"Lord, where is the food?" an adjutant asked.
Mu Qingge laughed, her clear eyes calm: "Outside the city there are so many Beast Clan corpses, what else are they if not food? You’ve wasted quite a bit of these top-notch military provisions."
The generals’ eyes suddenly brightened.
That’s right! Why didn’t they think of it? Those wild beasts, Spirit Beasts, aren’t they just food? Previously, during the battle, they had only seen the beasts as enemies and didn’t think of this. If it wasn’t for the Lord’s reminder...
The adjutant who realized it showed a smile and complinted Mu Qingge, "Haha, Lord, you really think fast. We didn’t even notice the food right in front of us."
With this, everyone looked towards Mu Xiong, waiting for his decision.
Monts later, the city gates were opened, and countless soldiers sward out, searching the battlefield for tasty food. Beast Clan corpses were dragged into the city, and finally, smiles spread across the faces of warriors weary from days of combat.
Mu Qingge instructed Mo Yang to deliver the remaining dicinal powder from her space to quell the urgent need, then she and Qin Yiyao returned to the room where she had awakened earlier.
As soon as they entered the room, they were greeted by the aroma of at.
Mu Qingge looked up to find a plate on the round table. On the plate was roasted at from so kind of Beast Clan.
The at was roasted a bit charred, with so areas still streaked with blood.
Qin Yiyao felt a churn in her chest and couldn’t help but gag.
Mu Qingge glanced at her without saying anything, and walked over to stand before the table, using the prepared dagger to cut a slice of the bloody roasted at, and ate it without a blink.
Qin Yiyao watched Mu Qingge with wide eyes, still finding it hard to accept even after she swallowed the at.
Mu Qingge looked at her and said calmly: "When survival becos the only goal, what can’t you eat? Everyone in the Mu Family Army in Yi City, including , want to survive. If we don’t eat, we won’t have strength, and without strength, it’s hard to survive on the battlefield. It’s that simple."
Saying this, she tossed the dagger and turned to head to the bed.
Qin Yiyao listened to Mu Qingge’s words in a daze, looking at the roasted at on the plate, she walked closer step by step.
Finally, she mustered her courage, picked up the dagger Mu Qingge left behind, cut herself a piece of at, and shoved it into her mouth. With no seasoning, it was filled with a raw taste. Qin Yiyao almost spat it out but forced herself to swallow it directly.
After finishing the piece, when she turned around, she discovered Mu Qingge already sitting cross-legged on the bed, entering a cultivation state.
She opened her mouth but silently exited the room in the end.
She had a lot of questions in her heart. But when with Mu Qingge, she couldn’t bring herself to ask anything.
Why could Mu Qingge suddenly cultivate? Moreover, her continuously impressive performances in the Mu Family Army made people puzzled and shocked.
Qin Yiyao slowly walked to the damaged city wall, where soldiers had already begun repairs. In the distance was yesterday’s battlefield, the blood-soaked scenes still vivid in her mind.
Fighting alongside Mu Qingge stirred warmth in her heart, becoming an unforgettable mory.
...
Mu Qingge awoke from cultivation, noticing an extra person in the room.
Gu Ya stood by the bed, seeing Mu Qingge awake, he tossed sothing earthy towards her.
Mu Qingge caught it effortlessly, opened the white cloth wrapping outside, and upon seeing the item inside, her eyes narrowed in shock: "Dragon Snake Fruit!"
