Chapter 9: Real Longevity Noodles
Mo Yinxing saw her stunned and thought she was moved. When he forced the sword spike in her hand into Ning Xiang's hand, Wang Po said: "Don't mention it, although this sword spike is a gift,
But the craftsmanship is pretty good and I’ll give you an advantage!”
Ning Xiang couldn't be sure whether this ugly thing was the same one as the ones she had seen in her memory, so she calmly took it and said something meaningful: "Then your vision is quite unique."
"Humph, then you don't even look at who I am~"
Seeing the person in front of her opening her peach blossom folding fan and starting to fart, without reading the implication of her words at all, Ning Xiang fell silent and said no more.
It wasn't until she followed Mo Yinxing back to the Peach Blossom Dormitory, which was incompatible with the normal painting style of the demon world, that she asked in a low voice: "Have you known that Yan Xiyue for a long time?"
Her understanding of him, whether in the past life or in this life, only limited to a superficial understanding of his appearance, clothing, and strength. As for what friends he had and whether he had anyone he liked, she had no idea at all.
Thinking about whether he has someone he likes, the feeling of boredom in Ning Xiang's heart that never dissipates becomes stronger, and her strange eyes are a little dim, like a little pet that has become miserable without the care of its owner.
Mo Yinxing released the kitchen utensils and other things he bought in the magic market with a flick of his sleeves. When he rolled up his sleeves and washed the vegetables for longevity noodles, he glanced at Ning Xiang: "It's not bad. If you think about it carefully, this is the first time that I have officially interacted with you."
We met her in the Forest of Beasts, about two years ago, when I was eighteen years old."
"Eighteen years old..." She and Mo Yinxing met three years ago. Considering this, she has known him for longer.
Realizing this, Ning Xiang felt less depressed and even took some dishes to help clean them.
"Hey, what are you doing Ning Tianjiao!" Mo Yinxing stopped her and frowned, "Didn't I say that I made this noodle to you to repay your favor? What does it matter if you interfere?"
After stopping Ning Xiang and asking her to find a place to stay, Mo Yinxing continued the previous topic with her: "But why are you suddenly asking about this? Do you think she is very strong and want to fight her?
Bar?"
Ning Xiang shook her head and looked at the delicate white wrists exposed after he rolled up his cuffs. Her eyes followed his big and well-joined hands as they were dipped into the water to wash the vegetables. She replied: "It was just a random question on a whim. If she is really as strong as you."
Qiang, you won’t be the master of the demon world.”
Mo Yinxing thought deeply: "That's for sure. If I'm not strong, how can I be your opponent?"
When he said this, a dark color floated in the young man's peach blossom eyes, which seemed to be a pun, but Ning Xiang did not notice it.
Making longevity noodles does not require much effort, but in less than half an hour, two bowls of steaming longevity noodles sprinkled with green onions are ready.
There was a fried egg on top, and two pieces of juicy green vegetables were placed on the side. Under the golden and attractive color of the soup, there was a ball of hair-thin white noodles soaked in it. Mo Yinxing did not eat it first, but stared at Ning nervously.
Xiang, seems to be very concerned about her feedback.
Ning Xiang has been in a daze since the longevity noodles came out of the pot. When she looked at it, she gave Mo Yinxing the illusion that this was not longevity noodles and that he had made a mistake.
Seeing that she didn't move her chopsticks, he urged her: "Eat, if you don't eat it, it won't taste good when it gets cold!"
Ning Xiang opened her mouth, and it was obvious that she wanted to say something, but in the end she swallowed it. She picked up the chopsticks and carefully picked up a chopstick of white noodles with vegetables.
The taste of the noodles was different from the salty bowl of white noodles she had eaten every time in previous years. It was not only chewy and smooth, but also had a mellow aroma after being soaked in chopped green onions and eggs.
It turns out...the real longevity noodles look and taste like this.
Mo Yinxing looked at the girl in front of him who suddenly stopped while eating. He was stunned for a moment and said at a loss: "What's wrong? Is it too unpalatable?"
He picked up his chopsticks and took a bite from his bowl. It tasted very good, almost the same as what his mother had made for him in his previous life.
Ning Xiang took this opportunity to avoid Mo Yinxing's gaze and quietly wiped the moist corners of her eyes. When he raised his eyes to look at her again, she had returned to normal.
The girl raised her eyes and showed a sincere smile: "No, it's so delicious. I even doubt whether you made it."
Mo Yinxing breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and while he and Ning Xiang continued to cook, he talked about the news he got from his subordinates on the way to buy ingredients:
"The person who gave me the nightmare poison has investigated some information. It is in the area of Wenxin Spring in the Demon Realm. However, Wenxin Spring is only open from morning to noon every day. It is already the end of noon. If we think about it again, we may not be able to make it in time.
We have to go there tomorrow."
Ning Xiang nodded: "It doesn't matter, anyway, it will take a few days for the soul-burning poison in me to be completely resolved, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
This was decided. At the end of a lunch that meant a lot to Ning Xiang, she looked at Mo Yinxing solemnly and said "Thank you."
"Thank you for what? I'm not specifically celebrating your birthday. Besides, you, Ning Tianjiao, don't have many people celebrating your birthday? With your name as the sweet daughter of heaven, you should have a lot of fans in Shaoyang Peak, right?"
Ning Xiang's eyes dimmed a bit, she changed the subject, and asked him, would he fall asleep in the dormitory tonight?
"Of course, if you are here, wouldn't it be terrible if other demons find out if I don't watch you?"
After receiving his affirmative answer, Ning Xiang didn't say anything more. She went into the inner hall and drank a pack of medicine prescribed by Wantai, then nursed back the injuries in her body that she had brought back from the Ten Kill Realm.
Mo Yinxing also had official business to deal with. In order to be able to pay attention to what was happening on her side at all times, he specially moved the wooden table used for handling official business. One of them was in the south and the other in the north. They did not speak to each other, and the atmosphere was very quiet and harmonious.
He secretly glanced at the girl who was standing as tall as a cedar in a meditating posture. His heart couldn't help but beat violently, as if someone had poured honey on it. Just looking at her made him feel sweet.
Ning Xiang and Mo Yinxing had similar cultivation levels, so they naturally noticed his gaze. As he continued to recover from his injuries, he thought about why she was the key to helping him temporarily suppress the nightmare poison. It was just because she was equal in strength to him and was a rare person.
His opponent regards her as the person he cares about the most?
She couldn't figure out the reason, and night fell quietly.
In the middle of the night, Ning Xiang got up out of habit and subconsciously wanted to reach out to the bed to get something. However, as soon as she reached halfway, she vaguely realized that she was not in the cave she was familiar with, so she wanted to take her hand back.
She never thought that when she glanced sideways, she would see a striking blue color break into her sight.
