Young Song: The Hidden Sword God, Han Yi and Her Child Arrive at the Door.
Chapter 99 Jade Steps, a "Picnic" on the Immortal Island
"Walk!"
Su Changqing patted Kun's head.
The giant Kun carried everyone and slowly sailed into that mysterious fairy island.
A dialogue concerning destiny and the laws of heaven is about to unfold between the owner of Changqinglou and this immortal from the East Sea.
As for Su Changqing...
This was just a... rather unusual "home visit".
……
The giant Kun's massive body glided slowly in the azure waves, and the waves it stirred up were no longer the violent white, but a light blue with a faint fluorescent glow.
As we drew closer to the misty Penglai Island, the surrounding seawater became shockingly clear, allowing us to see colorful fish swimming among the coral reefs a thousand meters below the surface.
The air has changed.
It's no longer that slightly salty and bitter sea smell, but a refreshing fragrance that seems to cleanse the soul.
With each breath, you can feel a warm current flowing through your nasal cavity and into your limbs, making every pore open up and let out a silent cheer.
"The density of this spiritual energy..."
Xiao Se took a deep breath, and the slight fatigue he had shown due to the long journey vanished instantly. Even the hidden meridians in his body began to pulsate slightly under the spontaneous nourishment of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
"Is this the immortal mountain overseas? It truly lives up to its reputation."
Li Hanyi sighed softly. The Iron Horse and Ice River sword in her hand seemed to sense this pure swordsmanship opportunity and emitted a deep and melodious sword sound.
The giant Kun came to a steady stop on a shallow beach that was as clear as white jade.
The beach here is not ordinary yellow sand, but is composed of countless fragments of spiritual stones ground into powder by the waves, which shimmer like stars in the sunlight.
"We've arrived, get off the bus."
Su Changqing, holding Xiao Nuomi, casually stepped off the back of the hundreds-of-feet-tall Kun.
At that moment, both Lei Wujie and Wushuang held their breath in tension.
Although they knew their brother-in-law was powerful, even a master of the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm would have to gather their qi and use their most exquisite lightness skills to land steadily at that height.
However, Su Changqing acted as if he were walking on his own steps.
There was no fluctuation of true energy beneath his feet, but the instant he stepped into the air, a blue lotus flower formed from pure spiritual energy appeared out of thin air and steadily supported his feet.
May every step bring forth lotus blossoms!
Su Changqing, holding his daughter, slowly descended from the sky and landed on the spotless white jade beach.
"Wow! Daddy, there are so many beautiful stones here!"
As soon as Little Nuomi landed, she was attracted by the sparkling fragments of spirit stones. She broke free from Su Changqing's embrace and ran towards the colorful seashells with her short legs.
"Run slowly, don't fall."
Su Changqing gave his instructions with a smile, his eyes full of a loving father's affection.
Lei Wujie and the others also jumped down. Lei Wujie's foot landed on the sand, and he immediately exclaimed, "Wow, why is this sand warm? And... I feel like my soles are sucking in air!"
"That's spiritual energy entering the body."
Xiao Se rolled her eyes at him, annoyed.
"These sand fragments are priceless spiritual stones in the outside world. It's no wonder you're inhaling their scent when you step on them. But with your weak foundation, be careful not to overdo it and get a nosebleed."
Wushuang had no time to worry about that. He was directing his flying sword to transport down the fattest pieces of "tenderloin" cut from the deep-sea demon whale.
"Sir, the meat has been brought down. Shall we eat here?"
Wushuang wiped the sweat from his forehead. Although it was hard work, the thought of the taste of the demon whale meat made his mouth water uncontrollably.
"Right here."
Su Changqing looked around at the beautiful scenery and nodded in satisfaction. "Backed by a sacred mountain and facing the sea, where else can you find such a wonderful picnic spot?"
As he spoke, he snapped his fingers.
"Snapped!"
On the edge of the shallow beach, which was originally overgrown with weeds, several huge white jade rocks have moved on their own and combined to form a flat long table and several round stools.
Su Changqing untied the wine gourd from his waist and casually waved it, setting up a ball of golden flame in the center of the long table.
"Phoenix True Fire?!"
Lei Wujie and Wushuang's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
This supreme divine fire, with the power to burn the heavens and boil the seas, was actually used by Su Changqing for... a picnic?
"Making a fuss over nothing."
Ignoring their shock, Su Changqing took out an extremely exquisite set of kitchen utensils from his storage space—these were handcrafted by him during his spare time at Changqing Tower, and each piece contained the essence of the Dao.
