Chapter 1359: Eat One More!
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
There was an enormous being with black and white fur that resembled a tiny mountain in front of Tun Tun. It had a pair of large eyes with black eye circles and appeared as lazy as ever. Vitality seemed to return to its eyes once it saw the fruit branch in Tun Tun’s hands as it flashed a warm smile at her.
This was the newest addition to the Wasteland Valley’s community – a Giant Panda named Rollroll.
Tun Tun had seem him before, but Rollroll had always been lazy and neither did he like to move. All he did was sleep after eating, and eating once he woke up. The two of them didn’t interact at all but not in her wildest reams did she expect this fellow to steal her food from right under her nose.
Tun Tun was immediately infuriated and fire seemed to erupt from her nose.
Jieyu wouldn’t beat her up with Bai Guang protecting her. However, the old dragon wasn’t so easily stopped and he employed a non-violent method to exact his revenge – he would open his mouth first and gobble up whatever Tun Tun wanted to eat.
There were some things that Tun Tun had hidden away so that she could slowly enjoy her precious treasures, but even those were swallowed by the old dragon.
This was even more painful for Tun Tun than if she had been physically beaten up. This was the reason why she wasn’t in a particularly good mood, and if Bai Guang hadn’t persuaded Jieyu to knock it off, Tun Tun would have been prepared to crack her head open against the wall.
The old black dragon was finally gone, and Tun Tun could finally relax. She converted her despondence to appetite and she was prepared to enjoy a sumptuous feast so that she could repair her damaged soul. She never expected someone else to come along and steal her food – how could this not make the little Taotie seethe with rage?
She grabbed Liuling and leapt to her feet as she pointed a finger at Rollroll’s nose. Her entire body was shaking with anger, to the point where nothing came out of her mouth.
Rollroll stared at Tun Tun with those innocent eyes of his. It felt like he was smiling warmly and naively, but his tongue suddenly extended from his mouth and several more spiritual fruits disappeared from the fruit branch in Tun Tun’s hands.
“You, Ah!” Tun Tun was so furious that she started to feel amused. She scrutinized Rollroll and thought to herself hatefully, “Hmm, demonic lord advanced stage – that’s higher than me. But he always seems so stupid and fat, and it’s likely that he has probably never battled anyone before in his life. How can he outmatch me in terms of channeling and controlling his powers and abilities?”
“Hmph, that old dragon is already bullying me and this fatty is also trying to bully me. Unacceptable!”
She continued thinking to herself as she placed Liuling on the ground, before she snickered and lunged towards Rollroll.
Rollroll stared at her with curious and confused eyes. The little Taotie raised one hand into the sky, and her pale hand instantly transformed into an large and hideous claw that flickered with icy and metallic hues before she slashed down at Rollroll’s head. Her claw was like a sharp blade as the wind howled from her momentum.
Liuling was also staring blankly at Rollroll, and she screamed in shock when Tun Tun suddenly lashed out.
However, a shrill sound rang out inside the Wasteland Valley that forced Tun Tun to retreat hurriedly. The white Gengjin claw that she unleashed swiftly retracted like a human hand would when touching fire.
“What’s up with this fatty?” Tun Tun stared with her jaw hanging slack at Rollroll, who was still acting as if nothing had happened.
Rollroll didn’t do anything against her previous attack. Instead, he did something that everyone would find extremely comical.
He stuck out his tongue and licked Tun Tun’s claw. It appeared as if he didn’t harbor any hostile or evil intentions at all, and it even seemed like he was trying to act coquettishly.
However, this spelled bad news for Tun Tun. She swallowed the Gengjin Tiger and remade her physical body, but a large patch in the middle of her tough and solid claw began to corrode, and even a few of her talons started to melt away.
Tun Tun continued staring at Rollroll and pondered meticulously about what just transpired. She realized that this fatso’s saliva was designed to corrode metal and the like, and this was of its natural talents.
Once she figured out what was going on, she felt like crying and crumpling into the pile of tears.
