"..." Wanwan has been surprised more than once today. Her worldview of the past eighteen years seems to have been overturned today.

"What's the point of becoming strong if the strong can't enslave the weak?" Wanwan spoke for the first time.

“It’s useful!” Ling Chi said. “At least I won’t be bullied by other strong people, and at least I can protect myself and my family from harm.” He paused, then added, “I was originally a chef, but why do you think I practiced martial arts?”

"Huh?" Wanwan was stunned for a moment: "Brother Ling, you... could it be that you've been bullied before?"

“Yes!” Ling Chi sighed, “He was tied to a pillar with a rope and almost got torn to pieces.”

"..."

“From that moment on, I vowed to become stronger, not for revenge or to bully others, but so that I would never be bullied again.” Ling Chi looked into her eyes and asked, “Wanwan, why do you practice martial arts?”

Wanwan was silent for a moment, then said, "I never thought about it. My master asked me to practice martial arts, so I did. Later, my master chose me as the successor of the Yin Gui Sect and told me that I must become stronger, that I must surpass the people of Cihang Jingzhai, and that I must develop and expand the Yin Gui Sect. This is the mission of successors throughout the generations."

Ling Chi smiled and said, "For the sake of the mission, that's one reason. If nothing unexpected happens, you should be the future leader of the Yin Gui Sect, right?"

“Yes.” Wanwan nodded: “Now I have cultivated the Heavenly Demon Great Art to the highest level of eighteen, which is a level that even my master has not reached. I have no reason not to serve my sect.”

“The eighteenth level of cultivation should be the Grandmaster level!” Ling Chi said.

Wanwan nodded.

“I visited Jingnian Zen Temple and Cihang Jingzhai a few years ago,” Ling Chi said.

Wanwan's eyes widened.

"The monk Liaokong of Jingnian Temple is only one step away from reaching the Grandmaster level, and Fan Qinghui of Cihang Jingzhai is only one step away from becoming a Grandmaster as well."

A hint of disdain flashed in Wanwan's eyes: "Brother Ling, you may not know this, but there is a vast chasm between a Grandmaster and a Great Grandmaster. It may seem close, but it is an insurmountable difference. Many people reach the Grandmaster level at a young age, but they remain Grandmasters until they die."

“I know.” Ling Chi nodded and said, “But Jingnian Temple has seventeen Grandmasters, Cihang Jingzhai has twelve Grandmasters, and Yin Gui Sect plus all the experts of the Demonic Sect, how many Grandmasters does it have?”

"..." Wanwan was stunned.

so much!?

She didn't doubt the truth of these words; given Ling Chi's demonstrated strength surpassing that of a Grandmaster, there was no reason for him to lie to her. Since it was true, she really needed to warn her master to be more vigilant.

Because in the entire Yin Gui Sect, only she and her master are Grandmaster-level experts. Although the other elders also have strength close to that of a Grandmaster, they are only close. The roof is two meters high, and even if you are 1.99 meters tall, you still can't touch the roof.

A slight difference can lead to a huge error.

The only good news is that she has broken through to the Grandmaster realm. A Grandmaster is enough to withstand the siege of five Grandmasters. If she encounters a lone Grandmaster, she can easily kill him.

“We are not afraid,” Wanwan said. “I am now a Grandmaster. If Cihang Jingzhai dares to try to destroy the Yin Gui Sect, they should be careful of being assassinated by me, a Grandmaster.”

Ling Chi gave a thumbs up: "That's right. A Grandmaster is enough to suppress a region, just like Fu Cailin of Goguryeo. If it weren't for him, Goguryeo would have been destroyed long ago, and how could it have resisted the Sui Dynasty's three expeditions against Goguryeo? Now Goguryeo is safe and sound, but the Sui Dynasty has been dragged down."

"So I want to thank Brother Ling." Wanwan smiled brightly, hugging his arm, and said, "If it weren't for Brother Ling, I don't know how long it would have taken me to break through to the Grandmaster realm, so I want to thank you!"

