Chapter 856- Civil servants die for values, generals die in battle (2/2)

Hangzhou Pingshui Street Yinqin City had the only Jin Qian Bao Buffet Restaurant in Hangzhou. At this time, it cost each person five hundred dollars. I paid the bill and we had a great meal. Lin Wan Er was really happy but Dong Cheng Yue didn't have much appetite. Although she walked out of the shadow of Dong Cheng Lei's death, she still hadn't fully recovered to her previous state.

I looked at her and felt a little helpless. I made a promise in front of Dong Cheng Lei's grave to help him take care of her as her brother. But what should I do to make her happier?

As we were eating, a chef held a barbecued lamb leg with the fragrance wafting all over. He smiled, ”Do the few of you want lamb legs?”

Lin Wan Er nodded, ”I want a piece.”

The chef slashed down; his knife skills were average. I smiled, ”Master, your knife skills aren't that good. Why not let me try?”

The chef was stunned, ”Little kid, you want to try?”

”Yeah.” I nodded my head, ”What is the proper knife technique?”

The middle-aged chef was shocked, ”Using Qi to control the knife?”

I nearly vomited out blood and said, ”No, the true knife technique is for the knife to follow the heart. The meat you slice just falls down. Let me try. Do you think I can slice it through the air?”

The chef was surprised, ”Here, have a go!”

I stood up while holding the lamb leg. Then I looked towards Dong Cheng Yue, smiling, ”Dong Cheng, how far am I from your plate?”

Dong Cheng Yue blinked, ”Three meters?”

”Okay. I am so far away but I can slice five pieces of meat in one second and make each piece land on your plate. Do you believe me or not?”

”No!”

”Okay, let's bet. If one piece falls outside I will swallow the entire lamb leg. If I succeed, you need to finish these five pieces, how about that?”

Dong Cheng Yue excitedly nodded her head, her chest pushed out as she stood there, saying in anticipation, ”Brother Xiao Yao, go ahead!”

The chef also opened his eyes wide as he looked from the side. His expression was pretty much saying, ”Let's see how much you can brag. You are going to fail.”

I held the lamb leg on my left hand, my right hand shaking and instantly Yang Yan energy surged around the blade. The knife was actually not really sharp. Five cuts would take a long time, but after adding in Yang Yan energy it was different. My right hand waved instantly five times. Before any fragrances wafted into my nose, five thin slices of lamb landed on her plate and they were stacked together, joining up where the cuts were.

”Ah?”

Dong Cheng Yue's mouth opened wide, and her eyes did the same. Tang Qi was also shocked, ”Wow, such predictive ability...”

Lin Wan Er smiled, ”It seems like your martial arts have improved again...”

I returned the lamb leg to the chef whose mouth was still agape. He left only after some time, and he didn't forget to turn around and look at me, feeling that I was not normal. Actually, the only thing that was not normal was that he was a mortal. Moreover, within the cultivator realm, I was not considered a mortal anymore and was someone really close to god. I was probably a semi-god?

This time, Dong Cheng Yue finally had some appetite. After she ate the few pieces of lamb, she drank a bowl of vegetable soup. A beautiful smile appeared on her face once more. Tang Qi was also really happy as he looked over at me in gratitude. I didn't even bother to look at him. I did this because both Lin Wan Er and I loved this girl, not for Tang Qi.

……

Not long later, Dong Cheng Yue and Lin Wan Er touched their thin tummies and laughed. They also mentioned how they were going on a diet next week. I didn't even see any signs of them getting fat. On the other side, Tang Qi and I were still randomly eating, determined to make the five hundred dollars back. Moreover, we only ate the expensive items and stopped when we felt like we were about to die, walking while using the wall as a support. Lin Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue laughed out loud, one on the left and one on the right as they supported me out the door. In the end, Lin Wan Er had to drive because I felt like my stomach was about to obstruct the steering wheel. Dong Cheng Yue laughed, ”Brother Xiao Yao, you are the handsome god for all the female players of Tian Ling City, to eat till such a stage, your image is totally gone!”

I patted onto my stomach and burped, ”It is okay, as long as I am full...”

At this moment a notification rang on my phone. The NPC in Tian Ling City was searching for the Royal Army General. They wanted me to rush back online to see what had happened.
