"Seems like you came to the Extreme Fragrance Small House to look for trouble?" Chen Yue's face stiffened.
At first, Chen Yue thought that Bai Xinghui was looking for trouble. However, after listening to Bai Xinghui's words, he felt that this person might have really eaten the delicious Six Paths of Reincarnation. That was why he scoffed at Gu Zheng's Six Paths of Reincarnation.
But now, Chen Yue completely understood that Bai Xinghui came to the Extreme Fragrance Small House to look for trouble! After all, the Blood Energy Imprint was an evil technique, and it would cause damage to the body. If he didn't have an ulterior motive, there was no need to use the Blood Energy Imprint during a meal.
"Why would I come here to look for trouble for no reason? I'm just picky when it comes to food. Moreover, this is the Immortal Kitchen. We need to spend a lot of resources to eat a meal here. It's normal for me to be picky! "
Bai Xinghui smiled. There was no trace of grievance in his words. He only had the attitude of a winner.
"Fellow daoist, if Sect Master Gu used the same ingredients as you and made the Six Paths of Reincarnation, do you think his cooking skills would be as bad as what you said?" Chen Yue asked seriously.
Bai Xinghui furrowed his brows and said warily, "What do you mean?"
"Nothing much. What happened was that you came to the Extremely Fragrant Villa and ordered a custom-made dish that Sect Master Gu had never seen before. Then, you didn't tell Sect Master Gu that the dish required special ingredients."
"Sect Master Gu didn't know what you were thinking, so he made the Six Paths of Reincarnation that he thought was the best. However, because of this, you questioned Sect Master Gu's culinary skills and said something disrespectful to him! When Sect Master Gu asked you to apologize, you refused and said that you could cook the same dish better than Sect Master Gu. So, you two looked for me, the notary, to compete.
"However, when I was about to make a Heart Demon Oath, you pestered me endlessly and said that you wanted to use your so-called method to make the Six Paths of Reincarnation. That's what happened, right?"
When some people were angry, their thoughts would become meticulous, and Chen Yue was such a person. When he was annoyed by Bai Xinghui's motive, he seemed to have simply repeated the incident, but in fact, he was trying to dampen Bai Xinghui's spirit and set a trap for him.
"What do you mean I pestered you endlessly? I'm speaking with facts! "Bai Xinghui said.
"Alright, since you speak with facts, then let me ask you, if Sect Leader Gu uses the same supplementary materials as you and makes another 'Six Paths of Reincarnation', will the agreement you made before still count?" Chen Yue asked.
Gu Zheng shook his head and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen, I appreciate your kindness, but I don't have the ingredients to make the Six Paths of Reincarnation."
"He doesn't even have the ingredients for the Six Paths of Reincarnation? What kind of agreement was there to talk about? You guys are the ones pestering endlessly, aren't you? Alright, I won't talk to you anymore. I don't have time to waste here! I won't come to the House of Extreme Fragrance again. Send me away from Foggy Wind Island now! "
Bai Xinghui looked impatient on the surface, but in his heart, he was a little anxious. He felt that things might not be that simple. This Chen Yue was a variable.
Sure enough, things were developing in the direction Bai Xinghui least wanted to see. Chen Yue stood in front of him.
"Sect Master Gu doesn't have the ingredients, but I happen to have them here."
Chen Yue paused and then looked at Gu Zheng. "Sect Master Gu, are you willing to continue with the previous agreement? I'm a stubborn person. I just want the truth. As long as you're willing to continue with the previous agreement, the two resources are just the price I have to pay for it! As for the other supplementary materials you don't have, this fellow daoist who questioned you happens to have them all! "
As soon as Chen Yue's voice fell, he took out two things from his storage bracelet. They were a piece of Six Paths Wood full of leaves and five Reincarnation Fruits.
Seeing that Chen Yue really had the Six Paths Wood and the Reincarnation Fruits, Bai Xinghui's heart trembled. He said angrily, "What do you mean I have them all? Should I give them to him just because I have them? "
"Stop pestering endlessly. Either you apologize to Sect Master Gu and get out of here, or you do as we agreed! Otherwise, not to mention that Sect Master Gu won't let you go, I, Chen Yue, will fight you to the death! "
Chen Yue was furious. The aura of a Void Return Final Stage cultivator instantly erupted.
