Chapter 131: Dishes That Are Hard to Swallow

~9 min read 1,609 words

At night, the moon hung high in the sky, and from time to time a light breeze blew, causing the leaves to sway gently!

To be honest, Jerry had truly underestimated these Soul Guidance Master students; in a single afternoon, they had produced a full 277 Stove Soul Guidance Devices—their potential was limitless. When Jerry left, these students even saw him off together, looking forward to Jerry coming again next time.

So, Jerry was very happy upon returning home. Since everyone happened to be there today, Jerry decided to cook personally and make a delicious meal for everyone.

Tables, chairs, ambient lights, a grill, a stove, and various kitchen utensils were taken out from Jerry's ring one by one.

It must be said, Jerry's Soul Guidance Ring now contained everything; items for clothing, food, housing, and transportation were all fully stocked. Jerry couldn't help but think that if this Soul Guidance Ring were taken to the modern world, it would definitely be loved by those who enjoy camping and traveling.

Soon, one exquisite dish after another was finished. Jerry's culinary skills were much better than before; relying on Jerry's powerful Divine Sense, whether it was controlling the heat or knife work, everything had basically reached a state of perfection.

The kitchen utensils Jerry used now were not the ones Tang San had forged before; this set of utensils was entirely crafted from high-end materials, and some were even Soul Guidance Devices, making things much more convenient!

Previously, Jerry's knife work was average, cutting radishes into pieces that were thick on one side and thin on the other, but now, Jerry used Blade Manipulation to cut vegetables, controlling them precisely so that every slice was the same thickness.

Jerry had tested the white radish slices he cut; when placed on a book, one could truly see the words on the book very clearly.

Various carvings of dragons and Phoenixes were now truly a piece of cake.

The senior and junior sisters were all very happy watching Jerry serve one exquisite dish after another, but as Xiao Wu opened the lid first, they didn't seem quite as happy anymore!

"Alright, let's dig in! Hurry and open them to see; I have carefully prepared dishes for each of you!" Jerry asked.

"Brother, you've made it hard for me to take a bite. You carved these radishes into Bone-Entangling Rabbit, even carving out the fur, and there's even a 'me' next to it, hugging a little rabbit. How can I bring myself to eat this!" Xiao Wu complained.

"Yours is still fine; I don't even know how to use my chopsticks on this dish of mine. Look, a Begonia Tree, and the little person under it is me, leaning against the trunk, looking up—this is a painting, how am I supposed to eat it?" Lingling said.

"Haha, Zhuqing's is even funnier; it's Zhuqing sitting on a throne, holding a Nether Civet in her arms!" Ning Rongrong said.

"Rongrong, hurry and open it to see what dish is in front of you!" Zhuqing said.

"Okay!" After saying that, Ning Rongrong opened the dish covered in front of her, only to see a Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda standing on a patch of grass, and sitting on the grass was a little girl—it was Ning Rongrong—holding a book in her hands and reading.

"Hahahaha! I knew it!" Xiao Wu said with a laugh.

"Renxue's hasn't been opened yet, hurry and let us see!" Lingling was a bit impatient to see what Qian Renxue's dish was.

As the dish in front of Qian Renxue revealed its true colors, damn, if the person sitting on it didn't have Qian Renxue's face, it would be Queen Keisha through and through.

This made it impossible for anyone to take a bite.

"Jerry!"

"What's wrong? These are dishes I carefully made according to your tastes! Hurry and try them!" Jerry said.

"You did this on purpose, didn't you!" Xiao Wu said.

"How could I? Isn't it very unique!"

"Unique my foot! What are you eating yourself? Hurry and show us!" After Xiao Wu finished speaking, she crawled over to snatch the dish in front of Jerry.

As Xiao Wu opened the lid, inside was just a plain bowl of beef ramen.

"This, I just suddenly wanted to eat noodles! So I made a bowl! Everyone hurry and eat, stop looking!" Jerry said awkwardly.

"I want to eat these noodles of yours; I can't bring myself to eat the dishes!" After Xiao Wu finished speaking, she snatched the noodles away directly.

"Ah! Xiao Wu, don't snatch, there's more in the pot!" Jerry said.

