Chapter 2271: Is This Thing an Ingredient?

Watching Tianlin's attacks land repeatedly, the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon's aura kept weakening, and the head of the Heavenly Family couldn't hold back.

To slay this Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, this matter must not be left to him.

I haven't even killed an Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon yet—how could my son make the first move?

He immediately stepped in to stop Tianlin, gesturing that he too wanted a turn.

"Dad, I'm almost done, next one I'll give.................."

"Cut the nonsense, step aside."

The eager Tianlin was unwilling to step aside, but before he could finish speaking, the head of the Heavenly Family grabbed him and pulled him behind.

He then eagerly looked at Ye Zhangqing and said.

"Young Friend Ye, I'm ready; you speak."

Seeing this, Ye Zhangqing didn't mind and continued to tell the Heavenly Family head the remaining weak points.

Under Ye Zhangqing's direction, the Heavenly Family head's strikes were indeed spot-on every time.

Several successive attacks struck precisely at the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon's vital point.

Accompanied by a mournful wail, after the nine vital points were destroyed, this Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon finally died.

Seeing the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon collapse lifeless, the head of the Heavenly Family's eyes filled with excitement, unable to refrain from saying "good" three times.

"Good, good, good, now we needn't worry about these Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons."

Directly slaying them is certainly more troublesome than sealing, and it consumes no effort or resources.

Ye Zhangqing has indeed rendered great merit; the Heavenly Family head and Tianlin share the same view—this is a service to the whole Immortal Realm.

Having personally slain two Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons, the Heavenly Family head harbors no further doubt.

At this moment, Ye Zhangqing approached the father and son and casually said.

"Senior, may I have the corpses of these two Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons?"

"No problem, just two corpses, but you need to come..................."

Two corpses, nothing major; the Heavenly Family head casually asked what Ye Zhangqing intended to do with the corpses.

Ye Zhangqing did not conceal it, immediately explaining the matter of the ingredients.

Upon hearing this, both father and son were startled—could the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon be food?

Especially Tianlin, whose eyes lit up as he looked at Ye Zhangqing.

"Brother Ye, is this true?"

"Yes, and its grade surpasses that of Immortal Beast ingredients."

Ye Zhangqing replied truthfully—higher than Immortal Beast ingredients? Tianlin couldn't help but swallow.

His gaze unconsciously swept over the fallen Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon's corpse, looking at something so filthy yet supposedly high‑grade?

This Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon looks nothing like a high‑grade ingredient at all.

Yet Ye Zhangqing doesn't seem to be joking, nor would he joke about this.

For a moment, Tianlin's heart involuntarily filled with anticipation, and even looking at the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon seemed more pleasing.

Since Ye Zhangqing wants the two corpses, the Heavenly Family head readily agreed.

Leaving the Dong Fu, the Heavenly Family still seals several other Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons, but having mastered the slaying method, there's no need to rush this one or two days.

Today it's not early either; waiting until later when there's time to kill them is fine.

The two corpses will be delivered by Heavenly Family personnel when the time comes; Ye Zhangqing need not worry.

Returning to the residence with Miao Qianqian, seeing Ye Zhangqing unharmed, Bai Hua Xianzi and the other women finally relaxed.

She stepped forward, expressing concern.

"My husband has returned."

"Mm."

"Did you encounter any danger?"

"What danger could there be? My husband has rendered great merit this time."

Miao Qianqian laughed and said, then proceeded to recount Ye Zhangqing's slaying of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon to Bai Hua Xianzi and the other women.

After hearing Miao Qianqian's account, the women's expressions were marvelous.

I never expected my husband to accomplish such a great deed silently.

More importantly, this Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon turns out to be food as well.

After chatting a while, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Early the next morning, Ye Zhangqing still hadn't risen, but Tianlin was already waiting in the Yuàn zhōng.

After Ye Zhangqing woke up, washed up, Tianlin saw him and strode forward.

"Big brother, you've finally awakened."

"What's up?"

"You ask what's up? The ingredients are ready for you; when will you get to work?"

Tianlin is even more eager than Ye Zhangqing; yesterday's two Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon corpses, he had already arranged for people to send them to the Fire Room.

Moreover, he had driven everyone out of the Fire Room; without permission, no one may approach it.

After a busy half‑day, he's just waiting for Ye Zhangqing to act, so he can taste what the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon is like—whether it surpasses Immortal Beast ingredients.

Yet in the courtyard he waited left and right, not even managing to eat breakfast.

It's already mid‑morning, Ye Zhangqing only just got up; can Tianlin not be anxious?

Seeing Tianlin's frantic appearance, Ye Zhangqing laughed.

"No need to be so anxious."

"How can I not be anxious? Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons—no one has ever said they're food before; we have to give them a try."

The grudge between the Immortal Realm and the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon has existed for a long time, but because of the Heavenly Palace, the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon finds it hard to enter the Immortal Realm, so ordinary cultivators know little about it.

But Tianlin is different; born into the Heavenly Family, he naturally knows many secrets that ordinary people don't.

He deeply understands the danger of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon.

But now, Ye Zhangqing suddenly tells him that the dreaded Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, which makes people pale at the mere mention, is actually a food ingredient—and even a higher-grade one than Immortal Beast ingredients.

Who wouldn't be curious? Being able to hold back for a whole night already shows Tianlin's understanding of Ye Zhangqing.

Under Tianlin's urging, Ye Zhangqing's group came to the canteen.

Bai Hua Xianzi and the other girls also followed along, able to lend Ye Zhangqing a hand.

But upon seeing the corpses of the two Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons, Bai Hua Xianzi and the girls all frowned and said.

"Husband, is this really a food ingredient?"

The appearance of this Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon is indeed not impressive—pitch black all over, just looking at it makes one frown.

Blue-faced with fangs, like a ghost.

Hearing this, Ye Zhangqing laughed and said.

"You can't just look at the surface; besides, this needs to be handled."

"Right, right, right, Brother Ye, you say it—we'll help you."

Tianlin beside him kept nodding; he had studied those two Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons last night and didn't feel they were any top-grade ingredient.

Seeing Tianlin's eager look, Ye Zhangqing smiled, shook his head, and then said.

"I'll do it myself; first I'll make a dish to try."

For now I don't need everyone's help, after all this is also Ye Zhangqing's first time handling this kind of ingredient—he himself has no experience, and if he still had to teach everyone, that would be too troublesome.

First let's see how the taste is; we'll talk about it later.

Having said that, Ye Zhangqing stepped forward and took out his own cooking utensils.

Although the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon is an immortal-grade ingredient, processing it is quite troublesome; even though the system's method has been simplified, it still requires several steps to clean it properly.
