As the dishes were all served, the Ice Snow Goddess looked at the food in front of her with a lost expression, holding her cutlery.
She could only watch Xiao Mo eat and learn from him.
Her appearance was quite similar to Lin Daiyu's first time entering the Jia Mansion, observing how the other young ladies ate together.
It looked somewhat amusing.
Xiao Mo introduced, "All these dishes are very delicious, I hope the Ice Snow Goddess likes them."
The Ice Snow Goddess nodded, and after eating for a while, she praised,
"Thank you for the king's hospitality, the food is very tasty."
She hesitated, then continued,
"Your Majesty, ever since I attained godhood, I have never eaten human food again. It must have been hundreds of thousands of years ago."
"Ah?" Xiao Mo's expression was a bit surprised, and he suddenly remembered that gods did not need to eat.
Because after attaining godhood, they could sustain their bodies by absorbing divine power from heaven and earth.
Eating was something only mortals who had not yet become gods needed to do.
Actually, Xiao Mo no longer needed to eat either, but he had not given up his habit of three meals a day.
"Some things can be abandoned to become a god, but some things I feel are not necessary, such as the pleasure of eating. Although eating has no meaning for us, one can gain extreme happiness through enjoying delicious food."
The Ice Snow Goddess looked as if she were deep in thought.
She smiled and nodded, "Your Majesty is a very open-minded person. Hearing your words, I also feel quite enlightened."
However, whether she truly gained enlightenment in the end, only she knew.
Xiao Mo did not care at all, as he felt it was not his business and had nothing to do with him. He was merely expressing his own thoughts.
What others thought was none of his concern.
The Ice Snow Goddess, who was eating, suddenly paused and let out a small gasp, staring at Xiao Mo with wide eyes.
"Good heavens, Your Majesty the King has already advanced from the mid-stage of God King to the peak of God King, and is about to break through to the God Lord realm!"
She was shocked by Xiao Mo's sudden advancement.
Didn't she remember that just a while ago, Xiao Mo was only a mid-stage God King?
How could he have suddenly become a peak God King?
What had happened in these past few days? Why had Xiao Mo broken through so quickly?
He was breaking through at an inhuman speed!
Ever since Xiao Mo broke through that day, he had been subjected to such astonished gazes every day.
He was immune to the Ice Snow Goddess's words and simply smiled.
"Yes, I've been lucky recently and suddenly leveled up. It's no big deal. It's still a long way to the God Lord level."
No big deal!?
The Ice Snow Goddess could barely hold her fork. From mid-stage God King to peak God King in just a few days!
Did this person not know what that meant?
It was truly terrifying. Just a few days ago, this person still had a slight gap in strength compared to her.
But today, upon seeing her again, he was already stronger than her.
How could this not shock and frighten her?
Yet Xiao Mo remained calm and composed, even saying he was aiming for the God Lord position.
He spoke as if it were a game.
During the rest of the meal, the Ice Snow Queen felt uneasy, constantly thinking about this matter.
She almost fed the food into her nostrils.
After the meal concluded, the Ice Snow Goddess, without any hesitation, went straight to the point.
"Your Majesty, have you gathered the items I need?"
Xiao Mo knew she was referring to the troop evolution blueprints and said,
"Of course, I have prepared them long ago, waiting for the Ice Snow Goddess to collect them."
With a wave of his hand, he produced all the troop blueprints he had collected.
There were about 100,000 pieces.
"According to our agreement, most of the purified troop blueprints are here. However, I am very sorry, the ultimate version of the troop blueprint is extremely difficult to obtain and was not collected."
"Therefore, I apologize that I did not obtain all the blueprints this time. Please forgive me, Ice Snow Goddess."
Although the Ice Snow Goddess regretted that Xiao Mo had not found the ultimate blueprint, she also knew that ultimate troop blueprints were extremely rare.
Xiao Mo must have done his best, and she couldn't be too demanding.
Moreover, the Ice Snow Goddess was already very grateful that Xiao Mo was willing to help her find the troop blueprints.
She smiled and said,
"It's alright, I am already very grateful to Your Majesty. I am very thankful that you were able to find these things."
Xiao Mo smiled faintly, his gaze lingering on the Ice Snow Goddess's enchanting figure, leisurely scrutinizing her.
The meaning conveyed by his gaze was self-evident.
He said, "There are simply too few gods who can drop ultimate troop blueprints. Perhaps only those of your level have a chance..."
His words were filled with a sense of conquest.
But under his scorching gaze, the Ice Snow Goddess felt uneasy.
She shifted uncomfortably, not daring to look up at Xiao Mo.
She understood what Xiao Mo meant, which was why she felt so awkward and at a loss.
In fact, if Xiao Mo had not said those words before looking at her,
She might have thought Xiao Mo was lusting after her body.
But after he spoke, she understood.
Xiao Mo saw her as a god who could drop ultimate troop blueprints.
For a moment, she almost lost her smile.
Xiao Mo looked at the Ice Snow Goddess without restraint and said with a smile,
"Ice Snow Goddess, you don't need to thank me. We agreed on this long ago. How could I go back on my word?"
The Ice Snow Goddess forced herself to calm down, believing that Xiao Mo definitely didn't mean anything by it and she was just overthinking things.
She tapped the evolution troop blueprints in her hand and gave a quote.
"Your Majesty, the Lord of the Immortal-Demon Empire, you have given me a total of 120,000 evolution troop blueprints. How about I give you 10 billion异晶 (Yi Jing)?"
Xiao Mo naturally wouldn't refuse. It had only taken him a trivial amount of effort to find over a hundred thousand evolution troop blueprints.
However, the price the Ice Snow Goddess offered him far exceeded the value of these hundred thousand-plus purified troop blueprints by hundreds of times.
It directly gave him an unimaginable profit. How could he refuse?
Now, he only hoped that there would be as many such tasks as possible.
Seeing Xiao Mo's visibly pleased demeanor, the Ice Snow Goddess knew that he would be very satisfied with her price.
Thus, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
