After a dazzling white light, all was finally calm.

That domineering voice rang out again.

How was my sword strike?

The voice wasn't loud, but it exuded an unparalleled domineering aura.

This stirred the blood of all the Shushan Sword Sect disciples, leaving them unable to contain their excitement.

Looking at the Guiyi Sect again, where is its mountain gate now?

Only a huge crater remained in place.

A voice came from above the Guiyi Sect.

"Brother Qingfeng's swordsmanship is superb, and his offensive and killing abilities have been unmatched in the same realm for three thousand years. Now he has taken another step forward and achieved the Great Ascension, which is certainly something to celebrate. In this matter, my Guiyi Sect acted somewhat hastily, which caused the Sword Sect's disciples to misunderstand. I will definitely prepare a generous gift to apologize in the future."

"snort."

A thunderous snort rang out, and the Sword Sect disciples found themselves floating uncontrollably.

Then the three-foot-long green sword began to grow larger until it provided a place for all the Sword Sect disciples to stand.

With a flash of blue light, the giant sword, along with all the disciples of the Sword Sect, vanished.

All that remained was devastation.

...

The Qingfeng Sword flew high in the sky at an extremely fast speed; even traveling a thousand miles in an instant was not enough to describe it.

Jian Chen activated his protective aura to envelop all the disciples, so there was no need to worry about anyone falling.

The scene from just now was still vivid in the minds of all the disciples, and they were still unable to calm down.

"Grandmaster's sword strike was so cool, hahaha! The Guiyi Sect didn't dare to utter a sound after their mountain gate was cleaved, and they even had to come back with gifts to apologize later."

"Absolutely! The words of our Grandmaster are also incredibly domineering. His voice may not be loud, but it can intimidate all heroes. I also hope to become that kind of person."

"Is that the key point? Mahayana! Our Sword Sect has another Mahayana Venerable!"

"That's right! Our grandmaster has reached the Mahayana realm. Let's see who dares to target our Shushan Sword Sect now!"

Ye Feng was still in a dazed and confused state.

Although cooking is my greatest hobby, what man doesn't dream of roaming the world with a sword and defeating all heroes with one move?

I used to think it was just a childhood dream that I had buried so deep, but the thrill I felt just now was undeniable.

You must cultivate diligently after you get back!

When I'm not cooking, I practice my skills!

As he silently made his vow, a peaceful voice resounded in his mind, completely different from the domineering one he had just spoken of.

"You must be Ye Feng?"

Ye Feng hurriedly replied, "Greetings, Grandmaster. Thank you for saving my life."

"No need for formalities. I have been in seclusion for a thousand years. If it weren't for you, I might have gone into seclusion until my death. In that case, I should thank you. It's just that the aftereffects of advancing to the Twenty-Four Solar Terms are really a headache. I even shook that 'Shaking Sword' for a whole long time, hahaha."

Ye Feng blushed slightly at these words.

I never expected that even such a big shot couldn't resist the aftereffects of advancing to the Twenty-Four Solar Terms.

This might become a unique means of dealing with enemies in the future.

"My senior brother, the sect leader, is pressing me urgently, and I can't think of a better solution right now, so..."

"Haha, I didn't mean to blame you. I saw those younger folks having a lot of fun, and I thought it was interesting too."

"Um... I'm glad you like it."

"Compared to that, I actually prefer your cooking. It's just that after you came out of seclusion, you went to participate in the sect's grand competition and unexpectedly won first place. When you return to the sect, you can come to Forbidden Mountain to find me when you have time. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have about cultivation."

Ye Feng was overjoyed.

Just when I was getting ready to train properly, a top expert came to teach me!

Good chefs are always lucky!

"Thank you, Grandmaster. I am now deeply reflecting on my mistakes and preparing to cultivate diligently. I will certainly need your help in the future."

"Huh? Your senior brother Shenqing told me that you were so engrossed in the art of food that you had no interest in cultivation. This brat actually lied to me. I'll have to teach him a lesson later."

