They blinked, rubbed their eyes, and took a second look…
No, their eyes weren't playing tricks on them, were they?
It was undeniably a regular braised carp! Identical to what they would typically have.
Prince Nuo Nuo seemed to share the same sentiment. His face brightened, and his eyes sparkled as he gestured towards the braised carp, ready to voice his sneer. "Lord Shao, you didn't serve us the live braised carp we requested, did you? We were expecting—"
His eyes widened abruptly, and he froze.
The carp was moving!
Not once, but twice more, in a clear and unmistakable manner!
Everyone present witnessed it, and a collective gasp of astonishment swept through the room.
"It moved, it actually moved! I saw it!"
"Is this some kind of illusion? This is…"
"It's genuinely alive, a living braised carp!"
"How can this be!"
