Chapter 218

Chapter 217 Planning Ahead

“Have a meal!”

At Xu Changqing’s call, everyone quickly sat down around the dining table.

Because there were girls present, Hu Bugui and Zhao Ziyue were relatively restrained.

At first glance, the food on the table seemed to be just ordinary home-style dishes, but it didn’t seem so simple.

For example, this braised fish head made with spring water.

The surface is coated with a thick, bright red sauce, glistening with an oily sheen.

The broth was so thick it could almost be pulled into threads.

It is also garnished with white sesame seeds and chopped green onions.

Not to mention that it has excellent color, aroma, and taste.

The spiritual energy is extremely rich.

“Holy crap, Lao Xu, is this food?”

“Ordinary food can’t possibly have such a rich spiritual energy!”

“This is somewhat similar to the spiritual food I’ve had before!”

Everyone exclaimed in amazement at the table full of food.

Compared to the previous gathering to celebrate breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage, this feels completely different.

Xu Changqing took out a cup of top-grade spirit rice wine and poured one for each person. Then he smiled and said, “My cooking skills have indeed improved, but there is still a considerable gap between them and true spirit cuisine.”

At this moment, everyone was eager to get started.

Bai Ling’er, in particular, even had drool dripping from the corner of her mouth.

She deliberately chose to come over during lunchtime, just for this moment.

The food here is obviously better than my parents’ cooking.

Xu Changqing raised his glass first: “Cheers!”

“Cheers!” Everyone followed suit.

After the toast, we drank the finest Lingmi wine in one gulp.

Immediately afterwards, everyone eagerly picked up their chopsticks and began to eat.

Any dish you put in your mouth will immediately win you over with its taste and texture.

At this moment, everyone stopped holding back and began to feast.

However, the person who ate the fastest, or rather, the person with the fastest eating efficiency, was among the group.

It wasn’t Fatty Hu Bugui.

On the contrary, it was Bai Ling’er who looked more petite.

Goodness, he stuffed all sorts of food into his mouth without thinking twice.

His mouth was greasy.

They probably ate some chili peppers; it was so spicy that their eyes were watering, but they kept eating.

It just won’t stop.

Hu Bugui couldn’t help but swallow hard: “Fellow Daoist Bai, eat slowly, no one here will take it from you.”

Zhao Ziyue’s hands were trembling as he held the chopsticks: “I haven’t eaten a single bite of this fish head, and there’s only half left?”

Lin An was seeing Bai Ling’er for the first time, so he didn’t dare to speak and only showed a look of fear in his eyes.

Clearly, all three were astonished by the speed at which this person ate.

Bai Ling’er mumbled, “Mmm…it’s so delicious!”

Xu Changqing looked at the mountain of food piled up in the other person’s porcelain bowl and couldn’t help but laugh and cry.

If outsiders saw this, they would think Bai Ling’er had never eaten.

That’s a bit of an exaggeration.

However, as a chef, it’s very fulfilling to have people enjoy the food I make.

And so, a whole table full of food, which would normally take half an hour to finish eating.

In less than half an hour, the food was devoured by the group, leaving nothing behind.

Bai Ling’er patted her round belly and said happily, “I’m so full!”

Zhao Ziyue asked incredulously, “Just full?”

Bai Ling’er nodded: “Yes.”

Zhao Ziyue exchanged glances with those around him, then asked, “What about being stuffed?”

Bai Ling’er grinned, looking very confident and smug: “I’ve never been stuffed!”

hiss!

All that could be heard were gasps of shock.

Everyone’s eyes were filled with shock.

You will have a ten-minute break.

Bai Ling’er got up and swayed as she walked out the door.

Seeing this, Xu Changqing hurriedly followed.

Once outside, Bai Ling’er walked towards the first acre of spirit field on the right.

She was unaware that Zhao Ziyue had already secured the first three acres.

The water elemental power in the Qi Sea was activated.

The hand gestures for casting the Lesser Cloud Rain Technique were even shown.

