Chapter 93: This Nine-tailed Fox is Sick

Chapter 93: Chapter 93: This Nine-tailed Fox is Sick

"Divine Gold System, where the hell did you send me!" Xiao Jinsheng grumbled angrily.

She hadn’t cursed at the Divine Gold System that mistook her for a host in a long time.

Little did she know, there was an unidentified object searching for her in the small western-style house on the Mist East.

"What did you say?" Xuan Jiu looked at her puzzled.

He only heard Xiao Jinsheng’s voice, faint as a mosquito’s buzz but judging by her expression, she was cursing pretty harshly.

Xuan Jiu thought of his first encounter with Xiao Jinsheng, immediately on guard: "You’re not secretly cursing me, are you?"

"If you want to think that, I can’t stop you." Xiao Jinsheng said with a smile, spreading her hands.

"You’re something else..." Xuan Jiu had never seen anyone as bold as her.

Holding onto a chicken wing, he chased after Xiao Jinsheng: "Cluck cluck cluck—"

"Are you insane—" The chicken in Xuan Jiu’s grip started pecking at Xiao Jinsheng, and she turned around and ran.

From the first day she met Xuan Jiu, she thought that although this white-haired guy was handsome, he seemed a bit off in the head.

Now that they’ve interacted, it turned out she was right.

The gloom and fear she felt from suspecting the terminal wasn’t something good were completely chased away by Xuan Jiu clucking behind her.

She ran in the courtyard, with Xuan Jiu chasing her, chicken in hand.

Until Xiao Jinsheng dashed into the tea pavilion and hid behind Chen Yunji as if avoiding a ghost: "Don’t come over here!"

"Cluck cluck cluck!" Xuan Jiu, still holding the chicken, rushed into the pavilion.

Chen Yunji frowned slightly, facing Xuan Jiu, he spoke solemnly, "You brought a chicken into my pavilion?"

Xuan Jiu realized his mistake.

He had forgotten that the silver dragon who neither eats nor drinks already hated him for keeping chickens in his courtyard.

"No, I didn’t." Xuan Jiu hurriedly denied.

"I heard a chicken clucking." Chen Yunji said coldly.

"Cluck cluck, that was me." Xuan Jiu explained.

Chen Yunji paused for a moment, finally said two words: "Get out."

"I told you it was me making that noise." Xuan Jiu mumbled, moving towards the kitchen with the chicken’s wing.

Seeing Xuan Jiu leave, and also noting Chen Yunji’s unwelcoming aura, Xiao Jinsheng lightly tiptoed to leave.

"Wait a moment." Chen Yunji suddenly spoke up.

Xiao Jinsheng turned to look at him, hearing Chen Yunji inquire, "Where’s your Beast Husband?"

"Just arrived at Cloud Sky Garden." Xiao Jinsheng had been maintaining Star Map contact with seven men.

"When your Beast Husband arrives, you should leave." Chen Yunji said.

"Of course." Xiao Jinsheng replied.

She truly wasn’t used to being around someone who seemed so cold and heartless.

With a polite departure, she went to the kitchen to find Xuan Jiu.

She had just entered the kitchen when Xuan Jiu handed her a bunch of chicken feathers.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Jinsheng exclaimed loudly.

"Take it to play, you can make a feather shuttlecock to kick around." Xuan Jiu answered as he smeared yellow mud onto a lotus leaf.

Xiao Jinsheng noticed a hint of alcohol smell in the yellow mud and curiously asked, "Are you making Beggar’s Chicken?"

"Let me show you my culinary skills." Xuan Jiu proudly raised his chin, "Not to brag, but you’ll never find another culinary god like me in your life."

Xiao Jinsheng: ...

"Can you share some of that confidence with me?" Xiao Jinsheng said sincerely.

Xuan Jiu sensed her skepticism: "Don’t believe me? Just wait, when it’s done, you’ll be conquered by the flavor."

Xuan Jiu not only required Xiao Jinsheng to taste it but also to observe his preparation process.

He called Xiao Jinsheng to the courtyard, ready to make Beggar’s Chicken in the snow.

The fire that was finally lit was extinguished by the cold wind.

Xuan Jiu lit it again, and it went out again, over and over.