"Good, good, good!"
Bai Xinghui said with a cold expression. Then, he said very seriously, "Alright, we'll do as we agreed! However, I have one more request! "
"Speak!" Gu Zheng said coldly.
"I won't cook the Six Paths of Reincarnation with you. What if you peek at how I cook it? That's my only request! "Bai Xinghui said.
"Alright, then we'll do it separately!"
Gu Zheng's voice paused. Then, he said, "Although fellow daoist Chen said that the resources he provided were the price he had to pay for the truth, this matter started because of you and me. We can't let a third person bear the cost of such precious resources. Therefore, our previous agreement has to be changed! If your Six Paths of Reincarnation later isn't as good as mine, then according to our previous agreement, you have to compensate fellow daoist Chen with something of the same value as the resources he provided. If my Six Paths of Reincarnation later isn't as good as yours, then according to our previous agreement, I have to compensate fellow daoist Chen with something of the same value as the resources he provided. "
"Aren't you being nosy? He has already said that he doesn't want it. Why are you still doing this? "Bai Xinghui frowned.
"Nosy or not, are you afraid that it won't be as good as yours? Is that why you don't dare to add anything to the agreement? "Gu Zheng said.
"Nonsense!" Bai Xinghui gritted his teeth. "Add something to it then. Do you think I'm scared of you?"
"Fine!" Gu Zheng smiled. "We are both Immortal Cultivators. Now that we've made an agreement, let's do it according to our agreement. If you lose, don't dawdle anymore, or I won't be polite to you! On the other hand, if I lose, I won't dawdle either. "
"Alright."
Bai Xinghui agreed and looked at Chen Yue. "You can make an Oath of Inner Demons now!"
"I, Chen Yue, swear a Heart Demon Oath today that I will participate in the cooking competition between Gu Zheng and this fellow Daoist. When the time comes, I will be impartial, without any personal feelings, and without going against my heart! If I violate this oath, I will die miserably in the Realm of Inner Demons in the future! "
Since Chen Yue had already made an Oath of Inner Demons, Bai Xinghui also gave some of the supplementary ingredients to Gu Zheng.
"I need to borrow your kitchen, or you can give me a set of cooking utensils," Bai Xinghui said.
"Come, let's go to my kitchen. When the time comes, you can cook in the outer room, and I'll cook in the inner room," Gu Zheng said.
For Bai Xinghui, if he could avoid competing with Gu Zheng, he would try his best not to compete with Gu Zheng. Therefore, at that time, he wanted to stop while he was ahead. Unfortunately, he was a little too cocky, and in the end, he provoked Chen Yue, this variable.
Bai Xinghui didn't want to compete with Gu Zheng because he didn't have absolute confidence that he could defeat Gu Zheng. After all, Gu Zheng was an Immortal Chef, and the Six Paths of Reincarnation he made before didn't need the Heavenly Ash Powder and Immortal Mushroom Powder. This was already very good. However, what was done couldn't be undone. Bai Xinghui could only brace himself.
In the outer room of the kitchen of the Extremely Fragrant Villa, Lian Yuxin and Sister Yang had already helped Bai Xinghui set up the cooking utensils.
After Bai Xinghui put the ingredients on the chopping board, his head suddenly buzzed.
The strange sound in his head was not because Bai Xinghui was worried, but because Nan Yichen was contacting him through the 'blood energy imprint'.
Nan Yichen could see and hear the situation here through the 'blood energy imprint', and he could also transmit his voice to Bai Xinghui through the 'blood energy imprint'. However, this transmission required Bai Xinghui's consent.
The strange sound was that Nan Yichen wanted to talk to Bai Xinghui, and this strange sound had already appeared when Bai Xinghui and Gu Zheng made an appointment.
However, the cultivation of Gu Zheng and Chen Yue was not low. If he accepted Nan Yichen's call at that time, even if he didn't say anything, Gu Zheng and Chen Yue would have noticed that he was playing tricks. What's more, Bai Xinghui also knew that at that time, Nan Yichen could only persuade him not to do so, so he didn't answer.
"Alas!"
Now what was done could not be undone. Bai Xinghui sighed secretly and accepted the call with Nan Yichen.
"Alas! Senior, why are you doing this for me? "Nan Yichen sighed.
