Chapter 995: Chapter 995

In light of Liu Zheng just giving him some face, Doctor Nile still asked the cleaner to prepare some snacks for him.

After all, he and Sasha don't need to eat, but the cleaner and Niu Daji still need to.

Even though there's only an electric stove and a frying pan, they can at least fry an egg or boil some greens.

This whole time, having been dragged around by Liu Zheng with no time to spare, Doctor Nile plans to renovate the clinic once things settle down a bit.

Now that more and more people are coming to the clinic, and with frequent visitors, a proper kitchen is definitely needed.

After an easygoing afternoon drink at the clinic, and a round of Senet Chess with Doctor Nile (an ancient board game popular in the Nile River region, also known as the "passage game"), Liu Zheng felt his body and mind had been somewhat relaxed.

"This is the real way to live."

He said with a stretch.

"You really don't need to be so busy. You're now half an Immortal Species yourself, it's time to change your perception of time."

Doctor Nile said. For origınal chapters go to novelꜰire.net

Given Liu Zheng's current condition, he could easily live another two to three hundred years.

From this perspective, as long as he stays in the Metropolis without settling an instance, the system has already fulfilled its promise.

Wherever it's broken, just cut it off and let a new one grow — is there any healthier and longer-lasting body than this?

But he knows that's impossible. Not to mention the increasingly wide and dense network of connections, the deity associated with the Black Mountain Goat Cub's bloodline will eventually come to collect.

"If there's a chance, I still want to go back to being human. While I can still use the power of the Black Mountain Goat Cub's bloodline, I should seize it."

Liu Zheng said half-jokingly.

"Yeah, you're right."

Doctor Nile agreed with his statement.

Different pantheons don't necessarily have to be at odds, but genuine cooperation is also impossible.

If Liu Zheng really becomes a follower of that deity one day, their relationship would no longer be as harmonious as it is now.

"Haha, I'm out of seclusion!"

As they were chatting, a panda burst out from the inner room and started guzzling from the beer keg on the table.

The remaining half-barrel of honey beer was downed in seconds.

"You obviously just came out of the operating room."

Liu Zheng pointed out.

The panda rolled its eyes at him and stuffed the leftover snacks on the table into its mouth.

"I haven't eaten enough!"

"Xiao Mei, make some more food."

Doctor Nile called towards the inside.

"No need, with his appetite, he won't be full even if he eats all the clinic's food. Since his injury is healed, let's go out to work."

Liu Zheng waved a tentacle in prevention.

"Even emperors don't field soldiers on an empty stomach, how can you work hungry?"

The panda begrudgingly objected.

"When an emperor orders a minister to die, the minister must die. So, will you die or not?"

"I don't care, I won't work without being full."

The panda started acting up when it couldn't argue.

"Alright, you want to be full, right? I'll take you now to the sewer for a buffet, ensuring you're stuffed to the gills and nourished a thousand percent."

"I won't go, eat it yourself if you want."

The panda shook its head like a rattle drum.

"You have no choice."

"Let me tell you, I despise you, but while my life may not match up to you in a real fight, in a sparring session, I could take on ten of you."

The panda scoffed arrogantly.

"Is that so? Look at this."

Liu Zheng pulled out the Dragon Fishing Pole.

"Qi Fortune Treasure! Hmph, when it comes to fortune, you may not outmatch me."

The panda stated confidently.

"Then take a look at this."

He brought out the Golden Lotus Seed of Fortune.

"Heavenly Venerate of Mixed Pill, where did you get so many treasures?"

The panda was both shocked and envious.

"There are far more opportunities in the city than in the mountains. Work hard for me, and you'll have these too."

"You better not deceive me."

"I never lie, ask the doctor if you don't believe me."

The man and the panda looked at Doctor Nile.

"This kid doesn't have many virtues, but he's reliable when he speaks."

"Alright then, I'll go with you."

"No rush, here's a greeting gift first."

Since the panda had given in, Liu Zheng didn't mind giving it a treat.

He brought out the Yin Yang Jade Pendant, and the panda's little eyes immediately lit up.

"Inheritance Jade Scroll!"

The panda quickly recognized the pendant's identity.

"Correct. This is the pendant from that coffin. I've already had someone break the seal. See if you can learn from it."

Liu Zheng tossed the pendant to it.

The panda caught it and then injected divine thought into it.

It took a good half-hour before it came out of its meditative state.

"My God, the inheritance in here is so complete. Compared to this, our Mixed Pill Sect's inheritance is like a beggar's legacy."

The panda said excitedly.

"What, thinking of switching sects?"

"How could that be? Even though our Mixed Pill Sect's inheritance is incomplete, its foundational cultivation technique is an authentic Mystical Sect path to immortality, much stronger than such fringe techniques."

The panda replied without hesitation.

"Can you learn from the inheritance inside?"

"Yes, many spells in here don't need their sect's cultivation technique to drive them. I can use them directly."

"Then work hard to learn them all, and return it to me when you're done."

"Ah, weren't you giving it to me?"

The panda said disappointedly.

"Once you've learned, you can make one yourself. What, are you really planning to start your own sect?"

"Don't joke, if my master hears that, he'll cripple my cultivation for sure."
