The object that Deng Tianyang threw out was a dazzling golden ring. The moment Gu Zheng saw it, the Artifact Spirit's disdainful voice rang out in his mind.
"A low-level consumable Immortal Device."
The Taishan Sect was also a big sect that had existed since the Flourishing Magic Era. The Taishan Sect had more than one or two Immortal Devices.
"Bang …"
The ring hit the Silver Wolf and made a muffled sound like a drum.
The Silver Wolf's strength was very powerful, but a Immortal Device was still a Immortal Device. The Silver Wolf could not deal with such a powerful Immortal Device at its current level. The Silver Wolf was sent flying, but the direction it was flying in was coincidentally facing Gu Zheng!
Without hesitation, Gu Zheng used the Mountain Splitting Palm to hit the Silver Wolf's head and knocked it to the ground.
However, Gu Zheng knew the Silver Wolf's strength, so he stayed at the outermost part of the encirclement to protect himself. There was no one beside him except for Gu An, who was his personal bodyguard. Although the Silver Wolf was killed by the Immortal Device, it only died when it was close to Gu Zheng.
For an existence like the Silver Wolf, it could be said that every part of its body was a treasure. No one would not want it! So the question was, how would they divide the Silver Wolf among so many people? According to the unwritten rule, the most precious thing on the Silver Wolf's body should be the one who launched the final attack and ended its life. That was why Gu Zheng still killed it even though he knew it was already dead.
The battle had ended. Most of the people looked at Gu Zheng with undisguised envy and jealousy. As for Deng Tianyang, who had taken out the Immortal Device, his gaze was more complicated.
"We have a rule before that the Silver Wolf belongs to the one who killed it last. In other words, the Demon Core of the Silver Wolf belongs to our Emei Sect!"
Elder Wuchou ran toward the Silver Wolf with a smile and announced his ownership in a loud voice.
"Wait!"
Deng Tianyang's voice sounded, and everyone's gaze fell on him.
As an expert at the late stage of the Fifth Layer, everyone had to follow the Taishan Sect to find the Millennium Snow Lotus. Deng Tianyang had a very high voice among this group of people.
Deng Tianyang waved his hand and recalled the Immortal Device that was floating in the air.
Looking at the cracked Immortal equipment, Deng Tianyang's heart ached! Every time a consumable Immortal Artifact was used, more cracks would appear on it. According to the current density of cracks, this Immortal Artifact would be completely destroyed after one more use.
Deng Tianyang had used such a precious Immortal Equipment to deal with the Silver Wolf, but the Silver Wolf's final attack was Gu Zheng, which made his heart ache even more.
"Elder Wuyou, is this the new Sect Leader of your Emei Sect?"
Deng Tianyang did not question Gu Zheng. Instead, he asked First Elder Wu You. It was obvious that he did not put the Emei Sect in his eyes.
"Yes, Gu Zheng is the new Sect Leader of Emei Sect!"
Although he was angry, Wuyou did not show it. After all, the Emei Sect had been declining for a long time. Over the years, such contempt had almost become a habit.
Deng Tianyang nodded slightly before his gaze fell on Gu Zheng.
"Logically speaking, since the final attack was yours, the Demon Core should also belong to you …"
This was the agreement they had made when they were hunting the Fox Demon. There were so many people, but there was only one Fox Demon. If they really killed the Fox Demon, who would the Demon Core belong to?
In order to avoid internal strife, they finally set this rule. Whoever killed the Demon Core would get it, and no one could object.
"Elder Deng, the Demon Wolf's final attack was not Gu Zheng!"
Deng Tianyang's words were interrupted, and the person who spoke was Liu Qingyun of the Qingcheng Sect.
"Liu Qingyun, what do you mean by this?" Elder Wuchou said angrily.
"What do I mean? Nothing, I'm just telling the truth! I don't know the purpose of Gu Zheng's final attack, but when the Demon Wolf flew in front of him, it was already killed by Elder Deng's Immortal Artifact! "
As soon as Liu Qingyun finished speaking, the surrounding people began to whisper. If what Liu Qingyun said was true, then there were only two possibilities for Gu Zheng's final attack. One, he did it subconsciously, and the other was to steal the fruits of victory.
