Chef God of the Wuxia and Fantasy World

Ling Chi smiled broadly: "You actually managed to tell that I'm not good-looking. You really are Huang Yaoshi, your eyes are truly sharp."

"???"

Ling Chi's sudden flirtatious behavior left Huang Yaoshi completely bewildered.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that Huang Yaoshi didn't speak, Ling Chi said, "Continue!"

“Uh, I mean, if it were Brother Ling, I could let Chaofeng marry you,” Huang Yaoshi said.

Upon hearing this, Mei Chaofeng lowered her head, her ears turning red. Chen Xuanfeng also lowered his head, but clenched his fists, clearly in pain.

"In that case," Ling Chi said with a smile, "when I leave, let Mei Chaofeng come with me!"

Huang Yaoshi opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed, "Alright!"

Turning his head to look at Mei Chaofeng, whose head was lowered but whose ears were very red, Huang Yaoshi said, "Chaofeng, go pack your luggage. After Brother Ling finishes his business on Peach Blossom Island, you can leave the island with him!"

"Yes, Master." Mei Chaofeng suddenly knelt down and said, "I will not be able to fulfill my filial duties to you in the future. Please take good care of yourself."

Huang Yaoshi sighed and said, "Good child, get up!"

After Mei Chaofeng got up, Huang Yaoshi said, "After you marry into the Ling family, remember to fulfill your duties as a wife. Be virtuous and gentle, support your husband and raise your children. Do not be willful or reckless."

"Yes, Master."

As Huang Yaoshi was giving instructions to Mei Chaofeng, Shuang'er secretly tugged at Ling Chi's clothes and whispered, "Brother, what should we do?"

"Let Huang Yaoshi handle it himself; I'm just taking the blame for him," Ling Chi said calmly.

Shuang'er: "..."

……

"Senior sister, I can't bear to part with you!" After Huang Yaoshi finished giving his instructions, Mei Chaofeng was about to go back to her room to pack her luggage when Feng Mofeng couldn't hold back anymore and cried, "If you leave, there will be no one to catch fireflies with me anymore."

"Mofeng, don't be like this." Qu Lingfeng and other senior brothers tried to comfort him. Mei Chaofeng also comforted him sadly: "Junior brother, even if your senior sister is gone, you still have your senior brother to accompany you, and you also have your master's wife. Your master's wife will also accompany you."

"Master's wife?" Ling Chi turned to look at Huang Yaoshi: "Huang Yaoshi, you're married?"

"..." Huang Yaoshi nodded somewhat awkwardly.

"Hey," Ling Chi laughed, "Now that you're married, you'd better treat her well and not be a heartless and unfaithful man."

"Hmph!" Huang Yaoshi's face was very ugly: "I am not that kind of person."

“Yes, you’re not.” Ling Chi nodded. “Otherwise, why would you marry Mei Chaofeng to me?”

"..." Huang Yaoshi was so heartbroken that he could not breathe.

Superwind! My Superwind!

……

"Waaaaah, Senior Sister..."

Feng Mofeng's crying grew louder and louder, making Ling Chi frown: Why is this child getting more and more excited the more we try to comfort him?

“Since you don’t want to be separated from your senior sister, let’s go together!” Ling Chi stepped forward, pointed at Feng Mofeng, and said, “You go pack your things too, and we’ll leave the island together.”

"..."

Upon hearing this, Feng Mofeng immediately stopped crying, but Huang Yaoshi was utterly astonished: "Brother Ling, you..."

"What can we do?" Ling Chi said helplessly, "Feng Mofeng is reluctant to part with his senior sister and keeps crying. We can't just watch him cry himself to death! I'm not an unreasonable person. Why don't we let him leave with Mei Chaofeng?"

"..."

Huang Yaoshi finally understood, and his face turned somewhat ugly as he said, "Brother Ling, you wouldn't be trying to poach my man, would you?"

"What are you saying? Do you think I'm that kind of person?" Ling Chi said innocently.

Huang Yaoshi looked him over and nodded: "You are..."

"..."

You figured that out? You win.

“Okay! Even if I am.” Ling Chi shrugged and said, “I just think Feng Mofeng is a good kid. If he follows me, he can at least become a world-renowned chef.”

"Bah!" Huang Yaoshi retorted angrily, "How could my disciple, Huang Yaoshi's disciple, be a lowly cook!"

"Huh?" Ling Chi was also furious: "Old Huang, how dare you insult me?"

"When did Huang start cursing..." Huang Yaoshi suddenly remembered Ling Chi's identity and immediately shut his mouth.

"Forget it." Seeing Huang Yaoshi back down, Ling Chi waved his hand and said, "I'm magnanimous, so I won't hold it against you."

"Hmph." Huang Yaoshi breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Mei Chaofeng, saying, "Chaofeng, hurry up and pack your things!"

"Yes, Master." Mei Chaofeng left.

Feng Mofeng dared not cry anymore; he could sense that Huang Yaoshi was a powder keg. Cry again? He'd really be crying in the underworld.

"Old Master Huang, you're really generous, I can't be stingy either." After watching Mei Chaofeng leave, Ling Chi took out two handwritten copies from his pocket and said, "Consider this Nine Yin Manual as my betrothal gift!"

"The Nine Yin Manual!?" Huang Yaoshi was shocked, then overjoyed: "It really is the Nine Yin Manual?"