She consumed the Gengjin Tiger and remade her physical body and obtained physical strength that was superior to other Taotie of the same mastery. She was stronger in terms of offense and defense compared to the rest of her race at the same mastery, and she still possessed the Taotie’s natural ability, Devour. This meant she found good fortunate through her bad luck, and eventually became a lot stronger than she would have been.
However, her adversary today was Rollroll, and her Gengjin body was coincidentally countered by this fatso. How could this not make Tun Tun feel that life was just too hard?
She watched Rollroll with both sadness and anger in her eyes. “Alright, no wonder you’re not afraid of stealing my food – you have something to fall back on! But don’t you think you’re underestimating me a little?”
She opened her mouth wide, and a wheel of light that resembled a tremendous sun rose into the sky. The radiant and piercing firelight were like needles as they shot and expanded in all directions.
Under Tun Tun’s control, the surging Grand Sun Primordial Flame transformed into a miniature sun and gradually rose through the Wasteland Valley.
The little Xuanming saw that thing and immediately cowered backwards as tears trickled down her cheeks. “Auntie...”
“Hold on for a little while, it will be over soon. Let me take care of this bastard, and grandmother will get something nice for you to eat!” Tun Tun exclaimed before she channeled the miniature sun and slammed it down towards Rollroll.
Rollroll was just sitting at his original spot in all his laziness and fatness. He raised his head towards the sun crashing down at him, and appeared as if he had no idea what was going on.
He blinked his enormous eyes and swung his head from side to side. It felt as if he didn’t understand what was going on, so he decided not to think about it at all before he opened his mouth wide. An immense gravitational power came out from within, and it seemed like he was going to swallow this miniature sun whole.
Tun Tun felt an incredibly outrageous feeling rising from the bottom of her heart. What was more ridiculous was that Rollroll swallowed her Grand Sun Primordial Fire and started huffing and puffing, as if he was munching on something hot. However, he was indeed gradually swallowing down the Grand Sun Primordial Fire.
“Playing this game in front of a Taotie?!” Tun Tun was truly furious at this point. The intense rage and fury on her face disappeared, however, and her expression became a lot more solemn.
She growled and instantly unleashed her true form. She had the body of a goat, the face of a human, her eyes were below her armpits, she had the teeth of a tiger, and limbs like a human. Her roars were like the sounds made by crying infants, except they were a lot more shrill and sharp.
Tun Tun opened her mouth wide once more, and unleashed the Taotie’s signature move – Devour. It felt as if a black hole opened up out of nowhere and released an explosively powerful gravitational power.
The miniature sun that Rollroll was still pushing down his throat suddenly paused in its tracks, and gradually rose back out from Rollroll’s mouth.
Rollroll blinked once, and the suction force coming from his mouth grew stronger as well. The sun formed by the Grand Sun Primordial Fire started sinking downwards once more.
Tun Tun’s eyes were opened as wide as she could while she glared at her adversary. She pushed her innate ability even harder, and these two demons were just opening their mouths and competing over that pint-sized sun. The entire scene just seemed a little comical and borderline ridiculous.
However, everyone that was watching didn’t find it comical at all. These two enormous mouths were like two black holes that constantly sucked on everything around it. Besides that tiny sun, everything around them were swept up as if they were caught in a hurricane, before they were thrown towards the two black holes and sucked inside alternately.
The Taotie’s Devour was stronger in this aspect, but Rollroll’s mastery was higher and this meant Tun Tun was no longer able to keep the advantage.
However, he wasn’t willing to reveal his cosmic form, and the most powerful feature of a being in the demonic lord advanced stage wasn’t released from the beginning to the end. After a while, Tun Tun managed to suck that sun back out.
Just when Tun Tun felt like the tides were turning and she was starting to gain the upper hand, Rollroll suddenly closed his mouth.
Tun Tun was still adding strength, and if not for the fact that she could manipulate Devour at whim, she almost lost control of the miniature sun and it nearly slammed right onto her forehead.
