Full-Time Magician: Demon Mage

Chapter 348 A Happy Marriage to a Cook

Seeing that he had taken her advice to heart, Leng Qing turned and headed to the kitchen. She had eaten some breakfast in the morning, and it was already afternoon, so she was very hungry.

"Is there nothing there?"

She saw that the equipment was complete, but there were no ingredients at all, so she decided to go to the market to buy some ingredients to store.

Seeing Leng Qing turn and head towards the door, Wang Teng asked, "Sister Leng Qing, where are you going?"

"Buying groceries!" Leng Qing answered him without turning her head.

"Hey~ wait for me~ let's go together!"

Wang Teng's face lit up with joy. He quickly put his robe into his spatial storage and followed Leng Qing's footsteps.

Although he usually just lazes around at home, he rarely goes to the market with Leng Qing, and he wants to see another side of her life.

The two then went out and quickly arrived at the back gate of the Forbidden City using the location on their mobile phone map. This place was like a huge market, with all kinds of stalls and shops selling everything.

Leng Qing's demeanor quickly transformed, becoming like that of a housewife. Her eyes expertly scanned the various stalls, and she efficiently and precisely purchased a lot of daily necessities, as well as various ingredients, snacks, and fruits.

Wang Teng followed behind her, becoming a shelf in her arms, carrying large and small bags, attracting frequent glances from passersby.

Wang Teng looked at Leng Qing walking ahead and only saw her profile. Her serious expression showed that she was a perfect housewife.

This stirred his long-dormant heart, making him want to possess this beautiful moment.

I'm so itchy to get back to work!

Seemingly sensing the overly intense gaze behind her, Leng Qing slightly turned her face, feeling as if a hungry wolf was harboring ill intentions towards her.

An hour later, the two returned to the villa and filled the empty kitchen cabinets with ingredients, and also added a lot of snacks to the living room.

Watching Leng Qing skillfully put on her apron and enter the kitchen, Wang Teng decided not to join in the fun and obediently sat in the living room waiting for the food to be served.

He was well aware of his own culinary skills.

Leaning back on the sofa and letting his mind wander, Wang Teng quickly noticed something different. After releasing his mental energy, he felt that the ice-attribute magic power was exceptionally active.

Even other elemental magical energies were squeezed out of existence, and his lightning magic training speed was much slower than usual.

"As expected of the capital city in winter, this place is simply the best place for ice-type mages to cultivate in seclusion."

"In this state, the speed of ice-type cultivation can be increased by at least three or four times compared to usual." Wang Teng felt a little regretful.

Even with the convenience of fully automated cultivation via the Star Cycle, the efficiency of lightning cultivation is still less than one-tenth of what it was in Hangzhou, almost negligible.

The spatial system is unaffected; the normal weather cycle has no power to influence changes in spatial magical energy.

After all, spatial magic is inherently inert, unlike active elemental magic.

As for the effect of the magical talent's spirit devouring, it had no significant impact; the effect remained outstanding. As a landmark city in China, the capital's population density was comparable to that of Shanghai.

His talent covered a circular area with a radius of five kilometers, and his free spiritual energy continued to flow in. However, breaking through to the unprecedented tenth realm of spiritual energy would not be so simple.

If the first to ninth realms are still within the normal range, then the tenth realm is the extraordinary realm, or rather, the realm of the Emperor.

Then it won't just be a simple increase in mental strength, but there's a high probability that some kind of magical ability will be awakened.

For example, the Black Dragon Emperor possessed the aura and might of a dragon, and even after being refined into a magical artifact, he could still temporarily elevate Mo Fan's spiritual power to the tenth realm.

The influence of an emperor-level soul may be at play here, but even without it, the extraordinary nature of the tenth realm is still evident.

Humans are incapable of crossing the Ninth Realm; this is a conclusion reached by top magical masters in various fields throughout history.

Even the later ancient kings and Khufu did not seem to reach the tenth realm, stopping at the peak of the ninth realm.

This may involve the fundamental question of life. Perhaps those two have reached the level of emperors in strength, but their level of life is not up to par.

Before long, Wang Teng was drawn by a delicious aroma from the table. He immediately came to his senses and saw that the simple two dishes and soup on the table were delicious and visually appealing.

"Hurry up and wash your hands and eat!" Leng Qing rolled her eyes at the guy and said. He was just like Lingling, a glutton waiting to be fed.

Having gained experience in taking care of Lingling, she no longer cared about these things. She was already grateful that Lingling would wait patiently for her meal instead of being woken up.

"Oh~"

Ignoring the enticing aroma, Wang Teng quickly went into the kitchen, washed his hands, and then skillfully filled a bowl with rice.

"Is this stir-fried winter bamboo shoots with pork?"

He picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. The novelty instantly won over his taste buds, and he couldn't help but praise Leng Qing: "So delicious!"

"I cooked it according to your usual taste. As long as you can eat it, it's fine," Leng Qing said with a smile. It seems that Wang Teng is easier to take care of than Lingling. Little Lingling is a bit too picky about food.

Many of the dishes she cooked were disliked by Lingling. One minute she wouldn't eat this, and the next minute she wouldn't eat that, which gave her a terrible headache.

Wang Teng ate two bowls of rice and all the dishes by the end of lunch, even finishing the soup.

Leng Qing was even more satisfied and even took care of the subsequent dishwashing. Anyway, she didn't think it was any trouble. She had already done the cooking, so this little bit wouldn't make a difference.

Wang Teng returned to his life as a master. Leng Qing was almost as good as Tang Yue. She truly deserved to be the most popular judge, capable of capturing criminals and cooking meals. She was practically omnipotent.

"I think it's necessary to provide you with more protection!"

Wang Teng thought for a moment. Such a good woman is hard to find, so he had to ensure her safety.

"What are you doing?" Leng Qing asked, taking off her apron with a puzzled look on her face.

Wang Teng certainly couldn't voice his true thoughts, but he could phrase it differently: "Today in the small conference room, I captured Cardinal Jiuying of the Black Vatican!"

"That's how the 10 contribution points came about. After the interrogation, we'll probably contact the Supreme Court to make a simultaneous arrest."

"I think to prevent you from doing something desperate later, I need to buy you a top-tier defensive armor magic item."

"Just buy that Scorpion Demon Armor, which is at the peak of the Monarch level. That thing is quite durable and has the best defensive performance among its peers."

"That thing happens to be earth-attribute, which is a perfect match for your armor/magic weapon. Buy it for me when you buy the book."

Leng Qing was immediately shocked after hearing this; there was a lot of information. Her mind raced, and she quickly sorted it out.

"A cardinal from the Black Vatican was infiltrated among those councilors? And you managed to find him?"

Wang Teng smiled and nodded upon hearing this, but he quickly remembered the confidentiality agreement and said, "Don't spread this around for now. I signed a confidentiality agreement."

"Hiss~ Then why did you tell me?" Leng Qing gasped, astonished by Wang Teng's disregard for the agreement.
