In the Land of Lawlessness, after some deep consideration, Luo Xiu chose a mountain hollow not far from the Palace of the King of Law to place the Thunderstrike Wood.

The Thunderstrike Wood was already a charred tree, and setting it amidst the bare mountain hollow only made it appear more desolate. However, once Hua Muyan planted the area full of flowers, it would become a warm and comfortable home for the Thundering Bees.

Luo Ying asked, "Young Master, what should we name this place?"

Luo Xiu thought for a moment and said, "Let's call it Thundering Mountain."

"Chen Shuisheng, can Dou Dou go get the honey now?" Dou Dou grabbed Luo Xiu's hand and shook it, her small face filled with anticipation. She looked impatient, even ravenous.

Beside them, Kuang Pi nodded repeatedly, also looking at Luo Xiu with an urgent gaze. For a bear, honey was an irresistible temptation. Besides, this wasn't ordinary honey; it was Thunder Paste. Both Dou Dou and Kuang Pi were users of thunder, so compared to ordinary people, this Thunder Paste was even more beneficial for them.

Luo Xiu smiled. "Do we even need to go get it? We can just have them bring it to us."

"Correct," Lei Luan chimed in from the side. "I have already issued an order as the Bee King. From now on, if you want Thunder Paste, you can have them bring it directly to you."

After a pause, Lei Luan looked at Luo Xiu again. "By the way, Your Majesty, the origin of this Thunderstrike Wood is ancient and untraceable. When my Residual Soul resided within it, I faintly sensed traces of the mysteries of the Thunder Path, but I was never able to comprehend them."

"If I'm not mistaken, this Thunderstrike Wood contains Divine Skills, just waiting for a fated person to comprehend them."

Hearing this, Luo Xiu glanced at Dou Dou and Kuang Pi.

Kuang Pi laughed heartily. "This brother already has the Wild Thunder Destroying Divine Lance. Let Dou Dou have a go!"

Dou Dou looked at Kuang Pi, touched. "I was waiting for you to say that!"

Luo Xiu ruffled her hair. "Get yourself in the right state of mind first. The Thunderstrike Wood isn't going anywhere; you have all the time in the world to comprehend it."

Afterward, Luo Xiu left Thundering Mountain alone. With nothing else to do, he decided to take a tour of the area.

In the Fox Clan's territory, the bones of the Fire Dragon had been cut into bricks and were stacked neatly in an open space. Each bone brick had been polished and shone with a moist luster like fine jade. Using Divine Beast bone bricks to build a house was a bit too extravagant, but the Fire Dragon's skeleton was simply too massive, and Luo Xiu genuinely didn't know how else to use it. So, building a palace was the only option.

After strolling around the Fox Clan area and greeting the brothers Yue Yong and Yue Zhan, Luo Xiu went to check on the Primordial Divine Vine. He hadn't been there for several days, and the vine had grown even more lush, but there were no other abnormalities.

Wandering back, Luo Xiu returned to the Palace of the King of Law. Feeling weary, he found a place to lie down for a short rest.

...

Hua Muyan had gone to Thundering Mountain to plant flowers, Luo Ying was treating the wounds of the people from the Heavenly Gull Sect while also lecturing them on their new allegiances, and since Yang Zhilu lived a pampered life and her ten fingers never touched spring water, the task of cooking fell to Dou Dou and Yaya.

"Heat the pot, pour the oil!"

"Chili powder, throw it in!"

"Soy sauce from '82, throw it in!"

"Garlic too, throw it in!"

"Essence from the Little Pouch, throw it in!"

Gripping a spatula in her small hands, Yaya stood enthusiastically before a large iron wok, mimicking Hua Muyan's usual cooking style. Using the Dao Yuan refined from the Little Pouch as a condiment was indeed quite a flex.

On the other side, Dou Dou was squatting in front of her beloved Kun-stewing Divine Cauldron, brewing honey pomelo tea. Biting her little pink tongue, she hummed a tune, her expression focused and serious, looking utterly adorable.

"Honey, honey, yummy honey..."

"La dee da, la dee da, la dee dee..."

