heart, Red Boy, after watching for so long, believed he had understood the ga and could not wait to say, "Holy Monk, Holy Monk, let join too? Let play as well?"
"Hmm, I, Old Sun, am a bit tired now; I'll just rest a bit!" Hearing Red Boy wanting to join the table, Sun Wukong, who was shuffling cards, said.
As he spoke, he made a gesture to stand up.
"This Monkey, he really cares about his nephew Red Boy, doesn't he?" Sun Wukong's action surprised Jiang Liu a bit as he glanced at him.
It was he who had initially suggested playing Legends of the Three Kingdoms, and now hearing Red Boy wanting to play, he was the one who actively stood up?
Tired? Are you kidding? The Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Sun Wukong, getting tired after a few rounds of Legends of the Three Kingdoms? Anyone would know with their toes that it's impossible.
"Wukong, you sit down, I am sowhat tired myself, let Red Boy take my place, and I'll guide him from the side..." Seeing Sun Wukong about to rise, Jiang Liu spoke up first and stood up himself.
"Great, great, Holy Monk, you teach !" Hearing Jiang Liu's words, willing to teach him voluntarily, Red Boy nodded enthusiastically.
Having watched for a while, Red Boy could obviously tell that Jiang Liu had the best skills; having him as a teacher couldn't be better.
"Um, Great King..." However, just at that mont, suddenly, a Little Demon ca over and said to Red Boy, "The banquet is almost ready; we can now invite the honored guests to the table!"
"Almost ready!?" Red Boy, who had just sat down, paused upon hearing this and then waved his hand, saying, "Alright, let's wait a bit more. Let play a round to practice a bit first!"
In the blink of an eye, another hour passed...
"Hahaha, won again! Holy Monk, you are indeed very skilled!"
Finally, as the Lord, Red Boy, managing a two-against-one, eliminated both Rebels and, delighted, turned to Jiang Liu to speak.
Having played several rounds, Red Boy, although growing more fond of the ga to the point of addiction, had indulged enough for the ti being.
After the ga ended, Red Boy stood up, eagerly inviting Jiang Liu and his group to join the banquet.
Initially, Red Boy had just so fondness for Jiang Liu, not liking Sun Wukong and the others much.
However, after playing several rounds of the ga together, Red Boy's impression of Jiang Liu and his group imdiately rose by several levels.
For a child, the best way to build relationships is naturally to play together.
As long as you play together, and everyone enjoys themselves, naturally, the relationship will beco much closer.
"Co, let toast you all first!" Having warmly ushered Jiang Liu and his group to the table, Red Boy took the initiative to raise his cup and said to Jiang Liu and the others.
"Cheers!" Jiang Liu and his group, naturally very gracious, also held up their cups and said.
After everyone had their fill, drinking deeply and eating heartily, the atmosphere in Fla Cloud Cave really felt like it was ignited, very delightful indeed.
"Hmm, your food here at Fla Cloud Cave is really not bad at all, better than many places we've been on our journey!" Beside them, Zhu Bajie, eating with great gusto, nodded his head and said.
"Yes, indeed not bad!" Even Sha Wujing, sitting next to him, nodded while cutting a piece of at, tossing it into his mouth, nodding in agreent.
Previously, while avoiding Guanyin, the at in the Demon Clan's nest had been difficult for Sha Wujing to swallow.
"Hehehe, when I first ca to Withered Pine Stream, my mother worried I wouldn't eat well or stay warm, so she sent her best chef along with . I've gotten used to these als, and indeed, I find it difficult to swallow anyone else's cooking!"
Overhearing Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing's complints, Red Boy's face showed a proud expression.
For a child's nature, receiving such praise was indeed cause for great joy.
"However, although the culinary skills of your Fla Cloud Cave are excellent, they only rank third among all the als I, Old Sun, have had..." Sun Wukong spoke up at this point, addressing Red Boy.
"Oh? Only third? Then who are the top two?" Red Boy, feeling a bit unreconciled upon hearing this, asked.
Having lived for nearly a thousand years, Red Boy had eaten many als, but so far, he hadn't tasted any that were better than his own.
