Chapter 358 — Chapter 358 A Dragons Pride

Once Xi Meili brought them to the dining room, they were greeted by a large table that was filled with food from the center to the edge of the table.

There was so much food on the table that it looked like a feast for 100 people.

Wang Xiuying was left speechless by this. Surely, they didn’t have to cook that much food for just six people, right?

"That’s a lot of food," Yuan said out loud after seeing it.

Xi Meili chuckled and said, "We’re dragons— we eat a lot."

"Come, take a seat." The Dragon Emperor said to them with a bright smile on his face, clearly in a very blissful mood.

A few moments later, once they were all seated, the Dragon Emperor spoke again, "Yuan, I will raise this cup for you, who released all nine pillars of light and made history today, even helping us improve our bloodlines."

"Thank you, Yuan." The Dragon Empress also raised her cup.

"Che. As much as I hate to admit it, you’re pretty good for a human." Xi Murong also raised his cup.

After spending some time alone, Xi Murong realized that Yuan wasn’t like the other humans and that he was qualified to be acknowledged by them.

"If I remember correctly, you promised to address Yuan as ’boss’ if he managed to release more pillars than you, Elder Brother." Xi Meili reminded him as she raised her cup.

"S-Shut up! Why did you have to remind him!" Xi Murong’s face quickly flushed with redness.

"Go ahead. Eat whatever you want and as much as you want!" The Dragon Emperor said to them before digging in.

The Royal Family immediately started grabbing the food and tossed them into their mouths, taking large bites and eating them in a somewhat barbaric manner, completely unbefitting of their status.

Wang Xiuying was left speechless by their eating manner, but when she thought about it, they were not human, and their eating resembled how magical beasts would eat their food.

"Wow, these foods have so much spiritual energy in them! They taste great!" Yuan exclaimed after swallowing a mouthful of food.

"Almost everything on this table was raised by the Royal Family. I’m glad you like it." The Dragon Emperor laughed.

"I can feel my cultivation base soaring just from eating... I have never experienced this before!" Wang Xiuying managed to enter the Spirit Warrior realm after swallowing a few mouthfuls of food.

"Most of them are raised to Spirit Grandmaster before we eat them, so you’re consuming Spirit Grandmaster spiritual meat. You’ll most likely increase a few more levels during this lunch." Xi Meili said to her.

"S-Spirit Grandmaster spiritual meat... I don’t know about the Spirit Heavens, but the Lower Heavens definitely don’t have such luxury..." Wang Xiuying mumbled, and she quickly began stuffing more food inside her mouth, as this was a great opportunity to raise her cultivation easily.

’It was the right choice to follow Yuan! If I continue following him, who knows what might happen. I might even become a top player just by following him!’ Wang Xiuying thought to herself.

’Unfortunately, I am not playing this game to become the best player out there.’

Since her main objective was to find a cure for Yu Tian in this vast cultivation world, she will be focusing on that.

’If I can go to the Spirit Heavens, I will be able to learn even more things! I might even find a cure for Yu Tian!’ Wang Xiuying thought.

Sometime later, once they had consumed over half of the food on the table, the Royal Family began worrying if they would have enough food or not, as they had underestimated Yuan’s eating capabilities.

’Heavens! This human’s appetite is as big as us dragons! And dragons are known for having huge appetites compared to the other races!’ Xi Murong cried inwardly when he realized how much Yuan had eaten.

Meanwhile, Wang Xiuying had stopped eating long ago, and she was on the verge of collapsing from eating too much. However, she’d managed to increase her cultivation base to ninth-level Spirit Warrior from her effort.

"Tell the cooks to bring us more food! And tell them to not stop cooking until I say so!" The Dragon Emperor commanded the servants there, as he wasn’t going to risk running out of food, which would be an embarrassment for their family.

A royal family running out of food during a feast? If word got out, they would become laughing stocks!

"If there’s not enough food, you don’t have to mind me," Yuan said to them with an innocent face.

"Hahaha! Nonsense! Eat as much as you want! In fact, don’t stop eating until you’re full!" The Dragon Emperor said.

Yuan nodded and continued to stuff his face with more food.

When Xi Murong saw this, he quickened his eating pace, not wanting to lose to Yuan for a second time.

’Although you might have beaten me in terms of talent, I will never let you beat me when it comes to eating! My pride as a dragon is on the line here!’ Xi Murong cried inwardly.

A few hours and a couple hundred pounds of food later, Yuan patted his round stomach and finally stopped eating.

"I am full!" He said with a satisfied look on his face, as it has been a long time since he’d been this full.

"Yes! I won!" Xi Murong said with a somewhat sick look on his face.

"Huh?" Yuan looked at Xi Murong who was looking in his direction with a prideful look, unaware of the battle they just had.

"Are you sure you’re really human and don’t actually have a dragon bloodline?" Xi Meili chuckled.

"I’m pretty sure I am human..." Yuan smiled.

"Anyways, it’s getting late, so we’ll have to visit the city tomorrow. I’ll show you the guest rooms now if you’re ready to move." Xi Meili said to them.

"Give me a few minutes..." Yuan said while pointing at his round belly.

"Me too." Wang Xiuying also said.

"Don’t worry. Take all the time you need. I’ll go prepare your rooms now." Xi Meili said to them before leaving the dining room.
