This is some kind of divine delicacy; they've never smelled anything like it before.
Just looking at it makes it look delicious.
Some people who were eating felt like throwing their bowls away. This was just pig slop!
When did such delicious dishes appear on their imperial continent?
Why have they never even heard of it?
So, when Grandpa Nie finished his meal and was wiping his mouth with lingering satisfaction, he heard a series of swallowing sounds, as well as pairs of eyes that were practically glowing with longing.
"Cough cough cough..."
Those envious, jealous, and hateful looks almost made Old Master Nie choke and cough, causing him to choke on his last bite of food.
"Great-grandfather, are you alright? Here, have some water."
Upon seeing this, Ji Fanya quickly brought out another cup of soup with added jade ointment.
"It smells so good..."
As soon as the soup appeared, everyone's mouths watered again, and they stared at it with wide eyes.
"Um…"
Under such intense public scrutiny, for the first time, Old Master Nie found even drinking a sip of soup incredibly difficult.
However, once he took a bite, all those stares were forgotten by Old Master Nie.
This soup is so delicious! Drinking soup is definitely the most important thing right now!
"What are you looking at?"
At this moment, Ji Fanya finally noticed the gazes of the crowd, frowned and scolded unhappily, "If there's nothing else, leave."
"Swish, swish, swish..."
In an instant, the store was emptied of people.
The shopkeeper next to him saw this and just stood there with his mouth wide open and his hands outstretched, looking like he was about to cry but had no tears.
He didn't dare to shout out, "You haven't paid yet!"
"Please tell me what's wrong."
Once the shop was empty, Ji Fanya finally asked.
That's right.
Seeing that Ji Fanya was easy to talk to and not as ruthless as rumored, Old Master Nie was finally relieved and told him everything.
It turns out that after the Nie family was demoted, the King of Dongyan was extremely cruel and destroyed everyone's dantian.
As the saying goes, "when the wall falls, everyone pushes it down." Once a prominent family fell into ruin, old enemies quickly came knocking, and the Nie family began a life of hiding and fleeing.
Fortunately, the Nie family members were all cultivators in the past, and even without cultivation, their physical strength remained strong, allowing them to survive all these years.
However, it's almost reached its limit.
Just recently, after news of the Ji family women being rescued spread, and news of Ji Fanya's return arrived, the Nie family originally thought their opportunity had come and wanted to go to the Wuya Dynasty to seek refuge.
Who knew that this was what they were thinking, and so were their enemies. Fearing retaliation, they launched an even more ferocious hunt than before, wanting to wipe them out completely.
Although the people who are hiding there are still wary of conducting a large-scale open search, they cannot use spatial equipment because they lack cultivation. When they run out of ammunition and food, they will still not be able to hold on.
So, Old Master Nie thought that he was old and had lived long enough. He happened to hear that Ji Fanya had also come to the capital of Dongyan, so he thought of seeking a last chance for the family members. After changing his appearance, he pretended to be a beggar and came all the way here.
Everything went smoothly along the way, and I thought it was a foolproof plan. Little did I know that it had been discovered long ago, and I had been the laughingstock for so long.
Fortunately, these people were too arrogant and didn't kill him immediately in order to humiliate him; otherwise, the Nie family would have been finished.
