Chapter 124 The Banquet
Five hours later, Qiu Hougong, after a quick warm-up, led Gu Xun'er, whose face was flushed, into the bathroom for a bath.
"Brother... Husband, I feel like I'm very different now than before..."
Reaching out to splash the water around her, Gu Xun'er summoned her strange fire—the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame—and looked at Qiu Hougong, who was also soaking in the water, and said, "Although I was a nine-star Dou Sheng before, if I were to fight now, I would be 100% sure of killing him and 80% sure of capturing him alive."
"Yes, Madam, your feelings are perfectly normal..."
Qiu Hougong smiled and nodded, then continued, "Before, Madam, your bloodline power hadn't been activated, and your control over the strange fire was still lacking. But now, you've not only fully activated your bloodline and completely controlled the strange fire, but you've also absorbed so much. So it's normal that your combat power has increased a lot."
"Yes, my husband is right..."
After hearing Qiu Hougong's words, Gu Xun'er's face, which had already returned to normal, blushed again. "Let's not talk about that for now. Husband, when our travels begin, can we go to the ancient clan first?"
“Alright, Madam, you’ve changed so much. If Father knew, he would be very happy.”
As Qiu Hougong spoke, he reached out and pulled Gu Xun'er into his arms again.
"Yes, with such a good son-in-law as you, Father will definitely be very happy."
Gu Xun'er spoke to Qiu Hougong in an incredibly gentle voice, and then the two of them...
Half an hour later, Qiu Hougong brought Gu Xun'er to the kitchen.
"My husband, you've come..."
Walking slowly to Qiu Hougong and Gu Xun'er, Gu Yuexi, who was completely unprotected, said softly, "All the ingredients we prepared have been processed. Now all that's missing is you, my husband, to cook."
"Okay, everyone has worked hard. Now I'll take over."
Qiu Hougong smiled and nodded to Gu Yuexi, then lifted his leg and walked towards the huge table in front of him.
Approaching the table, Qiu Hougong first touched the dough in front of him, then nodded and commented, "Smooth surface, soft texture. And it smells wonderful. Who made this?"
"It's me, Dad, it's me..."
Meng Hongchen's daughter, Qiu Mengchen, straightened up in Qiu Hougong's direction, then winked playfully at him, "They were all made by others, and they didn't ask Mom or my sisters for help."
"Good, good, good, Chen'er, you're amazing..."
Qiu Hougong smiled and gave Qiu Mengchen a thumbs up, then turned his attention to the ingredients next to him.
"Solid and strong, firm and springy. This is truly a pile of good thigh meat..."
Qiu Hougong nodded with great satisfaction, then took out a white jade brush about 25 centimeters long. "Xiao Wu, Meng Wu, help me lift this up. I'm going to brush some seasoning on them."
"Okay, honey."
"Okay, Dad."
Xiao Wu and her mother both agreed and then did as Qiu Hougong instructed.
"Husband, what kind of seasoning is this? It smells so good."
Watching Qiu Hougong's actions, Zhu Zhuqing, holding the wine pot with both hands, brought it to Qiu Hougong's lips for him to drink, while asking with some curiosity.
"Well, good wine..."
After taking a couple of big gulps, Qiu Hougong laughed loudly, then said to Zhu Zhuqing and Qiu Mengqing, who had also come to his side, "This is a special seasoning that I made in my spare time. It's just right for these top-quality ingredients."
