Chapter 510: The Essence of the Kitchen Knife, Cooking the World's Most Delicious Dish
"I never expected that Senior Sister Shen's husband would be a madman. What a pity." The man in the white robe couldn't help but sigh.
The Heavenly Sect and the Ancient Thunder Sect were competitors, but their relationship wasn't as hostile as fire and water. Instead, they were like two pillars of stability for Ning Kingdom.
The disciples of both sects admired each other.
Seeing the state of Senior Sister Shen's husband, the man in the white robe couldn't help but sigh.
"Let's go, Brother Tu. Talking to these crazy people is a waste of time." The man in the white robe turned to leave, speaking to Tu San Gongzi.
However, Tu San Gongzi's reaction took him by surprise.
Tu San Gongzi hesitated, his face showing a hint of excitement, and he naturally refused the man in the white robe.
"Brother Mu, be careful with your words. Brother Qi is a graceful and refined gentleman, a true gem. How could he be crazy?"
Zhan Wenyu, standing beside them, sided with Tu San Gongzi, "Mr. Qi is a reclusive master, playing with the world. Only those with shallow minds fail to recognize a true dragon."
Zhan Wenyu spoke with a sense of superiority, looking down on the man in the white robe.
The man in the white robe was stunned, his face filled with astonishment as he looked at the two of them.
He felt dazed, as if three friends were gossiping about someone behind their back, only to meet the very person they were gossiping about, and the other two friends were treating that person with utmost respect and admiration.
He had become the clown in this situation.
Confused, he had a million questions in his mind. But more than that, he felt a surge of anger towards Tu San Gongzi and Zhan Wenyu.
"Hmph!" The man in the white robe coldly humphed and left without another word.
That cold humph seemed to say, "I'm not playing with you guys anymore."
When Zhan Wenyu saw the man in the white robe leave, he quickly apologized, "Mr. Qi, my previous mistake was due to my ignorance. I wouldn't dare to bully you."
Tu San Gongzi also bowed his head and tentatively said, "Senior, I have several tens of thousands of taels of silver that I wish to use to purchase... a lightsaber."
"I don't need money for now, and magical artifacts... I only sell to those with fate." Qi Yuan directly refused, "You already have a lightsaber, that's enough. Leave the opportunity for others."
Hearing this, Tu San Gongzi felt a bit disappointed.
But at the same time, he also confirmed that the person before him was the stall owner who sold him the lightsaber.
"How did you recognize me?" Qi Yuan asked.
"I..." Tu San Gongzi hesitated and took out a magical artifact, "Because Senior has killed some people, and as long as I get within three meters of this artifact, it will start to glow."
"Oh, is that so?" Qi Yuan seemed to ponder.
He also quickly understood that this should be the magical artifact of Thorn Blood.
"You two should leave, don't disturb my fishing."
Qi Yuan waved his hand and continued to lounge.
Upon seeing this, Zhan Wenyu and Tu San Gongzi respectfully took their leave, exchanging a meaningful glance and a deep smile.
Qi Yuan took out the Divine Wood Token and asked in the group.
"Hey, I killed the people of Thorn Blood, and when I got too close, their magical artifact started to glow. What's going on?"
Qi Yuan had social anxiety and didn't like the feeling of being scrutinized.
"This requires the help of some special Armament Commanders with unique methods to remove it, but the process is painful and will also harm the soul." answered Ji Yuan.
"Why so complicated? Brother Kitchen Knife, you're overthinking it. Next time you come to Divine Wood Spring, I'll give you a bottle of Thorn Cleansing Lotion. Just a sip and the mark will be gone." The staff of Thorn Blood was considerate.
"Can you give me a bottle now?"
"Brother Kitchen Knife, I'll definitely give it to you."
"I can't come over. How about I send Yan Shuangying from the Debt Collection Guild to find you?"
Yan Shuangying from the Debt Collection Guild was a versatile drone, formed by Yan Shuangying.
"Brother Kitchen Knife, you're not sincere."
"I'm not sincere, I haven't even discussed with that guy in the group about how to destroy Thorn Blood.
Since you say I'm not sincere, I'll discuss it with him now.
Hey, how many strong members does Thorn Blood have? Where is their headquarters? Give me some time, and I'll visit Thorn Blood's headquarters and wipe them out." Qi Yuan declared in the group.
Ji Yuan was speechless.
"Why does the new holder of the Divine Wood Token seem so... abnormal?" Ji Yuan didn't feel like talking in the group.
"Our headquarters isn't that interesting. Why not visit Divine Wood Spring? I'll have Thorn Blood's members stand still for you to kill." The staff of Thorn Blood responded calmly.
"I'll be there soon to wipe them out." Qi Yuan threatened.
Ji Yuan looked at the messages in the group and felt a headache.
He always felt like the members in the group were too casual.
The staff of Thorn Blood didn't seem like a formidable opponent, and Kitchen Knife's words didn't convey the image of a dragon slayer. Instead, he seemed more like a villain.
In this world... there's no hope left.
