The sumptuous dinner prepared by Emperor Beichen was as nutritious as the one he had prepared for Baili Hongzhuang back in the Blood Abyss.
"Now that you have to run between two places and have a busy cultivation schedule, it's important to replenish your body," Emperor Beichen said as he served a bowl of monster bone soup to enhance Baili Hongzhuang's physical strength.
Baili Hongzhuang accepted it with a smile. "This reminds me of the time in the Blood Abyss. It feels like more than two years have passed in the blink of an eye."
Emperor Beichen chuckled. "You're a busy person, and time naturally flies. But to me, not seeing my wife for even a day feels like a long separation, so these past two years have felt particularly long."
Hearing his words, Baili Hongzhuang was slightly taken aback. She gazed at Emperor Beichen's face, which seemed both serious and playful, and a complex expression flickered in her eyes.
Indeed, during the time she had been with Emperor Beichen, she had been busy with various tasks, while he had set aside many things to accompany her.
After hearing Emperor Beichen's ambiguous yet straightforward words, the three beasts couldn't help but squint their eyes.
"Tsk tsk, not suitable for children."
"Tsk tsk, not suitable for monsters."
"Tsk tsk, definitely not suitable."
Helplessly shaking their heads, the three beasts knew all too well that they were like third wheels in this situation.
Emperor Beichen casually glanced at the three beasts, his eyes seeming indifferent as they swept over them. "I can see that you've already eaten your fill, right?"
At his words, the expressions of the three beasts immediately changed, and they quickly put on smiles.
"No, not at all!"
"We didn't say anything!"
"Eating, eating!"
The three beasts simultaneously lowered their heads, pretending as if nothing had happened, and continued with their dinner.
What a joke! They hadn't finished eating yet, so how could they leave just like that? They were counting on Emperor Beichen for their meals now, and they absolutely couldn't rely on him, or they would have no more delicious food in the future!
Seeing the obedient appearance of the three beasts, Emperor Beichen nodded in satisfaction.
"That's a good boy."
Watching Emperor Beichen's triumphant expression, Baili Hongzhuang couldn't help but inwardly remark on his deviousness.
Emperor Beichen had clearly grasped the three beasts' weakness completely, and now they could only obediently submit to him.
Why hadn't she noticed Emperor Beichen's cunningness before?
Baili Hongzhuang pondered, but now that she was already on the thief ship, she could only continue in this manner.
"Beichen, recently, as I've been practicing in the Desert World for a long time, I've noticed that my energy and elemental power recover much faster after coming out. It's much better compared to being completely exhausted when I first came out," Baili Hongzhuang said slowly.
Emperor Beichen nodded. "Your body's adaptability is constantly increasing, so the recovery speed is also accelerating."
"Previously, I heard the Sect Master mention that when a cultivator remains in a training environment for a long time, their physical fitness continuously improves. The first time you recover, it's slow, but the hundredth time is much faster than the first. The body's adaptability keeps increasing, and as a result, our recovery speed will be much faster than that of ordinary cultivators," Emperor Beichen explained.
