Food System in Cultivation World-Chapter 437 - 403

Naming this spirit drink is truly not a significant matter.

Originally, Chen Xu didn’t care at all.

But everyone present seemed to treat this as a highly important affair.

All eyes were on Chen Xu, as if waiting for his judgment.

At this moment, a stammering voice suddenly rang out:

"Dear seniors, about this... this spirit drink... Senior Sister Ye, Brother Zhou, Uncle Ge, have any of you thought?

This spirit drink, Brother Chen already has a name for it?"

Whoa!

A word to wake the dreamer.

Indeed, the spirit drink was made by Chen Xu on the spot, but that doesn’t mean it’s the first time he’s made such a spirit drink.

Looking at his smooth and practiced movements earlier, it seems likely that Chen Xu has made this drink hundreds of times before, hasn’t he?

If he’s made it hundreds of times, then surely there must already be a name for it?

Some of them were eager to name it, which could be seen as overstepping.

Ge Xing’s old face flushed a bit.

Ye Ningzhen didn’t blush, but she could no longer maintain her previously feigned serious expression, and quickly smiled:

"It was inconsiderate of us, being so delighted by the marvelous spirit drink that we lost our sense of proportion.

Junior Brother Chen, please don’t mind."

Chen Xu replied, "No worries, this thing... actually, I haven’t named it yet."

After all, people suspected he had made it hundreds of times.

But only he knew that it was actually his first time making this recipe of spirit drink.

So, the current spirit drink indeed did not have a name.

As he saw everyone’s eyes light up again, Chen Xu continued:

"Anyway, you can all drink this cup first, and after savoring its flavors, it won’t be too late to attempt naming it.

This is my first time making it, and I find it hard to name it at this moment.

If you can help, I would be truly grateful."

What?

Listening carefully, everyone’s attention shifted to Chen Xu’s statement of "making it for the first time."

Previously, everyone speculated that Chen Xu had made this spirit drink "hundreds of times," but it turned out to be mere conjecture!

Was it really his first time making it?

Zhou Hou was stunned.

Ye Ningzhen’s eyes sparkled, her eyebrows almost seemed to dance.

Ge Xing, initially surprised, was then delighted, and couldn’t contain himself anymore, reaching out through the air.

Immediately, a glass chalice fell into his hand.

At this time, Chen Xu just mentioned:

"I’ve only seen this Ice Crystal Fruit for the first time, and I’m not sure where it’s harvested from, or how to acquire it?"

Indeed, Chen Xu came from a small town outside the Immortal City.

Outside, how could he easily come across a rare fruit like Ice Crystal Fruit?

Though the Ice Crystal Fruit is merely a Ninth Grade Spirit Fruit, it’s not something common.

At least outside the Immortal City, it’s hard to come by.

Ge Xing held his glass chalice and drank from it.

Beside him, Ye Ningzhen hurriedly picked up a glass of spirit drink and did the same.

After all, she had long wanted to try it.

Ji Yang, on the other hand, was handed a cup by Chen Xu with a gentle push.

He was overjoyed, gulped, and drank cautiously.

Only Zhou Hou was about to drink his spirit liquid.

But his movements were simply too slow—

Or perhaps it wasn’t that he was slow, but that Ge Xing was too fast.

Just as Zhou Hou’s lips were about to touch the rim of the chalice, he suddenly felt pain in his palm.

His heart skipped a beat, his whole person felt as if crushed under an immensely heavy mountain.

Zhou Hou screamed, "Ah..."

He bent over, unable to stand upright.

His palm suddenly empty.

The chalice, his chalice was snatched!

And the one who took his chalice was Elder Ge Xing.

Ge Xing laughed heartily and said aloud, "Zhou Hou, you always eat without savoring. How about I take this cup of spirit drink, as an offering, and let your Master Hong taste it instead?

Zhou Hou, what do you say?"

Zhou Hou, bent over and on the brink of tears.

But at the mention of Master Hong, he was speechless all of a sudden.

Master Hong was the only remaining Sixth Grade Spirit Chef in the sect.

Ge Xing wanted to take Chen Xu’s spirit drink to Master Hong for tasting, clearly intending to give Chen Xu a step up.

What else could Zhou Hou say?

Could he possibly say "don’t take my drink, don’t let Master Hong taste it"?

But, ugh, it’s not like he was the only one with a cup of spirit drink; why did Uncle Ge have to snatch his?

Zhou Hou felt tears welling up inside...

He had no choice; it was best if they took it.

Zhou Hou, still bent over, forced a smile more miserable than crying, "Uncle Ge, please take it. I... I... it’s only right for a disciple like me.

The spirit drink was made by Brother Chen, and I was merely offering it as an offering."

Ge Xing laughed heartily again.

He patted Zhou Hou on the shoulder, took the spirit drink in hand, and turned to leave.

Upon reaching the center of the hall, he turned back and asked, "By the way, what should we name this spirit drink?"

This time, Ye Ningzhen, while savoring the spirit drink, had a joyful, content, and relaxed smile on her face.

The spirit drink melted like initial snow.

At first, it wasn’t sweet, but a refreshing coolness bloomed in the mouth.

That cool sensation seemed to penetrate deeply into the heart and soul.

As she drank, Ye Ningzhen felt as if her internal organs were being cleansed.

The wonder of it, even though the spirit drink was extremely cool, it brought warmth once it reached the stomach.

The Spiritual Qi then slowly spread.

As it is said, cool but not icy, penetrating but not damaging, precisely so.

Ye Ningzhen felt a marvelous feeling of rain after a prolonged drought, so absorbed that she forgot to speak at that moment.

Instead, it was Ji Yang, who usually lacked presence, who sipped a few drops of spirit liquid, and suddenly burst out:

"What a spirit drink, just like spring wind melting snow, how about naming it Spring Wind Melt Snow Drink?"

Chen Xu smiled: "Wonderful! Yes, a good name.

It should indeed be called Spring Wind Melt Snow Drink."

What, he really adopted the name Ji Yang casually offered?

The people present, Zhou Hou still bent and pained as if pressed by an invisible mountain.

But at this time, Zhou Hou’s gaze turned toward Ji Yang.

Ye Ningzhen, whose divine thoughts were scattered, also came back to her senses and cast her sight on Ji Yang.

So did Ge Xing.

Just at that moment,

...
