Ye Feng's movements while kneading the dough were as beautiful as a painting.

Every kneading and every slapping motion is full of captivating charm.

Unlike most people who are forced to choose the culinary profession, he genuinely loves cooking.

He once spent a whole year searching for clues and ingredients in order to recreate a famous dish that had been lost to the Chinese people.

While the dough is resting, start preparing the ingredients for the braising liquid.

Cut the ham into small pieces, put the spices in a bowl and pour in white wine to remove the bitterness.

Turn on the heat and melt the butter, chicken fat, lard, and mutton fat in the pot.

Remove the spices and start frying them slowly over low heat.

While we're at it, let's continue kneading the dough.

As the chili peppers and beef were poured in, a wonderful aroma filled the kitchen.

Wu Qiuyu had been watching for a while.

The disciples under the sect naturally have protectors when they undergo tribulation, but the disciples are not informed of this.

Although something unexpected happened to this disciple during his last tribulation, the tribulation demon left ahead of time.

But this isn't unprecedented, so there's no need to be surprised.

Seeing him emerge from the cave, they knew he had safely survived the tribulation, and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, this kid secretly went to the kitchen.

Out of curiosity, Wu Qiuyu followed along.

Watching Ye Feng focus intently on cooking, I couldn't help but sigh.

If this kid had practiced his skills like cooking, he wouldn't have taken three years to successfully establish his foundation.

Huh? What is this food? It smells so good.

Wu Qiuyu was surprised to find that her mouth was starting to water again after a long time.

How many years has it been since I felt this way?

That was when I was a child, and I would sit by the stove waiting to eat the meat my mother stewed. Hundreds of years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Wu Qiuyu smiled slightly, revealed her true form, and said, "Ye Feng, make me another bowl."

Ye Feng was startled by the sudden voice. Seeing that it was an outer sect elder, he hurriedly bowed and said, "Greetings, Elder Wu."

"No need for formalities, just continue cooking."

After replying "yes," Ye Feng continued with his work.

After stretching the noodles into long, cloth-like strips, they were placed into boiling water.

While the noodles were cooking, I casually tossed in some baby spinach.

While stirring, pour in cold water to prevent the noodles from sticking together.

Once cooked, scoop out the noodles and place them in a large white porcelain bowl.

The vibrant green spinach and the glistening noodles complement each other beautifully in the bowl.

A large spoonful of gravy, brimming with chili peppers and beef, was poured in.

He then scooped up a braised egg with a spoon, put it in the bowl, and handed it to Wu Qiuyu.

Shijiazhuang Authentic Anhui Beef Noodles

The enticing aroma wafting from the bowl made Wu Qiuyu's mouth water.

He picked up a glistening noodle and put it in his mouth, his eyes widening immediately.

It's absolutely delicious!

The chewy noodles, soaked in the red broth, are so delicious that one bite feels like it reaches the very depths of your soul.

The slightly spicy flavor and the enticing aroma of beef make it irresistible.

Sword cultivators are always straightforward and have a clear understanding of swordsmanship.

Faced with such delicious food, Wu Qiuyu disregarded his image.

The sound of slurping noodles could be heard continuously.

[Perfect Volcanic Snow - Rating 1 star. The perfect knife skills preserve the juice of the love fruit to the maximum extent, and the just-right amount of white sugar makes this a visually appealing dish.]

Ye Feng placed a plate of Volcanic Snow in front of Wu Qiuyu.

There was also a small dish of peeled garlic on the side.

After all, eating noodles without garlic takes away half the flavor.

Wu Qiuyu has now completely transformed into a foodie.

Seeing that there was new delicious food, they started eating it with lightning speed.

With a "bang," Wu Qiuyu put the bowl on the table.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with great enthusiasm, "Another bowl, please!"

As soon as Wu Qiuyu finished speaking, a steaming bowl of noodles was placed in front of her.

Ye Feng smiled slightly, everything was already under control.

No one can finish just one bowl of the noodles I make!

He finds more satisfaction in watching others devour the food he cooks than in eating it himself.

After eating five bowls of noodles and three plates of "Volcano Snow," Wu Qiuyu finally let out a satisfied burp.

"Elder Wu, do you still want it?"

Too full to even speak, she shook her head, touching her stomach with one hand and giving a thumbs-up with the other.

Ye Feng's eyes lit up.

For a gourmet, researching new cuisines is a lifelong pursuit.

Providing delicious food for others is my greatest hobby.

If cooking for others could earn him new recipes, that would be wonderful for him.

The leader of the outer sect happened to be here, so he asked directly:

"Elder Wu, I'd like to take charge of the outer sect's canteen from now on. What do you think?"

Wu Qiuyu frowned and said:

"Although your cooking is delicious, it only satisfies your appetite."

Cultivation is the foundation of your character; you've put the cart before the horse.

"Elder, please forgive me. When I was cooking, I was completely focused on my work, and I actually felt that my cultivation speed was faster than before."

After speaking, Ye Feng formed a sword incantation with his hands, revealing his cultivation level at the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

Wu Qiuyu took a closer look and confirmed that he had indeed broken through to the initial stage.

There are more than 10,000 outer disciples, and Wu Qiuyu naturally couldn't possibly know the cultivation level of each one.

But since she was protecting this disciple today, she naturally knew about his cultivation level.

She confirmed that Ye Feng was only at the initial stage of Foundation Establishment yesterday.

Unexpectedly, after overcoming the tribulation, I directly reached the beginner level.

He asked in confusion, "You killed the Demon of Calamity?"

The tribulation demons are incredibly resilient; they usually survive by simply holding on for as long as possible.

However, some exceptionally talented individuals possess unparalleled combat prowess and can even slay the Demon of Calamity.

After defeating the Demon of Calamity, you will receive feedback from the Heavenly Dao and gain an improvement in your cultivation.

Ye Feng didn't hide anything.

The sect has treated me well, so I should naturally share any good things with them.

"Elder, please forgive me. While I was resting, I dreamt of an old man who told me about a recipe that could influence the demon of calamity."

After saying that, he took out a bucket of stinky tofu directly from the jade slip.

As soon as it was taken out, a foul stench wafted out.

Wu Qiuyu immediately knew who the culprit was who had poisoned the sect.

He quickly shut down his sense of smell. "What kind of old man? Does this stuff really work?"

Wu Feng began to recall the image of Mr. Yu in his mind.

"He looked like an old man around 50 years old, with short, curly hair that looked like it had been permed, and he was always holding a gourd of wine in his hand."

Yes, he always had a magical artifact that could glow and emit smoke in his mouth, and he could occasionally exhale some smoke from his mouth.

I used this fried green onion when I was going through a tribulation.

Once the demon is unleashed, it will eagerly devour it.

After that, it was as if I was frozen in place, completely at their mercy.

However, the injury will awaken the Demon of Calamity, so he will need to be fed another bucket.

Wu Qiuyu was startled and immediately stood up, saying, "Are you telling the truth? Can it really affect the Demon of Calamity?"

"It's true, I've already tested it during my tribulation today, and the tribulation demon is indeed affected."

Wu Qiuyu grabbed Ye Feng.

With a flick of his sword, he pulled him away in a streak of light.