Everyone had seen the power of Gu Zheng's Mountain Splitting Palm, so they had a better understanding of his strength. If the Demon Wolf was already dead when it got close to him, with his cultivation, it was impossible for him to not notice it. Therefore, the possibility that he did it subconsciously was very small.
If he wanted to steal the fruits of victory, then this kind of behavior was sinister, despicable, and annoying! Although on this trip to Sky Mountain, there was no lack of scheming and deception, and it was normal to be sinister and despicable, some things were fine if they were in the dark, but once they were out in the open, it would conflict with the so-called righteousness, justice, and so on.
"It's you again. You're quite far away from me, so how do you know it's not me?"
Gu Zheng looked at Liu Qingyun and gritted his teeth in hatred. This old man kept finding trouble with him. He was really annoying!
"I have to thank your Elder Wu You for this! If he hadn't injured me when we were chasing after the Fox King, I would have been standing in the inner circle like the other Elders, facing the Demon Wolf head-on. "
Liu Qingyun smiled proudly, then gritted his teeth and said, "It's precisely because I was injured that I didn't stay with the other Elders and was closer to you. In addition, I'm talented in this aspect, so I was able to sense things that others can't!"
"Sect Master Gu, is this the case?"
Deng Tianyang asked, looking straight at Gu Zheng.
"No!"
Gu Zheng looked straight at Deng Tianyang and answered without hesitation.
Who could explain the feeling clearly? As long as Gu Zheng insisted that it wasn't him, this matter would at most become a little unpleasant. No one would be able to brazenly accuse him of something without any concrete evidence!
"Do you think that you all have weapon spirits?"
Gu Zheng sneered in his heart. He also wanted to take this opportunity to see who was the most annoying in this group of people. He would remember their faces one by one.
"I believe what Elder Liu said!"
"I also believe what Elder Liu said!"
"Yes, Emei Sect's Sect Master is not kind to do this!"
Sure enough, there were people from several sects who took the lead to shout.
"You can believe it, but before the truth is revealed, please pay attention to your words. If you dare to slander our Emei Sect's Sect Master again, I, Wu Chou, will recognize you, but my fist won't bear to hurt you!"
Elder Wu Chou spoke, and Elder Wu You also took a step closer to him. Although Emei Sect was declining, there were still these two Elders. If they needed to sacrifice for the sect, they would not hesitate.
Those who stood out did not utter a word, and the scene also quieted down. Liu Qingyun's expression became more and more unsightly.
"What's wrong with you all? Don't tell me that you all don't believe what I said? "
In these years, Emei Sect was indeed used to being bullied. In a relatively big scene, they had long lost the right to speak. However, when the two Elders Wu You and Wu Chou, who had found their backbone, became angry like an awakened lion, they also had to reconsider whether it was worth it to go against Emei Sect on this matter.
The most precious monster core, even if Gu Zheng could not get it, the person who would get it would be Deng Tianyang. Therefore, in the face of Liu Qingyun's indignation, still no one spoke.
"Haha!" Gu Zheng sneered at Liu Qingyun, full of ridicule.
"Cough cough!"
Deng Tianyang coughed dryly, and then said to Gu Zheng, "This matter is indeed not easy to explain clearly …"
"Elder Deng!"
Gu Zheng interrupted Deng Tianyang's words. He understood that Deng Tianyang did not want to give up on the monster core, and with Liu Qingyun's interference, it was even more impossible for him to give up. Since that was the case, why not do him a favor at little cost and scheme for something more substantial? Anyway, Gu Zheng already knew from the Weapon Spirit that there was no monster core in the silver wolf's body.
The silver wolf was powerful only because its bloodline had awakened to a greater extent. However, it could only be considered a savage beast. Its intelligence had not reached a certain level, and it could not absorb the essence of the sun and moon to cultivate. Naturally, there was no monster core in its body.
"Since this matter cannot be explained clearly, in order to prevent some people from distorting the fact that I'm unscrupulous for the monster core, I don't want the monster core of this demon wolf!"
When Gu Zheng said that, everyone's eyes widened, including Liu Qingyun.
"Sect Master, please reconsider!" Elder Wu Chou hurriedly said.
Gu Zheng shook his head and smiled at Elder Wu Chou, pretending to be bitter but unable to say anything.
