Chef God of the Wuxia and Fantasy World

As they were talking, Shuang'er returned with four swords and a bundle in her hand, which probably contained clothes.

"Where is he?" Four Swords asked, his face showing a mixture of tension and anxiety.

Ling Chi pointed to the next room, and Si Jian immediately went to the door and said, "Child...this servant has brought clothes, please come and see them."

"Come in!" Wu Xingyun said calmly.

"Yes." The four swordsmen opened the door and entered the room one after another. When they saw Wu Xingyun, they almost gasped in surprise: "You are Tong..."

Wu Xingyun glared at them: "Don't make a fuss, give me the clothes."

"Yes."

A soft rustling sound followed, and moments later, a completely refreshed Wu Xingyun emerged from the room.

At this moment, Wu Xingyun was dressed in a white dress, her beautiful hair flowing smoothly down her back. She walked gracefully, like a willow swaying in the wind, which was very beautiful.

Wu Xingyun was already cute at eight or nine years old, and at fourteen or fifteen, she was full of youthful energy, with even more refined features, easily earning a score of seven or eight out of ten.

Ling Chi and Shuang'er were both stunned for a moment.

Wu Xingyun was very satisfied with their reaction and smiled slightly: "I'll return to the palace first. You can enter the palace early tomorrow morning!"

"Oh." Ling Chi asked, "Do you want to bring lunch?"

"From now on, you must devote all your time and energy to martial arts training," Wu Xingyun said. "You can leave the cooking to Shuang'er!"

"This... I'll be living in the palace from now on too?" Ling Chi pressed.

“Of course.” Wu Xingyun nodded.

"Can Shuang'er come to the palace with me?" Ling Chi said, "I'm worried about her going alone."

Wu Xingyun glanced at Shuang'er, nodded, and said to the Four Swords, "Arrange a room for Shuang'er."

"The slaves obey."

Wu Xingyun smiled and said, "Are you relieved now?"

Ling Chi nodded: "Thank you, Little...Granny."

“…” Wu Xingyun glanced at him, then turned and left.

The four swordsmen bowed to the two men and followed them.

……

Watching them walk away, Ling Chi closed the door and immediately entered the Chef God Space with Shuang'er.

Open the panel to see the detailed recipe, preparation process, and effects of "I Want to Grow Up".

Physical development +1: Adds 1 year of growth and development to the original level. This does not apply to individuals over 20 years of age.

Shuang'er hugged Ling Chi excitedly, tears streaming down her face: "Brother, I can finally grow up."

"Yes, congratulations." Ling Chi stroked Shuang'er's hair and comforted her, "Heaven rewards those who persevere. I knew that God would not let Shuang'er down."

"Uh-huh……"

"Brother Ling, Sister Shuang'er, what's wrong?" Huang Rong had just come out of the farm and was shocked and astonished by the scene before her: "What happened?"

"It's nothing," Ling Chi said with a smile. "Shuang'er was just too excited because she found a recipe that could make Shuang'er grow up on Tianshan Tonglao."

"Ah! Really?" Huang Rong was overjoyed: "Sister Shuang'er, congratulations, you can finally grow up."

"Thank you." Shuang'er wiped away her tears and smiled through them. "Although I can only grow up by three years, I'm content."

“Three years old is enough.” Huang Rong chuckled. “My mother was only fourteen when she married my father! Shuang’er was twelve, so she’ll be fifteen when she grows up, which is enough.”

"Mmm." Shuang'er nodded with a smile and asked, "Rong'er, do you want to eat?"

Huang Rong's body is only sixteen years old; she could easily grow up a bit more.

"I don't need it." Huang Rong shook her head repeatedly: "I'll be unclean when I get a few more years old. I'm fine now."

"Unclean?" Shuang'er asked, puzzled.

"Oh, it's just..." Huang Rong whispered something in Shuang'er's ear.

Shuang'er blushed immediately, gently patted her, and said with a laugh, "Why are you always focused on those things? Aren't you ashamed?"

“But it really looks awful, and I don’t want it to look like that,” Huang Rong said. “It’s better now.”

“…” Ling Chi stroked his chin: Could it be that what they were talking about just now was…

Sigh! I really am a filthy adult.

……

"I Want to Grow Up" is just a fancy blue recipe, but it's not a food; it's a drink—a dairy beverage.

Yes, if children want to grow tall, they must drink more milk and supplement with various vitamins and calcium. This dairy product requires three kinds of fresh milk: cow's milk, goat's milk, and tiger's milk, and then various auxiliary ingredients are added and boiled together.

Using the virtual function of the Chef God Space, Ling Chi reached the qualified level in just one day. However, while cow's milk and sheep's milk were easy to obtain and other ingredients were readily available, tiger's milk posed a challenge for him.

"Leave it to me!" Huang Rong said. "I'll go catch a mother tiger that has just given birth to cubs right now, and I'll make sure Shuang'er grows up quickly."

“Rong’er, my little sister…” Shuang’er was deeply moved.

"Alright." Ling Chi nodded. With Huang Rong's strength, tigers and kittens are no different. The only difficulty is that it's not easy to find a mother tiger that has just given birth to cubs.

