Chapter 1207
"Braised Lion's Head."
"Braised Lion's Head? Good name. Why don't we eat this today?"
Xu Jie and the others looked at Li Zhengqing and the five, who were eating with mouths full of grease, and felt envious, jealous, and hateful.
They wanted to eat it too, but they had to endure it for now; after all, they also really wanted that Demon Emperor's thigh.
Such top-tier ingredients, paired with Junior Brother Changqing's top-tier skills—just thinking about it made one drool.
Not long after, a full large basin of Braised Lion's Head was swept clean by Li Zhengqing and the five.
These weren't judges; they were here to feast.
Even at the end, when the plate was licked clean, the five still looked like they hadn't had enough.
Delicious, truly delicious. No matter how much they ate, it wasn't enough.
"Um, seniors, can the result be announced now?"
At this time, Elder Li spoke gloomily. Hearing this, Li Zhengqing said without hesitation.
"Isn't the result obvious? There is no comparison between the two."
Although Nie Yuan's skills were not bad, compared to Ye Changqing, they were clearly on a different level.
Therefore, Li Zhengqing chose Ye Changqing without hesitation.
An expected result. Hearing Li Zhengqing's words, Tang Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief. They had won.
And Nie Yuan, facing such a result, said with unwillingness.
"Impossible. He is just a greenhorn; how could he win against me? I don't accept this."
Nie Yuan truly didn't accept it. He didn't believe he would lose to Ye Changqing.
However, as his words came out, a Great Saint pressure suddenly rushed toward him, and Li Zhengqing's expression also became ugly.
"Are you questioning me?"
As the third elder of the Yunluo Holy Land, with a Great Saint Realm perfection cultivation base, looking across the entire Central Continent, he was a giant who had carved out a great reputation.
Being questioned by Nie Yuan made Li Zhengqing unhappy.
For Nie Yuan to dare to question a Holy Land elder, that was a capital crime.
Suppressed tightly by Li Zhengqing's powerful pressure, Nie Yuan gritted his teeth.
"Is there any need for dispute regarding the outcome of this battle? Your dish and Ye Changqing's simply cannot be compared."
"I..."
"If you dare to question the majesty of the Holy Land again, never mind you, your entire Nie family will be buried with you."
The threat in his words was self-evident, and hearing this, Nie Yuan didn't dare to say anything more.
If the Yunluo Holy Land wanted to destroy their Nie family, it would be no different from pinching an ant to death.
Moreover, no one could protect them at that time; even if the Spirit Chef Alliance came forward, they couldn't do it.
Unless the other two Holy Lands could perhaps stop the Yunluo Holy Land.
But why would they offend the Yunluo Holy Land for a small spirit chef family? That was clearly impossible.
He could only grit his teeth and admit defeat.
Seeing that Nie Yuan stopped speaking, Li Zhengqing also withdrew his pressure, and this spirit chef competition ended with Ye Changqing's victory.
As the result was released, Xu Jie couldn't wait to step forward and demand that Demon Emperor's thigh.
"Since you lost, shouldn't you fulfill the previous stake?"
"You..."
Hearing this, Nie Yuan gritted his teeth in anger, but Xu Jie didn't indulge him at all.
"What, do you want to renege on the debt?"
Nie Yuan was naturally reluctant to part with that Demon Emperor's thigh; it had almost become a symbol of their Nie family.
Many cultivators in the Central Continent, when mentioning their Nie family, would first think of the fact that the Nie family had a Demon Emperor's thigh.
Once lost, the Nie family's reputation would suffer a severe blow.
Seeing Nie Yuan's posture of wanting to go back on his word.
"I can use other things to replace it."
Xu Jie laughed in anger. Damn it, this old thing still wanted to renege? Fine, very fine.
Without a word of nonsense, Nie Yuan directly took out a sound transmission talisman, and then the figures of Qi Xiong, Hong Zun, Yu Mo, and others instantly appeared in the courtyard.
Looking at so many Great Saint powerhouses who appeared suddenly, Nie Yuan's expression sank, and after Xu Jie explained the course of events.
"Sect Master, Master, this is Demon Emperor-grade ingredient, and this old thing wants to renege on the debt after losing."
"Don't worry, he won't be able to renege."
Hearing that it was actually Demon Emperor-grade ingredient, Qi Xiong praised Xu Jie with full approval. Good kid, you got something good.
As for the problem of reneging on the debt, Qi Xiong didn't worry at all. If the Nie family didn't give it, they would just go and take it themselves.
Watching Qi Xiong and his group walk toward him, facing so many Great Saint powerhouses, Nie Yuan said nervously.
"You... what do you want to do?"
"We don't want to do anything. Willing to bet and willing to lose—that's a principle even a three-year-old child knows."
"My Nie family is willing to use other things to exchange."
"We want that Demon Emperor's thigh."
Qi Xiong and the others didn't care about other things at all.
The expression in his eyes had become unkind. Facing the pressure from Qi Xiong and the others, Nie Yuan felt a tightness in his heart and could only look at Li Zhengqing and the five.
At the moment, only the Yunluo Holy Land had the qualifications to intervene.
However, Li Zhengqing and the five had no intention of taking action at all. Even, upon hearing about that Demon Emperor's thigh, the five of them couldn't help but drool.
Such good ingredients, if Ye Changqing were to cook them personally, the taste... tsk tsk...
Moreover, this matter was justified on the side of the Profound Heaven Sect.
Both sides agreed to the competition, and the stakes were also brought out voluntarily by your Nie family. Now that you have lost and want to renege, that clearly doesn't make sense.
Therefore, facing Nie Yuan's gaze, Li Zhengqing spoke directly.
"Sect Master Qi is right. Willing to bet and willing to lose—that's a principle even a three-year-old child knows. Both of you competed voluntarily, and since the stakes have been confirmed, now that you have lost, you naturally have to fulfill them."
It was over. Hearing Li Zhengqing's words, Nie Yuan already knew that the Demon Emperor's thigh was likely truly impossible to keep.
"Are you going to take it out yourself, or should we go and take it personally?" ===== CHAPTER 1208 =====
