1382 Encounter! Confrontation! (1) At night. After the round of massacre, the island became a forbidden ground; no star beast dared to go near. Wang Teng prepared a bonfire, then took out a chair and a table. He lay on the beach chair like an old man. A few beauties busied themselves around him. What a good life. Those young ladies were the floral fairies. Cao Jiaojiao was among them. After cultivating in the Space Fragment for numerous days, she finally had the chance to breathe some fresh air. They were all pulled out for manual labor. They needed to clean all the seafood for Wang Teng to cook. After all, his cooking skills were the best. He was a force chef grandmaster. Light-element seafood was hard to find. He didn’t want to waste it. Skewers of lobsters, crab, octopus, and various other species were barbecuing above the bonfire. They were sprinkled with different seasonings and a thick fragrance was spread throughout the beach. Clams, oysters, and other shellfish were treated differently. They smelled great, too. Catalpa and the others stared at the food intently, unable to look away. The small Flower Angel squatted down and hugged her knees, eyes shining and saliva dripping down a corner of her lips. Not even Cao Jiaojiao was able to withstand the temptation of the food and swallowed her saliva. She kept a stern face, then looked away with difficulty. It was her last effort! She couldn’t retaliate against Wang Teng, but no one could stop her from showing resentment. The metal-armored flaming scorpion rested by the side also staring at the seafood. Its mouth was watering, eager to get a bite. Still, the scorpion wouldn’t dare move since the human master had yet to give permission. Some time later, when the fragrance reached its peak, Wang Teng grabbed a huge lobster and started eating. “Not bad!” Wang Teng was extremely satisfied with his cooking skills. While munching on the lobster, he took out a can of coke and chilled it with ice force. Then, he started drinking happily. Coke complements everything. Seafood and coke are heavenly! The combination was a little unhealthy, but this was no issue for martial warriors. They had good stomachs. “Gulp!” Someone loudly gulped saliva. Wang Teng’s actions paused. He glanced at Flower Angel. She was staring at the lobster and his coke without blinking. Drool kept dripping down her mouth. She looked as if she wanted to pounce on him. “Hurry up and eat. Why aren’t you moving?” Wang Teng waved a hand. “Yay!” Flower Angel cheered. She rushed towards the largest crab in front of her, but she quickly pulled back the moment she touched the shell. “Hot!” “Be careful!” Catalpa wanted to laugh. She checked Flower Angel’s hand, feeling relieved she wasn’t scalded. “Hahaha, no one is going to snatch it from you.” Wang Teng laughed. Flower Angel was still staring at the crab with hungry eyes. Catalpa shook her head and helped Flower Angel break a crab leg off. She then passed it to her. The crab was huge; the leg was as thick as the fairy. A normal person would have a hard time breaking it with bare hands. Fortunately, the flower fairies hadn’t stopped cultivating while living in the Space Fragment. Furthermore, the place was awfully suitable for them to practice after its transformation, making them progress greatly, especially Catalpa; she reached the planetary stage. Flower Iris and the others were mostly at the seven-star planetary disciple stage and above. Even Flower Angel managed to reach the seven-star planetary disciple level. Hence, breaking the crab leg wasn’t hard. This showed working hard and cultivating was a must. If not, it wouldn’t even be possible to eat delicious food when given the chance. Flower Angel didn’t think too much. She broke the layer protecting the leg and started gobbling. Her table manners were on par with Wang Teng’s. The others started moving. It was hard to resist that seafood; they were good ingredients to begin with, and Wang Teng’s cooking skills raised their deliciousness by a notch. The metal-armored scorpion grabbed a large fish and munched on happily. After some time, it inched towards Wang Teng and said on the sly, “Master, can I have a can of coke?” “Why do you want it? You’re huge. You can’t even taste much of it with a single can. It’d be a waste.” Wang Teng didn’t want to oblige. “I just want to have a taste, a small one.” The scorpion kept on bootlicking. Wang Teng shook his head, speechless, upon noticing its expression. In the end, he still gave the scorpion a can; he had a lot in stock, so he couldn’t finish them anyway. He wouldn’t give any of it away otherwise. The scorpion ran to the side obediently, holding the coke can carefully between its pincers. The sight was a little funny. The coke was too small in comparison. If it were an adult, the can would be just a drip. Wang Teng took pity when he thought about this. Hence, he took out ten cans and threw them over. “Thank you master, thank you!” said the scorpion fervently. ... Wang Teng felt even worse. Sh*t, I must have exploited the poor sod too much. “Master, can you chill them for me?” the creature asked. Wang Teng rolled his eyes.
