Chef God of the Wuxia and Fantasy World

After some discussion, Lingchi and Yilin both felt that it would be better to wait until their hair grew a little longer before holding the wedding.

The good news is that Yilin's hair grows relatively quickly, and it will be long enough to reach her shoulders in about two years. Ling Chi isn't in a hurry, and neither is Yilin. Her title as the sect leader's wife has already been decided, and they are just waiting for the wedding to be held in two years.

Yilin was a conservative girl; she wouldn't let Lingchi touch her before their wedding night. After some conversation, Lingchi understood and appreciated her self-respect.

……

After spending a month at Mount Hua, Ling Chi, seeing that he was only a dozen or so experience points away from leveling up, finally couldn't resist making a trip to Blackwood Cliff.

After eliminating Ren Woxing, a major threat, Dongfang Bubai finally began to live a semi-secluded life as described in the original novel, enjoying a blissful life with Yang Lianting every day.

Ling Chi secretly sneaked into Blackwood Cliff and found Dongfang Bubai at night.

Ling Chi has no voyeuristic tendencies, much less the urge to spy on Dongfang Bubai. After spending the night in the Chef's Space preparing attribute-based recipes, she tried to force-feed Dongfang Bubai a bowl of "Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup" early the next morning, but failed. She then tried a second bowl, which succeeded.

"Ding! Conquered the stomach of top gourmet Dongfang Bubai, conquest count +1. Dongfang Bubai's penis +1cm."

"Ding, Dongfang Bubai does not have a penis, the concealment effect failed."

"..."

……

And so, Ling Chi stayed at Blackwood Cliff for four months, and finally heard the long-awaited upgrade notification sound on this day.

"Ding, you have conquered diners of the same level 78 times and diners of lower level 2261 times. The upgrade conditions have been met. Host Ling Chi's cooking skills have been upgraded to blue ordinary level."

"Ding! Congratulations to host Ling Chi for raising her cooking skill to blue-level ordinary. You are rewarded with a one-time top-level blue recipe, [Golden Lotus Emerging from the Earth]."

"Golden Lotus Emerging from the Earth: Top-tier blue recipe, increases comprehension by 1 upon consumption."

"Ding, congratulations to the host for upgrading his cooking skills to blue ordinary level, and you have been awarded 1 more assistant chef position."

"Ding, congratulations to the host for raising the cooking skill to blue ordinary level. The auxiliary area - farm is now open."

"Farm: Total area of ​​1000 mu, can grow crops such as grains, vegetables and fruits, and raise poultry and aquatic products such as chickens, ducks and geese, fish, shrimp and crabs, and can recruit 100 farmers."

"Farmer: Farm laborer, any conquered creature can be recruited, any conquered evil spirit can be recruited. Once recruited, they can only exist in the space created by the God of Cookery system and cannot leave."

"Ding, does the host wish to recruit a kitchen helper?"

"Ding, does the host wish to recruit farmers?"

……

Chapter Fifty-Six: Recruiting Farmers

Oh! ?

An unprecedented series of continuous beeping sounds.

Upgrade and get rewarded recipes, kitchen helper positions, a farm, and even farmers!?

"Ding, does the host wish to recruit a kitchen helper?"

Upon hearing the notification tone, Ling Chi thought for a moment and said, "Not recruiting for now."

"Ding, does the host wish to recruit farmers?"

“Farmers…” After a moment’s thought, Ling Chi said, “Display the list from top to bottom according to rank.”

In a flash, a huge display screen appeared before Ling Chi's eyes. It was densely covered with names, some followed by "living spirit" in parentheses, others by "evil spirit." The count showed a total of over ten thousand people.

"Have I conquered so many people?" Ling Chi himself was a little surprised; he hadn't realized it!

With a sigh, his gaze fell on the name of the first diner who had been won over.

Dongfang Bubai.

Unsurprisingly, in this world, Dongfang Bubai is the strongest person.

Zhu Fei? An unexpected character who didn't appear in the original work, so she doesn't count.

Dongfang Bubai would never recruit a cross-dressing master; he would never recruit one even if you beat him to death.

Then, the second one.

Feng Qingyang.

"..." Ling Chi's eyes widened, and he immediately selected: "Recruit Feng Qingyang!"

"Feng Qingyang, a top-tier white-clad diner, attribute: Yin spirit. Recruitment successful."

A flash of white light, and Feng Qingyang appeared in the Chef God Space.

Feng Qingyang was still a little dazed when he first arrived in this space, but after a while, his eyes regained their liveliness and his gaze turned to Ling Chi.

"Ling boy!?" Feng Qingyang was startled, then realized something and asked urgently, "What are you doing here? Could it be... you're dead too!?"

Seeing that Feng Qingyang seemed to have retained his memories from his previous life, Ling Chi laughed heartily: "Grand Uncle Feng, I'm living a good life! But you, you've been dead for more than half a year."

Feng Qingyang was instantly dumbfounded: "What on earth is going on?"

"Don't rush, I still need to recruit a few more people. Uncle Feng, please wait a moment." Ling Chi smiled and immediately flipped through the list.

It includes many masters such as Zuo Lengchan, Mo Da, Liu Zhengfeng, and Qu Yang, as well as Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze.

Ling Chi glanced at Feng Qingyang furtively, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "Recruit Ning Zhongze!"

"Ning Zhongze, a white-clad high-class diner, attribute: Yin spirit. Recruitment successful."

A flash of white light, and Ning Zhongze's figure appeared in the Chef God Space.

