Peerless: After traveling through time, who would still want to be Tang San's son-in-law?

Chapter 273 Di Tian: Why are they here again?
"My Lord, those guys from Shrek are here again, and the auspicious beast is following them."

In the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest, Di Tian suddenly opened his eyes.

This time, the auspicious beast took the initiative to leave the Star Dou Great Forest with the tacit consent of the Silver Dragon King and went to the human world. The Silver Dragon King did not make any statement, but it was impossible for Di Tian not to make some preparations.

On Emperor Rachel's body, there is one of Emperor Tian's reverse scales, which allows Emperor Tian to sense the situation of the auspicious beast to a certain extent, and to cross space to take action when necessary.

"Ugh--"

A deep and long sigh sounded, and after a while, the Silver Dragon King ordered: "Since they are here to hunt souls...you should make some arrangements to prevent them from killing more soul beasts."

"Yes... Lord."

Di Tian lowered his eyes, and no one knew what emotion was in his eyes.

Without taking any action, they allowed Shrek's group of soul masters to hunt souls. Countless soul beasts were killed by them along the way, and the soul rings that they had obtained through millions of years of hard training were not even worth their attention.

At this time, they directly accelerated the speed of completing soul hunting, and it was actually for the purpose of protecting other innocent soul beasts.

As the God of Beasts, he actually needs to sacrifice some soul beasts to protect other soul beasts.

How sad.

What’s even more hateful is that those humans grow up very fast and die very fast. The soul beasts work hard for tens of thousands of years to grow, but they catch up in just a few decades, plundering the power accumulated by the soul beasts over the years, and then age rapidly in just a few decades, turning into dust along with the power that the soul beasts have cultivated with great difficulty!
For example, this Huo Yuhao, whom Di Tian had only met a few years ago, came back while Di Tian was taking a nap, and he was targeting soul beasts that were older than him.

“Moon Blade Martial Soul… We need to find one with light attributes. Aura Martial Soul? I’ve never seen one before, but the auxiliary type should be the same as the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda. Just find one at random. And this unknown Huo Yuhao… We need to find one with spiritual attributes. Considering the relationship between the two sides, we have to find one with better abilities…”

"There are two more power-type ones... We need to prepare one with dragon bloodline, otherwise it might be absorbed by the Clear Sky Hammer spirit and wasted..."

Di Tian used his reverse scale to sense the movements of Shrek and his group, while searching for a suitable soul beast in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Since he was destined to lose several ten thousand year old soul beasts, Di Tian would naturally look for a soul beast that was nearing the end of its life and unable to break through to serve as the scapegoat.

"uh-huh?"

Suddenly, Di Tian saw a familiar purple figure. As if sensing Di Tian's breath, the purple figure ran away into the distance as if fleeing.

"It's a spiritual attribute, for sure... since you were able to escape from the auspicious beasts several times, your ability is naturally pretty good. Well, it's you."

Thinking of this, Di Tian stretched out his claws and directly crossed the space, grabbing the purple figure that was about to escape, and flew towards other territories suitable for soul beasts in his memory without stopping.

It would take Shrek's group of guys half a day at most to reach the Star Dou Great Forest, but they didn't have that much time to waste with Di Tian.

……

While Di Tian was busy looking for a suitable sacrifice, Shrek and his crew had already reached the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.

"The Star Forest is ahead. Let's take a rest and eat something first, and adjust our condition to the best. We will enter the Star Forest in half an hour."

Under the command of Zhang Lexuan, everyone landed slowly and each found a piece of land to relax their tired bodies.

At Zhang Lexuan's invitation, Huo Yuhao took on the role of chef this time.

"Here, your grilled fish."

When the first grilled fish came out of the oven, Huo Yuhao handed it directly to Wang Dong.

"Thank you."

Wang Dong immediately grabbed it and bit off a piece of meat.

"Phew, hot, hot, hot..."

Wang Dong opened his mouth slightly and exhaled in small sips to dissipate the heat in his mouth.

"Who told you to be so impatient? You just took a bite right after it was grilled."

Huo Yuhao sighed helplessly, took out a pot of ice water from the storage soul guide and handed it to Wang Dong.

"Gudu... gudu..."

saved.

After swallowing the fish with ice water, Wang Dong returned the kettle to Huo Yuhao, blew on the grilled fish to cool it down, and then ate it in small bites.

"You've eaten it so many times, why do you still get burned so often?"

While busy with his work, Huo Yuhao also complained: "You are also stupid. You didn't even know to spit it out after you got burned."

Wang Dong pouted and said, "That would be a waste."

It was rare for Huo Yuhao to cook personally, and Wang Dong didn’t want to waste the food. It had been more than two years since Wang Dong last ate the food made by Huo Yuhao himself.

