“You’re spouting nonsense!” The moment he finished his sentence, the Golden Core cultivator immediately retorted fumingly. “What they’d burned wasn’t the kitchen, they clearly burned our entire alchemy room using Deviant Fire. There were also many completed elixirs and rare spirit herb, they’d all been destroyed by this liar… person!”
The others had also joined in the condemnation.
“That’s right, the neonate formation pill that I’d spent substantially and went to great efforts to buy was also inside, everything was totally burned.”
“Yes, and my thousand year old spirit mythic plant and five hundred year-old jade spirit bark.”
“And mine, my benevolent fruit!”
“There’s also mine…”
“Supremacy.” The Golden Core cultivator took a step forward, as if having his courage to question. “These people ruined our spirit herbs and fungi and even burned down the alchemy room that we worked together to build on the pretense of wanting to learn to cook. Their intentions were truly malicious, even if you are a Soul Formation Supremacy, you should not be biased to such evil people, otherwise, we would definitely take this to the Great Court to seek justice.”
The others echoed his words in succession and resumed their aggressive manner from earlier.
Lonemoon’s expression dimmed, sweeping a glance across everyone, he peered at the recipes on the ground before making an estimated guess. “All of you are saying that, these two friends of mine was originally consulting all of you on cooking?”
“That’s right!” A cultivator wearing an apron stepped forth and said, “My Fragrant Restaurant is the most famous restaurant in Bian Immortal City, the first restaurant they’d stepped in was mine and they’d ordered a dozen of the signature dishes. I’d originally thought they were sincerely seeking guidance, hence I handed my recipes over out of goodwill. Who knew that wasn’t what they truly intended!” With that, he even sneered coldly at Yi Qing, seeming to be rather irate.
“It’s the same for our Drunken Immortal Restaurant.”
“And our…”
The rest had also begun an uproar, looking at Chef as if they were looking at their foe.
“According to what all of you said…” Lonemoon began to say in a low voice, “They did not manage to cheat you of your recipes and even set the alchemy room that all of you have built together and ruined all the spirit herbs and elixirs.”
“That’s right!” The men nodded firmly, everyone boldly and courageously displaying their anger.
Lonemoon’s expression became increasingly dark as he listened, suddenly lifting the corner of his lips, he revealed a forceful smile. “Then, do all of you cultivators think that I’m kind and good-tempered that you can fool with me as you like?!” With that said, he released his suppression once more, not holding back at all this time.
At once, all the cultivators around collapsed, dropping to their knees like they had been subjected to immense pressure, it was the same even for the Golden Core cultivator right at the front. His face paled instantly. “Supremacy… what do you mean by this?”
“What do I mean?” Lonemoon laughed coldly. “Did you think I couldn’t tell? I don’t know what kind of people you all are, but this friend of mine is a chef, in cooking, even ten of you won’t be a match for him. Any dish that he has eaten, without any help, he is able to make the exact same one. You actually dared to say that you were passing on recipes to him out of good will, hmph, what a joke!”
“…” The men’s expression saw a slight change, their eyes slightly unfocused.
“Talk about passing on recipes?” Lonemoon glanced at the huge pile of debt slips on the ground and continued. “It must be that the bunch of him realized that he was able to tell the method of cooking and ingredients used in every dish! Unwilling to take it lying down, all of you took advantage of having more people on your side and bluffed them into buying your recipes in order to swindle all the spirit stones they had, am I right?”
“…” The men began to turn pale, not daring to say a word.
