Chapter 110 - Glowing Food
Luo Shiyu whispered to Qin Manyun in excitement, “Sister Manyun, we’re in luck!”
Qin Manyun looked at her. “You mean…this meal?”
“Yes!” Luo Shiyu nodded in anticipation. “I’ve always wanted to eat here again. I finally got the chance to do so!”
“You know, the first time I met Mr. Li, I had the pleasure to taste the watermelon. The feeling was just…wow! So yummy! More importantly, the watermelon even contained Insights and Spiritual Qi. Though it wasn’t much, I was able to break through to Foundation Building! The second time I came here with my mother, I tasted the leopard meat, the taste…just thinking of it…argh! I’m drooling!”
Luo Shiyu wiped the drool off the corner of her mouth. Her face already betrayed her and exposed her love for food!
Qin Manyun nodded. She was full of anticipation, too. Though, she was thinking more than that.
Although she had not tasted the expert’s food, she had tasted the tea. The tea was able to enlighten one’s mind. Even the air in this building was made of pure Spiritual Qi. Of course, one could only imagine how precious and luxurious the food could be!
Was this the happiness of being a bigshot?
The two of them sat up straight. Out of boredom, they started observing Xiao Bai who was preparing lunch.
They saw Xiao Bai take out a water pipe and started washing and rubbing the Abalone Demon, cleaning its body.
Wush!
The water flowed continuously. However, the sound of the water sounded sharp and almost painful to the two ladies. It was as if the water was stabling their hearts.
Spiritual Water! This was Spiritual Water!
Using Spiritual Water to clean the abalone? What was that all about?
As they stared at the wasted Spiritual Water splashing on the ground, their brains lost the ability to function!
The amount of Spiritual Water wasted was probably way more valuable than the abalone itself!
What right did this Abalone Demon have to get the chance to bath in Spiritual Water!? Its death was so worth it!
Meanwhile, some of the Spiritual Water splashed onto Qin Manyun’s face. Instinctively, she stuck out her tongue to lick it.
How sweet and refreshing, with a hint of Spiritual Qi!
This made her shiver. If it was not for the last traces of dignity left in her, she would have bent over and licked the floor.
Luo Shiyu had the same buzzing noise in her brain. She watched the water spluttering onto the ground, flowing to the paws of an ordinary black dog.
However, without even looking at it, the black dog stood up arrogantly and walked away. Its face was full of disdain as if annoyed by the water wetting its fur.
The Spiritual Water…annoyed a dog?!
Luo Shiyu rubbed her eyes. She almost thought she imagined it. Unless the world…had changed?
Finally, under their intense gazes, Xiao bai turned off the water pipe and stopped washing.
Swiftly after, Xiao Bai looked at the Abalone Demon seriously. A chopping knife appeared in its hand. Then, it started slicing the abalone.
This Abalone Demon was in the pre-Distraction realm, so it had at least four to five thousand years of cultivation inside the water. Its meat was tough, but under Xiao Bai’s knife, it was sliced apart effortlessly like bubbles.
The huge abalone was cut into ten or so pieces with its shell removed as well. Luo Shiyu and Qin Manyun looked at Xiao Bai’s knife skills in awe.
Swiftly after, Xiao Bai brought out a casserole pot and filled it up with the Abalone Demon meat. It then poured in some Spiritual Water, put on the lid, and started to boil it.
While waiting, Xiao Bai did not slack off. It walked toward the Spiritual Herb bonsai in the inner court and nonchalantly plucked some leaves and flowers.
Its nonchalance turned the two ladies insane!
These were the top-grade Spiritual Herbs! How could it be plucked so carelessly? Nobody would believe them even if they told others about it.
Meanwhile, they started looking at Xiao Bai differently. This Spiritual Robot was too powerful! It was so skilled at cooking. The world of the expert was indeed beyond the imagination of ordinary minds!
Gulp! Gulp!
Heat started coming out of the casserole pot along with fragrant steam. Since the condiments were not yet in the pot, the fragrance was not as strong. Mysteriously, the abalone did not smell fishy. Instead, it had a faint fragrance of freshness.
Chop! Chop! Chop!
Xiao Bai raised the knife and started chopping up the Spiritual Herbs. Then, it tossed the herbs into the pot before covering it up with the lid again.
Boil! Boil! Boil!
Due to the thickness of the abalone meat, it was harder to cook it. The Dragon Fire Pearl kept spitting flames diligently, burning the Spiritual Wood to maintain the highest temperature.
Qin Manyun watched in terror. Any material used here sent chills all over her skin. The top-notch chef, Spiritual Water, Spiritual Herb, Spiritual Wood, a full set of Spiritual Cookware, and the matte black casserole pot! It had an ordinary outlook, but even though she did not know what treasure it was, she did not doubt that it was a Spiritual Item as well!
A meal prepared by the best treasures in the entire Immortal Realm. Who would believe her?
As time passed, more and more Spiritual Qi gathered inside the casserole pot. Instead of evaporating into the air, this special way of cooking allowed the Spiritual Qi to be retained inside the meat.
Gulp! Gulp! Gulp!
The soup boiled inside the pot, marinating the abalone slices in the thick and nutritious soup. Gradually, its fragrance started to fill the air. It was not as strong yet, but it was more alluring than before. A sniff of it could make one lose all self-control. It was impossible to forget!
Luo Shiyu and Qin Manyun closed their eyes, enjoying the fragrance in the air and relaxing their bodies and minds.
Xiao Bai called out to Li Nianfan, “Master, it’s about time. Would you like to eat now?”
Li Nianfan nodded and said calmly, “Sure.”
With that, Xiao Bai removed the lid of the pot.
Instantly, thick smoke rose from within the pot like a long-suppressed beast rushing out of its cage in rage!
The fragrance…burst out!
Gulp!
The two of them gulped again. It was as if the fragrance had solidified and penetrated their noses and condensed in their mouths. They could not help chewing the air and swallowing their saliva!
It appeared that as long as the fragrance was in the air, even their saliva tasted delicious!
They looked up and saw that through the smoke, there was a halo hovering above the pot!
They jolted. The food was glowing!?
