Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect-Chapter 1022 - 522: Joining the Crew

Although blind, disfigured, burned with scorched skin and flesh, body covered with wounds, after Chan Zi woke up, his reaction was quite calm, he took a sip of soup and smacked his lips,

"Hmm? This meat tastes off? Is it really snake stew?"

Then he heard Chen Xuantian beside him say,

"Oh oh, it’s bear. I caught a bear and threw it in the pot."

Chan Zi was curious,

"Bear? But the bear that Master caught was tough, old, and fishy? This meat is quite fatty, like pork, doesn’t even seem fishy at all..."

"Hey, now that you mention it... You guessed it. It’s pork! Here, have another piece of tendon!"

"Ugh—"

Chan Zi listened to the commotion next door from the patients,

"What’s wrong with him? Why does he keep vomiting?"

Chen Xuantian served him another bowl,

"No problem, no problem, he ate too much, got internal injuries, everyone who’s weak reacts like this.

But don’t mind him, you have external injuries, you need collagen supplements, it’s the time to grow your body, you have to eat more.

Come, come, there’s lots of meat! If it’s not enough, I’ll add more!"

"Oh oh! Then I won’t hold back!"

Chan Zi was happy, since Yang Yunzhao was over there vomiting, he didn’t hold back either, eating large chunks of meat, with greasy mouth.

Chen Xuantian liked this kind of obedient and easy to feed ones, smilingly put all the meat into his bowl, letting Chan Zi eat slowly, cutting some fresh meat pieces into the pot, covering it with a lid to stew. Then he pulled Yang Yunzhao to the riverbank to rinse his mouth and take a breath.

"Ugh—"

Chen Xuantian laughed at him with his hands behind his back,

"Hey, General Yang, what’s this, can’t handle just this much? Weren’t you boasting about ambitions of eating Hu people’s meat, laughing and drinking the blood of Xiongnu?"

Yang Yunzhao panted heavily, face pale,

"I, I... I’m fine... I can still eat..."

Seeing him still pretending after vomiting it all up, Chen Xuantian didn’t expose him, just smiled,

"So I’ve been telling you, not everyone can be a partner of justice. Only after enduring hardship can one be above others. Now you know the difference."

Yang Yunzhao lay silently by the water.

Chen Xuantian smiled and squatted beside him, chewing on a dogtail grass,

"I’m telling you, young master, you’ve played enough, right? The world outside is just this gruesome, terrifying, and disgusting, either you eat or be eaten. If you can’t handle it, better go home and watch the door.

Honestly, the door your family watches is quite important, everyone is a cog, needed wherever it belongs, watching the door is also making a contribution."

Yang Yunzhao gritted his teeth and shook his head,

"Don’t try to provoke me! I can do it! If he can eat, I can... ugh—"

Chen Xuantian shook his head,

"How is this provoking you, I’m advising you. Why compare to him, he’s different from us.

If you really can’t stomach it, you don’t have to force yourself to swallow, I’ve got bread here."

Yang Yunzhao turned to glare at him,

"You didn’t mention you had bread earlier!"

"You never asked."

Chen Xuantian stuffed the bread to him, smilingly,

"Besides, without letting you try, how would you know you can’t swallow it? Some people just have a taste for it."

Yang Yunzhao chewed the bread dryly,

"You... have a taste for it?"

Chen Xuantian shrugged with hands pocketed,

"Ultimately, it’s just fat, vitamins, proteins, I used to be like you, picky, now I’m not picky, eat everything."

Yang Yunzhao doubted,

"But you didn’t eat much?"

Chen Xuantian chuckled,

"You thought everyone is like you, not knowing their own limits.

This pot full of Divinity Transformation Treasure, if I took it to the mountains to refine slowly, after hundred years, at least I’d produce a furnace of all-powerful Great Returning Pill, but unfortunately, I don’t have the time or energy to fuss, so this good thing gets wasted.

This raw meat that washes and stews is only something a Nascent Soul True Monarch or Body Refining Martial God can handle. For someone like you, eating it won’t even digest, your stomach isn’t big enough like theirs, can’t hold it all and it’ll be vomited out." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Yang Yunzhao looked back at the warehouse.

Chen Xuantian chuckled again,

"So, I told you, he’s different from you, know what being gifted means, know what a top predator is? Don’t be fooled by how he looks exactly like a mortal, harmless to everyone, that’s just a disguise in his juvenile phase, integrating into the crowd for self-preservation.

But still young, small, and so youthful, he’s an apex predator, whatever he gets, he eats, never refuses, thrives on more, a beast growing stronger, evolving, surpassing all beings, an alien.

With natural talent as good as his, in my past and present life together, I’ve only seen five."

"Five, that’s quite a lot..."

Although he couldn’t understand many of the professional terms, Yang Yunzhao grasped the meaning, anyway, Chan Zi was impressive, he sighed,

"Didn’t expect to meet by chance, a millennial Daoist..."

Chen Xuantian snorted,

"Hmph, who said he’s the best Daoist in the world? There’s always someone better, sky above sky. Even those with better talent than him, I’ve seen.

Truly the number one, is self-taught, masters all magic, can continue even if magic is broken, it’s not a matter of ability, but willingness.

Whether you’re a dragon, you must coil, if a tiger, you must crouch, just even the strongest can’t create waves. You guys are far from it!"

Yang Yunzhao looked at him,

"You weren’t talking about yourself, were you?"

Chen Xuantian glanced at him,

"If it were me, would I be here tending to you two invalids? Back to the point, are you sure you won’t go home?"

Yang Yunzhao turned his head,

"I’m not going back."