Then, Gu Zheng said to Deng Tianyang, "I can magnanimously refuse the monster core, but the wolf meat is my first choice. This should be what I deserve, right?"
Deng Tianyang only wanted the monster core. Although the other things on the silver wolf were precious, they were nothing compared to the monster core. Since Gu Zheng took the initiative to give up the monster core, Deng Tianyang did not want to cause any more trouble.
Nodding at Gu Zheng, Deng Tianyang said to the others, "Since Sect Master Emei gave up the monster core, the monster core belongs to me. Do you have any objections?"
"No objections."
"We have no objections!"
Deng Tianyang only wanted the monster core, and the other parts of the silver wolf belonged to Gu Zheng. This was the result of their discussion. Although the others were envious, there was nothing they could do. Even Liu Qingyun could not do anything. He could say that Deng Tianyang was the one who killed the silver wolf in the end and came to take away Gu Zheng's monster core. However, he could not say that he helped Gu Zheng get the monster core, so Gu Zheng had to give him the wolf body.
Deng Tianyang ran over happily and took out a sharp knife to cut open the silver wolf's body. He did not mind that it was dirty and directly reached inside. This time, his hard work was not in vain. At least he obtained a very good monster core.
But soon, the smile on his face became more and more stiff and ugly.
Nothing, still nothing. No matter how he touched, there was nothing. The silver wolf's internal organs were all dug out by him. In the end, there was still no monster core as he imagined. Deng Tianyang sat on the ground and stared blankly.
The others were watching. It was really surprising that there was no monster core in the silver wolf's body.
"How could this be?"
Deng Tianyang said bitterly. He spent so much effort to kill the silver wolf, used a precious fairy weapon, and owed Emei Sect a favor. In the end, there was nothing.
It was as if God was playing a joke on him. He could not accept it for a while.
"There is no monster core?"
"There is really no monster core. If there was, he would have taken it out long ago. It is impossible that he could not find it until now!"
"There is no monster core. This is a big loss!"
The surrounding people discussed animatedly. Gu Zheng comforted Deng Tianyang in a low voice. Deng Tianyang thanked him, shook his head and left. When he left, he was still very disappointed. This kind of expression could not be controlled, and there was no need to control it.
After Deng Tianyang left, Gu Zheng began to deal with the silver wolf's body. Many parts of the silver wolf's body were injured by the energy. The meat was also damaged, so there was not much good meat on the silver wolf's body. Gu Zheng cut off the best part that was not damaged and threw away the rest of the rotten meat.
He was the same as Lord Gokusen. He was obsessed with cleanliness when making things. He would rather not make bad things than ruin his mood.
As for the wolf skin, it might be a good thing for others, but it was useless for him.
"Leader Gu, don't you want the rest of the things?"
Someone suddenly asked. Although the remaining meat was rotten, it was still wolf meat. Moreover, it was the wolf meat of this powerful demon wolf. Although eating it would not do any good to the body, it would have a psychological effect.
Look, I have eaten a powerful demon wolf. This was their comfort.
There was also the wolf skin, wolf teeth, wolf bones, and other parts that could be kept as a souvenir to prove that he had killed a powerful demon wolf. Seeing that Gu Zheng did not want these things, someone immediately thought about it.
"No, you can divide it if you want, except for the Qingcheng Sect!"
Gu Zheng smiled slightly. When he spoke, he also glanced at Liu Qingyun. The other sects could get souvenirs, but the Qingcheng Sect did not. Liu Qingyun was so angry that he almost fainted. This time, he really went for wool and came home shorn.
Wuyou and Wuchou hurriedly went forward to pick a little first. Gu Zheng also pulled out a wolf tooth for himself. The rest of the wolf meat and fur were quickly divided up by the other sects. Even the internal organs were not left.
Among these sects, the most depressed was the Taishan Sect. Deng Tianyang said that he only wanted the monster core, but there was no monster core. They could not go back on what they had said. Seeing others divide it, they could only grit their teeth and watch those who got a share of the profits rejoice.
However, the rest of the Tianshan Gray Wolf and even the Giant Wolf were divided up by the Taishan Sect. It could be regarded as a consolation prize.
Everyone divided the wolf meat. On the top of the mountain next to the Black Dragon's mouth, the old man in white who had witnessed the whole process of the battle between the man and the wolf looked at the people below the mountain with hatred. He gritted his teeth.
