Feng Qi floated out from the Horse-Faced Bell, sniffing eagerly.
In Qingqiu, the green fruits are always unripe, unbearably sour.
She couldn’t imagine these green grapes being sweet.
Little Taotie picked a grape and brought it to Feng Qi’s mouth, Feng Qi sniffed, "I can only sll it, just the fruit scent, can’t taste its real flavor."
Just as she finished speaking, Feng Qi watched as the grape in Little Taotie’s hand turned transparent at a visible speed.
Feng Qi tentatively moved forward and opened her mouth.
Little Taotie fed it to her as if it were natural.
Feng Qi’s eyes widened in shock, "I can actually taste it, it’s sweet, so sweet and delicious!"
Little Taotie looked at her hand, then at the actual grapes on the plate, tried picking another one, thinking: Give it to Feng Qi!
As the thought settled, the grape in her hand gradually beca transparent.
Feng Qi eagerly leaned forward, opening her mouth wide, waiting to be fed.
Little Taotie fed it to her, blinking, "Can you taste it this ti too?"
Feng Qi nodded, beaming with delight, "Delicious!"
Little Taotie looked at Shen Cang in confusion, waiting for Head Grandpa to offer an explanation.
Shen Cang: "..."
He couldn’t explain it either.
For example, Little Taotie could see Ghosts, and Little Taotie was born with Divine Power, none of these were things Shen Cang could explain.
But with the little girl staring at him, Shen Cang couldn’t bear to disappoint her, so he furrowed his brow, thinking for a mont, and uncertainly said, "It might have to do with your One Soul returning, you’ve gained so new abilities."
"Wow~" The little girl was extrely excited, "I thought my strength had only increased!"
She bounced around Feng Qi, "Feng Qi, let’s try sothing else!"
Feng Qi nodded eagerly.
She was tempted too and wanted to test if those nuts were fragrant, if those snacks were sweet.
Little Taotie reached for an almond kernel, thinking: Give it to Feng Qi!
The almond kernel, like the grape, gradually turned transparent.
It transford from a Human World object to a Netherworld object.
Then, Little Taotie tried with pistachios, walnuts, sunflower seeds, cookies, peach pastries, chocolate cupcakes...
Finally, she even let Feng Qi taste this world’s coffee!
Little Taotie had been wary of coffee since a bitter taste lingered, never daring to drink it again.
Tilting her head, Little Taotie asked with a childish voice, "Isn’t it very bitter and hard to drink?"
Feng Qi savored the sweetness after the bitterness, squinting her eyes, "I really like this taste."
Little Taotie couldn’t understand why adults liked sothing more bitter than dicine, wasn’t sweet hot chocolate tasty? Or milk tea fragrant? Why drink bitter coffee?
Confusion aside, Little Taotie still cooperatively fed her so more.
Feng Qi bubbled with happiness, "It’s so satisfying, I haven’t experienced the genuine feeling of eating in a long, long ti."
Shen Cang analyzed, "Maybe besides food, other things can also beco Netherworld objects."
Just as Little Taotie was about to try, the sound of music ca from outside, and with it, a host walked onto the stage, marking the start of the auction.
"Everyone is familiar with my style, I don’t like wasting words, we won’t play with the fluff, let’s get straight to the point. Up next is an incense burner excavated from a millennium-old tomb."
The host clapped his hands, and two beautifully dressed young ladies pushed a cart onto the stage. On the cart was a transparent cover, inside which lay a bronze incense burner about the size of a convenient bowl, engraved with ancient Fierce Beasts.
