Chapter 1426

Lin Gongfeng hurriedly left, rushing straight to the small world where Yun Xiantai and the others resided.

At this moment, Ye Zhangqing and Jueshi were preparing dinner together.

Although they had just gone through a great battle, everyone's enthusiasm for eating had not diminished in the slightest.

Even though the Fàn diǎn had not yet arrived, people had already begun to gather around the kitchen in dribs and drabs.

Originally I had been thinking about whether I could slack off, but now it looks like I won't be able to get away with slacking.

Fortunately, Jueshi was helping, so Ye Zhangqing felt much lighter; after all, as an Emperor-level Spirit Chef, there were many places where he could use help, and besides, there were the three leaders of the Spirit Chef Alliance.

Ye Zhangqing basically just needs to wield the ladle; it's not exactly hard work.

After interacting with Jueshi for a few days, Ye Zhangqing himself also learned quite a bit, mainly cooking techniques.

This food realm is indeed a paradise for Spirit Chefs; many cooking techniques that Ye Zhangqing had never heard of before are available here.

Moreover, Jueshi also said a lot about how to break through to Emperor-level Spirit Chef.

This gave Ye Zhangqing many ideas, and breaking through to Emperor-level Spirit Chef was now not far off.

Previously there was no direction for a breakthrough, but now there is, so this breakthrough naturally comes as a matter of course.

I suppose it should be just these few days before we can attempt to charge toward Emperor-level Spirit Chef.

The three leaders and Jueshi lent Ye Zhangqing a hand, and soon fragrant aromas began to waft from the kitchen.

The people waiting around, upon smelling the aroma, couldn't help but drool.

Once the food was ready, everyone served themselves and started eating heartily.

Indeed, after the great battle, being able to eat Ye Zhangqing's food was the greatest happiness.

Even Jueshi, this Emperor-level Spirit Chef, was holding a big bowl at the moment and eating there with great delight.

Logically speaking, given Jueshi's status, there isn't any good thing he hasn't eaten.

Moreover, as an Emperor-level Spirit Chef, his culinary skill is naturally not bad; otherwise, the saying 'food is heaven' would not have developed to this point.

Even many people travel hundreds of thousands of li, crossing the Wújìn Xīnghǎi, just to come to the food realm to taste his skill.

But now, faced with Ye Zhangqing's food, Jueshi looks like a starving ghost reborn.

This taste is truly top-notch; Jueshi sometimes wonders how this kid Ye Zhangqing can produce such delicious flavor.

This skill is simply outstanding; although he hasn't broken through to Emperor-level Spirit Chef yet, Jueshi already feels inferior.

It's hard to imagine, but if Ye Zhangqing truly breaks through to Emperor-level Spirit Chef, what a sight that would be.

Having eaten and drunk their fill, the people were satisfied and not in a hurry to leave, instead chatting in small groups around the kitchen.

This is probably the most relaxed moment of the day for everyone.

Having just eaten delicious food and filled their stomachs, now a few close friends gather together to chat and drink; this feeling is really nice.

At this moment, Ye Zhangqing is also sitting together with Qiu Baiyi and the four women, with several plates of home-style stir-fry on the table.

The treatment of the four women is naturally different from others; they eat from a private stove every day.

Moreover, they don't have that wolfish gulping feeling others have, after all they are Ye Zhangqing's women—how could they possibly lack these delicacies?

Ye Zhangqing varies the dishes every day when he prepares them for the four women.

Three meals a day, plus afternoon tea, have never been missed.

Qiu Baiyi elegantly picked up a pair of chopsticks of stir-fried greens, then turned her head to ask Ye Zhangqing.

"Are we really going to the Demon Realm to get the demonic essence fruit?"

She couldn't help but feel worried, her brows furrowed.

As for the demons, Qiu Baiyi has had little contact with them, after all the Tianwu Realm is far from the Demon Realm, and even the food realm where everyone is now located is far from the Demon Realm.

But she has surely heard of them; the demons are not weak in strength among the myriad realms, and can be considered one of the top few great clans.

Moreover, demons are naturally warlike and insatiably greedy, having already destroyed many worlds.

However, relying on their great strength, few races are able to stand against them.

And since the Demon Realm is the demons' main base, going there would be somewhat dangerous for everyone.

Hearing this, Ye Zhangqing calmly smiled and said.

"The elders have already made their decision; they should be going, right? Why, are you worried?"

"Hmm, after all, the demons are not simple."

"Don't worry, big sis; we do have experience dealing with demons."

Compared to Qiu Baiyi's worry, the Three Hundred Flowers Fairy Maidens don't feel that much pressure.

Immediately, while eating, the three women recounted to Qiu Baiyi everything that had happened in their past battles against the demons in the Haotu Shijie.

When they got to the exciting parts, all four women couldn't help but burst into delighted laughter.

It turns out the demons have suffered many losses at the hands of the Haotu Shijie, and moreover they are actually a top-grade ingredient.

Under the narration of the Three Hundred Flowers Fairy Maidens, Qiu Baiyi also lost that tense feeling.

Because, as told by the three women, the demons don't seem so frightening after all.

After a night passed, the injuries of Yun Xiantai and the others were not serious; those who were severely injured, after taking healing medicine and resting overnight, had their conditions brought under control.

So early the next morning, even those dragging injured bodies came to the kitchen just to have a bite of hot food.

After breakfast, with nothing to do, everyone went about their own business.

By noon, they gathered again at the kitchen, and at this point Yao Yunfeng and the Grand Elder actually came of their own accord.

After inquiring, they found their way to the kitchen all along, and fortunately they happened to arrive just in time for the Fàn diǎn.

Even before entering the door they smelled a tempting fragrance, and even the Grand Elder, whose eyes were dull, flashed a hint of unusual color in his eyes at this moment.

"This flavor................"

Yao Yunfeng's eyes lit up even more; he immediately strode into the Yuàn zhōng, and as soon as he entered he saw the crowd queuing up for meals.

This guy is also quite the familiar sort; he went straight to find Yun Xiantai.

"Friend Yun Dao."

"How did you come here?"

"I came to discuss the Magic Yuan Fruit with you—are you having a meal?"

"You can't see it?"

"You don't mind adding two more sets of bowls and chopsticks, do you?"

Huh???

This guy's shameless; he gleefully held his bowl and went up to serve rice with the Grand Elder.

He then approached Yun Xiantai and the others, casually squatted down like they did, and began to eat.

Upon taking a bite, Yao Yunfeng's eyes brightened; even the usually lethargic Grand Elder seemed to regain his vigor.

"Delicious."

Mumbling, he said that, then immediately bowed his head and gulped his food.

While eating, Yao Yunfeng mumbled to Yun Xiantai:

"Friend Yun Dao, who made this meal?"

"Youngster Zhangqing."

"Ye Zhangqing? I didn't expect he'd have such skill. Let's discuss a matter, friend Yun Dao: hand Ye Zhangqing over to my Medicine King Pavilion, and we'll consider past grievances settled. How about that?"

"Yao Yunfeng, don't force me to slap you when I'm at my happiest."

Hearing this, Yun Xiantai's eyes turned cold; he fiercely glared at Yao Yunfeng, still wanting Ye Zhangqing? Fat chance.