In the tent of the Emei Sect.
"Sect Leader, did you know that the demon wolf did not have a monster core?"
Only their own people were left. Elder Wuchou finally could not help but ask curiously. The longer he got along with Gu Zheng, the more he felt that he was unfathomable. Just tonight, Gu Zheng had brought about a lot of incredible things, which was surprising.
Gu Zheng did not answer. He just smiled and tidied up the wolf meat he got.
"A pack of wolves attacked at night. This matter is not that simple."
Elder Wu You also spoke up.
"First Elder, what did you see?"
Gu Zheng stopped what he was doing.
"Before the incident, I heard the sound of the Chi Eight. The Chi Eight is a kind of ethnic musical instrument. We are at the foot of Tianshan Mountain. After the sound of the Chi Eight, the howling of the demon wolf also sounded. The attack of the wolf pack was launched after the howling. "
"After experiencing the strangulation of the demon wolf, I am even more certain that the howling before was made by the demon wolf. Such a strange demon wolf howled after the sound of the Chi Eight, and we are at the foot of Tianshan Mountain. Is everything just a coincidence? "
"With a guess in mind, I paid more attention to the direction of the Chi Eight and the howling during the battle. Finally, I found something different."
"There was a person standing on the top of the mountain next to the Black Dragon's mouth. This person witnessed the whole battle. He stood motionless on the top of the mountain, and his position was remote. If I did not pay attention to him in advance, I would not be sure if he was a person after he left. "
After Elder Wuyou finished speaking, everyone frowned. This was really terrifying. A person who could command a pack of wolves, and such a pack of wolves at that. What kind of existence was this person?
"On this trip to Tianshan Mountain, unexpected things have happened time and time again. Everyone has to be careful."
Gu Zheng instructed everyone. At the same time, he made up his mind to cook the Ice Spirit Delicacies first before thinking about anything else.
"Yes, Sect Master." Wuyou and the other two answered at the same time.
"You guys go guard outside the tent first. I will make something delicious for us to replenish our strength. It might be very fragrant later. Before I say anything, everyone is to stop them outside the tent."
The Intermediate Ice Spirit Delicacy had a very long shelf life. Even if it was made and eaten now, it could last until the thousand-year-old snow lotus withered.
Originally, Gu Zheng did not want to make it now. However, since there were enemies in the dark, it was better to make the Ice Spirit Delicacy as soon as possible. Once they entered Tianshan Mountain, who knew what would happen?
Wuyou and the other two left. Gu Zheng also took out some things from the Chaos Space.
The next Ice Spirit Delicacy that Gu Zheng was going to make was "Wolf Stew". This delicacy sounded simple, but since it was a delicacy of the food cultivation method, it was naturally not that simple.
After the preparations were done, Gu Zheng put the wolf meat and bones into the pot. At the same time, he threw in some second-grade wild mushrooms that he had obtained in Taihang Mountain.
Next, Gu Zheng used the Fire Control Art.
"Whoosh …"
The fire instantly grew stronger. However, it only surrounded the bottom of the pot and did not spread out at all.
Before the water boiled, the wolf meat and the ordinary ingredients that Gu Zheng added were already boiling in the water as if they had a life of their own. This was Gu Zheng using the Water Control Art.
In the past, when making delicacies, the Fire Control Art and the Water Control Art were used, but it was not necessary.
However, when making delicacies using the food cultivation method, the Fire Control Art was used to control the temperature of the fire, and the Water Control Art was used to control the inflow and outflow of water. This was something that had to be done continuously throughout the process! That was the only way to maximize the effects of an ingredient in a food cultivation method.
Under the effect of the Water Control Art, the pot of water was quickly boiled into soup.
In the milky white soup, the wolf meat and bones were no longer boiling. They were like small fish playing in the water, bobbing up and down on the surface of the soup.
The mellow aroma of meat wafted out of the tent and filled the air.
Fortunately, at this time, most of the people in the camp were eating wolf meat. The charred smell produced by the barbecue covered the not-so-strong aroma of the meat. Other than Wu Eryong, who was sniffing hard, no one else noticed this difference.
Wu Eryong really wanted to go to Gu Zheng's place to eat some food. Unfortunately, Deng Tianyang did not get the monster core he wanted. He was in a very bad mood. As a disciple on duty, he did not dare to leave the tent at this time. He could only suffer as he sniffed the aroma in the air, which gradually became stronger.
