Chapter 1409: Invitation to Go
Seeing that Yun Xiantai did not continue to pursue the matter, Devotee Lin and Devotee Zhang also breathed a sigh of relief.
The two of them were not in a hurry to leave, wanting to take this opportunity to get to know Yun Xiantai and the others.
"Where do you come from, fellow Daoist?"
"It's far away; if I told you, you might not know."
"No problem, no problem, but since you've come to our Food Realm, fellow Daoist, you should definitely walk around and see; our Food Realm has plenty of delicious food, a great place to relax."
Those who come to the Food Realm come for the food; of course, besides food, other enjoyments are naturally indispensable.
Food and sex are also natural; in the Food Realm, almost any large restaurant can be regarded as a Gōulán.
What a Gōulán has, it has; what a Gōulán does not have, it also has.
Like the Hall of Hundred Flavors that Ye Zhangqing and them visited yesterday, it has such service.
As they spoke, Devotee Lin revealed a smile that any man would understand; Yun Xiantai, Hong Zun, and the others also nodded in understanding.
This sort of thing hardly needs Devotee Lin and them to remind; Hong Zun and the others were already old hands at it.
However, when it comes to the food of the Food Realm, nobody cares whether the culinary skill of Youngster Changqing is good; but as for other places, this Food Realm is indeed not bad.
Especially the alcoholic beverages, they suit Hong Zun and them very well.
Not to mention the variety, the taste is also quite good.
Devotee Lin and the two of them chatted idly with Yun Xiantai, Dongfang Hong, Hong Zun, and the others, but their glances frequently turned toward Qiu Baiyi.
The three Emperor Sovereign Realm experts were obviously what the two of them paid most attention to, but Qiu Baiyi clung to Ye Zhangqing's side, paying no heed to their intentions at all.
Regarding this, Devotee Lin and the two of them were curious; that earlier incident seemed to have arisen because of this youth, and now Qiu Baiyi is constantly by his side.
After inquiring, they found out that Qiu Baiyi is Ye Zhangqing's Dao Companion.
This made Devotee Lin and the two of them value Ye Zhangqing even more, even changing their mode of address.
"Young friend Ye, you are truly outstanding in appearance and talent."
With the discernment of Devotee Lin and the two of them, they could naturally see Ye Zhangqing's cultivation realm at a glance.
A mere early-stage Great Saint Realm cultivator actually has a Dao Companion in the Emperor Sovereign Realm? This is simply absurd.
Although Ye Zhangqing being able to attain this cultivation at his age makes him undoubtedly a youthful Heavenly Pride.
But what does an Emperor Sovereign powerhouse signify? Especially Qiu Baiyi—aside from cultivation, her looks are absolutely stunning, and her age among Emperor Sovereign Realm cultivators is definitely considered young.
From this, it can be seen that the younger Qiu Baiyi was also a top-tier Heavenly Pride.
Yet she ended up taking a liking to a junior?
Furthermore, with everyone's concern for Ye Zhangqing, the two of them merely praised him a few sentences; look at Yun Xiantai and the others—they're so happy they can't keep their mouths shut.
They are even happier than when they praise themselves.
Ye Zhangqing, on the other hand, had no idea what Devotee Lin and the two of them were thinking; seeing Shopkeeper Zhao with a look of grievance, he spoke a few words of comfort.
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Zhao said helplessly.
"Young friend Ye, there's no need for this; I was just being blunt earlier."
I simply mentioned that I am already an Elder of the Dao Yi Shengdi; naturally I cannot join any other faction, let alone stay in the Food Realm.
Regarding this, Shopkeeper Zhao laughed helplessly; what else can be done? He gritted his teeth and accepted it.
After some idle chat, seeing that it was nearly mealtime again, Ye Zhangqing rose to cook; Devotee Lin and the two of them were also invited to stay.
As for Shopkeeper Zhao and the three others, without Ye Zhangqing saying anything, all three were reluctant to leave.
