Chapter 1571
As the fragrance came rushing at them, the three Azure Dragon Hall Masters unconsciously swallowed their saliva.
They now somewhat believed the Vermilion Bird Hall Master; this Ye-surnamed kid really does have some skill.
Soon, Bai Xian'er and Qiu Baiyi, the two girls, carried over plate after plate of exquisite dishes.
As the dishes were served, the three Azure Dragon Hall Masters stared wide-eyed.
If Yun Xiantai and the others were here, they'd probably be the same.
Because this time the dishes are completely different from what Ye Zhangqing usually cooks, mainly in presentation.
Before at Dao Yi Shengdi, Ye Zhangqing never cared about plating; anyway, with Yun Xiantai and the others gulping food down whole, plating would be wasted effort.
Nobody cared about that; as long as it tasted good, it was fine.
But this time, Ye Zhangqing specially did the plating, so these plates of dishes now look like peerless treasures.
The Black Tortoise Hall Master couldn't help but speak.
"My goodness, is this thing edible?"
The three of them were somewhat reluctant to eat it; it looks so valuable, they just want to put it away for safekeeping.
They had never had such a thought about food before; it's simply outrageous.
The table is very abundant; although there are only a few people, Ye Zhangqing prepared over twenty dishes.
As all the dishes were served, Ye Zhangqing also walked out from the kitchen.
Approaching the table, under the Vermilion Bird Hall Master's introduction, he greeted the other three hall masters in turn.
As for Bai Xian'er and Qiu Baiyi, they obediently went back to their rooms.
Today's matter is not suitable for the two girls to be present.
After they got acquainted, Ye Zhangqing also sat down, wondering how to speak, when the Black Tortoise Hall Master suddenly asked.
"Can we start eating?"
"Huh???"
Hearing that, Ye Zhangqing looked at the three; seeing their eyes fixed on the table of dishes, he instantly understood and smiled.
"Please, seniors, go ahead; today's feast is specially prepared for you three seniors."
"Haha, then I won't stand on ceremony."
Hearing that, the Black Tortoise Hall Master was not at all polite and directly started eating.
Beside them, the Azure Dragon Hall Master and White Tiger Hall Master did the same, not wanting to be outdone; even the Vermilion Bird Hall Master joined in.
He had tasted Ye Zhangqing's cooking yesterday, but today the Vermilion Bird Hall Master found the flavor seemed even more delicious by a bit.
Even the Vermilion Bird Hall Master was amazed, let alone the three Azure Dragon Hall Masters.
As they took a bite, their eyes instantly widened.
Just now the Vermilion Bird Hall Master said Ye Zhangqing's skill was number one under heaven, anyway all kinds of boasting to the heavens.
The three still somewhat disbelieved, scoffing inwardly, but now after actually tasting the flavor, they all felt the Vermilion Bird Hall Master's earlier words were not exaggerated.
Perhaps she simply ran out of words, lacking education, unable to find a better adjective to describe the dishes' deliciousness.
Anyway, the three felt this meal was the most fragrant they had ever eaten in their lives, bar none.
Even though they are the four great hall masters of Yongye, Emperor Sovereign Realm perfected experts, facing Ye Zhangqing's cooking, the four still turned into crazy rice-guzzlers.
Their eating was no better than Yun Xiantai and the others, and moreover the speed seemed even faster.
Among them, even the White Tiger Hall Master, a mere woman, although her eating manner wasn't as unrestrained as the Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise Hall Masters, even gave off a restrained feeling.
But her speed was not slower than the two Azure Dragon Hall Masters.
At this moment Ye Zhangqing also didn't interject, knowing that whatever he said now they wouldn't listen; better to just wait until they finished eating to speak.
After a gust that swept away the clouds, the full table of over twenty dishes was cleared out by the four.
Moreover, the four at this moment still had an expression of wanting more, as if they hadn't eaten enough.
They definitely hadn't eaten enough; after all, with something this delicious, when would one ever have enough?
However, this meal was indeed refreshing; the three Azure Dragon Hall Masters also admitted it inwardly.
Seeing everyone finish eating, Ye Zhangqing voluntarily rose to pour good wine for the four.
Earlier they ate too hastily to have time for drinks; they didn't even manage to pour a cup.
"Junior toasts the seniors with a cup."
Ye Zhangqing raised his cup first and said; hearing that, the three Azure Dragon Hall Masters didn't say much more and likewise raised their cups.
After draining the cup, the Azure Dragon Hall Master turned his head to Ye Zhangqing and said.
"Are you Ye Zhangqing?"
"Indeed you're handsome; would you consider me, little brother?"
Beside him, the White Tiger Hall Master, without waiting for Ye Zhangqing's reply, let out a coquettish laugh.
"Heavenly talent outstanding, appearance handsome, and more importantly his cooking tastes this good."
For a moment, the White Tiger Hall Master actually felt a flicker of heart-moving feeling.
But the Azure Dragon Hall Master gave her a harsh white eye over this; what nerve does this flirtatious thing have.
He also ignored it, turned his head to Ye Zhangqing and said.
"We know your purpose, but the alliance matter need not be discussed further."
The words were very direct, leaving Ye Zhangqing no need to speak, also meaning that with the three Azure Dragon Hall Masters this matter simply cannot be negotiated.
Even the White Tiger Hall Master, who just had a flirtatious smile, upon hearing this did not refute but chose to acquiesce.
Right off the bat he was directly sentenced to death, yet Ye Zhangqing showed no panic at all.
Instead he slowly spoke, uttering the prepared explanation he had ready.
First are a few Space Rings; these are meeting gifts for the three hall masters.
Their reaction was the same as yesterday's Vermilion Bird Hall Master; they didn't care for these things and had no strong demand.
Ye Zhangqing had already guessed it would be so, and then he brought up the matter of Demon Race Food Material.
Today's dishes, Ye Zhangqing specially prepared using Demon Race Food Material.
Upon hearing about the Demon Race Food Material, the eyes of the three Azure Dragon Hall Masters finally showed a hint of change; evidently, they were more concerned about this issue.
All the way to the end, Ye Zhangqing revealed his trump card, which was the matter of Demon Emperor Food Material.
This Demon Emperor Food Material not only tastes better, but can also be used as a great medicine; as soon as he said that, even the three Azure Dragon Hall Masters couldn't help but feel tempted.
Because whether it's taste or efficacy, this Demon Emperor Food Material is truly a treasure.
Having closely watched the expression changes of the three Azure Dragon Hall Masters, Ye Zhangqing knew his opportunity had arrived.
So far, the development of events has been proceeding in the direction he anticipated.
This is good news for Ye Zhangqing.
So, when the three Azure Dragon Hall Masters were somewhat tempted, Ye Zhangqing directly played one of his hole cards.
"If the three seniors can agree, I, the junior, promise to give Yongye a hundred spots; no matter who, as long as they come to my Dao Yi Shengdi, I will provide them with three meals a day."
"And for anyone who wishes to break through to Emperor Sovereign, I will unconditionally prepare Demon Emperor Food Material for them."
This is Ye Zhangqing's trump card; those earlier greeting gifts and such were merely groundwork for this.