"Ning'er!?" Feng Qingyang exclaimed in surprise, his whole body trembling with excitement, his old face turning red.

Ning Zhongze's eyes regained their sparkle, and upon seeing Feng Qingyang, she exclaimed, "Uncle-Master Feng!?"

"Master's wife, it's been a long time," Ling Chi said with a smile.

"You are... Chi'er!?" Ning Zhongze exclaimed in panic, "Where is this? What are you doing here?"

"Please be patient, Master's wife. I still need to recruit some people, and I will explain when the time comes," Ling Chi said.

Suppressing her inner surprise and doubt, Ning Zhongze nodded, then turned to look at Feng Qingyang with a complicated expression.

“Ning’er…” Feng Qingyang’s face was full of guilt.

Ning Zhongze shook her head and turned to look at Ling Chi.

Feng Qingyang sighed and waited silently.

Ling Chi flipped through the list and soon discovered an unexpected situation.

The words 'yin spirit' were written after the names of Liu Zhengfeng, Qu Yang, and Qu Feiyan.

"What happened!?"

Startled, Ling Chi immediately said, "Recruit Liu Zhengfeng, Qu Yang, and Qu Feiyan."

"Liu Zhengfeng, White-Clad High-Class Diner, Attribute: Yin Spirit. Recruitment successful."

"Qu Yang, White-Clad High-Class Diner, Attribute: Yin Spirit. Recruitment Successful."

"Qu Feiyan, ordinary white-clad diner, attribute: Yin spirit. Recruitment successful."

With a whoosh, three white lights flashed, and Liu Zhengfeng, Qu Yang, and Qu Feiyan appeared in the Chef God Space.

Seeing this, Ning Zhongze was startled, as if she had realized something. Her gaze towards Ling Chi held a newfound respect.

The three of them quickly became alert, scanning left and right.

"Brother Ling!?" Upon seeing Ling Chi, Qu Feiyan was both surprised and delighted. She cried out and rushed towards him, "Brother Ling! Brother Ling! Brother Ling! It really is Brother Ling!"

Ling Chi hugged her petite body tightly, a smile on his face as he looked her over.

Just like when they parted ways, Qu Feiyan still looks like she's twelve or thirteen years old... Wait!?

Ling Chi was filled with doubt and surprise. They had been separated for more than two years, and Qu Feiyan couldn't possibly still be like this.

Thinking of her 'yin spirit' attribute, Ling Chi was shocked. Could it be that Qu Feiyan died not long after they separated?

"Young Master Ling." Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang stepped forward and bowed.

"There's no need for such formalities, seniors." Holding Qu Feiyan in his arms, Ling Chi asked, "What happened back then? Why did you both die?"

"This..." Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang looked at each other with bitter smiles, while Qu Feiyan in his arms trembled as if she had remembered something and kept shaking.

Ling Chi hugged her tighter: "Don't be afraid, it's all over now."

Seeing that Qu Feiyan had gradually calmed down, Ling Chi breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang.

"It can only be said that fate is cruel." Liu Zhengfeng sighed and said, "After parting ways with Young Hero Ling back then, we did indeed set sail, but we never expected to encounter a storm at sea on the second day, and so..."

Feeling Qu Feiyan tremble again, Ling Chi gently patted her back and said, "It really is fate playing tricks on us. Fortunately."

"I was just about to ask you this," Qu Yang said, his eyes filled with deep awe. "Young Master Ling, are you perhaps a god descended from heaven? Otherwise, how could you bring us back from the dead?"

"Hehe." Ling Chi chuckled, "Just take it as such!"

Seeing that he was about to ask more questions, Ling Chi said, "We'll talk about some things later. I have some things to do."

Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng suppressed their doubts, nodded, and stood aside. When they saw Feng Qingyang and Ning Zhongze standing not far away, a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes. They quickly realized what was happening, and finally nodded to the two of them with smiles.

Feng Qingyang and Ning Zhongze seemed to have guessed something as well, and returned the smiles, standing respectfully to the side.

Only Qu Feiyan remained nestled in Ling Chi's arms, her big, dark eyes darting around as she turned to look at the name on the big screen that Ling Chi was staring at, her cat paws scratching at her curiosity.

Ling Chi smiled slightly and found the names of Yi Lin, Yue Lingshan, and Ren Yingying one after another.

Needless to say, he would definitely recruit Yilin and Yue Lingshan. As for Ren Yingying…

Although we've never met, the original description suggests she's a great beauty. More beautiful than Yue Lingshan, and probably on par with Yilin. While there's no emotional connection, 100 spots are more than enough; how can we not collect a few famous beauties?

It's a pity that Lan Fenghuang isn't on the list, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to escape either.

"Recruit Yilin, Yue Lingshan, and Ren Yingying." After thinking for a moment, he recruited one more person: "Recruit Linghu Chong."

"Yilin, a white-clad ordinary diner, attribute: living being. Recruitment successful."

"Yue Lingshan, a white-clad ordinary diner, attribute: living being. Recruitment successful."

"Ren Yingying, a white-clad high-class diner, attribute: living being. Recruitment successful."

"Linghu Chong, a white-clad high-class diner, attribute: living being. Recruitment successful."

Four flashes of white light appeared in succession, and Yilin, Yue Lingshan, Ren Yingying, and Linghu Chong appeared in the Chef God Space. Unlike the Yin spirits like Feng Qingyang, Linghu Chong and the others had bright and lively eyes as soon as they appeared, reminding Ling Chi of the scene when he recruited Shuang'er back then.
