These three were all shrewd individuals. They didn't mention Ye Feng's name when they spoke, so no matter how much they criticized him, Ye Feng wouldn't sense it. After all, they were also a little afraid that he would overhear and add fuel to the fire.
Besides Li Wushuang, the Chunlu Sect Master and Jiang Lu had already suffered the same fate, and Li Wushuang was afraid that she would repeat their mistakes.
While the three were whispering to each other, Ye Feng's roasted pork belly was nearing completion.
A lot of the fat on the pork belly has been rendered out, making the whole skewer look oily.
"Sizzle..."
The oil dripped onto the charcoal fire with a soft sizzling sound, and an extremely rich aroma of meat had already enveloped the entire back mountain.
When grilling shrimp, although it smells very good because no cumin is added, its flavor range is not very large. However, when grilling pork belly, because of the addition of cumin, its flavor range is extremely explosive.
A wisp of smoke rose and drifted directly towards the horizon.
"Oh my god, that smell is back!"
"Holy crap! After waiting for so long, has it finally happened again?"
"Does anyone know what's going on with this smell?! It made my mouth water last time, and it's back again. I have to find out what's going on!"
"A reward of 100 high-grade immortal spirit stones! Can anyone tell me the exact details of this fragrance?!"
"I'm offering a reward of 150 yuan!"
"I'll pay 200 yuan!"
"I know."
Just as everyone was making noisy bids and offering rewards, a calm and refined voice suddenly rang out, and then the noisy forest fell silent.
The crowd looked in the direction of the voice and saw a refined young man. They gasped for breath and then put on fawning smiles.
"Who do I have here? It's actually Immortal Lord Yuanfeng in person! I've met Immortal Lord Yuanfeng before."
"I have met Immortal Lord Yuanfeng."
Some people who were less informed did not know who Yuanfeng Immortal Lord was. Seeing everyone bowing, they followed suit, but couldn't help but mutter, "Who is this great power? How can so many experts bow to him just by showing up?"
A knowledgeable person nearby explained with a smug look, "Don't you understand? Let me tell you, never mess with this person. This powerful senior is currently the number one person in the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm. Above him is the Quasi-Emperor. If you serve him well and catch his eye, you'll have your chance to rise to prominence in the future."
Judging from his animated expression, someone who didn't know better would think he was introducing himself.
Those who didn't understand the matter trembled upon hearing the explanation. There were many people in each realm, but there could only be one number one in each realm. They would get excited for a long time just to see a True Immortal Realm expert, but this was the number one in the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm, which was the ceiling of their understanding.
The person who offered a reward of 200 high-grade immortal spirit stones was a true immortal expert; otherwise, the reward wouldn't have been so high.
Flying Dragon Immortal rubbed his hands together and said to Yuanfeng Immortal Lord with embarrassment, "Immortal Lord, do you really know the source of this fragrance? To be honest, I really want to know. I don't know why, but after smelling it last time, I feel like that scent has been lingering in my mind. If this continues, I feel like I'll develop inner demons."
"Hahaha……"
Yuanfeng Immortal Lord laughed heartily and said, "To be honest, fellow Daoist, I was in the same situation as you, and I actually followed the scent and eventually found out the source of the fragrance."
Flying Dragon Immortal was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "May I ask where this comes from, Immortal Lord?"
Immortal Lord Yuanfeng smiled without saying a word, then gently rubbed his index finger and thumb together. True Man Feilong chuckled and directly took out 200 high-grade immortal spirit stones from the jade slip.
The others who had just placed bounties also didn't hesitate, each taking out the spirit stones they had offered as a reward.
Immortal Lord Yuanfeng accepted all the offerings without hesitation, and then said with a smile, "This fragrance comes from a place in the lower realm called the Immortal Cultivation Realm. There is a place there called the Shushan Sword Sect, and next to the Shushan Sword Sect is a small mountain pavilion, which is a restaurant. The source of the fragrance is precisely this place."
Master Feilong was taken aback, not expecting that his spending money would benefit someone else as well. However, he didn't care too much, since he had indeed received accurate information. More importantly, he didn't dare to care; he couldn't afford to offend this man.
Immortal Lord Yuanfeng calmly put away the immortal spirit stones and continued, "A trip to the lower realm consumes a lot of resources, and I know many of you will feel the pinch. But I'll tell you something for free: the food at this mountain retreat is extraordinary. Eating it will not only improve your aptitude but also directly boost your cultivation. Most importantly, there are no side effects. This is based on my personal experience. Whether you believe it or not is up to you. Oh, by the way, my friend likes the beast eggs, flower, fruit, and vegetable seeds of our immortal realm. If you prepare some, you'll surely receive a good welcome."
After saying that, he turned and left, but before leaving, he whispered to the three bounty hunters, "The owner of that mountain retreat is no ordinary person. You three must abide by the rules, or things may not end well."
Immortal Flying Dragon and the others were taken aback and hurriedly asked, "May I ask, Immortal Lord, is that person your friend?"
Yuanfeng Immortal Lord smiled and said, "He is indeed my friend, but if you dare to cause trouble, I don't need to intervene. His strength is enough to annihilate you in the lower realm. Believe it or not." After saying that, he disappeared completely.
Ironically, he came here to smell the aroma and reminisce, but now that his wife is pregnant, he can't go down to the mortal realm, so he can only smell the aroma and satisfy his craving.
He didn't actually leave, but instead burrowed underground and went to the crack in the boundary wall to sniff around.
The three, including Master Feilong, exchanged glances, finding it hard to believe the message conveyed by Immortal Lord Yuanfeng.
"Although I have no intention of causing trouble, it seems impossible to me that a person from the lower realm could kill us."
"But if it's impossible, why would the Immortal Lord say that? He has already said that they are friends, and with that relationship in place, we dare not do anything."
"The world is full of wonders. Since the Immortal Lord has said so, it is probably not far off. We should be more cautious."
"Yes, I just cast a divination for myself, and it turns out that this trip to the mortal realm is an extremely auspicious one, and there may even be some extraordinary opportunities."
"Huh? Fellow Daoist's divination results are exactly the same as mine. In that case, I believe what the Immortal Lord said must be true."
"Shall we travel together?"
"That's excellent."
