"But Su Binglan, and Li Yan, how did they manage to do it? I saw Su Binglan crushing bricks with her bare hands!"

Wen Rou's heart grew increasingly imbalanced. Su Binglan and the others had become peerless masters, capable of taking on ten opponents at once, while she remained as frail as before, prompting her desire to become strong and emerge as a hero of her generation!

What Wen Rou found hardest to adapt to was the fact that Su Binglan and the others would gather together, all discussing True Qi circulation and cultivation progress; Wen Rou could barely get a word in edgewise. If this continued, would she not be left behind?

"We are all goddesses, but can a greenhorn like you compare with us?" Su Binglan laughed.

"I am a goddess too, younger than all of you, you're all getting old!" Wen Rou protested.

"You might be younger than us, but you'll definitely age faster than we will. Now that we're masters, our skin and complexions keep improving, practically growing younger by the day; whereas you'll just grow older. By the time your hair is white, we will still be eternally youthful. Even if you turn into a red-faced skeleton, we'll still be enjoying the beautiful life!" Su Binglan's words were like a flurry that pricked at Wen Rou's sensitive spots.

"Ye Chen, I want to train in martial arts, I want to become a master, I want to beat down Su Binglan!"

Wen Rou harbored deep animosity towards Su Binglan, her fists tightly clenched as she incessantly begged Ye Chen to teach her martial arts, almost to the point of prostrating herself as a disciple.

"You really aren't suited for it!" Wen Rou's relentless badgering left Ye Chen feeling helpless.

"I don't care, I just want to train in martial arts, at any cost!" Wen Rou declared excitedly.

"Ye Chen, don't you understand yet?" Su Binglan approached, her face sporting an inscrutable smile.

"What do you mean?" Ye Chen asked innocently.

"When Wen Rou says she wants to train in martial arts and is willing to pay any price, it's the same as her confessing her feelings to you," Su Binglan explained.

"..." Ye Chen was suddenly flustered.

Under the flickering light of the bonfire, Wen Rou's cheeks were blushingly red, emanating an indescribable allure that could stir a person's heartstrings.

Yet, Wen Rou offered no retort to Su Binglan's casual slander, which took Ye Chen by surprise.

In the end, Ye Chen chuckled dryly a couple of times, picked up a bamboo stick, and skewered a piece of fragrant chicken meat.

"Eat this piece of meat!" Ye Chen offered the chicken meat to Wen Rou.

"Can I eat it now?" Wen Rou's mouth watered at the sight of the chicken meat, which exuded a unique aroma that seemed tantalizingly delicious.

"Yes, the meat is thoroughly cooked and perfect for eating now!" Ye Chen said. "This isn't ordinary chicken meat; it contains a divine substance. If you eat it, it will strengthen your body, and with some luck, you might even be able to cultivate True Qi!"

"Really?" Wen Rou was immediately overjoyed, almost snatching the piece of chicken Ye Chen handed to her.

"This chicken meat was as tough as stone; I never expected it to smell so good once cooked!"

The piece of chicken meat released a distinctive aroma, a fragrance that Wen Rou had never encountered before, which instantly made her appetite surge with just a whiff.

"Ahh!"

Wen Rou bit into the chicken meat, her facial expression immediately becoming quite animated. She then started to eat the piece of chicken messily, as if overcome by extreme hunger.

"This!" Zhang Xinlan, Su Binglan, and Li Yan were somewhat astonished by Wen Rou's way of eating.

Wen Rou had always been gentle, a lady in all her actions. How come she was revealing her ugly side just by eating a piece of chicken?

"It seems that this chicken must be really delicious!"

Ye Chen picked up a bamboo skewer, pulled several pieces of chicken out of the pot, and presented them to Zhang Xinlan and the other ladies, then he took a piece for himself to eat.

"This!" Ye Chen had only taken one bite when he immediately started drooling uncontrollably, this chicken was just too damn tasty!

"Augh!"

Zhang Xinlan and the others didn't bother to speak; they just grabbed a big chunk of chicken and began gnawing wildly, mirroring Wen Rou's manner of eating.

"The flavor of this chicken is very unique, but it's explosively delicious, leaving a lingering fragrance on the lips and teeth!" Ye Chen ate the meat with savage gusto, gulping down huge pieces of chicken in just two or three bites. "This kind of poultry is the sustenance of the Saintly Great Power, containing the strength of ghost gods, divine substances. Having just eaten a piece, the True Qi in my body feels like it has become thicker!"

"Very good, very powerful!" Once Ye Chen understood the miraculous effects of this chicken, he started to scoop up massive amounts from the pot, eating ravenously.

Ye Chen was prepared to eat his way into creating a heaven and earth, a universe, eating all the way to becoming a Land God, reaching the Great Venerable of the Other Shore, and even advancing to Saintly Great Power!

However, Ye Chen's thoughts were quite delusional. Even if he had plenty of precious medicinal meat on him, including the strongest flesh of poultry, eating all of it wouldn't bring him to the realms of a Saintly Great Power or the Great Venerable of the Other Shore. Ye Chen estimated that after digesting all this flesh, he should be able to ascend to the status of a Land God.

Moreover, the divine substance contained in these pieces of flesh was so potent that even someone with profound skills like Ye Chen couldn't eat them every day for nourishment, or else the excess would be harmful and cause health problems.

"Ye Chen, why do I feel a bit light-headed after eating this chicken, and why is my body so hot?" Wen Rou, having finished a piece of chicken, was flushed with a unique charm.

"As I told you, this chicken is really nourishing. Eating a piece is like consuming a hundred-year-old ginseng; it would be weird if you didn't feel light-headed and hot," said Ye Chen. "You can't eat any more, how you are now is just right, eating too much will be problematic!"

Wen Rou had an ordinary constitution, and one piece of chicken was her limit. If she were to overeat out of greed, she would be over-nourished, which could affect her health and well-being.

"Okay." Wen Rou nodded. "Ye Chen, I feel so hot, my head is spinning, and I'm feeling quite dizzy, could you help me to my room to rest?"

Wen Rou felt her head swelling, as if she would pass out at any moment, like she was drunk, and on impulse, she threw a coquettish look at Ye Chen, hoping he would take her back to her room to rest.

"I'm busy eating meat right now; no time."

Ye Chen was enthusiastically devouring the chicken, his body coursing with divine substance, showing no interest in escorting the beauty to her room.

"You jerk!" Wen Rou was rejected and immediately became furious, collapsing on the spot as if dead.

"She's dead?" Su Binglan, having just finished her chicken, saw Wen Rou collapse and immediately grew worried.

Su Binglan and Wen Rou had a close relationship, not just as cooperative subordinates but also as intimate sisters.

"She's fine, the divine substance in the chicken is transforming her body, enhancing her physical abilities, and putting her into a kind of hibernation," explained Ye Chen.

"I see." Su Binglan nodded and then continued to eat her chicken, letting Wen Rou lie there for a bit.

"Even with True Qi to protect you, you can't eat too much of this meat or you will be over-nourished," Ye Chen warned the ladies.
