darkened, and Little Gold fell into the valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’ll continue at dawn tomorrow.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Gold took to the sky, searching for food in the nearby mountains and forests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young Master Lin, where is it going?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen answered, “Little Gold is in its growth stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It has an astonishing appetite and needs to feed every day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s gone hunting.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yuqi gave a small gasp, then asked curiously, “I heard that an adult Golden Winged Roc possesses remarkable power – even a peak Celestial Immortal might not be its match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How strong is Little Gold now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen chuckled, “Its power is similar to that of an Earth Immortal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it’s only a few years old, it’s still a child.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yuqi marveled, “So it’s as powerful as an Earth Immortal at only few years old.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Golden Winged Roc is truly impressive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen stopped at the edge of the pond in the valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a casual swipe of his hand, several fish of different species and sizes flew out of the water, landing at his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen inspected them for a moment, selecting two and kicking the rest back into the water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yuqi watched Lin Chen curiously, “Young Master Lin, what are you doing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen laughed, “I’m cooking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t you eat meals regularly?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yuqi looked curious, “Young Master Lin, you can cook?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When traveling, isn’t it enough to simply take Grain-Purifying Pills?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen asked, “Are the Grain-Purifying Pills tasty?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yuqi shook her head, “No taste at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You just swallow them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen shrugged, “Well, there you have it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cleaned and prepared the two fish, slicing one and placing it on a plate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then used a frost spell to cool the fish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other he cut into pieces and began grilling in a skillet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yuqi and Cui Hong exchanged a look, a strange glimmer in their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they quickly regained their composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, Lin Chen finished cooking dinner, portioning the grilled fish into three plates and serving them to the two women.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fhe fresh fish sashimi was set in the centerpiece of the table, with three dipping dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is so delicious!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few bites, Liu Yuqi remarked with surprise, “Young Master Lin, you’re truly talented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You even have such exceptional culinary skills…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen grinned, “Just average skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ingredients are the key.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dinner, Liu Yuqi took the initiative to say, “Cui Hong, go clean up the dishes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen didn’t object.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, who would object to having someone else do the washing up?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Lin Chen and Liu Yuqi chatted casually, occasionally glancing at the silently dish-washing Cui Hong, their eyes held a hint of amusement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three continued traveling together for several days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had become quite familiar with each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is the Worship Moon Mountain Range.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After crossing it, we’ll reach the Vast Sea Wilderness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After crossing the Vast Sea Wilderness, the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace will be just a short distance away.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen smiled, “Let’s first cross the Worship Moon Mountain Range.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We should take the edge path and loop around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the central area, we might come across formidable demonic beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With our current strength, we wouldn’t stand a chance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night, Lin Chen cooked another feast, this time spicy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was so spicy, the two women’s faces flushed red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s too spicy…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yuqi took out a bottle of light green liquid and took a sip, breathing a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So spicy, but so delicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Young Master Lin, your cooking skills are absolutely outstanding.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a pause, Liu Yuqi took out two more bottles, one for Cui Hong and the other for Lin Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young Master Lin, this is a specialty I bought on the road, a Hundred Fruit Juice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It helps to reduce spiciness, has a slight sourness and really stimulates the appetite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Want to try some?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen took the bottle, opened it, and took a sip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a little sour, sweet, somewhat like kiwi juice, and quite delicious, but there seemed to be an unusual aroma hidden in the juice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with a soft laugh, “Quite tasty, I feel girls may prefer this flavor.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yuqi giggled, “Relative to men, women certainly prefer this flavor, but it pairs well with the spicy dishes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dinner, Cui Hong again started to clean the dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen returned to his resting pavilion, sat cross-legged on the bed, and soon fell deeply asleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yuqi watched Li Chen fall onto his bed-strewn pavilion, a hint of delight in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young Master Lin…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen didn’t respond, continuing to sleep soundly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yuqi took a few steps closer, her voice a bit louder, “Young Master Lin?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen still showed no sign of consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cui Hong said, “After taking the Three-Day Drunk, he won’t wake up for at least two days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s no point in calling him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cui Hong spoke coldly and bluntly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yuqi didn’t seem to mind, and turned to smile, “It’s always better to be cautious.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cui Hong frowned, clearly annoyed, “He’s just an Early Jinxian, and the Golden Winged Roc barely matches an Earth Immortal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why are we being so cautious?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We can just take action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following him all this way is a waste of time!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yuqi chuckled, “It’s easier to make a move after getting familiar with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why use force when we can use our brains?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More importantly, what if the Golden Winged Roc runs away?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You know how much a young Golden Winged Roc is worth!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cui Hong snorted and huffed, “But look at you, playing the part of the damsel in distress and enjoying the ride while I do all the errands – serving tea, tidying up, and washing the dishes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yuqi blinked, laughing, “I will give you half of the gains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is that alright?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are good sisters supposed to squabble over such things?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1042,"2026-06-06T01:52:11.077Z",1,"novelbin.me","17c6c56288125edf26011af79d3c68d617d9fe2d9d2a86878d5d3bf7cc88c6ae","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-1557","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-1555",4071,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Furban-peerless-expert-cover.jpg"]
