Chapter 18 I’ll Eat Until It Hurts!

The table before them was covered in almost two layers of plates of various sizes, and the waiters continued to bring over more dishes.
“Are you sure you’re able to eat it all?” Qin Lingyan gnashed her teeth to the point they emitted cracking sounds because after this table of food was eaten, she would be unable to eat properly for an entire month.
“Don’t worry, Senior Sister. I won’t waste a thing; otherwise, I’ll pay for the food!” Bai Xiaofei rubbed his hands together then pushed up his sleeves. Just before he began to eat, however, the nearby Huskie suddenly barked.
“No, do you think I’m an idiot? I’ve allowed you to eat freely, so how can I compete with you?” Bai Xiaofei fiercely rolled his eyes at Huskie then officially entered the battle.
After that, Bai Ye and Qin Lingyan witnessed a great whirlwind sweep everything away!
One plate, two plates, three plates……
No matter what the plates contained, Bai Xiaofei casually pulled the food over before sweeping through it. And most terrifying, he was still able to give a suitable evaluation after finishing each dish under this sort of speed!
In the blink of an eye, an “empty space” had been cleared out before Bai Xiaofei.
He, however, wasn’t the most ruthless – the most ruthless was Huskie, who Qin Lingyan thought was just an accessory. If Qin Lingyan was given a chance to do it all over again, she would surely not think Huskie was only just a dog.
It isn’t a f*cking dog!
It’s obviously an elephant, alright!!!
Huskie didn’t seem very big, but he was like a bottomless abyss and ate more than two times faster than Bai Xiaofei!
Moreover, based on his excited appearance, he seemed to have just entered into the zone……
“Eh, why aren’t the two of you eating?” As he patted his belly and burped, Bai Xiaofei finally recalled that there were still another two people at the table. His mouth was shining with oil. “Oh, oh, I’m sorry. I unintentionally finished everything.”
Looking at the empty plates covering the entire table, Bai Xiaofei slapped himself on the head and revealed an embarrassed smile.
At this moment, Bai Ye was completely dumbstruck, and Qin Lingyan, who ought to be furious, didn’t even know what sort of expression she should use to face everything before her eyes.
But both of them had a common thought – They’ve finally finished eating!
Unfortunately, this thought didn’t represent reality……
“It’s fine, it’s fine. This is only the first table full of food, and there’s still more to come, so neither of you will stay hungry.” As soon as Bai Xiaofei spoke these words, Qin Lingyan and Bai Ye revealed terrified expressions.
“There’s more?!!!” they exclaimed at the same time, and disbelief was inadequate to describe their current facial expressions.
“Right. I asked for four rounds of the previous dishes. We can just order more if it isn’t enough,” Bai Xiaofei said in an extremely carefree manner, but Qin Lingyan and Bai Ye were both horrified when they heard it.
Moreover, Bai Ye finally understood why Bai Xiaofei had asked what he had in the beginning: Four rounds of the same dishes, Qin Lingyan really might not have enough money……
“Bai Xiaofei!!!”
Bang!
Qin Lingyan struck the table so hard that it trembled, and she directly stood up. But before she could fly off the handle, Bai Xiaofei seized the opportunity to speak a step before her.
“Senior Sister, don’t worry. Just speak frankly if you don’t have enough money, and I’ll cancel the next few rounds. I’m a very considerate person and won’t make things difficult for you, Senior Sister.” Just like this, Qin Lingyan’s words were forcefully pressed back in.
Bai Ye, who was sitting at Bai Xiaofei’s side, felt worried for Bai Xiaofei’s future.
This enmity can be said to have been sowed today, and there seems to be no need to imagine the miserable consequences of a new student sowing enmity with a popular senior sister like Qin Lingyan.
Is this what he meant when he said “being despicable until the end”? This is……
Really f*cking despicable!!!
As he thought this, Bai Ye played the role of a full-time spectator with extreme seriousness.
“Waiter! Give me another two rounds of the same dishes!!!” Qin Lingyan’s voice was loud to the point she completely lost her usual image, and she seemed to have entirely entered into a fight with Bai Xiaofei.
“Today, you’ll either die from being too full or you’ll make me poor! Otherwise, don’t hope of walking out of the Hundred Flavor House’s door!” Qin Lingyan glared fiercely at Bai Xiaofei and spoke her innermost thoughts without concealing them.
“Senior Sister, why torture yourself by doing this?” Bai Xiaofei frowned slightly, and a trace of difficulty seemed to have appeared on his face.
“There’s nothing torturous about it. Just eat your food!” Qin Lingyan sat down once more, and she finally found a trace of the feeling of victory. But, unfortunately, this sort of feeling didn’t last long.
“Waiter, add two more rounds,” Bai Xiaofei said just as Qin Lingyan sat down, causing her to feel as if she had made the wrong decision. “Huskie, didn’t you want to compete with me earlier and see who could eat more?” As he spoke, a unique fluctuation gushed out from within Bai Xiaofei’s body.
When Huskie, who was resting between battles, heard this, he hurriedly shook his head like a rattle-drum, and his whining seemed to repeat the words Bai Xiaofei had previously told him.
Wouldn’t I be giving away my dog food if I compete with you when you’re in your current state?!
It was precisely within the few breaths of time Huskie spent whining wildly that Bai Xiaofei’s stomach, which had bulged up from eating, began to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye. Moreover, Bai Xiaofei seemed to grow increasingly spirited as his stomach shrank.
When he was with Old Man Revelation, Bai Xiaofei had actually not told him everything about himself.
His inability to control his origin energy was true, but Bai Xiaofei had never stopped utilizing puppets. His special ability to utilize puppets without origin energy came from his fourth father!
The Heaven Devouring Dog, Tu Bujin!
There were probably very few people on the continent who knew the nickname Heaven Devouring Dog, but his secret technique had always been passed down on the continent in the form of a legend.
The technique, World Devourer, was capable of storing energy within the body through ceaseless eating. This energy could be used to replace the daily consumption of food or it could be used as a replacement for origin energy. But its effects were slightly inferior to real origin energy.
It was precisely by relying on this secret technique that Tu Bujin had created the record of being pursued for three months without sleep and rest as he ceaselessly counter-killed his pursuers.
Now, Bai Xiaofei utilized the technique here……
Time slowly flowed by, bit by bit. It was the first and last time Qin Lingyan felt that watching another eat was actually so tormenting.
The instant Bai Xiaofei stopped eating completely, Qin Lingyan felt a feeling of escape that didn’t suit the current situation. And it wasn’t just her; even Bai Ye broke out in cold sweat for Qin Lingyan.
“Senior Sister, let’s stop here today. I can’t make you stay behind and sell your body, right?”
This time, Qin Lingyan disregarded Bai Xiaofei’s words. She believed that so long as she retorted, he would surely order another two rounds, and she would be unable to pay for those two rounds no matter what……
Bai Xiaofei, who had eaten to his satisfaction, wiped his mouth then snapped his fingers at Huskie.
“Let’s go, Huskie!”
As Qin Lingyan looked at the figures of the dog and the man leaving, she suddenly recalled the words Bai Xiaofei had said earlier.
I’ll eat until it hurts and make you remember me……
