Chen Xuan returned to the Farm as dusk settled in. The construction team had already left, and at that moment, the vast expanse of the Farm was only occupied by Jin Xiong and the Watermelon Demon.
In an open area, a pile of materials lay waiting. These were delivered earlier in the afternoon at Chen Xuan's request, intended for building a Chicken Coop, much like the Cattle Shed he had constructed before. With the help of the Watermelon Demon and Jin Xiong, the Chicken Coop was completed in just a few hours.
Chen Xuan unloaded thousands of Chick Chicks from the truck. As he opened the cages, the little creatures chirped excitedly and rushed into their new home. Several large bowls were already placed inside the Chicken Coop, filled with Holy Spirit Lake Water. The Chick Chicks quickly discovered the benefits of the water, flapping their delicate wings and eagerly competing for a drink from the bowls.
The Watermelon Demon stood at the entrance of the Chicken Coop with a bucket of water. Whenever he noticed that one of the bowls was empty, he hurriedly refilled it. After half an hour of this bustling activity, calm finally returned to the Chicken Coop.
Chen Xuan stood at the door watching until Jin Xiong came over from the adjacent Cattle Shed. He then spoke up, "I urgently need money and need these Chick Chicks to mature as quickly as possible. Can your powder help?"
Upon hearing this, Jin Xiong raised his eyebrows thoughtfully and shook his head slowly. "It's not suitable; it would result in fried chicken."
Chen Xuan chuckled at Jin Xiong's response, realizing that he had developed quite a sense of humor. If time weren't so pressing, Chen Xuan would have already expanded the Cattle Shed and shifted his focus to raising cattle on the Farm.
Now, it seemed he could only place his hopes on the Chick Chicks. Generally, under sufficient feed conditions, Chick Chicks could be artificially matured within four months. At that time, Chen Xuan would have a steady supply of Native Chicken Eggs and Native Chickens.
However, Chen Xuan couldn't wait four months; he only gave himself one month. With a sigh in his heart, he could only hope that Holy Spirit Lake Water would continue to exert its miraculous effects and help the Chick Chicks grow quickly!
Ten days passed in a flash.
Chen Xuan devoted all his thoughts to the Chick Chicks. Under his careful nurturing, the Chick Chicks grew at a rocket-like pace. In just ten days, they had shed their yellow fluff and started to resemble young chickens.
The Holy Spirit Lake Water did not disappoint Chen Xuan; it truly had remarkable benefits for all living things. At this rate, he would be able to harvest the first batch of Native Chicken Eggs by the end of the month.
However, Chen Xuan had also made a backup plan. If the eggs were delayed in production, he would catch Silver Fish and contact Zhou Shui for emergency sales. Yet, to Chen Xuan's surprise, Old Xin had not come by at all. This was unexpected.
Chen Xuan stroked his chin and gazed at the starry sky. According to what Old Xin had said before, this should have been the time when he visited most frequently. After all, even Chen Xuan himself could no longer resist after tasting the delicious Silver Fish just once. If he went a day without having a meal, he would feel uncomfortable all over. Could those celestial beings who had eaten Silver Fish endure such discomfort?
Chen Xuan called over Jin Xiong and curiously asked, "Why do you think there has never been any mention of this world in the Demon Realm or the Celestial Realm?"
Jin Xiong looked up at the stars, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes as he sighed, "I don't know either, but it is said that long ago, the Human Realm, Demon Realm, and Celestial Realm were interconnected. Back then, humans, demons, and immortals coexisted harmoniously; many immortals married mortals or demons."
"But I don't know when it changed," Jin Xiong continued with a sigh. "The three realms ended up like this, with demons and immortals caught in prolonged conflict. The battles were so fierce that I lost eighty of my wives."
Chen Xuan was taken aback and said, "Farewell!" He clasped his hands and turned to leave.
"Hey, wait!" Jin Xiong protested unhappily. "Don't forget what you promised me! I’ve already had those cows training for half a month!"