"You'll see when you take a look." Ling Chi handed over the handwritten copy of the Nine Yin Manual: "I copied this from Master Wang. Just take a look yourself, don't spread it around. Otherwise, a large number of martial arts masters will emerge in the martial arts world, and the world will be in chaos."

Huang Yaoshi nodded repeatedly, took the Nine Yin Manual, and flipped through it. Although he only skimmed through it, the profound martial arts principles within told him that the contents were true.

I finally obtained the Nine Yin Manual.

Huang Yaoshi was so excited that his whole body trembled.

……

Ling Chi personally cooked lunch on Peach Blossom Island, and after receiving a few white recipes, he left Peach Blossom Island with Mei Chaofeng, looking quite displeased.

Seeing Ling Chi strike backward with a palm, and the small boat beneath his feet shot off like an arrow, disappearing from the horizon in the blink of an eye, Huang Yaoshi was shocked and terrified his five disciples who had come to see him off: "Mr. Ling, you are so powerful!?"

Feng Heng, standing beside Huang Yaoshi, exclaimed in amazement: "Truly, there are heavens beyond heavens and people beyond people. Husband, this Mr. Ling is probably the real number one person in the world."

Huang Yaoshi recalled the meal at noon that had caused the 'demons to dance wildly' and couldn't help but nod: "This guy is a monster."

Chapter Eleven: When You Are Old

The small boat stopped on the sea between Peach Blossom Island and Zhoushan.

"Let's stay here!" Seeing that there were no boats around and that they would not be disturbed, Ling Chi used his internal energy to fix the small boat on the sea surface and said to Mei Chaofeng, "I have something to tell you."

Mei Chaofeng asked nervously, "Mr. Ling... what does my husband want to say?"

"..."

Ling Chi coughed lightly and said, "Don't call me husband. Actually, I asked for you on behalf of someone else."

Mei Chaofeng's face turned pale instantly, her delicate body trembled slightly, and the world seemed to turn gray.

"But don't worry, I'm a very democratic person," Ling Chi said. "I have a question for you, please answer me truthfully."

Mei Chaofeng lowered her head and said in a low voice, "Ask away."

Do you like your master?

This question startled Mei Chaofeng, who looked up and said, "I... how could I..."

"..."

Judging from your flustered reaction, you seem to be saying one thing but meaning another!

"Don't panic." Ling Chi smiled slightly and said, "If...if your master were seventy or eighty years old, and you and your master were not master and disciple, and he wanted to marry you, would you be willing to marry him?"

"..." Mei Chaofeng remained silent for a long time, her expression struggling repeatedly, but in the end she answered irrelevantly, "Since Mr. Ling is asking for me on behalf of someone else, why bother asking these questions?"

Seeing her cold expression, Ling Chi knew that this girl was filled with dark emotions, and if not handled properly, she could easily have an overreaction.

“Because I want to confirm it.” Ling Chi’s tone softened considerably: “What if I said that the person who wants to marry you is your master?”

"!!!" Mei Chaofeng's beautiful eyes widened as she exclaimed, "Impossible!"

"Whether it's possible or not, just answer me," Ling Chi smiled. "It concerns your future happiness."

My happiness?

Mei Chaofeng suddenly felt that Ling Chi was full of mystery, giving her an inexplicable strange feeling. Yet, she also felt that Ling Chi's words were full of sincerity and not teasing, which made it even stranger.

With her mind in turmoil, Mei Chaofeng remained silent for a moment before nodding: "If it's Master... I'm willing."

Ling Chi looked into her eyes and said, "Even if she's seventy or eighty, you'd still be willing?"

“I am willing!” Mei Chaofeng said, “I was originally a little girl who was pampered by my parents. I played all day long, carefree, without any grudges or love affairs in the martial arts world, or the viciousness and treachery of human relationships. But my parents were killed one after another by villains, and I was almost killed by villains as well. If I hadn’t met my mentor later who avenged me and took me under his wing, there would be no Mei Chaofeng today.”

After hearing this, Ling Chi said, "So, you only feel gratitude towards your master and have no romantic feelings for him?"

"..." After a moment of silence, Mei Chaofeng blushed slightly: "I...I didn't realize it until Master married his wife last year, and then I realized...that's when I realized..."

"..."

Ling Chi rubbed his temples and said, "Perhaps you like your current master, but if your master suddenly became an old man, would you still be willing?"

“I am willing,” Mei Chaofeng said firmly. “No matter how old he is, I will like him.”

Ling Chi stared into her eyes and nodded: "In that case, I will grant your wish."

To grant a wish?

Mei Chaofeng was stunned, but was horrified to find that Ling Chi and Shuang'er had disappeared together.

"!!!"

Mei Chaofeng cried out in terror, "Mr. Ling! Miss Shuang'er! Where are you?!"

……

In the Chef's Space, seeing Mei Chaofeng's terrified expression, Shuang'er said, "Brother, don't scare her, hurry up and recruit!"

"Sigh!" Ling Chi sighed, "I don't know what methods Huang Yaoshi used, but all his disciples love him so much. I'll learn from him and try it out if I ever take on disciples in the future."

Shuang'er chuckled lightly: "What kind of disciple did you take in, brother? With just a dish, who wouldn't love and respect you, brother?"

“That’s true.” Ling Chi nodded and smiled, “Compared to winning people’s hearts, my recipes are more reliable.”

"Hmm." Shuang'er nodded and said, "Brother, hurry up and recruit! Mei Chaofeng is about to cry."

"Very well!" Ling Chi announced loudly, "Recruit Mei Chaofeng!"
