Wait, How Did My Digital Girlfriend Become a Sword Immortal? Chapter 747: You Need to Apologize

Chapter 747: You Need to Apologize

Outside the Demon Sealing Pagoda.

A group of side ingredients like scallions, onions, and star anise were queuing up and madly dashing into the Demon Sealing Pagoda.

They were running with legs that had grown underneath them.

When they reached the opening of the Well of Heaven, these side ingredients and seasoning packets leaped in with a bound.

Chen Niu could only see the situation at the pagoda's entrance. Even with his extensive experience, this scene was a bit too bizarre for him.

He had seen meat running on the ground.

He had also seen vegetables running on the ground.

But seasonings running on the ground? That was truly a first!

The key point was, the Demon Sealing Pagoda was clearly not a place for cooking!

His intuition and common sense told him that cooking inside the Demon Sealing Pagoda was unlikely, but everything before his eyes kept slapping his face repeatedly—if it wasn't cooking, what were these soy sauce and chicken essence packets with legs running all over the place?! It couldn't possibly be that the demons inside the Demon Sealing Pagoda loved eating this stuff, could it?

"This Sword Cultivator... what in the world is he doing inside..." Chen Niu scratched his head raw trying to figure it out.

Since he couldn't figure it out, the best course of action now was to remain unchanged to cope with the ever-changing situation.

No matter what this person was doing inside the Demon Sealing Pagoda, whether cooking or farming, he would eventually have to come out.

With this thought, Chen Niu closed his eyes again and feigned sleep, simply pretending not to see those lively, bouncing ingredients.

But a nameless anger had already welled up in his heart.

He was waiting outside, while the Sword Cultivator was cooking inside, probably using those demon beasts as ingredients, already feasting on delicious food.

Living quite the comfortable little life!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got...

Countless schemes to not just kill Chen Huaian, but to torture him to the point where he would beg for death, surged through Chen Niu's mind at this moment.

Inside the Demon Sealing Pagoda, Chen Huaian was stir-frying.

The inventor of this wok was absolutely a genius.

The wok could change size according to the ingredients. Based on the connection he had established with this wok, this thing could probably stew even a Kun fish.

The most crucial point was its convenience.

At this moment, he was very far from the wok, yet he only needed to wiggle his fingers to complete the tossing motion.

*Clang! Clang!*

This sound was Chen Huaian tossing the wok. The giant red egg and various ingredients and seasonings tumbled inside the wok. Each time the red egg fell and hit the wok, it would make a "clang" sound.

Visibly, a flame with a deeper, richer hue gradually churned within the wok.

That flame originated from the surrounding sea of fire but was distinct from it, like an advanced version of the sea of fire's flames. Even from far away, even just looking at it with his eyes, Chen Huaian actually felt a burning pain in his soul.

"Did the fire from the sea of fire get upgraded through the wok's cooking?"

Chen Huaian narrowed his eyes.

He saw the red egg becoming redder, even a bit blackish-red.

Just like... it was about to get charred.

Simultaneously, an intoxicating, delicate fragrance gradually began to permeate the upper levels of the Demon Sealing Pagoda.

The corner of Chen Huaian's mouth twitched.

Please don't let him actually stir-fry the auspicious beast into a dish, that would be a great sin.

But... it smells so good!

It must be delicious!

However, that situation did not occur.

As the flames on the wok grew increasingly fierce.

The giant red egg, which had shown no movement until now, finally exhibited unusual activity.

*Crack—! Crack—!*

The sound of eggshells breaking rang out continuously.

The aroma of scrambled eggs in the air grew richer and more intense.

Chen Huaian also held his breath with a serious expression—he was afraid he wouldn't be able to resist swallowing his saliva when the auspicious beast appeared.

"Who—!"

An angry roar suddenly exploded from the wok.

The voice sounded like a little girl who hadn't been weaned yet.

"Who dares to treat this queen as an ingredient! What audacity!"

Chen Huaian shrank his neck back.

He could vaguely see a wet bird's head poking out from inside the giant red egg. When it first emerged, it had very few feathers on its body, but as it struggled to push out half its body, crimson flames erupted around it—the flames became its feathers.

The fledgling stretched its body within the flames, its wings slowly spreading open. Its newborn frame appeared exceptionally supple and powerful within the fire—it was no longer a fledgling. In the baptism of flames, it was clearly a divine bird being reborn from the fire.

And as this divine bird grew at a rapid pace, the surrounding sea of fire was completely absorbed by it, seemingly becoming nourishment for its growth.

"Is this... a Vermilion Bird's Physical Shell?" Chen Huaian muttered to himself as he observed the divine bird's appearance.

His voice was very soft, almost only audible to himself.

Yet, it made the divine bird, which was standing on the eggshell stretching its feathers, ruffle its plumage in agitation.

"Bullshit!"

The divine bird turned its head and glared at Chen Huaian, cursing angrily: "I'm a phoenix! A phoenix, understand? How dare you compare me to that mongrel chicken, the Vermilion Bird! Are you tired of living?!"

Chen Huaian: "..."

Oh, so it's a phoenix.

Calls herself "this old lady," yet uses the voice of someone not yet weaned.

Most importantly, shouldn't a phoenix, as an auspicious beast, have such a fiery temper?

And even curses?

Honestly, it somewhat shattered his beautiful impression of auspicious beasts.

"You little thief, was it you who wanted to cook this old lady with this wok?!"

The phoenix looked at the giant wok beneath its feet and the soup stewed from its own eggshell.

Suddenly, it felt it smelled quite good.

It subconsciously took a sip of the soup, and its eyes immediately lit up.

"Oh wow, so fresh! Who would have thought this old lady's flavor could be so fresh!

Truly worthy of this queen! Absolutely amazing!"

The phoenix placed its hands on its hips and threw its head back laughing.

But then its tone shifted sharply, glaring viciously at Chen Huaian: "But even so, it does not forgive your evil deed of wanting to cook this old lady! Prepare to die! This queen will leave you a complete corpse burned to ashes!"

The phoenix spread its wings, a violent sea of fire gathering behind it.

There was no doubt that in the next second, this sea of fire would crash down on Chen Huaian's head.

Chen Huaian: "Õ_Õ…"

Regarding the current situation.

Out of trust in the Dragon Soul.

He released a wisp of the Ancestral Dragon's aura towards the phoenix.

He had done this before when the phoenix was still an egg, attempting to awaken the phoenix with the Ancestral Dragon's aura, but the Phoenix Egg showed no reaction.

Now that the phoenix had hatched, surely it wouldn't fail to recognize the Dragon Soul's aura, right?

Pale golden dragon patterns swept towards the phoenix.

The phoenix, which had been gathering a sea of fire to silence the witness, abruptly froze.

In its crimson eyes fixed on Chen Huaian, killing intent gradually transformed into confusion, confusion gradually turned into awkwardness, and its gaze instantly became clear.

The phoenix nonchalantly dispersed the sea of fire behind it.

It stood still in place, pondering for a long while.

Then it flew in front of Chen Huaian, lifted its chin, sized Chen Huaian up and down a few times, and then declared righteously: "Apologize!"

"Apologize?!" Chen Huaian was stunned: "Why?"

He hadn't done anything to the phoenix, why should he apologize?

The phoenix pointed at the giant wok, then turned its head to stare at Chen Huaian:

"You stir-fried me, shouldn't you apologize?"

Chen Huaian: "..."

What kind of outrageous statement is that.

"This Venerable One wasn't stir-frying, this was This Venerable One's method of awakening you." Chen Huaian spread his hands: "If This Venerable One hadn't given you a stir-fry, who knows how many years you would have remained asleep."
