: Throwing a bone to the dog terrified the Gun Immortal!

"Brother-in-law?"

Upon hearing Sikong Changfeng's extremely catchy and shameless address, before Su Changqing could say anything, Li Hanyi immediately bristled.

"Sikong Changfeng! What are you yelling about! Who's your brother-in-law?!"

Li Hanyi grabbed an empty plate from the table as if to smash it, her blush still lingering, now replaced by a mixture of embarrassment and anger.

"Hey! Junior sister, don't do it! It's our own plate, it's such a waste to break it!"

Sikong Changfeng dodged away with a grin, but his gaze remained fixed on the pot containing the leftovers.

"Um... Hanyi, Senior Brother is doing this for the good of Snow Moon City. Look at Brother Su's cooking skills, they're simply divine! Just smelling them made me feel like my bottleneck was loosening. If I could have a bite, who knows, I might be able to break through to the Divine Ascension Realm?"

To make a stutter, this guy even resorted to the righteous excuse of "for Snowmoon City".

Su Changqing stared speechlessly at the only gun immortal in Beili.

Where did the shrewd, calculating, and strategic Third City Lord from the original story go?

How did you end up like this?

"That's all."

Su Changqing pointed to the bottom of the pot, which was even cleaner than his face.

"Nuonuo ate the last grain of rice. If you had come half an hour earlier, you might have been able to leave some dishwater for us."

"Huh? Really gone?"

Sikong Changfeng looked utterly despairing, as if he had lost millions of taels of silver.

Undeterred, he scanned the table once more, finally fixing his gaze on Su Changqing's hand—where a large bone, which had been used to make soup, remained.

Although the flesh has been completely removed from these bones, they are still the bones of a demon beast!

It was even stewed in the Phoenix Fire! It must be full of essence!

"Um... bones will do too!"

Sikong Changfeng's eyes lit up. "I'm not picky! These bones will make an absolutely delicious soup!"

As he spoke, he actually reached out to take the bone.

"That won't do."

With lightning speed, Su Changqing grabbed the bone in his hand, saying, "This belongs to someone else."

"Takes someone? Who is it?"

Sikong Changfeng was taken aback. "Wasn't Nuonuo asleep? And Junior Sister Hanyi doesn't eat bones either."

"Who said it was for people?"

Su Changqing gave him a half-smile, then walked to the door and whistled at the mangy dog ​​that was lying there drooling.

"Big Yellow! Time to eat!"

This big yellow dog was a stray dog ​​that had come from who-knows-where. Su Changqing felt sorry for it and often fed it leftovers.

Over the past three years, this dog has eaten a lot of Su Changqing's "scraps" containing spiritual energy, and it is no longer an ordinary mongrel.

Upon hearing Su Changqing's call, the previously half-dead Da Huang instantly perked up and sprang to its feet with a "woof"!

Su Changqing tossed it casually.

The beast bone, imbued with a trace of the sword god's intent, traced a graceful arc in the air and flew towards the door.

"No! That's such a waste!"

Sikong Changfeng let out a heart-wrenching scream, and subconsciously tried to use his lightness skill to snatch the bone from the dog!

however.

Just as the bone was about to hit the ground.

"roar--!!!"

The big yellow dog, which usually seemed timid and submissive, suddenly let out a growl that was not at all typical of a dog!

This roar was like a dragon's cry, like a tiger's howl!

Immediately afterwards, a terrifying, suffocating dark red demonic aura erupted from Big Yellow's body!

Although its size did not increase, its aura at that moment subtly overwhelmed Sikong Changfeng, who was a spear immortal!

It opened its mouth wide and bit down on the bone.

"Snap!"

The incredibly hard bones of the demon beast crumbled like tofu under its teeth.

At the same time, a powerful sound wave, mixed with demonic energy, swept out in all directions.

"Holy crap?!"

Just as Sikong Changfeng was about to rush over, he was hit head-on by this sudden wave of sound!

He felt a tightness in his chest, as if he had been hit by a charging rhinoceros, and he uncontrollably stumbled back three steps, crashing into the door frame with a thud.

"This...this is a dog?!"

Sikong Changfeng leaned against the door frame, looking at the big yellow dog lying on the ground, happily gnawing on a bone, with a look of horror on his face.

The oppressive aura he felt just now actually made even a half-step Divine Realm expert feel a slight tremor in his heart!

What the hell is that a dog?

