Instead of Checking In Regularly: I Hide And Cultivate In The Monster-quelling Tower And Become Invi

Chapter 4: Auntie, Don’t Shake Your Hands

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The world was huge, and dry rice was the most important. Only when one was full would they have the strength to exercise.

When Zhou Xuan heard the bell, he quickly left the Demon Subduing Pagoda and went straight to the academy’s canteen.

The academy’s canteen was very large, and the dishes were extremely plentiful. There were nearly a hundred types of demon beast meat alone. Everyone could come here to eat, including the instructors and the students who did odd jobs.

“Auntie, give me some spicy demon rabbit meat.” Zhou Xuan was already hungry.

Seeing that the meat in the spoon was getting lesser and lesser, he quickly said, “Hey, Auntie, don’t shake your hands.”

The auntie in the canteen was always the most magical. Her body was clearly very healthy, but her hands would tremble.

She always scooped a whole full scoop of meat.

However, by the time it reached one’s bowl, there was only one-third of the meat left.

“Auntie, no, Sister, another serving of cold pork ears. Your hand…”

“It’s useless to call me sister. I still have to tremble when I should.” The auntie was expressionless.

Am I not charming enough? Zhou Xuan looked at the unmoved auntie and started to doubt his life.

As the auntie’s hands were trembling badly, he had no choice but to order two more dishes.

A portion of spicy demon rabbit meat, a portion of cold pork ears, a portion of braised lion demon head, a portion of wolfberry chicken demon meat stew, and three hot white steamed buns were Zhou Xuan’s lunch.

Many demon beast meat could nourish the body and was beneficial to cultivation.

The higher the level of the demon beast meat, the higher the nutritional value and the more nourishing it was. Of course, the price was also more expensive.

In the , there was a method to eat dragon liver and phoenix marrow.

Zhou Xuan smacked his lips. Those top-notch ingredients must be very delicious.

After he finished his meal, he was full of energy.

Without delay, he left the cafeteria and rushed back to the Demon Subduing Pagoda.

On the way, he met someone.

That person was wearing a windbreaker and riding a demon beast. He held a spear in his hand.

His name was Song Fan. A month ago, he had joined the Demon Suppression Academy with Zhou Xuan.

The difference was that Zhou Xuan had entered the Demon Subduing Pagoda to do odd jobs, while Song Fan had been chosen by an advanced instructor and had become the focus of the academy’s training.

When Song Fan saw Zhou Xuan, he immediately posed and said, “Little Xuan, how is it? Can my knight riding style score full marks?”

Zhou Xuan glanced at him and then at the demonic beast under him. “I haven’t seen you for two days. Have you become a dog rider?”

Sometimes, the difference between a normal person and a knight could be just a dog.

The demonic beast under Song Fan was a husky that was 2.5 meters long.

In the Transcendent Era, the husky awakened the wolf bloodline in its body and completed its evolution. It became strong and full of demonic aura.

When Song Fan heard this, he said angrily, “Hey, this isn’t a dog. It’s a wolf!”

At this moment, a female student walked past with a female wolf.

When the husky under Song Fan saw this, it drooled. The next moment, it darted out with a whoosh and went straight for the little female wolf in the distance.

Spring had arrived, and all things had been revived.

The husky’s speed exceeded 100km/h in just a few seconds.

It was indeed true that the fastest acceleration did not rely on oil, but on a little female wolf.

Song Fan was caught off guard and was thrown off.

He cursed, “This stupid dog…”

Suddenly, his eyes lit up. “Eh, who’s that female student? Her figure isn’t bad.”

With that, he ran out, not forgetting to look back at Zhou Xuan. “See you later.”

When Zhou Xuan saw this scene, he could not help but shake his head. “A dog is the same as its master. They’re all the same… Speaking of which, just looking at her figure, it’s indeed not bad.”

He returned to the Subduing Pagoda and fed the demon beasts that needed to be fed before entering cultivation.

However, before long, someone came.

Of the two students, one was fat and the other was thin.

Zhou Xuan had interacted with them before and knew their names. One was called Zhang Can, and the other was Lu Si.

They came to collect raw materials from the demon beasts to use.

As a handyman, Zhou Xuan didn’t have much to say to them. He was only in charge of opening the door.

He first opened the door to room 1 and saw the ox demon. Beside it was a bundle of grass that it had not touched.

“You don’t even eat grass. Looks like you’re not hungry,” Zhou Xuan said.

“I want to eat meat, not grass.” The ox demon smacked its lips.