"There's more in the pot!" Upon hearing this, the others hurriedly ran to the pot to scoop noodles, and by the time Jerry was ready to scoop another bowl, there was nothing left in the pot!

"These noodles are not bad, the taste is very fresh and delicious!"

"Indeed, it's been a long time since I've had noodles!"

"Not bad, it tastes even better than what the imperial chefs in the palace make!"

"I can still eat another bowl; the recent training in the Gravity Chamber has consumed a lot!"

Watching the few people in front of him eating with such relish, Jerry could only silently go and pull another bowl of noodles for himself.

After the few of them finished the noodles, the dishes on the table hadn't been touched at all.

"I went through all the trouble to make these dishes for you, and you didn't take a single bite; isn't this a waste?" Jerry said.

"Who told you to make the dishes look like this? How are we supposed to take a bite? It feels like we're eating ourselves!"

"Exactly, Jerry must have done it on purpose!"

"I want to freeze it and keep it as a collection!"

"Good idea!"

"This is my creative cuisine; the taste is very good, it's a pity you don't have the fortune to enjoy it! Hahaha," Jerry said. He had originally just wanted to play a prank, never expecting that they wouldn't dare to eat it.

"Jerry!" Suddenly, someone shouted Jerry's name loudly.

"It's Master!"

Oh no, he had forgotten about this. By the time Jerry reacted, Chrysanthemum Douluo had already flown to Jerry's side and, without a word, reached out and grabbed Jerry's ear.

"Still running, huh! Why aren't you running anymore!" Chrysanthemum Douluo said.

"Master, I really didn't do anything!" Jerry feigned ignorance.

"Didn't do anything? Before you left, you threw a project proposal at me and even claimed it was ordered by the Great Elder! Try ordering me around again! I've never seen a disciple as treacherous as you, arranging a pile of work for your own master and using the Great Elder to pressure me, right? I'll show you for using the Great Elder to pressure me!" After speaking, he directly twisted Jerry's ear in a circle.

"Master, I was wrong! I was wrong! Please let go!" Jerry yelled.

The others nearby watched and couldn't help but laugh out loud; not one of them came up to help or say a word of persuasion.

"And today, you ran to the academy to mess with my students. The homework I assigned in the morning wasn't done, and when I asked, it was because you went there in the afternoon and told them to make Soul Guidance Devices—and Soul Guidance Devices for ordinary people at that. They worked all afternoon; do you think my students are free labor?"

"Master, I did this for their own good. Isn't this providing them with materials for free and improving their hands-on ability? Master, you should thank me!"

"Thank you? I just went to the Household Soul Guidance Device Specialty Store; the main product for this period is the Soul Guidance Device that ordinary people can use. They made them in the afternoon, and they were on the shelves for sale by the evening! My silly students were actually working for you for free!"

"Master, look, I provided the materials for them to use, they made them, and I went to sell them—isn't that killing two birds with one stone?"

"Killing two birds with one stone! I'll show you killing two birds with one stone!" After speaking, Chrysanthemum Douluo pinched Jerry's ear twice more before letting go.

Jerry was now clutching his ear, looking as aggrieved as a little lamb.

"Tomorrow, Lingling, Xiao Wu, and Zhuqing will start learning to make Soul Guidance Devices; Renxue and Rongrong will continue their Cultivation!" Chrysanthemum Douluo said.

"Master! I want to learn how to make Soul Guidance Devices too," Ning Rongrong said.

"You can't; your cultivation is too low, and your Spirit Power isn't enough! Lingling, Xiao Wu, and Zhuqing will soon reach Spirit Douluo, and their speed of Cultivation will slow down in the future! So they can learn to make Soul Guidance Devices!" Chrysanthemum Douluo said.

It is indeed true that for many Spirit Masters, once they reach the Soul Saint realm, their speed slows down; it is already quite good if they can increase by one level a year, and for Lingling, Xiao Wu, and Zhuqing, even though their talent is excellent, it will also decrease significantly once they reach the Spirit Douluo realm.

Jerry thought of Sea God Island, where participating in the God Trial causes soul power to soar rapidly, reaching Title Douluo in just a few years, but Jerry always felt that this kind of improvement had no benefits; it was not obtained through one's own Cultivation, and forced advancement would only affect one's foundation.
