Douluo Dalu: The Holy Evil Emperor

He had basically eaten up the corpse of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

It was also because there was enough meat in the bear carcass that his barbecue skills improved by leaps and bounds. Compared to the time when he grilled the grilled pork belly for Beibei and it ended up being half-cooked or burnt, he can now be considered a barbecue master.

"This is the last piece. After eating this one, only the bear paw will be left." Ye Qing smacked his lips, cut the bear leg meat into strips, skewered them with bamboo sticks, and started to cook for himself.

As for the barbecue method, it is naturally to learn from the method that Huo Yuhao used in the original novel to deal with the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

First bake it half-cooked, then apply egg white, and stir it slightly over the fire to let the egg white lock the aroma of the meat, and finally dip it in the sauce and eat.

When Ye Qing first made this dish, it was really a torment for him because it was difficult to control the heat and he often overcooked the meat. Now, there is basically no problem with it, and when paired with the dipping sauce he made, it is a delicacy.

However, just as Ye Qing was enjoying the food, subtle footsteps were heard not far from him.

Then, a clear and pleasant female voice sounded.

“It smells so good~”

Hearing these three words, Ye Qing's heart skipped a beat and he immediately broke out in a sweat.

"It's broken. Could it be that the dog chain has found the door?"

This familiar tone, this familiar cry, and this familiar place and plot, aren’t these the scenes that happened when Huo Yuhao first met Tang Ya?

The sound of brisk footsteps gradually approached, and then a figure as nimble as a butterfly walked out from the path that Ye Qing had opened, and its bright eyes focused on Ye Qing who was barbecuing by the river.

She was a girl who looked about thirteen or fourteen, with fair and delicate skin. She wore a headband inlaid with colorful gems. Her long golden hair except for her bangs was combed behind her back. Her waist-length hair looked particularly smooth. Her sky-blue eyes were clear and her delicate facial features were somewhat noble.

"Noble... a bit like Xu Jiujiu." Ye Qing looked at the girl thoughtfully, then turned around and continued grilling.

It is impossible for a royal princess like this to go out without a guardian. Although Xu Jiujiu behaves quite normally in the original novel and her mind and values ​​are fine, who knows what she is like in private.

The most important thing is that the way she appeared really made Ye Qing feel a little creepy.

The other dog chain has turned into a dragon-binding rope, which has tied up the unlucky child Beibei into a monkey. Ye Qing now feels like he has PTSD whenever he sees these beauties with names and surnames in the original novel.

It's not his fault that he has paranoid delusions, it's just that Tang San is completely inhuman.

Unless it only enters the body and not life.

"Your Highness, be careful, this boy is not simple." Just as the girl wanted to touch Ye Qing, a subtle voice sounded in her ears.

Yes, just as Ye Qing guessed, this girl was none other than the youngest sister of Xingluo Emperor Xu Jiawei, the little princess of the current Xingluo royal family, Xu Jiujiu. The person who secretly conveyed the message to her was her guardian, Nebula Douluo Manyi.

If you call it a coincidence, it is really a coincidence. Xu Jiujiu rarely leaves Xingluo City, but this time she broke through to the Soul Sect level and just came back from outside to obtain a soul ring.

The half month of hunting souls in the Star Dou Great Forest was too depressing. Xu Jiujiu didn't want to go directly back to the palace, which seemed magnificent but was actually full of intrigue. Instead, she chose to let Manyi put her down and slowly walk back to Xingluo City.

Anyway, it was only about ten miles away, which was not far for a Soul Sect member, so Manyi agreed to her request to relax.

Then she smelled the aroma of Ye Qing's barbecue.

This is the meat of a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, paired with cumin garlic sauce and other high-tech condiments that do not exist on Douluo Continent. Soul masters, whose five senses are much sharper than those of ordinary people, can naturally smell it easily.

Xu Jiujiu swallowed softly. As a princess of the royal family, she had eaten almost all kinds of delicacies from land and sea since she was a child, but she had never smelled such a delicious smell.

Of course, the more important thing is that ever since she approached Ye Qing, her ultimate talent in the dark form, the Darkness of the Abyss, has been quietly taking effect.

Manyi is a Titled Douluo and is not so easily affected, but it is different for Xu Jiujiu. The darkness of the abyss that is most likely to arouse her inner desires is first triggered by her stomach, which has not been satisfied for more than ten days because of hunting souls.

She could even feel her stomach rebelling.

"Grandma Manyi, it's okay. As long as you are here, nothing will be a problem." Xu Jiujiu said in a low voice, his lips moving.

Ye Qing, who was barbecuing, twitched his eyelids. The voice that Xu Jiujiu thought only Manyi could hear was also heard by him. And Xu Jiujiu's address to Manyi also confirmed his previous guess.

"I didn't expect it was really her. I can try to buy the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife directly from her." Ye Qing looked at the skewers of meat in his hand and gradually fell into thought.

Chapter 62: She is Shockingly Rational (Please Order First!)

