Everyone sized up the old man carefully for a moment, and someone said in a low voice,
“Is this old man our generation’s Culinary God?”
The old man’s clothes were tattered and he looked out of place in a high-end restaurant like Sea Heaven.
However, he traveled smoothly and no one stopped him when he reached the second floor. This made people feel that he was very extraordinary.
Coupled with the Mystic Shadow Wine Gourd on his back, it was easy for the people in the clouds to guess that he was the famous Culinary God who had dominated Lower Cloud Heaven for 50,000 years.
Dongfang Yu!
According to the legend, Dongfang Yu was an extremely special martial arts genius.
He wasn’t well-rounded in many other cultivation techniques, like other geniuses.
Instead, he focused on eating and relied on food to increase his cultivation.
Of course, as a prodigy of his generation and a “Culinary God”, his way of eating was definitely different from that of ordinary people.
Not only did he have extremely high requirements for food, but he also required everything he ate to be top-notch in terms of color, fragrance, and taste.
Furthermore, he could absorb a large amount of spiritual power from many foods to quickly increase his cultivation level.
For example, a piece of spirit beast meat.
After ordinary cultivators ate it, they wouldn’t be hungry for a few days. They would be energetic and would be able to obtain a little spiritual power.
After he ate it, not only could he absorb all the nutrition of this spirit beast meat, but he could also obtain ten to twenty percent of spiritual power.
With such a comparison, it could be seen that he could simply eat the meat of spirit beasts as medicinal pills to increase his cultivation.
Due to such a strange cultivation method, Dongfang Yu quickly became famous.
He even reached the Emperor Realm at the age of a thousand and became a famous martial arts powerhouse.
His reputation as the Culinary God also spread throughout Lower Cloud Heaven.
Therefore, they easily associated the old man in front of them with the Culinary God.
A middle-aged man in green sitting in the corner stood up and said,
“He’s the Culinary God! I saw him two years ago.”
Swish!
After the green-robed man finished speaking, everyone revealed looks of awe.
The appearance of the Culinary God in the Sea Heaven Restaurant made everyone present feel lucky.
Dongfang Yu cupped his hands at everyone.
“That’s just an empty title. It’s not worth mentioning!”
“I’m just a person who likes to taste the most delicious food in the world!”
Originally, he wasn’t prepared to enter Sea Heaven Restaurant.
It was only because they smelled the strange aroma coming from the second floor that they came to the people on the second floor.
As he spoke, he acutely followed the aroma and walked towards Lin Xuan’s table.
The green-robed man bowed and said, “Culinary God, you’re proficient in delicacies and no one can compare to you. Can you analyze what the spices he used are?”
When he said this, everyone revealed expectant gazes.
The fragrance of Lin Xuan’s special seasoning powder was unique and made people curious about what it was made of.
Dongfang Yu came to Lin Xuan’s table and raised his right hand to condense an aroma.
After comprehending carefully, he slowly said,
“Top-grade Heavenly Jade Celery, Polar Sea Musk, Snow Region Octagon, and… and…”
As he spoke, he shook his head.
The green-robed man hurriedly asked, “What else?”
Dongfang Yu pondered for a moment and smiled bitterly. “I can only distinguish so many ingredients!”
Hiss ~
Everyone was slightly shocked.
As a top-notch connoisseur, Dongfang Yu could only distinguish three ingredients. This really surprised everyone.
Everyone thought about it. How powerful must a person be to make a spice that even Dongfang Yu couldn’t recognize?
Perhaps only an otherworldly person could have such ability!
Dongfang Yu opened his spiritual sense and saw Lin Xuan’s white-robed figure. He hurriedly cupped his hands and asked,
“May I ask who made this spice?”
Xuan Zhu raised her hand and said proudly, “My father made it!”
“This…”
Dongfang Yu revealed a respectful expression and hurriedly cupped his hands.
“I’ve eaten all over the world, but I’ve never encountered such a fragrant spice. The young master is really talented!”
“I’m thick-skinned. Please reward me with a few pieces of delicious food and let me taste the aromatic food that is unparalleled in the world!”
As he spoke, he bowed respectfully to Lin Xuan.
Everyone sighed with emotion.
As the Culinary God, countless culinary experts wanted to invite Dongfang Yu to taste their dishes, but they couldn’t.
However, when it came to Lin Xuan, Dongfang Yu actually took the initiative to bow and ask Lin Xuan to give him food. This really blew everyone’s mind.