Xu Changqing, who was following behind, changed his expression slightly. He hurriedly stepped forward, pressed down on her delicate shoulders, and forced her to turn 360 degrees on the spot, saying, “Not in front.”

Bai Ling’er asked blankly, “What just happened?”

Xu Changqing withdrew his hands and chuckled dryly, reminding him, “No…it’s nothing. Old Zhao has already irrigated the first three mu of spirit fields, so there’s only the fourth mu left.”

“Oh.” Bai Ling’er walked towards the fourth mu of spirit field, still confused.

Xu Changqing breathed a sigh of relief: “Goodness, it’s a good thing I came along, otherwise the first mu of spirit field would have been flooded.”

The reason he followed me out was actually related to the last time.

Previously, Bai Ling’er and Zhang Xue, driven by their competitive spirit, competed in the Lesser Cloud Rain Technique, nearly drowning the spiritual plants in their two acres of spiritual fields.

This time, although he hasn’t planted the spirit rice yet, he doesn’t want it to turn into a pond.

Fortunately, Bai Ling’er was fine afterwards.

He was performing the Minor Cloud Rain Technique normally.

Xu Changqing then turned around and went back into the house, relieved.

Taking this opportunity, he planned to discuss with Hu Bugui, Zhao Ziyue, and Lin An what would happen after the formal disciple competition.

Inside the room, Hu Bugui exclaimed in surprise, “This Fellow Daoist Bai is definitely not going to be simple in the future!”

Zhao Ziyue said gloatingly, “If someone were to take him home as a Daoist partner, the resources they would consume each year would be worth at least a thousand mid-grade spirit stones.”

Xu Changqing, who had just returned, overheard this and chuckled, “She’s fine, just a little slow-witted and a bit greedy.”

If you had to choose between Bai Ling’er and Wu Xi’er, Zhang Shixiong’s former Daoist partner.

He will definitely choose Bai Ling’er.

This person is simple-minded and doesn’t have many ulterior motives.

As long as I can eat my fill, I’ll be happy all day.

At this moment, Lin An reminded them, “Senior brothers, the formal disciple competition will begin after the start of spring.”

This chapter is not finished, please click the next page to continue reading!

Hu Bugui nodded: “I know, I was just planning to participate.”

Xu Changqing asked curiously, “Where’s Lao Zhao?”

Zhao Ziyue replied, “I’d like to try it too.”

Faced with the once-in-a-decade formal disciple competition, the two shared surprisingly similar thoughts.

Seeing that they all planned to participate in this formal disciple competition, Xu Changqing gave them a thumbs up: “Impressive, you guys are braver than me in this regard.”

Hu Bugui said in surprise, “Old Xu, you’re at least at the Foundation Establishment stage, why don’t you give it a try? If your ranking improves, you can get more resources from the Immortal Sect.”

Xu Changqing waved his hand and said, “I’m not interested in fighting and killing. I’d rather use that time to think about how to make money next.”

make money?

These words immediately piqued the interest of Hu Bugui and Zhao Ziyue.

Xu Changqing then got to the point: “Some time ago, I attended a gathering of obscure alchemists and learned some important news from there.”

Hu Bugui and Zhao Ziyue exchanged a glance and hurriedly asked, “What news?”

Xu Changqing said in a low voice, “After the formal disciple competition ends, a secret realm will be opened.”

Upon hearing the words “secret realm,” not only Hu Bugui and Zhao Ziyue, but even Lin An widened his eyes, revealing an incredulous look.

Xu Changqing continued, “It’s called the Guixu Secret Realm, and it opens once every 101 years. This time, it will open right after our formal disciple competition ends.”

Hu Bugui said excitedly, “Now that we know this news in advance, we might be able to take this opportunity to make a fortune.”

Zhao Ziyue frowned: “With our limited abilities, even if we knew the opening time of the secret realm in advance, what could we do?”

Xu Changqing asked with a half-smile, “Do you… know about roasted nuts?”