The massive ship continued its journey, slicing through the Wei River towards Ye Mountain Lake. Suddenly, it came to a halt.
Numerous Armament Commanders leaped off the ship, diving into the river to retrieve corpses. It turned out that a few days ago, the Heavenly Sect and the Water Lord of Ye Mountain Lake had clashed once again.
This conflict resulted in the deaths of thousands of innocent fishermen. Their bodies had been swept away by the floodwaters, and no one knew where they ended up. Now, the giant ship had stopped to retrieve the fishermen's corpses.
"Their bodies shouldn't be left without a proper resting place," someone said.
"They're all from Ninghe County, sigh..."
"That Water Lord is truly despicable. This time, I must restore the Dragon Emperor's might and suppress it."
"We've recovered ninety-eight bodies so far, sigh..."
On the giant ship, sighs and grumbles filled the air.
The atmosphere was slightly gloomy, but as this minor setback came to an end, the giant ship finally arrived at the dock of Ye Mountain Lake on the afternoon of the second day.
Ye Mountain Lake stretched as far as the eye could see, its vastness reaching the horizon.
People from the ship began to disembark.
Qi Yuan and Chen Kangbao followed Shen's group, heading towards Shen's stronghold.
A frosty-looking Zhisuang approached, her eyes fixed on Qi Yuan with a hint of strangeness, "I didn't expect you, my dear son-in-law, to also make it to Ye Mountain Lake."
This time, Shen's family had come to Ye Mountain Lake to participate in the Artisan Assembly. They were either powerful Armament Commanders or Artisans with exceptional talent.
Someone like Qi Yuan was completely holding them back.
"Where's your young miss?" Qi Yuan asked, his eyes burning. "I want to ride her."
At these words, Zhisuang's face grew even colder, "Dear son-in-law, don't speak such nonsense again."
If anyone else had said this, Zhisuang would have likely drawn her sword and split them in two.
But she still spoke, "The Water Lord has been causing trouble recently. The young miss is with the Heavenly Sect's elders at Ye Mountain Lake, and won't be back for a while."
Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan felt a bit disappointed, "What a pity, I've lost a mount."
"You!" Zhisuang gritted her teeth, glaring at Chen Kangbao. She was so angry she stomped her feet.
Even though Qi Yuan was her son-in-law, she was ready to take action against him.
However, she knew she wasn't Chen Kangbao's match.
After all, the last time, she had been knocked unconscious by what seemed like a sneak attack from Chen Kangbao. When she woke up, her whole body ached, and she had no idea what that scoundrel Qi Yuan had done to her.
She was still a virgin, so she probably hadn't done anything too outrageous, but... having her whole body touched... she still sometimes thought about it.
She felt both embarrassed and angry, but she didn't tell the young miss about these speculations.
Because she was the young miss's sword-wielding attendant, and the man the young miss would marry was also her future master.
...
Deep within Ye Mountain Lake, a female Daoist in a robe had eyes that flashed with brilliance.
She slashed through the towering waves with her sword, and deep within her eyes, there was a hint of annoyance.
"Water Lord, don't think that by hiding deep within Ye Mountain Lake, we of the Heavenly Sect can't do anything to you.
If you continue to cause trouble, I'll summon a Celestial Rank Magical Tool to suppress you!"
The Water Lord's strength was only at the Earth Rank Apex, a Grandmaster level of power, slightly stronger than this Daoist.
But within Ye Mountain Lake, the Water Lord had the home-field advantage, and its battle prowess would be enhanced.
More importantly, it had the powerful water-controlling technique! It was a Wield Spirit, and it had already merged with Ye Mountain Lake.
If it wanted to, it could even raise the endless waters of Ye Mountain Lake and flood Ninghe County.
The Daoist woman shouted towards the depths of Ye Mountain Lake, but unfortunately, deep within the mountain lake, the Water Lord's figure was hidden, and it had no intention of showing itself.
"Hmph!" The Daoist woman was furious. She flicked her sleeves and stepped on the water's surface, flying towards a raft.
A 1691 book, a look, no mistake version!
On the raft, there was a woman in blue, and the blue flower petals at her collar made her look exceptionally cold and beautiful.
She wore a veil over her face, making it hard to see her true appearance, but even with just this glimpse of her enchanting figure, she was already a heavenly beauty.
"Lingxuan, your husband should have already arrived at Ye Mountain Lake. You don't need to stay here on guard. Go and see your family." The Daoist woman spoke.
She was an elder of the Heavenly Sect and Shen Lingxuan's master.
Shen Lingxuan shook her head, "Now that the Water Lord is causing trouble, I need to stay here on guard."
The Daoist woman, Wang Qingyi, nodded, "That's fine, but be careful. If you discover the Water Lord's traces, inform me immediately."
"Yes." Shen Lingxuan was as calm as an orchid.
Wang Qingyi glanced at her disciple and felt a surge of pity, "If I were a Divine Mage Battle Master, how could I let my disciple suffer and marry a mortal man?"