“You look cute and naïve, but you’re actually so cunning! You’re the same as Luo Qingwu!” Tun Tun was indignant. She dispelled the Grand Sun Primordial Fire and stared at Rollroll once more, but Rollroll was just grinning as he lowered his head and daintily licked downwards with his tongue. The fruit branch that drifted onto the ground because of their quick battle was immediately curled back into his mouth.
Everything fell into Tun Tun’s eyes, and she felt a wave of defeat come over her. “I’m battling it out with this...?!”
Rollroll swallowed the spiritual fruits and gazed at Tun Tun with those large and innocent eyes of his. He suddenly spoke in human language, but he wasn’t that familiar with it as he hadn’t been learning for long. “Eat... Eat one more, eat one more... Let, let me eat one more...”
The disciples of the Wasteland Valley who were watching the battle glanced at Rollroll before they turned towards the little Liuling at the side, and immediately erupted into laughter.
Tun Tun’s face was as black as ever. She really wanted to cry as she began to realize how stupid she was for acting like she did.
She pointed towards the tree in the distance in exasperation and said, “You’re in the demonic lord advanced stage after all. You can use your own demonic powers to pluck it down.”
Rollroll’s head swung from side to side as he muttered as if he was disheartened, “I can’t do it.”
At this point, some disciples from the Wasteland Valley passed a voice-projected message to Tun Tun and said, “Aunt Tun Tun, this fella finished everything on the Purefire Pear Tree on his first day here. Senior brother Huang and senior sister Zhuge had no choice but to request Master Kang into the valley so that he could add some access control spell on the spiritual plants inside, so that he can’t pluck them himself.”
“We have been the ones plucking whatever he wants to eat for him.”
Tun Tun suddenly felt her emotions smoothen and joy coursed over her. “He deserves it! Even I haven’t had such an experience.”
However, Tun Tun stared at Rollroll who was still gazing at her with pleading eyes, and the smile on her face immediately froze. “You... You’re not actually...”
Rollroll smiled with an innocent and naïve look and said, “Eat... Eat one more...”
These two demons were just staring into each other’s eyes. Tun Tun suddenly screamed as she turned around and raced away. She spun around after taking two steps out before she cradled little Liuling on the ground and ran away as fast as she could.
However, she didn’t get far before a black shadow flashed before her. The giant panda that was like a tiny mountain appeared before her once more – and he was just gazing at her with pleading eyes.
“That speed... that’s almost as fast as the Nine-Talons Condor King, eh? Yet it feels like he wasn’t trying his best...” Tun Tun tried darting in different directions, but she was eventually blocked off by Rollroll every single time. She wanted to tear open the void to escape, but there was no way she could shake him off and she was just so flustered and exasperated.
Liuling was still lying in Tun tun’s bosom. She stared at the big guy in front of her, and there was only curiosity in her eyes. She clapped her hands repeatedly and exclaimed, “Aunt, aunt, it’s so cute!”
“You little traitor!” Tun Tun snapped angrily. Liuling mumbled, “Aunt, you can eat your own fruits. Give Liuling’s fruit to him.”
Tun Tun had no other choice. She waved her hands and plucked a few fruits for Liuling. “You can feed him. I don’t want to have anything to do with him.”
Liuling carefully passed the spiritual fruit to Rollroll. Rollroll smiled innocently, and his enormous tongue made a licking gesture and excitedly consumed the fruit. Liuling liked what she saw, and she reached out with her tiny hand to stroke Rollroll’s head. Rollroll didn’t try to dodge that at all, and allowed the tiny Xuanming to touch his head and caress his soft fur. He even stuck out his tongue and licked the little Xuanming gently and tenderly.
Liuling was exhilarated, and Tun Tun watched on while she pouted. “Little traitor.”
All of a sudden, Rollroll’s tongue stretched out and licked her on the cheek.
A wailing scream echoed through the Wasteland Valley.
“You... you...” Tun tun glared at Rollroll, and Rollroll blinked his eyes innocently as if he didn’t understand anything at all.