"Wushuang, come here and slice the meat. Remember, each slice must be cut along the grain, and the thickness must not exceed three millimeters."
"Okay!"
Wushuang responded excitedly, this time without a hint of complaint.
Just kidding! On Penglai Immortal Island, the chef who roasted deep-sea demon whale meat with Phoenix True Fire was none other than Su Changqing, the number one god in the world. Even Mo Yi would have to wait in line for such an opportunity!
With a flick of his sword finger, the "Cloud Shuttle" sword transformed into a red afterimage, swiftly traversing the enormous whale meat.
Brush brush!
Under that sharp yet gentle sword energy, the demon whale's flesh was precisely dismembered.
Each piece of meat was crystal clear, with textures as clear as the finest agate, and even faintly exuded a fragrance from the depths of the ocean.
Su Changqing began to get busy.
Instead of using ordinary seasonings, he took out several exquisite little jade bottles from his pocket.
"This powder is made from millennia-old ice, used to lock in the freshness of the meat."
"This is a sauce made from Crimson Flame Fruit, used to neutralize the coldness in the Demon Whale's meat."
"And this..." Su Changqing took out a bottle that was entirely emerald green. "This is enlightenment tea powder given to you by the old Taoist Qi Tianchen. Sprinkle a little on it and it will refresh your mind."
As Su Changqing manipulated the flames, the golden phoenix fire gently enveloped the slices of meat.
Sizzle—!
A wonderfully beautiful popping sound of grease echoed across the quiet shallows.
An indescribable fragrance exploded in an instant!
The fragrance was so overpowering that it instantly covered an area of several miles in radius, and even directly dissipated the faint sandalwood scent that had lingered on the island for centuries.
"Gulp."
Lei Wujie swallowed hard, feeling his stomach churning and every cell in his body screaming, "I want to eat!"
Even Xiao Se, a noble young man who usually values appearances, couldn't help but move closer, his eyes fixed on the golden, oily slices of meat.
"Sir, is the meat... cooked?"
Xiao Se's voice trembled slightly.
"Don't rush, it's not quite done yet."
Su Changqing calmly turned the meat slices over, gently waving a folding fan in his hand, sending the aroma wafting into the distance.
Meanwhile, deep within the Penglai Immortal Island.
Inside that once tranquil and picturesque fairy cave.
Mo Yi, who was sitting cross-legged, lost in thought, suddenly twitched her nose slightly.
He frowned slightly and slowly opened his eyes, which were filled with vicissitudes and an eerie quality.
"What...is this smell?"
Mo Yi has lived for over a hundred years and has practiced abstinence from grains on this island for many years. He has long since severed the cycle of the five grains and is therefore nothing more than filth to him.
But now, this wafting fragrance is like a feather, constantly stimulating his taste buds that have been silent for a hundred years.
Moreover, the fragrance contained an extremely pure power fluctuation that even made him feel a tremor in his heart.
"Phoenix True Fire? And... the aura of the Kunpeng?"
Mo Yi stood up, her blue robes fluttering even without wind.
In the void behind him, celestial music faintly rang out, yet it carried a hint of madness.
"Could it be that an immortal has truly descended to earth?"
Mo Yi's figure flashed, turning into a wisp of green smoke and disappearing into the cave.
……
On the beach, Su Changqing's "picnic" was coming to an end.
"Dinner's ready!"
At Su Changqing's command, Lei Wujie and Wushuang rushed toward the long table like madmen.
"Mine! That biggest piece of tenderloin is mine!"
Lei Wujie unleashed a scorching fire technique, attempting to reach out and snatch it.
"Bullshit! I cut those, so I get to eat first!"
Wushuang manipulated his flying sword to block Lei Wujie's hand.
"Don't fight over it, there's enough for everyone."
Su Changqing shook his head helplessly, picked up the tenderest piece of meat, and placed it on the small plate in front of the glutinous rice noodles.
"Nuonuo, eat slowly, be careful it's hot."
"Thank you, Father!"
Little Nuomi picked up a small spoon, scooped out a big piece, and stuffed it into her mouth.
In that instant, the little guy's eyes widened suddenly, and he froze completely.
Then, her eyes lit up with happiness, and she clapped her little hands excitedly on the table: "Delicious! So delicious! A hundred times better than roast duck!"
Xiao Se took a bite, closed his eyes, and felt a thunderous energy explode in his throat, then turn into a torrent of heat, frantically repairing his damaged foundation.
At that moment, he even felt as if he had touched that ethereal barrier.
