Ironclad Group Chat: Red and Black Lists Engraved with Heroic Epics

[March 7th: Drink...drink what?! Even though you recited a rhyme, it doesn't change the essence at all, right? Besides, who puts good blood in a bottle the size of a mineral water bottle? No normal person could bring themselves to drink it, right?]

[Xing: How about... I make you some blood tofu? Jiaoqiu, heat the oil in the wok!]

[Bai Lu: Pfft! Cough cough cough... What kind of crazy idea is this? You owe me hot goat milk!]

[Hanabi: This is hard to keep up with~~ As expected of you, little gray-haired girl, you've really changed your "essence".]

[Sangbo: Then add some vinegar, chili... why not just move the dressing from the cold ginseng salad over here, then we can have another meal.]

[Star: Let's just buy some more meat and casings and make blood sausage.]

[Jiaoqiu: Oh? In that case, I'll lend a hand as well. I'll buy some scallions, tender garlic, Sichuan peppercorns, and pork intestines, and stir-fry a pot of fragrant, spicy, and piping hot "Red Dragon Blood Tofu" (a Sichuan dish)?]

[Star: Ah~~ This is great! This sounds like the perfect dish to eat with rice! Add two bottles of chilled Sorida, and it'll be absolutely divine! It's like finding a pink and blue gem in a trash can; I wouldn't trade it for a king of destruction!]

[Gui Ji: That's probably something even the Great Ruler of Extinction wouldn't trade.]

[March 7th: Seriously, is it really appropriate for you guys to be discussing this so seriously?! Wait, whose comment just scrolled past?]

[Fireworks: Oh, and to thank Ling Sha Si Ding for her hard work, I'll invite her to eat with me again, to help her recover... hehe...]

March 7th: ?!!!

Using the blood of someone you know—no… using the blood of a dragon you know—to cook a dish on the spot, and then inviting that person to eat it?

Is this an idea that a human could come up with?

Wouldn't Ling Sha's face be greener than the chive blossom sauce in the dipping dish? It would be normal for her to eat him on the spot, wouldn't it?

[Sai Fei'er: Wow~~ What a feast! I wonder if Ling Sha will lock you all in jars and turn you into kimchi after hearing this?]

[Ling Sha: Heh, heh heh, how could I possibly do something so cruel... General Fei Xiao would be displeased.]

[Bai Lu: So, if General Fei Xiao doesn't intervene...]

[Ling Sha: Jiao Qiu, I also have a homemade side dish! The Dan Ding Si's herb garden just harvested a fresh batch of coriander. Long stems, green leaves, and juicy flesh—perfect for hot pot. When you grace Luofu with your presence, that will be the day I bring it to your door for every meal!]

[Star: There are more experts? But if you don't understand, is this some kind of terrifying form of revenge?]

[Feixiao: It depends on who it is. For Jiaoqiu, it might be slightly worse than death.]

Jiaoqiu's smile froze, and her face turned greener than cilantro.

Ahem, the joke seems to have gone a bit too far. And… soon he really will be heading to Luofu with the general. This is extremely bad. Eating hot pot broth contaminated with cilantro every single day… it's practically hell.

[Jiaoqiu: Don't be angry, don't be angry. Ling Sha Si Ding was just joking. I beg for forgiveness.]

[Ling Sha: Hmph.]

Within the light screen, Jiaoqiu remained oblivious to her fate, relentlessly questioning March 7's sincerity: "...Does it really not need it?"

March 7th firmly shook her head: "Really, really, we don't need it!"

[Star: What a pity...]

Jiaoqiu looked slightly disappointed, then turned around as if by some strange impulse: "Since we're already here, are you going to drink, Xing?"

Xing's eyes lit up instantly, and she burst into a wild laugh: "I'm not human anymore! Jiao Jiao! Let me drink!"

[March 7th: You're not human anymore! And what the hell is Jiao Jiao?!]

March 7th stared in disbelief: "Star, do you intend to become an existence beyond humanity?"

Jiaoqiu nodded approvingly; if Xing dared to ask, he dared to give!

"Commendable courage, take it!"

In front of Jiaoqiu and March 7th, Xing opened the bottle cap and tilted her head back: "Glug glug glug glug... Ah~~!"

He downed the drink in one gulp, let out a satisfying burp, and then shook the bottle around to show that he had a huge capacity for alcohol and hadn't wasted a drop.

[March 7th: No, you're really drinking it?!]

March 7th was dumbfounded, gaining a completely new understanding of her audacity and shamelessness.

[March 7th: Um... what does it taste like?]

[Star: Mmm... Smash smash, it's sweet and sour, and it's ice-cold too, so refreshing!]

[March 7th: Huh? ???]

[Bai Lu: Huh? ?? When did the blood of the Vidyadhara become sweet and sour?]

[Sambo: So, is sweet and sour sauce flowing in the veins of the Vidyadharas?]

[Saifeier: So you're saying you're making sweet and sour blood tofu? And then you're going to use it in a spicy hot pot? What kind of bizarre cuisine is this?]

[Tail: What kind of brain circuit is this?!]

This is utterly ridiculous! Ever since Scott… no, maybe it started even before. People with screws loose in their heads are springing up everywhere, like a swarm of locusts crossing a river…

[Fireworks: Impressive drinking capacity! Brave warrior, there's a fierce tiger on Jingyuan Ridge behind the mountain. Drink this bowl 17 more times to get 18 "Wine" stacks, then take him down in a few punches and kicks!]

[Yanqing: Jingyuangang... what are you going to do to the general's pet cat?]

[Ling Sha: Tsk, I see. Jiao Qiu, is there a single truth left in your mouth?]

The star lingers on the sweetness of "Red Dragon Blood," with a refreshing fruity aroma and a perfectly balanced tartness, all while enjoying a smooth, sandy texture.

Ling Sha appeared beside them: "Jiao Qiu, stop teasing them. This bottle of yours contains Xi Hong juice, doesn't it?"

[Star: It was just juice after all?]

[March 7th: What are you disappointed about? Ugh~~ I knew it, using those kinds of bottles to hold blood is just too much.]

Jiaoqiu smiled faintly: "Lord Lingsha has an excellent nose."

March 7th scratched his head: "I think I see now. This isn't some test you two devised to teach me some kind of lesson, is it?"

"That's a real misunderstanding," Ling Sha laughed. "I just wanted to see how adorable Miss San Yue's reaction would be."

[Star: I was just kidding.]

[March 7th: Uh... wait, you guys... planned this? What about just now...]

[Ling Sha: Just now? There weren't so many busybodies interrupting on the screen, and the chef certainly didn't have the freedom to improvise. It's perfectly reasonable for me to use their own methods against them, isn't it?]

[Star: That makes perfect sense! Those people are really going too far. How could they say such absurd and nonsensical things?]

[Saifeier: Hey, Grey, don't act like it's none of your business.]

[Bai Lu: Even though she's a demon herself, she's still so strict with me...]

Upon hearing such an honest confession, March 7th was immediately stunned.

These two are quite prominent figures, this is just too much...

"...Then I haven't gotten anything at all?"

Jiaoqiu laughed, "How could that be, Miss March? Please think carefully about the medicinal meals you ate—you got a balanced diet, a regular sleep schedule, and daily exercise! In the end, you gained a healthy body!"
