Chapter 1427

Wanting Ye Zhangqing, Yun Xiantai naturally wouldn't indulge him; facing Yun Xiantai's icy gaze, Medicine Cloud Peak Master gave an embarrassed smile and said.

Just joking, just joking.

Seeing this, Yun Xiantai no longer paid him any attention; other things could be discussed, but since it concerns Ye Zhangqing, there's nothing to talk about.

After finishing a meal, Medicine Cloud Peak Master comfortably patted his stomach; even the Grand Elder seemed to have regained some energy.

When he woke from the coma earlier, the Grand Elder seemed completely foolish.

Saying anything to him elicited no response; his whole person was like a walking corpse, as if he had lost his soul.

Medicine Cloud Peak Master could also understand; after all, given what happened, no one could accept it in a short time.

Moreover, for the sake of his Dao partner, the Grand Elder truly paid too much.

Originally, that woman fled to the Medicine King Realm and was being hunted.

I don't know how the Grand Elder met her, but in any case they soon became Dao partners.

Afterward, for her sake, the Grand Elder even spared no expense in using the Medicine King Pavilion's power to help her settle the pursuit.

At that time the Grand Elder didn't yet have his current influence; he was merely an ordinary disciple of the Medicine King Pavilion.

One can imagine how great a price was paid to help her.

Afterward, various Xiūliàn resources need not be mentioned; if the Grand Elder could manage it, he hardly ever refused.

As for medicinal pills, they were available on demand; one could say he gave his heart and soul for that woman.

But in the end, the son turned out not to be his own bloodline; the hurt can be imagined.

Before coming, Medicine Cloud Peak Master had also advised him many times, but unfortunately the Grand Elder never gave any response.

Originally I hadn't planned to bring him along, but this guy insisted on coming, and Medicine Cloud Peak Master couldn't stop him.

But after eating, the Grand Elder seemed to have regained some spirit; at least his eyes had more luster.

Setting down the bowl, Yun Xiantai asked in an unhappy tone.

"Speak, what else is there?"

"When do you plan to go to the Demon Realm?"

"What, are you afraid we'll run away?"

"Yun Dao friend misunderstood; I mean, if you're not in a hurry, you can come as a guest to my Medicine King Pavilion. Since the previous misunderstanding has been resolved, I also want to properly fulfill my host's duty."

Medicine Cloud Peak Master took the initiative to invite; hearing this, Yun Xiantai looked at him somewhat suspiciously.

Would this old thing be so kind-hearted?

Feeling a bit guilty under Yun Xiantai's gaze, Medicine Cloud Peak Master said this, but actually it was also because he had eaten Ye Zhangqing's food.

Thinking that if he could get Ye Zhangqing to come as a guest to the Medicine King Pavilion, wouldn't there still be a chance to mooch a few more meals off him?

Yun Xiantai originally didn't want to go, but couldn't withstand Medicine Cloud Peak Master's soft and hard persuasion, and finally nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Medicine Cloud Peak Master grinned, and could eat again.

After Medicine Cloud Peak Master finished speaking, he had originally intended to take his leave and come back in the evening, but at that moment the Grand Elder rose and looked toward Hong Zun, asking.

"How did you discover the problem?"

Earlier it was Hong Zun who used the bloodline formation to make a comparison, and only then did he discover this fact.

Having lived so many years, he actually never had the slightest suspicion.

Upon hearing this, Hong Zun pursed his lips.

"Is it that hard? He doesn't resemble him at all in appearance."

That Su Shao and the Grand Elder, you can't say they don't resemble each other at all; you can only say they have no relation whatsoever.

Their face shapes aren't the same, let alone their features; you can't see even a trace of resemblance.

Even if there were a bloodline mutation, a biological father and son should still have some semblance, but the Grand Elder and his son—no matter how you look, you can't see any father-son resemblance.

Upon hearing Hong Zun's words, the Grand Elder fell silent; originally he hated Yun Xiantai and others to the bone, having killed his only son—such a great grudge, how could it not be avenged?

