Food gives me an entry, I will be invincible if I stay alive

Chapter 404, Second Question

Naming a mere spiritual drink is actually not a big deal.

Chen Xu didn't care at all.

But everyone present seemed to regard this matter as an extremely important one.

All eyes were on Chen Xu, as if they were waiting for his judgment.

But at that moment, a stuttering voice suddenly rang out:

"Seniors, this, this spiritual drink... Senior Sister Ye, Senior Brother Zhou, Uncle Ge, have you all thought about it?"
This spiritual drink, Senior Brother Chen, already had a name, didn't it?"

Hey!
A word to awaken the dreamer.

Yes, Chen Xu made the spiritual drink on the spot, but that doesn't mean it was the first time he had made such a spiritual drink.

Judging from his movements just now, which were so skillful and fluid, Chen Xu must have done this a thousand times before.
If it has been done a thousand times, wouldn't the name already exist?

Several people rushed to name it, which seemed to overshadow the main subject.

Ge Xing blushed.

Ye Ningzhen wasn't embarrassed, but she could no longer maintain her previous feigned serious expression, and a smile quickly bloomed on her face as she said:

"It was our oversight that led us to be so overjoyed by the amazing spiritual drink that we lost our sense of proportion."

Junior Brother Chen, please don't be offended, please don't be offended.

Chen Xu replied, "It's alright, this thing... I actually haven't named it yet."

After all, others have suspected him of doing it a thousand times over.

But only he knew that this was actually the first time he had ever made a spiritual drink with this formula.

Therefore, the spiritual drink before us truly has no name.

Seeing that their eyes lit up again, Chen Xu continued:
"In any case, you may drink this cup to your heart's content first, and after you have tasted its flavor, it is not too late to try to name it."

This is the first time I've made this, and I'm having trouble naming it yet.

I would be extremely grateful if you could offer your assistance.

what?
Listen carefully to what he said; for a moment, everyone's attention was focused on Chen Xu's words, "This is the first time I've made this."

The speculation that Chen Xu had made this spiritual drink "hundreds of times" was just conjecture!

Is this really his first time doing this?

Zhou Hou was stunned.

Ye Ningzhen's eyes were bright, and her eyebrows seemed to be about to dance.

Ge Xing was initially surprised but then delighted. Unable to contain himself any longer, he reached out and made a move from a distance.

Immediately, a glass cup fell into his hand.

At this moment, Chen Xu had just said:
"This is the first time I've ever seen this Ice Crystal Fruit. I don't know where it comes from or how to buy it."

Yes, Chen Xu came from a small rural town outside the Immortal City.

How could he easily come into contact with a spiritual fruit like the Ice Crystal Fruit while he was outside?

Although the Ice Crystal Fruit is only a ninth-grade spiritual fruit, it is not a common item.

It's difficult to obtain easily, at least outside of the Immortal City.

Ge Xing held a glass cup, raised it, and drank.

Beside her, Ye Ningzhen quickly picked up a cup of spiritual drink and did the same.

She had wanted to drink it for a long time.

Chen Xu raised his hand and pushed a cup into Ji Yang's hand out of thin air.

Overjoyed, he quickly swallowed and carefully drank it.

Only Zhou Hou, Zhou Hou also had to drink the spiritual liquid in the cup.

But his movements were far too slow—

Perhaps it's not appropriate to say he was slow, but rather that Ge Xing's movements were too fast.

Just as Zhou Hou's lips were about to touch the edge of the glass cup, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his palm.

His heart skipped a beat, and he felt as if he had been instantly crushed by an incredibly heavy mountain.

Zhou Hou shouted, "Ah..."

He bent over and couldn't straighten up.

His hand suddenly felt empty. His glass lamp—his glass lamp—had been taken away!

The one who took away his glass lamp was Elder Ge Xing.

Ge Xing laughed heartily and said loudly, "Zhou Hou, when you eat, you always eat like a cow chewing on a peony, you don't know how to appreciate it."

