Fantasy: Empress Wife, Cute Kids Cause Havoc in Jiuzhou

Chapter 97 Little piggy, eat more, and once you've grown bigger, your pork head will be even tastier.

"Splash!"

In front of the small boat, and even around it, the water was violently churning. In the next instant, shadows over three feet long burst forth from the water, soaring into the air and shooting toward the small boat.

Only when they got closer did it become clear that these were a group of fish with long, pointed heads and bodies shaped like swords.

As they leapt from the water and shot forth, they emitted a terrifying Sword Intent. In that moment, they no longer seemed like Sword Beasts, but rather like actual swords capable of slashing through everything.

If one hadn't seen the appearance of these fish and only felt the Sword Intent, nobody would have thought they were fish.

Ao ao!

The little piglet covered its eyes tightly with its front hooves, its body shaking even more violently.

If it were at its peak strength, it wouldn't fear these Sword Fish at all, but now its power was less than a tenth of its peak. If it were to be hit by one of those Sword Fish, it would definitely be pierced through with holes, dying a tragic death.

"So much meat, it's all mine."

Chu Xin was overjoyed. With a wave of her snowy-white hand, several specially refined thin spikes shot out like swords.

These thin spikes, slender as needles, contained supreme Sword Intent.

They broke through the void, aiming precisely at each Sword Fish as they shot toward them.

The sound of puncturing was incessant. The seemingly fierce Sword Fish stood almost no chance against the attacks of Sword Qi and were pierced through without resisting.

What was most astonishing was that after piercing the Sword Fish, the spikes stopped on the bodies of the fish, with about five to six centimeters protruding on the outside.

After slaying these Sword Fish, Chu Xin didn't stop attacking. Instead, she started to manipulate Sword technique, sending forth Sword Qi that grazed the bodies of the Sword Fish and disappeared in a flash.

Scales fluttered down after her, falling into the Divine Sword Pond.

Some Sword Qi even slit open the bellies of the Sword Fish, scattering their entrails about.

"Brother, the big fish is coming."

With a wave of Chu Xin's snowy-white hand, the de-scaled Sword Fish flew towards Chu Chen.

"Okay, Sister."

Chu Chen responded, waving his chubby little hand. Water tornadoes made up of "dishwashing water" spiraled out, washing the flying Sword Fish before precisely placing them onto the grill.

At this moment, these Sword Fish had not only been cleaned of their scales, but their bellies had been emptied of entrails as well, and their bodies had been washed spotlessly clean.

The collaboration between the siblings was truly in perfect harmony, clearly not their first time working together.

The Artifact Spirit elder in the Artifact Spirit Space watched with his mouth agape, his face full of shock.

"Such impressive calculating abilities, such strong control over Sword Qi."

The Artifact Spirit elder murmured to himself, his tone filled with disbelief.

To manipulate Sword Qi to remove fish scales and entrails was difficult enough, but these fish were also flying through the air, which increased the difficulty by dozens of times.

To simultaneously control so much Sword Qi to de-scale and disembowel all the fish, one not only had to calculate their trajectories accurately but also had to control all the Sword Qi exquisitely without a single error, which was truly terrifying.

The Artifact Spirit elder who had guarded the Divine Sword Pavilion for many years had seen countless generations of Sword Dao Heavenly Prides, but he had never seen control as terrifying as this child's.

"Could it be that this child is the fated one of the Divine Sword Pavilion?"

The Artifact Spirit elder gazed at the scene in the painting where Chu Xin had already returned to the small boat, sitting in front of the grill with her delicate chin propped up, eagerly waiting for the roast meat, and he fell into deep thought.

"Brother, is it ready yet?"

After waiting for a short while, Chu Xin couldn't help but ask.

"Almost."

Chu Chen replied while seasoning the fish, "These big fish are much easier to grill than the piglet's heads. They'll be ready soon."

The piglet, initially enticed by the aroma and lifting its heads to look at the grill, tucked its heads back down and lay on the boat upon hearing this.

"Hurry up, hurry up, I can't wait any longer."

As Chu Xin spoke, drool began to trickle from the corners of her mouth.

It wasn't that she had never eaten fish before, but she had never encountered a Sword Beast like this. She had no idea what it would taste like.

However, judging by its size and the tenderness of its flesh, the flavor was bound to be good.

In the past, whenever Chu Chen grilled meat, Chu Xin was either hunting Demon Beasts or dealing with their carcasses, never once finishing in an instant like now and then just waiting for the meat to cook.

At this moment, she regretted not using her Sword Qi to process all the big fish gradually. If she had taken her time, at least she would have had something to do rather than suffering through such tortuous waiting.

Fortunately, Chu Chen was very skilled in grilling meat, and in no time, he finished cooking one.

"Sister, this big fish is ready. You try it first."

With a wave of his chubby little hand, Chu Chen presented the cooked fish to Chu Xin and then continued grilling the rest.

Because the space on the small boat was limited, the grill couldn't be made larger and could only accommodate around a dozen fish at a time.

He had cooked that first fish specially for his sister, fearing she would grow impatient waiting.

"Mmm! It's so delicious. This Sword Beast tastes even better than ordinary fish Demon Beasts."

Chu Xin took a bite, eating and puffing while making indistinct sounds of amazement.

"Then we need to save some Sword Beasts, or else we won't have any to eat after leaving the Divine Sword Pavilion."

Chu Chen muttered to himself as he continued grilling the fish.

Ao!

The two-headed piglet once again lifted its two heads, its eyes fixated on the grilled fish in Chu Xin's hand without blinking.

The smell is so enticing when it's not its own head and trotters being grilled.

When Chu Chen had grilled its head and trotters before, the piglet was filled with grief and fury, too upset to care about the aroma or taste of the meat.

This time, the smell of grilled Sword Fish, not its own flesh, naturally captivated it.

Seeing Chu Xin relish the food, it couldn't help but swallow its saliva.

"You want some too?"

While eating the grilled fish, Chu Xin glanced at the two-headed piglet and asked out of curiosity.

Ao ao!

The two-headed piglet nodded vigorously, desire shining in its small pig eyes.

Chu Xin looked at her grilled fish and hesitated, but ultimately she couldn't bear to give it up. With fingers greasy from the fish, she pointed to the grill and said, "I'll share a bit from the next one with you."

Ao!

The two-headed piglet nodded weakly in disappointment, thinking the little demon was going to share with it.

"Little pig, this one's for you."

Chu Chen tossed the second grilled Sword Fish onto the boat.

Ao ao!

The two-headed piglet cheered and started gnawing on the fish that was longer than its body.

"Eat up, grow bigger, and your head will taste even better."

Chu Chen watched the piglet happily munching and said contentedly.

The two-headed piglet, which had been enjoying its grilled fish, stiffened. It looked up at the little demon, then buried its head and kept eating vigorously.

At least before this little demon decided to chop off its heads, it could use these two heads to savor the grilled fish to its heart's content.
