Walnut used me to boost her sales performance.

Looking at his adopted nephew whose mind was disturbed by the yang energy, Shen He had no intention of helping him suppress it. Just as they said, it was good to release it occasionally.

I just don't know if she'll remember her answer now, once he's sober.

Seeing that she didn't speak for a while, Chongyun continued to press her for answers.

"Has the immortal treated you badly? Honestly! He took you up the mountain and accepted you as his disciple, but he doesn't treat you well! Don't think that just because you're an immortal, you can look down on us mortals... Let's go! Let's go up the mountain and find the immortal to demand an explanation!"

As he spoke, he grabbed Shen He, intending to demand justice.

Jiang Bai clicked his tongue at Chongyun, who assumed Shen He was doing badly just because Shen He hadn't replied.

"He's really a completely different person from usual!"

Seeing Chongyun's indignant expression, Shen He slowly shook his head.

“My master is very good to me. Not only my master, but also True Lord Xiaoyue Zhuyang and True Lord Lishan Dieshui are very good to me. I am also doing very well in the mountains.”

Hearing that she had said it was good, Chongyun finally stopped. "That's more like it! Auntie, if you're unhappy or wronged here, just come to Tianheng Mountain to find me anytime! Our family will always welcome you!"

Seeing the concern in Chongyun's eyes, Shenhe felt good knowing that someone cared about him.

There was a time when she had no more attachments in the world, and the place where she once lived was no longer the same.

Her heart, which had been largely devoid of emotion due to the red rope binding it, was like a still lake, completely calm and undisturbed.

Encountering them during this period was like throwing a small stone into a lake, creating tiny ripples.

The drinks were delicious, the pork chops were tasty, and the breeze was pleasant.

She nodded gently. "Mm."

As the group ate and chatted, the amount of meat on the table gradually decreased.

Jiang Bai patted his round belly and let out a burp. He lay on the recliner, not wanting to move. He was too full.

The others were in similar situations, and even Shen He couldn't eat anymore.

However, this wild boar was quite large, and with its abundant meat and fat, even if six people ate it, there would still be a lot left over.

Walnut packed up a portion of pork tenderloin to take back as a snack for Zhongli, and pushed the rest to Shenhe.

“We can’t eat all of this, and it would be a waste to throw it away. You can take it back for the immortals to try! It’s good to have some human food every now and then to improve their palates.”

"Yes, Auntie, your master has definitely never tasted Chef Xiangling's cooking. I guarantee they'll want to eat it again and again!"

"Okay." Shen He nodded and packed up the remaining food.

"This is definitely not enough to give to the immortals. I'll cook a few more side dishes for you to take with you!"

Xiangling got right to work, picking up the leftover ingredients from processing the wild boar and starting to prepare them.

Heat the oil in a wok, and in no time, a plate of stir-fried pork liver is ready.

Besides stir-fried pork liver, there's also boiled pork heart, stir-fried pork tripe with eggs, and tender pork tripe...

If there had been enough time, Xiangling would have slaughtered those two pheasants and made chicken soup.

After packing all the vegetables into the food box, Xiangling wiped the sweat from her forehead, feeling extremely accomplished.

"I don't know what flavors the immortals like, so I made several different flavors..."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome!"

"I'll take it to my master first."

The food is still hot now; it will inevitably lose some of its flavor once it cools down.

It just so happens that her master is a guest at the cave dwelling of the True Lord of Moon-Shaving and Sun-Building in Jueyun, so she can come and go quickly.

"go Go!"

Seeing Shen He leave, the group lay down on chairs under the shade of the trees and sat by the stream, enjoying a pleasant afternoon.

"So, what birthday gift have you prepared for this master? Hurry up and show it to me."

Walnut couldn't wait to receive the gift.

"I've prepared a brocade umbrella embroidered with red plum blossoms for you." Xingqiu took out his gift.

These are the umbrellas they sell; they can neither shield you from the sun nor from the rain, and are only good for hanging on the wall as decorations.

However, luxury goods should not be designed for practicality.

Walnut happily put it away.

Although this umbrella is not very useful, it is valuable. Hanging it in the lobby makes it a prominent feature.

"Here's a Wanmintang free meal voucher for you!" Xiangling slapped Hu Tao's outstretched hand, but didn't take anything out.

"Ha! I'll remember that! Don't blame me for going all out on the expensive stuff later."

"No, no." Xiangling crossed her arms. Was she that kind of person?

"Peach charm for warding off evil spirits".

Chongyun hadn't regained his senses yet. He tossed the peach charm to Hu Tao, his words tinged with smugness.

"I made this myself. It contains a wisp of pure Yang energy that I sealed within. With it, all evil spirits will retreat, and no one will dare to approach!"

"The item is good, but no evil spirits would dare to provoke this hall master." Hu Tao happily accepted it.

Although she doesn't need it, the other ceremonial attendants can.

Dealing with funerals all day long, some of the funeral attendants inevitably carry a lot of yin energy, and as they get older, they often feel cold. This is just right for them.

"Hey Chongyun, do you have any more peachwood charms? Could you give me a few more?"

"Yes, we do, but we can't give them away for free!"

Chongyun clutched his waist pouch to prevent some shameless bastard from snatching it.

"However, I'll take it all! But you have to infuse it with pure Yang energy, otherwise it'll be useless."

"Alright then, I'll charge you 1,000 Mora for one." Chongyun took out his item and immediately began to infuse it with pure Yang energy.

At this moment, Hu Tao looked at Guoba and reached out her hand in Guoba's bewildered gaze.

