Huh???

What is this nonsense about life and death? That's such an exaggeration.

Afterward, the two explained their plan to Ye Changqing, and Venerable Hong and the others nearby heard it all.

After hearing the plan, Ye Changqing's expression was strange; he really had to give it to these two for coming up with this.

"Do you think they'll just agree because you're trying to win them over?"

"That's why we have you, Junior Brother. We trust you to handle it."

"But I don't trust it."

"It's fine, Junior Brother, go for it boldly. We'll back you up if anything happens."

The two's plan wasn't complicated: it was to win over Shi Weitian through Ye Changqing's culinary skills.

Didn't that Deacon Lin say earlier that this Jueshi was a guy born for cooking?

He had been obsessed with culinary arts his whole life, trying every way to improve his skills, and Ye Changqing happened to be able to satisfy him.

Although Jueshi was an Emperor-grade spirit chef, when it came to the taste of the food, he was definitely inferior to Ye Changqing.

On this point, Xu Jie and the others had absolute confidence, so they firmly believed that as long as Ye Changqing stepped in, he could easily handle him.

Once they had Shi Weitian's help, it would be possible to have a showdown with the Medicine King Pavilion.

Under the various assurances and persuasions of Xu Jie and Yun Sendai, Ye Changqing finally nodded and agreed helplessly.

He had no choice; looking at the two, if he didn't agree to their request, they wouldn't let it go.

Moreover, the Medicine King Pavilion was indeed a danger, and Ye Changqing agreed with one thing Xu Jie said.

That is, running away forever is not a solution.

The Medicine King Pavilion is like a plaster now; how long can they keep running?

It would be better to resolve it once and for all, and Shi Weitian was an opportunity.

The next day, after breakfast, Xu Jie volunteered to go and invite Jueshi to the banquet.

No one knew what method this guy used, but by noon, Jueshi, Deacon Lin, and Deacon Zhang really came to the small world where everyone was staying.

"Fellow Daoists."

Jueshi's attitude was still the same as yesterday, neither cold nor warm.

Yun Sendai and the others didn't mind this, chatting with Jueshi as if they knew nothing.

However, intentionally or unintentionally, everyone was hinting for Jueshi to look at Ye Changqing's culinary skills.

And to let Jueshi see more clearly, Xu Jie even set up a stove for Ye Changqing right in the courtyard.

At a glance, everything could be seen clearly.

Under the deliberate guidance of the group, Jueshi naturally noticed Ye Changqing very quickly.

Regarding Ye Changqing, Jueshi had heard Deacon Lin and Deacon Zhang talk about him before. At this moment, watching Ye Changqing cooking, Jueshi gave a soft "huh," and his attention was quickly drawn.

He couldn't even bother to talk to Yun Sendai and the others. At first, he was just curious, but later, his eyes were fixed on Ye Changqing.

He couldn't move them away at all.

Seeing this, Yun Sendai and Xu Jie smiled at each other; wasn't this a success?

Ye Changqing didn't think that much, but at some point, Jueshi had appeared beside the stove.

Watching the movements in Ye Changqing's hands, his eyes were already filled with heat.

Finally, he couldn't help but speak.

"Little friend, why do you add the seasoning first here?"

"Habit."

"No, there must be a deep meaning in this, and doing it this way, the fragrance seems even richer."

"And your method of marinating the meat is different from anything I've seen before. Is there some secret to it?"

"That I cannot disclose."

Jueshi couldn't help but ask one question after another. Ye Changqing's cooking techniques were truly unprecedented to him, but the results looked good.

It was just that there were many places he couldn't figure out and wanted to discuss with Ye Changqing.

Before, Deacon Lin and the other said Ye Changqing's culinary skills were heaven-defying, perhaps even better than his own.

At that time, Jueshi had scoffed, thinking that no matter how impressive he was, he was only a Saint-grade spirit chef.

And as an Emperor-grade spirit chef, could he really be inferior to a Saint-grade spirit chef in cooking?

As for asking Ye Changqing for advice, he hadn't even considered it.

Have you ever seen an Emperor-level expert ask a Saint for advice on cultivation?

It was impossible; where would a strong person ask a weak person for advice?

But at this moment, having truly witnessed Ye Changqing's culinary skills, Jueshi realized his previous thoughts were completely wrong.

This kid was indeed just as Deacon Lin said; he wasn't an ordinary Saint-grade spirit chef at all. This kid was very strange.

And regarding culinary arts, he seemed to have many of his own understandings, and these understandings were extremely novel to Jueshi.

For someone like him who had spent his whole life pursuing culinary arts, this was undoubtedly extremely attractive.

So, unable to suppress the excitement in his heart, he wanted to have a good discussion with Ye Changqing.

He felt that discussing with Ye Changqing would definitely lead to a huge improvement in his own culinary skills.

But Ye Changqing kept giving non-answers to his questions, saying "I cannot disclose" to everything.

After a few rounds, Jueshi was getting a bit anxious.

Seeing Ye Changqing say it again.

"Little friend, do you have time? Since we are both spirit chefs, we can sit and discuss the Dao, and improve together."

"Sorry, Senior, I don't."

Ye Changqing refused without hesitation. Of course, this was all told to him by Xu Jie—that when Jueshi asked, he should answer like this, and the more blunt, the better.

Being refused so bluntly, Jueshi was truly anxious now and couldn't help but say.

"Little friend, this... I have many fine ingredients and treasures at Shi Weitian. How about this: consider it me asking you for advice. If you are willing, you can choose any item from the Shi Weitian treasury. How about that?"

He even used bribery, and let Ye Changqing choose from the treasury himself without restrictions.

It showed that Jueshi was truly desperate. It was like having a peerless cultivation technique right in front of him, but he couldn't read the words—the feeling was as uncomfortable as it could be. ===== CHAPTER 2642 =====