Kuang Pi squatted nearby, completely ignoring Dou Dou's bewitching song. His eyes were glued to the Kun-stewing Divine Cauldron, and he was drooling with desire.

After a long day's work, San Fei returned home, exhausted in body and soul. They were currently sitting side by side on little stools, engrossed in an episode of Ultraman Seven that Dou Dou had previously downloaded onto Luo Xiu's phone. They had nearly come to blows earlier while arguing over which Ultraman was the coolest.

"Everyone, dinner's ready!" Dou Dou suddenly shouted.

Then, the humans and demons all gathered around a table in high spirits. After a few cups of the honey tea, everyone felt as if they were floating. Even diluted with water, the Thunder Paste was incredibly potent and oh-so-sweet.

Upon entering their stomachs, it transformed into a stream of pure Spiritual Power that surged into their Dantians, nourishing their limbs, bodies, and meridians. Everyone felt a tingling numbness all over, with faint arcs of electricity sparking across their skin.

While feeling the changes in her own body, Luo Ying said, "Spiritual Power is generating in my Dantian, equivalent to a month of normal cultivation. My internal and external injuries are also healing at a significantly increased rate."

"Additionally, it seems to have a body-tempering and strengthening effect. However, the Kun-stewing Divine Cauldron is partly responsible for such a powerful effect."

Kuang Pi laughed heartily. "Regardless, this Thunder Paste is even stronger than Dao Yuan! No wonder those Upper Realm nobodies are trying every trick in the book to get it."

Luo Ying looked at Luo Xiu. "This Thunder Paste truly is a treasure. If just drinking it diluted in tea has such effects, an ordinary person probably couldn't handle eating it directly."

As she spoke, she suddenly froze, noticing that Luo Xiu's expression was awful. Unlike the others, who were euphoric after drinking Dou Dou's special "honey tea," Luo Xiu looked as if he had swallowed poison and was suffering immense pain.

"Young Master, could it be that you...?" Luo Ying's beautiful eyes widened in realization.

This Thunder Paste was Yang-natured! And Luo Xiu, with his Nine Yang Constitution, already had an overabundance of Yang Energy. Drinking this was like pouring oil on a fire, making a bad situation even worse.

"Um, you all eat first. I'll take the Young Master to rest," Luo Ying said, helping Luo Xiu up. She hurried into the palace and found an empty room.

The moment they entered, Luo Xiu could wait no longer. He swept Luo Ying into his arms and carried her toward the large bed, her clothes scattering across the floor.

"Ah... Young Master, don't be in such a hurry."

Burning with fever and drenched in sweat, Luo Xiu grabbed Luo Ying's hair with one hand and pressed her head down toward his abdomen.

"Mmm..."

Luo Ying was suddenly overwhelmed by a strong feeling of suffocation.

At that moment, behind the large bed, Yang Zhilu was hiding inside a cabinet. She clamped a hand over her mouth, her delicate body trembling. She had been recuperating in this room all along. When she heard the commotion outside, including Luo Xiu's shameless words, she had immediately found a place to hide. She hadn't expected her fears to come true... that such a scene would actually unfold!

This Luo Xiu... he's like a beast! So savage.

And this Luo Ying... she always seems so gentle and dignified. I can't believe she's also... so shameless.

Never mind. See no evil, hear no evil.

「Somewhere in the Ancient God Ruins.」

Yao Yi crouched by a stream, splashing the bone-chilling water on his face to wash away his haggard look.

"Sect Master, what do we do now?"

Yu Qingfeng sat beside him and sighed. "Whether Chen Shuisheng and his group are dead or not, we can't go back to the Divine Bone Forest." He thought for a moment before adding, "Let's find the Swordfire Divine Sect. The Sect Master and I are old friends. If we follow him to explore Burial God Hill, even if we don't get the meat, we can at least get some of the broth."

Yao Yi nodded. "That's our only option now. If Chen Shuisheng and the others aren't dead and they manage to find us, we'll be safe under the Swordfire Divine Sect's protection. They won't be able to make any trouble."

He sighed again. "It's just a pity. That small piece of Thunder Paste we worked so hard to get was wasted just like that."
