Chapter 1219: One Move: Removing the Firewood from Under the Pot
Inside Dao Yi Shengdi, Qi Xiong, Yunluo Shèngzhǔ, Yaochi Shèngzhǔ, and Yun Xiantai, Yu Mo and others gathered in the main hall.
Qi Xiong first looked helplessly at Yunluo Shèngzhǔ and Yaochi Shèngzhǔ.
"Why haven't you gone back yet?"
"As a Shèngzhǔ, what are you doing hanging around all day in my Dao Yi Shengdi? Don't you have anything to do at home?"
"It's fine, someone will naturally handle it; let's first talk about the Spirit Race's affairs."
"It's said to be a mysteriously appearing spatial rift, but the energy emanating from it is very strange, something never seen before."
"Other than that, there's nothing abnormal for now."
They simply summarized the news from the Spirit Race; anyway, regarding that mysterious rift, so far little is known, almost nothing useful.
Upon hearing this, everyone was very curious, after all, such a thing had never appeared before.
"Let's go take a look."
"Sure."
"Who among us will go?"
"Qi Xiong, you hold down the Shengdi; we few will go."
"Okay."
Going was definitely necessary; in the end, Yun Xiantai led Yu Mo, Wang Man, Yuan Cang, and the recently breakthrough Wu Shou forward.
Also accompanying them were Shi Qingfeng, Bai Zu, and the two elders from Yaochi Shengdi.
The rest stayed behind.
Regarding this, Qi Xiong naturally had no objection; although he was also curious, going there would mean having nothing to eat, right?
By comparison, Qi Xiong was even more willing to stay behind, at least he could have a hot meal every meal.
Yunluo Shèngzhǔ and Yaochi Shèngzhǔ thought the same.
Compared to going to the Spirit Race, they would rather stay behind and have a hot meal.
But Yu Mo, Wang Man, Yuan Cang, and especially Wu Shou were dissatisfied.
"How are we supposed to eat if we go? Wu Shou, who had been in seclusion for so long, has only just eaten a few days ago, and now he has to go out?"
He glanced at Yun Xiantai, about to speak, but Yun Xiantai stopped him with a look.
After the matter was decided and they left the main hall, Wu Shou, with a bitter expression, looked at Yun Xiantai and said.
"Shīzūn, I don't want to go; I haven't eaten for how long..."
"You think I don't want to eat?"
"Then you............"
"Who said only we few are going? This old man is going to the canteen."
Yun Xiantai grinned and immediately headed straight for the canteen.
Seeing this, Wu Shou wore a thoughtful expression, then his eyes lit up as if he realized something, and he laughed, saying.
"Hehe, Shīzūn is indeed still scheming."
Yun Xiantai arrived at the canteen alone, not knowing what he said to Ye Zhangqing.
Then that night, the group hurriedly departed.
By the next day, when Qi Xiong learned of this, he was still full of doubt.
"Strange, how did Shīzūn and them leave in the middle of the night? It's not like they had to rush that much."
"Although that mysterious spatial rift is very strange, there's been no movement lately; it's not necessary to rush overnight."
Until, when Qi Xiong arrived at the canteen at breakfast time, the next second a shout of anger came from inside the canteen.
"Yun Xiantai, you dare to impersonate a teacher!"
"Damn it, Yun Xiantai took Ye Zhangqing away, along with Bai Hua Xianzi, Jue Ying, and even Chi Rao followed."
At this point, the only edible things in the canteen were dry rations, plus dishes made by other spirit chefs—but can that stuff be eaten? Pah, no, can it even be tasty?
Qi Xiong was numb; he had thought staying behind would mean he could eat, but who would have expected Yun Xiantai to pull a 'removing the firewood from under the pot' on him, taking Ye Zhangqing away.
That day, the entire Dao Yi Shengdi—no, plus the elders of all clans—was filled with complaints, as if the sky had collapsed, because they couldn't get a meal.
Meanwhile, on a spatial spirit vessel, Ye Zhangqing lay lazily in the cabin, surrounded by Bai Hua Xianzi, Jue Ying, and Chi Rao.
On the deck, Wu Shou, smiling, looked at Yun Xiantai and said.
"Shīzūn is still impressive; Senior Brother is probably cursing his mother right now."
"Heh, you little brat, your fur isn't even fully grown, and you want to fight me? You're too tender."
"Yes, yes, Shīzūn, how did you trick that little Changqing... no, bring him out?"
"I just told him the Spirit Race has a special seasoning; its taste is indescribable, but it's absolutely rare."
"Huh???"
Looking at Yun Xiantai speaking with a smile, Wu Shou froze, "You're not deceiving, are you?"
"You're deceiving little Changqing."
Seeing Wu Shou's expression turn somewhat dazed, Yun Xiantai naturally guessed what he was thinking and snapped angrily.
"Pedantic, first bring him out then talk."
"Yes, yes, that's what Shīzūn said."
"Hmph, you guys are just too rigid, not knowing how to adapt at all."
"Huh??? We don't know how to adapt?"
Wu Shou somewhat disagreed with that; do they not know how to adapt up and down in Dao Yi Shengdi?
"Damn it, the sect rules of Dao Yi Shengdi change three times a day—doesn't that count as adapting?"
The spatial spirit vessel is very fast, but because the Spirit Race is located in another direction within Human Race territory, relatively close to Yunluo Shengdi.
So even though they used the Teleportation Array, it still took more than a day to get there.
However, nobody felt tired along the way, mainly because Ye Zhangqing was there.
Moreover, with so few people, Ye Zhangqing had much more room to operate.
Unlike the big pot stew, every meal was different, and those who ate it found it endlessly satisfying.
Even after arriving at the Elf Tribe Royal City, everyone was still savoring the delicious food from the journey.
The Elf Tribe Royal City is the largest and oldest city of the Elf Tribe.
Built upon the sea of ancient trees, it is famed as a city in the sky.
Towering ancient trees can be seen everywhere in the city, and it is said that most of these ancient trees have gained sentience.
When faced with foreign invaders, they can still protect the city and launch a counterattack.
Four Elf Tribe elders personally went out of the city to greet them, while the remaining one waited at the United Hall to have a meal.
But when they saw Ye Zhangqing, the four Elf Tribe elders were first taken aback, wondering how Fan Zu Daren had also come.
But then they burst into wild joy, Fan Zu Daren has come, so they can also have a meal, right?
Earlier, in order to seize the posting to guard the United Hall, her five elders were unwilling to yield an inch.
In the end, it was the First Elder who managed to secure it.
They could only wait for the next opportunity.
But now, unexpectedly, things took a turn, and Fan Zu Daren appeared in their Elf Tribe Royal City.
Goodness, that means for the next few days they can have a meal, while the First Elder's side won't get any, right?
Just thinking about this, the four Elf Tribe elders were in high spirits. 'Well, what is this? This is just the turning of fortunes.'
For a moment, the four Elf Tribe elders' gazes toward Ye Zhangqing were as fiery as could be, until an extremely alluring voice sounded.
"Have you had enough? Staring at someone else's husband like that isn't polite."
Huh???
What are you doing here?
Looking toward the sound, the moment they saw Chi Rao, the four Elf Tribe elders' faces immediately darkened—what are these Charm Tribe people doing here?
