Chapter 197: Chapter 197: Preparing to Cast the Net 2
The delightful aroma gradually spread. After the meat strips changed color, a layer of salt was sprinkled, followed by mushroom strips and continuous stir-frying.
Finally, she scooped several spoons of bone soup into the pot, enabling a cloud of white smoke to rise with a ’sizzle.’ A thin layer of pale yellow grease floated on the milky white soup. The meat strips and mushroom strips bobbed about, whetting everyone’s appetite.
After the soup started to boil, she put all the noodles into the pot and covered it to simmer.
Watching Su Tang’s smooth, flowing movements, Yadang could not help but sigh, "This Soft Fruit is really a gem, not only does it provide us with enough energy, but it’s also very filling. Most importantly, it can be used to make a variety of delicious dishes!"
In the middle of his speech, he glared at Gaiyin, annoyed, "Sigh! My wonderful sister! Some people are just too lucky!"
Gaiyin, aka ’some people’:...
After a little while, the scent of the noodles spread out. The two playful cubs in the cave halted their play, squatting side by side in front of the stove, their eyes riveted on Su Tang.
Su Tang patted Gaiyin’s shoulder, gave him a smile, and said nothing.
Understanding her expressively, Gaiyin conjured two large golden bowls and placed them beside the stove.
Su Tang gave him an appreciative look, then picked up a large spoon, and under the expectant eyes of the two cubs, filled the bowls for them.
"It’s a bit hot, so wait a bit before you eat it, be good~"
Patting Yadang’s head, she gave a light smile and turned around to handle the remaining ingredients.
Gaiyin and Yadang exchanged an understanding glance.
Yadang was the first to stand up and say, "Su, it seems we’re short of meat, Gaiyin and I will go fetch some more."
Su Tang nodded indifferently, gesturing dismissively, "Okay, you go ahead, as long as Nebu is here to help me."
Gaiyin nodded, glanced at the excited Yadang squatting beside the large golden bowl, and said with some displeasure, "Don’t just think about eating, take care of your sister-in-law."
With that, he and Yadang left the small cave.
Yadang: ???
...
Ever since Su Tang unlocked her cooking skills, her daily activities had involved teaching the Beastmen. Their most fervent activity other than practicing their abilities was learning to prepare delicious meals.
Thus every mealtimes, all sorts of delicious scents would waft out from the small cave and fill every corner, causing one’s mouth to water.
The two men arrived at the place where the ingredients were stored. Because it had been told clearly beforehand, there was no one guarding it.
Gaiyin had also told everyone to eat openly because they would be leaving early the next day, so there were not many ingredients left.
Yadang scanned the place, finally resting his gaze on Gaiyin, and asked in a low voice, "Is there anything unusual?"
Gaiyin shook his head.
Yadang furrowed his brow, rubbing his chin, "Theoretically, low-ranked warriors can’t hide their Qi in front of higher-ranked warriors. But after you sensed his Primordial Power, you lost track of him unless..."
Gaiyin filled in the blank, "Unless he’s a warrior of the same rank as me..."
"Yes, that’s right, unless he is of the same rank as you. But have you thought about it, there are no basic cultivation methods in this wilderness. Lini increased his ranks at the Ten Thousands Beast Country, and you, if it wasn’t for Su Tang, you too wouldn’t have been able to increase your ranks, so I’m sure, unless he’s a Beastman from the Zhaoying Tribe, it’s impossible for him to be of the same rank as you!"
Hearing this, Gaiyin couldn’t help but crease his brow.