"Rong'er, do you know where there are tigers?" Ling Chi asked.

"There must be tigers in the mountains!" Huang Rong said. "Isn't there an idiom called 'a tiger roars in the forest'?"

Ling Chi chuckled lightly. He had forgotten that ancient times were different from modern times. Basically, wherever there were large forests, there would be tigers.

Tigers are protected animals in modern times, but in ancient times they were definitely ferocious beasts. Every year, many people were killed by tigers. Therefore, Wu Song was a hero for killing a tiger. In modern times, if someone dares to kill a tiger, they will only be arrested and imprisoned.

Chapter Thirty-Eight: Monster

It was the dead of night outside, and Huang Rong easily evaded the night patrol guards, leaving Lingjiu Palace silently.

After dawn, Ling Chi got ready and pushed the wheelbarrow with Shuang'er into the inner hall of Lingjiu Palace.

With Wu Xingyun's permission, Ling Chi entered without being blindfolded, becoming the first man in history to enter the inner palace of Lingjiu Palace without being blindfolded. As a result, the palace maids inside Lingjiu Palace all stopped to watch with curiosity.

"Look, it's Chef Ling and Sister Shuang'er."

"Why did Chef Ling come in? It was Zhu Jian and Ju Jian who personally led him in."

"Look, Chef Ling wasn't blindfolded!"

"Oh? Really!"

The palace maids were shocked and began to discuss the matter.

……

"I knew it would be like this." Zhu Jian chuckled. "Chef Ling, you are the first man to walk into Lingjiu Palace without being blindfolded."

"It's truly my honor," Ling Chi smiled. "But being stared at by so many women is really a bit uncomfortable."

"You'll get used to it eventually," Zhu Jian said with a smile. "Grandma Tong thinks highly of you; perhaps she'll take you as her disciple in the future!"

"No," Ling Chi said. "I already said yesterday that I have family martial arts skills. I can learn them, but I won't become an apprentice."

"Wow! You're the first person who dared to refuse Granny Tong." Bamboo Sword and Chrysanthemum Sword were quite surprised: What a stubborn man.

"Grandma Tong isn't some fierce demon, why can't she refuse?" Ling Chi looked around the palace. After all, it was built halfway up a mountain, and it didn't have the grandeur of those imperial palaces, but it was still much larger and more imposing than some sect buildings.

If it weren't located in the Tianshan Mountains, Lingjiu Palace would definitely rival the Shaolin Temple in size.

“You’re the first person to dare say that about Granny Tong,” Zhu Jian said. “Granny Tong really treats you differently from others.”

"It's my pleasure," Ling Chi said with a smile.

As they spoke, the four of them walked out of the front hall and entered the garden, which only a few people were allowed to enter.

At this moment, Wu Xingyun was practicing martial arts in the garden, with Mei Jian and Lan Jian standing by his side.

Seeing the four arrive, Wu Xingyun stopped his practice and stood up, smiling slightly, "You've arrived."

"You're here." Ling Chi nodded, looking at her with some surprise.

Compared to yesterday, Wu Xingyun seems to have matured a bit more today, resembling a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young woman, and she looks even more beautiful.

"Are you surprised?" Wu Xingyun touched his face and said, "After all, I am already ninety-four years old. Now that my health has improved, I will gradually return to the appearance of someone in their nineties."

"What a pity," Ling Chi said. "If only you could stay the way you are now. You are beautiful right now."

Wu Xingyun smiled slightly, her eyes sparkling: "Save those words for the young girls!"

He paused for a moment: "Bamboo sword, chrysanthemum sword."

“This servant is here.” Erjian stepped forward and stood in attendance.

“Settle them in properly,” Wu Xingyun said.

"Yes, ma'am." Erjian walked up to Ling Chi and Shuang'er: "Chef Ling, Sister Shuang'er, come with us!"

"Thank you for your trouble." The two nodded, and Ling Chi looked at Wu Xingyun.

"Come over after you've settled in!" Wu Xingyun said to him.

"Aren't you going to eat breakfast?" Ling Chi asked.

Wu Xingyun smiled slightly: "As expected of a cook, never forgetting to eat." He paused: "Is it ready?"

"Of course." Ling Chi took a three-tiered food box from the car: "These are all your favorite foods."

Wu Xingyun nodded with a smile: "Thank you for your thoughtfulness."

"After all, I've learned your martial arts, so I can't just leave without showing my appreciation." Ling Chi handed the food box to Mei Jian.

Wu Xingyun nodded: "Go ahead! See you later."

……

Bamboo Sword and Chrysanthemum Sword arranged a two-bedroom apartment for Ling Chi and Shuang'er, right next to the back garden. In Lingjiu Palace, only Tong Lao, the Four Swords, and some high-ranking palace maids could live here. The two of them could be said to be the first two outsiders to enjoy this treatment.

"Is everything alright?" Ling Chi asked after walking around the room.

Shuang'er nodded: "Very good."

"That's good." Ling Chi smiled slightly and said, "I'll be counting on you for my three meals a day from now on."
