Junior Sister is too competitive, she drastically alters the Joyful Union Sect.

Chapter 214 Why don't he give it a try too?
Looking at the dishes on the table, Chi Guyuan was somewhat curious.

Is it really that bad?

"Can I try some?" Tantai Ci looked at the dishes that looked quite appetizing and couldn't help but wonder how bad they could taste.

“…” Shen Youqing coughed lightly, “Okay.”

Tantai Ci picked up the clean chopsticks that were placed aside and began to eat.

……

When Xie Changting and Xie Changyan arrived, they saw Fifth Lord, Tantai Ci, and Chi Guyuan squatting in a corner rinsing their mouths.

Seeing his third junior brother's unpleasant expression, Xie Changyan asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

"It's alright, he's still alive," Chi Guyuan's somewhat hoarse voice rang out.

The person is indeed still alive, but doesn't look well.

"Shen Youqing, all I can say is that everyone has their own expertise. You should stick to drawing talismans." Chi Guyuan's voice was a little hoarse after being poisoned.

"Oh," Shen Youqing replied somewhat unconvinced.

Seeing that Shen Youqing was still wearing her apron, Xie Changting seemed to understand something. Looking at the reasonably presented dishes on the table, he asked warmly, "Did Miss Shen make these?"

Shen Youqing responded.

Seeing their ravaged appearance, Xie Changting and Xie Changyan curiously tried it.

Then they stopped being curious.

"I can only say that these ingredients died with their eyes wide open in disbelief." Fifth Lord stood up, his voice a little hoarse.

If it wasn't Young Master Yue who made the request, he would definitely suspect that Shen Youqing was doing it on purpose.

Xiao Youqi took a piece of dried meat from Xiao Ke and ate it to suppress the strange taste.

Xiao Ke generously took out a lot of dried meat and let them all take some to eat to quench their thirst.

"Why are they all here?"

Shen Xingzhi peeked out from the courtyard gate, greeted them, and then came in.

……

The number of people in the hospital increased, and so did the number of victims.

Shen Youqing stood quietly to the side, eating dried meat.

"That's good. You can completely poison the five sect leaders by yourself." Wei Ningguang gave his sincere evaluation.

“…” Shen Youqing’s lips twitched slightly, “You didn’t let me off the hook either.”

Wei Ningguang spoke in a hoarse voice, "Why don't you try fasting?"

Fasting is better than poisoning yourself!
Shen Youqing pointed at Xiao Ke, "Senior brother's cooking is delicious."

really?
Wei Ningguang was skeptical.

After taking away Shen Youqing's several well-presented dishes, Xiao Ke brought out the food he had prepared.

The rich and enticing aroma of food instantly filled everyone's noses.

Fortunately, Xiao Ke made a lot this time, and after everyone had a taste, there was still quite a bit left over.

“Those chickens, ducks and geese died a worthy death.” Shen Quelin handed the bowl to Shen Youqing, asking her to serve him some more Buddha Jumps Over the Wall soup.

Shen Youqing took it and ladled out a large spoonful for him.

A group of people whose sense of taste had been severely damaged found solace in this.

"Fellow Daoist Xiao, your cooking skills are truly amazing!" Wei Ningguang exclaimed sincerely, giving Xiao Ke a thumbs-up in praise.

Xiao Ke nodded slightly, which was considered an agreement.

"This dish is perfect in color, aroma, and taste, and it has no unpleasant smell. Fellow Daoist Xiao has an exceptional talent in the culinary arts." Jiang Chenying's cold voice made no attempt to hide his praise.

Xiao Ke's expression remained cold and aloof. He nodded slightly when he heard the praise, showing neither arrogance nor impatience.

Qi Bumian suddenly realized and said, "No wonder it's always Fellow Daoist Xiao who does the cooking."

Thankfully, Xiao Ke was the one who was cooking, otherwise, with Shen Youqing's cooking skills, he probably would have died long ago.

Shen Youqing, standing to the side, lowered his head and silently ate his rice.

She absolutely must learn to cook!

When Meng Qinian arrived, he saw a group of people eating in the courtyard, and the atmosphere was relaxed and harmonious.

The relationships between the various lineages were not very good, as they were all in a competitive relationship.

