Chapter 2767: Chapter 2767: Could It Be Poisoned?
So many good things here, I bet he won’t end up getting any.
That little ancestor is really domineering; if there’s any fruit, he’s sure to hoard it all for himself. No way he’s sharing with me.
Forget it, forget it, I’m already used to eating stuff from Huayan Peak. These fruits weren’t meant for me anyway, just give them to the little ancestor.
"Little Prince, I’m back."
Holding the basket with one hand, I push open the tent door.
"Why are you only back now, what time is it already?" The little ancestor was getting anxious, almost starving to death.
Everyone says he’s fussy, like a delicate little girl, but what can he do? He’s been pampered since childhood, always having the best of everything.
Suddenly coming to a place like Huayan Peak, even the water here tastes funny; what can he do if he can’t eat?
Being picky was a habit nurtured by the Emperor, so he continues being particular.
"So many fruits, Old Lin, where did you buy them from? Much more than before." Seeing the fruits in Old Lin’s arms, the little ancestor’s eyes lit up.
"From the Battle Cloud Camp." Old Lin responded.
"Battle Cloud Camp?"
The little ancestor paused as he reached for the fruit and looked towards Old Lin.
"Didn’t you say that Gong Cheng is stingy? How come he suddenly became so generous? Isn’t it possible there’s poison in these fruits?"
These people from Battle Cloud Camp want to poison him, don’t they?
Old Lin: "..."
This little ancestor is really imaginative. Do the people at Battle Cloud Camp even know who he is?
Even if they did, we’re from different planes, why would they bother with his antics? Poison indeed!
"Little Prince, you’re overthinking it. These fruits cost me a fortune to buy, please go ahead and try them." He placed the basket down and casually picked up a pear, handing it over.
But the little ancestor felt uneasy, always worried someone wanted to harm him, so he dared not take it.
"This... It’s not like you bought them, if it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have so many fruits. You must try the first bite; after you eat, I’ll eat."
He wore an expression that seemed like Old Lin had achieved great merit, someone who didn’t know better might think he wanted to reward Old Lin.
Only Old Lin knew, this brat was using him to test for poison.
He twitched his lips but didn’t care what the little ancestor thought; he wouldn’t refuse what he was given, better to enjoy what’s offered!
"Then I’ll eat one first, and leave the rest for the Little Prince."
With that, he took a big bite of the pear, so sweet, how did Gong Cheng grow such delicious fruit, a proper gentleman yet capable of growing crops and fruits?
Lucky he picked the biggest one, truly a mouthful of fortune, absolutely delicious.
"Well, is it edible?"
The little ancestor saw him eating and looking satisfied, so he cautiously asked.
"It’s edible, Little Prince, help yourself, it’s really sweet."
Old Lin took another bite, speaking indistinctly to the little ancestor.
The fruit was genuinely sweet, sweet to the point of touching his heart. Gong Cheng... No, the fruit wasn’t from him; it came from the High Priest Demon Heart at Wulong Mountain. Maybe it wasn’t grown by Gong Cheng.
Those two are truly impressive, having whatever they desire, and it’s all exceptionally tasty. Even in their planes, there’s nothing as delicious as these pears.