This cup of spiritual drink, why don't I take it with me and offer it to you, Master Hong, for your evaluation?

"Zhou Hou, what do you say about this?"

Zhou Hou was bent over, and he was about to cry.

But when Ge Xing mentioned Uncle Hong, he was speechless for a moment.

Uncle Hong is the only remaining sixth-grade spirit chef in the sect.

Ge Xing wanted to take Chen Xu's spiritual drink to Uncle Hong for him to taste, which was clearly an attempt to give Chen Xu a boost.

What else is there to say about Zhou Hou?

Could he possibly say, "Don't steal my spiritual drink, don't give it to Uncle Hong"?

But, but he wasn't the only one present who had the spiritual drink, so why did Uncle Ge insist on snatching the cup from his hand?
Zhou Hou wanted to cry but had no tears...

There's no other way; he'd better just steal it.

Zhou Hou bent over, revealing a smile that looked more like a grimace: "Uncle-Master Ge, please take it. I... I... this is what I should do."

The spiritual drink was prepared by Senior Brother Chen; I am merely offering it as a token of my appreciation.

Ge Xing burst into laughter.

He patted Zhou Hou on the shoulder, picked up the spiritual drink in his hand, and turned to leave.

Reaching the center of the hall, he turned back and asked, "By the way, what should this spiritual drink be named again?"

This time, Ye Ning was truly savoring the spiritual drink, a joyful, contented, and refreshing smile appearing on her face.

The spiritual drink tasted like the first melting of ice and snow.

It wasn't sweet at first, but it had a cool and refreshing taste that melted in your mouth.

That coolness can penetrate directly into one's soul.

As she drank it, Ye Ningzhen felt as if her internal organs had been cleansed.

What's amazing is that although this spiritual drink is extremely cold, once it enters the stomach, a warm feeling arises from the abdomen.

The spiritual energy then slowly spread.

It is cool but not icy, and refreshing but not harmful.

Ye Ningzhen felt a wonderful sensation, like a parched person suddenly receiving sweet rain, so much so that she was momentarily captivated and didn't think to speak at that moment.

On the contrary, Ji Yang, who had been rather inconspicuous, took a few sips of the spiritual liquid in his cup and suddenly blurted out:
"What a wonderful drink! It's just like spring breeze melting snow. How about we call it the Spring Breeze Melting Snow Drink?"

Chen Xu smiled and said, "Wonderful! Not bad, a good name."

It should be called "Spring Breeze Melting Snow Drink."

Huh, he actually adopted the name Ji Yang casually came up with?
Among the few people present, Zhou Hou was still bent over with a bitter face, as if he were being pressed down by an invisible mountain.

But at this moment, Zhou Hou's gaze fell on Ji Yang.

Ye Ningzhen, who was lost in thought, also came back to her senses and turned her gaze to Ji Yang.

The same applies to Ge Xing.

At this moment, all three members of the Divine Mechanism Sect truly began to take Ji Yang seriously.

This little tagalong that Chen Xu brought along actually held such a high position in Chen Xu's eyes.

Yes, Chen Xufang adopted the name Ji Yang chose not only because it was fitting, but more importantly because he valued Ji Yang.

Or rather, he was trying to convey to everyone that he valued Ji Yang highly.

In this way, anyone present who wasn't a fool would naturally come to realize Ji Yang's existence again.

At Shenji Sect, Chen Xu was a newcomer with no connections whatsoever.

How can we not first establish our own people around us?

Ge Xing gave Ji Yang a deep look and also praised him:
"Excellent, a good name. Spring Breeze Melts Snow Drink dispels worries, calms the mind, and refreshes the soul. This spiritual drink deserves such a fine name."

He turned and took a few more steps, but as he approached the lobby entrance, he suddenly turned back and said:
"By the way, Junior Nephew Chen, you haven't answered the second question yet."
