368: Chapter 305 368: Chapter 305 Eryao seemed to be just a youth, but he had devoured several pounds of meat contained in these few large basins.
His speed was so fast that he swiftly finished all the meat and licked his fingers, still feeling unsatisfied.
Watching Eryao finish the meat, Green Ox looked utterly disappointed, not having been given a single piece.
Its face was the picture of despondence, drooling with envy just a moment ago, now visible on the floor of the space.
Eryao felt it was still not enough, not because he had a large appetite, but because he had grown.
His body was now as large as a real dragon, and its physical state directly affected his hunger and how much he ate.
Jiang Tang had just taken a sip of wine and was eating meat.
Of course, he could hear the conversations of the two pets in the space.
It wasn’t the first or second time Eryao bullied the ox.
Despite the bullying, Eryao would immediately rescue Green Ox if it was in danger.
For instance, Eryao had saved Jiang Tang’s life many times.
Although they were not connected by blood, sometimes Jiang Tang, who was like a father, felt a bit guilty.
It was Eryao who took care of his day-to-day life, ordering him around.
Jiang Tang would tolerate Eryao’s occasional haughty temper.
As for the interactions between the two pets, he turned a blind eye, not intervening unless necessary.
When Jiang Tang saw that Eryao had eaten all the meat without leaving any for Green Ox and was still asking for more, he didn’t make a fuss.
It was just meat, ordinary livestock meat from the Mortal Realm, cheap to buy outside.
In the Jiang Family, he wouldn’t hesitate to eat more.
The wine he gave away was much more expensive than the meat he requested.
Jiang Tang ordered a servant to prepare several dozen pounds of cooked meat for him.
There was a feast that day with guests, and they had prepared plenty, ensuring the guests would eat and drink their fill.
Chefs in the kitchen were continuously preparing dishes.
Grilled, stewed, and Teppanyaki dishes were all available in abundance.
As the Family Head of Jiang Family and Sect Leader of Saint Sect, he instructed the workers to bring him several dozen pounds of meat and provided him with a Storage Bag to make transporting the food easier, avoiding the inconvenience of bringing it plate by plate into the space.
The obedient worker took the Storage Bag and left.
The conversation Jiang Tang had with the worker, and his drinking, could be heard by everyone paying attention.
Those who knew about Jiang Tang’s pets figured the box of meat was definitely for the pets; those who didn’t thought he might save it for a time when he was hungry during seclusion.
This time, after the gathering where Jiang Tang brought out two urns of five-pound wine which were guzzled down by the guests, everyone found places to rest.
After the worker brought the Storage Bag, Jiang Tang took it, tossed the Storage Bag into the space, and told Eryao not to bully Green Ox anymore.
With several dozen pounds of meat, they could eat slowly.
With the extra meat, Eryao now generously gave some to Green Ox.
“Dumb ox, this meat was specifically cooked and sent over for us to eat at my behest.
You should be thanking me, you know?
You shouldn’t eat too much, or you’ll get very fat.
If you get fatter, your ox head will grow even bigger and dumber.”
“Moo moo.”
Green Ox nodded; it just wanted to taste the meat.
Eating as much meat as grass was not realistic because it did not wish to consume more meat from its own kind.
Green Ox selectively ate the lamb, not touching the beef from the meat Eryao gave it.
“Hey, you stupid ox, even being picky?
You have no idea that this beef is much tastier than the lamb.
Not bad at all.
If I slaughtered you for meat, it might taste even better.”
Green Ox rolled its eyes at Eryao’s words.
It would rather eat grass than meat from its own kind.
It was an ox from the space, not a wild beast that would eat its own kind; what would be the difference between it and a wild beast if it did?
Under the Jiang Family’s arrangement, Jiang Tang and the ten people he brought were accommodated in an unoccupied courtyard, though ‘unoccupied’ did not mean uninhabited.
Previously, Jiang Family members lived there, but they vacated it for the guests.
The courtyard had many rooms, allowing each person their own, complete with spaces for cultivation.
Jiang Tang entered one room, which was the largest in the courtyard.
The room’s furnishings were lavish.
Perhaps the previous occupant had luxury tastes, as all the decorative items in the room were exquisite.
Do people living in first-class families, besides cultivating, also indulge in antiquities?
This person knew how to enjoy life, not only savoring the wealth and prestige of the family but also making the most of a cultivator’s power and resources.
Jiang Tang observed his room, not knowing that this courtyard was not for women, but for the eldest son of the Jiang Family Head.
The son of the Jiang Family Head was also practicing in the Sects.
Before becoming a Disciple, he enjoyed life.
As the eldest son destined to inherit the Family Head’s position, he had no choice but to go out and learn advanced Cultivation Techniques.
It didn’t stop him from collecting collectibles using his resources while outside.
The antiques and paintings from the Mortal World were not very valuable but allowed him to feel delighted, just by placing them in a room to admire.
If someone else stayed in his courtyard and used his room, he would definitely be displeased, but who was Jiang Tang?
This was his idol!
He was ecstatic that his idol could sleep in his bed and stay in his room, and he wouldn’t mind even if his possessions were occupied permanently.
Just because these were items used by his idol, he would feel even happier looking at them thereafter.
This young member of the Jiang Family knew that Jiang Tang wouldn’t stay here forever.
After all, he was the future son-in-law coveted by numerous women from the Top Ten Clans.