"Ding--"

A crisp sound was heard, and after Huo Yuhao adjusted the position of the grilled fish, he came to the soul guide oven next to him and took out the grilled fish one by one.

"This soul guide is quite convenient. It was baked so quickly."

Wang Dong, who was watching Huo Yuhao's actions throughout the process, couldn't help but smack his lips when he saw so many grilled fish coming out of the oven at once.

As he said that, Wang Dong wanted to reach out and grab a piece of grilled fish to eat.

Huo Yuhao reached out and slapped Wang Dong's hand away. He said with a smile, "You haven't finished the food on hand yet, but you're eyeing the food in the pot now?"

Wang Dong looked at Huo Yuhao angrily and said confidently, "Is it not possible?"

Facing Wang Dong's gaze, Huo Yuhao turned away and said with his head down: "Don't worry, the fish is not ready yet."

Put the roasted fish into the prepared tin foil box, which has already been prepared with seasonings and side dishes. You can start stewing as soon as the roasted fish is put in.

Well, tinfoil was something that was introduced by Huo Yuhao and promoted by the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.

It is called tinfoil, but it is actually aluminum foil. When Huo Yuhao first started tinkering with this thing, he was misled by the name of tinfoil. After tinning with it for a long time, he found that using tin to make tinfoil would give the food a tin taste. That strange metallic taste would greatly affect the delicious food.

Later, he tried several common metals in his previous life and found that aluminum that can form an aluminum oxide protective layer is the best material for making tinfoil. As for why he cared about tinfoil in his previous life, Huo Yuhao had no idea.

After putting the grilled fish into tin foil and stewing them, Huo Yuhao no longer paid attention to this side and turned his attention back to the grilled fish he was cooking himself.

After grilling fish for the inner courtyard students according to their levels of cultivation, the sound of boiling water came from the tin foil box, and it was obvious that this batch could be eaten.

Huo Yuhao was obviously being lazy by doing this. He grilled part of the fish himself and made the other part into convenient and quick tinfoil grilled fish.

Opening a box of tinfoil-baked fish and smelling the aroma, Wang Dong was surprised and said, "Wow, so many grilled fish were made so quickly? Why didn't I see this method at Jiubao Restaurant?"

“I didn’t teach you that.”

Huo Yuhao said casually.

The recipe book was so thick that even though Huo Yuhao had a very good memory, he couldn't just flip through all his memories at will. Many memories that Huo Yuhao was not aware of were thrown into the corner of the memory palace, gathering dust, waiting for Huo Yuhao to look through them next time.

"call--"

After picking up a piece of fish and letting it cool, Wang Dong slowly put it into his mouth and tasted it: "It's a bit overcooked, the fish meat has no toughness at all, and the taste is not as good as the one you grilled yourself, but it has absorbed a lot of soup, and the taste is okay, not bad."

“Um… Huo Yuhao, do you have any extra grilled fish?”

A somewhat stiff voice was heard, and Huo Yuhao turned his head to look in the direction where the voice came from.

"Emperor Rachel?"

Huo Yuhao raised his eyebrows.

"As for grilled fish, you've seen it. I grilled two for each person. If you're not full, eat the dry food you brought with you."

After all, they are all Soul Kings, Soul Emperors, and even Soul Douluos. This kind of ordinary fish caught casually will not even explode soul rings when killed. It’s okay to cook it to satisfy your cravings, but if you want to replenish energy, you still have to look for high-level dry food that you bring with you, such as high-age soul beast meat.

"Dry food doesn't taste good..."

Di Rachel muttered softly.

After eating the grilled fish made by Huo Yuhao and looking at the dry food she had prepared, Di Rachel had no appetite at all.

"Dry food doesn't taste good?"

Although Di Rachel's voice was very low, it was still caught by Huo Yuhao's ears.

This shouldn't be the case. The method of making pickled meat jerky has been handed over to Jiubao Chamber of Commerce. Even though it doesn't taste good, it's not enough to make Di Rachel put down her pride and come to me.

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Di Rachel's eyes, but when she thought of the meat stored in the ring, she finally nodded slightly.

Although Di Tian asked her to prepare some dry food before setting off, it was obvious that Di Rachel, who would just grab any soul beast she liked when she was hungry, had no problem roasting the food. But leaving aside the burnt parts, the simply roasted meat was really hard to eat without any seasoning.

Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment, but without saying anything, he took out a bag of dried meat from his storage soul guide and handed it to Di Rachel.

Halfway through, he thought of Di Rachel's bloodline and thought that Tang 50 might be more edible, so he took out another bag of jerky from the storage bag and handed it to Di Rachel.

