"Listen to me, quickly go downstairs to Shixiang Pavilion and get some home-style dishes. Everything that walks on the ground, flies in the sky, and swims in the sea, we want it all. Also, get a super invincible fruit and vegetable platter. This is Holy Spirit Crystals, spend it as much as you want! Also, when you come up later, climb through the window, whatever you do, don't go through the door." Jiang Yuan counted as he instructed Jiang Jun.
"Brother, but I'm just an insect!" Jiang Jun said dejectedly.
"Hey, there are plenty of battle pets in the academy, one more won't make a difference! Take my school badge, just hurry up, it's an emergency!"
After giving Jiang Jun the Holy Spirit Crystal and the school badge, Jiang Yuan threw him out of the bathroom window. Only after doing all this did he leisurely leave the bathroom.
"What are you three doing?" Jiang Yuan opened the door and saw three heads. He said speechlessly, "No way, you guys have a fetish for observing people when they go to the toilet!"
Hearing this, the two sisters blushed, and Liu Zhaodi turned around and wandered into the living room to continue watching TV.
"Alright, since you're guests, you can all go watch TV. I can handle this by myself!" Jiang Yuan planned to get the two away, otherwise how could he pull off the switcheroo?
“But the teacher asked us to help you, we…”
The two sisters hesitated, as if they wanted to say something but then stopped.
"No need, you'll only make things worse," Jiang Yuan refused the two.
Seeing this, Liu Zhaodi spoke up in the living room: "Since you don't need help, then you don't need to go into the kitchen. Just stand outside and learn more about Jiang's cooking skills."
Jiang Yuan: "..."
He strongly suspected that Liu Zhaodi was deliberately messing with him, and he knew the reason for it without even guessing—it must be because of his clumsy attempt to get back at An Xiaoyu in Dongcheng. But he was annoyed. Liu Zhaodi and An Xiaoyu were best friends who could talk about anything, shouldn't they be more tolerant and understanding in this kind of situation? Why were they all making things difficult for him, and their stances were surprisingly consistent?
"Okay, teacher, we will definitely learn from Jiang's cooking skills!" Xu Xin stood at the door watching Jiang Yuan cook, just like she was doing a break task.
"You win!"
Jiang Yuan weakly passed a message to Liu Zhaodi, and then, without cleaning up the pots and pans, he took out the beginner's alchemy cauldron he had received when he enrolled.
"Jiang, what are you doing?"
The Xu sisters, Xu Xin and Xu Yi, were confused by Jiang Yuan's actions. Wasn't he supposed to be showcasing his culinary skills? Why did he bring out a medicine cauldron?
"There are three thousand great paths, but they all lead to the same destination. Cooking and alchemy are actually the same principle. During the time I spent with Teacher Liu, I have kept his earnest teachings in mind. Since Teacher Liu is here today, I must show him the results of my efforts during this period and prove that Teacher Liu's kindness to me has been rewarded!" Jiang Yuan offered this explanation, but only he knew the real reason behind it.
With two 'eyes and ears' watching, how could he secretly switch the ingredients when he was cooking? So we need to replace it with a more airtight medicine cauldron. Then we can just throw in some ingredients, take out the takeout we ordered, and do it all in one go. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
"As expected of the assistant that Teacher Liu specifically requested, his talent in the field of pharmacist is beyond our reach!" Xu Xin quickly took out a pen and paper to write down Jiang Yuan's words.
Xu Yi, who was standing next to him, kept nodding, but her gaze was mostly fixed on Jiang Yuan's face, making Jiang Yuan feel extremely embarrassed.
"Student Xu is too modest. I just happened to receive the teacher's favor." Jiang Yuan flattered Liu Zhaodi at the right moment, saying self-deprecatingly that when it came to the self-cultivation of a scumbag, he was absolutely serious.
Xu Xin and Xu Yi nodded obediently on the surface, but secretly thought to themselves: "It's clearly because you skipped class on the first day that Teacher Liu targeted you. It's not pity, it's more like a trial."
While chatting, Jiang Yuan skillfully fiddled with the medicine cauldron, adding ingredients and seasonings from time to time, making him look just like a five-star chef.
"Big brother, I'm back. Where do I go from here?"
Just when Jiang Yuan's acting was about to give way, the tardigrade returned.
Jiang Yuan glanced at the kitchen, then leaned to the side and said in his mind, "Climb in through the kitchen window."
Before long, Jiang Jun wobbled up to the windowsill, and Jiang Yuan took the opportunity to turn around and block the two sisters' view, successfully taking the storage ring full of delicious food from Jiang Jun's hand.
"Brother, this meal cost a lot of money. I paid 10,000 low-grade Holy Spirit Crystals for cutting in line, and another 10,000 for the extra tip for cooking in batches. And those dishes you mentioned cost hundreds of thousands of low-grade Holy Spirit Crystals." Jiang Jun quickly returned to the Samsara Space to continue recuperating.
"It's okay, money is meant to be spent!"
Jiang Yuan had no concept of spending this much money; he only knew that he was very rich and could never spend all his money on things like eating, drinking, and having fun.
He glanced at the dishes in the storage ring with his mind. Jiang Jun had only prepared four main dishes because of time constraints: the spirit pheasant that walks on the ground, the wing tips of the spotted cloud eagle that flies in the sky, the golden algae shrimp that swims in the sea, and a large platter of various spirit fruits and vegetables. Of course, in addition to the main dishes, Shi Xiang Ge also gave several side dishes that looked like radish soup.
"He's quite a help!" Jiang Yuan praised Jiang Jun.
"Then, brother, can I eat the Mark of the Dead in your Reincarnation Space?" Jiang Jun seized the opportunity. As an undead servant in the Reincarnation Space, the most nourishing treasure for him was definitely the Mark of the Dead.
"Okay, but don't touch the ones I've set up with restrictions!" Jiang Yuan instructed.
The restrictions he placed on the reincarnation space were the marks of the dead of those who had fought alongside him in the South City, and he would resurrect these people sooner or later.
"Don't worry, brother, even if you don't tell me, I can't touch that thing." Jiang Jun plunged into the sea of the marks of the dead and began to freely swim in this 'Shangri-La'.
"Here comes the first dish!"
Jiang Yuan presented the first dish of Lingjin Chicken as if by magic, leaving Xu Xin and Xu Yi looking on with suspicion.
"This...this is done?" Xu Yi hadn't seen Jiang Yuan cook, but this was too simple.
"Cooking is just like concocting medicine, it's a piece of cake!"
After the first dish of Spirit Brocade Chicken was made, Jiang Yuan completely let loose. In no time, delicious dishes kept coming out of the newly made alchemy cauldron in Jiang Yuan's hands.
