“Se… Senior An Lin?” Yao Xiu asked nervously.
“It’s OK, I haven’t gone mad. Go make the soup, didn’t you say it has high calcium content? Don’t waste the eggshells,” An Lin nodded and spoke calmly.
Had he really not gone mad?
Da Bai and Xiao Chou both grimaced in unison.
Yao Xiu approached An Lin extremely cautiously as if she were a frightened and guilty kitten.
She stared at An Lin with a hint of fear in her eyes as she extended her slim hands in front of her. “Should I really make the eggshells into soup?”
An Lin nodded earnestly and handed the eggshells to her.
Yao Xiu: “…”
Knock knock knock… crack crack crack…
The kitchen was once again filled with the sound of cooking.
Soon, Yao Xiu had started a fire and began to boil the eggshells.
Everyone sat down around the table.
An extremely alluring aroma wafted from the dishes on the table.
This was partly due to Yao Xiu’s cooking skills and partly due to the fact that the egg of their younger brother was an extremely delicious ingredient in itself.
Da Bai had already forgotten his grief, and he stared intently at the dishes on the table.
Da Bai couldn’t help but swallow at the sight of the food in front of it. With his acute sense of smell, the delicious food on the table was simply irresistible.
“Let’s tuck in, everyone, don’t let our younger brother’s sacrifice be in vain,” An Lin spoke as he picked up his chopsticks.
Xiao Chou: “…”
Xiao Hong: “…”
Da Bai: “…”
Yao Mingxi and Yao Xiu: “…”
An Lin did not take notice of everyone’s expressions.
He had already convinced himself that it was better to experience Xiao Lan with all his heart, rather than mourning and feeling despair over it.
He picked up a piece of the egg with lobster first.
The lobster’s shell had already been cracked open by Yao Xiu, exposing the soft, white lobster flesh within which was coated with a layer delicious egg yolk, giving the flesh a delightful golden hue. An extremely alluring aroma wafted through the air.
An Lin placed the tender lobster meat into his mouth and his taste buds were immediately enveloped in an exquisite taste, causing his body to tremble.
He chewed slowly, savoring the taste in his mouth. “Delicious…”
Da Bai also began to eat after An Lin.
The dish closest to him was the egg rolls.
In all honesty, the dishes presented an irresistible temptation to him and all that was stopping him was a sense of grief and guilt in its heart.
The taste of the egg rolls was indescribable, it was simply far too delicious!
Xiao Hong transformed into her captivating human form. Her eyes met with Xiao Chou’s and they both also picked up their chopsticks.
If their master was eating, then they had to as well!
The egg with lotus root was crispy and aromatic, making them completely unable to stop eating.
Yao Xiu wiped away the tears in her red-rimmed eyes and chewed down heavily on her lower lip as she picked up her chopsticks with trembling fingers.
Yao Mingxi also began to follow suit.
The Fairy Dragon egg was not only extremely delicious, but the energy contained within was not inferior to a low tier immortal fruit. At the same time as they were experiencing a delicacy, their cultivation bases were also receiving a boost!
An Lin sniffled as tears streaked down his cheeks. “Xiao Lan, I’ll never forget you, your taste, your texture, and the energy you’ve imbued me with, all of it will be motivation for me to advance further!”
Upon hearing An Lin’s words, tears also welled up in Da Bai’s eyes, but his chopsticks did not rest for a second. “Younger brother, I pray for your sake that there’s no murder and slaughter on the other side.”
Xiao Chou and Xiao Hong also began to cry and their tears began to drip down onto the table.
“I was on the brink of becoming an older brother, who would have thought… sigh, farewell Xiao Lan.” Xiao Chou placed a piece of an omelet onto his plate as he wept.
Due to the fact that the Icy Flame Fairy Dragon was a fire type beast, not only was consuming the egg aided in the growth of Xiao Chou’s cultivation base, even his black flames were becoming more powerful.
Xiao Hong placed a piece of egg with lotus root into her mouth and was immediately treated to a peerlessly delicious and fresh taste. She felt as if her whole body was basking in comfort as she lied in an immortal realm. “Sob sob sob… there’ll be no one to inherit my photosynthesis skills, sob sob sob…”
She sobbed as she chewed on the egg with lotus root.
Yao Mingxi and Yao Xiu were also crying as they ate. They were extremely remorseful for the heinous crime they committed.
The atmosphere throughout the whole meal was a very strange one.
Everyone was grief-stricken and shed tears.
But they didn’t stop eating. Instead, they were mourning as they ate.
This was because… the dishes on the table…
Were simply far too delicious!
They couldn’t stop.
After eating a whole plate of thousand-layer egg ribs, Da Bai grabbed the plate in his paws and began to lick the plate clean. “This is all that’s left of our younger brother, we can’t waste anything, woof!”
Everyone: “…”
Thus, the egg feast was devoured under a gloomy cloud of remorse and mourning. Even a bucket full of egg fried rice had been completely emptied.
Yao Xiu brought out the eggshell soup from the kitchen.
Everyone drank the delicious soup and tears began to flow once again.
“Yao Mingxi, Yao Xiu, you don’t have to be too critical of yourselves. The main factor that led to this tragedy was the fact that I didn’t look after our younger brother with proper care.” An Lin felt as if he had been revitalized after he took a sip of the delicious soup. “Now that we have eaten our younger brother… he shall live on in all of us!”
Everyone stirred at his words and echoed his sentiment, “Our younger brother will live on in all of us!”
An Lin raised his bowl into the air. “Let’s all drink to our younger brother!”
Everyone looked at each other before raising their bowls. “To our younger brother!”
Glug glug…
After finishing the soup, Da Bai even went as far as to eat all the eggshells at the bottom of the soup pot. It was high in calcium content after all.
Soon, the last trace of Xiao Lan’s existence on this earth had been exterminated by An Lin and everyone else.
“Burp…”
Da Bai accidentally burped before blushing and averting his gaze awkwardly.
Everyone had no choice but to admit…
Their younger brother really was delicious.
Everyone was full after demolishing the feast of egg dishes and began to sigh with emotion.
Even though An Lin had told them not to pin the blame on themselves, Yao Mingxi and Yao Xiu were still wracked with guilt. They wanted to burst into tears again.
They had never met such a kind and thoughtful person in their lives. To be able to have such a person as their idol was like a vast fortune they did not deserve!
On the flip side, Da Bai, Xiao Chou, and Xiao Hong had already recovered. They were still sad, but they had accepted reality.
An Lin patted his stomach and announced with a solemn expression, “I hope everyone can remember this day as the day of Xiao Lan’s death, lest we forget.”
Everyone nodded in response.
That night was a night they were destined to remember for the rest of their lives.
Regardless of whether it was the heart-wrenching grief or the first-rate cuisine, they would definitely not forget the events of today.
That night, a galaxy of stars appeared in the sky alongside a dazzling moon.
There was still a faint lingering aroma in the room, but some things no longer lingered in their lives.
As everyone mourned, something belonging to the Dragon Clan of the West rose slowly into the night sky, before descending elsewhere.