Li Hanyi also took a bite gracefully, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she looked at Su Changqing with tenderness.
This man always manages to bring her these unexpected surprises.
Just as everyone was immersed in the happiness of the delicious food.
"rustle……"
A soft footstep came from the woods.
Everyone froze, turning their gazes to the end of the white jade avenue.
A man dressed in green robes, with an almost otherworldly beauty, slowly emerged from the mist.
With each step he took, the white jade steps beneath his feet emitted a faint halo, and the cranes around him all bowed their heads, as if welcoming their king.
Mo Yi!
Immortal of the East Sea, Master of Penglai Island!
This powerful figure, who had been lonely for a hundred years, stopped in his tracks and stared blankly at the long table covered with roasted meat.
His Adam's apple twitched almost imperceptibly.
Su Changqing held a skewer of meat in his hand, looked up at Mo Yi, and showed no surprise whatsoever. Instead, he acted as if he had met an ordinary old neighbor.
"Oh, you're here?"
Su Changqing casually pointed to an empty seat next to him, "Haven't eaten yet? Want to sit down and have a bite? Perfect timing, the Magic Whale Pork Tenderloin is fresh out of the pot, cooked to perfection."
Mo Yi was stunned.
He had imagined countless scenarios for their reunion or meeting. It could be a duel in the Eastern Sea, a battle of wits between the heavens, or a life-or-death struggle.
But to his utter surprise, he was greeted with the words, "Sit down and have a couple of bites."
The ethereal aura that had been carefully cultivated, belonging to immortals, vanished in an instant due to the intense aroma of oil.
"You... are you Su Changqing, the one who caused such a commotion?"
Mo Yi spoke, her voice clear and cold, yet carrying a hint of barely perceptible hesitation.
"it's me."
Su Changqing picked up another piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, saying indistinctly,
"What, you want to collect protection money from me too? Let me make this clear beforehand, I've got my eye on this island and plan to turn it into a resort. If you'd like to invest, I can give you a VIP membership."
Mo Yi: "..."
Xiao Se: "..."
Lei Wujie: "Brother-in-law, you're awesome."
Mo Yi took a deep breath; he could sense the terror emanating from the man before him. That unfathomable aura, like an abyss, sent shivers down his spine, even for someone at the peak of the Divine Realm.
But what he cared about more was the bowl of meat.
That fragrance was constantly impacting his consciousness, causing his obsession, which was already on the verge of demonic possession, to waver slightly.
"Does this meat... contain the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth?" Mo Yi asked in confusion.
"What a load of rubbish, it's just about taste."
Su Changqing curled his lips, "Why think so much? Isn't the point of living to eat something hot? Come on, eat first, and then we can talk about your stupid thing about saving your sister."
boom!
Mo Yi felt as if struck by lightning.
The story of saving his sister was the deepest secret buried in his heart for a hundred years, and no one else in the world knew it except himself!
This man... actually saw through his cause and effect at a glance?!
"Who exactly are you?!" Mo Yi's expression became extremely solemn, and a terrifying pressure emanated from his body, stirring up the wind and clouds within a hundred miles.
"I'm your grandpa."
Su Changqing didn't even look up, still focused on feeding his daughter. "Don't blow air out here and get my soup cold. Sit down and eat. I'll count to three, and if you say another word, I'll send you to keep that whale company."
Looking into Su Changqing's calm eyes, and sensing the terrifying will that seemed to allow him to erase Penglai Immortal Island in an instant if he so desired, Mo Yi was completely calmed down.
He withdrew his imposing aura, slowly walked to the table, lifted his robe, and sat down somewhat stiffly.
"Then... I'll give it a try."
Mo Yi picked up her chopsticks and took a piece of meat.
The moment the meat entered his mouth, this "immortal" who had lived for a hundred years suddenly burst into tears.
"This taste... reminds me of the sweet potato my sister used to bake for me when I was little..."
Su Changqing sighed and poured Mo Yi a glass of wine.
"So, what gods or the Heavenly Way are nothing compared to this steaming hot earthly meal."
"Xiao Se, your illness is settled. This guy is indebted to you, so make him do your hard work for you later."
Xiao Se was completely dumbfounded when he saw Mo Yi, who was crying and eating meat at the same time.
Is this the overseas sword immortal that even Baili Dongjun fears?
Is this the madman who almost turned the martial arts world upside down?
That's it?!
Su Changqing smiled and looked at Xiao Nuomi, who was chasing butterflies in the yard.
"It's good to slow down the pace. The seafood on this fairy island should be enough for us to eat for months."
