I have the best bloodline

"So, are you two going to follow Lord Sleeping Dragon?"
After arguing with the diners, the storyteller looked at Su Yan and Huang Yin with great interest and recommended:
"We, the Sleeping Dragon Path, believe in the true dragon. Our only doctrine is to worship the true dragon. We do not seek wealth or lust. We only need to describe the greatness of the true dragon to those around us!"
"Sorry, I'm just here for sightseeing."
Su Yan smiled and waved her hand, rejecting the offer. She decided against believing in dragons and such.
They couldn't even hide, yet they deliberately mingled with a group of people whose lifelong dream was to find the real dragon.
Huang Yin hesitated slightly before waving his hand at the storyteller.
"Really? That's a shame." Seeing this, the storyteller didn't press the matter further, and instead shook his head and returned to his seat to tell the story to everyone for free.
………………
With the storyteller's interruption, the dishes Huang Yin ordered were gradually brought to the table.
Although Khara-Khoto is near the sea, its cuisine mainly features mountain delicacies and wild game, rather than seafood.
Seafood is a luxury item in the cultivation world. Apart from the merfolk and some sea creatures who sell it, most of the seafood requires cultivators to risk their lives to catch it at sea. Therefore, the price of seafood is very high, and ordinary restaurants or inns naturally do not stock it.
"Pooh"
Su Yan picked up a piece of stir-fried pork with her chopsticks, put it in her mouth and chewed it lightly. As she chewed, a fishy, gamey smell, similar to that of cheap mutton, made Su Yan involuntarily open her mouth and spit out the meat, her face showing disgust.
"The stir-fried black goat meat doesn't taste right. Could it have gone bad because it wasn't stored properly in the kitchen?"
"Black goat? No, Senior Su."
Seeing Su Yan's expression of utter disgust, as if struck by lightning, Huang Yin couldn't help but chuckle and say, "The black goat meat is all sold out. This is wild boar stir-fried meat. The gamey smell is probably because it's a male boar and he's old."
Wild boar meat has a very unique texture, with a crisp skin and sweet and tender meat inside. However, the above descriptions are all for young male boars that have just come of age.
Once wild boars are in heat, their meat develops a strange, gamey smell, making it unsuitable for mild cooking methods. They can only be masked with chili peppers and ginger.
Su Yan's senses were too sharp; he could taste the gamey smell that the chef had tried so hard to cover up with just one bite.
Huang Yin smiled and picked up a piece of stir-fried pork. After chewing for a moment, she shivered and spat the pork out of her mouth.
"How could the food be so awful, shopkeeper!"
Huang Yin tasted the stir-fried pork, and a strong, unpleasant muttony smell hit him in the head. The meat was also as tough as an old cow.
Huang Yin was a native of Blackwater City. After taking one bite, he knew that it wasn't that Senior Su was being sensitive, but that there was indeed a big problem with the dish in front of him. Even the oldest wild boar meat could not have this muttony smell!
The old wild boar had a pungent smell somewhat like photinia flowers, and its meat must have been very difficult to chew.
"Oh? Is there anything I can help you with, sir?"
The innkeeper, who was sitting at the counter on the first floor, saw a customer calling him from the second floor. He immediately stopped keeping accounts and tapping the abacus, and with a friendly smile, he jogged upstairs to ask, "What do you need, sir? Would you like a pot of warm wine to accompany the delicacies?"
"Come here!"
Seeing the shopkeeper's smiling face and his audacity in asking if she wanted to make a purchase, Su Yan was delighted. A bright smile spread across Su Yan's face as she waved to the shopkeeper, signaling him to come over and talk.
"Here, shopkeeper, have a taste."
Su Yan picked up a piece of meat with her right chopsticks, using her left hand to support it and prevent it from falling to the ground, so that the shopkeeper could also have a taste.
"What's wrong, sir? Are you not satisfied with the food?"
When the shopkeeper saw Su Yan serving him food, even bringing it to his mouth, he asked, puzzled. However, considering that Huang Yin was a regular customer, he obediently opened his mouth and ate the food Su Yan had served him.
