That 'broken sword' was naturally the Chef God Sword, which Feng Huo Lei had always envied, resented, and hated, and wanted to take it away whenever he had the chance.

“Actually, I’ve wanted to change my sword for a while now.” Ling Chi stroked his chin. “You only have three attributes, but my junior sisters’ Five Elemental Swords have five attributes. Should I reforge you?”

I go!

A hum of wind, fire, and thunder erupted, displaying powerful wind, fire, and thunder attributes, as if to say: With me here, no one can harm Liu Mengli.

"Hmm." Ling Chi nodded in satisfaction, and after sheathing it, he handed the sword to Liu Mengli: "Take it! It will automatically fly around you normally, and even Xuanxiao will have a hard time hurting you, so I can feel more at ease."

"Thank you, teacher." Liu Mengli did not refuse. She knew that her teacher would never change her mind, and this was a token of her teacher's affection, which she could not let down.

"Mengli, these are some talismans I made. Take them." Shuang'er took out dozens of talismans from her bosom and said, "These talismans have many wonderful uses and can save you some trouble."

"Thank you, Second Martial Uncle." Liu Mengli quickly expressed her gratitude. These talismans were all high-grade products made by Shuang'er. The description of 'limitless uses' was not an exaggeration, but an objective fact.

“This…” Huang Rong and Shang Xiuxun looked at each other and took out several bottles of ‘vegetable pills’, saying, “We don’t have anything to give you. These vegetable pills each have their own uses. Keep them for when you need them.”

"Thank you, Third Uncle and Fourth Uncle," Liu Mengli said again.

Xuanji was silent for a moment, then took off the jade bracelet from her wrist and said, "This is my favorite bracelet. My master gave it to me on the day I came of age. Now, I'm giving it to you, hoping that you'll remember me when you get there."

"Senior Sister, I can't accept this jade bracelet." Liu Mengli quickly declined, "This is a birthday gift from our teacher. How can you give it away? It's inappropriate, inappropriate."

“But…” Xuanji said dejectedly, “I don’t have a better gift for you.”

Liu Mengli was deeply moved. Although this senior sister had been hostile to her ever since she entered the sect, she was ultimately kind-hearted. As she was about to leave, she gave her the most important jade bracelet. This sentiment alone was priceless.

"I'm only leaving for a while, and I'll definitely be back. So please take care, Senior Sister, and wait for me to return." Liu Mengli comforted her, "I will remember Senior Sister's kindness for the rest of my life."

"You don't have to remember it for a lifetime!" Seeing that Liu Mengli really didn't care about the gift, Xuanji breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt that she had said something a bit too much.

“Junior Sister Mengli.” Xuanqin took out a musical score from her bosom and said, “I know you love playing the konghou. This musical score is something I obtained from my exchanges with my senior master over the years. I’m giving it to you today, hoping that when you play these pieces, you will think of us.”

Liu Mengli took the sheet music and said with emotion, "Thank you very much, Senior Sister Xuanqin. I like it very much."

Master, Uncle, Senior Sister, and Junior Brother and Sister, it's so wonderful to have met, gotten to know, and become friends with you all.

Chapter Thirty-Eight: Two Hundred Years Later

After midnight, the Illusionary Realm flew over the Qionghua Sect. Without the Wangshu Sword, Xuanxiao was indeed unable to bind the Illusionary Realm, and the Illusionary Realm was powerless to avenge the grudge from nineteen years ago. The night passed, and the two sides ended their peaceful coexistence.

The only difference was that when Liu Mengli arrived at the Illusionary Dream Realm, she plunged into it, causing a stir among the Qionghua Sect.

Xuanxiao summoned Ling Chi and asked, "Junior Brother Ling, was the person who just entered the Demon Realm your disciple?"

“That’s right.” Ling Chi nodded and said, “However, she is the demon girl that Yun Tianqing saved back then. Now that she has come of age, it’s time for her to go back.”

"The demon girl from back then?" Xuanxiao was very surprised: "Junior Brother Ling, since you knew she was a demon, why did you still take her as your disciple?"

"There are good and bad people among humans, and good and bad demons among demons. I only know that Mengli is a good demon, so I am willing to teach her." He paused, "It is precisely because she accepted the teachings of our human race that she spoke up for our race after returning, isn't that right?"

Xuanxiao gave him a deep look and said, "Junior Brother Ling is indeed a person of great wisdom."

