Upon hearing Yang Zhen’s words, everyone was taken aback. Hu Tao burst into laughter, doubled over and pointing at Yang Zhen, gasping for breath as she said, “A god of food, you?”
“Don’t assume that because you’re handsome, you can boast. If you’re a god of food, I’ll eat this kitchen knife!”
“Noway!” Yang Zhen quickly grabbed the kitchen knife, looking serious as he said, “The kitchen knife is the lifeblood of this food god. Are you trying to eat my lifeblood?”
“Your lifeblood?” Hu Tao shivered, looking at Yang Zhen in disbelief, mumbling to herself, “So, he values a kitchen knife this highly, this is the attitude a true Spiritual Meal Master should have!”
Looking at the knife in Yang Zhen’s arms, Hu Tao’s eyes began to shine brightly, “Are you really a Spiritual Meal Master?”
“Of course, would I lie to you?” Yang Zhen looked sideways at Hu Tao, “If this food god is telling a lie, then… then let you eat the lifeblood of this food god!” “Bah!” Hu Tao stuck out her tongue, “Iwouldn’teatakitchenknife!”
Yang Zhen blinked, “Not that lifeblood, you will want more after you taste it.” Hu Tao stared blankly at Yang Zhen, asking in surprise, “What is so delicious?” Yang Zhen replied seriously, “Of course, it’s the lifeblood of this food god!” “Then I want to eat your lifeblood!”
Her words startled Yang Zhen as he watched Hu Tao with sparkling eyes and a look of eager anticipation. And a certain indescribable part of Yang Zhen shivered.
Damn, she’s dangerous!
After a moment, Hu Tao jumped off the stool with a ‘thud’ and told Yang Zhen, “I’ve decided, you come to cook, and I will be your assistant!”
What?
Everyone present looked bewildered at Yang Zhen and Hu Tao. No one expected their roles to be reversed by a few words.
Especially the female disciple from the Spiritual Studies Palace, she rolled her eyes, snorted and said, “Nonsense, Hu Tao, do you really want to give up this opportunity? Your… your spiritual meal is really delicious, and it contains enough True Essence energy. What… why are you doing this?”
Yang Zhen was stunned. So, this young girl’s name is Hu Tao?
Hu Tao laughed and said to the female disciple, “Senior Sister Wan Ru, whether I get into the kitchen of the Spiritual Studies Palace or not doesn’t make much difference to me. Since this Yang Dingtian says he is also a Spiritual Meal Master, why not give him a chance?”
The female disciple known as Wan Ru smiled bitterly and said, “Alright then. I haven’t tasted anything more delicious than your spiritual meal in so many years. However, if you let him cook… be prepared for disappointment.” Hu Tao turned to Yang Zhen and said, “Yang Dingtian, it’s not too late for you to regret it. Otherwise, you, the food god, might end up losing face!” Yang Zhen curled his lips, looking smug, “I, the food god, will lose face?” Speaking of which, Yang Zhen looked at Hu Tao, “You want to randomly cook at this important moment. You’ve reached a bottleneck of spiritual materials. Since you’re giving this opportunity to me, I’ll show you my creation. Pay attention to my every step!”
Hu Tao looked stunned and stared at Yang Zhen, “What are you going to make?”
Energized, Yang Zhen said, “This is a dish that will drive all the women in the world crazy. The girls in our village would even willingly offer their bodies for this world’s delicacy!”
“What?”
Upon hearing this, everyone was dumbfounded, their expressions wildly fluctuating, staring blankly at Yang Zhen.
“That’s preposterous, there couldn’t be such an exaggeration in a delicacy in this world that women would willingly offer their bodies in exchange!” “This is… this is the most absurd thing I’ve heard in years. This fellow must be unreliable. Miss Hu Tao just wasted this opportunity.”
“This Yang Dingtian must be a madman or a fool!”
The crowd was buzzing with conversation. Senior Sister Wan Ru’s face was dark and unsettled, as if she were about to get angry. But after taking a look at Hu Tao, she snapped back to reality and resisted the urge to lash out. She scoffed, “Utter nonsense! Who is this person? Is he a rogue practitioner from the Spiritual Studies Mountain Range?”
At this point, the Spiritual Meal Masters on either side of Yang Zhen had already started up their fires. Various magical ingredients were portioned out and added to the pot, filling the air with a delicious fragrance. The surrounding people took a deep breath almost in unison, and quite a few of them were already swallowing their saliva.
Hu Tao, her eyes bright and shiny, looked at Yang Zhen like a smitten fan, “Hurry, make that dish that promises a woman’s heart and body!”
Yang Zhen chuckled and said, “Let’s get started!”
As his voice faded, Yang Zhen abruptly closed his eyes, leaving the crowd of men, craning their necks in anticipation, utterly dumbfounded.
Even the two Spiritual Meal Masters standing nearby kept glancing over at him. What the hell?
Although it was highly likely that Yang Zhen was spouting nonsense, what if he was telling the truth?
If there truly was such a dish in the world and they could learn how to make it… As they entertained this thought, the mouths of several men started watering, and they quickly wiped their mouths, trying to maintain their serious demeanor as they watched Yang Zhen, still with his eyes closed.
In his past life, Yang Zhen was an unapologetic foodie. He personally researched every dish he could name, and his results were commendable.
In fact, Yang Zhen was not lying before; the dish he was about to make could indeed make young maidens willingly go to bed with him. It was the dish that was a no-go on dates, the one that was hard to swallow once ordered…the Hot and Spicy Soup!
The key to the Hot and Spicy Soup was the preparation of spicy sour sauce. In order to understand the recipe, Yang Zhen spent several months working at a Hot and Spicy Soup stall. After much coaxing, he finally acquired the recipe from the stall owner’s wife.
Yang Zhen examined his surroundings earlier and found that though standard ingredients for the spicy sour sauce weren’t available, he could replace them with magical ingredients at hand. Upon recalling the sauce recipe, he abruptly opened his eyes!
Bum, bum, bum, bum!
Gourmet God Yang Zhen started his performance with background music. The sight of his waving knife made everyone instinctively cringe back and gasp. The next moment, everyone was baffled.
Yang Zhen’s knife was flipping tirelessly, the celestial ingredients dancing in the air. It looked messy, not to mention any knife skills.
In the blink of an eye, there were heaps of chopped magical ingredients on Yang Zhen’s cutting board. It was chaotic and didn’t look appetizing at all. The sight failed to even arouse the slightest desire for food.
“How…how is this possible? Is there really such a way to cook?”
“What in the world is Yang Dingtian doing? This is not cooking, this is wasting magical ingredients! My god, he just chopped up such a precious Earth Elemental Explosive Chili?”
“This is outrageous. Although I’m not a Spiritual Meal Master, I can’t stand this. If the food he makes in this way is edible, I swear I’ll eat Yang Dingtian’s…”
Hu Tao looked at Yang Zhen with an incredulous expression. Even though she was frowning, she didn’t stop Yang Zhen. Instead, she was paying attention to every step Yang Zhen took and the magical ingredients he used, making sure to remember every detail.
Boom—!
Suddenly, Yang Zhen picked up a clay pot, threw the finely chopped celestial ingredients into it, and started cooking over a fire!
“What…what is that?”
“It looks decent, but can you eat it?”
“I don’t know, let’s keep watching. I want to see how Yang Dingtian will get the women here to hand over their bodies!”
Shush!
All the furious glances from the women were directed at the man, scaring him into covering his mouth and retreating back into the crowd.