Due to the effect of the Darkness of the Abyss, the unaware Xu Jiujiu only felt that the glutton in his stomach was constantly teased. Looking at the greasy and fragrant Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear barbecue in Ye Qing's hand, he had an urge to grab it and eat it.

But she is a royal princess after all, and the education she received from childhood does not allow her to do anything that would damage her image.

"Hello, may I ask...can you sell me some of this barbecue?" Xu Jiujiu tucked the strands of hair behind her ears in a dignified manner, and a friendly smile appeared on her pretty fair face.

"I can sell it to you, of course. But let me tell you first, this meat comes from a 20,000-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, so the price will be a little bit more expensive." Ye Qing said with a smile, continuing to grill the meat with his left hand, and making a gesture with his right hand that could make the cosmic stick red-hot and furious.

We are not related or familiar with each other, and we just met by chance. If I say I will treat her to a meal for free, it will seem like I am being pretentious. Since she wants to buy it, then let her pay.

Sometimes you don’t need to be overly attentive to get closer to others, because they don’t need that at all. It is better to give them a better impression, which will be conducive to the subsequent conversation.

Sure enough, seeing that Ye Qing did not use the barbecue as an excuse to try to establish a relationship with him, the smile on Xu Jiujiu's face became much more sincere.

As a princess of the royal family and Xu Jiawei's favorite sister, there were countless people who wanted to build a relationship with her and take the opportunity to get close to Xu Jiawei's nobility since she was a child.

She had long been tired of this feeling, and that was why she was unwilling to return to the palace so soon.

Compared to owing favors to others for a meal for no reason, and having a relationship with Ye Qing for no reason, she would rather use something as meaningless as money to cut off those boring relationships.

If Ye Qing had just said that he would treat her to a meal for free, then no matter how uncontrollable her appetite was, she would have turned around and left.

It’s just a meal. Xingluo City is just a few steps away. At worst, I can go back and eat.

On the contrary, it was Ye Qing's frankness that allowed her to sit next to Ye Qing very naturally. She didn't care whether her luxurious long dress would get dirty. After gathering the hem of her skirt, she sat down on a stone beside Ye Qing in a dignified posture.

Since she would pay for the meal, she felt at ease eating it.

It's just money, no big deal.

"The meat of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear? Then I must try it. As for the money, I will pay." Xu Jiujiu looked at Ye Qing with a smile. The more he looked at him, the more he liked this man.

That handsome face with a bit of evil and arrogance, and those seemingly casual but unrestrained gestures, all made Xu Jiujiu see a different side of men.

(The Darkness of the Abyss: It’s all my fault C)

Ye Qing nodded, finished the skewers in his hand, took out bottles and jars from the soul guide and started to tinker with the dipping sauce. Then he brought a bowl of sauce mixed with soy sauce, oyster sauce, minced garlic, chili and other condiments to Xu Jiujiu.

Yes, it's the same one he uses.

Seeing Xu Jiujiu taking the dipping sauce with curiosity, Ye Qing said casually, "This is a seasoning I developed myself. You can test whether it is poisonous. After all, when you are out, you have to confirm whether the food given by others is safe. I don't mind."

After hearing this, Xu Jiujiu generously took out a few gadgets and started testing them, without any intention of avoiding Ye Qing.

Because what he said was right. When you go out, you have to make sure that anything given by others is safe. Ye Qing has already made it clear, so why should she hide it?

She was testing while Ye Qing was grilling the meat.

Not long after, Xu Jiujiu put away those little gadgets, and when he looked up, he saw a white hand in front of him, holding a bunch of fragrant meat skewers.

"Give."

"Thank you." Xu Jiujiu first said thank you and then took the skewers.

Xu Jiujiu's eating style was really elegant. He chewed neither hurriedly nor slowly, making almost no sound.

Ye Qing just admired it for a while and then lowered his head to continue grilling. Everyone likes to appreciate beautiful things, let alone a beautiful woman like Xu Jiujiu whose every move exudes perfection.

Although he was not short of money and had no need to work as a chef, the same thing still applies: if he could use a tiny bit of time to establish a relationship with Xu Jiujiu and pave the way for himself to buy the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife, why not do it?

After this brief meeting, I believe that if I really go to the Starlight Auction House, she will make things convenient for me.

Just like Xu Jiujiu's mentality, one is buying and the other is selling, I just went to her to buy the Soul Devouring Carving Knife, and I paid the right amount. It was the same as when she went to me to buy food and paid me.

In this way, one of them was busy grilling the meat while the other was enjoying this outdoor meal which was a feast for the taste buds.

It was not until Ye Qing had completely used up the last piece of Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear meat that he stopped after a long time, feeling unsatisfied. He took out a tissue from the soul guide and wiped his mouth.

"I haven't eaten such delicious food for a long time." Xu Jiujiu looked down at the large bunch of diabolo sticks at his feet, looking a little embarrassed.

