Chapter 23: Dragon Meat Feast
The blood of the dragon was carefully taken, the treasure chest was filled, and the pill was placed inside before sealing the chest again.
After securing the treasure chest, Chen Fan continued checking the space bag, thoroughly cleaning it before wiping off his mental imprint.
With everything done, Chen Fan stepped out of the room.
As for the mermaid frozen in ice, he had no plans to unseal or deal with her for now. There was no pool here, and he wasn’t sure if she could live on land. Moreover, his current points were running low.
By this time, night had fallen completely.
In the living room, the three women were watching him with longing eyes, seemingly waiting for food.
Ba Xia and the Medusa Empress were fine, as their cultivation levels were high, so they weren’t hungry.
But Cui Beixi was different. She was a priestess, and her cultivation was based on battle songs. Her physical body was no different from an ordinary person’s, and she couldn’t draw energy from the heavens and earth easily.
“We… don’t know how to use tools…”
Seeing Chen Fan’s gaze, Cui Beixi spoke awkwardly.
Chen Fan glanced at the kitchen and found that the meat in the fridge had already been taken out to thaw, cleaned, and cut.
“Never mind, tonight we’ll have some dragon meat and drink dragon blood soup,” he smiled, stepping outside to summon the dragon corpse.
He cut a large chunk of dragon meat from the wound’s inner side and added some dragon blood…
Truthfully, if the conditions allowed, Chen Fan would want to eat dragon meat and drink dragon soup every day.
However, he didn’t dare cut too much, as it would affect the appearance and lower the auction price.
Right now, he was in desperate need of money. He needed a luxurious mansion, or else life would be inconvenient.
Plus, he had to support three people and provide cultivation resources for them.
The two Medusas were fine—they didn’t eat much. But Ba Xia was different. She was weak, her hair had turned white, and besides cultivation, she needed to consume energy through food—and she had to eat well.
More importantly, she was pregnant, and the divine egg in her womb required plenty of energy.
An extraordinary bodyguard wasn’t easy to raise, especially one that was a weak ancient divine beast.
“My lord, you… have you broken through again?”
“Isn’t that a bit much…”
In the kitchen, the Medusa Empress was helping, and she couldn’t help but sigh.
“Just lucky,” Chen Fan replied humbly. “My luck was good today, as you know, I found three treasures on the first day of awakening.”
“There’s no such thing as just luck,” the Medusa Empress shook her head, feeling that Chen Fan was overly modest.
Chen Fan smiled but didn’t respond. It wasn’t luck, it was mostly because of the system. The system was so powerful that if he acted too normally, it would be a disgrace to the heavens.
How to cook dragon meat? How to make dragon soup?
Chen Fan didn’t know, as he had never had the privilege of eating it before.
So, he followed a regular method: marinating with ginger, garlic, and green onions, stir-frying, braising, and making a dry pot… various ways of preparing it.
Once the food was served, it smelled incredible, and the colors and fragrance were perfect, making everyone’s appetite grow.
Cui Beixi and Ba Xia seemed not to have eaten in a long time. At first, they were mindful of their image, but soon they gave up and ate heartily, leaving only a mess behind.
Seeing them , Chen Fan couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride.
After eating and drinking, Cui Beixi voluntarily went to wash the dishes.
The Medusa Empress, on the other hand, lazily lay on the sofa, holding her phone and propping up her long legs…
Ba Xia also went over, sitting beside the Medusa Empress, both of them scrolling through their phones, clearly engrossed in it.
“My lord, I’d like to take a bath…”
After washing the dishes, Cui Beixi came to Chen Fan’s side, her face flushing with embarrassment.
“Go ahead…” Chen Fan was browsing the news online to see if there was any mention of him.
“But… I don’t know how to use the tools…”
Cui Beixi seemed almost in tears.
“To you, this is high-tech equipment.” Chen Fan tapped his forehead lightly.
“By the way, you don’t have any clean clothes, do you?”
Looking at the ragged robe Cui Beixi was still wearing, Chen Fan helplessly sighed.
“Here, wear mine for now. Tomorrow, I’ll get you more clothes.”
Saying this, Chen Fan rummaged through the drawers and found a loose shirt and an outer jacket.
Looking at Cui Beixi’s golden snake tail, Chen Fan could only helplessly say, “I don’t have any skirts…”
The Medusa Empress was deeply embarrassed, her face turning bright red.
She realized she had blushed many times today. After all, she was a serious teacher.
“Here, I’ll show you how to use these.”
Saying this, Chen Fan led her to the bathroom, explaining the shampoo, body wash, spraying, water tap switches, and adjusting hot and cold water…
For someone from another world, especially from ancient times, it was indeed a bit difficult.
After explaining several times, Cui Beixi finally remembered everything.
“Close the door, this is the lock, and here…”
Chen Fan pointed at the handle behind the door and continued his introduction, but soon stopped.
“Never mind, I think you don’t need to close the door…”
“It won’t lock you in,” he smiled, looking at her long, golden snake tail. “Just cover it a bit…”
