Chapter 1159

~6 min read 1,200 words

Hearing Qin Shanhai's words, as fellow disciples who had spent a lifetime together, how could the others not understand his meaning?

For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded.

We're fellow disciples, damn it, you're pulling this again? You threatened that brat Shan Hu, not enough, now you threaten us?

"No, junior brother, what are you doing? Let's just talk properly."

"I'm not good with words, but if you all insist on an explanation, this is my explanation."

"Senior brother, what are you doing? If you have something to say, say it properly, don't just brandish weapons."

"Junior brother, put the knife down, fellow disciples, this is pointless."

"Fine, I'll give you an explanation."

"Damn it, seeing Qin Shanhai pull this again, everyone was speechless."

"Yet they actually fall for it; surely we can't just watch Qin Shanhai harm himself?"

"So, we might as well give in."

"Okay, okay, junior brother, let's not say anything, alright?"

"Calm down, first put the knife down, can we just not say anything?"

"No one dared to continue speaking; Qin Shanhai is stubborn, others might hesitate, but this guy will do anything he says—if he says he'll stab, he really will."

"Under the others' constant persuasion, Qin Shanhai slowly lowered his long blade, and seeing that, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief."

"What is this? They clearly have no food, yet all that resentment has nowhere to go."

"After pacifying Qin Shanhai, Mu You and the other brothers who hadn't eaten all wore worried faces."

"We thought we had found a good way, and indeed it turned out to be a good way."

"Without Capture Dragon, did Hong Zun, Lin Potian, Qin Shanhai and the others get to eat? Each had a full portion—just thinking about it makes them drool with envy."

"But damn it, when it came to us, with a click the path was cut off—what is this?"

"The delicious food was right before our eyes, yet when it came time to eat, we found we had nothing to do with it—utterly outrageous."

"Are we just going to let it go like this?"

"What can we do?"

"But I'm not willing to accept this; I've waited several days."

"Who says it's any different? You think I'm willing?"

"No, I still want to try."

"How to try?"

"Let's go find Shan Hu again—I don't believe he never has a moment alone."

"Huh???"

"Hearing that, the fellow brothers exchanged glances—this method might actually work."

"Today Mu You was turned back by Ye Zhangqing; Shan Hu didn't show up at all."

"But that brat can't possibly hide in his room forever, and Ye Zhangqing can't keep guarding him all the time."

"Wait for him to be alone—then the opportunity will come, right?"

"But this time I'm not playing any ranking games; everyone will just use their own methods."

"Who knows if this method still works? Just like before, Hong Zun and the other three ate, but when it came to us, damn it, it didn't."

"At this moment, everyone had only one thought: first get the food in our stomachs, everything else is nonsense."

"No one objected; after this incident, nobody wanted to lag behind, so we each resorted to our own means."

"Even how to persuade Ye Zhangqing depended on each person's methods."

"The brothers had no objection; for a while, the canteen became their sole objective."

"Whether morning, noon, or night, even late at night, many peak masters would come stroll around the canteen."

"Without exception, everyone's target was Shan Hu."

"As soon as they arrived, they asked whether Shan Hu was there, where he was, what he was doing, and then said they'd go find him."

"Over several days, hearing Zhu Wu's reports, Ye Zhangqing also felt somewhat numb."

"No, you're really just grinding one person into the ground."

"These days, Shan Hu, hearing that all the peak masters were looking for him, was so scared he didn't dare step outside."

"They didn't bother asking what the peak masters wanted; anyway, it couldn't be anything good."

"A bunch of peak masters, acting like damn spies, would come to the canteen every day with nothing to do, just wandering left and right, leaving Ye Zhangqing speechless."

"Is this 'we won't stop until we achieve our goal'?"

"Ye Zhangqing also guessed what everyone was thinking."

"Put bluntly, it's that Hong Zun and the others already enjoyed it, while the rest of us have been completely stimulated."

"We're all fellow brothers, we agreed to share blessings and bear hardships together."

"If none of us had gotten to eat, that would be fine; we could just endure it."

"But damn it, Capture Dragon, Hong Zun, Lin Potian, Qin Shanhai—the four of them really did enjoy it."

"Originally we planned it together, but now you've eaten and there's nothing left for us?"

"How can that be acceptable? We should all eat together; you've eaten, so we want to eat too."

"Everyone who can think of a way wants to get a bite of that hot food."

"Ye Zhangqing knows a truth: it's not theft we fear, but being coveted."

"We can't keep guarding forever; someday we won't be able to hold out."

"How about I go talk to my senior brothers?"

"Beside him, Bai Hua Xianzi, seeing Ye Zhangqing lost in thought, spoke with concern."

However, regarding this, Ye Zhangqing shook his head and gave a bitter smile.

It's useless; this meal is probably unavoidable.

If it were useful, Ye Zhangqing would have said it long ago; even he thinks it's impossible, so there's nothing to say.

After thinking, that night, after dinner, Ye Zhangqing summoned Mu You and the others, as well as the Peak Masters and Elders who had eaten, to the backyard.

With a helpless smile, he said to everyone.

I say, you Peak Masters, you keep doing this all day, making people panic; the whole Canteen is in a fluster.

Young Ye Zhangqing, we don't want to either, but Hong Zun and them have already eaten, we...

Yeah, if we're going to eat, we should eat together; watching others eat while we have none— isn't that killing people's hearts?

Hearing Ye Zhangqing's words, the Peak Masters also said embarrassedly.

Just as Ye Zhangqing guessed, they have been hooked by Hong Zun and the others; not eating this meal makes them feel uneasy.

Seeing this, Ye Zhangqing laughed.

How about this: you Peak Masters stop coming to loiter around my Canteen all day; I promise you, each person gets a table, with no less than ten dishes, you can order, but I can only receive at most one person per day, the time is up to you, as long as I'm free, I'll agree— does that work?

Since we can't avoid it, we might as well take it on; moreover, there aren't many Peak Masters and Elders, and with one table a day, it's not much for Ye Zhangqing.

Upon hearing this, Mu You and the others' eyes lit up instantly— damn, happiness came so suddenly? It completely left them unprepared.

Just a second ago they were bitterly thinking how to get that hot bite, the next second this happiness came knocking— what a feeling.
