Chapter 164: Chapter 163: Your Seek Dao Sect is Bullying Too Much!_1
After Yun Zhi became the Acting Sect Master, she followed tradition by visiting the Four Great Immortal Sects and brought a special gift – she told everyone that Daoist Buyu had gone into seclusion, and that she was now in charge of the Seek Dao Sect.
When the Four Great Immortal Sects heard this news, they were overjoyed, knowing they wouldn’t have to deal with the mad Daoist any longer.
Moreover, with Yun Zhi as the Acting Sect Master, it implied that she would not participate in the disciples’ activities.
The Five Great Immortal Sects held non-scheduled activities for their disciples, allowing them to explore the Relic Blessed Cave. However, since Yun zhi’s grand appearance, these activities had become pointless, causing great embarrassment for the other Four Great Immortal Sects – it seemed more worthwhile to simply give the rewards directly to Yun Zhi, and in turn, save time.
Upon seeing the captivating Shangguan Yu, the Second Elder’s eyes were fixated on her.
Even though Shangguan Yu had once rejected him, he still couldn’t forget the pure and beautiful Shangguan Yu.
Noticing the Second Elder staring intently at Shangguan Yu, Qiu Jin’an stepped in between, blocking the elder’s view with a grim expression: “When will the competition start?”
The Grand Elder responded: “According to the plan, we will start with the opening ceremony, followed by a meal, and then the competition.” Surprisingly organized, Qiu Jin’an thought, Yun Zhi’s arrangement was far better than that chaotic Daoist Buyu’s.
During his last visit to the Seek Dao Sect, Daoist Buyu had greeted him with a hug around the neck, suggesting, ‘Brother, let’s go, I’ll take you to the brothel, my treat.’
Qiu Jin’an immediately shoved Daoist Buyu aside.
This wasn’t something to be said outright! Shangguan Yu was watching him!
Hmm? Where’s the young man who understands ancient civilization?”
Qiu Jin’an wanted to discuss some ancient secrets with Lu Yang, such as how the last Great Power, who had completed Verbal Spell, died, or whether the Ymgtian Immortal was born on a particularly splendid day, hence his name…
The Grand Elder explained: “He’s off to cook.”
“Oh.” Qiu Jin’an didn’t think much of it.
On the podium, the disciples of the Seek Dao Sect and the Five Elements Sect stood together, listening to the speeches of the higher-ups.
Soon, they all fell asleep.
Grand Elder read from a script prepared by Lu Yang: “In order to implement the policy of the Five Great Immortal Sects joining hands, to promote friendly exchanges between the Seek Dao Sect and the Five Elements Sect, to deeply understand the bond between the Five Great Immortal Sects, to lay a solid foundation, to achieve win-win results, I would like to discuss five points revolving around the theme of this exchange.”
First, implementing the policy of the Five Great Immortal Sects joining hands is required by history and present day. With the coming of the Great Era, ancient cultivators are coming back to life. Faced with the grave situation and unpredictable challenges in the Central Continent, the Five Great Immortal Sects should, and must, unite…”
Qiu Jin’an was then taken aback, he had expected some differences from the previous speech, but these differences still surprised him.
The previous time, Daoist Buyu had only said two sentences: Welcome Five Elements Sect, feel free to interact.
When it was Qiu Jin’an’s turn to speak, he cleared his throat and announced: “In this sunny season when all things are reviving, the Five Elements Sect is honored to visit the Seek Dao Sect. Witnessing the most advanced thoughts and theories in the Cultivation World, we have gained a lot of insight…”
After the two rounds of speeches, scattered applause echoed from below the stage. As the Eighth Elder said, it was as never-ending as “incessant urination”.
On stage, the leaders of both sides shook hands.
“Sect Leader Qiu, please give us your guidance in this exchange activity.”
Grand Elder, you’re too kind. We ask for your leniency from the Seek Dao Sect.”
Both Grand Elder and Qiu Jin’an wore kind smiles on their faces, completely hiding their spiritual sense conversation from others.
