Fantasy: Empress Wife, Cute Kids Cause Havoc in Jiuzhou-Chapter 413 411 Mother, we finally found you
"Master, this is the cell where the female prisoner is detained."
The Dungeon Guard wound his way through the passages, taking quite a while before stopping in front of a cell, he respectfully said.
Chu Xin examined the cell before her closely; though it appeared no different from the other cells, she could sense that the prohibitions on this cell were more numerous and stronger.
Chu Chen, unable to wait any longer, asked, "When will those prisoners return?"
The Dungeon Guard did not respond; he was Chu Xin's puppet, not Chu Chen's.
"Sister, please ask him," urged Chu Chen, turning his head towards Chu Xin.
Chu Xin nodded and said to the Dungeon Guard, "This is my brother. You must answer all his questions truthfully."
"Yes, Master,"
the Dungeon Guard bowed respectfully and then began to speak, "All the prisoners go to the ore veins to mine Spirit Stones at dawn, and they only return after nightfall to rest."
After having their Cultivation bound, Cultivators were no different from ordinary people.
They too needed rest and food.
With only so many prisoners in the dungeon, if they were to be kept mining Spirit Stones for a long time, naturally they could not be worked to death all at once.
"We have to wait until nightfall?"
A frown creased Chu Chen's brows slightly, showing a hint of impatience.
"Let's just wait," said Chu Xin to the Dungeon Guard, "you go back to your post and do what you are supposed to do. When those prisoners return, you are to bring that female prisoner here personally. Understand?"
"I understand, Master."
The Dungeon Guard nodded and turned to leave.
"Little brother, I'm getting hungry, let's roast some meat,"
Chu Xin said, rubbing her small stomach.
"All right," agreed Chu Chen, nodding as he took out a grill and Ninth Rank Illusion Beast meat to start roasting.
Chu Xin pulled out a small chair, sat down and leisurely waited while sipping on Beast Milk.
"Are these two kids really roasting meat in the dungeon?"
The Cultivators in the Divine Coffin from Longzhou, watching through the Divine Coffin's projection, were left somewhat speechless.
This was Longzhou Dungeon after all, and these kids were here to break out prisoners, not for a vacation.
Roasting meat in a dungeon without fear of being discovered, these kids had some nerve.
Perhaps hearing their unspoken thoughts, Chu Xin, who was drinking Beast Milk, suddenly stopped, sniffed with her little nose, and caught the faint aroma of the roasting meat.
She frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then threw a Talisman onto the ground.

Hum!
A layer of prohibition emerged, instantly forming a transparent Barrier that enveloped them.
"This way, the scent won't drift outside,"
Chu Xin said with satisfaction, continuing to drink her Beast Milk.
The Longzhou Cultivators inside the Divine Coffin exchanged glances, all a bit lost for words.
"Isn't this kid too clever for her age? Being able to eavesdrop on thoughts like this is simply outrageous," they thought.
The two-headed pig didn't think much, its elongated pig eyes fixed unblinkingly on the roasting meat, drooling incessantly.
Seeing the pig's behavior, the Longzhou Cultivators looked disdainfully at it.
One of the cultivators even whispered, "Demon Beasts are just Demon Beasts, uncultured, drooling over the sight of roasted meat. Utterly disgraceful."
The two-headed pig, upon hearing this, became so infuriated that it rolled over, flew up to the Cultivator, pointed at his nose, and scolded, "You don't know anything! That's meat roasted by my second brother, second best in the world. You couldn't have it even if you wanted."
"Uh! Yes, yes, you're right, I was wrong,"
the Longzhou Cultivator, who had merely grumbled under his breath, not expecting the two-headed pig to overhear, quickly admitted fault when he saw the pig's outrage.
This is an Eighth Rank Demon Beast, comparable to a Martial Emperor. Let alone the fact that he's trapped now, even if he weren't restrained, he still wouldn't be able to win.
"That's more like it."
Only then did the two-headed piglet nod contentedly, turning its head back toward the roasting meats projected inside the Divine Coffin and murmuring softly, "Has Big Sister forgotten about me? She's actually roasting meats without letting me out."
An hour later, Chu Chen picked up a piece of grilled meat that was even bigger than the others and handed it to Chu Xin, saying with a grin, "Sis, the meat's ready, have a taste."
"Mm!"
Chu Xin took a bite of the grilled meat, and her round, shiny eyes squinted with pleasure.
After two bites, she remembered the two-headed piglet, who, after all, helped with the digging and deserved a reward.
With a wave of her snowy white hand, she let the two-headed piglet out of the Divine Coffin.
"Wow! Big Sister, you finally remembered me."
Having watched the meat with drool practically flowing inside the Divine Coffin, the piglet came out shouting excitedly, "Second Brother, give me a piece. It doesn't have to be fully cooked, half-cooked is fine too."
He spent most of his time in deep sleep, hoping to fully assimilate the Illusion Phoenix Crystal Core as quickly as possible.
Since leaving Cloud State, he hadn't had grilled meat even once.
"No way."
Chu Chen said earnestly, "Daddy said that meat needs to be fully cooked or it will cause diarrhea."
Chu Feng's other words slipped his memory, but when it came to grilling meat, he never forgot a single word.
"I won't get diarrhea."
The two-headed piglet explained. He wasn't a person; he was a Demon Beast. He used to eat raw all the time and never got diarrhea.
"Still no."
Chu Chen shook his head and said seriously, "If you get diarrhea, it will reflect poorly on me and the integrity of my grilling."
"You and the integrity of your grilling?"
The two-headed piglet paused, then mumbled, "I didn't do anything to you or your grilled meat. What does it have to do with your integrity?"
Chu Chen blinked his large eyes and explained, "If you get diarrhea after eating my grilled meat, people might think my grilling is no good, think there's a problem with my grilling skills, get it?"
"Oh, got it."
The two-headed piglet nodded its small head, still not convinced that eating half-cooked grilled meat would cause diarrhea, but didn't argue any further.
After waiting a moment, Chu Chen handed a piece of fully cooked Illusion Beast meat to the two-headed piglet, chuckling, "Now it's good, you can eat."
"Thank you, Second Brother."
The two-headed piglet expressed its thanks and then laid down to tuck in heartily.
Chu Chen also grilled a piece of Illusion Beast meat for himself and started to enjoy it immensely.
The two humans and a pig were so engrossed in the feast that they lost track of time until the Dungeon Guard marked with a Puppet Talisman returned with a female prisoner. Only then did they realize that it was already dark outside.
"Master, the female prisoner has been brought."
The Dungeon Guard brought the female prisoner before Chu Xin and said respectfully.
A look of surprise crossed the woman's face. This Dungeon Guard was treating this small fellow who was only as tall as her waist with such respect?
Who exactly was this little guy?
Could it be that he was the child of Long Yusheng?
But Long Yusheng only had one son, Long Shaotian. She had never heard of such a small child.
Could he be Long Yusheng's illegitimate child?
That was quite possible, otherwise, why would he be wearing a mask, afraid to show his face?
However, why did she feel so familiar and affectionate towards these two little fellows?
"Mm!"
Chu Xin, oblivious to the female prisoner's thoughts, casually waved her hand, signaling the Dungeon Guard to leave.
After the Dungeon Guard vanished from sight, Chu Chen could no longer contain his excitement. He bounced in front of the female prisoner and exclaimed, "Mother, we have finally found you."
