Sacrificial Artifact System: From Bell-ringer to the Ancestral Patriarch of the Sect novel Chapter 144

Chapter 144: Chapter 124: The Whole Fish Feast (Request for Monthly Ticket)

Li Qian returned to the Chen Bell Platform, and it wasn’t even 5 a.m. yet. There was no moon, so the sky was still pitch dark.

Bang!

The giant Azure Dragon Fish fell to the ground, starting to struggle violently and bounce up, making loud slapping noises as it hit the ground, scattering pieces of stone and creating a considerable disturbance.

A rustling sound came from the bell tower, followed by Liu Ming walking out.

He was awakened by the noise outside.

Seeing the huge Azure Dragon Fish, Liu Ming was startled and hurriedly asked, "Senior Brother Li, what is this?"

"A rare beast, an Azure Dragon Fish, that I happened to catch. You’re in luck today, we’re going to have a full-fish feast."

Li Qian said with a smile.

"Ah? Senior Brother Li, you’re really going to eat this fish?"

Liu Ming’s eyes widened.

"If we don’t eat it, why would we catch it?"

Li Qian said, "If we can’t finish it, we can smoke it, dry it in the sun, roast it dry..."

He used his Spiritual Perception to check inside the Azure Dragon Fish but didn’t find any demon stones... The fish seemed to have undergone mutation through other means.

By noon.

Li Qian started to process the Azure Dragon Fish.

Although on land for so long, the fish was still full of life.

At this time, his master Zhou Buping also came back.

Seeing such a large Azure Dragon Fish, he exclaimed, "Where did you catch such a big Azure Dragon Spirit Fish?"

"At Pingze Lake."

Li Qian said.

Zhou Buping was surprised and said, "You’re not planning on eating it, are you?"

Li Qian nodded and said, "Yes, such a big fish should taste pretty good. Today, I plan to have a full-fish feast."

"That’s too wasteful."

Zhou Buping shook his head and said, "This Azure Dragon Spirit Fish is said to contain the bloodline of a Jiao Dragon, and if it can be nurtured, it could potentially breed a Jiao Dragon Pearl... When the time comes, killing the fish to retrieve the pearl could be used to concoct a Dragon Spirit Pill, which is said to have amazing effects on breaking through boundaries."

"To breed a Jiao Dragon Pearl from it, we don’t know how long that would take."

Li Qian said, "Moreover, there’s nowhere to raise such a large Azure Dragon Spirit Fish."

"Indeed, it is a dilemma, but as your master, I still feel that eating it directly is too wasteful."

Zhou Buping said.

"It’s not wasteful if we eat it and fill our stomachs."

Li Qian laughed.

As he spoke, he ended the life of the Azure Dragon Spirit Fish with a single sword stroke.

Zhou Buping watched his disciple doing this with mixed feelings, amused and exasperated. If the higher-ups of the sect knew about it, they would probably be hopping mad.

Next, Li Qian began to prepare it.

Thin slices of snow-white fish, as delicate as cicada wings, were carved out by him, placed onto plates, clear and glittering.

"Master, come on, let’s have sashimi. It’s definitely delicious,"

Li Qian said.

He had already had Liu Ming prepare the side dishes.

White wine was also poured.

Next to them was a large pot, filled with a red, boiling hotpot broth, steaming hot.

"Sashimi can be eaten?"

Zhou Buping said, surprised.

"Master, it’s delicious."

Li Qian picked up a slice of sashimi, added some side dishes, swallowed it in one bite, and the delicate and smooth texture of the fish was superb.

Seeing this, Zhou Buping and Liu Ming also tried a piece.

"Eh... didn’t expect this sashimi to be edible, and so soft, sweet, and delicious..."

After having a taste, Zhou Buping also couldn’t stop praising it.

After eating sashimi, they also enjoyed fish slice hotpot, followed by grilled fish slices and milky-white Azure Dragon Fish soup...

After finishing the full-fish feast, the three of them all touched their bulging bellies.

They were too full.

They just couldn’t stop eating.

Li Qian looked at the only little bit eaten Azure Dragon Spirit Fish, which still had such a large volume, and found it a bit of a hassle to deal with.

"Liu Ming, I’ll leave this to you to handle."

He said, patting his belly.

"Alright, Senior Brother Li."

Liu Ming nodded hurriedly.
