Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1016 - 1017: Secret

"Do you need my help?"

After strolling with Qi Chen, Dou Yanlan returned to the rockface and found Feng Yuan missing. After searching for a while, she saw them busy below and walked down the crystal steps. Pointing at the ingredients, Feng Yuan said,

"Over there, choose whatever you like from the ingredients. How about making a ’Beloved Wife’s Bento’ for Qi Chen?"

"What are you talking about!"

Qi Chen said loudly with a flushed face, dissatisfied. Dou Yanlan walked to the ingredients, looked at them, and asked,

"These materials are fine, but... what are these things?"

Looking at the flowers in the pile of ingredients, she felt strange. Why were they there? Although many flowers were edible, this was too much...

"Leave those flowers there for now; they were prepared for it to handle later."

Feng Yuan glanced at the Flower Leaf Child who was busy with Yun You. For some reason, he thought that the creature seemed to enjoy being with Yun You. If one did not know the situation, one might think it was Yun You’s Spirit Beast.

"Do you think there’s an afterlife?"

Veronia, who had suddenly appeared next to Feng Yuan, whispered. Surprised, Feng Yuan looked at Veronia strangely and asked,

"Don’t you know about it?"

"I know... but... why can’t the legends of humans be true?"

With a low voice, Veronia spoke somewhat uncomfortably; looking oddly back at Veronia, Feng Yuan, confused, asked,

"What’s wrong with you? Have you encountered something? But that doesn’t seem right..."

It had always been by his side; would he not know if something had happened? But about reincarnation, didn’t all Divine Beasts understand it? Agunas glanced at Veronia and flicked his tail, saying,

"Relying on reincarnation is more difficult than directly pulling the dead back from the river of time."

"Do you think everyone is like you, a God of Time?"

Veronia glared at Agunas and said with annoyance, turning the potato in her hand,

"Besides, I don’t have the need to revive them, even though it’s hard to accept... but maybe bringing them back to life isn’t such a good thing."

Even if it was not a Time Series Spirit Beast, it could guess that reviving someone after so long might not be a good thing for them. If they could integrate into modern society, that would be one thing, but if not... Moreover, their ideas and the modern world were so different, could they really change that easily?

Looking at her dress, Veronia was unsure, but knew it was probably... very difficult.

"Why do you ask then?"

Feng Yuan asked puzzledly, but Veronia did not explain. Agunas flicked his tail and looked at Veronia with slightly furrowed brows, wondering if her sudden inquiry meant something was happening.

"So these petals are for a cold salad?"

Seeing the Flower Leaf Child pouring dressing into a bowl full of petals, Dou Yanlan mused. Although it still seemed a bit strange, it wasn’t unacceptable, but would the taste really be good? She doubted.

"What’s wrong?"

Seeing Little Ji, who had been quietly following him, move his head and look around as if searching for something, Feng Yuan asked curiously. Before Agunas could speak, a bunch of flowers suddenly grew between Feng Yuan and Little Ji, and without Agunas having to explain, Feng Yuan knew who had come.

"Nagna, you came too?"

Floating in front of Little Ji, Nagna emitted a hearty laugh, pointing a stem and the cluster of flowers quickly withered away, falling on Big Cat’s head. Nagna chuckled joyfully; seeing him, Feng Yuan smiled slightly and remarked,

"He really is a little guy who can be happy at any time."

Agunas looked at Nagna and said,

"Lorraine Tower has protected it too well; it hasn’t grown much over such a long time."

Hearing Agunas’s words, Feng Yuan glanced at Little Ji and said playfully,

"And how is that an issue? Isn’t it also quite good this way? Only after losing something do people cherish the beauty of the past. Or are you, Little Crocodile, perhaps jealous?"

"What am I jealous of? I’m living quite well now."

Agunas responded defensively like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and Feng Yuan looked at Agunas saying.

"Seeing such a big reaction from you, it seems like I hit the mark~"

"No!"

Turning around, Agunas drifted away to another place. Xiao Ji looked at Feng Yuan with some confusion, not quite understanding why Agunas had suddenly left. Nagna, sitting on Big Cat’s head, tilted her head in confusion. Why did Agunas run away as soon as it arrived? Could it be that it didn’t like her?

"Want to try this?"

With a mischievous grin, Feng Yuan casually picked up a bright red petal, about to hand it to Nagna, when Veronia directly snatched the petal from his hand and said,

"I’ll take this."

"Be careful of someone’s nasty sense of humor; that thing is pretty scary."

Turning around, Veronia cryptically spoke to Nagna and walked away, tossing the petal into the trash can as she passed it. In her view, that thing was inedible—despite probably having no side effects other than its horrific taste, she didn’t think anyone could stand the flavor.

She had personally seen Feng Yuan sneakily adding all sorts of weird stuff into those petals, a skillful technique that made her doubt whether this guy did it often.

Nagna looked at Veronia somewhat puzzled, not quite grasping her meaning. However, Xiao Ji, who knew Feng Yuan well, glared at him and let out an eagle-like cry as if warning him not to mess around just when Qi Chen passed by and said with resignation,

"Why don’t you stop bullying it?"

Although he knew Nagna’s strength completely outweighed his, the naive and innocent look on the creature prompted a protective desire in him, and Feng Yuan, who wanted to play a prank on Nagna, naturally became the villain.

"What do you mean I’m bullying it..."

Pouting, Feng Yuan said somewhat aggrievedly, but moments later he transformed into Little Husky and pounced onto Big Cat, frolicking with Nagna, prompting Qi Chen to smile helplessly.

"Try this."

Dou Yanlan handed a dessert to Qi Chen, who carefully put it in his mouth and after a while said,

"Your cooking is really good, not inferior to that guy’s."

Hearing Qi Chen’s words, Dou Yanlan chuckled softly and said,

"But this is actually his doing."

Stunned, Qi Chen scratched his head and smiled. Dou Yanlan picked up a less attractive looking dessert and said,

"This is what I made. Want to try?"

Looking at Qi Chen and Dou Yanlan sitting on wooden stump chairs, feeding each other, Cen Chudie sighed as she watched Little Husky playfully chasing Nagna. Yun You walked over and said softly,

"What’s wrong? Something bothering you?"

"Sort of... you tell me, why does everyone else come in pairs?"

Yun You laughed and looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao making small desserts with Su Wen and Little Husky chasing Big Cat, uttering cat sounds, and said,

"But there’s only one pair here, right?"

"Tsk, you don’t know... in our school..." fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

Cen Chudie suddenly couldn’t help but vent all her accumulated grievances, and Yun You stood by with a smile, listening quietly. After a long time, Cen Chudie took a deep breath and turned to Yun You, saying,

"Thanks, I feel much better now."

With a smile, Yun You softly said,

"If something displeases you, talking about it might make you feel better."

"Excuse me, excuse me!"

Little Husky dashed by, loudly shouting at Yun You and Cen Chudie. Following behind, Xiao Ji and the others were chasing him. The Venomous Salamander lizard positioned itself in front of Cen Chudie, flicking its tail as if trying to hit Little Husky, who agilely dodged the sweeping tail and, with a dissatisfied twist of the head, looked back at the lizard, then changed direction to continue avoiding the pursuing Xiao Ji and others.

"That guy is having so much fun..."

Cen Chudie watched the chasing Spirit Beasts and Feng Yuan and said somewhat speechlessly, not understanding what was so fun about this. Su Wen fed a freshly made small dessert to Qingyu, chatting happily about something, and Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at the chasing Spirit Beasts, amusedly saying,

"He really does have peculiar interests."

The Sky Blue Plate quietly watched, completely uninterested in their chasing game.
