The disciple hurriedly agreed and did not dare to say anything more. Everyone brought the wolfdogs and gradually left. Song Zhi finally could not hold on any longer and fell from the tree, landing on the soft, withered leaves.
Mo Xiuyao glanced at her. "Still alive?"
"I'm alive…"
Song Zhi quickly got up from the ground and took off her invisibility cloak. Mo Xiuyao gave a tsk and handed the rabbit to her. "Take it."
Song Zhi caught the rabbit in a hurry, but Mo Xiuyao disappeared just as she held him firmly. She licked her dry lips and fell to the ground after surviving the disaster. She did not get up for a long time, but she still held the rabbit tightly.
Song Zhi sighed as she looked at the trembling rabbit. "You and I can be considered to be in the same boat." The rabbit continued to shiver. Song Zhi's face was filled with love. After an hour, the rabbit head in red oil was ready.
Mo Xiuyao thought that Song Zhi would back off after the shock, but he did not expect her to cook instead of running away. The strong fragrance of the food was blown by the wind. He had intended to ignore her, but the smell was too good. So, in the evening, Mo Xiuyao appeared in the open space by the stream again.
"Demon Lord, come quickly, the dishes are just out of the pot!" Song Zhi greeted him warmly.
Mo Xiuyao stared at her for a moment and smiled, "You really don't want to give up."
"If I give up, I'll just have to wait for death. I have no choice." Song Zhi sighed and changed the topic. "I've specially added more chili oil and pepper. It's spicy, fresh, and fragrant. I guarantee it'll be delicious."
Mo Xiuyao sat down on his stool and picked up a piece of meat with his chopsticks. The meat was tender and bouncy, fat but not greasy. The chili oil and seasoning were used very well, but it was not overdone. It was just that the taste of the meat was a bit like... Mo Xiuyao paused for a moment and suddenly had a bad feeling. "Where's the rabbit I gave you?"
"Isn't this the one?" Song Zhi glanced at the dining table.
Mo Xiuyao, "..."
There was a sudden silence. Song Zhi blinked her eyes and suddenly felt that something was wrong. "Umm… Isn't that rabbit an ingredient?"
"Didn't I say that I'm keeping it to relieve my boredom?" Mo Xiuyao said faintly.
"... I thought you said that to send those people away." Song Zhi laughed dryly and silently picked up a rabbit leg for Mo Xiuyao. Mo Xiuyao looked at the glistening rabbit leg for a long time before he silently picked it up.
"Does it smell good?" Song Zhi asked.
Mo Xiuyao said, "... Yes."
Having eaten two meals in a short two hours, even with Demon Lord's extraordinary talent, he felt full at this moment. Out of his love for food, Mo Xiuyao was more patient with chefs who were good at cooking, even more so after she had eaten and drank her fill. He put down his chopsticks and did not leave immediately. Instead, he looked at the gorgeous Song Zhi opposite him and asked, "Which sect are you from?"
"I'm from Survivor Sect," Song Zhi lied.
"There's a sect with that name in the Immortal world?" Mo Xiuyao raised his eyebrows.
Song Zhi nodded her head seriously. "Yes, there is. It's a small sect that has just emerged in the past few years. Including me, there are more than ten people."
When she decided to look for Mo Xiuyao, she had already decided to cut off all ties with him after the Gu Poison was cured. Therefore, she could not reveal any information about herself. She had also made up her background long ago to deal with any sudden questions from him.
"No wonder they would accept someone with such poor aptitude like you." Mo Xiuyao was suddenly enlightened.
Although the sect was made up, Song Zhi still felt unhappy. "I'm not that bad, am I?"
Mo Xiuyao looked at her with a faint smile. Song Zhi's mouth twitched. "Of course... My aptitude is indeed a little worse than yours."
"Compared to anyone, you're not good enough, including the few people you played with just now," Mo Xiuyao replied calmly.
Song Zhi, "Can you shut up?"
Mo Xiuyao did not feel like he had offended anyone. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "In order to cure the Gu Poison in your body, not only do you need to find a person with the opposite constitution to dual cultivate with, but you also need to know Hehuan Sect's cultivation techniques. You're not from Hehuan Sect, so how are you going to cure the Gu Poison?"
Song Zhi had already prepared the answer to this question. When she heard this, she hurriedly took out a few small booklets from her Cosmos Bag and handed them to Mo Xiuyao attentively. Mo Xiuyao glanced at them and saw that they were all secret manuals of Hehuan Sect's cultivation techniques. They were also things that were not taught to outsiders. He raised his eyebrows.
"I spent a lot of effort to steal it from Hehuan Sect." Song Zhi explained the origin of these martial arts manuals in one sentence and extended another invitation. "Everything is ready now, and the only thing that's left is you."