"It's not all for you. You know my temper. I like to touch a tiger's butt!" Bai Xinghui laughed.
Nan Yichen was silent for a moment, and then said, "What should we do now? Senior, what are your odds of winning? "
"60%!" Bai Xinghui said.
"Ah? Really 60%? "Nan Yichen exclaimed.
"Really 60%! After all, the old immortal chef also said that I have learned all his skills in the dish 'Six Paths of Reincarnation'. In addition, the old immortal chef also said that his method of cooking 'Six Paths of Reincarnation' was already the best method, so I didn't let Gu Zheng see how I cooked it. If Gu Zheng's' Six Paths of Reincarnation 'is different from mine, then he is very likely to lose. "
Although he said so, Bai Xinghui was not very confident. After all, Gu Zheng knew that Heavenly Ash Powder was very important and could change the cooking method of 'Six Paths of Reincarnation'.
However, Heavenly Ash Powder and Immortal Mushroom Powder, both of which could change the cooking method of 'Six Paths of Reincarnation', were added together. Could Gu Zheng really know the best cooking method of 'Six Paths of Reincarnation'? Bai Xinghui hoped that Gu Zheng could not. Otherwise, he would lose face this time.
Bai Xinghui was preparing to cook 'Six Paths of Reincarnation' in the outer room, and Gu Zheng was also preparing in the inner room.
If there was only Immortal Mushroom Powder, in Gu Zheng's opinion, the best cooking method of 'Six Paths of Reincarnation' was stewing.
If there was only Heavenly Ash Powder, in Gu Zheng's opinion, the best cooking method of 'Six Paths of Reincarnation' was salad.
But if there were both Immortal Mushroom Powder and Heavenly Ash Powder, as well as Shanghai Pepper Sauce, Heavenly Ginger Powder, and Cinnabar Fruit Jam, Gu Zheng's opinion, the best cooking method was stir-frying!
However, this stir-frying was different from the previous stir-frying. Because of the Heavenly Ash Powder, this stir-frying would be more unique.
When Gu Zheng made 'Six Paths of Reincarnation' for the first time, he first boiled the Six Paths of Reincarnation with water and then iced it. The reason he did this was not only to remove the bitterness in the Six Paths of Reincarnation, but also to remove some of the colloid in the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
But this time, Gu Zheng would only remove the bitterness from the Six Paths of Reincarnation. He wouldn't remove the gelatinous substance from the leaves.
"Gu Zheng, the guy next door is really annoying!"
The weapon spirit, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke at this time.
"If that's the case, I thought you would have said it long ago!"
Gu Zheng smiled slightly. He was also wondering why the weapon spirit was so patient today. If it was in the past, whether it was others who pestered or questioned Gu Zheng's cooking skills, Gu Zheng would not be angry, but she would be angry.
"How dare he question your cooking skills? I don't believe that his cooking skills are better than yours!" The weapon spirit said angrily.
"What's wrong with you today? You asked too late, and you got angry too late! "
Gu Zheng was a little confused, but the Artifact Spirit in his internal vision didn't seem to have any abnormalities.
"I'm fine."
The weapon spirit shook her head, and then said hatefully, "You should teach such a person a lesson to let him know how powerful you are! With your current understanding of the Way of Eating, you can even let him have his way! "
Gu Zheng's heart trembled. "Let him have his way? Not using immortal techniques? "
"Yes!" The weapon spirit answered without hesitation.
Gu Zheng's heart moved again. He felt that the weapon spirit's abnormality was a little unusual.
In the kitchen of the Shushan Sect and the Kunlun Sect, Gu Zheng had a cooking competition with the chefs of the two sects. At that time, the weapon spirit had induced Gu Zheng not to use immortal techniques. These two things had left a deep impression on Gu Zheng, and he had always felt that this should be a hidden mission!
The weapon spirit's abnormality today reminded Gu Zheng of the hidden mission he suspected.
Gu Zheng had asked the weapon spirit about the so-called hidden mission, but the weapon spirit flatly denied it. Gu Zheng also believed that if Gokusen really made such a mission, then no matter how many times he asked, it would be in vain. Otherwise, it would not be a hidden mission.
