Chapter 2519: with translation of chapter title
Ye Zhangqing appeared, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Everyone looked at Ye Zhangqing with fiery eyes.
Ye Zhangqing had no nonsense about this; after looking around, he simply said.
"Junior thanks the seniors for their help today; I have prepared some simple wine, hoping the seniors eat well and drink well."
"All the dishes are plenty; seniors, feel free to eat your fill."
Upon hearing this, everyone became even more excited; they originally thought it would be as before, but never expected they could eat to their heart's content.
A Heavenly Family Elder laughed and teased.
"Haha, Ye Xiaozi, this is what you said; later don't blame us for eating you into poverty."
"That won't do."
Ye Zhangqing didn't mind, smiling and replying.
But then, changing the subject, he said.
"Tonight I have brought out all my stores; seniors, eat as much as you want."
"When we have cleared the extraterrestrial heavenly demons at that crystal mine and have ingredients, I will likewise prepare dishes for the seniors."
That simple sentence was like dropping a bomb in the crowd, instantly boosting everyone's fighting spirit to the heavens.
Ye Zhangqing's meaning is that as long as they can obtain ingredients, there's no need to worry about the food.
They can eat however they want? What a great deal!
For a moment, people in the crowd couldn't wait; after all, in the Immortal Realm, getting a bite like this truly requires great effort.
This time, coming beyond the heavens was correct; they truly came to the right place.
Without further ado, the banquet started quickly, and nobody held back.
Or rather, faced with such deliciousness, who could still be polite?
Even the Wushen Palace powerhouses who had never tasted such food in the Immortal Realm were completely unsettled after a bite.
They originally thought the Heavenly Family was exaggerating, but after actually eating they realized it wasn't exaggeration at all; it was beyond description, not even capturing a fraction of its essence.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the Heavenly Heaven Restaurant blazed hot.
Because Ye Zhangqing said today we could eat our fill, the food is more than enough.
With that remark, many ate more leisurely, at least having time to sip fine wine.
In the Immortal Realm, who has time to drink? By the time you finish your drink, the plate is already licked clean.
And the servers of Heavenly Heaven, the attendants, kept nonstop adding dishes.
The food is consumed incredibly fast; a plate hits the table and is empty within ten breaths.
The atmosphere was fervent, and everyone indeed ate to their satisfaction.
The banquet lasted until deep night, after which everyone left satisfied.
And that night, for many cultivators of the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens, it was also a sleepless night.
In the night, occasional sour jeers drifted over.
"Damn, what time is it, still not finished eating?"
"I can't even cultivate?"
"You guys can't close the window while eating; the smell is drifting out."
"Are you still letting people cultivate?"
"You're ruining my Dao heart."
These people were disturbed by the aroma wafting from the Tian Shan Heavenly Restaurant.
They were outright dazed by the fragrance.
But after the anger, many consoled themselves by saying.
"Hmph, eat eat eat, eat you to death—this is a condemned meal."
"I wonder how many of you will come back this time."
Without going through the Heavenly Palace, intending to face a large number of extraterrestrial heavenly demons is practically suicide.
You're enjoying the meal now, huh? Wait till you meet the extraterrestrial heavenly demons and you'll know regret.
Everyone thought this.
And after this banquet, the morale of the Heavenly Family, the Wushen Palace, and the people of the Cooking King Immortal City truly reached its peak.
Regarding the impending battle against the extraterrestrial heavenly demons, their hearts were not only unafraid but filled with excitement and anticipation.
These are all ingredients, after all; Ye Xiaozi said that with sufficient ingredients, they can eat as much as they want.
What kind of treatment is this? Could you have it in the Immortal Realm?
Not to mention the Heavenly Family, even those Immortal Chefs who previously followed Ye Zhangqing in learning are now volunteering to go together.
This left many people dumbfounded.
Some fellow Daoists of the Immortal Chefs, upon hearing the news, rushed over with grim faces, looking at their old friend like an idiot, and gritted their teeth.
"Did water get into your brain? You don't even know what the Heavenly Family and Wushen Palace people are going to do, yet you still want to follow them."
"This is clearly a suicide mission; what are you doing following it?"
During the Heavenly Palace's organized great battle before, you weren't this eager either; whenever you could dodge, you did.
In response, that Immortal Chef smiled indifferently.
"You don't understand; back then it was a suicide mission, this time is different."
Hmm???
That old friend wasn't worried at all; on the contrary, he was full of expectation, which left him stunned—this old thing is off.
"Where is it different?"
I can't make it clear to you, and this time even if you wanted to go, there's no chance—teacher doesn't want outsiders.
I'm fucking crazy—am I going to go give my life?
How can you talk like that? What do you mean 'going to die'? We call this following the teacher to enjoy blessings.
Enjoy blessings?
He stared deeply at his old friend before him—this old coot couldn't have gone mad, could he? You call this 'enjoying blessings'? Whose blessings are enjoyed like that?
He was full of doubt, and such a scene was not uncommon in the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens.
After all, faced with an old friend rushing headlong to his death, many people couldn't bear to watch and went to advise him.
But the answers they received were almost all the same.
How can this be called going to die? We're following the teacher to enjoy blessings.
Not only these Immortal Chefs, but also several of the Heavenly Palace Celestial Officials who had previous dealings with Ye Zhangqing stepped forward voluntarily.
They expressed their willingness, like Zhao Lao, to assist Ye Zhangqing in a personal capacity.
At the Tian Family Estate, looking at the five celestial officials before him, Ye Zhangqing said doubtfully.
"Have you all thought it through, seniors? This time we're going to face the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, and there are many of them; no one knows the outcome—people will die."
I didn't call for them—these people came forward on their own.
However, faced with Ye Zhangqing's reminder, these few celestial officials replied, not taking it to heart at all.
"Are we the sort who cling to life and fear death? We're here to fight the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon!"
"That's right, and Ye Xiaoyou's matter is my matter; I said so before—how could I go back on my word?"
"Hey Ye Xiaoyou, the earlier talk about eating with an open belly—is that true?"
Huh???
Faced with the five celestial officials volunteering, Ye Zhangqing finally agreed.
Mainly because the five were too enthusiastic—especially after receiving my affirmative reply, they insisted on going to the battlefield to help me.
For a time, the team's strength increased considerably, after all, five celestial officials—that's five Present Era's Strongest.
