Chapter 515: Chapter 135 Past_1

Looking at the fish in the storage bag, Qi Yuan fell silent.

He picked up the fish, his eyes full of complex emotions.

"After all these years, hasn’t it expired?"

"This guy, he actually left me some fish."

He picked up a piece of fish with his chopsticks, put it in his mouth and chewed slowly, tasting it.

At that moment, a young voice rang in Qi Yuan’s ear.

"Hehe, actually, my name isn’t Wu Shi, I don’t have a name."

"The first time I saw you, I knew we would meet three times."

"Why? Because I didn’t just hear your voice, I heard your heart’s voice too."

The girl’s voice took Qi Yuan back to the recent past, when he saw Wu Shi for the last time, his last meeting with the Mother of No Food.

Her voice was young, just like at their first meeting.

Qi Yuan also had a moment of realization.

No wonder... she seemed odd because she heard his heart’s voice.

So she must have known that they would meet again and she also knew that she would die by the hand of the Sun God in the future.

Qi Yuan ate the fish, and the girl’s endless voice continued to ring out.

"When I first saw you, I was wary, thinking you would eat me, I wronged you."

"But hehe, I wanted to eat you, but I didn’t dare as I was too scared."

The girl rambled on about her past, like writing in a diary, discussing her lonely life.

As Qi Yuan savored the fish, the girl’s voice gradually lost its immaturity and grew more mature.

"The second time I saw you, I was somewhat surprised, because, I could finally eat delicious fish."

"I was really so hungry."

"Compared to eating fish, nothing else matters."

"Your smell was more tempting, I... really wanted to eat you then."

Qi Yuan couldn’t help but remember the second time he saw the Mother of No Food, when she was curled up on the ground in her red dress, pale face, looking at him greedily.

But afterwards, after she finished the fish, her face was cold, and she kept Qi Yuan at a distance.

"So she wanted to eat me then?"

Qi Yuan’s gaze was calm.

From the words of the Mother of No Food, she already knew of the inherent and terrifying nature of the Mother of No Food.

These two horrifying traits were at odds with each other.

No wonder when he met the Mother of No Food, she was strange, as if suppressing something.

What she was suppressing was, her desire to devour his heart.

"We met by chance, you gave me fish to eat, I helped you guard the Heavenly Pillar, that makes us even.

You harbored ill intentions, if I had swallowed you... would that be excessive?"

The Mother of No Food’s tone was somewhat cheery.

But Qi Yuan knew the suppression in her heart.

The desire of the Swallowing Body to swallow was very strong.

Once, the mythical Mother of No Food, was in unbearable pain after eating ordinary fish, shaking as she lay on the ground.

Yet, she was a legend, even when facing the Sun God, her body full of scars, the Mother of No Food never bowed her head or cried out in pain.

However, after just eating a piece of fish, she was in unbearable pain.

"Fortunately, later, I realized that what I had been eating was your... blood."

The Mother of No Food’s voice had a hint of carefreeness.

She seemed to have convinced herself, no longer suppressing her instinct to devour Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan’s gaze was complex: "So, she... could have swallowed me then?"

This whole time, he had been near the Mother of No Food, even though they were separated by time and space, but sometimes, he also felt a faint threat.

He remembered the first time he saw the Mother of No Food.

She was quietly eating fish in front of him.

At that time, the fish had not gone through his blood purification, but the Mother of No Food still enjoyed it.

In the past, he didn’t know why this was?

He thought that the Mother of No Food he saw was not the same person each time.

Now he understood, the Mother of No Food was eating unpurified fish, using this extreme pain to suppress her desire to devour.

Qi Yuan’s emotions were complex.

He never thought that those simple three meetings, without any earth-shattering events, just eating and drinking, talking some idle words.

There was so much hidden behind it all.

"I’ve been wandering around in this world for tens of thousands of years, this place is much more fun than my hometown, and it smells much better..."

The Mother of No Food’s voice was somewhat cheery.

Qi Yuan remained silent.

The Mother of No Food’s childhood was indeed miserable, she was raised like a pet canary, or more like a household item.

Coming to this world, everyone here, like Qi Yuan, had short-sighted visions, oblivious to the two terrifying traits of the Mother of No Food.

Everyone’s eyes on her were quite normal.

Her life here was happier than at her old home, which was also normal.

The tens of thousands of years she lived here were the happiest time of her life.

When he ate the last piece of fish, a voice rang out in Qi Yuan’s ear.

"Now that we’ve met, how about we make a deal?"

"I’ll help you guard the Heavenly Pillar, and you... help me guard this world."

Qi Yuan ate the last piece of fish.

He recalled, he exchanged a fish for the Mother of No Food’s help to guard the Heavenly Pillar.

Nowadays, the Mother of No Food returned all the fish to him.

After the second meeting, the Mother of No Food realized that the fish she ate contained Qi Yuan’s blood, so she did not eat anymore and left the fish for Qi Yuan.

These fish contained untainted blood.

Having finished eating these fish, Qi Yuan regained his lost blood.

His aura became even more profound.

"Mother of No Food, you’ve lost out," Qi Yuan sighed.

Because, without making a deal with the Mother of No Food, he would have to guard this world anyway because of his game, or guard Qing Shui Village to be precise.
