— Underworld Palace —
In the Lord of Death's office, the skeletal-faced ruler hummed happily as he looked at the wooden box in front of him.
It was the same wooden box that Youqi had given to Yan Xuanjun. The Lord of Death had just received it from his third wife after she returned from the mortal world.
"Hahaha, I never thought I'd receive food as a souvenir from my lovely Xuanjun. I wonder how she managed to resist eating it all herself!" the Lord of Death said happily as he thought of his third wife.
Even though her body was weaker and not as strong as Yan Rongjun, her elder twin sister, she was quite a glutton herself.
The Lord of Death did not wait any longer. He could not help but look forward to this gift.
He gently opened the lid of the box.
The sweet, sharp, smoky fragrance of smoldering jade oak drifted into his bony nostrils as he inhaled the rich aroma.
The lid came off completely, but inside...
There were only three small pieces of Texas-style barbecue left.
