Chapter 1810

It's ugly as hell, but it's definitely a top-tier delicacy.

Although it carries potent poison, after being processed by a skilled chef, the taste can rival top-tier shark fin or abalone.

However, since this thing is poisonous, there have been cases of people dying from it in his past life.

Although not many, it still made most people wary, so many had never eaten it, or rather, didn't dare to.

But regardless, this thing definitely counts as a truly top-tier ingredient.

"Food Ancestor, this thing is ugly as death, why don't we throw it away?"

"Throw it away? They brought back so many of them."

Huh???

Following the finger of a spirit chef, good heavens, a huge pile of these ugly fish was stacked in the corner of the courtyard.

"You brought back so many?"

These were all brought back by the people from the three great Holy Lands earlier.

Seeing so many, everyone was in a bit of a bind; this thing is poisonous and ugly, so it's obviously not edible.

"This is good stuff."

But just as everyone was hesitating, Ye Changqing spoke up. Upon hearing this, the many spirit chefs were stunned, turned to look at Ye Changqing, then looked at the ugly fish in his hand, and asked doubtfully:

"Lord Food Ancestor, can this thing really be eaten?"

"Yes, not only can it be eaten, but the taste is excellent."

"But it's poisonous."

"Just process it, isn't that what we do as spirit chefs?"

Huh???

The spirit chefs were all confused; it's poisonous, so how do you process it?

In their way of thinking, if an ingredient is inherently poisonous, it must never be eaten; no matter what method you use to cook it, if it's poisonous, it's poisonous, and no matter how good it tastes, it's harmful to people and cannot be a delicacy.

Even if some powerful cultivators don't fear common toxins, this goes against the original intention of a spirit chef.

Making poisonous ingredients is no different from harming people.

Therefore, spirit chefs in the Central Continent have always preferred to discard poisonous ingredients rather than take even the slightest risk.

But at this moment, Ye Changqing could eat it, and it tasted quite good, without any regard for the poison issue.

The many spirit chefs hesitated to speak.

"Lord Food Ancestor, even if it tastes good, it's still poisonous after all."

"That's right, we can't serve poisonous things to others."

"Lord Food Ancestor, why don't we just throw this thing away? There are plenty of Demon race members, we don't need to worry about this little bit, right?"
