CHAPTER 820 ROASTING DARREN TO EAT
A tall and strong man with green hair all over his body appeared in front of Darren.
Adding to the oddity of his appearance were his sharp lips that resembled a bird's mouth.
"Are you a bird man?" Darren blurted when he saw the man.
"Ha-ha." The girl beside him suddenly laughed. But then, she glared at Darren with hatred.
"Brother, this guy has been troubling me. He not only stole my flowers, but he also grabbed my hand,"
the girl said as fury coursed through her.
"You bastard! Now that you have touched my sister, I'm going to rip your hand from your body!"
the man roared. Then he transformed into a green light and rushed toward Darren.
"You are so fast!" Darren exclaimed with shock. Then by instinct, he stretched out his palm.
Bang!
A circle of ripples spread as the two collided. The impact forced Darren to retreat half a step, but the
big man flew backward and his palm was injured.
"What?" When the girl saw that her brother had been pushed back, she was surprised and thought,
'This human brat is so powerful.'
"Brother, let's run. We can't defeat him," the young girl said as she turned to dash down the path
toward the woods.
"Humph, of course, I can defeat him. I'll kill him with my real body!" Although his sister had left, the big
man was determined to stay and fight. He growled, and a pair of green wings grew behind him.
Then his body began to change and expand. In the end, a huge green-black giant bird stood before
Darren.
"Go to hell, boy!"
the giant bird roared.
"Bird with green feathers, you can't defeat me even though you have grown in size," Darren said with a
smile.
"Screw you! You are the bird with green feathers. I am the legendary beast, the Green Phoenix!"
"The Green Phoenix?" Darren paused for a moment. It was not the giant bird's name that stopped
Darren. At this moment, his thoughts were on the fiery red girl from before.
Since this man was the legendary beast, the Green Phoenix, the identity of the woman was obvious.
She was a Fire Phoenix.
According to legends, the Fire Phoenix was a legendary beast at the same level as the Genuine
Dragon—a creature that was nobler than the Kylin Clan.
"Ha-ha, are you afraid now?" the Green Phoenix asked proudly.
"Since you want to use your phoenix body to fight me, then I will also confront you with my dragon
body!
Roar!" This material belongs to .
Darren turned into a dragon. In a flash, his body grew about a hundred times bigger than the Green
Phoenix. In front of Darren, the Green Phoenix was as weak as a newborn chicken.
"Ah." The girl hiding behind a tree was surprised when she saw Darren's transformation. She stared at
him with her mouth wide open.
"It's a dragon! He is the legendary beast, the Genuine Dragon!" The girl glared at Darren with a mix of
awe and envy.
The sudden change in Darren's appearance also astounded the Green Phoenix.
Even Darren's aura was powerful enough to intimidate him completely! Soon, the blood in his body
began to surge.
'Shit! How can I fight him? He is at a higher level than me, ' the Green Phoenix thought as panic
coursed through him.
Unwilling to fight, the Green Phoenix transformed into the bird man's shape.
Darren was speechless at this sudden change. Then, he, too, returned to his human form.
"Ha-ha, we wouldn't have known about each other if we hadn't tried to fight with each other. It turns out
that you are from the dragon race. There is no enmity between us. How about we forget about all this?
I have always been very forgiving." The big man smiled awkwardly as he excused himself from the
fight.
"But, I'm afraid that your sister won't forgive me for touching her hand," Darren said.
"No, no. It is destiny for a phoenix to marry a dragon. You just touched her hand. If you want to marry
her, that is acceptable too," the man stated casually.
"Bah! Why do I have a brother like you? Coward!" The girl flew out from behind the tree where she was
hiding and sneered at the big man.
"Hey, Sister. This dragon must have offended you unintentionally. Don't be so mean," the strong man
tried to persuade his sister.
"Humph!" The girl turned her head and snorted.
Darren smiled and shook his head. Then he said, "Miss, I apologize for offending you just now."
"That's more like it," the girl answered immediately.
"Come on, buddy. Let's have a drink at my place," the man said as he grabbed Darren and flew toward
the path.
"Brother, wait for me," the girl said as she ran after him.
For the next three days, the void outside buzzed.
Darren, on the other hand, stayed with the big man in his cottage. The alcohol the big man offered
Darren was so tasty that he drank it for three whole days!
"Augustine, what kind of alcohol is this? It's so nice!"
Darren loved the mellow and soft taste of the alcohol so much that he felt enchanted.
"Well, it's called caterpillar spirits. Darren, it hasn't been easy for me to collect these spirits. It has taken
me nine thousand years to collect just over ten jars! Between you and me, we've finished one jar. Do
you think I'm generous to you or not?" The Green Phoenix, Augustine, was slightly drunk and talked a
lot.
"Yes, you're very generous. But, I don't understand. Why do you call the alcohol caterpillar spirits?"
Darren asked with furrowed brows.
"This alcohol was the urine of a kind of rare caterpillar," Augustine explained.
"What?" Darren was so disgusted that he spat the alcohol all over Augustine's face.
Augustine frowned as Darren's reaction confused him.
"Ha-ha!" The girl next to them burst into laughter. "You've already had so much of this dirty thing. Didn't
you notice that I haven't touched a drop of it?"
"Bullshit! It is very clean. This kind of caterpillar is specially used to make alcohol. There are no
impurities in it. Bro, your behavior is unacceptable," Augustine said as embarrassment and anger
coursed through him.
"Sorry, bro! I was shocked when you said that it was the urine of a caterpillar.
Screw it! As long as it's tasty, it's okay."
Darren raised his cup again and took a big gulp. Augustine smiled and said, "That's right. Just enjoy it."
Another three days passed. Even a cultivator at the same stage as Darren would lose consciousness
after drinking this much alcohol as its power was more than a hundred thousand times stronger than
that of common strong alcohol in the ordinary world.
When Darren woke, he found himself unable to remember how long he had been asleep and where he
was.
He shook his head to clear the dizziness he was feeling.
However, to his shock, Darren found that he had been bound and placed over a fire.
He glanced around and found that the monkey had also been tied to a stick! As Darren watched, the
monkey was flipped over the fire, like a roasted lamb.
"Oh, my God! There must be some misunderstanding!"
The heat from the fire scorched Darren's skin.
"You don't need to do this. I am not your enemy," Darren said to Augustine and the girl standing in front
of him.
"I'm sorry, buddy. But this is not my decision. My aunt said that you were friends with the monkey, and
that she wanted to grill you and eat you. I didn't dare to stop her."
Darren's eyes flew open when he heard Augustine explain that their aunt was going to eat him.
He glanced at the blackened, dying monkey next to him. He didn't know how to react as the situation
was both funny and annoying.
Darren didn't know what to say either. After all, such a ferocious monkey with terrifying power was
being treated like this.
"Sizz!"
When the monkey noticed Darren's gaze, he bared his sharp teeth.
"Please, tell your aunt that the monkey and I are not friends. He captured me and brought me here."
The heat from the fire was so overwhelming that Darren felt as though he was going to be reduced to
ashes.
The fire's temperature seemed a little higher than the fire produced by the Fire Kylin. If he were to be
roasted for a few more days, Darren would undoubtedly turn into ash.
"Really?" A glimmer of joy reflected in the girl's eyes. "I'll tell aunt to come here right now."