"Well, I wasn't lying. I wasn't really interested in cultivation before, but after seeing your impressive demeanor just now, I suddenly became very interested in it!"

"Hahaha, good lad, that's a nice compliment! You are the only person in the entire cultivation world, in all these years, to advance to the advanced stage of the Nascent Soul Realm in just three years. If you cultivate diligently, your future achievements will surely surpass mine. The future of Shushan depends on you."

"Grandmaster, you flatter me. I was just lucky."

"Hmm, not arrogant or impatient, I like you. Remember to bring some food and wine to visit me at Forbidden Mountain when you have time. I'll talk to you now, you should think about how to deal with your 20,000-plus fellow disciples. They haven't had your cooking for a while, and now their eyes are practically green with envy, hahaha."

"Yes, Grandmaster."

After the conversation ended, recalling the scene that Grandmaster Qingfeng had described, a faint smile suddenly appeared on Ye Feng's lips.

It's been a while since I left the sect, and I really miss my little canteen.

And of course, there were those lovely diners.

At this moment, he had already decided what to do to entertain them.

...

...

Shushan Sword Sect.

"Junior Sister Qianyu, time to do your aerobics."

"What?! Junior Uncle is back?!"

"...Let's go, junior brother, another one's gone mad."

"What? You walked back, Junior Uncle?!"

Shen Jiao looked at her junior brother beside her, speechless.

How come someone got caught while we were calling for help?

However, Junior Uncle has indeed been gone for a long time.

I still miss him... his Kung Pao Chicken, Cumin Lamb, and Chicken Broth Xiao Long Bao.

What does stir-fried sea cucumber with scallions taste like?

How exactly does the Nine-Turned Intestine work?

How crisp and refreshing must the golden shrimp balls be?

Lost in thought, I stood there, stunned, and forgot why I had come here in the first place.

"I haven't eaten my junior uncle's cooking for 100 years. I miss him."

"It's only been 20 days at most, how come it's been a hundred years?"

"A day without food feels like three autumns, and recently my symptoms have become more and more severe, it feels like five autumns have passed."

"Now that you mention it, you're right. But Junior Uncle is really too cheeky! He left behind such a long list of dishes before leaving, which gave me endless imagination."

"Who says otherwise? I've almost eaten the plate I used to serve rice."

"My plate is already coated with batter."

"You're still the best..."

"Buzz" "Buzz" "Buzz"

The sound of swords ringing out repeatedly interrupted their conversation.

He listened intently for a moment and then hurriedly left the cave.

After forty-nine sword cries, all the disciples had gathered at the training ground.

"Forty-nine sword strikes! This honor can only be bestowed upon those who have performed extraordinary feats. Who could possibly receive such a distinction?"

"I heard that our fellow disciples from Mount Shu won first place in the sect competition!"

"Oh my god! Really?!"

"Would I lie to you? It's not some great feat that can fire forty-nine times! That's a distinction second only to eighty-one!"

"Sigh... I wonder how my senior brothers, sisters, and junior uncle are doing? Please, don't..."

"Don't worry! I heard that none of them are missing! They just suffered some injuries and will recover after some time."

"I also heard..."

"How can you have heard so much? Who told you all this?!"

"What's it to you? Are you even listening to me?"

"Listen, listen, tell me quickly."

"I heard that Junior Uncle had actually been hiding his cultivation level all along, just to make a surprise appearance in the Grand Competition. He is actually a master in the late Nascent Soul Realm! This time, it was Junior Uncle who turned the tide and won first place in the Grand Competition!"

"Well, the news I heard was indeed unreliable."

"Yeah, I think so too. Everyone knows that Junior Uncle is just a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator at level five..."

Seeing the meaningful look in his fellow disciple's eyes, this fellow disciple gradually lost his excitement.

After all, Junior Uncle's pettiness and vengefulness are well-known.
