Out of fear of death, Invest Everything into Health-Chapter 364 - 171: I’m Just an Immortal Farmer, That’s All (Part 3)
Then, she had to greet them with a smile, sweetly say some words of gratitude, and perfectly display the etiquette and customs of the Immortal Dao Noble Clan.
The atmosphere suffocated her.
She endured until noon passed, the Sword Ceremony concluded, and the banquet began.
Various immortal dishes were brought in one after another from outside. The variety was overwhelming and dazzling, made with the finest ingredients by top-class Immortal Chefs, boasting impeccable efficacy. Toasts were exchanged, music played, displaying the full grandeur of a noble clan.
The patriarch of this generation of the Luo Family, Luo Tianyuan, sat at the head seat, ready to announce the start of the feast.
Luo Zijin suddenly stepped forward and whispered something.
A glint flashed through Luo Tianyuan’s deep, old eyes, "Is there really such a matter?"
Luo Zijin smiled and said, "Great-grandfather, Little Sister Qingyao is very dedicated to her cultivation, meticulous, which led to her extraordinary Sword Dao. As her elder brother who watched her grow up, I naturally feel for her, and thought this might make her happier. I feared any mishap, so I personally went to cultivate fields, selected ingredients, and discussed cooking methods with the chefs. It took nearly half a year of fuss."
Luo Tianyuan, having been the patriarch for so long, understood the underlying meaning, pondered briefly, and then laughed, "Zijin has put in a lot of thought, not bad at all. Let them bring it up."
Seeing his great-grandfather’s attitude, Luo Zijin couldn’t help but be pleased and quickly called for someone to bring the dishes.
Luo Tianyuan said to Luo Qingyao, who was beside him, "Qingyao, your Brother Zijin really has your interests at heart."
Luo Qingyao didn’t dare to lose her temper in front of her great-grandfather, so she could only force a smile, while in her heart she thought viciously, Luo Zijin, just you wait. I will make sure to disparage the immortal dishes that you ’fussed over for half a year’ until there’s nothing left to criticize! After all, it’s not me who’ll be embarrassed!
Pang Da Xian Chef led people to bring up a table of dishes.
The guests were all curious about what kind of immortal dishes were specially prepared for today’s main character.
When the dishes were set, everyone took a look and was momentarily stunned. Because these immortal dishes looked so different from what they were used to eating. Most of them had lived their whole lives in this Immortal Land and had never seen mortal dishes.
Although they had never seen them, those qualified to attend the banquet had high cultivation and could naturally feel the unique Innate Dao Charm belonging to the immortal foods.
Luo Qingyao was stunned, staring blankly at the table of immortal dishes.
Moon Immortal Vegetable with Goose Meat, Dragon Twin Pepper Rabbit, Yangluo Flower Stewed Barbarian Blood Pig Trotter, Blanched Abyss Spirit Shrimp...
She had seen these dishes.
Every single one was as she remembered, even the plating was identical.
Patriarch Luo Tianyuan smiled and asked, "Qingyao, are these to your liking?"
Luo Qingyao pursed her lips without speaking.
Luo Zijin said, "Little Sister Qingyao, give them a try."
Luo Qingyao glanced at Luo Zijin, biting her lip and thought... No! No! These private recipes of Senior Brother, how could these people possibly recreate them! They are definitely all appearance with none of the true flavor that Senior Brother could achieve!
It must be like that!
She cautiously picked up a pair of chopsticks as white as jade, clamped a piece of goose meat, and put it in her mouth. The moment the flavor burst forth, her spirit trembled, pupils contracted, and then delighted.
This surprise wasn’t concealed, and everyone else felt it too.
Beside her, Luo Zijin was inwardly overjoyed, thinking, Little Sister Qingyao, I never thought you would truly like this taste. He turned to Pang Da Xian Chef with a look of praise.
This look, however, made Pang Da Xian Chef break out in a cold sweat.
Luo Qingyao then tried every dish, and her fingers were trembling. Luo Ling Immortal, her elder sister, was the first to notice and slightly narrowed her eyes.
"Little Sister Qingyao, how about it? Is it what you wanted to eat?" Luo Zijin asked.
Luo Qingyao ignored him, staring straight at Pang Da Xian Chef, her gaze sharp, "Did you make these dishes?"
Luo Zijin interjected, "It was the result of our joint research, right, Pang Da Xian Chef?"
Pang Da Xian Chef knew that this was the time to just nod, the rest would be taken care of by Lord Jin, and he would surely receive a generous reward afterward.
However... however...
He felt extremely bitter inside.
He couldn’t help but recall Fan Wubing’s utterly dedicated demeanor when cooking immortal dishes. That master genuinely loved immortal food... and what do I love?
At eight years old, when he first started cooking, his master asked him, "Pang Shechuan, why did you pick up the ladle?" His answer was, "I like cooking!"
"Pang Da Xian Chef?" Luo Zijin’s voice brought him back to reality.
Pang Da Xian Chef shuddered, his eyes bursting with determination, as if he had resolved something. He took a deep breath and answered calmly:
"Lord Yao, these immortal dishes were not made by this humble chef. My skills are not refined enough to balance the color, aroma, flavor, and efficacy of immortal dishes."
"Pang Da Xian Chef!" Luo Zijin’s neck stiffened, his breath quickened, and his eyes widened.
Pang Da Xian Chef dared not look at him and recounted the whole story word by word.
The room fell silent.
Luo Tianyuan noticed the atmosphere wasn’t right and quickly announced the banquet’s start to divert attention. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Here, Luo Qingyao suddenly became extremely agitated and asked, "Where is that person now?"
Pang Da Xian Chef said, "He should still be over at the kitchen."
As soon as he spoke, a sword momentum burst forth in the room. The sword momentum turned into an arc of light, directly flew out of the banquet, disregarding etiquette and rules, heading straight for the island where the kitchen was located.
"Qingyao!" Luo Zijin quickly pursued her.
The incident happened so abruptly that even Luo Tianyuan, the patriarch, was somewhat unprepared.
Beside him, Luo Ling Immortal laughed and said to Pang Da Xian Chef, "Fortunately, you told the truth, otherwise, you would have been charged with deceiving Great-grandfather."
Luo Tianyuan’s whiskers trembled, "Ling Xian, what exactly is happening?"
Luo Ling Immortal considered the Luo Family’s dignity and decided not to speak directly in front of everyone, instead using Divine Soul Communication to relay the entire story accurately.
After listening, Luo Tianyuan’s face immediately turned sullen.
He didn’t erupt in anger, instead, he hurriedly raised a cup of fine wine, toasted the guests, and swiftly controlled the scene to avoid showing any weakness.
