XIAO SHUXIANG'S

243 - Ling Qing Zhu II

".. Your sister's.. Don't tell me his uncle is-"

"You're right,"

Xiao Shuxiang exhaled, he told Ling Lang Tian that such a tradition should be eliminated. Isn't this not good for the women in the 'Ling' family'?

".. Your sister must have someone she likes. You as his brother don't know more about the White Cat?"

"Hmphs. That's the Absolute Rule, if you don't want to marry her, then you have to die at the hands of someone else.."

Ling Lang Tian with his calm face and cold-sounding voice said that Xiao Shuxiang is indeed strong, but this young man in front of him should know that the world is vast.

In the Middle Continent, people as strong as Xiao Shuxiang and Alchemist Zhou Yan were very easy to meet.

Ling Lang Tian might not know. That no matter how strong a human being he was in the Middle Continent, they had never gone to the Demon World and the Elf World like Xiao Shuxiang did.

This Destroying Star could actually just ignore about the ancient traditions of the 'Ling' clan'. However, it would be a problem if Ling Lang Tian recklessly took him away from the Eastern Continent and married himself to Ling Qing Zhu.

".. Look, your sister won't be happy with me. And you know, there's still a lot to do,"

"Did I tell you to marry her now? It's not that easy, you obviously have to go through a lot of exams. But don't you have another job?"

Ling Lang Tian said that Xiao Shuxiang should finish his mission first, only then did he discuss about his problem with Ling Qing Zhu.

?!

Xiao Shuxiang now understood, Ling Lang Tian turned out to be a good young man. He was just being cold and firm on the outside, but he was actually a considerate young man. Not just the White Cat, but to her as well.

".. Is this also your reason for delaying going to the Middle Continent?"

"If I leave, the report about my uncle's death will reach them. And you can think for yourself what happens next,"

Xiao Shuxiang nodded, he knew the 'Ling' clan was inhabited by troublesome people.

He did not know how strong the 'Ling' clan was right now, and although Xiao Shuxiang was able to deal with them, yet he had determined that he would live this life better.

"Now I know what to do. Discussion with your clan's strange rules I'll postpone first,"

"As far as you. But you better know one thing. From now on you are my brother's 'Protective Guardian', many people will be aiming for your life from now on,"

Ling Lang Tian did not want to say many things, Xiao Shuxiang would know by himself later. He said he would continue his work, so Xiao Shuxiang should leave if he did not intend to help.

"Well, I don't want to help you. Much better for me to spend time with my best friend, come on Lan'Er.."

Ling Lang Tian snorted as he saw Xiao Shuxiang embrace Lan Guan Zhi and invite him away. He felt he had to burn a lot of incense and prayed that his sister would not marry a strange young man like Xiao Shuxiang.

"Take me off,"

"Buddy, are you upset? Since then you've only listened to me and the White Cat's brother talk. Are you jealous, hm? What if we elope?"

Lan Guan Zhi flicked his friend's forehead. He was still a normal man, being offered ten people Xiao Shuxiang would not even set himself on a deviant path.

"You're a disgrace,"

"I'll just propose, not force you to elope with me. But Lan'Er, is my dress a little late? We're really like a forbidden couple.."

"Why do you realize now?"

Lan Guan Zhi exhaled softly, he asked Xiao Shuxiang to release his embrace. It was unexpected, his friend turned out to realize that all this time his jokes had been very late.

Elsewhere, in a special tent section reserved for cooks, Ling Qing Zhu was helping to clean the fish.

He was together with Yi Wen, Zhi Shu, and several girls from other sects.

Ling Qing Zhu's ability to process cooking ingredients had already begun to show, the way he sliced chicken and fish was similar to the one taught by Xiao Shuxiang.

Only, his knowledge of spices was still too blunt. Not wanting to mess up the cuisine that has been painstakingly made, finally the business of including spices is given to the expert.

This food is devoted by ordinary humans and warriors who are unable to use Qi as a substitute for body energy.

The little survivors also did not stay silent, they formed small groups and went to some ruins of buildings to look for objects that could still be saved.

There was actually a problem regarding their cooking ingredients. Although today it can be said that these foods can fill the stomachs of ordinary humans and warriors, but they are worried that they cannot do the same tomorrow.

To the Demonic Beast himself.. You could say they have a lot of food. There were many dead farm animals as well as their own people, it was enough to fill their stomachs before returning to work.

Xiao Shuxiang and Lan Guan Zhi were now where the food was served. Both of them clearly knew the tribulation they would face.

Lan Guan Zhi inspected the remaining cooking ingredients, while Xiao Shuxiang helped out a little. She had not done this for a long time, her cooking skills had to be continuously honed in order to get better.

The presence of Xiao Shuxiang clearly made a meaningful change. The cuisine is very delicious and also has the property of getting rid of the feeling of fatigue, it can even be felt from the aroma alone.

..

Yi Wen and Zhi Shu were glad his brother had woken up. The two even scramble to become Xiao Shuxiang's cooking assistant, though Ling Qing Zhu is eventually chosen.

The younger brother of Ling Lang Tian was able to match the speed of Xiao Shuxiang in chopping vegetables.

The cooperation of the two made anyone who saw it amazed. Yi Wen and Zhi Shu were somehow like getting a new rival.

"You seem to have started great,"

"Mrs,"

Ling Qing Zhu nodded, he had indeed learned a lot. Not only to Xiao Shuxiang, but to Grandma Nian and the women who were here.

Xiao Shuxiang was in disbelief, so he took the carrots and radishes. His right hand held a carrot, while his left hand held a radish.

"Where are these two vegetables, which are carrots?"

The test, but Ling Qing Zhu had already tried to remember it. He then said the vegetable in Xiao Shuxiang's right hand was a carrot.

"Good, now close your eyes,"

!!

Xiao Shuxiang slowly tapped Ling Qing Zhu's head with a turnip as this girl instead glared when asked to close her eyes.

"Let's close your eyes, quickly,"

Ling Qing Zhu according. If he managed to guess the next one, this young man in front of him would not call it crummy and White Cat Again.

Xiao Shuxiang took out a silver carrot from within his Spatial Ring and then asked Ling Qing Zhu to open his eyes.

"What is the name of this vegetable?"

"Cart."

Ling Qing Zhu replied steadily, he got a rapeseed knock on the forehead by Xiao Shuxiang. The young man in front of him explained that in his hand was a carrot.

".. You still need to learn again. Do you know the name of this vegetable?"

"Crobor. green leaves"

Xiao Shuxiang blinked a few times, he could not believe Ling Qing Zhu would give such a ridiculous answer. He said that the vegetable in his hand was mustard.

".. Tsk tsk, danger.. You can make me eat grass someday. Study again,"

Xiao Shuxiang went back to chopping vegetables. What he had done to Ling Qing Zhu earlier became entertainment for the women who saw them.

Yi Wen and Zhi Shu themselves had just learned that Ling Qing Zhu's ability in remembering kitchen herbs as well as vegetable names was at number one.

Xiao Shuxiang while doing his job, he also thought about how to replenish the groceries to make it full again.

His Spiritual Bracelet only had herbs, and he did not want to cultivate those plants for these people. The help he gave was already too much, after all his herbs were extremely valuable.

".. Looks like I'm going to uncle's,"
