Fantasy: Empress Wife, Cute Kids Cause Havoc in Jiuzhou

Chapter 94 Consuming an Ancient Treasure, Even the Artifact Spirit of the Divine Sword Pavilion is Alarmed

"Sis, I found five ancient treasures."

After a long time, Chu Chen met up with his sister Chu Xin and proudly took out the ancient treasures he had found, floating them between them.

"Hehe, I found one more than you."

With a wave of her tiny, snow-white hand, Chu Xin tossed out six treasures. Each of these treasures was adorned with golden runes and was wrapped in an ancient aura.

All these treasures were swords, some three feet long, some one foot short, and some even unformed sword embryos.

"Sis, you're really amazing."

Chu Chen looked up in admiration, not skimping on his brown-nosing.

Chu Xin nodded her head as if it were a matter of course, saying, "Of course, I am your elder sister after all."

"Mhm!"

Chu Chen nodded repeatedly. A nearby two-headed piglet couldn't help but cover its ears with its front hooves, bow its head, and neither look nor listen.

Sadly, it had two heads and four ears, so two front hooves were not enough to cover all four ears, which troubled it greatly.

As Chu Chen looked at the myriad of treasures floating between them, he cocked his head and asked, "Sis, if those three golden characters could be eaten, can these ancient treasures be eaten directly too?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Xin's eyes lit up, and she clapped her hands, saying, "Smart brother, let me try first."

Saying so, she picked up an ancient treasure, opened her little mouth, and prepared to eat it.

"Sis, hold on a moment."

Chu Chen quickly called to Chu Xin, and under her puzzled gaze, he took out a small jade bottle. With his chubby little hands forming a hand seal, he dumped out a stream of "dishwater."

Chu Chen took the ancient treasure from Chu Xin's hand and washed it in the "dishwater," saying, "Dad says we must wash everything before eating it, or we'll get sick."

Chu Xin had a sudden realization and said with a giggling smile, "I forgot about that."

"There you go, sis, eat up."

Chu Chen quickly finished washing the ancient treasure and handed it to Chu Xin, his face full of anticipation as he urged her, "Hurry and taste it, see what it's like."

"Mm!"

Chu Xin took the cleaned ancient treasure, opened her little mouth, bit off the tip of the sword, and started munching away.

The two-headed piglet beside her stared with wide eyes in shock.

Is this little demon really eating it?

These were ancient treasures; not to mention cultivators, even demon beasts would treasure them dearly if they found them. Yet, this little demon was eating them directly.

Most importantly, the materials of these ancient treasures were mostly very hard. Moreover, the Array Base of the Divine Sword Pavilion's Guardian Formation contained supreme Sword Intent, but this little demon managed to bite it apart effortlessly, which was beyond belief.

But thinking about it, this little demon had eaten even the Rune Characters from the Divine Sword Pavilion's signboard. Eating an ancient treasure now didn't seem so unacceptable.

Gulp!

After she chewed it up and swallowed, she smacked her lips twice to savor it, then muttered, "Doesn't taste like much; not as good as a big pig's pig's head."

Upon hearing this, the two-headed piglet pulled its heads back simultaneously, and its four short hooves involuntarily stepped back a few steps.

"But!"

Chu Xin's tone shifted and she said with a giggle, "The energy contained is much more than in a big pig's pig's head, and it also contains Sword Intent."

"Then sis, eat more of them."

Chu Chen hurriedly urged her, "That way, sis will become even more formidable."

"Mm!"

Chu Xin took a couple more bites, chewing while she said, "Brother, you eat too. Although these ancient treasures contain Sword Intent, which won't enhance your Sword Intent, you can still transform them into pure energy to absorb."

"Alright!"

Chu Chen nodded, picked up an ancient treasure, washed it, and started eating it as well.

"Little pig, aren't you eating?"

While eating, he also washed another ancient treasure and offered it to the two-headed piglet.

The two-headed piglet instinctively shook its head.

"Just kidding, do you think everyone is like you two little demons, bizarrely abnormal with your teeth, stomach, and everything else?"

If this thing were placed in the mouth of other cultivators or a Demon Beast, it would instantly be torn apart by the Sword Intent and Sword Qi bursting out of it."

"Not eating? That's too bad."

Chu Chen withdrew the treasure, mumbling to himself.

Ow!

The two-headed piglet trotted over, looking up at the Ancient Treasure in Chu Chen's hand with a longing expression.

"Want to eat?"

Chu Chen's eyes lit up, thinking he had found a like-minded pig.

The two-headed piglet shook its head, then nodded.

"So, is that a yes or a no?"

Chu Chen became confused. "Never mind, I'll give it to you."

The plump little hand loosened, and the Ancient Treasure fell, caught by the two-headed piglet in one bite.

Naturally, it wasn't trying to eat the Ancient Treasure but was thinking about taking the chance to cultivate it since it had come across one so rarely.

Although this Ancient Treasure was a sword type, not a Fire Element, which would suit it best, it was still an Ancient Treasure.

It placed the Ancient Treasure in front of itself and forced out a drop of Essence Blood to spray onto it.

This action stunned both Chu Xin and Chu Chen.

"Sister, why is it spitting blood on it?" Chu Chen asked with a puzzled face.

"I don't know, maybe it likes to spit blood on its food before eating. Eew! That's disgusting."

After saying this, Chu Xin looked at the two-headed piglet with disgust and stepped back a few steps to distance herself.

Chu Chen watched the two-headed piglet dumbfoundedly and muttered, "Is this what dad meant by 'acquired taste'?"

Listening to the siblings' conversation, the two-headed piglet felt a rush of blood coursing through its body, almost disturbing its mind and interrupting its cultivation.

These two little demons, always talking about eating, that's outrageous.

I'm cultivating a Magic Treasure here, even if you don't know how, surely you've seen your father cultivate one, to somehow relate this to eating?

Actually, the two-headed piglet was indeed misunderstanding the two little toddlers, who had never seen their father perform a Blood Sacrifice on a Magic Treasure; they had always directly cultivated their Emperor Weapons and other treasures through their spirits, not through Essence Blood.

Zheng!

While Chu Xin and Chu Chen were joyfully munching away, an elderly man with white hair appeared out of nowhere in front of them.

"Eh? Grandpa, where did you come from?"

Chu Xin stopped chewing and asked, surprised.

"I came from down below."

The old man pointed to the ground below, smiling kindly.

"Oh!"

Chu Xin nodded her head and resumed her enthusiastic eating.

The old man watched the mischievous kids munching on the Array Base, his eyelids twitching.

"Grandpa, won't you eat?"

Chu Chen generously handed an Ancient Treasure that he had washed to the old man.

"Water of Purification?"

The corner of the old man's mouth twitched—these two mischievous kids were actually using Water of Purification to wash the Array Base.

"Not eating?"

Chu Chen tilted his head and thought for a moment. After seeing the two-headed piglet spit another mouthful of Essence Blood onto the Ancient Treasure, he had an epiphany: "Grandpa, do you also need to spit some blood on it before you eat?"

The old man looked at the two-headed piglet, somewhat speechless, then shook his head and said, "I am an Artifact Spirit of the Divine Sword Pavilion, could you little friends please return these Array Bases to me?"
