CHAPTER 123: CHAPTER 79: BOOTLICKER!

Linglong: "...Am I talking about the eating problem?"

Little Poison: "Then what problem are you talking about?"

Linglong: "I’m talking about the problem of speaking!"

Little Poison: "I don’t want to speak, I just want to eat."

Linglong was exasperated: "Did you grow a mouth just to eat?"

Little Poison nodded with confidence: "Yeah!"

Linglong: "..."

She realized.

Such a brainless type is simply her nemesis!

The Taotie, chained like a dog beside them, was getting a headache from their bickering.

It lifted its blood-red vertical pupils, filled with tear stains, and silently watched the two, slowly moved away, trying to distance itself.

It lay on the ground, resting its head on its front paws, its eyes vacant, showing a very human-like bewilderment on its long ugly face.

It couldn’t understand.

Since ancient times, Taotie has been a Divine Beast.

No matter where it goes, countless people swarm around, competing to worship it.

How did it change in this generation?

The Taotie recalled the person who had beaten it before, and couldn’t help but shiver.

That person was like a madman.

Completely unreasonable!

Taotie eats the world with its big mouth, even able to consume other attacks on its True Essence.

It originally thought of using that person’s attack on its True Essence to consolidate its realm.

But that person didn’t give it a bit of True Essence.

He fought purely with fists!

The Taotie couldn’t comprehend.

What a grudge is there? Is there a need to hit so hard?

The Taotie has spikes and scale armor, doesn’t his hand hurt?

Taotie’s whole body—who knows how many bones were broken by that person.

Luckily, it is a Divine Beast.

If it were another beast, it might have been beaten to death long ago!

Sigh!

The Taotie let out a long sigh, saliva dripping from the corner of its mouth.

Although it’s roasted meat cut from its own body.

But it’s really so fragrant!

The Taotie struggled to swallow its saliva, tears uncontrollably flowed from the corner of its mouth.

From birth until now, it hasn’t tasted food yet.

"Want to eat?"

"Yes!"

The Taotie nodded sharply, speaking without hesitation.

Immediately, it seemed to wake up suddenly and quickly lifted its head to look at the speaker.

Seeing Zhao Yi there, it instantly trembled all over in fear.

Standing beside the Taotie was none other than Zhao Yi.

Seeing Zhao Yi, scales on the Taotie stood on end, baring its big teeth, making the whimpering sound of a frightened canine.

Zhao Yi waved a hand, signaling it not to be nervous.

With curiosity, Zhao Yi looked at the Taotie and asked, "You can talk?"

The Taotie hesitated a bit, then slowly nodded.

Zhao Yi asked puzzled, "Then why didn’t you cry out when I hit you?"

The Taotie: "...For dignity."

Hearing this, Zhao Yi said dismissively, "What do you need that thing for, it’s neither food nor drink!"

Then he asked the Taotie, "Do you want to eat something?"

The Taotie shook its head.

Just about to say it didn’t want to, yet its stomach grumbled.

As if not hearing, Zhao Yi took a skewer of meat from beside him and handed it over with a smile.

"Eat up."

The Taotie hesitated briefly, then devoured the roasted meat in one bite.

"Tasty?" Zhao Yi asked.

The Taotie’s eyes lit up instantly as if a door to a New World had opened.

It clearly had not expected its own meat to be so delicious!

It turned sharply, its blood-red eyes fixated on the skewers in Little Poison and Linglong’s hands, emitting the whimper of a canine guarding its food.

Noticing this, Zhao Yi laughed: "That’s not much meat, even if I gave it all to you, it wouldn’t even fill the gap in your teeth. If you want to eat more, just roast some more, isn’t that simple?"

The Taotie nodded continuously: "Roast, quick, roast it!"

Zhao Yi feigned difficulty: "But there’s no meat left!"

"No meat left?" Taotie paused for a moment, then eagerly extended its paw and impatiently shouted towards Zuo Xiaoluo in the distance, "Butcher me, come quickly and butcher me!"

Zhao Yi’s lips curled upward, a smile appeared on his face.

He knew it!

This Taotie, fused with Su Qianqian, couldn’t remain unchanged.

Zhao Yi had been curious before, wondering in what way this Taotie resembled Su Qianqian.

No need to guess now.

Their minds are just like stamped from the same mold.

No normal person would be this silly!

Linglong looked at the Taotie with eyes full of disdain.

Divine Beast? This?

Originally she was full of expectations for the legendary Taotie.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

What kind of Divine Beast is this, clearly just a dumb dog!

If the Taotie knew Linglong’s thoughts, it would definitely be furious.

What could it do against that rule-breaking guy?

A normal person after knowing it is Taotie would definitely worship it!

Over countless years, all Taoties have lived like this.

Who knew that the trend shifted when it came to it?

Not only Linglong couldn’t understand, but even the Taotie found it baffling.

According to some memory fragments in its bloodline heritage, mortals are supposed to believe in and worship Divine Beasts.

Who starts off with a beating?

The Taotie was mulling over this when it suddenly felt a sharp pain from its extended paw.

The Taotie lifted its eyelids and saw Zuo Xiaoluo busy cutting its meat, silently retracting its gaze.

No big deal.

Once the cutting reaches a certain amount, you get used to it!

This is also one of the things the Taotie didn’t understand.

The memory fragments in its heritage clearly stated that Taotie’s skin is tough and can only be harmed by Divine Artifacts.

But the woman’s kitchen knife doesn’t seem like a Divine Artifact at all.

Why is cutting its meat easier than cutting grass?

Is there a problem with the memory fragments of its heritage, or has the Cultivation Realm changed too fast?

The Taotie, although not understanding, was greatly shocked.

It decided to lay low first, and once it gathered enough information, then make plans!

As for the immediate task at hand...

Seeing Zuo Xiaoluo cutting two pounds of foreleg meat and about to leave, the Taotie hurriedly stopped her:
