Chapter 152 Peak Master Qi Arrives
Not yet.
It was past noon, but the number of people in the courtyard had not decreased; in fact, it had increased.
"Yun Ci, I'd like a teriyaki chicken leg rice bowl."
"Ok."
"Yun Ci, I want one too. I want extra rice and extra broth."
"Okay, please give Chu Ziming a larger portion of rice."
"Yun Ci, can I have an extra serving of spirit chicken leg? It's so delicious."
"Okay, here you go. Do you need it cut?"
"Hehe, no need, no need, eating big chunks is more satisfying!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Ci smiled at him.
He also loves to eat meat in big bites!
Chu Ziming likes it too, and Xiaobai likes it too...
When the disciple saw Yun Ci's smile, he stopped in his tracks, scratching his head and grinning foolishly.
The person behind him patted him on the shoulder with a puzzled look, "Fellow Daoist, why aren't you leaving after you've bought your things?"
No, what are you grinning about?
"..."
"Yun Ci, I'll have a teriyaki chicken leg rice bowl too..."
"Yun Ci..."
Yun Ci handed a portion of chicken to the disciple in front of her. Just as she was about to take some more chicken legs from her storage ring, she discovered that all the chicken legs were gone.
The 30 spirit chickens that Peak Master Li sent last time, plus the ones sent by the people from Beast Taming Peak a few days ago, totaling 60 legs, have all been sold out today.
Yun Ci blinked and looked at the crowd in line. "We've run out of spirit chicken legs."
As he spoke, he checked it again.
The little boy lowered his fluffy head and mumbled, "We've really used them all up. There aren't any left."
The courtyard was quiet for a second, then erupted in a loud 'whoosh'.
"Aaaaaah! It's all gone? It's gone so quickly? I didn't even get to eat any!!!"
"My fellow disciple just advanced to the next level after eating teriyaki chicken leg rice. I feel like I'm only one bite of teriyaki chicken leg rice away from advancing too!"
"Ugh, this is really uncomfortable."
"I've never had a spirit chicken leg before, and I thought I'd get to try it, but it's sold out..."
"Waaaaah, I want to cry..."
I want to cry too...
The crowd waiting in line for teriyaki chicken leg rice burst into tears when they heard Yun Ci say that the chicken legs were sold out.
Yun Ci looked at the saddened crowd and thought for a moment.
He still has a few spirit pigs in his storage ring. They can't be used to make teriyaki chicken leg rice, but they can be used to make braised pork rice.
Braised pork rice is also delicious.
Just as Yun Ci was about to speak, someone suddenly appeared in the courtyard.
Upon seeing the newcomer, the disciples immediately bowed respectfully.
"Greetings, Peak Master Qi."
"Greetings, Peak Master Qi."
"Greetings, Peak Master Qi."
"Greetings, Peak Master Qi."
"Greetings, Peak Master Qi..."
"It's actually the peak master of your Spirit Plant Peak! It seems your peak master also enjoys the food Yun Ci makes..."
A disciple from Talisman Peak bowed respectfully and turned to whisper to the person next to him dressed in the robes of Spirit Plant Peak.
The disciples from Lingzhi Peak standing nearby didn't speak; they simply kept their heads down.
"..."
Qi Fengzhu was dressed in a dark brown robe, his head held high, as if he didn't care about anyone.
He glanced at the disciple who was bowing, and gave a long "hmm," then said, "Get up."
"Yes."
"Yes."
"Yes......"
As Peak Master Qi walked forward, the disciples quickly stepped aside to make way for him.
The disciples' expressions were no longer as relaxed as before.
The disciples of Lingzhi Peak, in particular, all had their heads down, their expressions extremely serious.
Yun Ci noticed it too, her eyes filled with confusion.
Everyone reacted very differently to the peak masters of the Spirit Plant Peak and the Beast Taming Peak.
Wasn't the Beast Taming Peak Master supposed to have a more fiery temper? Why does it seem like everyone's more afraid of the Spirit Plant Peak Master?
Qi Fengzhu's gaze fell on Yun Ci behind the long table, and his aloof expression changed.
Yun Ci bowed like everyone else, saying, "Greetings, Peak Master Qi."
Peak Master Qi walked to the long table, looked at Yun Ci, and suddenly smiled, though his eyes remained shrewd. "No need for formalities, you must be Yun Ci?"
Yun Ci looked at Peak Master Qi in front of him, nodded, and said yes.