The moment he took a bite, the shopkeeper felt a chill and immediately spat out the piece of meat. He even stuck out his tongue and straightened it, wiping it vigorously with his sleeve as if trying to get rid of the strange taste.
"Are you satisfied, shopkeeper?" Su Yan asked with a smile.
"Oh, sir, what are you saying?" The innkeeper straightened his tongue and said with a bitter face, "The taste is completely wrong. However, I can guarantee with my 300-year-old signboard that our ingredients are absolutely fresh. Didn't I just tell you that because we need to slaughter a pig, the food might be served a little later?"
"How about this? This meal is on me, as an apology from your father to you two. As for why the food is so bad, let's confront the chef now!"
The shopkeeper was now filled with grievances. This pig had clearly just been slaughtered, and he was going to use the offal to make porridge for tonight, but he never expected that the wild boar's meat would be so unpalatable.
"Ahhhh-"
As the innkeeper was apologizing to Su Yan and Huang Yin, and discussing a compensation plan, a series of screams erupted from the inn's kitchen before he could even finish speaking.
The inn's cook, wearing a red apron, ran out of the backyard in a panic. He was so frightened that he tripped over the threshold and knocked over a table not far from the door.
The cook fell to the floor of the lobby, wailing and screaming in terror:
"No, no, no, no! It's terrible, shopkeeper! We've messed up! That pig is dangerous! It's pregnant with a dragon's offspring! We just killed a wild boar that was pregnant with a dragon's offspring!"
The cook's expression was like that of a madman. He didn't even feel pain when the scalding hot soup on the table was poured over him. Instead, he cried out and said the shocking news that shocked everyone present.
The female wild boar that the inn had just slaughtered was pregnant with a dragon's offspring.
This time they've really messed up, they've committed a huge disaster!
Whether the wild boar was carrying a true dragon or the offspring of a sub-dragon, its father sensed it the moment the fetus was killed at the inn.
Although the cook wasn't a cultivator, as a Blackwater City resident who grew up listening to dragon legends, he knew very well that this time, he had really gotten himself into a big mess, so big that no cultivator in Blackwater City could handle it.
"what?!"
The innkeeper, the storyteller, Su Yan, Huang Yin, and even the diners in the inn all looked at the cook with astonished expressions at the same time.
Su Yan didn't know what shocked the others. As a fox-dragon hatched from a dragon egg, Su Yan understood very well that no matter what creature a dragon mates with, the newborn will eventually be born in the form of an egg.
The inn's cook actually recognized the dragon egg?
Are you sure it wasn't a wild boar's gallstone that was cut open?
Can a Body Refinement stage cultivator break a dragon egg?
…………
hello?

Chapter 224 The Nightmare Suppressors are at it again! Auntie!
Chapter 224 Another disturbance! The Nightmare Suppressors are causing trouble again, Auntie!
"We've caused a huge disaster! A truly catastrophic disaster!"
The cook roared like a madman, recounting everything that had just happened in the kitchen to vent his shock. Apart from Su Yan, who remained skeptical due to her knowledge of reproductive matters, the other diners in the inn were all dumbfounded.
In the next instant, the inn was in complete chaos. The huge inn was like a chicken coop, with diners jumping and scrambling to escape through the nearest exit.
Oh my goodness!
The innkeeper staggered, collapsed to the ground, his eyes rolled back, and he lost consciousness. The news the cook had told him was like a bolt from the blue; it terrified him completely.
"Senior Su, what should we do?"
Huang Yin looked somewhat flustered, but unlike the other diners, she didn't rush out of the inn to escape. Instead, she looked at Su Yan and asked for his opinion. After all, panicking to the point of wetting her pants wouldn't solve the problem; it was better to ask an experienced senior for his thoughts.
"I'll go take a look."
After pondering for a moment, Su Yan went straight from the second floor to the lobby and walked towards the backyard of the inn.
He didn't believe for a second that a cook could slay a dragon. Although it was common knowledge that dragons were unrestrained, they weren't indiscriminate eaters who would kill anything. To kill a dragon, one first and foremost needed to possess powerful cultivation.
