Battle Through the Heavens: The Rock King Emperor's Leisurely Wanderings in the Mortal World

Chapter 58 Three Pink Fox Fur

"How are you feeling now?" Zhongli slowly placed the prey, which was emitting a faint aroma of meat, aside.

"Hmm, much better. It's just that your clothes are a little loose, but they smell quite nice." Yun Yun said, bringing the sleeve close to her nose and sniffing it again.

"Whatever makes you happy. Come on, which one would you like to try first?" Zhongli slowly sat down on a rock and pointed to the three prey.

"Hmmm, let's start with that chicken then."

"Which one? Pick one out."

"Let's choose the chicken with black feet and white feathers. The black chicken looks skinny..."

"Okay." Zhongli responded lightly, and the Lock of the Mortal World floated lightly to his feet, then transformed into an iron pot.

Under Zhongli's control, the chicken landed steadily in the pot.

As soon as Zhongli's hand touched the iron pot, water began to seep from the bottom.

Immediately afterwards, he reversed the flow of the power of ice, but when this power was applied to the water in the pot, the expected freezing phenomenon did not occur.

Ice is the solid state of water after it has been cooled.

Therefore, compared to water, ice possesses a unique ability: a different kind of control over temperature.

As Zhongli delved deeper into the power of the Ice God, he reached an extraordinary level, enabling him to manipulate temperature in reverse.

That's why, incredibly, the water in that iron pot began to boil even though there was no flame heating it from below.

As for this amazing function, Zhong Li was unsure whether the Ice Queen had already developed it.

Although the seven gods had shared a period of time before the final Holy War broke out, Zhongli had never seen the Ice Queen perform such a wondrous feat.

Perhaps the little girl's mind was not on this at all; she mostly focused her use of divine power on combat skills and methods. This somewhat leisurely operation did indeed lack development value.

After all, if one wants to obtain high temperatures, Vulcan Mavica can heat up much faster. Zhong Li pondered to himself.

Yun Yun was still unable to make any big movements at this moment, as it had taken her quite a while to change her clothes.

During this time, she looked at the direction Zhong Li had left at the cave entrance at least a hundred times, worried that he would return too soon and afraid that he might be spying on her nearby.

At this moment, Yun Yun's gaze fell on Zhong Li again.

Zhongli was completely focused on preparing the food, his concentrated expression suggesting that the whole world had shrunk to just the pot in front of him.

Yun Yun couldn't help but abandon her previous slightly disrespectful thoughts towards him.

Yun Yun leaned forward slightly, her slender jade hand gently supporting her cheek, her head tilted slightly to one side, her eyes full of appreciation as she quietly watched Zhong Li prepare the food.

Even with a mask on, the exposed parts still subtly reveal his handsome and extraordinary appearance.

A woman's intuition often possesses an inexplicable precision.

At this moment, Yun Yun was seriously injured and in an extremely unfavorable situation.

Her fighting spirit had been completely sealed, as if her source of power had been drained, leaving her extremely weak.

However, unexpectedly, her perception became exceptionally sharp in such difficult circumstances.

This keen perception seemed to have endowed her with an extraordinary ability.

She was able to keenly perceive subtle changes in her surroundings, and Zhongli's every word and action naturally did not escape her perception.

It was as if she had specially equipped Zhongli with a pair of invisible eyes. Even if her gaze did not fall directly on Zhongli, those "eyes" that appeared out of nowhere would always keep a close eye on Zhongli's every move.

Through this continuous observation, a clear conclusion gradually formed in Yun Yun's mind: the person in front of her had no ill intentions whatsoever.

It must be understood that, under such circumstances, facing a stunningly beautiful woman who is severely injured, has her fighting spirit sealed, and whose movements are restricted, it is truly commendable that Zhongli could maintain his integrity like this.

Yun Yun's mind was filled with various thoughts: "Perhaps he will do something terrible to me... I am powerless to resist now. Even if he is worried that I will retaliate afterward, with his level of fighting spirit, he is fully capable of killing me and destroying the evidence, making me disappear from this world forever."

Sometimes, we have to admit that women are a rather complex group of people.

When you have the ability to do something inappropriate to her and actually do it, she'll scold you for not being a decent person; but when you have the ability to do it but choose to restrain yourself, she'll be puzzled and wonder why you didn't do it. Sometimes, she might even take the initiative to flirt with you.

It's really hard to tell whether she wants you to do that or not.

However, a woman like Yunyun, who adheres to traditional values, would naturally not do such a thing.

The latest novel is first published here!

Although Yun Yun wouldn't be so arrogant as to claim herself as the most beautiful woman in the Jia Ma Empire, she was still quite confident that she could at least rank in the top ten. Coupled with her powerful battle qi level, normally no man should be able to remain completely unresponsive...

"What... is your name?" Yun Yun couldn't help but ask.

Zhongli looked up at her, then pointed to the mask on his face, and continued cooking the chicken without saying anything more.

Zhongli casually took out three bottles of seasonings given to him by the mortal lock, opened them, smelled them, and confirmed that they were salt, pepper, and chicken essence.

"We're still short thirty tricolor dumplings...and seven bowls of milk..." Zhong Li muttered quietly.

"Wait... something weird seems to have gotten mixed in. Why are there three-colored dumplings and seven bowls of milk?! Are you sure your little chicken pot can hold all of this? Or is it just seasoning?"

Wendy was internally expressing his surprise. After all, in his mind, "Three-Color Dumplings" was a ready-made delicacy. How could it be mixed with chicken? Wouldn't the flavors mix?

"Uh... I'm not sure either, but in Lei's memory, this is definitely a dish she made..." Hearing Wendy's complaint, Zhong Li also felt a little insecure. After all, he didn't recognize the recipe at first, but after studying it more carefully...

"It does sound a bit strange... I'll take a look at some other recipes."

"I think it's feasible, but what you're suggesting does seem a bit unreliable."

Then Zhongli recited another recipe from a Lei movie about making "delicious" chicken dishes.

"First, put in three pink fox tail hairs."

Zhong Li silently read the first sentence and then stopped, choosing instead to quietly admire this wonderful cookbook...

……

"So what role does the fox fur play in this dish? And why is it specifically emphasized that it must be the pink fur from the tail..." Wendy pondered seriously; it had been a long time since he had thought about something so intently.