"Guoba, where's your gift?"

Guoba's eyes widened. Was it going to give a gift too?

Chapter 186 Master, I've brought you something delicious!

A celestial abode nestled amidst the clouds.

Shen He carried a food box and walked straight into the barrier set up by the immortal.

The Immortal's Cave is a small space created by immortals. From the outside, it may seem like just a small cave, but once you pass through the restrictions and enter, you will find that it is a hidden paradise.

A misty white fog, like clouds and fog, spread throughout the cave. Walking in felt like being in the clouds, but when you stepped on it, you didn't feel the floating sensation of stepping into the clouds; instead, you felt solid ground.

A bright red sun hung in the sky above the cave, but it was different from the sun outside. It was as if the sun outside had been imprinted into the cave by a special method.

A tall, sprawling tree grows above the clouds, its unrestrained growth and outstretched branches contrasting beautifully with the red sun in the sky.

The prototype of Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun is a giant crane, while the master of the cave, Xiaoyue Zhuyang Zhenjun, is a deer.

They were standing under the tree, chatting with each other.

"Master, True Lord Xiaoyue," Shen He called out and walked over.

"Shen He, have you finished your cultivation?" Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun, in crane form, spoke, his gaze falling on the food box she was carrying.

She knew her apprentice all too well; he ate wildflowers and herbs from the mountains and was not good at socializing, so it was impossible for him to be carrying a food box.

Suddenly someone came over carrying a food box. What happened?

"I made some friends in Jueyun, and they asked me to bring some food for my masters to try."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing Shen He say that he had made friends, Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun felt a sense of excitement, as if his introverted little brat had finally made friends, but at the same time, he was also very worried.

However, given her personality, she naturally couldn't express this emotion directly, but instead asked further questions:

"What kind of friend? What's their character like? How did you meet them? Are they good or bad?"

She knew her own disciple better than anyone. Although he had grown up, he had lived in the mountains for more than ten years, far removed from human life, so he naturally had no idea of ​​the wickedness of people's hearts.

In addition, the red rope binding her soul restricted her emotions, and her years of solitary cultivation in the mountains caused her personality to become increasingly indifferent and aloof, and she also lacked common sense and experience.

Upon hearing that she had made friends, Master Liuyun Jiefeng was both happy and worried.

The good news is that my disciple has made friends and won't be so lonely anymore, but the bad news is quite something.

What if this friend has ulterior motives, and is deliberately befriending her because she values ​​her status as a disciple of a celestial being, intending to use her later?

"Yes, how did you two meet?" True Monarch Xiaoyue Zhuyang asked with equal concern.

Shen He was someone they watched grow up and who was taught by all of them, so how could they not worry?

Knowing what they were worried about, Shen He put down the food box and slowly recounted how he met them.

"I was just cultivating in the mountains when I heard a commotion nearby, so I went to check it out. They were catching a large wild boar, preparing to make it into a crispy roasted pig over charcoal..."

She remembered that Xiangling called this dish that.

"Among the group was Hu Tao, the head of the Rebirth Hall, whom I had encountered several times in the mountains. Seeing that they couldn't catch him, I threw down a talisman to freeze the wild boar..."

Upon hearing about the Hall of Rebirth, the two immortals felt much relieved.

As an organization that once fought alongside immortals against evil spirits, the descendants of Wangshengtang are naturally trustworthy.

But I'm still very curious about what happened next.

"and then?"

"Then someone from my original family recognized me, called me 'Auntie,' and invited me to have dinner with them..."

There's not much to say about what happened after that; it was just watching them fool around, chat, and cook.

"He asked me how I was doing in the mountains, and whether my master treated me well. I didn't answer, but he still wanted to drag me to my master to demand justice..."

When this was mentioned, a faint smile appeared on Shen He's lips.

Although it was her first time meeting this nephew, she could sense his concern for her.

That child has a pure and innocent heart.

"How dare you! Would I, a celestial being, mistreat the child I raised?!"

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun snorted, but there was no anger in her words.

From Shen He's brief words, she was certain that the people she knew had no ill intentions and were people worth befriending.

And since the other party was only worried about Shen He, she naturally wouldn't be angry about it.

But the airs of an immortal must still be maintained.

"Hahahaha, Liu Yun, you've been underestimated!" True Monarch Xiaoyue Zhuyang laughed loudly.

“You are also Shen He’s teacher, and this doesn’t just refer to me.”

"No, no, Shen He has performed the apprenticeship ceremony with you, so naturally he is seeking justice from you..."

Accustomed to his masters' bickering, Shen He opened the food box and took out the food trays one by one, placing them on the stone table.

"I've tried this crispy roasted pork, and it tastes great, though it's a bit spicy. They say it loses a lot of its flavor when it cools down, so please try it while it's still hot, Master."

As soon as the food box was opened, a fragrant aroma wafted out. Smelling this aroma, how could True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng resist? His gaze kept drifting in this direction.

Seeing that Shen He had set out the bowls and chopsticks, she transformed into human form and said demurely, "This immortal will give it a try."

"I haven't eaten human food in a long time," said True Lord Xiaoyue Zhuyang with a sigh, transforming into human form and sitting on the other side of the stone table.

Looking at the table full of food, he nodded and praised it.

"They've put their heart into it."

This must have been carefully prepared; otherwise, how could there be so much leftover food?

The True Lord of Moon-Cut-and-Build-Sun took out a pot of fine wine that had been stored in the cave for a long time and began to eat the dishes with the wine.

Seeing that they were enjoying their meal, Shen He said something and left the cave.
