Chapter 6064, You Use A Lot of Hard Words

Author: Silavin

“Subsistence?” Yang Ji tilted his head at this unfamiliar term.

“Do you not need to take in food?” The Heavenly Demon Queen seemed a little surprised at first. After all, even children would know about food, right? However, upon remembering that people at his cultivation realm truly did not need food, she just sighed in her heart, not expecting much. [He requires sleep but not subsistence? This jest is too much.]

“Oh, you’re hungry? Here.” Yang Ji seemed to have realised something and took out Open Heaven Pills. Open Heaven Pills were both a form of currency and cultivation material for cultivators. Technically, children who were weaker in cultivation like Yang Ling would not carry them unless they reached the Emperor Realm, since such potent materials would be more detrimental to them than helpful. Yang Ji and Yang Xu were just exceptions in this case.

Still, the food that the Heavenly Demon Queen was seeking were not these Pills. She wanted a proper meal after so long…

“This is not even food…” The Heavenly Demon Queen would have slapped her own face if she had arms. “Does your family not have meals to socialise?”

“Meals to socialise? You mean eat together? Ermm… I don’t think so. Most of us don’t really get hungry, and sometimes people need to enter secluded cultivation. So, we don’t really eat together. Also, even if I don’t eat these Pills, Mother Ning Chang will just keep giving us more.” Yang Ji said as matter of factly. He seems to be suggesting for her to not be humble and just take the Pill.

How could the Heavenly Demon Queen not understand his underlying words? She was not even trying to be humble. She just wanted to eat a proper meal for once, after so long.

“Then, can you bring me to a culinary establishment to get food?” The Heavenly Demonic Queen said, more direct this time. [It is evident that this boy requires forthright communication…]

“Culinary establishment? You know, you use a lot of hard to understand words. But I guess you are asking for a restaurant right?” Yang Ji at least managed to deduce this.

“Exactly. A restaurant.” The Heavenly Demonic Queen thought for a moment and then gave a slow nod. Though she did not wish to lower herself down, it was evident that it would be hard for the boy to understand her if she kept speaking in her usual manner.

Still, she could not help but add, “Also, do not chastise me when you are the one with paltry vocabulary. Do they not educate you?”

However, obviously, such terms flew over Yang Ji’s head as he ignored it. It was not that he did not know she was faulting him. He could have guessed as much even if he did not understand her words. He was just following one of Uncle Yang Xiao’s teachings: ‘Listen to me Yang Ji, if a woman scolds you, just stay silent. It would be best if she moved on from the topic. If not, try to be the one who moves away from the current topic.’

Such great ‘wisdom’ had certainly proved useful. Indeed, the topic easily shifted as Yang Ji just continued, “But if you want to go to a restaurant, we need to wait for Yang Xu and Yang Ling to wake up. I can’t go off without them.”

“But surely that ignorant Sister of yours does not wish to associate with me.” Remembering what had happened before, the Heavenly Demon Queen brought up this issue.

“It’ll be fine. Yang Xu always listens to me. Also, if I don’t say anything beforehand and leave without her, she would pout for the rest of the day. I also think Yang Ling would like you. She adores wo– animals like you.” Yang Ji smiled.

“Oh? That little one had such discerning eyes? Very well, I do hope to meet such beings who appreciate me.”

Yang Ji just gave a small nod and then soon disappeared into the Void to reappear back inside his bedroom.

His appearance was soon accompanied by a voice.

“If she could talk, why didn’t she talk to us in the first place?”

The first voice that came was Yang Xu, who already knew of the whole situation. After all, Yang Ji could immediately share his thoughts, emotions, and even cultivation with Yang Xu. Even his memories could be shared with her; such was the power of the Heaven Earth Symmetry Cultivation Technique.

So, there was no need to elaborate. Yang Xu immediately understood the situation. In fact, it was because she understood that her attitude towards the Heavenly Demon Queen became colder. After all, who was this little vixen who was trying to treat her Brother like her servant?

If Yang Xu could, she would tear that worm apart. However, she knew that Yang Ji saw her as an interesting pet. So, she would let this slide for now.

Regardless, the more pressing matter was going out. There was no need to make a fuss here right now. She could deal with this worm at another time.

Yang Ji just looked at the Heavenly Demon Queen, awaiting her answer.

Seeing how an answer was needed, she casually went out of Yang Ji’s Dantian, which shocked the Twins.

“Wait. How are you able to come out so easily!?” Yang Xu immediately raised her vigilance. The Arrays placed on Yang Ji seemed to have become nonexistent. These were Arrays that Uncle Eleven had placed! They were not something that even Yang Xu and Yang Ji would easily destroy. 

“Oh? Those restrictions. They only work mono-directionally, to contain this Queen in one vessel. But, can this Queen not transverse through two vessels?” The Heavenly Demon Queen said this as though in triumph; as though she was showing off.

After all, she had basically outsmarted a being that was close to the World Creation Realm, and an actual World Creation Realm expert. Such a feat certainly deserves praise. 

“Wait… two vessels? You mean you came out of me!?” Yang Xu now felt all dirty inside.

“Indeed.” The Heavenly Demon Queen did not refute and just said as much.

“I no longer feel the Arrays on me. I guess you must have gotten out of Yang Xu and consumed them?” Yang Ji this time focused on where the Arrays were supposed to be to find his body completely free of them. It had to be said that Little Eleven would naturally not impose Arrays that would hinder a child’s body or make them feel uncomfortable. Furthermore, he would hide them since they would look like tattoos and would raise questions.

Little Eleven did not want to play a part in negatively influencing the children, especially not when Yang Ji would sometimes bath with his Younger Siblings. Also, since the matter with the Heavenly Demon Queen was sensitive, it was best to prevent onset questions from appearing. 

The Heavenly Demon Queen, in her small form, gave a small nod. It looked cute to Yang Ji, but looked utterly repulsive to Yang Xu.

“As for my articulation, that I cannot say.” The Heavenly Demon Queen was personally fine with telling them more, but she could already feel this was touching upon the World Restriction–the same restriction that prevented Mo from speaking more.
