Next, the old man told Lin Xiu about how he and Liu Cheng met.
At the time, the two of them had just arrived in Shouzhou City. Because of some special circumstances, the two of them had become disheartened. They had decided to come to a city and live alone for the rest of their lives. However, they hadn't expected that one day, when the two of them were taking a walk outside the city, they would hear the cries of a child by a river.
The two of them were very kind, of course, they couldn't watch a baby lose his life like that, so they brought him home and taught him carefully.
Although this child was abandoned by his biological parents, his talent in cultivation was extremely strong. His realm improved by leaps and bounds, causing the couple to be extremely astonished.
Although the growth of a child had a lot to do with the surrounding environment, the conduct of the two old men was undoubtedly worthy of respect. But for some reason, this young man named Liu Cheng liked to cause trouble since he was young.
When he was four or five years old, he dared to fight with children who were ten years old. When he became an adult, he didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth and started to bully some weak people because he was very strong.
The couple tried their best to persuade him, but it didn't have the slightest effect. By chance, Liu Cheng also joined the army under Yao Kun.
Originally, the couple was happy to see this happen because the army was the best place to hone a person's temperament. If he entered the army, he might be able to hone his temperament.
However, good things did not last long. Because Liu Cheng was very strong, and because of his talent in cultivation, no one could compare to him, he quickly made battle contributions. In the end, with the resources Yao Kun gave him, he quickly broke through to the Dao Comprehension Realm.
Since he had achieved success, Liu Cheng of course wanted to return to his hometown and show off, so he came to the old man's shop again. Originally, the reunion of father and son after a long time was naturally a happy thing, but this person named Liu Cheng was somewhat dissatisfied with his current status.
According to convention, any powerhouse who reached the enlightenment realm and had a certain amount of military achievements could apply to Yao Kun to have their own fiefdom.
But at that time, the hundreds of cities under Yao Kun's command already had owners and really couldn't take out any more fiefdoms, so Liu Cheng turned his attention to Shou Zhou City Lord Lin Ping.
Liu Cheng happily told his adoptive parents about his plan. However, he didn't expect to be reprimanded by them.
Even though Liu Cheng had always been vicious and merciless to his enemies, he didn't dare to be the slightest bit pretentious in front of the husband and wife who had raised him. Thus, he completely transferred his rage onto the Shouzhou City Lord.
What happened next was logical. Liu Cheng sneaked into the city lord's residence and then fought with Lin Ping.
Although he had only just entered the realm of enlightenment, the process was the tempering of blood and fire. Powerhouses who rose rapidly from it were far beyond Lin Ping's reach in terms of power control. After a round of battle, he quickly fell into a disadvantageous position.
Lin Ping was seriously injured, so he naturally fled frantically. He knew that the only people who could protect his life in Shou Zhou City were the old couple.
Therefore, Lin Ping didn't hesitate to use a secret technique that damaged his foundation in order to make himself extremely fast. He quickly arrived at the shop where the old couple were.
Liu Cheng naturally didn't want to see a cooked duck fly away so easily. He ignored the couple's obstruction and prepared to cut off Lin Ping's hand with his knife.
Unexpectedly, at the last moment, the chef's old man erupted with extremely powerful strength that was comparable to the peak of enlightenment realm powerhouses. He forcefully stopped Liu Cheng's attack.
This kind of situation naturally made everyone stunned. Liu Cheng never thought that the seemingly honest chef would actually have such an ability.
After the old man made his move, the storm finally dissipated. However, not long after, the old man fell seriously ill.
During that period of time, Liu Cheng stayed by the old man's side. It was easy for him to see the old man's kindness in raising him.
This matter was caused by the Shou Zhou City Lord. Therefore, when he learned that the old man was seriously ill, he immediately brought all the precious medicinal ingredients in his house to see if they could help the old man.
However, he didn't expect the old man to reveal his true identity. It turned out that he was the legendary Culinary God. However, because of a tragic incident, he had no choice but to conceal his identity and come to Shou Zhou City.
Anyone who was given the title of God by others had reached the pinnacle of skill in a certain aspect. After Liu Cheng learned of his adoptive father's true identity, he couldn't help but let out a sigh.
According to the rumors, the reason the Culinary God concealed his identity was because he provoked an extremely powerful enemy. His cultivation base was not even 10% of it. This time, he erupted with strength that was comparable to the peak of enlightenment realm powerhouses. It must have had a very big impact on him.
However, the old man was very open-minded when it came to life and death. Moreover, after a period of time, his body actually recovered at an unbelievable speed. However, no one knew that this price was the true decline of the old man, and he became an ordinary old man.
From a certain perspective, the life of the Shou Zhou City Lord was bestowed by the old man. Therefore, after Liu Cheng left Shou Zhou City, Lin Ping had been constantly protecting the safety of the small restaurant.
After Lin Xiu learned of the truth of the matter, he couldn't help but sigh. He didn't expect that this seemingly unprepossessing old man was actually a famous powerhouse in the continent.
However, the reason why the old man sighed was because the matter of Liu Cheng's betrayal of Yao Kun had reached his ears.
"I really don't understand, what's so good about fighting and killing. That child has always liked to cause trouble since he was young. Now, he even provoked an existence that he can't compare to at the moment."
The old man was in a trance. If the old man was still in his peak state, a mere Yao Kun would definitely not be in his eyes.
But at this moment, he had truly become a cripple. No matter what, Liu Cheng was still his child. Of course, he couldn't just watch as this child was forced to death by Yao Kun's inescapable net.
The old man sat opposite Lin Xiu and raised his teacup. After taking a sip, he stared into Lin Xiu's eyes.
