Chi Yu took the Celestial Secret Doll out from the Storage Bag that hung around her neck like a sachet.

She cultivated the Profound Whale Body and possessed astonishing Qi Power. She had once accidentally twisted off the Celestial Secret Doll’s arm and cried her eyes out. Yang Jing had to ask a Puppet Master from the Northern Army Governor’s Mansion to repair it before she could finally be placated.

Chi Yu placed the Celestial Secret Doll on the ground. She then took out various toys and food ingredients that had been refined by her junior brother, Ji Feng, ready to play house with Yellow Foot.

Yellow Foot was still savoring the taste of the Nine Revolutions Red Blood Pill and had little interest in playing house. But Chi Yu had more than enough Qi Power and wasn’t about to indulge him. Although Yellow Foot was born with Great Strength, he was still just a newborn and had yet to practice a Cultivation Technique. Pinned down by Chi Yu, he was completely unable to struggle.

The Mermaid watching from the side was startled. ’This little girl looks to be only two or three, yet she has such immense Qi Power! She’s no ordinary person.’

"Now I’m your daddy, and she’s your mommy."

Chi Yu sat on the ground, pointing at the Celestial Secret Doll.

The Celestial Secret Doll placed its hands on its waist and, with near-flawless execution of the ancient rites of a wife to her husband, performed a curtsy to Chi Yu.

"Husband."

One of the doll’s main functions was to instruct the young ladies of Noble Families on proper etiquette and deportment.

"Child."

Feeling rather aggrieved, Yellow Foot curled his massive body into the smallest ball he could, looking like a giant furball.

"Wife, I am hungry. Hurry and make a meal for our child and me."

The doll bowed gracefully and began meticulously preparing the food with the small kitchen utensils Ji Feng had refined. All the ingredients came from her Storage Bag, and many of them were quite precious.

The aroma of the ingredients made Yellow Foot stir with anticipation. His glossy black eyes fixated on a rack of ribs marbled with fat like snowflakes, and his mouth began to water.

But seeing his senior sister, Chi Yu, sitting so primly, he could only wipe the drool on the soft down of his chest.

A cold glint flashed in the eyes of the Celestial Secret Doll as it focused on its cooking:

"As a Noble Son, how can he behave so crudely? Husband, you must discipline our child at once."

"So crude! Simply too crude!"

Chi Yu giggled, took out a discipline ruler, and struck her master’s usual pose.

"Child, hold out your wings this instant."

Yellow Foot’s glossy black eyes went wide; he hadn’t expected this turn of events at all. He could only extend his wings pitifully and let his senior sister rap them once with the ruler.

Afterward, he was reprimanded by the Celestial Secret Doll for various other behaviors, and Chi Yu rapped his wings several more times.

The soldiers on deck watched this scene with their hearts in their throats, terrified that the West Sea Great Saint pulling the Flying Boat would suddenly fly into a rage. Thankfully, the Flying Boat continued to travel onward in peace, without incident.

Just as Yellow Foot was craning his neck in eager anticipation, the Celestial Secret Doll finally finished cooking. Holding a tray with both hands, she meticulously placed the dishes before Chi Yu and Yellow Foot.

Yellow Foot immediately opened his mouth and swallowed all the food on the tray in one gulp. If not for the few raps he’d received earlier, the tray itself might have been devoured as well.

Chi Yu, on the other hand, picked up a plate of pastries and walked over to the Mermaid with a look of pure innocence.

"Miss, these pastries are for you."

"Young Monarch, I am not hungry. These pastries..."

Although the Mermaid was a princess of the Merfolk, her people were essentially servants gathered by the West Sea Great Saint to attend to his needs. Now that the Great Saint had allowed the Young Master to become Yang Jing’s disciple, she didn’t dare show the slightest disrespect to Chi Yu, the Young Master’s senior sister.

Chi Yu’s expression immediately changed to one that said, ’If you don’t eat these pastries, you’re disrespecting me. And if you disrespect me, I’m going to take it out on my junior brother.’

The Mermaid had no choice but to accept the pastries. She picked one up and ate it.

Seeing the Mermaid obediently eat the pastry, Chi Yu nodded in satisfaction and went back to playing house with Yellow Foot.

Yellow Foot had thick skin and didn’t mind his senior sister’s discipline ruler in the slightest. In his eyes, any senior sister who gave him meat was a good senior sister.

Meanwhile, inside the Flying Boat, Yang Jing used his Celestial True Gang to inspect every soldier of the Demon Suppression Army, confirming that there were no signs of Demon Contamination.

He also meticulously searched the Flying Boat’s vital compartments for any hidden Celestial Demons.

Only after confirming there was truly nothing out of the ordinary did he return to the deck.

However, Yang Jing did not let down his guard. When facing a Human Demon, the slightest lapse in vigilance could create an opening for it to exploit.

When he returned to the deck, Chi Yu was trying to dress Yellow Foot in clothes sewn by the Celestial Secret Doll.

The clothes the Celestial Secret Doll had sewn were, of course, a perfect fit. But Chi Yu paid no attention to the proper order or method for putting them on, instead trying to force them on him, tearing the perfectly good garments to shreds.

Yellow Foot, however, paid no mind. His attention was completely fixed on the large platter of roasted meat before him.

Every so often, he would happily snatch up a piece and swallow it down. His stomach was like a bottomless pit; no matter how much he ate, he never felt full.

An ordinary Demon cub would have long since eaten itself to death with such gluttony, yet Yellow Foot looked as if he had only just taken the edge off his hunger.

Yang Jing was startled when he saw its astonishing appetite. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

’The Feathered Whale’s appetite is even greater than I anticipated.’

He summoned Yinjiao to confirm the Flying Boat’s position. After ensuring they were still on course, he sat down cross-legged on the deck and closed his eyes to rest.

With the West Sea Great Saint pulling them, the Flying Boat’s speed increased significantly. Moreover, they no longer needed to be on guard against the Demon Monsters and other Demons lurking in the sea.