"No need for thanks." Faced with the temptation of beauty, Ling Chi remained unmoved: "In the future, if your Yin Gui Sect is doing business or anything else, just come to my Peach Blossom Island for a meal."

“He agreed!” The more unmoved Ling Chi remained, the more Wanwan wanted to melt this block of wood. Ling Chi’s strength was worth it for her to do so.

"But Brother Ling, could you let me have a bite of dragon meat?" Wanwan licked her cherry-red lips with her pink lilac tongue, exuding extreme temptation.

Ling Chi raised his right hand and rubbed his thumb and index and middle fingers together.

"..." Wanwan rolled her eyes: "Brother Ling, you're so annoying~~~~"

Oh my god, it's so flaky!

But you still need to stay calm.

Resisting the temptation of beauty is a form of self-cultivation. Didn't Fahai in "Green Snake" do just that? Although he was ultimately thwarted by Xiaoqing and became furious.

But this only proves that Fahai's six senses are impure and his cultivation is incomplete. I'm different; what haven't I seen? You think you can move me with a little coquetry? How naive.

Chapter Twenty-One: This demoness must not be allowed to live!

"This is dragon meat pastry, have some!"

Ling Chi placed a piece of dragon meat pastry on the table, glanced at Wanwan, and said, "This is a one-time thing, and there will be no next time."

He failed; he couldn't resist Wanwan's coquettishness. The most talented successor in the history of the Yin Gui Sect, an eighteen-year-old Grandmaster-level expert, and possessing the Heavenly Demon Technique specifically designed to subdue men, although he was much stronger than Wanwan, he had not lost his standards as a man. In fact, they were even stronger than those of ordinary men.

Besides, he had already intended for Wanwan to eat this dish, so he readily agreed. He only hoped that the 30% success rate would be high; otherwise, he didn't know when he would be able to win over this little vixen.

The shape of Jiao Rou Su is very similar to that of dragon beard candy. It looks like it can be easily crushed, so Jiao Rou Su is held on a piece of cardboard. You just hold the cardboard and pour it into your mouth.

"Brother Ling is so kind to me." Wanwan rubbed against Ling Chi's arm, clinging to him like a kitten, her warm body temperature, and her intoxicating fragrance... Ling Chi trembled a little.

You demon! This old monk will take you in!

He pulled his arm away and said, "If you eat this dish, you owe me a favor. Remember to pay me back later."

"Do you want me to repay you with my body?" Wanwan asked seductively, licking her cherry lips.

Ling Chi picked up the dragon meat pastry and left.

"No~~~" Wanwan hugged Ling Chi's waist: "Brother Ling, I know I was wrong! Please give me some!"

"You little vixen, don't you know the rule that men and women shouldn't touch each other?" Ling Chi said. "Let go of me! What if someone sees us all like this?"

"Go ahead and look." Wanwan's eyes were like crescent moons. "Then I'll cling to Brother Ling."

"Go away, you ate over ten thousand taels of silver from me in one meal, and you still want to take advantage of me? Dream on!" Ling Chi broke free from Wanwan's embrace and handed her the dragon meat pastry: "Eat it quickly, or I'll eat it myself."

"Awoo!" Wanwan swallowed the dragon meat pastry in one gulp.

"..."

"Mmm~~~"

"Ding! You have conquered the stomach of Wanwan, a high-level purple-ranked diner. Conquest count +1. High-level purple-ranked recipe dropped - Witch."

"Witch: Advanced Purple Recipe, Appearance +5, Charm +2. Valid for three uses, only effective on females."

……

Looking at the effects of this recipe, Ling Chi kept thinking: Is this recipe a bit of a disaster for the country and its people?

Appearance +5, effective three times, that's 15 points of appearance. Even an ugly woman can become a great beauty after consuming it. But the biggest drawback is that it only adds +2 to charm.

