He absolutely didn’t believe that the person in front of him was scared. Facing a pack of wind wolves, he had never shown fear—how could he possibly be afraid of his own kind?

He just couldn’t understand why he would do this.

Without answering, Henry Clark simply smiled and said, “Do you want to eat some python meat?”

“Of course! That thing nearly strangled me to death. If I get a chance to eat its meat, I’m definitely not letting it go. It’s just a pity that everyone can only get one serving, and you already ate mine…”

At this, a look of grievance appeared in his eyes again.

“Wait here…”

With a slight smile, Henry Clark picked up a brand new tray and strode over to the window where the python meat was being served. “Master, give me five servings!”

“The clan leader has ordered that each person can only get one serving. Young Master Henry Clark, you already got yours earlier…”

The cook shook his head.

In the clan, rules were paramount. Even the young clan leader was no exception.

Henry Clark: “I know, but it’s not for me. I’m getting it on behalf of Young Master Samuel Clark. If you don’t believe me, look—he’s sitting right where I was just now…”

As he spoke, he called out, “Cousin Samuel Clark!”

Then he waved at Samuel Clark and the others.

The cook was momentarily stunned and looked over to where he was waving. Sure enough, he saw Samuel Clark and his group, all smiling back at him after hearing the call.

Confirming that he was indeed getting food for someone else, the cook said no more and quickly served up five portions of python meat.

“Thank you…”

Henry Clark carried the tray back, picked up a piece of python meat with his chopsticks, and placed it in Edward Clark’s bowl. “Here’s yours back from earlier!”

With that, he didn’t say another word, grabbed the rest, and started wolfing it down.

“……”

Edward Clark watched his every move, staring at the python meat in his bowl, utterly speechless.

He deliberately gave up his seat, then went and got their food for them… What a sly dog!

But…

It actually felt pretty good…

Still, wasn’t Henry always really uptight before?

Why is he acting so out of character now…

As he was lost in thought, the other’s voice came to his ear, “If you don’t want to get scolded, eat up!”

Snapping back to reality, Edward Clark hurriedly gulped down the python meat. He had to admit—it was really delicious…

After quickly finishing their meal, the two left the cafeteria. As soon as they walked out, Samuel Clark and his group picked up their trays and headed to the python meat window.

“The tiger-striped green python, once grown, has the strength of a third-level martial artist. For cultivators, it’s a great supplement. I usually eat in my family’s private kitchen, but when I heard the main cafeteria had some today, I came all the way across half the clan just to try it with everyone…”

After explaining, Samuel Clark walked up with a smile. “Master, give us five servings of python meat.”

Cook: “Didn’t Young Master Henry Clark just get yours for you? I saw you didn’t object… One serving per person, there’s no more!”

“……”

Stunned, Samuel Clark immediately understood what had happened and why the other gave up his seat. He let out a furious roar: “Henry Clark…”

……

As for his anger, Henry Clark couldn’t care less. At that moment, he was rubbing his bulging belly, picking his teeth in satisfaction.

Honestly, python meat sounded scary, but it tasted amazing. The key thing was… the effect on extending his lifespan was just too good!

One serving added about five days. He’d eaten six servings… that was a full 30 days!

In other words, his lifespan had now reached 105 days.

Abundant.

Satisfied!

“With enough nutrition, I should be able to break through to the fifth level of martial artist…”

At this moment, all his previous weakness was gone. He felt his body brimming with strength, itching to start training at any moment.

He was just about to head back to his place to cultivate and try for a breakthrough to the fifth level, when suddenly, he froze again.

He saw on the Longevity Chart, a string of +0.01, +0.01, +0.01 floating by…

Henry Clark’s eyes widened in disbelief.

“Is this because of Samuel Clark? Could it be… that making someone angry can also increase my lifespan?”

Chapter 008: Sneaking a Bite

Very quickly, Henry Clark figured it out. It wasn’t that making people angry increased his lifespan—it was still… feeling happy!

The other kept causing trouble, and after venting his anger, he immediately felt refreshed and clear-headed. His mind was at ease, his stress relieved, and his digestion and absorption sped up…

Watching the numbers keep rising, Henry Clark was thoroughly satisfied.

It actually lasted even longer than laughing out loud…

Looks like messing with Samuel Clark from time to time isn’t a bad idea.

“Henry, are you going to the Martial Arts Hall tonight?”

Just then, Edward Clark looked over.

Henry Clark shook his head. “Forget it, I’ve got other things to do!”

Edward Clark was puzzled.

Usually, this cousin was the most diligent in training, but ever since yesterday, he’d been acting strange, almost like he was slacking off…

Henry Clark didn’t hide it. “Just finished eating, need to jog a few laps to digest, then soak my feet in hot water for a bit…”

“……”

Edward Clark was completely stunned.

No need to guess—he really is slacking off…

Thinking back to this afternoon, when he first saw him, his face had a slight yellowish tinge. After hesitating a moment, Edward Clark looked conflicted. “Henry, do you have some kind of secret illness? How about… we go see a doctor? I know one who’s highly skilled, charges fair prices, treats everyone equally, and most importantly, keeps his mouth shut—he’ll never tell anyone…”

“Get lost!”

Henry Clark was exasperated.

Mad, the bond is fading… This little brother is hopeless!