The charcoal on top of the Beggar’s Chicken was put out and reignited, and put out again.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Jinsheng knew the Beggar’s Chicken was a lost cause today.

She took some sweet potatoes out of her space and put them in the fire.

"Why roast sweet potatoes? Just wait a while longer for the chicken." Xuan Jiu took her sweet potatoes out again.

Xiao Jinsheng firmly used a stick to push the sweet potatoes back into the embers: "Stop with the fancy stuff, by the time it’s done, it’ll be dark."

"If you’re hungry, you can have some roasted sweet potatoes." Xiao Jinsheng offered kindly.

Xuan Jiu was stubborn and self-assured about his Beggar’s Chicken: "I only eat meat, not vegetables. Eat sweet potatoes? Impossible!"

Xiao Jinsheng ignored him.

The two sat by the fire, braving the wind and snow, one watching the roasting sweet potatoes, the other watching his Beggar’s Chicken.

The snow stopped and started again, for three cycles.

Seven figures appeared outside the Bamboo Courtyard.

"Your Beast Husband’s here." Xuan Jiu, with his mouth full of roasted sweet potato, said it was delicious, extending a tail to pat Xiao Jinsheng.

Xiao Jinsheng received a Star Map message at the same time, turned around to see Que Zelian and the others already in the courtyard.

With half a sweet potato in hand, she ran towards them.

Not intentionally running towards anyone, because she knew they would make their own efforts.

Sure enough, Xiao Jinsheng only took two steps before being grabbed by Shi Xie.

The remaining six, behind Yu Yunxiao, all glared angrily at Shi Xie.

Ever since Shi Xie successfully signed the Totem Contract with Xiao Jinsheng.

They found that this fish was becoming more and more unapologetic.

Li kicked apart the ice Shi Xie used for a sneak attack, trapping his feet, quickly moved over, and snatched Xiao Jinsheng away.

Mo Jiao’s black mist kicked up a pile of snow, hitting Shi Xie directly.

Su Ye broke free from the ice that trapped him and walked over, knocking Shi Xie aside.

"If you get hurt again, I won’t heal you!" Yu Yunxiao kicked the ice and snow, gold and blue abnormal pupils warning Shi Xie full of caution.

Que Zelian touched Xiao Jinsheng’s reddened cheek, relieved to find it had been warmed by the fire, not frozen red in the snow.

Huaiqing smiled as he brushed off the black ash from Xiao Jinsheng’s nose, noticing the burnt sweet potato in her hand, speaking gently: "Hungry? I caught a rabbit on the way, I’ll roast it for you later."

"Yes, yes." Xiao Jinsheng never refused food made by Huaiqing.

She was happy, but Xuan Jiu, still waiting by the fire for the Beggar’s Chicken, was not happy.

He reminded them, "The Beggar’s Chicken is almost done, can you really eat that much?"

These words instantly attracted the gaze of the other seven men.

Shi Xie’s blue eyes narrowed at Xuan Jiu, and the snowy Bamboo Courtyard was instantly covered in an icy seal.

"You’re that fox disguised as a snow rabbit." Shi Xie spoke dangerously.

"Yes, that’s me, what of it? Want a signature?" Xuan Jiu displayed his roasted sweet potato, shaking his head, "You’ll have to wait for a signature, I’m busy now."

For Xuan Jiu, the perpetrator who kept Xiao Jinsheng from them, the seven men looked at him with hostility.

Seeing the tension rising, Xiao Jinsheng quickly jumped down from Li’s arms, retrieved her roasted sweet potatoes, and handed one to each of them: "You’re all hungry, right? Here, eat this, I roasted them myself."

Yu Yunxiao looked at the blackened half-burnt sweet potato in his hand and silently swallowed back the mocking words he’d been about to say upon hearing that Xiao Jinsheng had roasted it.

"A bit burnt, but it’s still edible." Xiao Jinsheng said with some embarrassment.

Su Ye laughed and replied, "Caramel flavor."

Xiao Jinsheng grinned happily at his words.

Everyone looked at him in surprise.

Had he secretly learned something?

To prevent any fighting, Xiao Jinsheng hastily introduced both sides to each other.

When Chen Yunji appeared, Huaiqing saw him and froze: "Is it you?"