Thinking of this, Wang Qingyi felt a mix of emotions.
Her disciple had a Yin-Body, and countless old demons coveted her.
This time, at the Ye Mountain Lake Artisan Assembly, there were even other manors, and even old demons from other countries. Their target wasn't the Water Lord, but her disciple.
"As a disciple, I've dedicated myself to my husband. But how can I serve him if I'm not whole?" Shen Lingxuan replied calmly. "All beings in this world are born equal."
"You've already attained the true essence of the Heavenly Sect. If not for your Yin-infused body, you might even reach the Divine Rank Armament Master, or even catch a glimpse of the legendary Godly Armament Master." Wang Qingyi sighed.
The founder of the Heavenly Sect, the first Sect Master, was a Godly Armament Master. The true essence he left behind was the equality of all things.
However, many of the Sect's elders and disciples didn't take this essence seriously.
Only Shen Lingxuan seemed to genuinely acknowledge this essence.
"You... might as well go and consummate your marriage early. Losing your Yin-infused body will set you back in your cultivation, but at least those old demons won't be eyeing you anymore.
I heard that the first flower thief of Ink Mountain Country, the Grandmaster Hengshan, has secretly infiltrated Ning Country, seemingly for you."
Mentioning this flower thief, Wang Qingyi's face filled with worry.
He was an Earth Rank Armament Master, a Grandmaster-level cultivator.
In terms of strength, he was slightly more powerful than her.
Shen Lingxuan stood at the bow of the boat, her expression as cold as moon frost: "I hope the Sect will protect Qi Yuan."
To coerce her, some people might take action against Qi Yuan.
Shen Lingxuan hadn't expected Qi Yuan to come to Ye Mountain Lake for the Artisan Assembly.
"Mhm, I've given the order, and there will be Earth Rank Armament Masters to protect you Shen family members." Wang Qingyi said.
...
Meanwhile, at the Shen family's stronghold.
Qi Yuan stretched lazily.
"How's the investigation going?"
Chen Kangbao's face showed difficulty: "The Kitchen Lady is too hard to find. It's easier to find a Kitchen... Dad."
"No, I have a clean freak for a companion." Qi Yuan refused.
After arriving at Ye Mountain Lake, Qi Yuan's strength had recovered significantly.
He was considering how to play the role of a Kitchen Knife."
To play the role of a Kitchen Knife well, he needed to find a Kitchen Lady to cook delicious human food.
Through constant cooking, his performance as the Kitchen Knife would improve.
This would bring him many benefits.
After all, he could only unlock new roles by completing other performance tasks.
Now, they were at Ye Mountain Lake, and by the big lake, they could prepare a Hundred Fish Feast.
This was Qi Yuan's guess.
As for why he wasn't looking for a "Kitchen Dad," well... of course, he was following his heart.
"Young Master, should we stick to the original plan... and set up a stall?" Chen Kangbao said.
Qi Yuan heard this and felt a bit disappointed: "It seems we still need to wait for a fated person."
Setting up a stall meant Chen Kangbao would sell the "Kitchen Knife."
"I'll leave a letter, and then we'll leave."
Qi Yuan thought, taking out paper and pen, and writing on the paper.
"Old man Chen Kangbao is a greedy glutton. He wants to eat delicious human food, so I'll take him to find it. Don't worry."
Qi Yuan finished writing the simple letter and placed it on the table, using a water glass to weigh it down.
After speaking, Qi Yuan immediately used Thousand Transformation, turning into a Kitchen Knife.
If it were before, this Kitchen Knife would be huge, about the size of a person.
But after Qi Yuan's strength increased, his Thousand Transformation could slightly control his size.
He adjusted his size to that of a regular Kitchen Knife.
Then, he burrowed into a hard yet soft shell.
"Transform!"
Using Thousand Transformation again, Chen Kangbao was turned into a color-changing dragon by Qi Yuan.
"Go, take me away."
Qi Yuan did this because after arriving at the Shen family's stronghold, he noticed many eyes, intentionally or unintentionally, always peeking over here.
He wanted to leave, avoiding everyone, and Thousand Transformation was definitely necessary.
"Alright!"
Having turned into a color-changing dragon, Chen Kangbao carried Qi Yuan and ran outside.
The two's figures only caught the attention of some servants, not attracting the notice of the Earth Rank Armament Masters.
"Young Master... is it safe now?"
Carrying Qi Yuan, Chen Kangbao arrived at a big mountain, where he encountered the most intense danger of his life.
Ahead, a big goose stared at him with predatory eyes.
Chen Kangbao panicked: "Someone's following?"
He was speechless. Who had such free time, following a color-changing dragon?
Only then, a figure landed near Chen Kangbao, a tall man with a smile that didn't seem friendly.
"It's rumored that Grandmaster Hengshan's illusion techniques are unmatched, and he steals flowers without being noticed. I didn't expect... he'd have such means. Grandmaster Hengshan... show your true form."
Clearly, this tall man had mistaken the color-changing dragon for Grandmaster Hengshan, the flower thief.
