Chapter 153: Chapter 125: River Dolphin Whale (Part 2)
From the second River Dolphin Whale onwards, the duo and their pet became even more cautious.
While there was no problem with the first step, when the poison sac was exposed in the second step, trouble emerged again.
When the Sunflower King held the poison sac, it accidentally broke again.
The third one also got stuck at the poison sac step, and as the Sunflower King was about to remove it, the sac broke.
By the time they reached the fourth, the Sunflower King learned from previous experiences and became even more careful, but as soon as the poison sac was removed from the River Dolphin Whale’s body, it split open again.
Even the fearless Sunflower King was unwilling to absorb these River Dolphin Whales tainted by broken poison sacs.
This kind of toxin is estimated to be unbearable even for High Tier Exotic Beasts.
It was only after learning from the first four attempts that they successfully separated the poison sac from the last two River Dolphin Whales.
The poison sac of the River Dolphin Whale produces a heart-paralyzing toxin; just a small amount can cause heart paralysis.
To be cautious, Ye Bai preserved this poison sac in a reagent bottle, considering that River Dolphin Whales are extremely rare and this toxin could potentially be used as a weapon in the future.
After handling, the River Dolphin Whale emitted a crystal-clear glow.
"Haha, we just happen to have Seven Treasures Mushroom and Eight Treasures Chicken, let’s have a River Dolphin Whale hot pot tonight."
Ye Bai took out the Beast Card of Eight Treasures Chicken and internally recited a release spell.
As soon as the Eight Treasures Chicken was released from the Beast Card, its neck was cut by the Sunflower King with one swift stroke.
The chicken’s blood was collected, turned into solidified blocks with sea salt.
The feathers of the Eight Treasures Chicken were plucked in one second by the Sunflower King.
Soaked in Rootless Water, the Seven Treasures Mushroom looked freshly picked shortly after.
With its leaves as blades, the Sunflower King sliced the mountain-like Seven Treasures Mushroom into thin slices instantaneously.
The Eight Treasures Chicken was directly chopped into several sections.
With Seven Treasures Mushroom and Eight Treasures Chicken stewing in Rootless Water, only a small amount of salt is needed to make it deliciously savory.
Big Gray wrapped a section cut from the Black Giant Lizard’s tail in kitchen paper to absorb the blood.
Afterward, Big Gray scalded the skin of the Black Giant Lizard’s tail with boiling water and carefully peeled it off, removing the outer black layer.
The current lizard tail was like the top-notch Wagyu beef, exuding a sweet milky aroma.
The Sunflower King swiftly sliced the meat into thin slices with a quick flick.
Ye Bai brought out an Ice Sculpture Giant Dragon picture, intending to have the Sunflower King carve an Ice Dragon.
However, Ye Bai also explained that the Ice Sculpture Giant Dragon need not be too big, just enough to hold the River Dolphin Whale’s meat.
The Sunflower King was speechless, it went to the Cultivation House and brought back the Mandala Grass King, shaped like Patrick Star, and translated the Sunflower King’s words online: "Idiot, just have the Little Snow Dog freeze an ice sculpture directly."
Ye Bai ⊙∀⊙! That’s also true.
Of course, the word ’idiot’ was added by the Mandala Grass King itself, judging by how the Sunflower King gave it two hard smacks.
This guy even looked satisfied after being smacked.
The Sunflower King sliced along the River Dolphin Whale’s fish meat, and the fish meat on either side came off.
At this point, Ye Bai took a trip out and had the Little Snow Dog condense an Ice Blade and an Ice Sculpture Giant Dragon.
Then he handed the Ice Blade to the Sunflower King.
The Sunflower King felt the bone-chilling cold, so it quickly sliced with the blade, letting wafer-thin slices of fish meat fall onto the Ice Sculpture Giant Dragon.
Beichen Celestial Wolf Slash!
Following that, the River Dolphin Whale’s fish meat was also sliced into thin pieces.
The fish head was made into a fish head stew, fish bones coated in starch and deep-fried, and the fins and tail used to accompany drinks, tasting superb.
After this, Ye Bai went to call Zhang Lingxue for dinner.
Zhang Lingxue yawned and appeared in bunny pajamas; she had been staying up late for several days. Since the Positive Rabbit appeared, their evolution won’t be like enduring Celestial Thunder anymore, the experiment’s purpose is mostly achieved.