But who could have imagined that the result would be like this—the son is not his own biological child.

Thus, the original deep-seated hatred naturally vanished like smoke.

After a moment of silence, the Grand Elder took a deep breath and said.

"The previous matter was my rashness."

Now the Grand Elder hates that scoundrel; thinking of having raised someone else's son for so many years, and having expended so much resources and energy on him, the Grand Elder feels as nauseous as if he had eaten a fly.

He's wearing a green hat.

Seeing off Medicine Cloud Peak Master and the Grand Elder, Hong Zun pursed his lips and said.

"After all, he's an Emperor-level pill master, yet he raised someone else's son for so many years."

"Maybe it's true love."

"Heh..........."

After a few days, whenever it was Fàn diǎn, Medicine Cloud Peak, the Grand Elder, including Feng Ming, Bai Xian'er and them, all rushed straight to the dining hall.

Originally the food, which was supposed to be "food is heaven", was not bad; after all, it was a restaurant.

But now, Medicine Cloud Peak and them have no feeling at all for this "food is heaven" meal; they just think about mooching food.

"Friend Yun Dao, why don't you just stay at my Medicine King Pavilion? Then we won't need to worry about the demon yuan fruit, and we can wipe the slate clean of previous matters—how about that?"

"No."

Naturally, it's impossible to stay forever at the Medicine King Pavilion; Yun Xiantai refused without hesitation.

Regarding this, Medicine Cloud Peak felt disappointed; Ye Zhangqing's food made him want to eat more and more.

Thinking that if he could eat it every day from now on, that would be great.

For this reason, that old fogey even secretly contacted Ye Zhangqing in private, offering conditions equal to the Emperor Sovereign's offerings, hoping only that Ye Zhangqing could stay at the Medicine King Pavilion.

However, unfortunately, before Ye Zhangqing could refuse, he was discovered by Yun Xiantai.

That made Yun Xiantai so angry he was grinding his teeth.

"Old geezer, you really are shameless—giving face and then refusing it."

"Brother Yun Dao, no, I didn't mean that, I just........"

He still dared to poach people behind the scenes, making Yun Xiantai so angry he chased Yao Yunfeng down several streets; if not for Feng Ming and Bai Xian'er stepping in, Yao Yunfeng would surely have gotten a sound thrashing.

After a few peaceful days, however, on this day Ye Zhangqing suddenly announced he would enter seclusion to begin his attempt to break through to Emperor-level Spirit Chef.

With no food to eat, everyone's mood naturally sank; even though they had Jueshi, an Emperor-level Spirit Chef, and under Ye Zhangqing's guidance his Chúyì had improved somewhat.

But compared to Ye Zhangqing, it's like a minor witch seeing a great witch—always lacking that little something.

"I say, Jueshi, your food really isn't good—you haven't even picked up a bit of Ye Zhangqing's skill."

Yao Yunfeng lifted his bowl, took a bite, furrowed his brow and said; hearing that, Jueshi felt helpless.

"You think everyone is Ye Zhangqing? I can only manage a faint resemblance; that's already quite difficult, okay."

Without Ye Zhangqing, nobody looked forward to it anymore; even Yao Yunfeng and the others stopped coming at Fàn diǎn.

This really hurt Jueshi; after all, he is also an Emperor-level Spirit Chef—do you have to despise him so much?

After three days of seclusion, Ye Zhangqing successfully broke through to Emperor-level Spirit Chef.

The breakthrough of a Spirit Chef is different from a cultivation breakthrough; it's a very mysterious feeling, as Jueshi said, it's like a kind of comprehension.

When one's comprehension of ingredients, Chúyì, and everything about being a Spirit Chef is sufficient, the breakthrough comes naturally.

And at this moment Ye Zhangqing successfully broke through to Emperor-level Spirit Chef; his comprehension of Chúyì and ingredients also reached a higher level.
