Liu Mengyao had never seen this kind of fruit before and didn't know if it was poisonous.
However, seeing how vibrant and unusual the fruit looked, she frowned and said, "Keke, I remember the teacher saying that plants that look alluring are mostly poisonous, like poppies. Let's be careful."
Liu Mengyao was cautious. After all, they had no idea about Ying Tianqing's background. If the fruit turned out to be poisonous, it would be a disaster.
"Young miss, this fruit is not poisonous. How about this, I'll cut the fruit into three pieces, and we each get a bit."
Lin Feng smiled. He was sensitive to poisonous things and was sure that this Wugen Guo was harmless.
"Okay, okay! I, Keke, will cut it!"
Luo Keke excitedly grabbed a fruit knife and began to cut the fist-sized Wugen Guo.
As a result, as soon as the fruit knife touched the skin of the Wugen Guo, it seemed to be corroded. The blade began to melt.
"Wow, you said it's not poisonous? The fruit knife is corroded. This venom is more terrifying than arsenic!"
"Yao Yao jie, let's not eat it. We'll be toast!"
Luo Keke was deeply startled.
Liu Mengyao also furrowed her brows, recognizing the strong corrosive nature of the Wugen Guo.
"Crazy girl, the Wugen Guo is an extreme yang substance, while the knife you're holding is yin. Yang and yin naturally cannot fuse."
"Are people in your era's brains underdeveloped? Don't you even have this basic common sense?"
Ying Tianqing couldn't stand it anymore. He got up, walked over, and extended a finger, lightly slicing the Wugen Guo. Instantly, the fiery red Wugen Guo was cut into three pieces.
"Hey, Old Ying, who are you calling underdeveloped? I, Keke, am a genius! If you say that again, I'll get angry!"
Although Luo Keke was amazed by Ying Tianqing's miraculous ability, she couldn't swallow the insult he indirectly gave her.
"You crazy girl, your brain isn't very bright, and you have a bad temper. I, this Honored One, decree that you shall not speak for a day!"
Ying Tianqing let out a cold laugh. He pointed a finger, and Luo Keke's mouth was instantly sealed as if glued. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't open her mouth.
"Mmm! Mmm mmm!"
Luo Keke kept her mouth shut, only managing to make muffled sounds in her distress.
This scene immediately terrified Liu Mengyao.
"Lin Feng, why can't Keke really speak? Please tell your friend to stop fooling around. Keke didn't mean it."
Liu Mengyao said worriedly.
"Brother Ying, please, that's just how Keke is. Please let her speak."
Lin Feng knew Ying Tianqing's abilities and persuaded him kindly.
"It's good that this crazy girl is quiet. My ears are much clearer."
Ying Tianqing ignored Lin Feng's plea and sat down on the sofa, continuing to eat his sausage.
Seeing this, Lin Feng couldn't say much more. He picked up a piece of the cut fruit and put it in his mouth.
As the fruit entered his mouth, juice immediately burst forth. The sweet juice flowed down Lin Feng's esophagus, and he felt filled with power, his spirit and energy instantly boosted hundreds of times.
His body felt warm, and endless spiritual energy nourished his internal organs. Lin Feng clearly felt his hearing and vision improve countless times.
He could even hear the sound of mosquitoes flapping their wings.
Most terrifyingly, his cultivation began to soar.
It climbed steadily from the early stage of Foundation Establishment, reaching the late stage of Foundation Establishment in a short time.
His dantian and blood vessels were several times thicker than before, and they could now accommodate much more true qi.
"Brother Ying, is this fruit so potent? I feel like my strength has increased significantly!"
Lin Feng exclaimed in surprise.
Ying Tianqing sneered, looking at him like a country bumpkin. "Lin Feng, isn't this very normal? Your strength is so weak. The Wugen Guo contains immense spiritual energy. As you absorb it, your cultivation naturally increases."
"For someone at my level, eating this kind of fruit has no effect. This is the difference between you and me."
After speaking, Ying Tianqing continued watching television.
Lin Feng understood, realizing the miraculousness and preciousness of the Wugen Guo. Although he felt a touch of greed for the spiritual energy within, he still picked up a piece and offered it to Liu Mengyao. "Young miss, please eat some. This fruit is beneficial for your body and is a rare treasure."
Liu Mengyao saw the surprise on Lin Feng's face and nodded. She picked up the fruit and tasted it.
As the fruit entered her mouth, Liu Mengyao's entire expression revealed surprise.
She clearly felt that after eating the fruit, her body felt incredibly comfortable, a sense of pleasant lightness.
Unlike Lin Feng, Liu Mengyao was now enveloped in a glow that nourished her body.
Her skin became smoother and more delicate, and her internal organs were like newborn ones, cleansed and sublimated.
Liu Mengyao felt light and airy, experiencing an indescribable comfort and exhilaration.
"Keke, this fruit is amazing. You should eat some too."
Liu Mengyao, having personally experienced the benefits of the fruit, eagerly picked up the last piece and handed it to Luo Keke.
Luo Keke also wanted to taste it, but her mouth was sealed by Ying Tianqing's magic. She couldn't open it at all and could only desperately seek help from Lin Feng.
"I'll try to help you."
Lin Feng saw Luo Keke's predicament and took out a silver needle, pricking acupuncture points on her face to stimulate the nerves around her mouth.
Unfortunately, Lin Feng's acupuncture skills had no effect. Luo Keke still couldn't open her mouth.
"Kid, don't waste your effort. You're well aware of the gap between us. Do you think you can interfere with a punishment I've imposed on someone?"
Ying Tianqing said with a condescending sneer, as if looking at an idiot.
"Then it's hopeless. I can't do anything either, Keke, my little ancestor. You should apologize to Old Ying. If he doesn't unseal you, no one can."
Lin Feng said helplessly.
Luo Keke also realized Ying Tianqing's terrifying power and regretted opposing him.
She obediently approached Ying Tianqing and made several muffled sounds.
"Crazy girl, I don't understand what you're saying. Don't waste your breath. After one day, your mouth will naturally recover."
Ying Tianqing impatiently waved his hand, signaling Luo Keke to move away, so as not to disturb his television viewing.
"Senior Ying, Keke is saying she was wrong and won't speak carelessly again."
Liu Mengyao translated.
"Mmm mmm mmm mmm..."
Luo Keke nodded, continuing to make muffled sounds, it was unclear what she was trying to say.
"Keke says if you unseal her, she will make it up to you and take you out to eat delicious food, even better than sausage."
Liu Mengyao continued to translate.
"Young miss, you can understand what Keke is saying?"
Lin Feng looked at Liu Mengyao in surprise.
"Keke and I are too familiar with each other. Even if she became mute, I could still tell what she wants to express from her expressions."
Liu Mengyao explained calmly.
"Alright then, seeing your genuine desire to treat this Honored One to delicacies, I shall spare you this time."
Ying Tianqing was swayed by the temptation of good food. With a wave of his hand, Luo Keke's sealed mouth popped open with a sound.
"Phew, I was suffocating."
"Old Ying, you're too awesome, much more awesome than Little Linzi."
"I, Keke, keep my word. I won't argue with you anymore. I'll take you out to eat, drink, and have fun. You'll be my wingman, and I'll carry you."
Luo Keke said excitedly, and without waiting, she went to the table and put the remaining fruit into her mouth.
She was practically starving for it.
