Journey to the West: Starting by taking Sun Wukong as my disciple!-Chapter 309: I Am the Servant Boy Here

As soon as he took a bite, Roc Demon King noticed the flavor of the mutton slices, but a strong spiciness quickly followed, engulfing his mind and spirit.

The face of Roc Demon King instantly contorted into a mask of pain, grimacing with bared teeth.

Damn, I was careless, who would’ve thought this hotpot meat could be so spicy!

Even sauce-coated duck pales in comparison to this.

After all, the combination of heat and numbing spice is far worse!

"Shopkeeper Chen, give me, give me a cup of fresh-squeezed Flat Peach juice!" Roc Demon King hastily begged for salvation, "Too spicy! I can’t take it!"

Chen Nuo rolled his eyes, "Why don’t you just block your senses, and that’s it?"

Why are you stubbornly pretending to be tough?

Roc Demon King shook his head, "No way, if I block my senses, I won’t be able to taste the flavor of the meat slices!"

He couldn’t bear to do it!

Chen Nuo: "..."

He didn’t understand the world of food lovers.

"Hiss! Shopkeeper Chen, please!" Roc Demon King gasped for air, pleading.

Chen Nuo rose from his seat with a sigh and fetched a cup from the kitchen.

Taking the cup in both hands, Roc Demon King drank it eagerly all in one go. The sweet, chilled juice of the Flat Peach was like nectar to his parched throat, immediately calming the tumultuous heat in his mouth significantly.

It tasted of peaches, very delicious, yet not overly sweet at all.

Refreshing, Roc Demon King breathed a long sigh of relief, utterly content.

Looking at the steaming hotpot, this time Roc Demon King honestly reached for the non-spicy section, knowing he wasn’t great with spicy food and not wanting to torture himself further.

Seeing the beverage in Roc Demon King’s cup, the Great Roc grew curious, pointing with his hand, "What is this?"

"This is a special drink from Chaos Residence, very delicious!" Roc Demon King explained.

The eyes of the Golden Roc lit up immediately. Be it the roast lamb leg or the hotpot, both had exposed him to different yet equally superb tastes.

Of course, this drink would be no exception.

Looking up at Chen Nuo, the Great Roc said somewhat eagerly, "Shopkeeper Chen, get me a cup as well."

Though this spicy pot is especially tasty, it’s still too spicy, and it’d be good to have something to drink to alleviate the heat.

Hearing this, Roc Demon King had a thought, his lips curling into an almost imperceptible wicked smile. He paused before saying, "Golden Roc, the best drink here at Chaos Residence isn’t just this one."

"There’s a drink here that’s several times tastier than this!" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"What is it?" the Great Roc asked, his face showing eagerness.

"Flat Peach juice,"

Roc Demon King stated, each word deliberate.

Flat Peach?

The Great Roc was stunned. Does this name... have anything to do with that Flat Peach?!

Opening his mouth, the Great Roc impulsively said, "This Flat Peach... it..."

"Didn’t think you’d be so clever." Roc Demon King nodded in approval and said, "You’re right. This Flat Peach juice is indeed made by Shopkeeper Chen from the Innate Spiritual Root Flat Peach."

Having said that, he pointed at his own drink, "Including my fresh-squeezed Flat Peach juice, it’s the same."

"!!!" The Great Roc’s eyes widened, somewhat astounded.

Drinking juice made from Innate Spiritual Root Flat Peaches was such an extravagance!

After all, except for those at the Flat Peach Banquet of the Queen Mother, such peaches were incredibly rare and precious!

The ones that were not consumed and somehow made it to the Lower Realm were treasures that everyone coveted!

But then the Great Roc thought it through and was reassured; Shopkeeper Chen was powerful enough to use high-level magical treasures as mere decorations, so it was only natural for him to have a stock of Flat Peaches.

"Then, Shopkeeper Chen, could you get me a cup of Flat Peach Juice?" Great Roc pleaded.

