Fantasy: Empress Wife, Cute Kids Cause Havoc in Jiuzhou-Chapter 229 - 227: What Harmful Thoughts Can a Mischievous Child Have?
"Okay!"
Chu Chen nodded, lifted the golden egg out, and placed it on the grilling rack before enhancing the fire’s temperature with the Divine Rune Power.
Although he couldn’t create fire with Divine Rune Power, he could amplify the fire, making its temperature even higher.
Such a hard golden egg definitely couldn’t be properly cooked with normal fire.
Hum!
Under the enhancement of Divine Rune Power, the flames blazed fervently. Even from a distance, the Thunder State cultivator could feel the scorching heat, and it wasn’t long before he was gasping with dryness and distancing himself.
Initially, Chu Xin had taken out a small chair to sit nearby, nibbling on grilled meat and enjoying the scene. Yet, upon realizing that the golden egg showed no changes even under the intense grilling, she too came up to the grill and added her Divine Rune Power to the fire.
The siblings jointly amplified the flame’s temperature with Divine Rune Power, and the sweltering heat spread throughout the Divine Coffin Space, making the entire area’s temperature surge drastically.
The Thunder State cultivator kept backing away, still feeling his skin burning and his throat smoking, his face filled with horror.

"What kind of energy are these two mischievous kids cultivating? There’s not a trace of True Qi fluctuation, nor the suppression of the Power of Laws or Rule Power, yet they possess such power. And what exactly is that golden egg? With such terrifying temperature, it still can’t be burned?"
His mind was overwhelmed with far too many questions and shocks.
After who knows how long, Chu Chen stopped and muttered to himself, "That should be cooked by now, right?"
"Let’s check and see."
Chu Xin, unable to wait any longer, reached for the golden egg, and the moment she touched it, her delicate brows involuntarily furrowed.
"The temperature of the golden egg seems unchanged."
She muttered to herself and took down the golden egg.
Chu Chen touched the golden egg, immediately feeling a bit dejected as he spoke gloomily, "It’s not cooked."
The golden egg, no matter how long it was grilled, remained at room temperature, making it impossible to cook.
"Can’t chop it open, can’t boil it properly, can’t cook it through, how are we supposed to eat this golden egg?"
Chu Xin stared blankly at the golden egg. She had a strong intuition that this egg would be extremely delicious. But now, she could only look and not eat, which made her quite reluctant.
Chu Chen shook his head and said, "No way around it, we’ll just have to keep it and ask Dad when we get back. He definitely has a way."
"Alright."
Chu Xin nodded, her big round eyes still filled with reluctance.
Boom!
Just then, another tremendous noise came from the sea surface.
Chu Chen looked up at the sea and mumbled, "Are they still fighting?"
But Chu Xin’s eyes suddenly brightened as she suggested, "Brother, do you think those bad guy Martial Emperors could break open this golden egg?"
"Bad guy Martial Emperors?"
Chu Chen paused for a moment and asked, "I don’t know, even if they could, they wouldn’t help us, right? They are the bad guys."

Chu Xin’s large round eyes blinked as she whispered, "Let’s send out two Battle Bodies later. Have your Battle Body prepare a Jade Bottle, a big bowl, or something. My Battle Body will use the golden egg to smash those bad guys, and they’ll surely attack the egg. Once the golden egg breaks, you’ll catch the egg fluid inside, and then we can finally eat it."
"Wow! Sister, you’re so clever."
Chu Chen’s eyes twinkled, looking at Chu Xin with admiration. She was incredibly smart to come up with such a good plan.
Makes you think reading really is beneficial. Should I also study hard in the future to be as clever as my sister?
This was the first time Chu Chen felt genuinely motivated to study hard, but thinking of the difficult characters and hard-to-remember words made his head spin.
Forget it, let’s drop it.
At that moment, sixteen Battle Bodies returned to the Divine Coffin, piling up the treasure they had found in the Divine Coffin Space.
Afterward, purple-haired Chu Xin and purple-haired Chu Chen left the Divine Coffin, heading towards the sea surface.
"First, let’s sort the treasures; it’s too messy."
Chu Xin sat down in front of the pile of treasures and said.
"Alright!"
Chu Chen also took out a small chair and sat beside her, checking and categorizing each treasure one by one. A happy smile was brimming on his face: this must have been the most fulfilling moment for a treasure collector.
Fourteen Battle Bodies also gathered around the treasures, busily sorting them into different categories.
"So many treasures."
The cultivator from Thunder State stared at the piles of treasures, his eyes wide open.
Among these, the treasures of the cultivators were almost all Holy Artifacts, likely left behind by the Martial Saints who came to covertly steal the Demon Flood Dragon stones before it broke through to the Eighth Rank.
Although that Thunder State cultivator also came from a major sect, and his sect’s Treasure Pavilion had more Magic Treasures than this, here they were all Holy Artifacts, and many were even Top Grade Holy Artifacts, far outnumbering those in his sect’s Treasure Pavilion.
Besides the cultivators’ Magic Treasures, there were also a large pile of Demon Flood Dragon stones and various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, all exquisite treasures.
That Thunder State cultivator swallowed his saliva greedily, his eyes roaming over the Demon Flood Dragon stones and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, unable to look away.
"Uncle, would you like some?"
Chu Xin noticed that Thunder State cultivator’s gaze and asked curiously.
"Yes! Ah, no, I don’t."
The Thunder State cultivator instinctively replied before realizing what he said, his complexion suddenly turning pale as he hurriedly waved his hands and shook his head, displaying his sheer panic.
It dawned on him that he was coveting their treasures—these were mischievous kids after all. If they struck him, he feared he would be reduced to mush.
Chu Xin said in a sweet, childlike tone, "Don’t be nervous, if you want one, I’ll give you one as a reward for showing us the way. Daddy said not to let someone help for nothing. By the way, what do you practice?"
"Sword!"
The Thunder State cultivator hesitated, then responded.
"A sword!"
Chu Xin rummaged through the pile of treasures for a moment, soon finding a fine Holy Sword. She threw it to the Thunder State cultivator, saying, "This sword is for you."
"Are you really giving it to me?"
The Thunder State cultivator caught the Holy Sword, still somewhat in disbelief.
"Of course!"
Chu Xin nodded her head. "It’s a pity you’re too weak now, too good of a Holy Sword you couldn’t handle anyway. You should make do with this one."
"Enough, it’s enough, more than enough. Thank you, young friend, thank you so much."
The Thunder State cultivator kept thanking her, his hands caressing the Holy Sword in his hands as if it were his beloved.
He was only a Martial Venerate, and naturally, in his sect, the Holy Artifacts were not for him to use; he only had a Venerable Level longsword personally forged for him, which was far inferior to any Holy Artifact.
This Holy Sword was just a Middle Grade Holy Artifact, but for him, it was already sufficient. As Chu Xin had said, a too-advanced Holy Artifact was beyond his current strength to utilize.
Moreover, many Martial Saint level Elders in his sect also used only Middle Grade Holy Artifacts. For him, a mere Martial Venerate, to own a Middle Grade Holy Artifact was something he had never dared to dream of before.
As he looked up at the two mischievous kids busily sorting the treasures, he thought to himself, "These two mischievous kids are actually quite nice. But then again, mischievous is all they are; they couldn’t harbor any ill intentions."
