Chapter 1326 - 1322: Rest and Recovery
Er Dan howled intensely, but showed no emotional fluctuation—it was pure acting.
Yun Ran rolled her eyes directly: "Do you think I want to keep you? It’s only because you’ve yet to mature, and Xuan Chu needs to stay by my side for three years. Otherwise, I’d have kicked you out long ago!"
Anyway, as soon as anything related to the Heavenly Dao is mentioned, Yun Ran feels unlucky whenever she’s involved.
Xuan Chu even went through numerous tests and earned Junior Master’s approval before earning Yun Ran’s trust.
As for Er Dan, from the start, Yun Ran wanted to roast and eat it. If not for its hard shell, it would have become Yun Ran’s nourishment long ago.
Er Dan initially thought its act of misery would at least earn Yun Ran’s guilt and compensation or a few kind words.
But really, this is it?
The howling stopped immediately—the effort was exhausting and had no effect, better to just rest well.
With Er Dan’s Oscar-winning acting skills, even Ginsengfruit couldn’t help being amazed.
Such a short time since hatching, and it knows how to act and when to stop—it’s impressive!
"If this fellow transforms in the future, it might just become an Oscar winner."
"Whether it’ll be an Oscar winner, I don’t know, but it’s bound to cause headaches for those in Heavenly Dao Village!"
Yun Ran now just wants to figure out how to resolve her life chart, which is rejected by the Heavenly Dao, so she can finally become a carefree boss.
As for Er Dan, once they return, there might not be many opportunities to meet in the future.
When she dies, Er Dan’s transformation progress bar might not even reach one-tenth.
By then, all troubles will have nothing to do with her.
Yun Ran swallowed several pills containing Dragon Spirit Blood and finally felt completely refreshed.
After changing into a new black robe, Yun Ran plans to head back to Mei City to reunite with Dragon Spirit.
Previously, Yun Ran had Dragon Spirit stay there just to buy some time.
They’ve unlocked half of the Heavenly Book Fragment, and aren’t in a hurry for the remainder.
"Once I’m well-rested, we’ll head back!"
Ginsengfruit promptly nodded and changed into a new outfit, discarding the clothes torn by Gang Wind next to him.
"Host, rest for a while, I’ll go fetch water and catch some wild game."
No need to rough it when there’s time, things won’t be so sloppy now.
Yun Ran waved her hand, signaling Ginsengfruit to make arrangements.
After Ginsengfruit left, Yun Ran found a shady spot, took out her folding chair, and fell asleep quickly without any guard.
In such wild places, theoretically, there should be some danger.
But from the moment Yun Ran lay down, she quickly fell into deep sleep, without a hint of vigilance.
Er Dan soon fell asleep too, making snoring sounds.
A gentle breeze was all one could hear, with no danger, and not a single larger or threatening plant or animal in sight nearby.
This all credited to the cave’s purifying power, which swallowed all danger in a dominant manner.
Before long, Ginsengfruit returned carrying a large bucket brimming with clear spring water.
A long rope hung from his waist, trailing several pieces of wild game.
Noticing Yun Ran asleep, Ginsengfruit instinctively lightened his movements.
Initially planning to gather some firewood nearby, he decided against it to avoid disturbing Yun Ran, and headed further away after setting down the bucket.
Yun Ran was awakened by the tempting aroma—her sleep had been deep, and although short, it restored much of her energy.
Er Dan had already stationed itself by the fire.
Unlike other animals that fear firelight, Er Dan eagerly approached, flapping its wings to fan the fire, looking very diligent.
"Alright, stop crowding it, your drool is about to drip on it!"
Ginsengfruit’s culinary skills, honed through training and data refinement, were now at a state banquet level.
Despite Ginsengfruit’s disdain, Er Dan ignored it, fixating solely on the rabbit being seasoned and turned.
If Er Dan had hands, Yun Ran had no doubt it would reach out to grab the food by now.
Yun Ran woke but didn’t move, remaining on her lounger, watching the scene.
Ginsengfruit instantly felt Yun Ran’s gaze and quickly looked over.
"Host, alright, I’ve heated water; do you want to freshen up? It seems this place’s Spiritual Spring Water has special effects!"
On Ginsengfruit’s body, there were those whitish marks left by Gang Wind, and he found that the water could slightly reduce those marks.
With that, Ginsengfruit hurriedly stood to bring Yun Ran the warmed spring water.
As Ginsengfruit stood and turned, Er Dan’s paw instantly flickered.
After grabbing the piping hot roast rabbit, its wings simultaneously flapped, and in a blink, it flew onto a straight treetop.
Yun Ran: ...
If people knew Er Dan, this mischievous spirit feared by the Heavenly Dao, under her temporary guardianship, she’d truly lose face.
Such ignominy!
Hearing the commotion, Ginsengfruit turned, nearly dying of anger—the fattest rabbit he had roasted for the host had been taken.
In a fury, Ginsengfruit finally squeezed out: "You’ll pay for this!"
At this moment, Er Dan’s eyes focused solely on the scrumptious roast rabbit; Yun Ran’s embarrassment and Ginsengfruit’s rage had nothing to do with it.
Clearly hefty, Er Dan managed to perch its somewhat chubby figure steadily on the treetop without any wobble.
One bite, and the rabbit’s flavorful juices burst in Er Dan’s mouth—entirely different from the tough roasted meats it previously stole in Moonlight City.
It truly didn’t expect Ginsengfruit had such culinary skills.
Had it known, why did it ever make grass its staple food!!!