Chen Nuo nodded, took two cups of Flat Peach Juice, as he felt like drinking some himself.

With a bottle of Innate Yin-Yang Qi, Great Roc wasn’t worried about not being able to pay the bill.

He placed one of the cups in front of Great Roc.

Great Roc was chewing on a slice of meat, looking at the cool mist rising from the Flat Peach Juice before him, he reached for it with a hint of joy in his eyes.

So cold, it must be even more effective in relieving the spiciness, he thought, and then he tilted his head back and took a big gulp.

The chilly sensation managed to suppress the heat for a moment, but when the bubbles popped and released a spicy kick, the two sensations combined in a way that could only be experienced firsthand.

Great Roc clenched the cup tightly all of a sudden.

If this hadn’t been a product of Chaos Residence, it probably would have shattered beyond repair by now.

Watching this scene, Roc Demon King couldn’t help but snicker in amusement.

He had been there before, tasting the same unexpectedly harsh bite when eating Sauce-coated Duck.

Great Roc knitted his brows tightly, and after a few moments, the spiciness subsided, leaving behind a sweet and cold taste in his mouth.

"Refreshing!" After belching, he leaned back in his chair, a look of total contentment on his face.

"I can’t believe it, you actually didn’t trick me, this Flat Peach Juice is really good!" Great Roc said, looking at Roc Demon King in surprise.

Roc Demon King offered an embarrassed smile, "Of course! Who would be so idle as to trick you? I’m too busy eating!"

Great Roc didn’t respond, but lowered his head to look at the fizzing Flat Peach Juice in his cup, feeling the soda’s effects spreading through his body.

A moment of realization struck his mind, this was indeed Flat Peach!

He had eaten it before and was all too familiar with its effects, what a luxury!

Great Roc couldn’t help but sigh, and then the Two Demons began to feast to their hearts’ content.

After a satisfying meal and drinks, Roc Demon King rubbed his belly, full of contentment, thinking this was the life a Demon King should live.

The chefs at Demon Master Palace couldn’t compare to Shopkeeper Chen, no, they couldn’t even hold a candle to Mr. Monkey.

Having spent these days in Demon Master Palace had made him crave for better food.

Compared to Roc Demon King’s laziness, Great Roc was energetic and combative, his eyes igniting with a battle spirit as he looked at Roc Demon King.

"Come on, we’ve had our fill, let’s have another match!" Great Roc challenged.

Upon hearing this, Roc Demon King didn’t even budge, he rolled his eyes and said, "I’m not competing."

"Are you scared?" Great Roc’s mouth curled upwards in a confident smile. In his eyes, it was obvious!

After all, his Awakening Divine Skills were so powerful!

Roc Demon King looked disdainfully at Great Roc, who he thought was sure of his victory, and said lazily, "I’ve got to work in a bit, who has time to compete with you?"

Chen Nuo nodded approvingly, thinking that Roc Demon King was quite responsible. He deserved praise!

He showed great potential to become the Employee of the Month at Chaos Residence!

"Work?" Great Roc murmured, somewhat puzzled.

"What work?"

Roc Demon King held his head high with pride, "I am a servant at Chaos Residence! After eating, I have to get to work, I don’t have the luxury of dealing with you."

Earlier, he was too embarrassed to admit it, but seeing how respectfully and gratefully Great Roc regarded the shopkeeper, he realized it was honorable!

To be a servant for such an unfathomable and powerful figure as Shopkeeper Chen was something to be proud of, wasn’t it?

A servant?! Great Roc was dumbfounded. The Roc Demon King, the Young Master of the Demon Master Palace, was actually working as a servant in a restaurant!

If this were known throughout the Three Realms, who would believe it? If the Demon Master Palace found out, they might come over to start a fight.

Great Roc’s gaze involuntarily shifted to Chen Nuo, and then the confusion in his heart dissipated once again.
