Protect Our Clan Leader

"Roar!!"

Suddenly, the Golden Mane Lion in the field let out a roar, having been flipped over by Wang Li effortlessly and pinned to the ground, unable to get up.

"I win." Wang Li pressed the Golden Mane Lion firmly, a gleeful smile appearing on her honest and innocent face, "Brother Mao Mao, as per our prior agreement, that Spirit Yak is mine."

Jin Mao Mao, the Golden Mane Lion, struggled several times but couldn't break free. Resigned, he conceded, "A bet is a bet. You can take it."

"Hehe~ Thank you."

Wang Li released him, and happily called Wang Ying Xuan and the others to help drag away the fat Spirit Yak, bound tightly nearby.

The group of young disciples burst into cheers and followed ardently, each one of them brimming with excitement.

Jin Mao Mao turned his head in sorrow, unwilling to face the scene.

This Spirit Yak was the highest-grade one he obtained this time, and the only Level Seven Spirit Yak.

He had labored hard to herd cows, horses, and sheep to exchange for these tribute Spirit Yaks; was it easy for him?

How could he be so shortsighted to agree to a bet with this disaster Wang Li? This girl is simply monstrous; despite being human, how can her strength surpass his, a Fierce Beast? Truly abnormal!

He shouldn't have agreed to lower his cultivation base to the same level as hers.

Jin Mao Mao was heartbroken to the point of breathlessness, the entire lion almost plunged into self-pity.

A group of lionesses saw this and gathered to lick his fur, gently comforting him.

Meanwhile, as Jin Mao Mao lamented the loss of his feed, Wang Li had already led a group of young disciples to a good spot and began to eviscerate the Spirit Yak.

The body of a Level Seven Spirit Yak was enormous. Raised in a controlled environment with exceptional breeding and special techniques inhibiting the growth of spiritual intelligence, its meat was far richer than that of wild Spirit Yaks, weighing at least hundreds of thousands of pounds.

The little disciples from the Devour Heaven Sacred Land worked with clear division of labor, quickly dismantling the entire Spirit Yak. Skin in one pile, blood in another, bones in a third, and viscera separate, all arrangements were made into several heaps.

The Spirit Yak had tough skin and coarse meat; its skin could be directly used as refining material, though it was a bit too tough to eat, yet the rest of its body could be made into various delicacies.

As disciples of the Devour Heaven Sacred Land, they might not excel in everything, but when it came to food, they were indeed experts. Especially adept at dismantling Fierce Beasts, their craftsmanship was exquisite, speed was swift, equating to a master butcher.

Wang Li pulled out a small notebook from her bosom and began packing the yak meat in specially made ice crystal boxes, checking off each package in her notebook.

Soon, there was a heap of ice crystal boxes beside her.

Zhang Huaibing watched curiously, approaching to ask, "Sister Wang, what are you doing?"

For the last few years, he's been coming over to spar with Wang Li and Wang Ying Xuan, losing countless ingredients in this process, yet ended up getting familiar with them without realizing.

"Don't talk to me, I'm doing accounts." Wang Li focused intensely on her notebook, showing an expression of extreme seriousness, unable to spare attention to Zhang Huaibing's curiosity.

"Don't bother Aunt Wang; come chop bones with me." Wang Ying Xuan noticed and quickly dragged Zhang Huaibing away, explaining in the process, "All this Spirit Yak meat is to be transported back to Dongqian, for those seniors who took care of Aunt Wang. Back then, when she was little, Yunyang Senior Brother couldn't afford to raise her, so he'd take her to freeload at friends' homes, sometimes for years. You know how big Aunt Wang's appetite is..."

Wang Ying Xuan gave Zhang Huaibing a look, letting him comprehend it himself.

"I see." Zhang Huaibing nodded, his face full of shared empathy, "That must have been tough for them too."

In the span of their conversation, the Spirit Yak had nearly been entirely disassembled.

The group then set up a campfire and began roasting the meat right there in the open wilderness, filled with lively excitement.

Amidst the "sizzle" of roasting meat, soon the domineering aroma of the barbecue spread across the big grassland, attracting even the distant pride of lions, whose mouths began to water.

However, the young disciples didn't immediately start eating, instead frequently looking towards Wang Li, obviously waiting for her.

Eventually, Wang Li wrapped up the preparations of the package deliveries. Noticing the situation, she sat beside the fire and called out to the young disciples from the Devour Heaven Sacred Land, "Come on, everyone, don't stand on ceremony, dig in."

The young disciples were just waiting for her to join, and seeing the cue, they eagerly crowded around, enthusiastically presenting pieces of roasted meat into Wang Li's plate.

"Aunt, here's the rib I grilled for you. Try it."

"Sister, try this one I made for you."

"Aunt, their skills don't compare to mine, you should try mine first..."

"Aunt, this is your favorite grilled brisket..."

In the blink of an eye, Wang Li's plate was heaped with slices of roasted beef, some wobbling precariously on the edge, nearly about to fall off.

Even Wang Li, who was usually carefree, found it hard to handle their enthusiasm, hastily saying, "Don't mind me; let's all eat together."
