Ye Jiushang was in the room next door and could hear the laughter coming from the other side. Although he was not involved, he could empathize with it. He was happy. However, he had more important things to do now.

The power of the astral winds was not an ordinary thing. If one could control it, it would be an impressive killing move.

Perhaps no one here knew that the powerful winds outside were astral winds, a powerful force.

While Xue Fanxin and the others were happily cooking delicious food, Ye Jiushang slid the wooden board on the window a little. Then, he reached out and carefully touched the wind that was seeping in, letting it hurt his palm.

In less than fifteen minutes, several bloody marks appeared on his palm. However, he did not care, letting the wind blow at his hand. Even if it was a little painful, he was not anxious. Instead, he got happier and happier.

“So this is the power of the astral winds.”

Through his injured palm, Ye Jiushang sensed that the wind force outside was different from the others. He even captured the profundity contained in the astral winds. He absorbed some of the power of the astral winds and merged it into his body before slowly refining it.

Because of the Draconic Lotus Intoxication, he was unable to circulate his cultivation technique, so he did not dare to absorb too much of the astral wind power. He could only do it little by little.

Looking at his scarred palm, Ye Jiushang smiled indifferently. He did not have the mood to treat his injuries, nor did he have the time. After sealing the window again, he sat cross-legged on the bed and comprehended and digested the astral wind power he had absorbed just now.

Xue Fanxin did not know what Ye Jiushang was doing in the room. Assuming that he was resting, she continued to cook delicious food with everyone happily. She cut all kinds of meat into thin slices and placed them neatly on a plate. She even stir-fried a few dishes, roasted three wild rabbits, and prepared fruits.

Looking at the delicious food on the table, everyone was salivating, especially Gu Jinyuan and Ah Wei. These two had not eaten a full meal for a long time. Seeing so many dishes, all their principles were thrown out the window.

“Xin’er, your culinary skills are really good. However, most of the meat and dishes are raw. How will we eat them?” Gu Jinyuan looked at the meat on the table. Although it was cut into thin pieces, it was still raw.

“This is called a hot pot. Later, whatever you fancy, you put it in the pot and boil it. Then, dip it in the sauce of your choice before eating it. I’m not making you eat raw meat. I only made two kinds of sauce. One is slightly spicy, the other is normal, and…”

While Xue Fanxin was introducing the hotpot, Little Lei suddenly appeared out of nowhere and shielded the three roasted rabbits on the table. “I don’t care about that hotpot of yours. I only want these three rabbits. Besides, they are mine. Don’t even think about snatching them from me.”

“Are you sure you will only eat roasted rabbits?” Xue Fanxin asked with a sinister smile.

Little Lei originally wanted to give an affirmative answer, but when he saw the other dishes on the table and the two fragrant soup pots, he lost his confidence.

He also wanted to try that hotpot. However, he could not bear to part with the three roasted rabbits.

What should he do?

“Alright, everyone sit down and get ready to eat. I’ll call Ah Jiu.” Xue Fanxin could not be bothered to waste her breath on Little Lei. She went to look for Ye Jiushang.

However, when she walked into the room, she saw that Ye Jiushang’s hand was covered in blood. She got panicked and anxious and quickly ran over. “Ah Jiu, what’s wrong?”

Everyone in the next room heard Xue Fanxin’s cry. The shout was clearly filled with panic and anxiety, so they all ran over.
