You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 116

Chapter 116

Under the elevated platform, dozens of Flood Dragons, Pythons, and strange serpents were neatly arranged on the surface of the lake.

Most of their bodies were submerged under the lake's surface, only revealing half of their upper bodies, eagerly gazing towards the three huge wooden barrels in front of Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan glanced at the demonic beast flesh inside the barrels, swiftly picking up piece after piece and tossing them near the designated area for the Flood Dragons and serpents.

Although the other Flood Dragons seemed restless, instinctively desiring to compete for the demonic beast meat, after Lu Xuan's taming for some time, they managed to control their innate desires and obediently stayed within the specified area.

These Flood Dragons were aware that as long as they remained calm and stayed in the designated area, they would undoubtedly feast on a sufficient amount of delicious demonic beast meat. However, if they attempted to compete, their bellies would remain empty at best and might even end up being ruthlessly suspended mid-air by Lu Xuan.

As the demonic beast meat in the barrels gradually diminished, Lu Xuan pondered silently while looking at the three empty barrels.

Even though he could feed the Flood Dragons meat that they found delicious or that promoted their growth and evolution, the substantial quantity of demonic beast meat in the barrels wasn't arranged according to his intentions. This resulted in either an excess or a shortage of suitable demonic beast meat for feeding the Flood Dragons and serpents, ultimately forcing them to be nourished with ordinary demonic beast meat.

He decided to approach Huang Yuan, responsible for this area of Thousand Dragon Lake, to specially craft a menu for the Flood Dragons and serpents he raised.

In a spacious stone house, Huang Yuan, whose Qi cultivation was at its peak, was conversing with two advanced Qi cultivators. Upon seeing Lu Xuan, he smiled and greeted him.

"Lu Junior Brother, it's been a while. Is raising the Flood Dragons going smoothly? Have those creatures caused any trouble for Junior Brother?"

"It's been relatively smooth. Those Flood Dragons and demonic beasts are quite obedient."

"I've come this time to seek help from Senior Brother Huang."

"Please, go ahead and tell me."

Huang Yuan spoke, his expression serious.

"Senior Brother Huang, during the process of raising the Flood Dragons, I noticed some inconsistencies in the demonic beast meat stored in the barrels. Hence, I wish to create a menu for those Flood Dragons and serpents, following which they can be fed."

"Haha!"

As Lu Xuan finished speaking, a tall and thin cultivator in the stone house couldn't help but chuckle.

"This Junior Brother, those Flood Dragons will rush in to snatch the demonic beast meat once it's thrown in. What use is it to craft a menu for them?"

The thin cultivator chuckled and said to Lu Xuan with a smile.

Huang Yuan glared sternly at him and then turned back to Lu Xuan, speaking in a deep voice.

"Lu Junior Brother, although this Junior Brother's words are inappropriate, his reasoning is not entirely wrong."

"When you raise those Flood Dragons, you only need to throw the demonic beast meat in, and they will all rush to grab it. Specially crafting a menu not only causes trouble for those handling the demonic beast meat, but it's also futile. Therefore, it's indeed not necessary."

"Huh?"

A hint of surprise flickered on Lu Xuan's face.

"Do all the Flood Dragons under the control of you Senior Brothers rush to grab the meat? How come mine are quite well-mannered, queuing up for me to feed them?"

Lu Xuan implied.

"Junior Brother, are you joking? Those Flood Dragons and serpents are just uncivilized creatures. When you toss in the demonic beast meat, they'll all rush in. How could they obediently follow your arrangements?"

Huang Yuan and the others looked astonished.

"Believe it or not, Senior Brother Huang, come by next time I feed them, and you'll see."

"Alright, I'll definitely come and take a look."

"Although I'm not sure what method Junior Brother Lu uses, if it's true as you say, then I'll inform the fellow disciples handling the demonic beast materials to provide the meat according to the menu you provide."

Curious about Lu Xuan's actions, Huang Yuan promised to comply with Lu Xuan's menu when supplying the demonic beast meat.

After resolving the menu issue, Lu Xuan returned to his cave dwelling contentedly.

As he opened the courtyard door, a familiar black shadow swiftly passed by.

Entering the yard, the Cloud-Stepping Lynx lay lazily there, its emerald eyes faintly fixed on Lu Xuan, emitting a somewhat muted roar.

"I'm back."

After staying at Sky Sword Sect for some time, the Cloud-Stepping Lynx had grown even more majestic, with its jet-black fur shining and its pure white paws as silent as clouds.

However, as Lu Xuan often left it alone in the courtyard, it often felt a bit lonely, evident from its inner desolation, hence always waiting for Lu Xuan at the doorstep.

Lu Xuan took out some dried demonic beast meat, tore it into thin strips, and placed it in front of the Cloud-Stepping Lynx.

While the lynx's emerald eyes remained indifferent, inwardly, it was delighted. It leisurely picked up the meat strips and devoured them, slowly and methodically.

Lu Xuan then went to the Spirit Field, where the Grass Puppet continued tirelessly patrolling the field's ridges. The spiritual plants throughout the field were growing splendidly.
