The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 568 - 565: Her, and Me

Aiyo, my goodness, what on earth did it do wrong? It just wanted to have a meal and yet...

Bat Shadow felt something bad was about to happen and turned to run.

But a ghost claw materialized out of nowhere and grabbed Bat Shadow in an instant.

"Mercy, my lord."

By now, Bat Shadow’s guts were filled with regret.

If it had known that this being was related to that little ghost, it would rather starve to death than entertain the idea of targeting the little ghost.

Wasn’t it said that this character has already been sealed?

True enough, rumors are misleading not just for humans but also for ghosts.

But Gui Hu was not one to forgive.

Daring to covet his belongings, this Ghost Beast must be tired of living.

Bat Shadow struggled a few times within the clutches of the ghost claw.

As the ghost claw retracted, Xin Lin stood with her back to Gui Hu, only to hear a sound akin to a rodent chewing, sending shivers down her scalp.

The Pride Corpse wouldn’t really... eat that guy, would it?

Could that thing... taste good?

Definitely not.

What if the Pride Corpse, still hungry, turns around and eats her next?

Xin Lin felt an overwhelming urge to run.

Just as she lifted her left foot, Gui Hu turned around, his blue eyes locking onto her.

"Uh... did you... have enough to eat?"

Xin Lin blurted out the words in her heart.

As soon as she spoke, Xin Lin regretted it.

What business of yours is it whether someone else is full!

In case he truly hadn’t enough, she might just get gulped down in one bite.

Gui Hu stared at her, startling Xin Lin into blurting out again.

"How about, some roasted egg?"

Inside Sealing Spirit Talisman No.2, the Overlord Egg was trembling.

(Wuu wuu, Mommy, I am thy baby!!!!)

Gui Hu kept staring.

"Roasted sweet potato." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Gui Hu’s thin lips moved slightly, and out popped three words.

Seriously, why should they feast on Braised Pork Belly buns and roasted sweet potatoes every day while he could only smell their food from inside the Sealing Spirit Talisman?

Damn little hen, not even knowing to bring some as a filial offering to him.

In an extremely unpleasant mood, Gui Hu stared at Xin Lin unkindly.

Roasted sweet potato?

Huh?

Xin Lin blinked, thinking she must have misheard.

After a moment, Gui Hu calmly ate the sweet potatoes Xin Lin had brought back for the Overlord Egg and herself as a midnight snack.

It must be said that as a Pride Corpse, Gui Hu had quite a spectacle while eating.

The sweet potatoes grown by Xin Lin were pink and sticky.

Peel away the red skin to reveal the yellow flesh, steaming with a sweet, hot aroma, soft and delightful on the tongue, carrying a woody scent—the sight of fast-eating Gui Hu devouring sweet potatoes was no less quick.

Both good-looking and swift.

In no time, he polished off a dozen sweet potatoes.

Uh... Xin Lin watched from the side and thought to herself.

Is the Pride Corpse becoming more inclined to worldly foods?

Maybe tomorrow, she should negotiate swapping out Wind Breath Roast Pork for sweet potatoes and Delicious Spiritual Food Buns, considering they don’t require Heaven-defying Value.

After finishing, Gui Hu’s pale blue eyes turned a lighter shade of blue.

Xin Lin had been around the Pride Corpse for a while and understood his temper quite well.

The guy never shows his emotions, his face always a scowl.

However, the color of his eyes can reflect his mood.

Seeing the expression of the Pride Corpse, she correctly guessed he was probably in a good mood.

"Pride Corpse, what was that bat creature exactly? How does it know about the Fu Tian Pill?"

Xin Lin didn’t really understand the origin of the Fu Tian Pill.

But from Bat Shadow’s words, it seemed that plenty of others knew about it too, which meant she might be in trouble.
