Chapter 218 The Cautious Warrior

It can be said that the materials used this time were the simplest Lu Wu had ever used in all the time he had been running his stall.

With granulated sugar, natural coloring, and bamboo skewers, everything is ready.

Stuck with no customers, Lu Wu had no desire to start work.

Lying on the beach, with her head resting on Mimi's belly and listening to the sound of the waves, Lu Wu felt drowsy.

……

A shooting star streaked across the sky above the first isolated island not far from Luwu, and a figure appeared on the island.

It's a young man.

"Phew, nobody's here."

After discovering that there were no other human signs here, the man muttered to himself.

"This assessment is so strict! They don't even allow the use of the One-World Pass. Are they afraid of cheating?"

"How are we supposed to find that rainbow stone in such a big place? Does anyone know if it's on land or underwater?"

"No, I have to be careful."

His name is Ye Chi, and he is a disciple of the Rainbow Gate in this generation. He is currently undergoing the assessment for new disciples.

There were hundreds of other disciples like him who randomly landed in this sea area, and the assessment had already begun.

Passing the test is simple; just find the Rainbow Stone.

Legend has it that the Rainbow Gate was founded on the Rainbow Stone, but this thing is spiritual and very difficult to find, it depends entirely on luck.

Besides this method, those who persist for seven days without being eliminated are also considered to have passed the assessment.

Yes, there is competition among the disciples of this sect in this assessment.

As for Ye Chi, his aptitude was rather mediocre, barely meeting the entry-level standard. Under the spotlight of those geniuses and prodigies, his development was just average.

Ye Chi, whose luck wasn't great, decided to try and survive the next seven days.

If you can't beat them, can't you at least avoid them?

Be a cautious yet courageous person, and you will carve out your own path.

"This place is nice."

Looking around the island, Ye Chi decided to dig a hole on this isolated island and hide there.

Just do it.

By the time he had prepared his hiding place, it was already very late.

Stretching and gazing casually at the sea, Ye Chi suddenly noticed sparks flickering in the distance.

"Someone?"

Ye Chi's back tightened.

Then someone came looking for us. Wait, the firelight seems to have stayed in one spot and hasn't moved. He probably hasn't been discovered yet.

But isn't this person afraid of revealing their location?

It's all about skill and daring.

Ye Chi guessed, without any intention of investigating further.

As the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat; he wanted to live.

The "expert" Lu Wu was pouring sugar into the machine. The time had come, and even if there were no customers, Lu Wu had to get up and start working.

The glass fire is now online; the machine has already been preheated, and the sugar is melting.

The white sugar strands are flung out by centrifugal force.

Lu Wu quickly intercepted it with a bamboo skewer and then began to roll it up.

The only valuable step in making marshmallows is rolling the sugar strands. These strands are blown around and can easily drift away or clump together.

It takes some effort to wind it into shape.

With skillful wrist movements, Lu Wu twisted and turned the bamboo skewer, quickly gathering the sugar strands together, and a white ball gradually took shape in Lu Wu's hand.

The dumplings still retained the warmth of the flames, and the marshmallows, about the size of a washbasin, looked soft and fluffy.

Through the moonlight, sparse gaps can be seen.

The air was filled with the sweet aroma of sugar, like the melting sunshine in winter.

Take a breath, and the subtle aroma of caramel fills your nostrils, warm and clean.

The night breeze brushed against Lu Wu's hair, scattering the drifting sugar threads in the air, much like willow catkins rising in the wind—beautiful and dreamlike.

Lu Wu tore off a small piece, tasted it, and squinted her eyes in enjoyment.

The freshly baked marshmallows were warm and melted in the mouth like clouds. What surprised Lu Wu the most was their sweetness.

It's not cloying at all; instead, it transforms into countless delicate threads that tantalize the taste buds, making her want to keep savoring it.

The sugar strands are delicate, and despite their large size, they are actually very light when held in the hand.

The texture is slightly stringy; before you can even trace the shape of the sugar strands in your mouth, the marshmallow melts in the warmth of your mouth, leaving only a sweet aftertaste.

Yes, it's like a dream come true.

Lu Wu gave herself a score of ten.

"Woof woof!" It smells so good, the dog wants to eat it.

Dog Aotian wagged its tail and circled around Lu Wu, its tongue lolling out and drooling like a waterfall, clearly very hungry.

After Mimi transforms into a cat, her personality becomes as proud and aloof as a cat's.

He didn't say anything, just lay in Lu Wu's arms, constantly brushing his tail against Lu Wu's wrist as if he wanted to say something but couldn't, it was ticklish.

Its cat-like eyes were fixed on the marshmallow, never leaving its face.

The fire had already stopped on Lu Wu's head.

And just then, Lu Wu held up the cotton candy in her hand, at a height that Huo Huo could touch with just a slight bend of her head.

Faced with delicious food, the bird could not resist the temptation.

"Chirp!"

The birds will have a taste.

Huo Huo thought for a moment, then lowered its head and used its beak to pick up a small piece of cotton candy.

The sweet aroma of sugar captivated the birds.

Unfortunately, the amount she took was too small; it melted in her mouth, leaving Huo Huo feeling empty inside.

The bird wanted more food, so it ate a little more.

I peck.

This time, Huo Huo was a bit bolder and snatched away a larger amount.

She glanced down at Lu Wu and, finding that her master hadn't noticed her stealing food, happily raised her tail feathers.

It's delicious, so sweet.

This sweetness instantly seeped into her heart, bringing back some memories for Huo Huo, but they vanished in an instant.

Ah, that was her first love bird from her past life.

That's not enough; the birds still need to eat.

Having gone undetected in both operations, Huo Huo grew even bolder.

She stood on Lu Wu's head, her claws moving gently, but her head stretched out long. Seizing the opportunity, she struck again, this time snatching a cotton candy the size of a fist.

Firefire emitted a pleasant low hum.

Birds are awesome.

In fact, Lu Wu, who caught everything out of the corner of her eye, smiled.

"Is it tasty?"

Lu Wu suddenly spoke up to ask.

"Chirp!"

good to eat.

Huo Huo blurted it out, but as soon as she finished speaking, she knew she had been caught.

With a little cotton candy still on its paws, Huo Huo's beady eyes darted around, visibly panicked, yet its mouth kept moving, continuing to stuff more candy into its mouth.

Before getting scolded, you have to finish your meal.

Lu Wu grabbed Huo Huo off her head and couldn't help but chuckle as she looked at the white sugar strands clinging to the little red bird.

"It's not like we're not letting you eat."

She divided the remaining marshmallows into three portions and fed them to the three little ones.

"Meow!"

Master, you are so kind.

Mimi enjoyed being fed by Lu Wu, and he ate very carefully.

With a lick of the tongue, the barbs on the tongue are easily scraped away.

Sweets make cats happy.

Mimi's tail swayed lazily, almost unconsciously.

As for Dahuang, he was much rougher.

The palm-sized portion was rolled up in his mouth with his big tongue and all of it went in.

With a snap of its large mouth, the marshmallow was flattened inside the mouth, leaving only a thin layer.

Excited, Gou Aotian felt the cotton candy in his mouth turn into a stream of sugary liquid, flowing down his throat and into his stomach.

Go, go, go.

Dog Aotian smacked his lips in savoring the taste, then looked at the other two little ones slowly enjoying their food, and his expression suddenly turned aggrieved.

"Wang!"

Master, the dog still wants to eat.

As Lu Wu watched this scene with a smile, a thought flashed through her mind.

Perhaps she already knows how to complete this mission.
