Chapter 1350 – Mushroom
Lord Little Yan wore a face of disdain. This was not stylish at all, there was not an ounce of cla.s.s.
She, a dignified phoenix, has fallen to the point of catching insects with a bunch of kids who cannot even speak.
This sort of dark history was something she did not want, there was no need to even think about it.
She had wanted to reject partic.i.p.ation. The Carrot Demon convinced her of the opportunity of a picnic and to view it as a chance to relax.
Over the past few months, Lord Little Yan had only been taking lessons or flying amongst the trees, she had indeed not played all this time.
Moreover, Carrot Demon also expressed that he would accompany Lord Little Yan and bring along many spices. When the time comes, they can have an outdoor feast or something.
The moment Lord Little Yan imagined the various new dishes, she could not stop salivating and had readily agreed.
The Hunting Compet.i.tion only accepts young birds as partic.i.p.ants. The area was limited to be within a relatively secluded mountain valley.
Any potentially harmful plants and animals to the young birds have been cleaned up by adults for a long time.
Moreover, adult bird demons would be observing from the skies. They would immediately rescue any young birds that called out for help.
There was no fear of problems with safety.
In addition, many young birds’ parents have also been invited to signify a casual and entertainment aspect of the compet.i.tion.
That was why countless family units were seen attending the compet.i.tion.
The place was boisterous. Before Eagle Demon King could announce the compet.i.tion’s start, many impatient young birds had already dived into the valley.
Everyone scattered upon the announcement to enter the canyon. Teams of threes and fives were formed, and everyone looked thrilled.
Lord Little Yan and Carrot Demon had fallen behind but did not try to compete with the rest. They slowly traveled without any feeling of urgency on their end to catch the insects.
On the contrary, they have discovered many unfamiliar and decent-looking plants that made them excited.
Conversations would occasionally be heard: “Little Qing, look at this. It looks plump and tender, is it edible?”
“No.”
“Little Qing, look at this. It looks beautiful, can we barbeque it?”
“Okay.”
“Little Qing, Little Qing. Come quick, I discovered a large patch of delicious-looking fruits…”
“This is called the Saliva Fruit. It would cause you to salivate continuously when eaten…”
……
Although Lord Little Yan suffered several setbacks along the way, her interest has not diminished and she continued to forage the forest excitedly.
The fruits on trees, the flowers on branches, the plants on the ground were all dug up; all the while she was asking if they were edible.
Carrot Demon followed behind her and only needed to nod or shake his head.
The two demons traveled further as time went by and eventually separated from the leading group. A large shrubbery entered their vision as there were no signs of bird demons having pa.s.sed through this place before.
Lord Little Yan dived into the shrubbery and searched for a long time without regard to her image. That was when she discovered a tiny, una.s.suming green mushroom under the shrubs, hiding amongst the weeds. The mushroom was round and looking silly yet extremely cute.
If not for her excellent eyesight, she might have missed it.
Lord Little Yan’s thoughts were as such. She had never seen this mushroom before, it must be delicious!
She carefully plucked the mushroom with her mouth and presented it to the Carrot Demon as though it was a precious treasure.
“Little Qing, this mushroom looks pretty good. It should taste good after cooking it, right?”
Carrot Demon seems to have discovered something as his eyes shook slightly upon seeing the green mushroom. He extended a carrot whisker and pressed the head of the mushroom for a long time.