This situation left him somewhat bewildered. Seeing that they were about to put down their bowls and chopsticks to greet him, Meng Qinian waved his hand, indicating that they should not.

"Shen Qiuluo has successfully formed her core." Meng Qinian first announced the news, then added, "Patriarch Shen will arrive shortly."

The relaxed and harmonious atmosphere in the courtyard vanished instantly.

Almost everyone's eyes were on Shen Youqing.

Seeing Shen Youqing intently eating, everyone in the courtyard gradually looked away.

Shen Quelin seemed not to hear, and continued drinking his soup.

Xiao Ke's cooking skills are truly exceptional!
Seeing this, Shen Xingzhi had no choice but to put down her chopsticks and bow to Meng Qinian, "Do you need us to go?"

"Do as you please." With that, Meng Qinian left.

After Meng Qinian left, the atmosphere in the courtyard returned to its previous relaxed and harmonious state.

They completely forgot about Shen Qiuluo's Core Formation.

Xiao Ke picked up his chopsticks, took a piece of green vegetable, and placed it in Shen Youqing's bowl.

Shen Youqing didn't react much and just ate the vegetables.

Shen Quelin put down his chopsticks and, after thinking for a moment, said, "When I came back yesterday, I think I saw Shen Youqing's name on the notice board."

"She's been hanging here for a month," Xie Changyan's icy voice rang out.

Shen Quelin looked at Shen Youqing, who had an honest and unassuming appearance, and gave her a thumbs up.

Jiang Chenying and the others all looked at Shen Youqing.

What did she do?
Seeing the questioning looks from his fellow disciples, Xie Changyan coldly replied, "The herb field and spirit beasts are losing a few every three to five days."

The four fellow disciples: ...

Didn't the disciples over at the herb field beat up Shen Youqing?
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, aren't you going to stop him?" Shen Xingzhi asked curiously.

Wei Ningguang glanced at the pot of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall on the table and said to Shen Xingzhi, "One of you go to steal the spirit beast, and the other will be in charge of cooking it."

In a sense, the two of them were in cahoots.

Shen Xingzhi choked for a moment.

"Since she didn't injure any disciples or damage any spiritual plants, the punishment wasn't too severe," Xie Changyan said coldly. "On the contrary, because of the severe punishment, her talisman-drawing speed has increased considerably."

Chi Guyuan looked at Shen Youqing, and a thought struck him.

Can it still be like this?
Why don't he give it a try too?
Lin Youran looked her junior sister up and down. "Junior sister, you didn't deliberately get punished to increase your talisman-drawing speed, did you?"

To be honest, given my junior sister's competitive nature, this doesn't seem like something she would do.

Shen Youqing waved his hand, "I'm just greedy."

Lin Youran chuckled, her gentle eyes filled with helplessness and doting affection.

Shen Youqing's straightforward answer drew continuous laughter from the courtyard.

After she finished eating, Chu Jianyan took her away to draw talismans.

Seeing Shen Youqing's significantly improved talisman-drawing speed, Chu Jianyan and the others shamelessly became tempted.

"Why don't we go too?" Chi Guyuan suggested first.

The three people next to him nodded without hesitation.

Jiang Chenying coughed.

The third junior brother and the other three were practically defying the rules!

Shen Quelin stood beside Yue Xunzhu and whispered, "See, isn't this just being led astray?"

There's a saying that goes, "One who stays near vermilion gets stained red, and one who stays near ink gets stained black." It's impossible for them not to be corrupted by Shen Youqing, since they're hanging out with him.

"Not really, after all, they were doing it for cultivation, while Jinjin was just greedy," Yue Xunzhu said in a low voice.

Shen Quelin immediately smiled.

The next second, he couldn't laugh anymore after taking two punches.

This time, it was Shen Youqing's turn to smile.

The atmosphere here is relaxed, but the atmosphere in the main hall is more serious.

Shen Qiuluo, who had successfully survived the tribulation, stood in the center of the hall.

"Qiu Luo has successfully formed her core, and the Shen family plans to hold a banquet for her." Shen Lin stated his thoughts, looking at Shen Qiu Luo with pride in his eyes.

Standing in the center of the hall, Shen Qiuluo showed no signs of being disheveled. She stood upright, her expression calm and composed, neither arrogant nor spoiled.
