Ye Feng reached into his robes and tossed out more than ten jade slips.

With his hands forming a hand seal, the jade slip began to emit a faint light.

Immediately afterwards, a pale green light appeared on the jade slip.

With a flash of green light, all the jade slip spaces were opened.

Rows of tables and chairs flew out of the jade slip space and landed steadily on the ground.

Then plates of dumplings and seafood in gravy were placed on the table.

How could the disciples not know what was going on?

One by one, they transformed into werewolves, howling as they charged forward.

"Delicious! I love dumplings so much!"

"Smack smack".

"Mmm...delicious! This dish is incredibly flavorful, except for being a little prickly in the mouth!"

Is it possible that the shellfish is inedible?

"Long live Junior Uncle! I'm about to eat my tongue!"

"Are you cursing your junior uncle? There are plenty of people in the cultivation world who are over ten thousand years old."

"Still have time to talk nonsense? Can't you even shut up with food?"

"Holy crap! These dumplings actually boost comprehension!!! I feel like the moves I learned this morning are suddenly incredibly clear."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's show off!"

"Let's shine together!"

...

...

Shenqing Zhenjun and the others sat at a table, eating the same food.

Shenqing Zhenjun was extremely pleased to see this bustling scene.

"Thanks to Junior Brother, our Shushan Sword Sect has achieved such a state. Given time, it will surely be promoted to a first-class sect."

Ye Feng laughed and said, "Isn't this what I should do? I am a member of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect."

Shenqing Zhenjun shook his head and said seriously, "Even if others had your opportunities, they might not be willing to hand them over to the sect."

The things you've given to the sect are worth far more than ten thousand high-grade spirit stones. With these, you could easily establish your own sect.

Ye Feng shook his head and said, "The sect treats me very well, and I have never had any intention of setting up my own sect. Within the Sword Sect, I just grow vegetables and cook. It's not troublesome enough to start my own sect and manage all the eating, drinking, and sanitation of a sect."

These words caused Shenqing Zhenjun and Jian Chen to burst into laughter at the same time.

These words could be interpreted as Shenqing Zhenjun's whim, or they could be seen as his concern.

But after today's conversation, he basically gave up on the idea.

Words can be said freely, but feelings cannot be faked.

With only a few decades of life experience, the junior apprentice could not possibly deceive his own eyes.

...

After finishing the two plates of dumplings, everyone felt like they couldn't walk anymore.

After all, it's two pounds of dumplings plus a large plate of seafood.

After eating, I felt weak and didn't want to move, and the dumplings' effect of enhancing my understanding continued.

This left everyone feeling slightly tipsy, as if they had drunk too much alcohol.

With the two buffs stacked, everyone collapsed onto their chairs to rest after finishing their meal.

Qi Ye let out a big burp and said contentedly, "I didn't know what the ultimate goal of cultivation was before, but now I think it's to achieve immortality and be able to eat the meals cooked by my junior uncle every day."

Jue Ming, who was also lying on the side, nodded very seriously upon hearing this, indicating that he agreed with Qi Ye's words.

Liu Yun chimed in, "What I do every day now is take on missions, sing songs, and exchange cabbages for whetstones. After consuming 5 whetstones, I feel that my flying sword's strength has increased by at least 30%. Moreover, with all the delicious food from my junior uncle, my physical strength, spiritual energy absorption and conversion speed, root bone, and comprehension have all increased by more than 30%."

Not only has my cultivation level improved rapidly, but there have also been no side effects. I feel like I'll reach the Nascent Soul Realm in another month! Speaking of which, my junior uncle's culinary disaster meal even helped me overcome the Tribulation Demon hurdle. This is much better than spending all my time in seclusion before. My junior uncle is awesome!

Ningyue's face was no longer frosty; it was full of a happy expression of having eaten and drunk her fill.

Ye Chui, who had already transformed into Ye Chui, said, "Fortunately, my seclusion was short. I only advanced by one small level during the seclusion, and I've already reached the threshold of the upper stage of the Nascent Soul Realm in just a few months. If I had come out any later, I'm afraid my junior uncle would have taken everyone from the entire sect out of the Nascent Soul Realm."

Zhao Xing laughed and said, "Senior Sister, if you really go into seclusion for a longer period of time, I think I might actually be able to surpass you."

Qingyou chuckled softly, "Junior Uncle's cooking is not only delicious, but it also improves one's aptitude and attributes without any side effects. This is a rare treat, not only in a first-class sect, but probably in the entire cultivation world. I've only been taking advantage of Junior Uncle's kindness without ever having the chance to express my gratitude, which makes me feel quite embarrassed."

"The main problem is that Junior Uncle really has no ambitions or needs! As for his cultivation level, he only went from Foundation Establishment to Nascent Soul in three years. It's just speechless."

"And weapons! Two natal flying swords! Once nurtured properly, he won't need any other magic weapons. One for offense and one for defense, and he'll be invincible."

"Not to mention pills, pills are trash in his eyes."

"My Sword Sect's Scripture Pavilion doesn't set any thresholds for my uncle's cultivation techniques, so there's no way I can thank him for that."

"He's not interested in women! So even offering himself in marriage is out of the question!"

...

Shenqing Zhenjun pointed at Ye Feng with his finger, laughing so hard he could barely breathe.

Ye Feng sat to one side with a helpless yet innocent expression.

"Junior brother, look what you've done to the disciples! They don't even know how to thank you, their junior uncle! Hahahaha."

Ye Feng shrugged and said, "I don't want anything in return. Cooking is just a personal hobby of mine."

Shenqing Zhenjun said solemnly, "They ate your food and received your benefits, which is a favor. We sword cultivators have always been grateful and will repay any kindness. You should give them a chance to repay you."

Ye Feng nodded, but then scratched his head.

The main reason is that I don't seem to have anything to ask for gratitude from others.

bite!

[A problem has been detected with the host; a solution is provided below]

[Perfect-grade Tribulation-Piercing Cabbage Dumplings and Perfect-grade Tribulation-Piercing Sauerkraut Dumplings can be upgraded to Grade 7, but consuming them requires enduring extremely intense pain during the upgrade process. The final amount of cultivation gained will be based on the amount of pain endured by the host.]

[This technique provides pain-sharing, allowing a portion of the host's pain to be transferred to others. The more people involved, the lower the host's own pain and the shorter the duration. During the technique's activation, simply connect your spiritual energy to the spiritual energy emanating from the host to share the burden.]

Ye Feng was stunned when he saw the system message.

This "give up" system has this function?

Seeing Ye Feng's stunned expression, Shenqing Zhenjun asked directly, "Junior Brother, have you thought of something? Feel free to speak."

Ye Feng didn't hide anything and said directly, "Two of the dumplings I made are very special. They seem to be a reward from Heaven."

However, there is a side effect: after consuming it, there will be a period of extreme pain, and at the end, I will be rewarded with cultivation points based on the total amount of pain.

Shenqing Zhenjun frowned slightly and asked, "How painful is it? Is there a solution?"

"After eating it, it seems that my body will emit a spiritual energy. You only need to touch the spiritual energy I emit with your own spiritual energy to share some of the pain. I don't know the specific level of pain, but I think it's no less than dying with your eyes open."

After saying that, he shivered, shook his head, and said, "Forget it, I'm most afraid of pain, I won't eat it."

Shenqing Zhenjun's gaze turned cold, and he stood up abruptly.

An unparalleled aura emanated from his body.

He asked, word by word, in an icy tone, "Junior brother, are you afraid that our Shu Mountain has no one left?"