Is this some kind of ancient, monstrous creature disguised as a dog?!

"Brother Su... Brother Su..."

Sikong Changfeng swallowed hard, his finger trembling as he pointed at Dahuang. "What level is your dog at?"

"I don't know."

Su Changqing shrugged, looking indifferent. "Probably just a carefree Heaven Realm cultivator? Usually, he just helps me guard the door and catch mice or something."

"Free and Unfettered... Heavenly Realm? Gatekeeper?"

Sikong Changfeng felt that his worldview had shattered into pieces, and he couldn't pick it up anymore.

A mighty demon from the carefree heavenly realm is actually working as a watchdog here?

Even more outrageous is that he, a dignified master of spear fighting, was almost suppressed by a dog just now?!

If word gets out, will he still be able to make a living in the underworld?

From now on, when people meet, they won't greet each other with "Have you eaten?" but with "I heard you can't even beat a dog?"

"I don't want to live anymore..."

Sikong Changfeng was deeply devastated. He squatted by the door, drawing circles in his mind, muttering, "Humans are worse than dogs... really worse than dogs..."

Even the usually arrogant Li Hanyi was shocked at this moment.

Although she knew Su Changqing was unfathomable, she never expected that even the dog she kept at home would be so perverted.

"Looks like you haven't been idle these past three years."

Li Hanyi looked at Su Changqing with a half-smile.

"Even a dog is trained this well; should I be careful not to get bitten?"

"No way!"

Su Changqing immediately pledged his loyalty, "You're the mistress of the house. If it dares to disrespect you, we'll have dog meat hotpot tonight!"

Big Yellow, who was gnawing on a bone, trembled, tucked its tail between its legs, whimpered, and gave Li Hanyi a pleading look, clearly understanding human speech.

"Alright, stop fooling around."

Su Changqing turned around and gave Sikong Changfeng, who was still squatting at the door questioning his existence, the order to leave.

"Want to eat? You'll have to wait in line next time. But not today, it's just for my wife and kids. Goodbye, and remember to fix that broken city gate."

Sikong Changfeng wanted to cry but had no tears.

Not only did they not get to eat, but they were also looked down upon by the dog, and in the end, they had to pay money to repair the door.

What kind of nonsense is this?!

"Brother-in-law! I'm coming to queue up first thing tomorrow morning! Please give me a number!"

Sikong Changfeng shouted one last time, then slunk away using his light-footed skills.

If we don't run now, what if that dog finishes the bone but isn't full, and then uses it as a snack?

……

With the light bulb gone, the tavern finally became completely quiet.

Night was falling.

The wind and snow outside the window gradually stopped, leaving only a bright moon hanging high in the night sky, casting its clear light on the ground.

Su Changqing carried the sleeping Xiao Nuomi up to the bedroom on the second floor, carefully placed her on the bed, and covered her with a blanket.

The little one was sleeping soundly, a sweet smile on his lips, as if he were having a wonderful dream.

Su Changqing sat by the bed and quietly watched his daughter's sleeping face for a while, his heart filled with tenderness.

"Go to sleep, Daddy will always be watching over you."

He gently kissed his daughter on the forehead, then stood up to go see Li Hanyi.

Although the tavern has two floors, Su Changqing lives there alone, so there is only one proper bedroom.

At this moment, Li Hanyi had finished washing up.

She changed out of her menacing gray robe and armor, and put on Su Changqing's white undergarment.

The oversized men's long gown looked somewhat loose on her, but it only accentuated her slender and graceful figure.

Her long, flowing black hair was casually draped over her shoulders, with glistening water droplets clinging to the still-damp ends.

That usually icy pretty face now had an alluring pink hue from the steam of her recent shower.

She stood at the bedroom door, clutching a pillow tightly in her hands, her eyes darting around, completely avoiding looking at Su Changqing.

"that……"

Su Changqing walked over, just about to speak to break the silence.

Li Hanyi shrank back like a startled deer.

She bit her lip, glanced at her sleeping daughter on the bed, and then at the not-so-spacious bedroom.

There really is only one bed here.

Although the bed is big enough to sleep three people, but...

That's way too fast!

Although it happened three years ago, and we were already pregnant, it was an accident back then...

Now that I'm fully conscious, do I really want to... share a bed with you?

Li Hanyi's heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of her throat.

"There's only one bed...how are we supposed to sleep?"