Even Huo Yuhao didn’t have much beef jerky made from the powerful Iron Beef who had cultivated for 5,000 years. The Jiubao Chamber of Commerce didn’t have much either. Huo Yuhao usually chewed a piece in his mouth when he was traveling at full speed. It was very suitable for replenishing his physical strength.

"The half-hour break is almost over. Eat some dried meat to fill your stomach."

Di Rachel took the jerky and turned to leave.

"Not even a thank you."

Wang Dong crossed his arms and muttered in dissatisfaction.

"Wang Dong."

Huo Yuhao shook his head slightly, signaling Wang Dong not to dwell on such unimportant matters.

Di Ruiqiu paused, then stepped back in front of Huo Yuhao and whispered, “Thank you…thank you.”

After saying that, Di Rachel glanced at Wang Dong and without saying anything else, she walked to the rest area and started to eat the dried meat.

After watching Di Rachel leave, Huo Yuhao frowned and looked at Wang Dong: "Did she offend you? Why are you so angry?"

"I……"

Wang Dong was a little afraid to look Huo Yuhao in the face.

Wang Dong also knew that he shouldn't do this, but when he saw Di Rachel, he inexplicably felt a surge of anger.

After calming down, Wang Dong whispered, "She was the first to be impolite."

"What you said..."

Huo Yuhao sighed helplessly, "Whether others say thank you or not is a matter of their character, but if you point it out, you are deliberately embarrassing them, and it also makes you look like a big shot..."

"..."

Wang Dong pursed his lips and did not refute.

Wang Dong knew he was wrong, but he still felt uncomfortable facing Huo Yuhao's preaching.

"Okay, stop sulking."

Seeing Wang Dong like this, Huo Yuhao sighed, stopped preaching, touched the Twenty-Four Bridges and Moonlight Night on his waist, and took out a bag of treasured dried meat.

This one is ten thousand years old. If ingredients that are a thousand years old can be bought occasionally, ingredients that are ten thousand years old are hard to come by.

Because the birth of a soul ring means that the soul beast's essence, energy and spirit have been integrated into the soul ring, and the blood and energy in the body have almost dried up, and it has no nutritional value.

Therefore, ten thousand year old food means one less ten thousand year old spirit ring in the world. Obviously, in most cases, no one would do this.

"Beef jerky?"

"eat."

Looking at Wang Dong who had thrown all his emotions to the wind in an instant, Huo Yuhao smiled gently.

This is more like the Wang Dong I know.

"Stop, stop, stop. Eat slowly. No one is going to snatch it from you."

Seeing his treasured dried meat being stuffed into Wang Dong's mouth, Huo Yuhao immediately regretted it.

Is this how you eat this thousand-year-old dried meat? Shouldn't you chew it carefully and savor it carefully?

"Leave one for me..."

Huo Yuhao reached out to rescue him.

He only ate one piece of jerky, and Wang Dong ate it all.

"I do not."

Wang Dong grabbed the last piece of jerky and waved it in front of Huo Yuhao as if to show off, then bit the jerky hard.

Huo Yuhao’s eyebrows twitched slightly.

Hold on, hold on, you can't beat this girl.

Amid the noise and bustle, the remaining time was gone.

"gather!"

Following Zhang Lexuan's order, the scattered students gathered together instantly and headed towards the Star Forest.

Huo Yuhao, who was at the center of the team, fell into deep thought as he looked at the forest that was getting closer and closer.

If we set out an hour earlier, we should be able to avoid that group of evil soul masters. After all, with their speed, they can run more than ten kilometers in an hour even in the dangerous Star Dou Forest.

Well, we have to take a detour...but the original book doesn't give the route. It would be troublesome if we encounter the evil soul master instead.

Forget it, let nature take its course.

"We are about to enter the mixed zone. We will encounter more ten thousand year soul beasts. Everyone, cheer up."

In the mental sharing channel, Huo Yuhao sent out a mental message.

At this moment, Shrek and his companions, with Huo Yuhao as the center, were exploring deep into the Star Dou Great Forest. Huo Yuhao, who was in the middle, was not only responsible for providing spiritual detection to explore the surrounding situation, but also had to change the spiritual detection mode from time to time to scan farther and search for possible soul beasts.

"Strange, this operation went a little too smoothly."

Mo Xuan, who was in the middle, muttered softly in the mental sharing channel.

This was not the first time that Mo Xuan had gone deep into the mixed zone. Usually, before he had completely entered the mixed zone, he had already encountered several ten-thousand-year soul beasts and experienced several battles.

They have already entered the mixed zone for a while, but have not encountered any ten thousand year soul beasts. Even if there are any, they are only ten or twenty thousand year old small creatures, which are not within their needs.

"At least I have my spiritual detection to guide me. If I keep wasting my energy in encounters, I would look like a loser."

Huo Yuhao took a break from his busy schedule and said.