Oh my god, Peak Master Qi, please stop laughing. Your laughter is even scarier than your silence.
Yun Ci thought to herself.
But what is the peak master of Lingzhi Peak doing here? Is he also here to buy food?
"Peak Master Qi, the teriyaki chicken leg rice is sold out. If you would like some, we will have braised pork rice later."
Yun Ci looked up and spoke, her eyes clear.
As Qi Fengzhu looked at the young boy in front of him, seeing his clear, water-like eyes, he felt a surge of affection for him.
His gaze towards Yun Ci became even more determined to succeed.
He wanted to take this disciple as his personal disciple.
He said, "No need for now. Yun Ci, you have a top-grade wood spirit root, so you need to come back to Spirit Plant Peak with me now."
As he spoke, the peak master of Lingzhi Peak glanced at everything in the courtyard: the pot, the long table, the people in the courtyard...
I thought to myself, I shouldn't be wasting my time doing this.
Hear the words.
Everyone in the courtyard looked on incredulously.
"What did Peak Master Qi just say? Top-grade wood spirit root?"
"No way, no way, I must have misheard."
"I also heard about top-grade wood spirit root. Isn't Yun Ci a high-grade wood spirit root? The only top-grade wood spirit root in the whole world is Mu Jin."
"!!!"
Everyone looked on in disbelief.
When Chu Ziming heard Peak Master Qi say that Yun Ci should go with him, he showed a wary look and stepped forward to take Yun Ci's hand.
Yun Ci also held Chu Zi Mo's hand tightly.
Little Ginseng and Little White hugged Yun Ci's legs.
Yun stepped back, looked at Peak Master Qi, and corrected him.
He shook his head. "Peak Master Qi, I am not a top-grade wood spirit root, I am a high-grade wood spirit root."
Peak Master Qi nodded, "The testing stone did indeed test a superior-grade wood spirit root, but now you need to return to Spirit Plant Peak with me so that the testing stone can test it again."
Upon hearing this, the crowd began to whisper among themselves again.
Ji Yu stopped his sword at the doorway, walked in, and paused upon seeing the scene before him.
Why would the peak master of Lingzhi Peak be here?
Retest?
Yun Ci's face was full of doubt. He had a superior wood spirit root, hadn't it already been tested?
Yun Ci didn't want to go.
This Qi Peak Master doesn't seem to have a good temper, nor a bad temper; rather, he seems unpredictable and moody.
He finally understood why everyone was more afraid of the Peak Master of the Spirit Plant Peak.
but...
Yun Ci looked up at the peak master of Lingzhi Peak.
Qi Fengzhu's posture made it seem like he had no choice but to go.
No matter how many times he is tested, he will always have a superior wood spirit root, and he will be able to come back after the tests are completed.
Why don't we go?
After all, Qi Fengzhu was the master of one of the peaks of the Xuanyuan Sect, and he would not harm such a lowly disciple as him.
Yun Ci nodded, "Okay."
“Yun Ci!” Chu Zimo stepped forward. “I’ll go with you.”
"Daddy, baby wants to go too."
The little ginseng stretched out its two tiny white hands, raised them towards Yun Ci, and bounced around below.
"Chirp." Little White jumped onto Yun Ci.
Peak Master Qi frowned, but then he noticed that Chu Ziming was wearing the robes of a personal disciple.
He has always been more tolerant of his talented disciples.
He said expressionlessly, "You can't go."
Chu Ziming looked unconvinced and was about to speak.
Yun Ci grabbed him, her little mouth opening and closing.
Chu Ziming suddenly stopped moving.
Qi Fengzhu grabbed Yun Ci and then disappeared on the spot.
Chu Ziming clenched his fist.
Yun Ci told him that if he didn't return within an hour, he should go find Elder Huaiyuan.
Is the peak master of Spirit Plant Peak out of his mind?
Why would you need to take a test?
Yun Ci wasn't there, so the people waiting to buy food had to leave.
However, what just happened has left everyone feeling unsettled.
Some were curious, some were worried about Yun Ci, and some were considering whether to wait for Yun Ci to return and continue buying food...
After a moment of contemplation, Ji Yu also flew away on his sword.
"Little Daddy..."
The little ginseng looked at the spot where Yun Ci had disappeared, covered its 'eyes' with its two small white hands, and burst into tears.
"Baby wants a little daddy"
