Chuckling a little, Qingyu said, "Of course, we can. Enter the World Crest and take me with you. Even though I won't be able to touch anything, inside the World Crest I can control the objects and make you your dinner."
Just as Jian Shen was about to agree, Juewang interrupted them.
"Who are you to cook for my, husband? As his wife, I'm going to cook for him!"
"Humph! I don't mind if you want to pretend that you are in a relationship with Jian Shen, but it's useless to try and steal him from me with your cooking. Jian Shen loves the food I make him! Isn't that right?"
Unconsciously looking away from the Myriad God Sword, Jian Shen awkwardly laughed and said, "Maybe we should Juewang a chance a cook, Qingyu. You've been doing it for so long, that you deserve to rest."
The truth, however, was that Jian Shen felt that if he ate Qingyu's sweet food any longer, his palette wouldn't be able to appreciate normal food anymore.
Unlike Qingyu, Juewang could materialize whenever she wanted and wherever she wanted.
Therefore, she told Jian Shen to wait for her, while she flew away into the forest and returned in her human form while dragging a huge dead beast behind her.
Patting the huge dead tiger, Juewang asked Jian Shen with a smile, "How do you like your meat? Rare or crispy?"
Licking his lips in anticipation, because Qingyu never asked him such a question. Jian Shen felt that Juewang knew how to cook food, and he would finally have the chance to eat some proper food.
All of these feelings were only further intensified after he smelled the delicious aroma coming out of the sizzling meat.
Hastily taking the cut up slices of meat which Juewang roasted over flames, Jian Shen took a huge bite of it.
And then, all of his hopes were instantly destroyed.
This was because, Juewang's cooking was just like Qingyu's in a sense.
That is, Qingyu used sugar instead of salt when cooking. While Juewang used too much spices and condiments.
So much, that Jian Shen couldn't even say what the taste inside his mouth was. It was too salty, spicy, sour, and so on. If there was one thing he appreciated about Juewang's cooking, it was the fact that it wasn't sweet.
But, at the end of the day, both of their cooking styles were too extreme!
Unfortunately, Jian Shen couldn't say anything bad about the food, because Juewang showed a sad and teary eyed look when he tried to say something about her food.
Therefore, all he could do was was give Juewang fake praises, and cry on the inside that he would never be able to eat normal food as long as he was with the two of them.
...
After forcing himself to eat everything that Juewang cooked, because just like Qingyu she didn't need to eat, to survive, Jian Shen was pondering if he should learn to cook.
It was then, that Qingyu spoke up.
"Jian Shen, give me the Scarlet Tailed Fox Sword. Once I fuse with it, I upgrade your Bloodline by two levels."
Frowning a little, Jian Shen shared the few thoughts he had regarding it.
"Is that alright? I mean, I already have the Heavenly Dragon's Bloodline. Adding two more Bloodlines would definitely cause some trouble, right? Especially, when one of them is a Yin type Bloodline, the exact opposite of what I possess right now."
"You don't have to worry. The Myriad God Sword, at its peak gave its wielder all the nine Bloodlines. This is because the nine Bloodlines are special, and won't contradict each other. Instead, they will all fuse together and work side by side."
Nodding his head, Jian Shen asked the last question he had.
"Then what about my Heavenly Dragon Bloodline's ability? Will it be affected, after fusing with the other Bloodlines?"
"Not at all. If anything, after you obtain the Ethereal Phoenix Bloodline, due to obtaining a balance of Yin and Yang inside you, Dual Cultivation will yield you with even better results."
"I see."
Absentmindedly nodding his head for a few seconds, Jian Shen brought the Scarlet Tailed Fox Sword out of his World Crest and hastily placed it on the ground.
Because his hands would get scalded if he held it for a long time.
"Your hands won't hurt after I imbue the Scarlet Tailed Fox's Bloodline into you."
"Really?"
"Yes. The reason your hands are hurting, isn't due to your lack of strength. But, because you haven't received its acceptance."
As Jian Shen placed the Myriad God Sword on top of the red sword, Qingyu continued her explanation.
"In fact, the same could be said about the Heavenly Dragon Sword, or any other of the nine sword pieces. Unless anyone receives the sword's acceptance, or has enough strength to suppress it, they will never be able to use them."
"Luckily, you have me! Therefore, you no longer have to worry about obtaining the recognition from any of the other sword pieces."
Realizing that it sounded as if she was putting Jian Shen's talent down, Qingyu hastily spoke.
"Not that you wouldn't be able to obtain their recognition without me. It's just, that you'll likely take a lot of time to do it on your own. A few tens of years at least."
While Jian Shen didn't say anything in response, Qingyu who was touching the Scarlet Tailed Fox Sword in her sword form, started fusing with it.
From the point of contact between the two swords, the red sword began sizzling and started releasing smoke out of it.
Soon, the red sword started melting and turned into a huge floating blob of thick gooey liquid.
As the same time, the Myriad God Sword started floating in the air and absorbed the thick red liquid through its tip
When all of the liquid was finally absorbed, the Myriad God Sword began releasing a tremendous pressure accompanied by a blazing red mist surrounding them.
