The cultivators had long since abstained from grains and no longer needed to eat, and Su Daiyuan and the others had long forgotten what food tasted like.
They would only go down the mountain to buy a roast goose when their master was clamoring for it and making a big fuss.
They had long lost their appetite.
Now, sitting in the lobby of the restaurant, seeing their junior sister enjoying her meal, they couldn't help but swallow hard.
Sheng Ning needs to eat.
Even though she had already undergone a complete transformation and could survive simply by meditating every day.
But she had lived for so many years, eating three meals a day without fail.
She really couldn't handle changing her eating habits all at once.
Today, she and her fellow disciples went down the mountain together, and she specifically instructed the waiter to have the kitchen prepare two extra dishes.
As soon as the dishes were served, she and Bai Ze couldn't wait to start eating.
After burying her head in her food and taking a big bite of the steamed bun, Sheng Ning finally realized something was wrong and looked up. "Senior brothers, why aren't you eating?"
"It's okay, we've made some money today, so you can eat your fill, fellow disciples!"
Even a worm that had been lying on the back of her hand was now lying on the table, waiting for Sheng Ning to pick some crumbs of steamed bun for it to eat.
Looking at the table full of food, Su Daiyuan and the others were at a loss as to how to start eating.
When Yu Ye picked up her chopsticks and tasted the dish, her eyes widened instantly. "It's better than the wontons last time!"
Last time, when the group of them passed through the town, they ate wontons at Old Sun's house.
At that time, he still felt that food he hadn't touched for a long time just didn't taste that great.
Now that he has picked up his chopsticks again, he realizes that this dish is like the myriad aspects of life, and only he can truly savor its flavors.
Following Yu Ye's example, Su Daiyuan and the others also picked up their chopsticks.
When Qin Chuan and his group came downstairs with dark expressions, they saw that Sheng Ning and his group had not left.
Instead, they all slumped in their chairs, burping, their bellies full.
Seeing Qin Chuan and the others come downstairs, Sheng Ning sat up straight and waved to them, "Fellow Daoist Qin, have you eaten?"
This is perfectly normal in ordinary people's greetings.
However, Qin Chuan and the others gave all their spiritual stones, spiritual fruits, and all their possessions to Sheng Ning.
Once inside the private room, they not only failed to eat anything, but Qin Chuan also became furious because of the complaints from Xi Zhen and his group.
Sheng Ning is good at reading people's expressions.
Seeing Qin Chuan's displeased expression, she immediately shut her mouth.
But even though she kept quiet, Qin Chuan had no intention of letting her go.
A tall, slender figure in green approached her.
The moment she looked up, she heard Qin Chuan's voice above her.
"The sect's direct disciples will have a duel in five days. Do you dare to accept the challenge?"
Sheng Ning pointed to herself and asked him, "Fellow Daoist Qin, are you asking us?"
"Didn't the sect competition just end? Why is there still a duel between direct disciples of a sect?"
"I am a peace lover and I don't like fighting and killing."
Sheng Ning's words nearly made Xi Zhen and the others faint with anger.
Peace lovers?
Don't like fighting and killing?
May I ask who was wielding an unknown magical weapon, shooting wildly among them?
Qin Chuan's expression was not good.
After listening to Sheng Ning's words, he spoke again, "You destroyed the gate of the Taixu Sect. If the elders of the Taixu Sect find out about this, they will definitely destroy the Invincible Sect."
"If you can defeat us, the Taixu Sect will not pursue this matter any further."
Sheng Ning exclaimed "Ah!" and turned around to translate for her fellow students.
"I understand what Fellow Daoist Qin meant. He meant that whether we stick our necks out or not, we'll still get stabbed."
"It's all about how we choose to die."
“If we don’t fight back, the Taixu Sect will quietly wipe us out. If we fight back, we’ll be handing ourselves over to be killed.”
It must be said that Sheng Ning's reading comprehension was perfect.
After listening to Qin Chuan's words, Su Daiyuan and the others understood the meaning behind them.
But after the junior sister explained these words, they became even angrier.
"If we accept the challenge, then we accept! The Invincible Sect is not like the Taixu Sect, which plays dirty tricks in the sect competition secret realm. If we want to compete, we will compete openly and fairly."
Yu was furious and slammed his fist on the table.
The empty plates on the table bounced up as he slammed his hand on the table.
Su Daiyuan was also considering accepting the challenge.
In their past life, the Taixu Sect wiped out the Invincible Sect, but they never found a suitable opportunity to take revenge.
The previous incident of blowing up the gate and causing the Taixu Sect to suffer a hidden loss was just a minor skirmish.
Now that Qin Chuan has personally issued the challenge, if they don't accept it, it would be considered that they are admitting defeat.
Having been given a second chance at life, they were determined not to let the Taixu Sect trample under their feet again!
Seeing Yu Ye accept the challenge so readily, Xi Zhen stepped forward and said, "Let's make this clear first: if you're going to fight, then fight. You're not allowed to bring your damn stuff."
He was referring to Gatling.
Just then, Su Daiyuan and the others had acquired new spiritual artifacts, and Sheng Ning nodded in agreement to what Xi Zhen said.
"If I can't bring a gun, can I bring something else?"
"You can't use your natal magical artifacts while we can't, can you? If that's the case, then we won't allow this fight."
"In short, just don't use 'tututu' or 'bong,' the rest is up to you!" Xi Zhen waved his hand, readily agreeing to their request.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Sheng Ning had all 12 people present raise their hands and swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao.
"...Whoever runs away will be a dog for three days!" After Sheng Ning finished speaking, a red dot lit up between her eyebrows.
When Xi Zhen and the others saw that she had actually made such a vicious oath, they immediately echoed her, "Whoever runs away will be a dog for three days."
