Chapter 265

Again and again he suffered setbacks at Hong Zun's hands, Jueyuan's anger kept building, yet he could not give up Jueqing Shitai.

After thinking left and right, there was no good solution; in the end, Jueyuan could only set his sights on the Ten Thousand Buddha Grand Assembly.

The Ten Thousand Buddha Grand Assembly is the biggest gathering of the Buddhist faction, originating from West Province; during the event, all Buddhist sects of East Province will gather at Putuo Temple.

When the time comes, that will be Jueyuan's opportunity.

In the capital of Yanfeng Kingdom, I can't match your Dao Yi Sect; do you think we'll still be unable to match you at Putuo Temple?

That is his turf, the center of the Buddhist faction in East Province; when the time comes, he won't believe it—can the Dao Yi Sect still protect Jueqing Shitai?

Once he obtains the Immaculate Heart and breaks through that level, he will definitely make Hong Zun look bad.

Jueyuan secretly thought to himself, but he didn't realize that at this very moment, the Jueqing Shitai he had been longing for was being schemed against by the Dao Yi Sect.

Ye Zhangqing brought Xu Jie, Lu Youyou, and Wang Yao; the four of them came to the capital, planning to first buy some seasonings.

To make the master break her precepts, we definitely need to bring out our signature skill; the dishes Ye Zhangqing has already selected.

What food is most suitable for Buddhist practitioners to eat? Without a doubt, it's definitely Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.

Fortunately, the capital is rich in ingredients, and all the raw materials Ye Zhangqing needs can be found.

However, the higher the grade of the ingredients, the better the flavor naturally is.

Take this chicken, for example—if you use an ordinary chicken, it definitely can't compare to a chicken that has already become a demon.

White Feather Chicken is the best choice; moreover, if we could get the more precious Phoenix Bone Chicken, that would be even better.

Also, spare ribs, tendons, and the like—naturally, the higher the grade, the better.

However, demonic beasts like Phoenix Bone Chicken certainly cannot be bought in the capital; they are precious demonic races, rarely seen.

After purchasing a variety of seasonings, at dinnertime, when Hong Zun, Shi Song, and others heard that Ye Zhangqing wanted some higher-grade ingredients, Shi Song, without hesitation, stood up and said.

"Zhangqing kid, don't worry—it's just a Phoenix Bone Chicken; I'll go get the chief of the Spirit Chicken clan for you."

Huh???

I only said I wanted some high-quality ingredients, yet you're going to bring over a person's clan chief?

Before Ye Zhangqing could speak, Hong Zun beside him also stood up and said.

"Leave the spare ribs and tendons to me; I think the chief of the Fire Ox clan would be good."

Huh???

Good fellow, as for abalone, sea cucumber, and the like, Hong Zun and the others have taken care of everything, guaranteeing to bring the best for Ye Zhangqing.

Finally, Shi Song goes to get the Spirit Chicken chief, Hong Zun goes to get the Fire Ox chief, while Zhāng Tiānzhèn, Qing Shi, and Bai Hua Xianzi will make another trip to Jinhai Yingdi to get abalone and sea cucumber.

"Well, there's no need for that, right..........."

Ye Zhangqing felt it was completely unnecessary to make things so complicated; actually, just casually getting some demonic race would do.

But Hong Zun and the others disagreed; since we're going to eat, we definitely want the best, and the ingredients must be top-notch.

They didn't give Ye Zhangqing a chance to rebut; after finishing the meal, several people immediately left, flying off in different directions.

At this time, in a valley not far from the capital of Yanfeng Kingdom, this is the territory of the Spirit Chicken clan.

It's not considered a major demonic beast clan, relying on Yuan Mountain; its strength is moderate.

It also participated in the previous great war of the two clans, and its losses in the battle were not small.

It was completely used as cannon fodder by Yuan Mountain; when fighting the Human Race, it was always at the forefront.

Several strong ones in the clan have fallen, and even the chief is still nursing his wounds.

In the deepest part of the valley, inside a huge Dong Fu, the Spirit Chicken chief has just eaten a pile of spirit fruits.

Demonic races cannot concoct pills; their basic way of healing is through rest and consuming heavenly treasures and earthly riches that contain Línglì, or else eating people to replenish qi and blood.

"Damned humans, damned Yuan Mountain, just wait; once this king's injuries heal, I will definitely make you pay the price."

"Hey, haven't you caught any humans yet?"

After this battle, the Spirit Chicken chief's hatred toward humans has reached its peak, and he also has considerable resentment toward Yuan Mountain.

Therefore, recently, under its orders, the Spirit Chicken clan has captured many humans, the purpose being to vent its chief's anger.

After those humans were captured, the final result was that they were torn apart and eaten by a horde of demonic beasts, extremely tragic.

If he doesn't eat a few people each day, the Spirit Chicken chief now feels uncomfortable all over.

But today, no fresh humans have been sent for a while, and he couldn't help but shout angrily.

Along with his shout, the demonic beasts below quickly responded, saying they had already gone out to hunt, and fresh Human Race should be delivered soon.

Not long after, the freshly captured Human Race was delivered to the Spirit Chicken chief's cave.

"Chief, today we're lucky—we've captured a Human Race cultivator."

"Oh, hurry up and bring him up."

The Human Race cultivator, upon hearing this, the Spirit Chicken chief's eyes lit up; compared to ordinary humans, a cultivator's taste is naturally more delicious, and demonic beasts like it even more.

He hurriedly urged to bring the person up, and the demonic beasts below also nodded repeatedly.

"Yes."

Soon, an old man was escorted into the cave by several Spirit Chickens.

Seeing that the one who came in was actually a miserable old man, the Spirit Chicken chief frowned and said discontentedly.

"How come it's an old geezer; the meat isn't fresh anymore."

The Spirit Chicken chief is merely an Earth Demon cultivator, equivalent to the Human Race's Dharma Appearance realm, and the old man escorted in is none other than Shi Song, who has rushed all the way from the capital of Yanfeng Kingdom, covered in dust.

As soon as he entered the Spirit Chicken clan's territory, he was surrounded by a flock of Spirit Chickens, who said they were going to capture humans to send to their chief for healing.

Shi Song thought it over and decided to simply surrender willingly; besides, it would be more convenient—this way he gets to meet the Spirit Chicken chief.

The strength gap was too great; the Spirit Chickens below completely failed to notice Shi Song's true cultivation, merely taking him for an old man with some cultivation.

He muttered a complaint, then began to carefully size up Shi Song.

First, he wondered why he couldn't determine this old thing's true cultivation? He simply couldn't see through it.

Afterwards, he felt the old man before him looked somewhat familiar, but for a moment he couldn't recall exactly where he had seen him.

"Old thing, have we met before?"

"What do you think............"

Regarding this, Shi Song laughed and said. Upon hearing that, the Spirit Chicken Clan Chief grew more and more doubtful, familiar, too familiar—where exactly had this old thing been seen?

Staring fixedly at Shi Song, his mind constantly recalling, slowly, the Spirit Chicken Clan Chief's gaze gradually changed, from the initial icy cold arrogance, slowly turning to fear and dread.

It recognized him—this damn old thing isn't Shi Song of the Dao Yi Sect, is it............

During the previous war between the two clans, it was this old thing that almost slapped it to death; if it hadn't been clever, narrowly dodging at the last moment, it would have probably been killed long ago.

Now, this guy actually appeared in its cave, and even more absurd is that its subordinate demon beasts were captured.

His eyes filled with shock, he leapt up three zhang high, incredulously looking at Shi Song and said.

"You you you............. you are Shi Song............"
