Wang Dong'er was a little reluctant, but the leave time was limited after all.

"Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle, we're leaving."

Da Ming nodded and told them to be careful on their journey. Er Ming coughed and said, "That Ji Siyuan, you left a jar of wine from yesterday. I remember you said you'd give it to him as a gift."

Erming shamelessly reached out to ask for it. Wang Dong'er immediately objected: "No, that's for us to drink."

"What are you doing drinking alcohol at such a young age!" Erming really wanted to try it. After all, the aroma that wafted out when Ji Siyuan drank it yesterday had whetted his appetite.

Ji Siyuan scratched his head. This guy really didn't hide anything at all; he made no attempt to conceal that he had been spying on him yesterday.

"The fruit wine is a specially made low-alcohol beverage, meant for us. I think it would be better for people of your build to drink high-alcohol spirits." Ji Siyuan did have some high-alcohol spirits on hand, but those were the base spirits for mixing drinks. He and Wang Dong'er couldn't drink them, so giving them to Da Ming and Er Ming would be a good choice.

Da Ming wasn't concerned about the wine; instead, he was bothered by how Ji Siyuan addressed them: "Uncle? Perhaps you should call us elder uncles. Your parents couldn't possibly be older than us."

Ji Siyuan smiled and replied, "That's hard to say. Maybe one is older than you and the other is younger."

Da Ming and Er Ming laughed heartily, assuming that Ji Siyuan hadn't discerned their identities and was simply speculating about their ages. In their view, no one in the Douluo Continent was older than them.

Ji Siyuan tossed a bottle of base liquor to Erming: "If possible, you can try mixing it with other liquors." Erming immediately forgot about it and prepared to find a place to enjoy himself.

Da Ming, being reasonable, produced a piece of ten-thousand-year-old whale glue: "We don't have much of a gift for you. This nearly fifty-thousand-year-old whale glue is for you."

Neither Ji Siyuan nor Wang Dong'er went to pick them up.

I really don't want to touch this thing again.

"No, no, no, Ji Siyuan and I don't need it." Wang Dong'er quickly told Da Ming to put it away.

Erming: "What are you saying? Your uncle and I went to the deep sea to get this. Don't think you can resist eating it just because you ate too much of it when you were little." Then he looked at Ji Siyuan: "Good lad, you don't even want this kind of top-tier spiritual item that can improve your physique."

Ji Siyuan felt even worse. This thing was indeed a good thing, but he really didn't want it.

"Shrek Academy has it, and we've already eaten it. We don't need to eat it now." Seeing the serious Da Ming and Er Ming, Ji Siyuan didn't bother making up excuses and just said what was going on: "Okay, actually we're worried about the side effects of this stuff."

He touched his neck: "After eating last time, I was almost bitten in the neck like prey. As long as I can't fight back, once I make a move, the other party will be injured."

It was a very honest answer, but perhaps too honest. Da Ming immediately noticed the problem: "Who did you eat with? Was it Dong'er?"

Wang Dong'er whispered, "There's another classmate. But we all bit Ji Siyuan."

"What? There are other people? Men or women?" As soon as he finished speaking, Da Ming wanted to slap himself. The one who could pounce on Ji Siyuan and bite his neck must be a girl.

They glared at Ji Siyuan: "You better behave yourself, or you'll make sure you know what a mistake is if you dare to let my Dong'er down."

After briefly explaining how he consumed the whale gelatin, the two were finally relieved. "Good lad, his talent is quite impressive. His mental resilience and resistance are truly remarkable."

What a load of rubbish! How could he have turned into this after being away for half a year?

Not only did it pounce on people after eating whale jelly, but it was also seen doing so.

Da Ming immediately put away the whale glue: "From now on, eat less of these kinds of spiritual substances with side effects. No, you shouldn't eat them at all!"

Now we don't even get a return gift.

Erming reluctantly handed over a portion of his homemade wine to Ji Siyuan; wine for wine seemed fair enough. But Erming's pained expression revealed the truth. This wine, of course, had certain effects.

"Don't blame me for not warning you, kid. This isn't just any ordinary wine. It's Titan Spirit Wine that I brewed, containing immense power. It's wild and untamed, yet it can open up meridians. You should know how ferocious this power is, given that it was forcibly opened by external force."

Most people would only sip slowly, not daring to drink too much, but this was Ji Siyuan. "Uh, you still underestimate me. Putting everything else aside, I'm a master at mixing drinks. I can just make one whenever I want a drink."

"Get out! Get out of here right now!" Erming said irritably. "You won't give me your brewed wine, so take mine and get out!"

Da Ming: "Keep an eye on Dong'er on the road."

Wang Dong'er: "Uncle, I'm now in the Third Ring Road, one ring higher than him. I should be the one taking care of him more."

Ji Siyuan: "Do we have to try again to see who's stronger?"

"Let's give it a try."

There was no need to wait for them to compete; the two were taken down the mountain, saving them the journey.

In the previous competition, Da Ming and Er Ming had already realized that Wang Dong'er was no match for Ji Siyuan.

"Damn it, even my second father thinks I'm not as good as you."

"That's the truth, okay?"

Wang Dong'er snorted: "If it weren't for the fact that you would have to cook for me on the way, I would have taught you a lesson."

"That's the truth, okay?"

Wang Dong'er snorted: "If it weren't for the fact that you would have to cook for me on the way, I would have taught you a lesson."

Delicious food can make Wang Dong'er cancel the fight.

In contrast, the food at Haotianbao and Shrek Academy's canteen was more about filling one's stomach than being particularly delicious.

This feeling was even more pronounced after eating the food cooked by Ji Siyuan.

Previously, banquets always featured barbecue, so there was little difference in technique. But regular meals are different; even just rice dishes and rice bowls show a clear difference, not to mention snacks and main dishes.

A professional chef can be easily distinguished from an unprofessional one.

"I'm hungry," Wang Dong'er said as soon as she stepped out the door, then took out the dishes she had packed away: "Hurry up and cook."

"We haven't walked very far, and you haven't even had enough to eat at home?" They hadn't even been out of the Haotian Sect for an hour.

Wang Dong'er turned her head away: "The food at home isn't very good, and if I were to eat at home, you'd have to cook several extra portions. Uncle and Second Uncle eat a lot."

It's unclear whether she felt sorry for the food or for Ji Siyuan.

Everything was laid out; it was time to cook.

"This is a cold dish of cucumbers arranged on a plate. Eat it while it's hot or cold." Before he could finish speaking, Wang Dong'er started eating, and judging from how much she enjoyed it, it was delicious.

After the two finished eating, Wang Dong'er began to clean up as usual.

Tang San sighed in his spiritual sea: "Da Ming and Er Ming are indeed not the people I know."

Ji Siyuan didn't know much about the normal Ming and Erming, so he could only listen to Tang San's explanation.

"They became priests, but they forgot they belonged to the sea god. Others can hunt sea spirit beasts, but they shouldn't."

Ji Siyuan watched the other person sighing, unsure how to comfort him. Tang San suddenly added, "It seems that [Tang the Beast]'s daily words and actions have influenced them. Neglecting his duties and abusing his position to infringe upon others' interests, this person is already courting death. This world needs a new, normal Sea God!"