How could a cook with low cultivation level possibly kill a demon beast carrying a dragon's seed?
Surely his kitchen knife isn't some kind of magical weapon?
Thinking to himself, Su Yan parted the curtain and walked straight into the kitchen in the backyard.
The wood-fired stove in the kitchen was burning, and a large pot seemed to be cooking rice porridge. Because no one was watching the fire or stirring the porridge, the snow-white rice porridge was burning at the bottom and emitting a pungent odor.
The yellowish-black porridge was bubbling, and the slaughtered black-haired wild boar lay on the long table. A wooden basin contained the pig's internal organs, which had been preliminarily cleaned. Pig's blood, kidneys, and other such items had been cut open and the blood inside had been cleaned.
After glancing at the pork on the table, Su Yan looked at the pile of unprocessed offal that had been spilled on the floor.
As the pig intestines, cut open by the scissors, fell to the ground, Su Yan looked up at them and saw the black-haired wild boar's internal organs that the cook had cut open. Su Yan witnessed a scene that he would never forget!
"This...this is not a pig-born dragon! It's an absolute disaster!"
The wild boar's entrails, shredded open with scissors, were resting on the edge of a large wooden basin, while the mammalian embryo, connected to the umbilical cord, hung in mid-air. This must be what the cook had seen earlier as the so-called "pig fetus dragon seed."
Although mammalian embryos are initially quite similar, Su Yan was very certain that it was not the embryo of any other creature.
It must have originated from the human race.
"The technique of creating animals through the Nightmare Suppression Method."
Su Yan couldn't help but vomit, and it took her a long time to utter a single word.
Killing is nothing more than a head falling to the ground. Su Yan was not a naive child who had never seen a dead body. The scene of thousands of Southern Frontier cavalrymen being beheaded by the Red Jade Hairpin Sword was not as impactful as the scene of a living being completely dissected and exposed in front of him.
Su Yan had never seen such a terrifying scene. Even if the demon beasts were used by humans for alchemy and weapon crafting, they would only get their demon cores or a few scales and claws. At least they could preserve a complete corpse, and at worst, they could just gnaw on some flesh and blood to gain some unique abilities.
"."
Su Yan wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, raised his hand and used his magic to retrieve the millstone, then smashed it directly at the burning wood-burning stove, causing the burning firewood inside to scatter and burn throughout the kitchen.
After doing all this, Su Yan silently closed the kitchen door, turned around and walked back to the lobby. He took out two jin of spirit stones and placed them on the counter as compensation for the damage caused by arson that burned down the inn's kitchen.
"Shopkeeper, where did that black-haired pig come from?"
Su Yan looked at the innkeeper who had just woken up and asked him about the origin of the black-haired pig.
The cook didn't kill any pig-born dragon, it's just that Blackwater City seems to be plagued by demons.
The animal creation technique within the Nightmare Suppression Method was originally created by the sages of the human race. The animal creation technique was initially a special technique used for large-scale construction projects!
Transform the massive stones of the city walls into living beings, then have the craftsmen drive them to a designated area, and finally cast a spell to restore the creatures created by the animal-making technique back to their original forms.
It is a technique that benefits the country and its people. However, after a long period of distortion, those cultivators who learned the Nightmare Suppression Technique discovered another use for the Animal Creation Technique.
Not only can it be used to torture enemies, but it can also be used to easily make a fortune.
Therefore, the art of creating animals is a forbidden practice, strictly prohibited in the cultivation world. Once discovered practicing it, the cultivator may even be slaughtered by the Nightmare Suppression Sect.
Who on earth is so crazy as to not only practice the art of creating animals but also flaunt it in public!
"Ah, yes, yes, it's that butcher Kong. He told me before that he had connections with hunters and could get cheap traps for wild boars. I got my goods from him."
The innkeeper, still shaken, asked, "What's the situation inside, Immortal?"
Although he was still afraid, after Huang Yin's guidance and explanation, the shopkeeper already knew that Su Yan, who looked young, was a true immortal.