Slowly, Wu Eryong was not the only one sniffing. Many people smelled the aroma in the air that made people salivate. Some people could not help but be curious and approached the Emei Sect's tent.
Those who approached the Emei Sect's tent were naturally stopped by Elder Wuyou and the others. Back in the sect, Elder Wuyou and the others had already seen Gu Zheng's elemental boosting food. Therefore, when the aroma became stronger, their expectations also became stronger.
When the wolf meat in the pot was stewing, Gu Zheng put in some salt. The white mist condensed on the pot gradually turned into the shape of a small wolf and jumped happily.
When the aroma appeared, even the two elders outside the tent could not help but swallow their saliva. At their level of cultivation, although they couldn't abstain from eating, their appetite for good food was already very weak. This feeling of wanting to eat food had been so long that they couldn't even remember when it was the last time it happened.
"Sect Leader, is it done? We can't hold on anymore! "
Elder Wuyou finally could not help but shout pitifully toward the tent.
"It's done!" Gu Zheng's slightly tired voice sounded.
The Ice Spirit Delicacy this time was different from the elemental boosting food he made last time. Gu Zheng only made a portion for four people. Even so, it was still very tiring to use the fire and water controlling arts the whole time.
The bowl was filled with milky white meat soup. Several kinds of wild mushrooms floated on top of the soup. The meat of the wolf's thigh was exposed, giving off an indescribable feeling of crystal.
This time, without waiting for Gu Zheng's order, Elder Wuyou and the other two held their bowls and lowered their heads.
"Delicious!"
Elder Wu You was the first to speak. The amazement in his eyes towards the broth had yet to fade before it was replaced by pleasant surprise.
Gu Zheng said that he would make something delicious to nourish them. In addition, they had already seen the elemental boosting food before. In fact, Elder Wuyou was not the only one who was suspicious.
Even Elder Wuchou and Gu An had the same suspicions. The food that Gu Zheng prepared this time was most likely not the ordinary kind.
Sure enough, as soon as the meat soup entered their stomachs, a strange coolness spread through their limbs and bones. Although it was a coolness, it was like drinking water in a well during the hottest days of summer. It was so comfortable that it made them want to moan.
After just one mouthful of meat soup, Elder Wuyou and the others stopped what they were doing. They wanted to absorb as much of that strange coolness as possible.
"All of you, eat. This effect does not need to be deliberately absorbed like last time in the sect. It will complete the transformation of your body while you enjoy the delicacy."
Gu Zheng chewed on the wolf's meat happily, making unclear noises.
Ordinary wolf meat made with the Ice Spirit Cooking Technique was even better than immortal chicken. It could be said that this was the best meat Gu Zheng had ever tasted.
Elder Wuyou and the other two also began to eat. Although they did not ask, they could already guess what this rare delicacy would do to their bodies.
Gu Zheng had told them about the news he got from Wu Eryong. At that time, they were still worried. If Wu Eryong's words were true, how would Gu Zheng and Gu An deal with the power of extreme frost?
Gu Zheng also said at that time that they did not need to worry too much about the power of extreme frost. He was now ready for everything except the east wind!
Therefore, Elder Wuyou and the others also felt that this cooling and comfortable wolf meat was the east wind that Gu Zheng was talking about.
After eating a bowl of stewed wolf meat, Gu Zheng rubbed his stomach in satisfaction. The air that was originally a little chilly now didn't feel cold at all.
Even with the immortal artifact Emei Ring, Gu Zheng was still worried about the power of extreme frost when the Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed matured. That was a terrifying power that could turn people below the fifth level into ice dust. Even people above the fifth level would be greatly affected.
With such power, the Emei Ring's protection was useless. The Emei Ring defended against physical attacks, not cold attacks. Although it could resist the cold to a certain extent, its resistance was very limited.
The next day, the cultivators outside the Black Dragon's Mouth were ready to go. It was time to go to the depths of Tianshan.
After the wolf pack's attack last night, the original three hundred people were reduced to two hundred or so. Many of the people in charge of the sects did not look good.
The cultivators were divided into many sects, so there was no one to lecture them. When the Taishan Sect started their journey, the people from the other sects also followed behind.