Now it’s just a matter of studying how to evolve the Positive Rabbit and Negative Electric Rabbit to wrap things up.
"Ye Bai, where have you been, and why is there so much food?"
Zhang Lingxue, initially quite tired, perked up greatly upon seeing the table full of food.
"The Seven Treasures Mushroom and Eight Treasures Chicken have been simmering for three hours, the chicken is tender to the bone."
"I’ve skimmed off the chicken oil to use it for cooking something else later."
Ye Bai ladled a bowl of soup and handed it to Zhang Lingxue.
The soup was golden and clear, looking very fresh.
There was also a big chicken leg in the bowl.
The rich aroma attracted Zhang Lingxue, and even though the soup was still too hot, she couldn’t wait to blow on it a little before sipping a bit.
Hot, hot, hot.
Zhang Lingxue seemed to have a cat tongue, particularly sensitive to heat, unable to handle anything too hot.
But she couldn’t bear to spit out the rich soup, drinking it while grimacing from the heat.
In the next second, the God of the North Wind lightly fanned Zhang Lingxue, and she felt all the accumulated fatigue dissolve instantly, as if the God had purified the blood in her veins.
The chicken leg became boneless in an instant, emitting a robust aroma.
With a gentle bite, its succulent juices swirled in her mouth.
It was as if a rooster-like gentleman was swirling and dancing with her under the moonlight.
She lost herself in the magnificent waltz.
Before long, Zhang Lingxue finished the chicken leg, not sparing even the Eight Treasures Chicken bones.
"Teacher, this is River Dolphin Whale fish meat."
"You should try it."
She saw the River Dolphin Whale meat arranged on the Ice Sculpture Dragon, forming the dragon’s scales.
Zhang Lingxue picked up a piece with chopsticks, thin as a cicada’s wing, and transparent.
With her eyes closed, she took a big bite of the fish meat.
The springy texture, coupled with the incomparable taste, brought Zhang Lingxue to the peak of deliciousness.
She felt like every cell in her body was cheering joyfully.
"Delicious!"
After blurting out, Zhang Lingxue covered her mouth, feeling this was somewhat improper.
"Haha, if you like it, eat more, Teacher, there’s plenty."
Ye Bai smiled and said.
"Of course, you can have it as sashimi or as a hotpot, just swish the River Dolphin Whale meat for five seconds."
Zhang Lingxue picked up another piece of fish meat, giving it a five-second swish in the hotpot.
The originally translucent fish meat turned milky white.
As she chewed, a crunchy texture burst forth, the crispness of fish blending with savory chicken broth.
I can’t stand it, I can’t stand it, Zhang Lingxue felt the River Dolphin Whale leap across her tongue.
Even from a single hotpot meal, she tasted the various flavors of the River Dolphin Whale.
At this moment, Zhang Lingxue’s gaze fell on the lizard meat nearby.
"Ye Bai, what breed of Wagyu is this?"
Zhang Lingxue was already reaching for a piece before she finished speaking, swirling it in the hotpot.
As the meat turned pink, Zhang Lingxue quickly scooped it out.
The seemingly thin strip was surprisingly chewy, its flavor unfolding with each bite.
"By the way, Ye Bai, I just received news that due to the Phoenix Cup incident, causing national concern in the Flame Country, they decided to cancel city-level competitions and proceed directly to provincial-level ones."
"The safety factor is higher at the provincial level."
"During this time, focus on learning Pet Beast Healing and Pet Beast Cultivation."
Zhang Lingxue suddenly reminded Ye Bai.
"Understood." Ye Bai nodded.
"If you pass the Phoenix Cup and Young Qilin Cup, you can enter Imperial University without taking the entrance exams."
But hearing Zhang Lingxue’s words, Ye Bai shook his head.
"Teacher, I still plan to take the entrance exams."
"Shen Mountain Middle School nurtured me for so long, waiting for this moment."
"I aim to become the national top scorer, bringing fame to Shen Mountain Middle School."
Upon hearing Ye Bai’s determination, Zhang Lingxue gave a thumbs up.
"By the way, how’s the training of your Pet Beasts going, do you need my guidance?"
"I’m quite satisfied with this meal, so I’d like to give you some personal tips."
"Oh, my Vine Cat evolved into a Vine Lion, how about a battle?"
Ye Bai nodded, "Sure, no problem."
He also wanted to test the increase in power of his Little Charcoal Dog, after obtaining the Flame Treasure Pearl’s Fire Skills.
