Beast World: The Ferocious God Xiang Liu is So Gentle

As dawn broke, Tianwu returned from outside.

Tianwu: "Xiangliu, come and see what I've hunted!"

Xiang Liu came to the cave after hearing the sound, and Lu Yao followed him out.

Xiang Liu: "It's just a rhinoceros! What's so great about it?"

Tianwu: "Do you know how hard it was for me to carry such a huge thing back!"

Xiang Liu: "Then I can only say you're too weak!"

Lu Yao: "This prey is huge! It has a horn and looks a bit like a rhinoceros."

Tianwu: "Look closely, it's different from a rhinoceros. Its horn curves in the opposite direction, and its fur is very thick, which can keep you warm when the cold season comes."

Xiang Liu: "Stop talking nonsense and get to work with me. Yao Yao has been working hard all night and hasn't eaten anything yet!"

Lu Yao: "Let's make a soup with red dates and animal bones for lunch."

Tianwu: "Bone broth will definitely have no flavor!"

Lu Yao: "Chop the bones into small pieces; the marrow inside is especially nutritious. Simmer them for a longer time, preferably until the soup turns white before drinking it. It's incredibly delicious; you'll know once you try it."

Xiang Liu: "Then I'll start simmering the bone broth first, and then I'll start grilling the meat."

Lu Yao took out the tortoise shell used for boiling salt from her spatial storage.

Lu Yao: "Let's use this. Make a lot. Let Niannian drink more bone broth these next few days; it will help her recover faster."

Now that everyone knew Lu Yao had a spatial ability, she stopped pretending and took out a large bucket of spiritual spring water directly from her space.

Lu Yao: "Boil it with spiritual spring water, everyone should drink some. Everyone worked hard yesterday."

After making these arrangements, Lu Yao returned to bed to observe Niannian's condition.

Niannian's lips were chapped, making her look especially pitiful.

Lu Yao took out some sea grapes from her spatial storage and put them in a bowl.

Lu Yao said to Granny Wu, "These are sea grapes. They are nutritious and can boost immunity. Let Niannian eat more of them."

While feeding Niannian sea grapes, Wu asked Lu Yao, "What is immunity?"

Lu Yao: "Immunity is the body's own ability to fight disease. When immunity is improved, the disease will heal faster."

After tasting a sea grape, Niannian said, "It's delicious, and I'm not thirsty anymore."

The witch knelt down before Lu Yao: "I wish to learn more from the Goddess Goddess in the future. Please, Goddess Goddess, teach me."

Lu Yao quickly helped the old witch up: "Don't kneel down to me so casually, it will embarrass me. Just call me Lu Yao from now on, and please don't call me Goddess anymore."

The witch said, "Then I will call you master! You saved Nian Nian's life, and I have sworn an oath to the Beast God. From now on, you will be my master."

Lu Yao was somewhat embarrassed.

At this moment, Xiang Liu walked in carrying a black tortoise shell: "Let him call you master, you are worthy of it."

Niannian: "You are Grandma's master, and you are also Niannian's master."

After Xiang Liu simmered the bone broth, he instructed Tian Wu on how to grill the meat, and then went out.

Tianwu's meat is almost cooked, but Xiangliu hasn't returned yet.

Tianwu: "Where has Xiangliu gone to slack off? Why hasn't he come back yet?"

At this moment, Xiang Liu carried a large bed back into the cave.

Xiang Liu: "Who's been slacking off? I'm going to make a bed for Yao Yao."

Lu Yao: "Where should we put the new bed?"

Xiang Liu: "I've carved out a stone chamber inside, just big enough to fit this bed. After we finish eating, I'll clean up the rubble in the cave, and then you can go in and rest."

Lu Yao: "You've thought of everything."

The barbecue was especially delicious, but unfortunately I couldn't eat it.

The old witch exclaimed, praising the roasted meat: "This meat is delicious!"

Lu Yao: "That's because the meat is good. And we added sea salt, which can remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor."

After everyone finished eating the barbecue, the bone broth was almost ready.

Lu Yao asked Xiang Liu to serve everyone a large bowl.

Lu Yao: "This soup will be good for Niannian's health after she drinks it. We have been making her bone broth these days, and she will get better soon."

When Granny Wu learned that this soup was specially made for her granddaughter, she was moved to tears.

After finishing their meal, Tianwu helped Xiangliu clean the cave and then put the bed inside.

Tianwu: "This stone chamber is too small."

Xiang Liu: "I will build a bigger one next door, and I will use this one to store medicinal herbs."

Tianwu: "Then you guys should get some rest. I'm leaving now."

After Tianwu left, Xiangliu took out a gray crystal core from his pocket and placed it in Lu Yao's hand.

Xiang Liu: "This is the crystal core of the rhinoceros. Keep it safe."

Lu Yao carefully put away the crystal core: "Let's rest quickly!"

Xiang Liu fell asleep holding Lu Yao.

After feeding Nian Nian bone broth, the old witch outside lay down to rest with her.