As time passed, the snow on the road from the Black Dragon's Mouth to Tianshan became more and more difficult to walk on. The temperature also dropped.
Unknowingly, fourteen days had passed.
During this period of time, they did not encounter any strange things. Other than encountering an avalanche, there was no danger.
Gu Zheng still did not harvest any new ingredients. Almost all of his time was spent on the road. Even when he rested, he did not stray far from the camp.
The hidden enemy did not show up during this time. Gu Zheng did not think that he would just let it go. Since the enemy was hiding in the dark, Gu Zheng naturally wouldn't take the risk to search far away from the camp for some unimportant ingredients.
Gu Zheng had told all the people in charge of the sects about this hidden enemy before they set off. Although many of these sects were quite bad, for now, they could be considered as a temporary alliance. Some things had to be said.
At first, when they heard that there was a potential enemy, all the sects were very cautious. However, as time went by, the potential enemy never appeared. No one knew where the rumors came from. Those who were not on good terms with Emei Sect began to suspect that Gu Zheng was trying to use this as a pretext to attract attention. The hidden enemy was simply fabricated? This was really boring!
On the fifteenth night, something unusual finally happened in the camp.
A disciple of the Taishan Sect told everyone that Elder Deng Tianyang and a few other disciples had gone after the hidden enemy.
All the sects attached great importance to this matter. After all, Deng Tianyang was the person in charge of the Taishan Sect. Therefore, everyone hurried to track him.
However, until dawn, no one found the hidden enemy, nor did they find Deng Tianyang. In fact, from the beginning of the tracking, there was no trace of Deng Tianyang. The so-called tracking was just a aimless search.
People from all the sects also suspected that Deng Tianyang had left them behind. After all, there were many suspicious points in the whole matter. However, the Taishan Sect insisted that Deng Tianyang had gone to track the enemy! In this regard, no one dared to raise any more doubts.
However, Deng Tianyang was not the only one in the Taishan Sect who knew the location of the thousand-year Tianshan Snow Lotus. Therefore, his disappearance was not to the extent that they could not do without him.
The Taishan Sect wanted to wait for Deng Tianyang in the same place, but the other sects certainly did not agree. After several negotiations, the Taishan Sect was pressured and decided to wait for Deng Tianyang in the same place for a day before continuing on their journey.
On the third day, Deng Tianyang and the rest did not return. Under the leadership of the Taishan Sect, everyone continued on their journey.
When it was close to dusk, the old man who controlled the wolf pack with the Eight Shakti Tones suddenly appeared. He stood far away from the crowd and kept telling them things.
The enemy did not appear to ambush them. He only came to mock them for their stupidity and told them some things.
Deng Tianyang had indeed left with his people first.
In fact, the Taishan Sect had told them a lie about the maturity time of the Tianshan Snow Lotus. The real maturity time was yesterday. The snow lotus had already matured and the snow lotus seed had already been taken away by him. No one had gotten it.
After telling everyone the news, the old man advised them not to be stupid and to leave Tianshan as soon as possible. This was not a place they should be. If they continued, they would die.
The chattering old man finally angered everyone. Under the pursuit of everyone, he disappeared into the snow.
Therefore, everyone vented their anger on the Taishan Sect.
Faced with everyone's criticism, the Taishan Sect denied everything the old man had said. They even said that since the other party was the enemy, what he said could not be trusted. They could not wait for the crowd to fight among themselves!
The old man's words were reasonable, and the Taishan Sect's explanation was reasonable. Helpless, after the crowd argued with the Taishan Sect, the matter was left unsettled.
Everyone would rather believe that the old man was lying and that the snow lotus seed had not matured. However, could the Taishan Sect still lead them to find the thousand-year-old snow lotus? Many people no longer had any hope for this, but the current situation made it difficult for them to get off the tiger. Even if they wanted to leave, there was still that sneaky old man in the dark, so they didn't dare to leave alone.
"Sect Leader, what should we do?" In the Emei Sect's tent, Elder Wu You looked worried.
"Don't worry so much. The situation has not reached a point where it can't be solved!" Gu Zheng smiled. It seemed that it was time to do something.
"Sect Leader, do you have any good ideas?" Gu An looked curious.