The weapon spirit's abnormality today made Gu Zheng very happy. He felt that as long as he looked down on his opponent and won without using immortal techniques, then he might be able to verify his guess whether this was a hidden mission or not! After all, it was impossible for a hidden mission to have no limit. Even if he still could not verify it this time, at least he was closer to verifying it.
With a decision in his heart, Gu Zheng smiled. "Since he came to find trouble, then I'll look down on him. This time, I won't use immortal techniques to cook the Six Paths of Reincarnation."
"Good!"
The weapon spirit applauded and said proudly, "Look down on him properly and let him know the gap between him and Gokusen's successor!"
"Of course!"
Gu Zheng paused and then said, "However, if I don't use immortal techniques, the cooking process will take a lot of time! Although there is no time limit to the competition with him, it's not good to take too long. I don't want to hear any more excuses from him. "
"He is an immortal cultivator, unlike the cultivators you've met before, so you can use immortal power. However, as long as you don't use immortal techniques, you will still be looking down on him. Do you understand what I mean?" the weapon spirit asked.
"Understood." Gu Zheng smiled.
What the weapon spirit meant was that Gu Zheng could use immortal power to shorten the processing and cooking time of ingredients, but he could not use immortal techniques like the Five Elements Immortal Arts, which could make unconventional changes to the food.
"Then hurry up and do it. I hope you win beautifully!" the weapon spirit said.
"Don't worry, I will win beautifully!"
Gu Zheng smiled confidently, and his confidence was not without reason.
Using immortal techniques to cook was good, and if Gu Zheng used the Six Paths of Reincarnation, the overall effect of its color, fragrance, and taste would be amazing.
However, as the saying went, "Once you learn one, you will learn all." There were cooking methods that used immortal techniques, and there were also cooking methods that did not use immortal techniques.
Gu Zheng cultivated Gokusen's Secret Art, which was a divine ability that other Immortal Chefs did not possess. It was also because of Gokusen's Secret Art that all ingredients were 'digitized' in his eyes! This was a special ability that Gu Zheng obtained after he became an immortal cultivator and consumed Gokusen's Enlightened Food Cultivation. It was also a divine ability that other Immortal Chefs did not possess.
Even if other Immortal Chefs had a deep understanding of food and had come into contact with the Dao of Food and Drink, they only had a single understanding of food and drink! However, when they were faced with ingredients, they only had a feeling and understanding. They felt that this ingredient should be matched well with what ingredients, and how to remove the bad ingredients.
However, feeling and seeing were two completely different matters. If one felt that there was something bad in the ingredient, one could think of a way to get rid of it. However, because one could not see it, this method of getting rid of it was only a rough idea. Once one could see it, one could get rid of it more thoroughly than feeling it.
Gu Zheng understood that the supplementary ingredients that Bai Xinghui took out were definitely perfect in his eyes. However, this perfection was only in Bai Xinghui's eyes. It was only in his realm that he could see it.
In Gu Zheng's eyes, there was no problem with the Heavenly Ginger Powder. However, the Sea Pepper Sauce, Vermilion Fruit Jam, Heavenly Ash Powder, and Immortal Mushroom Powder were not perfect enough. There were still some bad impurities in them. If these impurities were removed, their fusion would become even more perfect! And this perfection was the perfection that Gu Zheng saw.
Using imperfect supplementary ingredients to challenge Gu Zheng's cooking skills, if Gu Zheng was not confident, then it would be strange.
To Gu Zheng, the Six Paths of Reincarnation made with immortal techniques were one thing, and the Six Paths of Reincarnation made without immortal techniques were another. However, no matter which one it was, it was different from the first time he made it.
Gu Zheng mashed the Six Paths of Konoha, then put it into a bowl with water. Then, he used the chopsticks to slowly stir it.
The bitter impurities in the Six Paths of Konoha appeared in the form of light dots in Gu Zheng's eyes. Gu Zheng used his immortal energy to control them, then absorbed them into the chopsticks and disposed of them.
After a few times, the bitter impurities in the Six Paths of Konoha were finally removed by Gu Zheng.
If he could use immortal techniques, then the step of removing the bitter impurities would be very simple. Gu Zheng only needed to put the Six Paths of Konoha in cold water and use the Water Controlling Art. In just a few seconds, he could remove all the bitter impurities in the Six Paths of Konoha without destroying its shape.
