It had to be known that Wang Yi was suffering from terminal laziness. If not for the fact that the matter concerning the Yang God Race was too dangerous and that Venerable Ning Jing had invited him warmly, he would not have bothered to go out.
Given the current situation of the human race in the Langya Domain, it would definitely be even more difficult in the future.
If he wanted to continue staying in Cang City and enjoy his life with Su Shiya, he definitely needed experts to stand up and face the crisis.
Therefore, it was still necessary to nurture some top-notch beings.
In the entire Langya Domain, where were the most peak-level Rank-9 grandmasters? Anyone with a brain would know that they were definitely subordinates of the Venerable Palace.
In order to enjoy his life in peace in the future, Wang Yi felt that it was worth contributing some resources.
Venerable Ning Jing naturally understood what Wang Yi meant. He was just trying to give her a way out.
She was not stupid. What kind of guidance could be worth so many precious resources? Obviously, Wang Yi was doing this to take care of her pride.
However, these things were too important to the humans in the Langya Domain. She could not reject them at all.
She took a deep breath.
Then, Venerable Ning Jing stood up and cupped her fists. “This item is very important, so I have to shamelessly accept it.”
“I’ll remember your favor, Fellow Daoist. I’ll definitely repay you in the future.”
To be honest, Venerable Ning Jing had mixed feelings. She suddenly felt like she had nowhere to spend her money after becoming rich.
It had to be said that the Nine Transformation Lightning Rod Fruits that Wang Yi had given her were indeed enough to support 100 peak-level Rank-9 grandmasters to complete their physical transformation and step into the Peak Realm.
Unfortunately, although there were many experts in the Langya Domain, they could not gather 100 peak-level Rank-9 grandmasters.
The current situation was that there were enough resources, but a lack of people to use them on.
Perhaps this was the trouble that rich people faced.
Wang Yi also stood up and cupped his fists in return. Then, he smiled and said, “These are all trivial matters. Fellow Daoist Ning Jing, you don’t have to take them to heart.”
After deciding to accept Wang Yi’s favor, Venerable Ning Jing suddenly let go. She felt like she had nothing to lose.
It was said that it would not itch when there were too many lice, and that one didn’t have to worry when there were too many debts. This was based on the principle that once one owed a favor to someone, the number of favors owed would not matter.
Venerable Ning Jing looked at Wang Yi and changed the topic with a smile. “The chef has already prepared a banquet in advance. However, I heard from Wu Shuang that your culinary skills are unparalleled, comparable to the Heavenly Palace immortal banquet.”
“I wonder if I can have the fortune of tasting Fellow Daoist’s cooking?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Wu Shuang and Su Shiya’s gazes landed on Wang Yi almost at the same time. They looked at him eagerly.
Ever since the last time, Wu Shuang had been thinking about when she would be able to taste Wang Yi’s cooking again.
As for Su Shiya, it was entirely because she had always been fed by Wang Yi. She was probably not used to other people’s cooking.
Wang Yi was a little stunned. This was the first time he had heard of a host requesting the guest to cook.
However, when he looked at the three women staring at him, Wang Yi couldn’t help but support his forehead with his hand and say helplessly, “I didn’t say I wouldn’t do it.”
“Where’s the kitchen?”
At this moment, Wu Shuang seemed the most enthusiastic. Almost immediately, she said, “Over here.”
“Lord Venerable, let me lead you there!” As she spoke, he led Wang Yi towards the kitchen.
At this moment, only Su Shiya and Venerable Ning Jing were left in the hall.
To be honest, Su Shiya did not feel anything when Wang Yi was here just now, but now, she was the only one left. When facing the only ruler of the human race in the Langya Domain, her heart was more or less pounding.
However, what Su Shiya did not expect was that not only did Venerable Ning Jing not put on any airs, but she also did not have that feeling of superiority.
Instead, she was like a big sister next door who discussed how to put on makeup and how to wear clothes. She was talking about topics that only ordinary girls would care about.
Su Shiya really couldn’t understand why Venerable Ning Jing would study these things with her identity.
Not long after, Wu Shuang pushed the dining cart in. Wang Yi followed behind and saw the two women chatting and laughing. He was a little curious as to what they were chatting so happily about.
The three of them sat still…
Meanwhile, Wu Shuang placed the dishes on the dining table one by one and filled the wine glasses in front of everyone. Then, she stood aside like a waitress.
Upon seeing this, Su Shiya couldn’t help but say, “Sister Wu Shuang, sit too.”
Wu Shuang did not immediately take her seat. Instead, she turned her attention to Venerable Ning Jing.
Venerable Ning Jing couldn’t help but smile and say, “Why are you looking at me? Hurry up and thank Madam.”
Upon hearing this, Wu Shuang’s face instantly revealed a look of surprise. She bowed to Su Shiya and said, “Thank you, Madam.”
Then, she found a seat and sat down.
With the identities of the three people present, even if Wu Shuang was a top grandmaster, she was actually not qualified to sit with them.
Therefore, no matter how much she coveted Wang Yi’s cooking, she only stood there and waited on them.
However, as the wife of a Venerable, Su Shiya invited her to sit with them. Venerable Ning Jing also nodded in agreement, so there should be no problems.
Venerable Ning Jing raised the wine glass in front of her and said to Wang Yi and Su Shiya, “Let’s toast to Fellow Daoist Wang and Sister Shiya.”
“Welcome to my humble abode!” With that, she drained her glass.
Wang Yi and Su Shiya also raised their glasses and drank.
The wine in this world was quite good. Although it was not as strong and spicy as the white wine in his previous life, it had a special faint fruit fragrance. At the very least, it was suitable for both men and women.
Wang Yi couldn’t help but look at the two women suspiciously. Just now, they were still addressing each other as Madam. It had only been a while, but they were already so familiar with each other!
Meanwhile, Wu Shuang filled everyone’s glasses. Venerable Ning Jing raised her glass again and said, “This second glass is for Fellow Daoist Wang.”
“Thank you, Fellow Daoist Wang, for destroying the beast tide and killing the Demon Venerable’s clone. You injured the main body of Demon Venerable Tiandu and saved the lives of thousands of living beings in Cang City.”
Then, she drained her glass again.
Wang Yi had no choice but to finish the wine in his cup. Just as he was about to say something, he was interrupted by Venerable Ning Jing. “Wu Shuang has already told me the reason for the siege. Fellow Daoist, you don’t have to take it to heart.”
“It’s true that the beast siege was resolved by you, it’s true that the Demon Venerable’s incarnation was killed by you, and it’s also true that the millions of living beings in Cang City survived because of you.”
“Those are already enough!”
Wang Yi was speechless and did not know what to say. He did not want to continue pestering her about this matter.
At this moment, Wu Shuang had already filled his glass again. Venerable Ning Jing raised her glass for the third time. “This third glass still has to be for Fellow Daoist Wang.”
“Thank you, Fellow Daoist Wang, for providing us with information about the Yang God Race so that we can make preparations in advance and not be caught off guard by those guests from an alternate world.”
Venerable Ning Jing’s words were exactly what Wang Yi was concerned about and the main purpose of his trip.
Wang Yi finished his wine again and said, “Fellow Daoist Ning Jing, there’s no need to hold back. As a human, this is my duty.”
“However, I wonder if Fellow Daoist Ning Jing has discovered any traces of the Yang God Race in the past few days?”
