Chapter 27

Bai Wuchen only felt his mouth dry and his scalp tingle.

He had discovered something truly significant!

He picked up another piece of cabbage, blanched it, and put it in his mouth.

He chewed slightly, and the juice of the cabbage splashed out, instantly filling his mouth with fragrance.

Immediately after, a wave of Dao韵 (Dao韵 refers to the essence or rhythm of the Dao, a concept in Chinese philosophy) also rushed into his mind, making his whole body tremble!

That's right, the vegetables actually contained Dao韵!

Bai Wuchen was so excited that goosebumps covered his body, and his eyes shone as he stared at the vegetables.

That's it, this must be a test set by a great master!

The great master had specially prepared meat and vegetables. Although the meat was from demons, the vegetables were the most precious things.

Everyone's attention was likely to be on the demon meat, thus overlooking the vegetables, missing out on a great opportunity.

"I am really stupid. I knew the world of great masters is full of tests, but I only realized it now." Bai Wuchen sighed inwardly, then picked up another piece of mushroom and put it in the pot.

Zhao Shanhe and the others were enjoying the meat so much that they soon noticed Bai Wuchen's unusual behavior.

What's wrong with this guy? He has been eating vegetables since just now?

"Xiaoming, what are you doing? Not eating meat anymore?" Zhao Shanhe finally couldn't help but ask.

Demon meat isn't something you can find easily, and it also contains a bit of spiritual energy.

Bai Wuchen smiled generously, "I like vegetables. Leave the meat for you guys, don't be polite with me."

After saying that, he picked up a large serving of green vegetables for himself.

"Daughter, Su Ya, you shouldn't just focus on the meat. You should also eat vegetables, pay attention to a balanced diet." Bai Wuchen reminded them.

Zhao Shanhe looked at Bai Wuchen suspiciously.

There's something fishy!

Definitely something fishy.

He laughed coldly. How could there be any secrets when everyone is eating at the same table?

Then, he also blanched a bunch of cabbage.

"Could the vegetables be better than the meat? I'll try it out."

Zhao Shanhe thought to himself, picked up a piece of cabbage, and put it in his mouth.

"Ugh, cough, cough, cough."

The vegetables were spicy, making him cough.

"Vegetables are best when cooked in the bone broth at the bottom of the pot. Spicy ones are not good." Li Nianfan smiled and reminded him.

Shouldn't cultivators have a low demand for food? Why are they so eager here?

"Mr. Li, I apologize." Zhao Shanhe said embarrassedly, but his eyes were full of shock.

Dao韵, it must have been Dao韵 just now!

That guy Bai Wuchen is not nice. He kept this to himself and ate so many vegetables secretly.

Zhao Shanhe's eyes instantly turned red, and he started to quickly pick up and chew vegetables.

Bai Wuchen was not to be outdone, and the two of them engaged in a fierce struggle over the vegetables, their faces turning red and their necks swelling.

If it weren't for Li Nianfan, they might have come to blows.

This situation was soon noticed by Lin Qingyun and the others. Out of curiosity, they also started eating vegetables.

This is...

Lin Qingyun was completely stunned.

If the previous deliciousness made her marvel, this directly overturned her worldview.

The vegetables actually contained Dao韵, how is that possible?

Dao韵 is something that cultivators can only hope to encounter, ethereal and elusive, like an enlightenment, intangible and invisible.

To come into contact with Dao韵, one can only rely on a stroke of luck.

But now, one can obtain Dao韵 just by eating.

Terrifying, unbelievable!

No one would believe it if it were told.

"That's right, the demon meat we hunted is just ordinary demon meat, but these vegetables are something Mr. Li provided himself! In other words, this is what immortals should eat! I was so stupid to only focus on the meat and ignore the vegetables provided by the immortal!"

Lin Qingyun looked at the vegetables on the table, which had already been mostly consumed by Bai Wuchen and Zhao Shanhe, and her face twitched with pain.

How much Dao韵 is that!

She was usually reserved, but now she could no longer remain calm. Even though she was a fairy, she joined the group in the food fight.

The sudden change in direction made Li Nianfan slightly surprised, "You're not eating meat anymore?"

"Mr. Li, we can just eat vegetables." Bai Wuchen hurriedly said.

Zhao Shanhe, while eating green vegetables, said, "Mr. Li, I found that vegetables are the best. You don't need to worry about me."

"Mr. Li, I have always liked vegetables the most." Su Ya also said.

Li Nianfan shook his head and didn't bother with them.

It seems that the cultivators in this world are not only friendly but also quite peculiar.

After the meal, Bai Wuchen and the others felt warm all over, more comfortable than any elixir or nourishing medicine.

Bai Wuchen stood up and solemnly bowed to Li Nianfan, "Mr. Li, this is the best meal I have ever had. Please accept my gratitude!"

"Mr. Li, I am deeply grateful. Although I have only a little cultivation, if you need anything, just say it!" Zhao Shanhe also said.

The others also expressed their thanks, their faces full of sincerity and reverence.

Although they had been constantly reminding themselves to treat Li Nianfan as an ordinary person and maintain a normal attitude, at this moment, they really couldn't stay calm.

How can ordinary people remain calm when they meet immortals?

Li Nianfan frowned slightly, "It's just a hot pot. What are you talking about gratitude? What are you rambling about?"

These people were fine just a moment ago, what's wrong with their heads now?

"Mr. Li, your meal is really too good. We couldn't help but lose our composure." Bai Wuchen hurriedly said.

"Making a fuss over nothing." Li Nianfan huffed, cultivators are not as good as ordinary people.

Bai Wuchen and the others didn't dare to breathe, repeatedly apologizing.

Sigh, it's all my fault for being too excited and upsetting the great master.

The great master wants to cultivate as an ordinary person, I must not violate his taboos in the future.

Although it was just a meal, Dao韵 filled their entire bodies, circulating around them.

Because they needed to return to seclusion to digest it, they said goodbye to Li Nianfan and hurriedly left.

Outside the quadrangle, Zhao Shanhe looked at Bai Wuchen solemnly, "Bai Wuchen, you introduced me to Mr. Li, I am deeply grateful! Thank you!"

Such a great favor is like giving a great opportunity, truly beyond repayment.

"How are you feeling? Your aura seems to be about to break through?" Bai Wuchen smiled.

"I will try when I get back. Breaking through should not be a problem." Zhao Shanhe stroked his beard and smiled with his eyes closed.

With the help of such a great master, even a pig could become an immortal.

Bai Wuchen laughed heartily, "Hahaha, I look forward to your good news."

They parted ways at the foot of the mountain, turning back to look at the mountain reverently, already considering it a holy place in their hearts!

On another mountain not far from this one.

Two snow-white foxes jumped onto a tree, their soft fur fluttering in the wind, staring blankly at the distant horizon.

The most striking thing was that one had nine tails, and the other had six tails, standing upright in the sky, slowly swaying left and right, both eerie and holy.
