Chapter 711: The Mouthwatering Urge Has Welled Up

Having personally witnessed Ye Zhangqing's Chúyì, the Spirit Chef Alliance up and down can be said to be completely convinced.

Their reverence for Ye Zhangqing in their hearts grew ever more sincere.

As for these, Ye Zhangqing paid no attention, and plate after plate of delicious dishes were completed in his hands.

Since they intended to let everyone have a good meal, there was no need to be stingy; they simply made it a buffet.

Soon, in the courtyard, a row of large pots was neatly arranged, each pot containing a dish perfect in color, aroma, and taste.

The Dao Yi Sect members, who had long been unable to wait, could no longer restrain themselves; in a moment, they all grabbed large bowls and rushed forward, their smiles uncontrollable.

"You damn fool? With so many dishes, what's the point of eating rice?"

Having taken a bowl, seeing Shen Xian eagerly wanting to get rice, Xu Jie cursed speechlessly.

"Damn, with so many dishes today, you want to go eat rice?"

Hearing that, Shen Xian finally reacted.

"Oh oh, right, eat vegetables, eat vegetables."

The Dao Yi Sect side was merely excited, while the Spirit Chef Alliance directly started crying, except for the three alliance leaders.

They had previously tasted Ye Zhangqing's craft, so they at least had some preparation; although they still wolfed down their food, it was still okay.

But the other members of the Spirit Chef Alliance, upon taking a bite, found the flavor instantly occupying their entire mind and spirit.

Although they were also spirit chefs, they had never tasted such a divine flavor.

Under the leadership of an old spirit chef with white hair, the spirit chefs quickly burst into tears of joy.

"Delicious, really delicious."

"Waa waa waa, I never thought I, an old man, would one day be able to eat something so delicious."

"This is all thanks to Fan Zu."

"That's right, thanks to Fan Zu; otherwise we wouldn't have this opportunity."

In a moment, the courtyard was filled with sobbing; Ye Zhangqing, sitting together with Bai Hua Xianzi and Jue Ying, looked at each old man crying with tears like pear blossoms in rain, and his face instantly darkened.

"Damn it, you can cry if you want, but can you stop constantly mentioning Fan Zu?"

"Don't let me find out who first shouted Fan Zu, or I'll definitely kill him."

He viciously bit into a piece of meat; this person Ye Zhangqing had been searching for a long time, yet he still hadn't found them, not even a clue.

But Ye Zhangqing would not give up; he himself would definitely ferret out this damned thing.

In the courtyard, everyone ate to their heart's content; outside the City Lord's Mansion, the rich aroma of food had already filled the entire city.

Originally gathered together discussing loudly, the many cultivators suddenly smelled this rich aroma, and their stomachs couldn't help but growl.

"How fragrant."

"Is this the Spirit Chef Alliance?"

With such a rich aroma of food, the first thing the cultivators thought of was the Spirit Chef Alliance.

But someone quickly objected.

"Impossible; I've eaten the dishes made by those spirit chefs before, and they simply don't have this kind of aroma."

"Could it be the three alliance leaders? After all, the Dao Yi Sect and the Spirit Chef Alliance..."

"No, not even they three could possibly have such ability."

"Yeah, I've been avoiding grains for years, but now I actually feel hungry."

"Me too."

"Same."

"No, I really can't hold back."

Ordinary food aroma holds no attraction for these cultivators, but this scent is nothing short of a dimensional strike.

Uncontrollably, the hunger worms in their bellies were stirred, saliva secreted in their mouths, making it utterly unbearable.

Soon, cultivators unable to endure began running toward the City Lord's Mansion.

But the closer they got to the City Lord's Mansion, the stronger the aroma became, the more irresistible it was.

Not long after, many cultivators had gathered outside the City Lord's Mansion, but the gates were tightly shut, and they dared not barge in.

"What should we do? It's so fragrant, I............"

"Right, I remembered I have something to report to Emperor Sovereign."

"Me too."

"Same here."

Someone spoke up, and immediately many others echoed, previously having nothing to do, now everyone had something to report to Emperor Sovereign.

Someone mustered courage and knocked on the gate; after a while, Xu Jie, looking displeased, opened the gate holding a large bowl.

But as soon as he opened the gate, he too was stunned: "Holy shit, so many people?"

Seeing so many cultivators gathered around the City Lord's Mansion, is this a rebellion? They don't even want to pretend anymore.

As for the cultivators of these major powers, the Dao Yi Sect could naturally guess their little tricks.

Put bluntly, these people could never be of one heart with the Dao Yi Sect; they would certainly side with Qingtian Holy Land, at least for the time being.

After all, compared to Qingtian Holy Land, the Dao Yi Sect is the outsider, and the choice is not difficult.

Therefore, from the very beginning, the Dao Yi Sect simply didn't care about them at all.

But now, these people have all gathered here; are they trying to force their way in?

While swallowing the food in his mouth, he glanced warily at the crowd, while everyone's eyes were fixed on the large bowl in Xu Jie's hand.

That bowl was full of plump, fragrant, delicious food.

Although not yet eaten, just from its appearance and aroma, it would definitely not be bad.

The sound of gulping saliva rose and fell; it turned out the Dao Yi Sect was indeed eating.

Just, when did the spirit chefs of the Spirit Chef Alliance become this formidable?

I've tried their food before; it was merely decent, but nowhere near this level.

This is totally heaven-defying.

Anything?

Facing the dazed crowd, Xu Jie asked lightly; only then did someone come to their senses and hurriedly step forward.

We have a matter to report to Emperor Sovereign.

Exactly, exactly, we have a matter to report to Emperor Sovereign.

So many of them have business? Hearing this, Xu Jie furrowed his brow; what's going on with these guys?

Wait.

Nevertheless, he nodded and replied, then directly closed the gate.

Seeing the gate closed again, the cultivators were stunned; what now?

What do we do?

Force our way in?

Brave one, safe travels.

Someone was nearly driven crazy by the scent, and actually suggested forcing their way in.

As soon as he said that, those around him gazed at him admiringly.

Damn, that's awesome—inside resides a Great Emperor, and you actually dare to barge into his home?

Facing the crowd's stare, he muttered under his breath.

So what should we do?

Forcing entry was out of the question; the cultivators could only crowd outside the door, wildly sucking in the scent.

What's wrong?

I don't know; that group said they had something to report.

Xu Jie returned to the courtyard, enjoying the meal while speaking indistinctly.

No sooner had he spoken than a disciple of Overlord Spear Peak nearby shuddered, his aura surging as he broke through a minor realm.

Seeing this, the Spirit Chef Alliance people were startled, looking horrified, while the Dao Yi Sect crowd stayed completely calm, as if it were nothing out of the ordinary, just a minor thing.