"I dare not accept such praise," Ling Chi said. "Moreover, there are no signs of any invasion from the demon realm; they have already gone far away."

Xuanxiao gazed at the ever-receding Illusionary Dream Realm, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "Junior Brother Ling, did you already guess that?"

"As long as we gather more information, analyze it in detail, and make bold inferences, it won't be difficult to arrive at a conclusion," Ling Chi smiled. "The world is vast, not just a corner of the Qionghua Sect. Senior Brother Xuanxiao, go out and explore more when you have free time; you'll gain something from it."

Xuanxiao chuckled lightly, "So you're teaching me now." He paused, then asked, "Junior Brother Ling, when are you leaving?"

“I’ve already left the demon realm, so there’s no time to lose. I’m leaving now,” Ling Chi said.

"So fast?" Xuanxiao was somewhat surprised.

“I have served this sect for nineteen years. In the days to come, I want to find my own happiness.” Ling Chi smiled slightly: “For someone like me, a sect is actually a kind of constraint.”

Xuanxiao nodded: "Very well." Then, Xuanxiao transmitted a set of immortal techniques to him through telepathy. After listening, Ling Chi clasped his hands in thanks to Xuanxiao: "Thank you, Senior Brother Xuanxiao."

Xuanxiao clasped his hands in greeting: "We will meet again someday, I hope you take good care of yourself."

After bidding farewell to Xuanxiao, Ling Chi found Su Xin in the crowd. Su Xin was with Su Yao, whose eyes were lifeless. When she saw him coming, Su Yao's eyes lit up, but her face turned icy cold: "What are you doing here? Are you here to laugh at me?"

"There's a limit to wishful thinking," Ling Chi said calmly. "I'm here to see Su Xin."

Su Yao was so angry that she trembled all over.

Lingchi!

Ling Chi completely ignored her and asked Su Xin, "Want to come together?"

"I'm sorry," Su Xin said apologetically, "Senior sister needs me."

"Have you made up your mind?" Ling Chi asked.

"Hmm." Su Xin nodded, then changed the subject: "When is Senior Brother Ling leaving?"

"I'm leaving now," Ling Chi said.

"So fast?" Su Xin was surprised and said, "Then Senior Brother Ling, please take care."

"You too." Ling Chi nodded and turned to leave.

Watching his departing figure, Su Xin said, "Senior Sister, actually Senior Brother Ling is a good person."

"You think he's a good person?" Su Yao's expression was icy. "Do you know that it was he who suggested that Xuan Xiao replace me?"

“He told me that,” Su Xin said. “And he told me very frankly that even if he hadn’t brought it up, Xuan Xiao would have done it anyway. Xuan Xiao’s cultivation is too high, so rather than resisting, it’s better to go with the flow and minimize the damage to the Qionghua Sect.”

"Su Xin, you've been bewitched by him." Su Yao flicked her sleeve. "Don't mention him again. Come with me!"

Seeing that the conflict between the two was irreconcilable, Su Xin felt very tired.

……

In the crowd, Ling Chi found Murong Ziying: "Ziying."

"Senior Brother Ling." Murong Ziying clasped his hands in greeting.

“Starting today, you will move to Sword Forging Valley!” Ling Chi said.

"What do you mean by that, Senior Brother Ling?" Murong Ziying asked in astonishment.

"Your senior sister, your junior sisters, and I are about to leave," Ling Chi said. "Although you are not officially Master's disciple, he has passed on his mantle to you. After we leave, Sword Forging Valley will be in your hands."

"Where is Senior Brother Ling going?" Murong Ziying asked.

"Of course I want to travel the world," Ling Chi said with a smile. "The world is so big, I want to see it."

"..."

He patted Murong Ziying on the shoulder: "Take care."

"Senior Brother Ling!" Murong Ziying asked, "Will you return it in the future?"

"When you want to come back, you will." Ling Chi waved and left.

At dawn, a massive spaceship rose from Sword Forging Valley, pierced through the clouds, and flew into the distance.

……

Two hundred years later.

In Yuzhou, at Yong'an Pawnshop, a divine sword suddenly appeared in the room of Jing Tian, ​​a young shop assistant at the pawnshop, that night. The sword possessed extraordinary power of wind, fire, and thunder, which greatly surprised Jing Tian.

What surprised him even more was that a sword spirit actually lived inside the sword. This sword spirit was a beautiful girl of sixteen or seventeen years old dressed in palace attire. As soon as she appeared, she hugged him and called him brother.

