"Ding! You have conquered the stomach of top-tier white-class gourmet Ban Shuxian. Conquest count +0.01. Top-tier white-class recipe dropped - Big Plate Chicken."

"Big Plate Chicken: Top-tier white recipe, Stamina +100, Energy +50. No cooldown time."

……

Pah! Trash couple!

What a waste of my blue recipe.

Ling Chi was furious.

Losing big!

"Hahahaha, delicious! Delicious! Unparalleled deliciousness!" He Taichong and Ban Shuxian woke up from their hallucination. One felt his true energy rising, and the other felt strong and healthy. They were overjoyed and looked at Ling Chi with fervent eyes: "Young man's cooking skills are truly unparalleled. My wife and I admire you! Admire you!"

Ling Chi gave a forced smile: "You're too kind. I'm glad you two are satisfied."

"Satisfied, satisfied." The two nodded repeatedly, shoveling the remaining food into their mouths. In no time, they had finished eating, leaving the plates spotless.

"..."

Ling Chi picked up the plate and casually threw it to the side of the road, where it shattered into pieces.

Then he took two more plates of the same dish out of the cart.

Lift the lid, and a burst of blue light shoots into the sky.

Everyone's eyes lit up with envy.

Chapter Eight: I Am a Chef

"My master, Abbess Miejue, wields the Heaven-Slaying Sword. She is highly skilled in martial arts and virtuous. She should be one of the top ten!" Ding Minjun shouted, attracting the attention of all the sects.

Although there were many who frowned, considering what Abbess Miejue had done over the years, as well as the relationship between the Emei and Wudang sects, none of the sects could refute her.

“Amitabha, Abbess Miejue deserves a place.”

The abbot of Shaolin Temple spoke, and everyone echoed his words.

"You flatter me." Abbess Miejue smiled, clasped her hands in a fist and bowed, and walked to the stall: "Young man, I apologize for disturbing you."

Ling Chi was unwilling: Abbess, you've already been conquered, please let this old monk go!

"You're too kind, nun. Please have some."

Ling Chi brilliantly portrayed the scenario of smiling on the outside but cursing on the inside.

Abbess Miejue took the bamboo chopsticks and couldn't wait to take a bite.

"Well--"

……

"Ding! You have conquered the stomach of the top-tier white-clad diner, Abbess Miejue. The diner is currently in the conquest cooldown period and this does not count towards the conquest count. Since the diner already has the recipe, no recipe will drop this time."

Ling Chi secretly wiped away her tears.

My heart aches so much, I'm so sad.

……

"It is indeed an unparalleled delicacy."

With a beaming smile, Abbess Miejue finished the dish "Moon Rising Over the Sea," and her admiration for Ling Chi's culinary skills grew even stronger: "May I ask where you are from, young man? And who is your teacher?"

"I am just an ordinary citizen with no teacher." Ling Chi smiled slightly: Did you think I would tell you?

He whispered, "Peach blossoms fall like flying swords, the blue sea rises like jade flutes."

"You—!" Abbess Miejue's expression changed drastically, she was extremely shocked.

Ling Chi smiled slightly and said, "Since you are a nun, I suppose you can't eat this Dragon's Roar and Tiger's Howl. What a pity."

"..." Abbess Miejue gave him a deep look and nodded.

……

After Abbess Miejue returned to the team, Lingchi added another member, "The Moon Rises Over the Sea," allowing the others to continue the election.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

A burst of loud laughter approached from afar, alerting all factions: "Who are you, you rat?!"

Two figures leaped into the arena, arm in arm, laughing wildly, treating all the martial arts sects as nothing.

Ling Chi looked closely and saw that the two men were around fifty years old, both with high noses and deep-set eyes, from the Western Regions, with gray hair. One of them held a crane-shaped writing brush, and the other held a deer-shaped staff.

"Hahahaha! The martial arts of the two elders of Xuanming are far superior to those of these chickens and dogs. My brother and I should be among the top ten masters." Lu Zhangke laughed loudly.

“Excellent!” Hebi Weng laughed and agreed, “We have two portions.”

"The Two Elders of Xuanming!?" Upon hearing their names, the various sects showed expressions of fear.

These two elders of Xuanming are renowned masters in the martial arts world. Their Xuanming Divine Palm is ruthless and vicious, and they are difficult to deal with even if one of them is alone. However, the two of them are always inseparable, making it particularly troublesome for the righteous faction of the martial arts world to encounter them.

