Pretending To Be A Boss

The dragon's roar was not only heard by Akasi and Tang Suoye.

In March Marsh, where thousands of beasts bowed their heads, Dong Ran and Qiao Shanshan also ran out from the small building at the center of the lake.

Even Li Xiaoyu didn't expect Tang Xian's entrance to be like this.

When the huge dragon's body landed on the lakeshore, looking at Tang Xiaojiu holding Tang Bingxiang on her shoulder with Tang Gazi standing atop, and a calm Tang Xian strolling towards the small building at the lake's center, the girls finally snapped out of their shock.

Qiao Shanshan was more baffled than Dong Ran. Dong Ran's thought was that Tang really was impressive, returning on a dragon no less.

She won't even think about where Tang Xian got the dragon from. It seems she had already developed the habit of not finding anything Tang Xian did surprising.

Qiao Shanshan is an intellectual after all, seeing such an unscientific creature for the first time, she was surprised but also wondered how this person vanished for a month and then somehow managed to trick a dragon into coming back with him.

Wait, why did I say "again"?

Qiao Shanshan shook her head, too lazy to think, and decided it would be better to wait for Tang Xian to explain himself.

"This place is nice, more comfortable than my treehouse."

Whether it's leaving or reuniting, Tang Xian always reacted very calmly.

As if he had never left.

Before long, Akasi and Tang Suoye had also arrived.

"Welcome back," Akasi said, carrying a huge pig's head, smiling at Tang Xian.

Whether human or beast, the little treehouse gang had finally gathered in one place.

Tang Xian naturally took the pig's head from Akasi's hand and said,

"Pig's head meat is mild, sweet and salty in flavor, nourishing to eliminate deficiency, enriching yin, enriching blood, and moistening dryness. There are many ways to eat it."

"In Huaiyang cuisine, 'braised whole pig's head' is of the utmost culinary refinement, considered a long-standing famous dish from Huaiyang. I'll handle it. Xiaojiu, come over and assist me; the rest of you can rest."

Seeing this scene, the girls were the happiest, their eyes lit up with excitement.

Li Xiaoyu hadn't eaten Tang Xian's cooking many times, and was puzzled by Dong Ran and the others' exaggerated reactions.

But watching Tang Xian skillfully cut the pig's head, she roughly understood why.

"What should I do?" a strange voice asked.

Everyone was stunned, only to see the giant dragon on the lakeshore disappear, the speaker with a full forehead and jade-like face exuded a domineering aura of reigning over the world.

Those who were already privy to some of Qing JiuYu and Bai Mansheng's secrets quickly guessed who the newcomer was.

Without waiting to be asked, Tang Xian said,

"You don't need to help, you're clumsy. Just be a good mount, that's enough."

"By the way, this dragon from the Ashen Sea in the south is known as the Guarding Sea Azure Dragon; he's currently working for me. His full name is Tang Feiji, nickname Tang Ao."

The crowd was first taken aback, marveling at what Tang Xian had gone through, then suddenly sympathized with this man with a dragon-like presence.

Among the names Tang Xian had ever come up with, this one was surely the most embarrassing, even more pitiable than Tang Bingxiang, Tang Gazi, and Tang.

In the ancient past, airplanes were a means of transportation, and tanks were too, although the latter was limited to battle-hardened nations and Syrian laborers.

However, as internet culture evolved, battling with airplanes became a national pastime, and in the Abstinence Bar, many pilots repented their former flying ways, incessantly advising future pilots of the perils of excessive flight.

Tanks weren't simple either, shifting from a transportation tool of Syrian laborers and battle-hardened nations to a tonnage-class weapon of destruction for the middle-aged and elderly.

Fortunately, Tang Feiji himself didn't understand any of this.

The architecture of the small building at the center of the lake was basically modeled after modern villas, with everyone having their own room, as well as a living room, drawing room, and a kitchen.

Although it was all built from nearby trees, the construction was extremely meticulous, and except in a natural disaster, it would not be in danger of collapse.

Li Xiaoyu felt she should do something.

After all, even a young girl like Tang Xiaojiu was helping out.

But before she could enter the kitchen, she heard Tang Xian say,

"Stay aside, although the pig's head won't open its eyes, I don't want to find hair in my food, the kitchen is a serious place."

So Li Xiaoyu was kicked out just like that, feeling quite discredited.

Suddenly she remembered, Tang Xian liked girls who could cook, so she decided immediately to learn how to cook in the future.

The braised whole pig's head was quickly finished by Tang Xian.

The table of people finally entered the anticipated phase of eating while asking questions.

Enjoying the delicious food and listening to Tang Xian talk about his experiences over the month and answering everyone's questions was a very interesting thing to do.

Tang Xian knew the group had many questions, so he shared his experiences, from the island to the bottom of the sea, and then back to Pyramid.

He mentioned his trip to the crimson wasteland.

Li Xiaoyu frowned, her concerns differed from the rest; what mattered to her was—

There were too many women around Tang Xian.

Temporarily disregarding Qiao and Dong Ran, Tang Xiaojiu was just a cute child, all of which she tacitly accepted.

But as Tang Xian slowly unfolded his story, she suddenly realized there were many people she didn't know.

Like Jin Lu dressed in leopard print, the white-clad, literary snake spirit Bai Mansheng, and the true fox spirit Qing JiuYu whom Tang Xian mentioned at least four times.

Li Xiaoyu felt the pig's head meat was not tasty at all, sour even.

Although she was troubled, she didn't speak up.