Recruiting Ye Zhangqing is impossible, but being able to eat a few more meals of such deliciousness is also good.
He specially had Chef He help him as an assistant; during this time, Ye Zhangqing also taught him quite a bit.
This moved Chef He deeply; that manual of the Lightning Control Art was truly priceless—compared to the knowledge Ye Zhangqing taught, that Lightning Control Art manual was practically worthless.
Chef He studied wholeheartedly, daring not to have the slightest distraction; whatever Ye Zhangqing entrusted him with, even if it was just a simple washing of vegetables, he completed it meticulously.
Having a Saint-level Spirit Chef wash vegetables—this is probably something only Ye Zhangqing could manage.
Yet Chef He had not the slightest complaint, resembling a fresh apprentice who had just entered the door.
At noon, he simply prepared three dishes and one soup.
As the aroma gradually spread, the eyes of Devotee Lin and the two of them, who had originally stayed only out of politeness, also gained a hint of anticipation.
The two of them are devotees of Food Heaven; being Emperor Sovereigns, yet willing to become the devotees of a restaurant, this is naturally because they both love fine food.
They have also traveled many worlds, but nowhere has any food that can compare to Food Heaven.
The culinary skill of the Founding Ancestor of Food Heaven is the best the two of them have ever seen, so they stayed.
Of course, Food Heaven provides the two of them with vast amounts of cultivation resources each year; this is necessary.
Merely trying to bind an Emperor Sovereign with pure cultivation resources alone is impossible; there must also be other reasons.
I had thought I would no longer be interested in the food of other places, until now, upon smelling that tempting aroma.
Devotee Lin and the two of them were soon driven mad with craving.
When the food came out of the pot, Yun Xiantai greeted the two of them to serve themselves rice, and they could not help but gulp down saliva.
A simple meal of big-pot rice; the two of them followed Yun Xiantai and the others' example, taking a large bowl and serving themselves the food.
They simply squatted beside Yun Xiantai and the others and began to eat.
In the past, the two of them would never have a meal without eight or ten dishes, and they would also need beautiful companions and fine wine.
But now, the two of them pay no heed to their image, squatting on the ground and taking big bites.
With one mouthful, the two of them wore the same expression; that never-before-tasted deliciousness instantly conquered them.
They ate in big mouthfuls, simply unable to stop.
A large bowl of rice was finished in just a few bites by everyone; Shopkeeper Zhao and the three others were no exception.
Although it was not the first time they had eaten it, they still could not restrain themselves, feeling as if their tongues were about to be swallowed.
After finishing the meal, Devotee Lin and the two of them looked at Ye Zhangqing with eyes that seemed to glow.
If it weren't for Shopkeeper Zhao standing in front, the two of them would probably have blurted out an invitation.
After all, if we could recruit Ye Zhangqing into Eat for Heaven, then wouldn't we be able to enjoy such delicacies anytime from now on?
But faced with Yun Xiantai's warning gaze, the two dared not speak out.
But their attitude toward Ye Zhangqing became obviously enthusiastic, and they even proactively invited Ye Zhangqing to visit the headquarters of Eat for Heaven.
"Ye Xiaoyou, I truly admire your culinary skills."
"Yeah, I and Lin Laogui have also traveled far and wide; all my life I've loved this kind of food, but I've never seen anyone whose culinary skills can match yours."
"It's that old fellow from Eat for Heaven; his culinary skills can't compare to yours."
"By the way, Ye Xiaoyou, if you ever have time, you must definitely come visit our Eat for Heaven."
"Yeah, that old fellow may not be as good as you, but he still has some skills."
The old fellow they were referring to is the ancestor of Eat for Heaven; Shopkeeper Zhao had also briefly mentioned it to me before—a genuine Emperor-level Spirit Chef.
As for him, Ye Zhangqing is still very interested, after all, it's his first time seeing an Emperor-level Spirit Chef.
