BXBX NOVEL Chapter 172 A Popular Star
"I\'ll offer you 20kg of meat and some seasoning condiments for you to cook here." Hung Chao offered, enticing Ping Gong to give him one of the beef jerky strips.
Ping Gong pondered for a moment.
20kg of meat was indeed enticing for him who had not tasted any meat in the past years.
However, when he recalled the mythical effect of the beef jerky strip and how he could use this to please his tigress at home, Ping Gong adamantly resolute his decision.
He shook his head and brushed his hand away from his shoulder. "Sorry, Hung Chao, but these beef jerky strips are not for sale. If you really are that desperate, then you should offer something valuable to fellow cultivator Jing."
"Tch, if my offer had worked before, then would I have asked you?" Hung Chao clicked his tongue in annoyance. "I don\'t really get him. How could he reject a 2nd rank healing pill? Not even the other 5 clans would say no to such a pill."
As the two of them continued to converse with each other, they had failed to realize they had been eavesdropped on by Jiang Ming and Yang Liqin.
Jiang Ming had a sound concealment surrounding them, so the other people could not hear what they were talking about.
"Beef jerky strips? What are those two talking about?" Yang Liqin asked in curiosity.
"I don\'t know… maybe they are just talking gibberish like any friends would do." Jiang Ming shrugged, not willing to reveal his secret snack.
Yang Liqin narrowed her eyes with a displeased expression. Clearly, she was not happy about him always keeping her in the dark for no reason.
"You are really annoying sometimes, Jing." She commented.
"Annoying, but you like it that way." Jiang Ming smirked cheekily. It was a shame that his smirk was hidden in the mask. Otherwise, Yang Liqin was sure to kick him off from Kractacle\'s head.
Sometime later, Jiang Ming retrieved two beef jerky strips from his inventory.
"T-This is what they are fighting for…" He said nervously.
\'Tch, imagine threatening me for not being able to ravage you. Just how low can you get, aunt?\' He cursed silently.
Yang Liqin snatched the two beef jerky strips and was dumbfounded for a moment.
"Spiritual beast meat plus some medicinal herbs as seasoning condiments?" She said in a shocked tone.
"Is this the reason why Ping Gong managed to have a breakthrough?"
"Yes and no. The beef jerky strips are indeed more potent than a regular breakthrough pill, but it was still Ping Gong\'s effort in the end. According to my calculation, he should have broken through a long time ago, but it\'s probably because of certain circumstances that prevented him from doing so."
"Certain Circumstances?" Yang Liqin raised an eyebrow in confusion.
"Could it be the tigress that Ping Gong kept on mentioning?" She asked.
Jiang Ming shrugged his shoulders.
How was he supposed to know about his family affair when they are not even close, to begin with?
"Anyway, you should have a taste of the beef jerky strip to recover your stamina." Jiang Ming suggested, changing the topic of the conversation.
Yang Liqin nodded her head.
She lifted her mask slightly up to reveal her beautiful lips. Slowly, she took a bite out of the beef jerky strip.
As soon as she tasted it, she felt the spiritual meat melting in her tongue and a large amount of spiritual qi entering her body. It was such a miraculous bite that she couldn\'t stop with just a single bite.
In an instant, two beef jerky strips were completely finished by Yang Liqin as she extended her hand out.
Jiang Ming smiled bitterly as he knew this would have happened.
The beef jerky strip could be considered a top gourmet dish that was not only tasty to the mouth but also beneficial to a cultivator.
It was a dish he had invented in Cultivation Omega to solve the solution to his hunger while not decreasing his cultivation time.
As such, this dish was completely unique and only he knew how to produce it.
Without a proper recipe, no one else could produce nor replicate the same effect of the beef jerky strip.
"Yiqin, the beef jerky strips are limited, so please don\'t eat anymore." Jiang Ming laughed awkwardly, giving her another three strips.
At this rate, he would be running out of beef jerky strips to eat when watching a clown show.
"Are you trying to call me fat?" Yang Liqin asked angrily.
Jiang Ming hurriedly raised his hand up in surrender and remained silent.
Only an idiot would reply to such a trap question.
Sometime later, Yang Liqin finished her beef jerky strips again and tried to act coyly.
"Jing, I want more~" She whispered seductively. Her hands started touching his chest as she twirled her finger around it.
Jiang Ming twitched his mouth in disbelief.
"Stop giving me that look." Jiang Ming grabbed her hand and lectured her.
"If you continue to do that, then I\'m afraid you will become the star in this crowd." He added.
"A star in the crowd?"
"Yes, a popular star that gets her behind pounded thoroughly."
Yang Liqin gasped in surprise as she quickly pulled away from Jiang Ming.
She covered her chest with her hands and shouted, "Jing, you are so perverted and naughty. I hate you!"
When she said that, she had purposely deactivated the sound concealment, causing everyone in the crowd to be able to hear her words.
"..."
\'This aunt of mine. She\'s trying to defame me and attack my integrity!\' Jiang Ming exclaimed inwardly.
Luckily for him though, the crowd only thought it was them flirting with each other.
Hence, not a single person bothered nor cared about the shouting from Yang Liqin.
"Tch, this bunch of people is really heartless. I shouted so loud, but they didn\'t even care." Yang Liqin clicked her tongue in annoyance.
"Enough playing, Yiqin." Jiang Ming flicked on her mask and reprimanded.
"The transparent barrier is about to disappear."
