Chapter 11 Gu Yue: Na'er, you have disappointed me greatly!
The nice restaurant Ye Xinglan mentioned wasn't in the bustling area of Shrek City, but in a quiet alley.
This is consistent with Ye Xinglan's usual preference for a quiet and aloof style.
"I'd like a serving of braised pork belly, a serving of eggplant with salted egg yolk, a serving of deep-fried sea shrimp, and a serving of stir-fried beef..."
Na'er held the menu and rattled off a long list of dishes as if reciting a tongue twister.
Although she had never been to this restaurant before, as the number one foodie in the Sea God Pavilion, Na'er was extremely familiar with almost 99% of the dish names.
It's just that the same dish can look different when prepared by different chefs.
When Na'er rattled off more than a dozen dishes, the waiter in charge of taking orders was momentarily dumbfounded.
How come this seemingly small girl, who doesn't have much of an appetite, orders food so wildly?
"Alright, that's all."
Na'er put down the menu and decided to start with some appetizers.
Holding the written-down menu, the waiter couldn't help but call out to confirm:
"Miss, are you sure you want to order so much?"
"The portions at our restaurant are always very generous."
The waiter clearly didn't think the three teenagers in front of him could handle so much food.
"Yes, I'm sure."
Na'er nodded.
This is nothing!
This is far from the limit of Na'er's appetite.
Na'er just thought that if she ordered any more, there wouldn't be enough room on the table, so she planned to do it in batches.
"My sister has a special condition, let's serve the food."
Ling Luo offered an explanation.
Seeing this, the waiter said no more and took the densely packed menu to the kitchen.
In the world of Soul Masters, there are all sorts of strange and unusual constitutions.
Soon, the first batch of dishes was served.
Na'er, whose little belly had already shrunk a bit, couldn't wait to pick up her chopsticks and start gulping down food.
Ye Xinglan and Ling Luo were already used to the terrifying way Na'er ate.
The waiter, who had previously doubted whether Na'er and her two companions could finish so much food, realized how ridiculous his previous thoughts were after seeing the empty plates on the table and the new menu with dozens of dishes.
This seemingly delicate and beautiful girl's appetite cannot be measured by her size!
"Xinglan, you have excellent taste."
Na'er ate heartily while giving a thumbs-up in praise.
Although she was sometimes quite wary of Ye Xinglan, as a qualified food lover, Na'er's appreciation for food never wavered.
Ye Xinglan's lips twitched slightly.
Having gained the approval of a seasoned foodie like Na'er, shouldn't she be proud of herself in some ways?
Compared to Na'er's wildness, Ye Xinglan and Ling Luo's meal was much more normal.
"Looks like you're enjoying your meal."
A slightly indifferent voice slowly rang out.
The three of them looked in the direction of the sound.
A girl whose face resembled Na'er's by about 60% walked towards them.
Her gaze lingered on Ling Luo for a moment, then fell on Na'er, who was enjoying her meal.
Upon seeing this person, Na'er even stopped eating, a rare occurrence for her.
Her expression changed:
What are you doing here?
Judging from Na'er's reaction, Ling Luo had probably guessed the girl's identity.
"Na'er, what's this?" he asked, feigning ignorance.
Na'er paused, then explained:
"Gu Yue, that's the one I mentioned before..."
"My sister who has been separated from me for many years."
Indeed, the person who arrived was Gu Yue, another branch of the Silver Dragon King's soul, who should have been a disciple of the Heavenly Phoenix Douluo in the Spirit Pagoda.
Because there was no bet as described in the original story, Gu Yue did not deliberately make her appearance ordinary.
That's why she looks about 60% similar to Na-er.
Na'er was also very surprised to see her here.
Fortunately, after the Spirit Tower's list of young geniuses was announced, Na'er, because Gu Yue looked six parts like herself, fabricated an identity for Gu Yue as her long-lost sister whom she thought had died in an accident, and claimed that the two did not have a good relationship.
Yunming and Yali are not the type of people who like to force Na'er to do things she doesn't like.
So even after learning that Gu Yue was Na'er's "older sister", she did not force the two to acknowledge each other.
They gently told Na'er that if she wanted to be reunited with her sisters, they would grant her wish even if the opposite side was the Spirit Pagoda.
Therefore, she could explain Gu Yue's identity.
Seemingly worried about revealing something, Na'er had no intention of continuing her conversation with Gu Yue there.
She wiped her mouth, then stood up and said to Ling Luo:
"Ling Luo, Xing Lan, I have something to discuss with her. I need to leave for a bit."
After saying that, Na'er took Gu Yue's hand and led her out.
After arriving at a secluded grove of trees where no one was around, Na'er finally let go of Gu Yue's hand.
Her complexion was rather pale.
"Why aren't you staying in your Spirit Pagoda and completing your mission? What are you doing here?"
Gu Yue merely gave a cold laugh in response to Na'er's question.
She crossed her arms and said calmly:
"My mission is progressing smoothly; I'm just here to check on yours."
Gu Yue paused here, a mocking smile playing on her lips.
"But it seems your progress is rather slow..."
"Could it be that after entering the human world, all he thinks about is eating and drinking all day long?"
Hearing Gu Yue's sarcasm, Na'er's face showed great displeasure.
Na'er had always been at odds with her own main soul.
"What do you know? My progress is much better than yours!" Na'er retorted.
"Is that so?" Gu Yue scoffed dismissively.
"Then why is there a human girl next to Ling Luo?"
"Don't tell me you haven't noticed the strange look in that human girl's eyes when she looks at Ling Luo, after being in the human world for so long?"
Na'er's face stiffened slightly when Gu Yue hit the nail on the head.
But she remained defiant:
"What do you know, you iceberg?"
"I have my own rhythm, and Ling Luo definitely has a lot of feelings for me right now!"
Na'er was extremely confident about this.
But Gu Yue mercilessly exposed her self-deception.
"Feelings for him?"
"It's probably true, but it's likely what people in the human world call a brother's affection for his sister."
Gu Yue stared intently at Na'er in front of her:
"You know, that's not the kind of feeling we need."
"What we need is for Ling Luo to fall completely in love with you, and to be willing to dedicate herself to the revival of our soul beast race because of you!"
"What's your situation right now?"
"I see no obedience from Ling Luo to you, nor do I see any sign that he has been conquered by you."
"But you, you've already subtly started to prioritize him. Na'er, you wouldn't actually think of yourself as Ling Luo's sister, would you?"
"You are a fragment of the Silver Dragon King's soul. Your mission from beginning to end is to cultivate your relationship and then take the lead!"
"But you disappointed me."