"In I, Old Sun's long life, the third best are your Fla Cloud Cave's dishes. Second place belongs to the Peach Banquet by Empress in the Heavenly Court. It wasn't just the dishes that were delicious, but the Jadescent Nectar, Immortal Fruit, and Spirit Grass were all exquisite!" Sun Wukong said, lifting his cup for a sip.
Red Boy found it hard to argue with this since the Empress's Peach Banquet was a sought-after event by many Superior Immortals and Buddhas, and indeed, those dishes surpassed his own.
So, Red Boy followed up, "Then, what's the number one tastiest thing!?"
"Hehehe..." Hearing Red Boy's inquiry, Sun Wukong's face revealed a smug expression, saying, "The tastiest, naturally, is my master's cooking. His culinary skills are hailed as the best in the three realms, and rightly so!"
"Ah!? Holy Monk, are your dishes really that delicious!?" Hearing Sun Wukong's words, Red Boy turned his head, his face a mix of surprise and anticipation, and addressed Jiang Liu.
"Hehehe, Red Boy, my Monkey Brother isn't wrong. I, Old Pig, have eaten plenty of fine foods during my ti as Marshal Tianpeng in the Heavenly Court, but indeed, our master's cooking is the most delicious. The cumin kebabs, and that spicy hotpot... hiss..." Zhu Bajie joined in, his mouth watering as he ntioned so specialties.
"Eldest Brother and Second Brother are right!" Sha Wujing also nodded in agreent, earnestly endorsing his two elder disciples' declarations.
"Wow, in that case, I must really taste the Holy Monk's culinary skills. I wonder if you might be willing..." Hearing what Sun Wukong and the others said, Red Boy's eyes also shone as he stared eagerly at Jiang Liu.
"Honored by the Great King's hospitality, and with nothing else to offer, tonight, I will humbly attempt to cook a dinner for the Great King!" Hearing this, Jiang Liu did not decline, pressing his palms together and nodding.
"Hehehe, that's truly wonderful!" Hearing Jiang Liu agree, Red Boy's eyes twinkled even more.
For a mont, it felt as though his life had beco incredibly blessed.
This afternoon, he could play Legends of the Three Kingdoms all afternoon and indulge himself. And tonight, there was a dinner prepared by Holy Monk Xuanzang?
The als touted as the tastiest in the three realms? He was eager to taste what that was like.
Fun gas, delicious food...
For Red Boy, was there anything more blissful in this world?
...
Leaving the lively atmosphere of Fla Cloud Cave aside, anwhile, thousands of miles away, an endless range of volcanoes blazed, seeming to roast the earth and sky alike.
An eagle flew swiftly through the midair, quickly crossing the fiery expanse and heading into the distance.
It wasn't long before it landed in front of a cave dwelling.
"Who goes there? What brings you to Banana Leaf Cave on Erald Cloud Mountain!?"
Two gatekeeping female demons eyed the eagle as it alighted and morphed into a humanoid form, which was evidently at the level of a Demon King, who said, "Please inform the lady that a subject under the command of the Holy Infant King from the Fla Cloud Cave seeks an audience!"
The Holy Infant King, naturally, was Red Boy, and these female demons understood this well.
One of the female demons went inside to pass on the ssage and soon ca back out. "You may enter, the lady allows it!"
"Very well," the Demon King nodded in response.
"Eagle?" However, as the female demons watched him enter, their gaze filled with pity, and shaking their heads, they thought to themselves: Could this be a fool?
"Under the Holy Infant King, Demon King..." Upon entering the cave, the Demon King saw Princess Iron-Fan and began to speak, also bowing as a greeting.
Yet before he could finish, Princess Iron-Fan interrupted him with a calm voice, "I hear you called 'old lady'? Do I look that old to you?"
Cold!
Although Princess Iron-Fan's words were calm, the temperature inside Banana Leaf Cave seed to plumt suddenly, causing the Demon King to shiver.
"Old lady, I, I, uh, wrong, my lady, I misspoke, I misspoke!"
Smack, smack, smack, the Demon King transford from the eagle hurriedly slapped himself several tis and begged for rcy.
