Chapter 96: Fantasy Ingredients

It was no wonder the Yun family grandmother was so excited. In the old lady's eyes, her own grandson was a genuine disciple of an Immortal.

Xiang Yunye's mentor, Xiaoyaozi, who was purely fabricated, had long been placed on a pedestal by the old lady and regarded as an Immortal god.

By the same token, his fellow disciples were naturally also extraordinary existences who absolutely could not be neglected!

After the middle-aged woman left quickly, looking somewhat aggrieved, the grandmother smiled and said kindly, "The Yun family suffered a disaster in the past, and the women in the family have all suffered. Now that Ye'er has returned, they have finally lived a few days of wealth, but their vision and knowledge have never improved. I hope you don't mind!"

As she spoke, she turned to look at Xiang Yunye and said solemnly, "Since a distinguished guest has come to the door, how can it be so sloppy? You should have informed me in advance so that I could go and entertain the distinguished guest myself!"

After reading the original work, Lin Yu already had a good impression of this Yun family grandmother.

Now hearing this, he could not help but smile and shake his head, "Old Madam, you are joking. My junior brother and I are of the same generation, so it is only right that I visit you with my junior brother. How could I let an elder like you entertain a junior..."

"It's different! It's different!"

The grandmother shook her head stubbornly, looking at Xiang Yunye with loving eyes, "This child lost his parents when he was young. It was the old Immortal who adopted him, treated him as his own, cared for him, and not only raised him to be white and fat, but also kept him by his side and taught him a set of skills."

"Now Ye'er is sixteen, and he hasn't suffered any bitterness. Such great kindness, let alone entertaining, even if I were to kowtow for three days and three nights, it wouldn't be too much!"

Having said this, the grandmother's nose soured, and she actually reddened her eyes and shed tears, really intending to get up and kowtow!

Seeing this scene, Lin Yu and Xiang Yunye were both startled. The latter quickly stepped forward to support the old lady and said with a bitter smile, "Grandmother, didn't I tell you? My mentor is a master outside the world, who never adheres to etiquette in his actions, and even less likes this set of kowtowing. Why must you..."

"Yes, Old Madam!"

Lin Yu also said with a smile, "Even if we take a step back, the one you should thank is my junior brother's mentor. Worshipping me is worshipping the wrong person!"

The grandmother was startled upon hearing this and looked at Lin Yu with some doubt.

"You and Ye'er... are not from the same master?"

"Correct!" Lin Yu smiled, "Xiaoyaozi is my junior uncle. As for my mentor's name, please forgive this junior for having concerns and not being able to tell you."

"So that's how it is!"

The grandmother suddenly realized.

According to this, there is more than one old Immortal?

Recalling Xiang Yunye's behavior of going into seclusion from time to time some time ago, the grandmother was thoughtful, and a burst of joy surged in her heart.

Changan is the capital of the Great Tang, under the feet of the Son of Heaven. To gain a foothold here, one is not afraid of a big background, only afraid of having no background!

Now the power and wealth of the Yun family all depend on Xiang Yunye. If Xiang Yunye has an accident, the entire Yun family will be doomed.

The grandmother had been worrying about this, but now, from Lin Yu's words, she discovered that the sect behind her grandson was not as simple as an old Immortal living in seclusion.

Even if something happens in the future, Xiang Yunye still has an unknown retreat.

This discovery made the grandmother extremely happy, and her attitude toward Lin Yu became even closer.

Xiang Yunye supported the grandmother to sit down and said with a full face of smiles, "Senior brother visiting is a great joy for the Yun family. I plan to cook myself and make a table of good dishes to welcome senior brother."

The grandmother said with relief, "As it should be, as it should be..."

Xiang Yunye let go and continued to say with a smile, "After the food is ready, I will call a few aunts and the girls in the house, and we will close the door and have a good family banquet!"

Hearing this, although the grandmother's smile remained, a trace of worry appeared in the depths of her eyes.

Out of respect for the group members, Lin Yu did not pry into their psychological activities, but he keenly captured this trace of worry, so he asked in a low voice on the way to the kitchen with Xiang Yunye:

"Old Madam doesn't seem to want me to see the women of your Yun family..."

"Normal!" Xiang Yunye glanced at Lin Yu, "Who told you to have such a handsome appearance and extraordinary temperament? If it were me, I wouldn't want the sisters in the house to see you, lest they develop a love for you, have too high a vision in the future, and can't find a husband's family."

Lin Yu: "..."

Seeing Lin Yu's face darken slightly, Xiang Yunye chuckled, then sighed, "The old lady has traditional concepts. In her eyes, the relationship between us is the highest secret of my family."

"If possible, she doesn't even want the steward aunt to know of your existence, let alone the girls!"

"Of course, I understand my grandmother. She knows what is important and what is urgent. Compared to her own selfishness, the opinion of a distinguished guest like you is the most important!"

Lin Yu smiled, "I guess that's the reason too."

