Chapter 44 The True Inheritance of the Sect
Upon hearing this, Young Master Xu narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly:
"These people have nothing to do with Miss Qin, but that doesn't mean this matter is unrelated."
Qin Chengcheng probably doesn't have the wisdom to create such a complicated recruitment process. Investigate who's helping her behind the scenes.
"Young master has excellent insight! I will take care of it immediately."
"Also, give me more detailed information about the woman Qin Chengcheng protected a while ago."
Upon hearing this, Dong Chang'an's eyes lit up: "Young Master, that Huo San Niang must be related to the sect's lost body-refining technique, the Vajra Technique. You've come here to investigate this matter, right? If we dig deeper into her, we'll surely find the person."
"Don't talk back. What I do is none of your business."
Is a mere escaped warrior from a sect worthy of my personal investigation? He has his own people from the Enforcement Hall to handle him.
"Without my orders, you are not allowed to harm anyone around Qin Chengcheng. If you ruin Qin Xianzi's impression of me, I will hold you accountable!"
"I dare not."
After their conversation ended, Xu Shixian's eyes suddenly lit up. Seeing Qin Chengcheng's ethereal beauty below, he immediately stepped onto a flying sword gleaming with jewel-like light and flew swiftly and steadily towards Qin Chengcheng.
"Haha, Fairy Qin, what a coincidence! I was sent here by my sect to patrol, and I never expected to run into Fairy Qin again!"
A chance encounter?
Qin Chengcheng knew exactly what Xu Shixian meant. He was a descendant of a sect elder and possessed a special dual cultivation technique. He valued the benefits of the dual cultivation of sound and Dao during Qin Chengcheng's first soul ritual for improving his magical power and the quality of his soul.
Seeing the persistent pest arrive, Qin Chengcheng sighed inwardly, then forced a smile:
"Young Master Xu, your presence is an honor. I am deeply sorry for not greeting you properly."
"No, no, no, it is an honor for our sect that Fairy Qin would be willing to stay in our lowly market!"
Is the fairy recruiting spirit chefs because she's dissatisfied with the local restaurants and seafood?
I happened to have also learned culinary skills at the sect, and now I can prepare a first-tier spiritual banquet, as well as a few signature dishes. How about I stay at the Wonderful Sound Pavilion and cook exclusively for the fairy?
Young Master Xu wore a magnificent purple robe, his hair was tied up with a jade crown, and several magical artifacts with spiritual light hung at his waist, each radiating spiritual pressure of at least the second rank.
He had a handsome face but a somewhat frivolous air about him. The gems on his flying sword were dazzling, and his luxurious aura made all the slovenly rogue cultivators in the market feel ashamed.
Upon hearing this, Qin Chengcheng lowered her beautiful eyes slightly, a faint smile barely curving her lips, her tone gentle yet distant:
"Young Master Xu is too kind. As a true disciple of the Jade Dragon Sect, how could you condescend to do kitchen work? If word got out, people would think that the Myriad Sounds Pavilion doesn't know its rules."
Before he could finish speaking, Xu Shixian suddenly burst into loud laughter, the jade pendant at his waist jingling with his exaggerated movements:
"Hahaha! Fairy Qin, why be so formal?"
With a flick of his sleeve, the array master behind him, who had remained silent until now, immediately made a hand seal, and the eighteen array flags disappeared into the ground like swimming fish.
Instantly, spiritual energy surged in the center of the market. The second-tier spiritual vein cave that had been destroyed was revived like a spring stream thawing. The second-tier spiritual pressure swept across the entire street like a spring breeze.
"This dilapidated market town is no match for a fairy!"
"Since Fairy Qin has graced my Jade Dragon Sect with her presence, I, Xu, must entertain her properly. How can an ordinary first-order spiritual vein be worthy of a fairy?"
Please give me about a month to restore the fairy's second-tier spiritual veins. Then I will allow the Myriad Sounds Pavilion to move in. The rent will be waived for the duration the fairy stays.
Young Master Xu's generosity left everyone in the audience speechless.
