Chapter 1160: Chapter 1160

After a good while, the intense aura around the Black Dragon Saint finally subdued and vanished.

"Brother, thank you!" The Black Dragon Saint said earnestly.

"We’re brothers, no need to be so formal." Zhang Xiaohao laughed.

"Alright, stop dawdling. The thousand-year-old turtle meat is already cooked. If you don’t eat it soon, it’ll get cold." Zhang Xiaohao called out.

With a wave of his right hand, he collected the Shennong Pill Fire.

"Hehe! Brother, then I won’t be polite." The Black Dragon Saint chuckled.

Grabbing the wine jug, he took a hearty sip, and immediately picked up the chopsticks and bowl to eat.

Zhang Xiaohao and his companion were full.

"Let’s go!" Zhang Xiaohao beckoned.

A flick of his fingers sent dozens of flames shooting from his palm, landing on the palaces of the Great Brightness Temple.

After finishing all this, his body flashed, stepping on the Twelve Heavenly Steps, heading towards Nanhua City.

Zhang Xiaohao and the Black Dragon Saint returned to the Cheng Family villa.

It was already around seven in the evening.

"Hey! Brother-in-law, you guys actually decided to come back? My sister and Sister Ruobai have been looking all over for you these past two days!" Cheng Qingsu blinked.

Zhang Xiaohao and the Black Dragon Saint changed into slippers.

"Where’s your sister and them?" Zhang Xiaohao asked with a smile.

"My sister and them are upstairs; they haven’t had dinner yet, so they’re playing cards!" Cheng Qingsu replied.

As she finished speaking, her eyes sparkled.

"Hehe! Brother-in-law, you’re in for it later!" Cheng Qingsu gloated mischievously.

"Qingsu, you’re quite bold! You dare to mess with your brother-in-law; have you not been disciplined for three days? Are you itching for it?" Zhang Xiaohao said with a straight face.

"Tch! Brother-in-law, you just bluff! I’m not afraid of you anymore! My sister has my back. If you dare touch me, my sister won’t spare you!" Cheng Qingsu said proudly.

"Xiaohao, Little Black is back!" At this moment, Mr. Cheng heard the commotion outside and came out of his room.

"Yes! We’re back, Grandpa." Zhang Xiaohao said with a smile.

"How did things go?" Mr. Cheng asked.

"Everything’s settled!" Zhang Xiaohao said.

"Good work! Go take a shower and get ready to eat!" Mr. Cheng said.

"Mm." Zhang Xiaohao answered.

He and the Black Dragon Saint headed to the washrooms. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✶𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮✶𝓷𝓮𝓽

In the washroom, Zhang Xiaohao closed the door, turned on the faucet, and took a cold shower, starting to clean up.

Zhang Xiaohao, wearing shorts and a sleeveless shirt, came out of the washroom and headed to the nearby kitchen.

"Ah! Son-in-law, why are you in here?" Sister Zhou asked in surprise when she saw Zhang Xiaohao.

"Sister Zhou, take these dishes out; I’ll handle the rest!" Zhang Xiaohao smiled.

"Okay." Sister Zhou nodded with a smile.

She took out the prepared Six Paths dishes.

Zhang Xiaohao closed the door, took out fifty pounds of aged turtle meat, cleaned it, and sliced it into thin, even pieces, placing them in the hotpot dish.

Then he added some special ingredients and took out two jugs of monkey wine, holding the hotpot in one hand and the two jugs of wine in the other, and walked out.

Upon seeing Zhang Xiaohao, Cheng Tianxue and Su Ruobai both snorted coldly, obviously displeased with this rascal for playing them off, treating their words as mere passing winds, and sneaking off with the Black Dragon Saint again.

"Hey! Is your throat uncomfortable? This is a thousand-year-old turtle that I caught specially for you from the sea, it’s very nourishing!" Zhang Xiaohao said with a smile.

"Mm? Smells good! Brother-in-law, is this really a thousand-year-old turtle? You’re not joking, are you?" Cheng Qingsu blinked and asked.

She quickly grabbed chopsticks and ate a piece.

"Ah! It’s disgusting, this isn’t thousand-year-old turtle meat at all, brother-in-law you’re a liar! To punish you, I’m throwing all this meat away!" Cheng Qingsu said angrily.

As she spoke, Cheng Qingsu swiftly picked up the hotpot and rushed towards her room.

"Brat, stop right there! You think we’re all fools who can’t even smell the good fragrance? You want to eat it all yourself?" Cheng Tianxue stepped in front of her and said.

"Sis, you have to believe me, this is really terrible! I’m your real sister, and we’re twins, how could I lie to you?" Cheng Qingsu said earnestly.

"Put it down! Don’t make me use force!" Cheng Tianxue said.

"Hmph! Fine, I’ll put it down!" Cheng Qingsu said, pouting her mouth.

She then pulled out a chair and sat down, grabbing her chopsticks and eating quickly.

"Everyone, stop standing around, taste this thousand-year-old turtle meat!" Zhang Xiaohao said, inviting everyone with a smile.

The group immediately pulled out chairs and sat down.

Compared to before, a few women were missing, as Zhang Jing, Wang Mengmeng, and Zhao Ling’er were absent due to their busy jobs.

"Mm! Delicious! It’s incredibly tasty! Cheng Qingsu, you lying brat, claiming it’s bad so you can eat it all!" Cheng Tianxue said coolly.

"Yeah, Sister Qingsu, you’re my homeroom teacher. You once said we must be honest and not lie!" Zhou Yating blinked and said.

"Hehe! I’m eating, I’ll eat with all my might!" Cheng Qingsu didn’t respond, delighted inside.

She kept scarfing down the thousand-year-old turtle meat from the pot.

The others, seeing her manner, immediately understood her intentions and grabbed their chopsticks to eat quickly.

A full feast, plus two jugs of monkey wine, nearly all disappeared into the bellies of Zhang Xiaohao and the men.

Even Mr. Cheng ate a lot!

"So full! I’ve never eaten this full; no wonder it’s thousand-year-old!" Mr. Cheng praised.

"Woof woof!" At this moment, a barking sound was heard.

A figure flashed, rushing over, stopping by Zhang Xiaohao.

Affectionately nudging Zhang Xiaohao’s leg with its head, it looked like it was saying, I want some too!

"Mm? Peak of Cycle Palace Realm?" Zhang Xiaohao’s eyes squinted, thinking silently.

"You’re late; it’s all eaten!" Zhang Xiaohao said with a smile.

"Woof woof!!!" Little Dot barked again.

It stood up from the ground, incredibly human-like, and started dancing around Zhang Xiaohao.

"Zhang Xiaohao, Little Dot has a hard time too, make some for it!" Cheng Tianxue said playfully.

"Woof woof!" Little Dot blinked its eyes, continuing to act cute toward Zhang Xiaohao.

"Alright! Wait here, I’ll make some for you!" Zhang Xiaohao said, amusedly.
