Chapter 499: Chapter 500: A Taste of Deliciousness
The Beastmen working outside smelled an unusual fragrance, one they had never experienced before.
Yan Li was moving the chunks of soil and rocks dug up by the tribe members to open ground, all while calling out loudly to the Beastmen nearby.
"It must be our Saint Lady making some delicious food again, we are in for a treat~"
The neighboring Beastmen nodded in agreement, "Yeah, our Saint Lady is beautiful and kind, she is a good female!"
"It’s a good thing we joined the Taoyuan Clan, otherwise where would we get to eat delicious food and live in a warm house!"
"Hahaha, if anyone told me in the past that I would have full meals and warm clothes in winter, I would not believe them and might even punch them out of annoyance!"
"Yeah, totally!"
"But is that the most important thing?! The most important thing is that I awakened a superpower since joining the Taoyuan Clan!! This is something I never dared to dream of!"
The one who spoke was also a Beastman from the Piercing Stone Tribe, who had already celebrated five major seasons.
Before coming to Taoyuan, he was just an insignificant figure in the Piercing Stone Tribe, with average hunting skills and not as intimidating as the other Beastmen. The young females in the tribe didn’t pay him any attention at all.
After coming to Taoyuan, he was the first to join the City Defense Team, trusted by the Taoyuan chieftain and the Saint Lady. He began to practice the Body Forging Technique and finally awakened his Bloodline Power and superpower to become a respected Divine Brave Warrior!
The Beastman from the Piercing Stone Tribe was clear in his heart that everything he has today is thanks to the Chieftain and the Saint Lady of the Taoyuan Clan.
He had no grand repayments to offer, only the heartfelt devotion which filled him with the resolute determination to loyally serve and resolutely defend Taoyuan to the death.
The words of this Beastman resonated with many others, leading them to have a lively discussion whilst vigorously working.
When Aunt Hongguo came out holding several pots of freshly fried fish balls, she couldn’t help but smile at the sight of the hardworking people.
"You’ve all worked hard, the Saint Lady and her team made a new dish. It’s fried fish balls, come and have a taste!"
In a moment, the Beastmen of the Piercing Stone Tribe in the pit transformed into human form and eagerly climbed up, not even bothering to wash their hands, and made a beeline for the females holding the fish balls.
Aunt Hongguo, watching their muddy claws reaching for fish balls, couldn’t help but twitch her mouth.
The surface of the fish balls was golden and crispy, and biting lightly into one revealed a tender and slippery inside. Unlike other meats, fish is naturally tender and delicious. The fish balls have no bones, so they can be eaten with abandon, it’s a truly wonderful feeling! 𝓷ℴ𝓋𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝒸𝓸𝓶
The tribe members were all savoring each bite, the bowls of fish balls quickly emptied out, but the delicious taste was still lingering in their mouths!
Yan Li was salivating at the empty porcelain bowl, "Aunt Hongguo, I only had five fish balls, why are they finished?"
A nearby tribe member exclaimed, "I only had three! And you actually ate five!"
"I only managed to grab two! Did I say anything?"
Yan Li huffed, "Is it my fault that you guys are so slow and can’t grab any fish balls?"
The rest of the group was left with itchy teeth at Yan Li’s smug tone. However, he was right, you eat as many as you grab, and that’s a skill!
Aunt Hongguo shook her head with a smile, "There are no more fish balls. The cafeteria only has the Saint Lady and a few young females working. The ones just now took them a long time to make. There’s nothing we can do, our tribe is just too large."