During the conversation, the two had already arrived at the Yun Mansion's kitchen.

The fat cook saw the handsome Lin Yu and immediately had a gleam in her eyes.

But before she could cheekily lean over, she was blasted out of the kitchen by Xiang Yunye and left with a grievance.

Just looking at this matter, it was a drama of a domineering Marquis bullying a cook.

But then again, in this era, apart from Xiang Yunye and the Yun Mansion, which servant or cook would dare to be so presumptuous in front of their own Marquis?

Looking at the modern decoration and stainless steel kitchenware in the kitchen, Lin Yu could not help but raise his eyebrows.

"Is this what you brought back from Under One Person?"

"People take food as their heaven!"

Xiang Yunye picked up a shiny kitchen knife and said with a grin, "Since there is an opportunity, of course, I have to take care of my own stomach first. As for other things, they have been hidden in the basement by me, and I haven't found an opportunity to appear in the world yet."

As an Immortal cultivator with dual water and earth spiritual roots, building a few underground secret rooms was just a basic operation.

In fact, the entire basement of the Yun Mansion had been hollowed out by Xiang Yunye with magic, filled with all kinds of materials brought from the modern era, and the weapons alone could be called a small arsenal.

Roughly estimated, it was enough to arm a modern force of over a hundred people and push through the entire Changancheng.

From this aspect, Xiang Yunye actually had some concerns in his heart and did not trust Li Er and Empress Changsun that much.

Looking at Xiang Yunye who was processing ingredients, Lin Yu sighed:

"At least you are the Marquis of Blue Field of the Great Tang, do you intend to deal with me like this?"

"It's already not bad!" Xiang Yunye said without looking back, "At least I have plenty of seasonings here, and my cooking skills can be called proficient. If I really changed to a restaurant in Changancheng, the taste wouldn't be as good as mine!"

This was not a lie. Several of the most famous stir-fry chefs in Changan now came out of the Yun Mansion.

Those chefs who had nothing to do with Xiang Yunye also had to pull and drag to get involved with the Yun Mansion to prove their cooking skills.

From this, it could be seen that in the current Changancheng, there really was no better place to eat than the Yun Mansion...

"Forget it, you do it if you want, but the ingredients must be changed!"

As he spoke, Lin Yu waved his hand and took out a pile of colorful ingredients from his sleeve.

Various rays of light bloomed in the kitchen, making Xiang Yunye almost unable to open his eyes.

"Whoa, prepared for this!"

Xiang Yunye looked surprised, "Then little brother won't be polite!"

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately took off a silver pouch woven with gold thread from his waist, spat out mana, and collected all these fresh ingredients into the pouch.

This kind of silver pouch that could store things was naturally Lin Yu's masterpiece—a storage bag modified from a Phage Pouch.

Its internal space was extremely large, and it was airtight, with adjustable temperature. It was truly a must-have item for home travel, killing people, and looting corpses!

As early as after leaving the Under One Person world, Lin Yu had put this kind of storage bag on the group mall.

The current price was only ten points, which could be called cheap and good, and the group members all said it was good after using it.

"What is this?"

Xiang Yunye took out a huge golden meat wing and could not help but say, "Could it be a Golden-Winged Great Peng?"

Lin Yu said unhappily, "Where would a Golden-Winged Great Peng come from in Frieren's world? This is a Griffin's wing..."

"So that's it... then are there any dragon wings?"

"No, there is a rack of Frost Dragon ribs, you can look for it, the one emitting cold air is it!"

"Found it, then let's make sweet and sour dragon ribs and roasted Griffin wings. Is there any honey?"

"The jar that glows..."

"Ah? Honey glows, won't it have radiation?"

"That is the honey light that helps bee pupae grow. On my side, it's all for children to eat, which can accelerate physical development and strengthen the children's physique."

"What about adults?"

"Hmm, not quite sure... maybe it can strengthen the yang?"

"That's it!"

After a busy time, Xiang Yunye finally made eight hard dishes and served them all on the dining table.

The ingredients for these eight hard dishes were all fantasy creatures. For ordinary people in the Tang Zhuan world, it could be counted as a table of Immortal banquet!

Eating a meal, not to mention immortality, at least it was strengthening the body and prolonging life.

Of course, the premise was that the Yun family's stomach could withstand these extraordinary foods.

To prevent them from having indigestion, Lin Yu specially took out the Youguang brand sparkling fruit juice brewed by a certain Immortal.

The raw material for this sparkling fruit juice was the fruit of the Youguang vine, which naturally possessed trace decomposition runes. After being brewed into fruit juice, it could help the drinker digest quickly, thereby eating more food.

Relying on this fruit juice, that Immortal successfully won the championship of the first "Dragon Stomach" big eater competition.

But later, he actually tried to sell his invention and was therefore discovered cheating by the Dragon Stomach, not only canceling the championship but also putting him on the blacklist, posting a notice, and explicitly prohibiting this cheating behavior.