“Qiu Jin’an, return to your Five Elements Sect. We of Seek Dao Sect don’t welcome you. Look at your hypocritical appearance. Have you forgotten how we, the nine sons of Seek Dao Sect, beat you up?”
“Nine of you against me alone, your Seek Dao Sect has no dignity. You think I’m eager to come to your Sect? A gathering of monsters and fiends, just wait and see me exorcise you demons, and spread the news of my victory throughout the Cultivation World!”
In reality, they were smiling sincerely at each other.
“Sect Leader Qiu, shall we go for a meal?”
Haha, I ve heard that the food at Seek Dao Sect is second to none, and today I should feast my eyes.”
As the group walked to the dining hall, Qiu Jin’an saw disciples using fried dough sticks to hammer nails, sparking a dazzling display of sparks.
He saw disciples toss flatbreads into the air, which instantly enlarged, blocking out the sun.
He saw disciples making egg soup, in a silver pot that became pitch black in an instant and gradually melted away the contents into a drop of green liquid.
In some way, his eyes were certainly opened.
Is Seek Dao Sect going to make me eat this stuff?
Qiu Jin’an was nervous, feeling that he didn’t deserve this punishment.
Eventually, the group arrived at an extremely luxurious restaurant, filled with mouthwatering smells. The dishes before Qiu Jin’an were full of color, aroma, and taste.
“It looks like I wrongly blamed the Seek Dao Sect.” Qiu Jin’an breathed a sigh of relief.
Fairy Eternity, wearing a white apron and a high hat, looked quite professional.
She introduced the dishes one by one: “Stewed tofu. Prepared from the top-notch spine meat of an Ice Zone Elephant, the tofu is made from the morning dew condensed on the medicinal herbs from our garden. I combined the two ingredients using an ancient secret method and achieved an astonishing effect.”
Fairy Eternity wanted to see the customer’s reactions: “Would you like a taste?”
Qiu Jin’an lifted the lid from the plate, and a golden light shot skyward, almost blinding him. Simultaneously, the sounds of celestial music filled his ears.
Qiu Jin an turned his head and saw a group of people playing music nearby. “What is this all about?”
“It’s a performance, to create some ambience,” Fairy Eternity explained.
Without giving it another thought, Qiu Jin’an picked up the chopsticks, snagged a piece of tofu, and was just about to put it in his mouth when he saw smoke sizzle from where chopstick and tofu made contact, quickly melting away.
With a plop, the tofu fell back onto the plate.
Qiu Jin’an blinked his eyes, wondering if he was hallucinating.
Fairy Eternity reminded him from the side: “You better eat quickly before the stewed tofu burns a hole through the plate and table.”
Qiu Jin’an suppressed the urge to flip the table and decided to try another dish.
He lifted the lid off a small teacup revealing a creamy white fish soup with two strands of green leafy vegetables floating on top, making it look even more delicious.
Fairy Eternity explained: “Our sect’s Taihu lake has a kind of fish called ‘Emerald Water Fish’, a rare species from ancient times. Once out of the water, it must be cooked immediately. If allowed to sit for more than three hours, it will rot. I captured one from the lake at dawn and cooked it with great care, preserving as much freshness and liveliness as possible in the dish. Why don’t you give it a try?”
Then Qiu Jin’an saw a small green fish swimming in the soup, occasionally leaping out before plunging back in, causing ripples on the surface. A drop of soup even splashed onto his face.
“…Is this fish a bit too lively?”
Qiu Jin’an once again suppressed the urge to flip the table.
Fairy Eternity said: “The fish you see isn’t alive. It’s a replica I crafted using the skeleton of the Emerald Water Fish with some ancient technique. Just poke it with your spoon, and it will disintegrate.”
Qiu Jin an carefully poked the fish with his spoon, and sure enough, it disintegrated into the soup, enhancing the richness of the white soup.
It turns out I misunderstood her, Qiu Jin’an thought.
He took a small sip and immediately spat it out: “It’s so salty! How much salt did you put?!”
Fairy Eternity thought seriously: “About twenty seconds.”
Qiu Jin an slammed his hands on the table, stood up abruptly, and roared: “You Seek Dao Sect have really gone too far!”