Her belly, which was covered by her slim long skirt, was slightly bulging due to eating, which showed that she really enjoyed her meal this time.

"I am also very happy that the food I make is recognized by other people." Ye Qing smiled gently.

Xu Jiujiu looked at Ye Qing deeply, reached out and placed a gold card on the stone next to her, then stood up and adjusted her skirt.

"You are an interesting person. I hope we can have the chance to meet again."

Ignoring Xu Jiujiu who turned and left, Ye Qing raised his hand and used his soul power to suck the gold card into his hand. The front of the gold card was inlaid with gems to look like a crown, and the back was a number.

five.

This gold card is a savings card exclusively used by the royal family of the Xingluo Empire. The minimum deposit amount is in ten thousand. The gold color represents the Gold Soul Coin, and the number five means that 50,000 Gold Soul Coins are stored on this card.

As long as you hold this card, you can withdraw money from the card at any bank on the mainland.

Just for one meal, Xu Jiujiu spent 50,000 gold soul coins. While eating, she indeed felt the special texture of the meat and the energy constantly surging in her lower abdomen.

Xu Jiujiu, who has eaten countless delicacies, can tell the quality of meat with just one bite. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear is a top-level powerful soul beast, and its age is as high as 20,000 years. Even Xu Jiujiu has only eaten food of this level a few times.

That's why she left such a large sum of money.

Firstly, because this meal was worth so much in her eyes, and secondly, it was also to follow her principle that eating was eating, and after paying, it was all over.

"Haha, interesting princess."

Chapter 63: As soon as I entered the city, I saw Huo Gua being beaten (Please order first!)

When they were about to enter the dense forest, Xu Jiujiu turned around and looked deeply at Ye Qing's back.

Just as she said, she felt that Ye Qing was a really interesting person. He kept a safe distance from her from beginning to end. He was completely different from the people she had met in the past.

But she would not pay too much attention to Ye Qing. She was the princess of the empire, high above everyone else. If she had the chance to meet this very interesting person again, she would be happy to ask his name and make friends with him.

As for now.

No need.

If we only met once, these things would be unnecessary.

"Haha, I hope to see you again. After all, you are really interesting." Xu Jiujiu chuckled and walked towards Xingluo City with brisk steps.

After finishing her meal, she walked even less hurriedly, but this delicious lunch really made her feel much better. A happy smile graced her lips and she hummed a pleasant tune.

……

After a long time, Ye Qing also smiled and gave the same evaluation as her.

That's what makes this princess so interesting.

He and Xu Jiujiu had only been in contact for a short hour, but the rationality that Ye Qing observed in Xu Jiujiu was something that no other woman in Douluo Continent possessed. Even Zhang Lexuan could not be as clear-headed as Xu Jiujiu.

This is just too weird.

As the place where the god of love fell, Douluo Continent has long been cursed. Almost everyone here is love-brained. Now, suddenly Xu Jiujiu, a normal woman who has not had any illness, appears.

Wow cool wow cool, this is really rare.

Compared to Princess Xue Lingxun of the Douluo Empire who ran away from home and gave birth to Xu Sanshi in the Xuanming Sect, Xu Jiujiu is so rational that he doesn't seem like a person from the Douluo Continent at all. The style is too severe.

But that's what makes it interesting, isn't it?

"I don't know, for someone as rational as you, how will the darkness of the abyss lead you? It's really exciting." Ye Qing turned his head to look in the direction where Xu Jiujiu left, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and after extinguishing the fire, he went towards Xingluo City along another road.

Meeting Xu Jiujiu could be said to be a pleasant surprise, and establishing a good relationship with her could only be considered a casual move. Even if he hadn't met her, he would still go to the Starlight Auction House.

The original novel clearly stated that the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife had long been purchased by the Starlight Auction House, and it had been unsold several times until the Starlight Auction House used the purchase price of 100,000 gold soul coins as the starting price.

It’s really impossible to sell it!

So at this time, the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife was obviously still kept in the Starlight Auction House, but no one dared to buy it, so it has been gathering dust.

Since he was not sure how many times the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife had failed to sell and what its current auction price was, Ye Qing asked Ye Feng for 500,000 gold soul coins just to be on the safe side.

Anyway, it is definitely enough.

This kind of evil thing can never be that expensive.

Only I, the pure and innocent Ye Qingsama, can tame this great evil!

Get ready to catch monsters!

……

Since Xu Jiujiu was walking slowly towards Xingluo City, Ye Qing arrived at Xingluo City earlier than her. After paying two silver soul coins as an entrance fee to the soldiers guarding the city, Ye Qing walked into the imperial capital of the Xingluo Empire.

To be honest, it feels similar to Shrek City.

As someone who graduated from Shrek Academy, Ye Qing would not look around here and there like a country bumpkin entering a city just because Xingluo City is big enough, because he had already seen everything he should see in Shrek City.

He has no interest in watching things he shouldn't watch for the time being.