Jing Tian was shocked and thus began a legendary journey.

……

Chef's Space.

Seeing the interaction between Longkui and Jingtian through the live broadcast, Xiaohong laughed and said, "I really don't understand you. Why did you have Longkui go to see her brother's reincarnation? Aren't you afraid that Longkui will fall in love with her brother and never come back?"

“The Crown Prince Longyang is Xiao Kui’s wish. I promised her back then, and a true man cannot go back on his word.” Ling Chi smiled slightly: “As for you, I thought you would go with Xiao Kui.”

“Xiao Kui is strong enough now, it doesn’t matter whether I’m there or not.” Xiao Hong sat on his lap, her snow-white arms hooking around his neck, and said, “Besides, I have to be with my man, I don’t have time to worry about Xiao Kui.”

"You little devil, you're really a handful." Ling Chi patted her and said, "I have some things to do, go play!"

"What's up? Is it more fun than me?" Xiao Hong asked with a flirtatious look.

"Hehe." Ling Chi smiled: "Senior Candle Dragon is coming to visit today."

Upon hearing the name Candle-Holding Dragon, Little Red climbed off his lap and said, "Then go ahead! Remember to get me some specialties from the divine realm."

"Understood." Ling Chi stood up and left the Chef God Space.

……

Above the clouds, the spaceship continued its steady flight. Meanwhile, Shuang'er, Huang Rong, Shang Xiuxun, Liu Mengli, and Liu An were all busy in the kitchen.

The dragon carrying the candle is coming today, so they started preparing a grand feast early on, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

They were preparing ordinary red recipes, but Ling Chi joined in and started preparing advanced red recipes.

Because the Candle Dragon only likes to eat meat, Ling Chi's dish is a simple and straightforward roasted monster.

The monster was called a Paoxiao, which he caught in Gouwu Mountain.

This roe owl has a human face and a sheep's body, with eyes located under its armpits. Its teeth resemble a tiger's, and it has human fingernails. Its cry sounds like a baby's wail, and it eats people. A high-level red-tier magical beast.

Because the roe owl preys on humans and is extremely powerful, almost all human cultivators regularly come to hunt them down, resulting in a dwindling roe owl population. Ling Chi was lucky enough to encounter a family of three on Gouwu Mountain, and they were reunited in a different form.

The other two roe deer owls have been turned into various high-end red recipes by Ling Chi and placed in the Chef God Space. This is the last one, and the only one that is preserved intact, so it is being roasted.

The roe owl is relatively small, only about the size of a water buffalo, making it relatively easy to roast. This was certainly not a problem for Ling Chi. Moreover, while others use charcoal to roast, he uses fire magic. With his current control over flames, all the ingredients can enjoy the most perfect heat.

During the roasting process, Ling Chi brushed a brand-new seasoning onto the roe deer, and instantly, an irresistibly enticing aroma exploded, filling the entire barrier space of the spaceship.

"It smells so good!" Even Huang Rong and the others couldn't resist the aroma and subconsciously swallowed.

Liu An said proudly, "This top-grade seasoning, which I have spent a hundred years developing, is not just a name without substance."

That's right, the seasoning used in Lingchi was developed by Liu An.

Liu An truly lived up to his reputation as an ancient chemist. Since becoming a kitchen helper, he devoted all his energy to the research of seasonings. He explored spices from all over the world to the fullest extent. Over two hundred years, he completed at least a million spice combinations. In addition to the seasoning that Ling Chi used earlier, he had at least a dozen other top-grade seasonings of the same level, no fewer than a hundred high-grade seasonings, and tens of thousands of ordinary ones.

Even the ordinary seasonings that he uses have reached the purple quality. Simply put, as long as you use these ordinary seasonings, no matter what you make, you can at least get a purple quality recipe. Thanks to Liu An, Ling Chi has created no less than a hundred high-grade red recipes over the years, each of which has extraordinary effects.

However, for two hundred years, Ling Chi has not upgraded his culinary skills; he remains at the advanced red level. It's not that he can't encounter advanced red-level diners, but rather that he stopped upgrading after reaching 99% experience.

The reason is simple: he was waiting for Shuang'er.

Huang Rong and the others have all reached the ordinary red level in cooking skills, and even Liu Mengli and Liu An have reached this level. Only Shuang'er has only reached the purple top level so far.
