Chapter 596

Removing it’s intelligence
Translated by Crystal of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

Once he returned to the small wood cabin, Ling Xiao was still inside recuperating.

You XiaoMo took a look inside and the Metal Swallowing Beast, who he left behind to take care of the house, leaped into his lap with it’s four stubby legs. The life without his stupid owner was way too boring.

Ever since the Water Elemental Essence had been tamed by You XiaoMo, he let out the Metal Swallowing Beast and the Golden Winged Insects. In this past month or so, they had been having the feasts of their lives, and became picky as a result. Every time he came back from hunting, they’re mouths started to water.

You XiaoMo threw out the Metal Swallowing Beast from his lap. The latter, as if as light as a feather, made a mid-air turn and landed gracefully on the floor. That was the result of the past two weeks of training.

The two Golden Winged Insects flew around the Metal Swallowing Beast, as they chuckled at his misfortune. Metal Swallowing Beast simply shook his head pridefully.

You XiaoMo was too tired to deal with them and carried his Red-Crowned Turkey to make food.

The Red-Crowned Turkey was bigger than a normal turkey, so it was harder to deal with, but it was filling, as much as three normal turkeys. Ever since his beasts joined their dinner table, they fell in love with the dish, Beggar’s Chicken. He had to make two or three each time for them to eat.

That was the real reason for the quickly depleting turkey’s in the forest.

With proficiency, You XiaoMo killed the Red-Crowned Turkey, took out its insides and even used his spiritual water to clean it. With that, the dish would taste even better and it had a healing effect, which he discovered later.

Once he cleaned it, he stuffed it with all kinds of spices. Other than the ones in his dimension, he also found some in the forest. Luckily he was able to find replacements for most of the ingredients he didn’t have before. With the preparations completed, he calculated the time and buried the turkey into the ground.

Once he turned to the cabin, You XiaoMo told the Metal Swallowing Beast and Ping Pong to take at look outside. After that, he took the Metal Swallowing Beast and started his daily cultivation.

The energies left in Xing Qi’s Life Crystal had all been absorbed by him. He hadn’t just been cooking dinner and catching turkeys, he had also been cultivating with the energies in the Life Crystal.

However, the energy required to go from three stars to four stars was more than he had imagined.

Like a bucket that could fill a ton of water, the energies left in that Life Crystal couldn’t even fill a tenth of it. If it wasn’t for the fact that the Wolf of Greed was LanQiu’s brother, he would have really lost to the temptation of absorbing it as well.

Although, he figured that LanQiu wouldn’t blame him for it, whenever he the thought crossed his mind, he felt like he had no face to see LanQiu. So, he held his temptation in check and threw his Life Crystal to a corner of his dimension.

But, ever since they came to this island, You XiaoMo wasn’t in nearly a rush as before.

They had stayed here for over a month, there wasn’t a shadow, not even a ghost of a shadow here. From that, one could tell how remote this island was. Since that was the case, they could easily wait until Ling Xiao’s wounds healed before leaving. They had the time. Thus, with that thought in mind, You XiaoMo felt free to stay here.