With the two of them appearing today, there will likely be two fewer spots available for the dishes.

Ignoring the reactions of the various factions, the two headed straight for Ling Chi's stall: "Kid, give us two portions!"

"..."

Ling Chi silently brought out two more dishes. After opening the lids, a blue light flashed, and the two of them immediately showed expressions of delight.

"Quick! Chopsticks!"

The chopsticks were handed over, and the two of them reached for their respective plates of "Dragon Roar and Tiger Howl".

"Well--"

"Well--"

……

"Ding! You have conquered the stomach of the ordinary blue diner, Crane Pen Elder. Conquest count +1. Ordinary blue recipe dropped - Ice Cream."

"Ice Cream: Standard blue recipe, maintains absolute sanity for one hour. Cooldown time: 10 days."

"Ding! Conquered the stomach of ordinary blue diner Deer Staff Guest, conquest count +1. Dropped ordinary blue recipe - Ice Cream."

"Ice Cream: Normal blue recipe, maintains absolute sanity for one hour. Cooldown time: 10 days."

"???"

Ling Chi was stunned.

What the heck is this?

Ice cream and ice cream... what's the difference between them?

Are you sure you're not just nitpicking with me?

With deep questions in mind, Ling Chi looked at the differences between the two recipes. Only then did she understand.

Oh, so ice cream is soft, and frozen dessert is hard...

Ok!

Don't take it too seriously, or you'll go crazy.

An hour of absolute sanity—I don't know what it'll do, but it looks pretty amazing. Plus two experience points, this is a good deal.

"Delicious! So delicious!" The two elders of Xuanming woke up from their illusion, feeling full of power and excited beyond measure.

Just as they finished the first dish and were about to start on the second, an angry shout suddenly came from the mountain: "Elder Xuanming, give me back my son Wuji!"

The two looked up at the mountain and saw Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu shooting down the mountain like lightning. Behind them were several Wudang disciples, and...

"Zhang Sanfeng!?"

The two elders of Xuanming were horrified and stopped eating, shouting, "Run!"

"Where are you two going?"

Just as the two elders of Xuanming were about to escape, they suddenly felt their Jianjing acupoints were sealed, and due to inertia, they fell to the ground with a thud.

Just as they were about to struggle, a person suddenly appeared and struck their major acupoints, immobilizing them like pigs tied up, making them unable to move an inch.

The two were utterly shocked, but upon recognizing the person, they exclaimed in surprise, "It's you!"

Ling Chi smiled slightly: "You two haven't finished your meal yet, why are you in such a hurry to leave!"

"You, you..." The two elders of Xuanming almost wet their pants: "Who are you?"

Not only the Xuanming Elders, but also thousands of people from various martial arts sects were so shocked by this scene that their hearts stopped and they almost couldn't catch their breath.

Only Abbess Miejue's eyes flashed with a sharp light: Just as I thought, just as I thought.

Just as everyone was shocked, Ling Chi leisurely took out a white chef's uniform from the small cart and put it on. Finally, he tidied his hair, put on the tall chef's hat, held a knife in his left hand and a spatula in his right hand, crossed them in front of his chest, and said, "I am a chef."

The Xuanming Elders: "..."

Everyone: "..."

"Daddy, I need to pee." Xiao Zhao tugged at Ling Chi's trouser leg, her little face turning red from holding it in.

"..."

Ling Chi broke down in an instant: "Let's go pee in the woods with Auntie."

Shuang'er covered her mouth and chuckled, then took Xiao Zhao to the grove.

Ling Chi coughed lightly, his left hand holding a knife and his right hand a shovel, crossed in front of his chest: "I am..."

"Elder Xuanming! Give me back my child Wuji!" Yin Susu rushed over like a tigress, kicking the two elders lying on the ground: "Where did you hide my child Wuji? Give Wuji back to me now!"

Ling Chi: "..."

"Ouch! Ouch!"

The two elders of Xuanming screamed repeatedly, "Stop hitting me! I'll talk! I'll talk!"

"Speak quickly!" Yin Susu kicked him a few more times to vent her anger before coldly demanding an answer.

"he……"

"Daddy, we found a little boy who has fainted." Xiao Zhao and Shuang'er returned after urinating, with Shuang'er carrying a little boy who looked about ten years old and was unconscious.
