Chapter 2910: Wait a minute, something's off

~6 min read 1,172 words

"It's Ye Zhangqing."

"What is that human kid doing?"

Seeing the cleaver held in the giant's hand, several ancestors immediately shifted their attention to Ye Zhangqing.

Upon another look, the giant in the dark clouds looks exactly like that kid.

Although his face couldn't be seen clearly, his build felt exactly the same.

Several ancestors were dumbfounded—letting this kid show off a skill, make a simple meal, and you've stirred up a heaven-and-earth phenomenon? Is it inside their Barbarian God Tribe Divine Realm, or on the Divine Mountain Peak?

This is outrageous—what on earth is this kid cooking?

Even though they've lived who knows how many years and consider themselves well-informed, several Barbarian God Tribe ancestors are now somewhat overwhelmed.

And at this moment, the last ancestor who had not yet appeared was also driven out by this heaven-and-earth phenomenon.

His figure appeared on the horizon; seeing him, the remaining ancestors were stunned, then laughed and scolded.

"You old coot, you've come out of seclusion too?"

"Hmph, with such a huge mess, how could I not come out of seclusion?"

Hearing that, the other party retorted angrily; in response, the other ancestors weren't too tense, laughing and scolding.

"With us around, what could possibly happen?"

Just now it was merely a bit surprising; actually, there's really no danger.

With the strength of those ancestors, they could easily handle it.

Moreover, those ancestors figured out that this heaven-and-earth phenomenon only looks a bit intimidating; in reality it has no power, so there's no need to worry.

Hearing that, the last ancestor said nothing, merely raised his head and stared fixedly at the phenomenon in the sky, his tone somewhat displeased as he asked:

"Is this the thing that the human kid you invited caused?"

"How about it—since even a heaven-and-earth phenomenon has appeared, in some sense this kid's cooking must have something to it."

If making a dish can produce a heaven-and-earth phenomenon, without real skill it couldn't be done.

No one objected to that; the fact is indeed so.

This ancestor, who originally had no interest in cooking or food at all, now felt a hint of interest.

A dish capable of summoning a heaven-and-earth phenomenon—he really hasn't seen anything like it; he'd like to give it a try.

Seeing that ancestor not object, the other ancestors exchanged glances and all broke into smiles.

How rare—to make this old thing take an interest, Ye Zhangqing really does have some skill.

Unbeknownst to them, the ancestors now had greater expectations for Ye Zhangqing's cooking.

Ye Zhangqing naturally sensed the external heaven-and-earth phenomenon as well; Xu Jie beside him was scared silly, staring blankly and saying:

"Holy shit, junior brother, what did you do? How did you even cause a heaven-and-earth phenomenon?"

Before, when junior brother cooked, he never produced any phenomenon—has his cooking improved?

I've only heard that alchemy and weapon forging can cause heaven-and-earth phenomena, but never heard that cooking could do so.

Facing Xu Jie's exclamation, Ye Zhangqing remained calm.

He knew the phenomenon was mainly caused by that Primordial Giant Dragon Heart, due to the ingredient's efficacy.

He secretly sighed, this Eternal-grade Ingredient really is something—just now, with that knife cut, it truly felt like slaying a dragon.

It felt as if he had really slain a Primordial Giant Dragon with one blow.

But that's obviously impossible—not even with his own cultivation; even if Zhao Tianqing and Tianhe came, they'd probably just get beaten.

It's an illusion, yet eerily real—and that's precisely the terror of the Eternal-grade Ingredient.

After handling the Primordial Giant Dragon Heart properly, Ye Zhangqing continued with a solemn expression to the next step.

The main course of this meal is undoubtedly the Primordial Giant Dragon Heart—after all, it's the highest grade, and its preparation is the most elaborate.

Having mustered all his focus, after properly handling the Primordial Giant Dragon Heart, Ye Zhangqing began preparing the other dishes.

The other dishes were much simpler to make, and the process was quick.

And since the Primordial Giant Dragon Heart left the pot, the entire Divine Mountain Peak was filled with rosy clouds, another heaven-and-earth phenomenon.

At the same time, wherever those multicolored rosy clouds passed, they carried a rich fragrance that made people's mouths water.

"My goodness, what delicious dish is this? It smells amazing!"

The Iron Peak Clan Chief had already stared wide-eyed; the several ancestors beside him, though pretending to be calm, clearly were also eagerly anticipating.

They all just gazed hopefully toward the Fire Room.

Time seemed to slow; after waiting who knows how long, Ye Zhangqing finally finished.

Dish after dish was brought to the table, with the Primordial Giant Dragon Heart placed in the center.

After taking their seats, several other members of the Iron Peak Tribe and the two Feather God Tribe Elders also wanted to step forward, but an ancestor said:

"Get lost—do you think you're allowed up there? Serve your own rice and eat on the side."

With so many people, where could they all sit at one table?

Besides, with so many people, how would they divide this table of food? Would they really have those few old-timers and a bunch of juniors fighting over the meal?

Hearing that, although everyone was a bit unwilling, at least they could still eat; so they obediently served themselves rice and went to enjoy it separately.

After driving off the crowd, the Iron Peak Clan Chief and the five ancestors looked expectantly at the dishes on the table.

The last ancestor to appear was the first to pick up his chopsticks, aiming precisely at the bowl of Primordial Giant Dragon Heart.

He directly picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth; upon tasting, he felt an indescribable deliciousness explode in his mouth.

Savoring it carefully, he felt as if all his pores had opened.

"Old thing, tastes good?"

Seeing his expression of enjoyment, an ancestor teased, but the other couldn't be bothered to respond.

"He's busy eating—who the hell has time to answer you?"

As for these so-called delicacies, this old ancestor actually had no interest in them, but at this moment he couldn't help admitting that they were truly addictive.

It turned out he wasn't uninterested in food; he just had never encountered anything this delicious before.

Just one bite, and it's utterly blissful.

After finishing a mouthful, the old ancestor didn't hesitate—he picked up another chopstickful and put it in his mouth, and the others did likewise.

Savoring the supreme delicacy of the Primordial Giant Dragon Heart.

After just two bites, the old ancestor suddenly opened his eyes, wearing a complex expression, and said.

"Stop."

"What's wrong?"

The sudden shout made everyone at the table jump; they were eating just fine—why stop? You old brat, trying to pull a trick?

Under everyone's gaze, the old ancestor stared wide-eyed, his face stricken with terror, and said.

"Something's wrong—this old man's body feels off."

"Huh???"

"I could tell something was off with you a long time ago."
