Chapter 228: Chapter 227 Tea Water

"Master, please enjoy your tea." The next second, a teapot appeared, followed by a cup bouncing its way towards her. Close behind was a relatively tall table. Once the table halted before Xia Yue, the teapot and teacup hopped onto it.

"Whoa!" Xia Yue jumped in surprise.

The teapot then began pouring tea into the cup right in front of them.

"Master, please enjoy your tea." The cup and teapot cheerfully beckoned to Xia Yue.

Xia Yue swallowed and turned to the system. She asked in a low whisper, "Is this water really safe to drink? Something feels odd about it."

"[Rest assured, it’s safe to drink. Not to mention because of the magical blessing, this water is even safer than your normal water.]" The system reassured her with a nod.

"But they appear alive; it feels really strange to drink from them." Xia Yue was still hesitant.

"[Don’t worry. When you touch the cup or pour tea from the pot, they will stop moving—just like ordinary teapots and cups.]" The system promised with a roll of its eyes.

Xia Yue looked at the teapot and cup before her, then cautiously reached out and touched the cup. The comic-like eyes and mouth instantly vanished.

She picked it up, examined it carefully, and then handed it to Yan Mo.

"Do you think it’s just like any ordinary teacup?" Xia Yue blinked at him with curiosity.

After a close examination, Yan Mo replied, "It looks just like an ordinary one, very different from its animated state."

"Then I’m relieved." Xia Yue nodded and immediately took a sip of the tea from the cup.

"This tea is not bad." Xia Yue’s eyes lit up. She turned to Yan Mo and asked, "Would you like a sip? We’ve been walking for quite a while. Are you thirsty?"

"Sure," Yan Mo was indeed a little parched.

"Dragon Lord Ao Ye, would you want some? How about you, Xuanxuan?" Xia Yue turned to ask Dragon Lord Ao Ye and the Spiritual Cat.

"I’ll have a cup." Dragon Lord Ao Ye nodded.

"Master, I want some." The Spiritual Cat nodded at Xia Yue and meowed in response.

"[How could you forget to ask me?]" The system complained.

"You’re not a physical entity, you don’t get thirsty." Xia Yue replied matter-of-factly.

"[I don’t care, I still want some.]" The system huffed indignantly.

"Four more cups of tea, please." Xia Yue called out.

"Coming right up, Master." Four voices echoed in unison. In the next second, four more cups hopped their way to the table.

The teapot promptly filled each cup with tea.

"Please help yourselves." The same chorus resounded once more.

"Let’s drink." Xia Yue addressed them all.

"[Help me, the table’s too small for us.]" The system complained while eyeing the size of the table.

"Alright then." After Xia Yue finished her own cup of tea and set it down, she picked up two more cups and placed them before the system and the Spiritual Cat.

Xia Yue asked Dragon Lord Ao Ye, "Do you want to leap up and drink, or should I lift you up or bring the cup down to you?"

"I’ll manage on my own." Dragon Lord Ao Ye replied. The next moment everyone saw him leap onto the table and start drinking from the last cup of tea.

"This tea is indeed good." Yan Mo gave it a sip and announced his verdict.

Coming from a family of tea connoisseurs, he had tasted some fine teas in his time. Although this was black tea, it didn’t stop him from gauging its quality.

One could say this tea was top-notch.

"Where did this tea come from?" Xia Yue curiously asked. Considering the castle was just built, and she hadn’t exchanged anything yet, she found the origin of the tea quite puzzling.

"[The castle automatically provides it. There should be about 500 grams. Once you’ve finished this, you’ll have to prepare it yourself.]" The system informed her, lifting its head after finishing the tea.
