Chapter 35 Public Outrage
"Heh, it's just vegetables. I've eaten spiritual fruits from the immortal realm before. Do you think this vegetable can compare to those fruits?" Lou Ye picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, not believing it. He had only chewed it a couple of times when he froze, staring at the plate of meat in disbelief.

"No, how could that be? Even spirit beasts lose some of their spiritual energy after cooking, so it's impossible for them to reach this concentration." Lou Ye swallowed the meat and said in disbelief, adding that the taste was many times more delicious than anything he had ever eaten in the mortal world.

The elder laughed smugly: "This is something we prepared carefully, isn't it great?"

Seeing Lou Ye's performance, everyone else looked at the dishes in front of them with curiosity, and once they started eating, they couldn't stop.

Half an hour later, everyone had eaten and drunk their fill. Those with bags were still sitting upright, while those without bags simply hugged their stomachs and leaned back in their chairs.

"Elder, the dishes this time are indeed excellent. That cabbage, although it looks like it's just boiled in water, the broth is actually a rich stock. It must have taken a lot of effort to get such a clear broth." The Heavenly Emperor was particularly fond of the boiled cabbage. People in the Immortal Realm prefer light flavors, and this boiled cabbage really appealed to him. He wished he had brought the God of Cookery with him so he could learn how to make it. This is what they eat! In the Immortal Realm, it tastes the same every day, and he's really had enough of it.

The Heavenly Emperor looked at the others, guessing they were thinking similar things to him.

"That's right, Elder, why not introduce him to us? Let us see what kind of genius can make food so delicious and contain so much spiritual energy." Lou Ye's initial impatience had disappeared. Why not recruit such a talent back to the Netherworld?

The elder chuckled and said, "It's not that I don't want to introduce you, it's just that this chef isn't in Qingqiu."

"What does the Grand Elder mean by this? These dishes are clearly freshly cooked. Why isn't the chef in Qingqiu? Perhaps the Grand Elder is afraid we'll poach such a talented person, and this is just an excuse." Demon Lord Chongming looked at the Grand Elder with a meaningful gaze. Although the dishes contained spiritual energy, for some reason, after he ate them, the spiritual energy automatically converted into demonic energy, which naturally piqued his curiosity.

Seeing that he couldn't deny it, the elder finally told the truth, but he concealed the fact that it was Fox Charm who made the deal with the other world, only saying that he had obtained the opportunity to make a deal with the other world by chance.

Upon hearing this, everyone was even more curious than ever, and kept asking questions about the other world.

Mo Qianxun's arrival at the research institute of the base instantly attracted a large crowd of onlookers.

"Chihiro, did you get something good again? Let me see it."

"Qianxun, Old Sun already has enough research materials. When are you going to give me some more? We only have a few Nine Nether Grasses to study, it's not enough to go around." Professor Wang looked at Mo Qianxun with a pitiful expression. These past few days, seeing the extra materials in Old Sun's lab, he was so jealous that he wanted to scream.

“That’s why we’re so in sync.” Mo Qianxun pulled a burlap sack from her Qiankun bag. “Professor Wang, this should be enough for you.”

Professor Wang excitedly took the sack: "What's inside?" He opened it, glanced at it, and immediately closed the sack. He looked at Mo Qianxun with a smile that made his eyes crinkle.

"So many! Chihiro must have worked so hard."

"Professor Wang, could you please study whether the grass here can be grown here? This is related to the future food of the Pegasus, so we can't be careless," Mo Qianxun kindly reminded him.

The entire hall fell silent instantly. Professor Wang's smile froze on his face as he stared at her in disbelief: "What? This is for Pegasus?"

"Ah, a celestial horse is a celestial horse after all. We mortal grasses probably can't grow it well. So I specially brought back some spiritual herbs that it likes from the cultivation world to see if we can plant them on a large scale. If we can, that would be the best. If not, I can only keep gathering them."

"Spiritual herb. Don't worry, leave it to me." Heh heh, since it's called a spiritual herb, it must have other uses, right? He'll keep half for research and the other half for planting. There's plenty here anyway, a win-win situation. Professor Sun was conducting research on the Blood-Eyed Rabbit when he suddenly heard that Mo Qianxun had arrived at the research institute. He quickly put down his research and rushed over. Usually, others would deliver it; today she came personally. Could it be that she had something good that required her personal escort?
Mo Qianxun: You flatter me too much. I just came here to take a casual look.

When Professor Sun arrived, he saw Mo Qianxun surrounded by a group of doctors in white coats. Afraid of missing something, he quickly squeezed in. After he successfully squeezed in, his hair and clothes were a mess, as if he had been robbed.

As soon as he entered the crowd, his eyes immediately locked onto the little fox in Mo Qianxun's arms.

"Chihiro, did you bring this little fox here for research as well?" Professor Sun rubbed his hands together, looking at the little fox.

The little fox bristled instantly under Professor Sun's gaze, shrinking into Mo Qianxun's arms while trembling.

"Professor Sun, you've misunderstood. This is my pet, not something I use for experiments," Mo Qianxun said, patting the little fox on the back reassuringly.

Professor Sun examined the little fox carefully: "This shouldn't be from our world, I've never seen a fox like this before."

"It's a mutated fire fox that I brought back from the magical world; I keep it as a pet."

"Oh, I see. Um, can I have a vial of its blood?" A new species, I want to study it.

Mo Qianxun looked at the little guy in her arms, who was the size of a palm and very thin, and still politely declined: "It is too weak right now, and probably doesn't have much blood. Let's wait until it grows up or gets better before we draw a tube for you."

Professor Sun wasn't annoyed by the rejection. He realized he had been a bit too hasty. In the little fox's current state, if he used his tube, the little guy would be on his way to the Western Paradise.

Chen Min handed Professor Sun a bag: "Professor Sun, these are the materials I brought back today."

Professor Sun excitedly took the document, opened it, and saw that it was full of new materials he had never seen before. He immediately beamed with joy: "Wow, the update speed is simply too fast! We haven't even finished studying the materials that were sent last time, and here comes again. It seems we'll be busy for a while longer." He sounded like he was complaining about the amount of work, but his expression was definitely one hundred percent showing off.

Other professors: Damn, my hands are itching to punch someone.

"Hmph, what's the use of having a lot of materials if you still can't research anything? We've made a major breakthrough in our research on the Nine Nether Grass." Professor Wang felt a bit uncomfortable seeing Professor Sun showing off, so he joined in the boasting.

Professors who have neither made any breakthroughs nor produced any research materials: Don't stop me, let me beat them both to death.

Thank you, strawberry soda!