Second-tier spiritual vein cave, advanced array master?
Each of these points is something that these independent cultivators could never achieve in their entire lives.
Chen Yi and Liu Chenggang stood at the edge of the crowd, looking up at the dazzling sect disciple in mid-air.
Liu Chenggang's eyes gleamed with envy as he sighed softly, "Only a great figure like her, who has the potential to form a Core Formation, is worthy of Fairy Qin, Little Chen. We lowly cultivators can only look up to her in awe."
Chen Yi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, but did not reply.
His gaze was calm and still, showing no interest in the spotlight he commanded.
The world of cultivation is ever-changing, and life-or-death tribulations can occur at any time. Even if he has strength and treasures, he always keeps them hidden.
Such a blatant display is tantamount to exposing one's trump cards to potential enemies, thus increasing the risk.
Liu Chenggang suddenly remembered that Chen Yi had just successfully applied for the position of spirit chef, and turned to look at Chen Yi with a hint of mockery in his eyes:
"Little Chen, I never knew you had such culinary skills! You've even managed to infiltrate the fairies' inner circle!"
He rubbed his hands together and lowered his voice, saying, "If I had that ability, I would definitely fight to the death for it. If I could admire the Jade Zither Fairy's face every day, it would be worth sacrificing a few years of my life!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yi couldn't help but recall a job posting from his previous life—a high-end club was hiring a chef with a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan, plus four nights a month, and a complimentary all-inclusive service from four club technicians.
At this moment, Liu Chenggang's eyes were clearly filled with similar thoughts.
He quickly shook his head, feigning nonchalance, and said, "Brother Liu, you jest. I have no interest in women. I'm just an old man, and all I ask for is a peaceful life for the rest of my days."
He paused, then added, "Besides, I only work in the backyard of Miaoyin Pavilion. There's an isolation array between me and the fairies. I only interact with the old nanny who serves the dishes. We never see each other at all."
As he spoke, he nodded to himself—he would have to mention it to Qin Chengcheng later and have her formally add this rule.
Since that young master Xu is such a troublesome person, it's better to dispel his doubts at the root of the problem to avoid future complications.
In any case, for Miaoyinfang, setting up an isolation array on short notice is just a piece of cake.
After entering the Myriad Sounds Pavilion, both the No. 1 Spirit Chef and the No. 2 Spirit Chef, Chen Yi, were assigned to separate courtyards.
The other three spirit chefs are responsible for the meals of the ordinary fairies and live together.
Chef Yang, also known as Fatty Yang, is in charge of serving the top VIPs at Miaoyin Pavilion.
On the surface, Chen Yi was in charge of providing spiritual food for several head fairies, but in reality, under Qin Chengcheng's covert influence, Chen Yi only needed to be in charge of providing spiritual food for her alone.
Chen Yi's fingertips lightly traced the texture of the mid-grade first-tier demon beast meat on the cutting board, his brows furrowing slightly. He looked up at Qin Chengcheng, who was sipping tea, and carefully chose his words:
"Fairy, these ordinary demon beast meats are easy to process, but..."
"Just what?" Qin Chengcheng put down her teacup and glanced at her sideways.
"It's just that I'm better at handling higher-grade ingredients, such as top-grade first-tier ingredients, especially those mutated demonic beasts with special bloodlines."
Chen Yi's voice lowered: "Of course, it would be even better if we could have a demon beast that has just entered the second tier."
He became a little embarrassed at the end.
Second-tier monsters are extremely valuable and difficult to obtain.
Its flesh and blood essence is pure and its spiritual energy is rich. If one can devour and refine it, it will surely cause a qualitative leap in the golden radiance within the body.
He had his eye on second-tier demonic beasts for a long time.
With Liu Chenggang's abilities, he wouldn't even need to think about the talisman shop.
But with Qin Chengcheng, Chen Yi could cautiously try to bring it up, just in case.
Anyway, we'll see what happens, whether there are any good opportunities or not.
As a result, Qin Chengcheng became furious after hearing this.
"Chen Yi! Do you think I'm some kind of laborer who hunts monsters for you?"
