Chapter 2337
Halfway through the crossing, the Heavenly Tribulation vanished, which left the remaining ancestors who hadn't yet taken the stage feeling extremely uncomfortable.
Qin Shanhai and Lin Potian were among them, and at this moment, Qin Shanhai looked at Lin Potian with a look that suggested he wanted to eat him alive.
"What do we do now?"
Qin Shanhai had been about to go up just a moment ago, but Lin Potian, who was standing to the side, had told him to wait a bit longer, saying that if they made their grand entrance at the very end, they would absolutely be the most dazzling ones on the entire stage.
But now? Damn it, they hadn't even gone up yet, and the Heavenly Tribulation was gone. How were they supposed to handle this?
Facing Qin Shanhai's intense gaze, Lin Potian was also stunned; he hadn't expected things to turn out this way either.
They were crossing the tribulation perfectly fine, and then the Heavenly Tribulation just disappeared—what the hell was the Heavenly Dao doing? Could it not have a beginning and an end for once?
"This... I didn't expect it to turn out like this either."
"You... Lin Potian, I'm telling you, if I don't get to eat this meal, I'll fight you to the death."
"Definitely, definitely. Let me think of a way; we'll definitely get to eat. Don't worry."
Lin Potian was also suffering in silence; how was he supposed to know things would end up like this? But when it came to eating, his eyes rolled, and he figured there should still be a chance.
As the Heavenly Tribulation dissipated, the ancestors all had different thoughts, while Ye Changqing was completely bewildered.
"It's over just like that?"
He had just been lying here, having done nothing, and the Heavenly Tribulation had already vanished?
He couldn't feel any aura of the Heavenly Tribulation, and his cultivation base was thoroughly stabilized; it looked like it was over.
But as for the process, Ye Changqing could only say it was hard to describe in a few words.
Afterward, under the escort of the elders, Ye Changqing returned safely to the Daoyi Sacred Land.
And not wanting to disappoint the ancestors, Ye Changqing, to express his gratitude, said he would personally host a banquet for them.
This made the ancestors instantly excited; this was exactly the sentence they had been waiting for.
"Little Friend Changqing, you are being too polite. A mere Great Saint Heavenly Tribulation is nothing at all, but since it is your kind intention, I will accept."
"Indeed, indeed. Little Friend Changqing, there is no need for this; we don't take a small tribulation to heart. By the way, when are we eating?"
Hearing this, the ancestors all exchanged pleasantries, but as they spoke, the tone began to feel a bit off.
Weren't they just acting like there was no need to be polite? Why did they turn around and ask when they were eating?
There weren't many people, just about a hundred or so, so Ye Changqing thought for a moment and set the time for three days later.
All the ancestors who were present today should come then, regardless of whether they had taken action or not.
It was just a matter of a few extra sets of bowls and chopsticks; Ye Changqing still had that much emotional intelligence.
Regarding this, the ancestors naturally returned home satisfied; they had just blocked a tribulation and managed to score a meal—a huge profit.
Three days passed in a flash. On the evening of that day, the ancestors arrived as promised, and Ye Changqing had long since finished his preparations.
He used Demon ingredients, Beast ingredients, and Savage Beast ingredients. Although the grades weren't very high, the variety was rich, and it looked appetizing.
For many of the ancestors, this was their first time eating a private meal, and they were already incredibly excited.
If Ye Changqing hadn't arrived yet, they probably would have already started.
There were several tables full of dishes. Ye Changqing had started preparing yesterday, though, of course, the basic tasks were handled by Zhu Wu and the three leaders of the Spirit Chef Alliance.
It was just a simple, casual meal, so Ye Changqing naturally didn't need to be that exhausted.
When Ye Changqing came up from the kitchen with the last dish, he saw the ancestors sitting upright, but their eyes were already red as they looked at the delicacies on the table, and they were swallowing their saliva constantly; they looked like they were craving it uncontrollably.
"Seniors, please eat. Is the food not to your liking?"
"Not at all, we were just waiting for you, kid."
Hearing this, Qi Xiong laughed and scolded him. Compared to the other ancestors, Qi Xiong was still relatively composed.
He had at least eaten this a few times; he had to maintain his composure.
Seeing this, Ye Changqing smiled, and the moment he spoke, the ancestors couldn't hold back anymore.
This was the limit. No one knew who moved their chopsticks first, but in the next second, a whirlwind swept through the dining tables.
The chopsticks were dancing on the tables so fast they left afterimages.
The tables, which had been full of dishes, were emptied at a terrifying speed in an instant.
Seeing this, Ye Changqing simply put down his chopsticks. He had originally intended to have a drink with them, but in this state, what was the point of drinking?
Even if Ye Changqing wanted to reach out with his chopsticks, there was simply no way to start.
The speed of the ancestors was simply breathtaking; the dining table had turned into a battlefield, a scene of "clashing blades."
After the meal, the ancestors of the various clans who hadn't eaten a private meal before were all incredibly excited.
It was delicious. Compared to the communal meals at the dining hall every day, the taste of this private meal was on a whole other level.
This wave was not a loss; it was absolutely not a loss.
It was also fortunate that Ye Changqing wouldn't be breaking through again anytime soon, otherwise, the ancestors would probably have all been ready to block the Great Emperor Heavenly Tribulation for him.
What did the Great Emperor Heavenly Tribulation matter? They weren't afraid at all. "I'm a Great Emperor Realm expert, surely I can block it?"
As for injuries or anything like that, the ancestors cared even less.
A mere fatal injury was just a matter of a few pills; as long as they could eat, everything was negotiable.
Once they were used to the taste of the private meals, who would have the heart to fight for the communal food?
But this thought was clearly unrealistic. He had just broken through to the Great Emperor Realm, and even with the system, Ye Changqing couldn't just rush to the Great Emperor Realm; it would take time.
After eating and drinking their fill, the ancestors finally started drinking, and they didn't leave until late at night, feeling reluctant to part.
"That meal was satisfying."
"That bolt of heavenly lightning was worth it, though it's a pity the Heavenly Dao chickened out at the end."
"When do you think the kid Changqing will cross his next tribulation?"
"How would I know? But it shouldn't be that soon."
They were already thinking about the Great Emperor Heavenly Tribulation, but this was something no one could control.