On second thought, everyone felt that if they could eat the dishes Lin Xuan scattered spices over, it would be worth it even if they had to bow a few more times!
Lin Xuan pushed one of the plates forward indifferently. “This plate is all for you!”
He could tell that Dongfang Yu purely admired the taste of the seasoning powder, so he generously gave him a plate.
“That’s great! Thank you, Young Master!”
Dongfang Yu was overjoyed. He hurriedly picked up the plate and sat at the side before putting a piece of seafood into his mouth.
“Mmm!”
Dongfang Yu cried out in surprise and took out the wine gourd on his back. He opened the lid and took a few mouthfuls.
Everyone sighed with emotion. “I heard that the Culinary God only opens his moon shadow wine gourd to take a few sips of wine when he eats his favorite delicacies. It seems like the spices Young Master made really whet his appetite!”
Dongfang Yu smiled and said, “Not only is my appetite great, but I can say with confidence that Young Master’s culinary attainments are definitely peerless in the world!”
“He’s undoubtedly a Master Chef!”
Dongfang Yu’s words shocked everyone.
The Culinary God actually gave Lin Xuan such a high evaluation. This…
“It seems like Young Master is really talented. No one can compare to him!”
At this moment, a deep voice sounded. “Of course. After all, he’s the North Mystic Heaven’s Consort!”
Everyone turned around and saw a green-robed man quickly walking over from the staircase.
He came in front of Lin Xuan and bowed respectfully. “Greetings, Consort!”
“So it’s Sect Master Zhou.” Lin Xuan looked at him calmly.
This person had entered the mystic realm with him on the Primordial Ancient Island, so he had some impression of him.
“That’s me!” Zhou Xun was flattered when he saw that Lin Xuan remembered him. “I was preparing to eat at this restaurant, but I didn’t expect to encounter you. I’m really lucky!”
With that, the elders and disciples of the Starry Sect who followed him upstairs also bowed and greeted Lin Xuan excitedly.
When they heard that Lin Xuan was Empress Mystic Ice’s husband, the entire second floor was in an uproar.
“So it’s the Consort. No wonder his aura is so extraordinary!”
Everyone hurriedly stood up and gathered in front of Lin Xuan to bow to him.
Dongfang Yu stood up excitedly and bowed to Lin Xuan repeatedly.
“I actually took the Consort’s food just now. I was really rude. Please forgive me!”
Lin Xuan waved his hand indifferently. “It’s okay. It’s just a plate of food. It’s not worth mentioning.”
“Thank you, Consort!” Dongfang Yu nodded repeatedly and praised Lin Xuan’s gentleness.
Then, he took out a Mystic Light Golden Plate and handed it to Lin Xuan.
“Consort, the Culinary God Assembly will be held in seven days. If you don’t participate, you will definitely pale in comparison!”
“Consort, please accept this Mystic Light Golden Plate and make time to attend the meeting!”
Then, he told Lin Xuan that this Culinary God Assembly was jointly held by him and a few chefs in the world.
The goal of the meeting was to choose the strongest prodigy of the new generation in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm and the Cang Dragon Continent’s culinary world through competition in order to promote the healthy development of the culinary world.
Dongfang Yu felt that Lin Xuan had a prominent identity and superb culinary skills, so it was very suitable for him to attend the meeting as a VIP.
When the little girls heard that there was actually an interesting occasion like the Culinary God Assembly, they hurriedly pulled Lin Xuan’s hand and shook it.
“Father, let’s go take a look!”
“Alright, Daddy will bring you guys there!” Lin Xuan immediately agreed.
Since his daughters were so interested, he naturally had to bring them there to broaden their horizons.
“That’s great!”
Seeing Lin Xuan accept the Mystic Light Golden Plate, Dongfang Yu was extremely happy.
In the eyes of many serious cultivators, the culinary world wasn’t something glamorous.
However, Dongfang Yu firmly believed that as long as Lin Xuan attended, it would definitely change everyone’s prejudice against the culinary world.
Phew ~
Just as everyone returned to their seats and were about to continue enjoying the delicacies, the sky suddenly darkened.
A cold aura rushed through the window from the outside.
“What’s going on?”
Zhou Xun and the others hurriedly opened the window and looked out.
The blue light in the distant sky blocked their vision. It was as if a huge, majestic and powerful wall stood between heaven and earth.
“Shit, something big is going to happen!”
