Chapter 1123: Chapter 1123

Lingyun Sect disciples initially thought their mountain gate was about to be breached, but just as they were in despair, the Royal Family unexpectedly stopped their attack!

However, this didn’t relax them; instead, their hearts became even more panicked and worried.

It’s like being tied to a pole with someone else pointing a gun at your head. You know clearly that they want to kill you and have the capability, but you don’t know when they will do it. At this moment, there is nothing but fear in your heart.

If they are given a quick end, they might feel somewhat better because every second from now on will be filled with anxiety, as they clearly understand, what about food? The Royal Family is doing this deliberately, making them taste fear before burying them in fire.

Setting up a stove and cooking used to seem incredibly skilled.

"Senior brother, they don’t seem to have brought food."

"How are they going to cook?"

The people of Lingyun Sect were already famished. Since the mountain was sealed, they had no food source. For the past three days, apart from drinking a little water, they hadn’t eaten anything.

Three days without sleep was a mental torment, and three days without food was physical torture. Seeing the Sacred Gold Dynasty’s people set up fires to cook immediately caught all their attention.

The person at the center, flanked by three Royal Family members, took out a ring and seemingly conjured up box after box of square containers like magic.

"Brother Zhang, what is this?" Qi Xiu curiously asked, looking at the luxurious packaging.

"This is Yellow Braised Knorr Beast Meat Rice," Zhang Menglong said. For beings, every meal requires a lot of energy to maintain the energy on their bodies. If it were ordinary Earth meat, a typical True Martial Realm martial artist could probably eat one or two cows or sheep in a meal.

But the Yellow Braised Knorr Beast is a meat beast bred by an advanced civilization, with very rich energy, effectively solving the food problem for advanced life forms.

"No other actions are needed; you only need to pour water into it, and it will heat itself," Zhang Menglong handed over a box, "Want to try it?"

Following Zhang Menglong’s instructions, Qi Xiu poured in some water, and as the water boiled, a rich aroma spread out immediately, making the surrounding martial artists’ mouths start to salivate.

"Green Pepper Dragon Meat Rice, anyone want Green Pepper Dragon Meat Rice?"

"Yellow Braised Giant Chicken Rice, take it if you want it."

"Lanzhou Burduke Beef Noodle, only enough beef from one cow to make three servings!"

The royal warriors distributed these instant-heating meals separately, and their camp was suddenly filled with a wonderful aroma.

Hotpot, grilled skewers, Japanese dishes; Zhang Menglong transformed into a great chef, continuously creating various wonderful foods, earning endless praise from the Sacred Gold Dynasty people.

This completely broke the spirit of the Lingyun Sect disciples, who hadn’t slept or eaten for three days! Could you just give us a swift end, but instead, you torture us with such means? Would it be possible to show a little humanity? Compared to such torture, they would rather be blown to smithereens by a cannon.

They suddenly felt that when the Royal Family gave them a chance just now, they should have immediately left Lingyun Sect to join them. Perhaps, by now, they wouldn’t have to endure hunger and fatigue and might even be savoring delicacies with them.

Just then, holding a serving of Yellow Braised Rice and a skewer, Zhang Menglong walked toward the Lingyun Sect. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ novｅlfire.net

"Eighth brother, what’s Brother Zhang up to?" Qi Ning and You Ruo looked at Zhang Menglong’s actions with puzzled expressions.

"It’s definitely no good deed," Qi Xiu chuckled, continuing to devour his food.

"Senior brother, the Royal Family is coming!"

"It’s that person! What’s he up to?"

"There must be a conspiracy, everyone be cautious!"

Watching Zhang Menglong, everyone wore vigilant expressions.

"Why are you all afraid? What’s there to fear? A real man doesn’t act timid like a woman. You dare to rebel, yet fear death?" Zhang Menglong laughed, "Are you their senior brother?"

"Royal Family’s scoundrels, what do you want?" The senior brother was still quite tough, "I’m telling you, our Sect Master is about to break through to the Heaven Breaking Third Realm. When he emerges, it will be the end of your Sacred Gold Dynasty Royal Family!"

"Oh my, Heaven Breaking Third Realm, I’m so scared!" Zhang Menglong exaggerated, "You all mustn’t have eaten for a long time, right?"

"???" The Lingyun Sect people were suddenly dumbfounded, as Zhang Menglong’s words had a surprisingly warm feel in their ears!

Oh right, he came with food, maybe he felt some pity seeing they were both tired and hungry?

"Poor you, take it and eat. Even if you must die, wouldn’t it be better to die with a full belly?" Zhang Menglong placed the meager serving of food outside the Sect Protection Array and walked away, signaling that he was not up to any tricks.

"Brother Zhang, you’re actually giving them food?" Qi Xiu was a little confused, "Food isn’t even fit for a dog, yet you’re giving it to them!"

"Of course, they’re not worthy," Zhang Menglong smirked, "Why else do you think I only prepared a single serving?"

"Senior brother?" After Zhang Menglong walked away, the Lingyun Sect disciples couldn’t help but drool over the food, "He’s gone far, should we...?"

"Senior brother, I’m afraid it might be dangerous. How about I go get it?"

"Senior brother, the Royal Family is notoriously treacherous, I’m afraid they poisoned the food. I’m willing to sacrifice myself and taste it first...to test if it’s poisoned!"

Various disciples were rubbing their hands eagerly.

"No way!" The senior brother of Lingyun Sect spoke righteously, "Junior brothers, I’m your senior brother. I have the responsibility and duty to take care of you. How can I let you do such a dangerous thing? If I don’t go to hell, who will? This is something your senior brother must do!"

"Senior brother, let me go."

"Junior brother, let your senior brother handle this."

Initially, it was a matter of yielding among brothers, but gradually it escalated into physical conflict. There was only one serving of food, and they hadn’t eaten for three days. Now, with a bite to eat, they were willing to sell their souls, let alone brotherly affection.

"Senior brother, who are you pretending for? Are you that noble? Willing to sacrifice? You just want to eat it yourself, don’t you?"

"Hahaha, finally speaking the truth? I knew you weren’t sincere. You are constantly at odds with me, and now you suddenly want to test the poison for the greater good? Ridiculous."

"And you dare to blame me? You selfish and petty guy, calling yourself senior brother, yet not understanding the need to let junior brothers have it."

"Alright then, enough talking, whoever can eat this meal, let it be based on skill!"

"Fine! Even if you are the senior brother, I don’t think I’ll lose to you!"

"Great, watch my sword!"

"Well done! Slash him, aim for his legs!"

"Good swordsmanship! A couple more strikes, and the meal is yours!"

Zhang Menglong watched their chaos, finishing three large bowls of rice.

"This..." Watching the chaos among the Lingyun Sect disciples, Qi Xiu and others were wide-eyed.

They were just united against a common enemy, and now they’re fighting over a serving of Yellow Braised Rice?

What happened to brotherhood? What happened to sticking together? This is it?