Charm and allure are different. Charm is an attraction that is gender-neutral. If you have enough charm, you can buy a house or a villa in a day by just sitting by the roadside with a basin.

But allure is a bad thing; it's a negative product that makes people addicted and lose their willpower. Its effects are similar to opium; it feels great at the time, but the Chaoyang masses and drug rehabilitation centers welcome you.

Ling Chi would definitely not let his woman eat such a thing, otherwise he would turn into a salted fish sooner or later, and a dried salted fish at that.

However... if a woman were to consume this and use it to harm a wealthy and powerful man she dislikes, it could potentially ruin his family and cause his death.

Who should it be used on?

While Ling Chi was plotting something wicked, Wanwan had already fallen into an illusion.

In the dream world, she was like a white cloud, floating carefree in the sky, seeing countless scenes of the world: green mountains, clear waters, chirping insects, and singing birds. Everything was so soothing and beautiful that she was immersed in it and did not want to wake up.

The beauty was fleeting. As the 'medicine' wore off, Wanwan slowly opened her eyes and saw Ling Chi sitting opposite her, carving a radish. She smiled slightly and asked, "Brother Ling, what are you carving?"

"Are you blind?" Ling Chi glanced at her and said, "White radish."

Wanwan pouted: No man has ever spoken to me like this before.

"Brother Ling, they're asking what you're carving out of white radishes."

“A crane,” Ling Chi said.

"..." Wanwan sat beside him, watching quietly.

The faint fragrance, the warm body temperature, and the occasional emanation of demonic energy all assaulted Ling Chi's heart.

Stay calm and don't panic.

Ling Chi resisted Wanwan's charm and finally finished carving the crane before his heart broke down.

"Wow! That's amazing! It looks just like it's alive!" Wanwan looked at the palm-sized crane, her eyes filled with childlike joy. "Brother Ling, can I have this crane?"

They've already given away 100,000 taels of silver, so what's a little radish and crane?

"You'd better eat it within half an hour, or it won't be fresh," Ling Chi said.

"Okay! Thank you, Brother Ling." Wanwan happily held the crane in her hands, her slender fingers gently touching it. The tender white radish felt wonderful to the touch, as if her fingers were touching her fingers.

Ling Chi was surprised that Wanwan, this enchantress, was so happy over a radish. He couldn't believe that she could be so childlike.

Is this still the same demonic witch who manipulated the two dragons at will?

"Brother Ling."

"Ok?"

Wanwan smiled slightly: "I'm so glad I came here!"

Ling Chi smirked, "Yeah! You ate over ten thousand taels of silver from me for nothing!"

Wanwan pouted and said, "You're so annoying."

Ling Chi took a deep breath: Stay calm, I've been through countless battles, what haven't I seen!

"I'm only giving you a discount because you're pretty. Remember to pay for whatever you eat next time." With that, Ling Chi got up and left.

This demoness is too powerful; I need to train for a few days.

Watching his retreating figure, Wanwan smiled slightly, her jade-like finger gently tapping the crane: "He said I'm beautiful!"

……

kitchen.

Having just found a moment to relax, Huang Rong put down the kitchen knife, smoothed her hair, and said, "Brother Ling, I heard that the guest who just arrived is a stunningly beautiful woman?"

"Jealous?" Ling Chi asked with a smile.

"How could I possibly eat all that?" Huang Rong snorted softly, tugging at her hair and feeling sorry for herself. "It's just that I'm stuck in the kitchen all day, surrounded by smoke and fire, while Brother Ling always manages to meet beautiful women. Why is my life so miserable?"

Watching Huang Rong's self-directed performance, Ling Chi chuckled, grabbed her, and slipped into the Chef God Space.

A dozen minutes later, the two came out.

Huang Rong's face was flushed and radiant, like a cherry blossom after the rain. All her previous grievances had vanished.

Ling Chi rubbed his aching back: This rammer is no job for a human being.

Shuang'er silently handed him two skewers of large kidneys.