Zhou Xuan chuckled. “Don’t cows eat grass? Why would you eat meat?”

When the ox demon heard this, he said anxiously, “I’m not an ox, I’m an ox demon!”

Zhou Xuan: “…”

A white horse is a horse, but an ox demon is not an ox?

He did not say anything else. He turned around and brought over half a cow leg. “Eat.”

When the ox demon saw the meat, its eyes lit up. However, when it approached, its expression instantly changed.

“Is this beef?”

“That’s right.” Zhou Xuan nodded.

“I don’t eat beef.” The ox demon’s nostrils emitted cold air.

Zhou Xuan glared at him and said, “Why are you so particular? You’re not a cow.”

…

Zhang Can and Lu Si did not care if the ox demon was a cow or not. They did not care if the ox demon ate grass or meat. They only did what they had to do.

After they entered, they neatly cut off the two horns of the ox demon.

The ox demon’s horns would not die even if they were cut off. After a period of time, new horns would grow out. Moreover, the quality of the new horns would not be inferior.

There was power flowing on the horns, which could be used to make weapons, such as daggers. Of course, it could also be used to make a horn to transmit information.

This was also the value of the ox demon. Otherwise, it would have been eaten long ago.

When they went out, Zhou Xuan left behind a large piece of beef leg and took the bundle of grass away.

“Holy sh*t…” The ox demon instantly felt like the world was over.

Zhou Xuan wrote in his work diary that there was something wrong with the bull today. It did not eat grass but ate half a cow’s leg.

After writing, he opened the door of room 2. The tortoise demon inside was pretending to be dead. However, it still could not avoid the fate of being harvested.

Lu Si played with a short knife and glanced at the tortoise demon. “Do you want to shed your shell yourself, or do you want us to peel it for you?”

Seeing that it could not avoid it, the tortoise demon took the initiative to take off its shell.

As a demon beast, it had already completed its evolution. It would not die even if it shed its shell. A new shell would grow out every few months. The new shell would be harder and have stronger defense.

When he passed by room 3, Zhou Xuan threw the bundle of grass in.

“F*ck, you actually let me eat grass?” Wild Bear’s cursing voice came from inside. “I’m not a human, but you’re a real dog!”

“It’s not like you haven’t eaten grass before. Why are you shouting?” Zhou Xuan said indifferently.

Wild Bear was stunned when he heard that. That was a sad story.

Zhou Xuan opened his work log and wrote: “Today, the violent bear demon is suffering from mania. It doesn’t eat meat and eats grass.”

Next, they went to the room where the Lightning Mink was imprisoned and collected its venom.

The Lightning Mink’s venom was very valuable. It could be used to deal with demonic beasts or medicine.

“No, there is not a single drop left.” The Lightning Mink deliberately opened its mouth wide.

“Strange, there seems to be a little less this time,” Fatty Zhang Can said curiously.

What he did not know was that Zhou Xuan had taken two drops in the morning.

Zhou Xuan stood silently at the side with a “Spicy Chili Strip” in his hand.

When the Lightning Mink saw the “Spicy Chilli Strip” in Zhou Xuan’s hand, it didn’t say anything.

Although Zhang Can found it a little strange, he did not probe further. In any case, he was only missing one or two drops, which was within the normal range.

He would definitely not suspect Zhou Xuan.

He had only seen Zhou Xuan’s strength after using the Turtle Breathing Technique to disguise himself as a Silver Four-Star cultivator. He did not expect Zhou Xuan to have already reached the Silver Nine-Star realm.

After collecting the venom, they went to the other rooms for more than an hour before leaving.

After Zhou Xuan sent the two of them away, he could finally do his own thing in peace.

He had evolved his Astral Soul, his realm had soared, and his strength had increased.

However, his physique could not transform and needed to be improved.

There were many ways to improve one’s physique, and the Marrow Cleansing Pill was one of them.

Therefore, he took out the Marrow Cleansing Pill he had obtained from signing in yesterday.

The Marrow Cleansing Pill was not big. It was round and white with special patterns on it.

The patterns on it were relatively simple, indicating that this was a Beginner Marrow Cleansing Pill, most suitable for Silver-grade Demon Hunters.

Zhou Xuan found a quiet corner and consumed the Marrow Cleansing Pill.

The Marrow Cleansing Pill melted as soon as it entered his mouth, turning into a warm current that flowed throughout his body.

It was warm and comfortable, and he couldn’t help but shiver.