"There's a way we can try, but we'll have to wait until night," Gu Zheng said.
During the several negotiations between the crowd and the Taishan Sect, Gu Zheng received a piece of information. This information might not be particularly useful to others, but it was very valuable to him.
Wu Eryong of the Taishan Sect was also involved in the incident of forcing the rogue cultivators to jump into the river. This meant that he also knew where the Tianshan snow lotus was.
Gu Zheng held up the pot and boiled the immortal rice porridge. The familiar fragrance drifted into Wu Eryong's nostrils with the wind.
Wu Eryong was meditating in the tent. The familiar fragrance made him lose his wits. In the end, he pretended to go out to relieve himself. Under the cover of the night, he sneaked into the Emei Sect's tent.
"Good, good, good. Senior, you really keep your word."
Wu Eryong smiled and took the immortal rice porridge from Gu Zheng. He slowly drank it with an intoxicated expression.
"Senior, do you have more? Why is the bowl smaller than the last one? "Wu Eryong licked his lips. His face was full of longing.
"There's not much rice left, so I changed to a smaller bowl." Gu Zheng sighed.
"Sigh!"
Wu Eryong also sighed. A big bowl was not enough for him to drink. This small bowl, which was half the size of a big bowl, was simply to moisten his throat.
"However, if you provide some more useful information, I'll boil all the remaining rice into porridge for you. That's enough for two big bowls!"
Gu Zheng smiled. Under the light of the fire, the corners of his mouth looked a little sinister.
Indeed, if Wu Eryong hadn't eaten the immortal rice porridge, he might not have thought so. However, after drinking a small bowl, his gluttony had been completely hooked.
"Senior, you can't do this!"
Wu Eryong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. However, Gu Zheng was calm. He scooped out the remaining bowl of immortal rice porridge from the pot and drank it happily. At the same time, he deliberately made a very fragrant slurping sound.
Wu Eryong's Adam's apple was moving. His eyes were almost stuck in Gu Zheng's bowl. For a foodie, Gu Zheng's actions were simply torturous.
"Senior, I know what you want to ask. In fact, when I saw the small bowl, I knew that this porridge was delicious and difficult to digest. However, I can't make an exchange with you this time."
Wu Eryong gritted his teeth, stood up, and bowed to Gu Zheng before leaving.
"Second, actually, I'm not the best at cooking porridge! The noodles I make, even immortals will drool when they smell it. I wonder if you want to try it? "
Gu Zheng's sincere voice made Wu Eryong stop in his tracks.
"Noodles?"
Wu Eryong turned around and his eyes widened. As a northerner, noodles were a staple food that he couldn't live without. Wu Eryong didn't dare to imagine the taste of noodles that could make immortals drool.
"Yes, if you tell me what I want to know, I'll make you a bowl of noodles that you'll never forget for the rest of your life!"
The temporary chopping board was next to the charcoal fire. Gu Zheng lifted the white cloth covering the chopping board, and the dough that was almost kneaded appeared immediately.
In the pot on the other side of the charcoal fire, the water was already boiling, and the aroma of cooking immortal chicken slowly wafted out. In order to make Wu Eryong submit, Gu Zheng had already done these preparations early on.
The moment he saw the dough, Wu Eryong's eyes were already fixed. Under the light of the fire, the dough looked incomparably smooth, and even slightly shone brightly. It refreshed his understanding of dough.
The fire and water control arts were used at the same time, and the immortal chicken was quickly cooked. The chicken was taken out of the pot by Gu Zheng, and he began to quickly extract the shredded chicken.
This time, it was different from the Gourmet Competition. Whether it was the venue or other things, it wasn't as particular as when he made the shredded chicken noodles. But even so, Gu Zheng was still confident that this bowl of shredded chicken noodles would be able to move Wu Eryong.
The slender white shredded chicken was extracted by Gu Zheng one after another and placed in a bowl at the side, exuding a faint fragrance.
Wu Eryong was stunned. He had never thought that a person could extract the shredded chicken so smoothly. The speed of his hand was like a phantom, and none of the shredded chicken was broken! He also didn't expect that the chicken that was boiled in plain water would have such an indescribable fragrance. This fragrance was different from the fragrance of meat with added spices. It was a mellow temptation, like the attraction of raw wine to a drunkard, making him infatuated and intoxicated.
