The Boss Behind The Game

It was the third day of Lu Wu’s beast form cultivation.

“Wu, here’s the super lovely cat food that I have prepared for you! Come and give it a try.”

The noise from the kitchen interrupted Lu Wu’s thoughts. At the same time, a strange smell that made Lu Wu feel his palpitation came from the kitchen.

Curiously, Lu Wu hopped down from the sofa and trotted toward the kitchen.

Lu Wu saw a plate of awful food with hot steam that was black-green in color. Besides, it was covered with a layer of brown cheese.

Immediately, he wagged his tail and prepared to escape.

While running, Lu Wu showed a desperate expression, Oh no, oh no, she is abusing me more and more now, these days are unbearable!

Lu Wu was even more upset when he was caught back to the dining table by Bei Li before he could run any further.

“Wu, this is a delicious meal that I have prepared especially for you, how could you not taste it?” Bei Li said in an angry tone while she petted the expressionless Lu Wu.

If you are such a good cook, why don’t you try it yourself first? What’s the fun in abusing me?

Lu Wu glanced at the cookbook labeled Cat Food Collection that was unfolded on the table. He first looked at the pictures of the delightful dishes in the cookbook, then he moved his sight to the steaming appalling meal. Lu Wu swore under his breath.

After that, Bei Li helped Lu Wu to wrap a triangular handkerchief around his neck, then she pointed at the food with anticipation, “Eat!”

Wait and see, I would spank you until you cry once I recover my original body.

At this moment, Lu Wu seriously doubted that Bei Li wanted him to cultivate the Dark Emperor Code deliberately.

However, beggars can’t be choosers, it was better for him to bend than to break. Lu Wu gave up opposing her. He stood in front of the food with a definite look and bowed down his prideful head gradually.

Once the food entered his mouth.

Ew…

Lu Wu bent his back involuntary and vomited all of the food from his mouth.

He had his share of bad food before this, but this was the first time he had such terrible food. The moment when the food melted in his mouth, went down to his stomach and contacted the gastric juice, his stomach started to jerk. His stomach sent signals to his brain, forcing him to spit it out.

Moreover, Lu Wu suspected that he would have died of food poisoning if he did not do so.

Bei Li was astonished when she watched Lu Wu’s fearful look, “It was tasty, wasn’t it?”

Don’t you have any freaking idea? Lu Wu did not have the strength to complain anymore.

Bah! Bah! Bah!

Lu Wu spat out all of the remaining liquid in his mouth, but it was still disgusting. He hopped down from the dining table and came beside the water bowl prepared by Bei Li to gargle.

It was so close! I almost lost my life, Lu Wu was suffering from PTSD.

The dense Bei Li noticed something after witnessing Lu Wu’s responses and she smiled embarrassingly. After that, she picked up some of it with a pair of chopsticks and put it into her mouth, puzzled, “Is it really that bad…”

“Bah!”

Lu Wu gloated when he saw Bei Li gargling continuously at the sink.

Deep in his heart, he felt good about it.

However, Lu Wu’s smile solidified quickly.

Once again, Bei Li spat the water out from her mouth. Her face was pale but she looked at Lu Wu with a firm look, “Wu, this was an accident, I will do better next time!”

The bad news came abruptly, causing the cat to get slightly caught off-guard. The secretly triumphant Lu Wu was petrified in a flash.

It seemed like the danger of food poisoning would still exist. Unconsciously, Lu Wu made a sorrowful expression.

Finally, Lu Wu had to rely on the Derived Spiritual Rice to assuage his hunger. However, the rice was not enough to fill him. In addition, according to Bei Li, a Level 5 spiritual material should not be consumed excessively. Or else, the soul energy would overload his body without being absorbed, and this would be harmful to his body.

Therefore, other than cultivating by consuming the Derived Spiritual Rice, one had to go through the high-intensity physical workout, too.

After explaining this to Lu Wu, Bei Li reached out for a cat teaser from her shopping bag.

Lu Wu was speechless.

Come on, you better kill me now, this life is too difficult to live, Lu Wu had lost all hope.

Becoming a kitty cat? That’s fine. But a cat teaser? Is this a workout? This is challenging my pride.

I am the King of Beiqi with a few million men following me, how could I lose my dignity like this!

All of a sudden, Bei Li approached him and lifted him up and put him on the digital scale in the living room. Then, she pointed at the figure on the scale and said, “You see, you got fatter again. The Derived Spiritual Rice would have a huge effect on you although it cannot make you full. And now, you are obese because you’ve eaten too much of it.”

Lu Wu stared at the figure with a poker face. He would rather die due to obesity than being tantalized by a cat teaser.

Bei Li was out of means. She even demonstrated a set of cat gymnastics herself, but Lu Wu was totally expressionless. In the end, Bei Li could only abandon this plan.

After that, Lu Wu found a corner to shrink quietly and begin to doubt his life.

Why did I want to cultivate, wasn’t it better for me to live as a human being?

Such a routine made him feel like he was really a pet cat.

After feeling miserable for a while, Lu Wu focused his mind and entered the game to numb himself, who was physically and mentally injured.

He was worried that he would take things too hard and run away from home.

Recently, the usually deserted Rocks seemed to come alive.

Waves after waves of players came here to chop down the trees. Moreover, they came in enormous crowds without end. Many Tree Demons fell into the hands of players and became the spiritual material to upgrade their ships.

Then, groups of player teams started to invade the North Rocks from the outside.

Along the journey, the players would greet each other cordially when they met,

“Hi, did you come to log? What a coincidence!”

“Hey, bro, we meet again! You are here again today! Good luck!”

“Bro, what level is your ship? Oh, Level 3? Then you might need to work harder.”

Within a few days, the crazy logging by the players had startled the Rock Ghost King, and he was furious.

From his point of view, he had treated the new forces in Beiqi well. He did not take action on them although they had occupied the Mansion of the Dead and Liuli District.

However, he never thought that the players would provoke him even though he didn’t do anything. In addition, they treacherously formed an enclosed circle around his domain. They intended to take his North Rocks away bit by bit.

Such an act had challenged the limits of the Rock Ghost King, and he could not bear it anymore.

Right now, he planned to counterattack. He would like to declare to the newcomers that he was the true owner of the North Rocks.
