”Brother Shishen, you did very well. From the very beginning, I had decided that you would be in charge of the food and beverages in Immortality Peach Banquet. I had never thought of finding someone to replace you.”
Niu Xiaobao's words had given God of Cookery a peace of mind.
God of Cookery did not understand the meaning behind Niu Xiaobao's words, his face was filled with suspicion as he asked.
”lord, the Kitchen God also said that he wanted to participate in the Immortality Peach Banquet. What is going on?”
Niu Xiaobao asked: ”Brother Shishen, do you want to win against the Kitchen God in public and earn enough face in front of all the immortal?”
For so many years, the Kitchen God had always suppressed the God of Cookery in terms of power. This was because the God of Cookery did not curry favor with people, and he did not have any backers in the imperial court.
To find an opportunity to take care of the Kitchen God and suppress his arrogance was something that the God of Cookery would probably dream of.
But there was no other way. After all, there was no one left in the court.
What exactly did lord mean by that?
God of Cookery looked at Niu Xiaobao with a startled expression.
Niu Xiaobao could see that God of Cookery really wanted to teach the Kitchen God a lesson, but he didn't have the confidence.
Little Treasure asked, ”What? Brother Shishen, are you not confident in your culinary skills? ”
”No, of course I'm confident in my culinary skills. lord has taught me so much knowledge on culinary arts in this period of time. In the Heavenly Court, other than lord, who can surpass me in culinary arts, no one else is a match for my God of Cookery. ”
”It's good that you're confident. I want you to shine in Immortality Peach Banquet and win against the Kitchen God in front of both of you.”
”lord's meaning is that I and the Kitchen God should prepare the Immortality Peach Banquet together. In the end, who wants to win?”
”That's right, I know that you have always wanted to win back your reputation as the God of Cookery. You will let everyone in the Heavenly Court know that you are the best chef in the Heavenly Court, so I agreed to let the Kitchen God participate in the Immortality Peach Banquet. When the time comes, you can each prepare a few dishes, and the immortal participants will decide who can cook them delicious. ”
”So that's how it is. ”However, the Kitchen God has a backer in the imperial court. Would these people be a hindrance to me on the way?”
”This is a contest of culinary skills on Immortality Peach Banquet, not a campaign for the Heavenly Court. Anyone who made something delicious would be able to taste it. Just do well with the few things that I have taught you. I promise you that you will definitely win against the Kitchen God in this time's Immortality Peach Banquet. ”
”Since lord has already said so, I can only listen to his arrangements. Don't worry lord, I will make good preparations, and I will definitely win against the Kitchen God in Immortality Peach Banquet. ”
”Brother Shishen, I believe you can do it, but I have to remind you of one thing. Before Immortality Peach Banquet starts, you must be wary of the Kitchen God, and you definitely must not let the Kitchen God know what delicious foods you have prepared this time. Niu Xiaobao reminded.
The God of Cookery nodded his head. He felt that Niu Xiaobao's words made sense, as he had been tricked by the Kitchen God before.
God of Cookery and Kitchen God had both participated in one of the Heavenly Court's culinary competitions, and the final contestants were the God of Cookery and Kitchen God.
The God of Cookery did not expect that this Kitchen God had secretly stolen the menu prepared by the God of Cookery and bribed an assistant beside him.
In this year's culinary competition, the Kitchen God had won, causing the God of Cookery to lose all face.
Just a little bit more and God of Cookery wouldn't have been able to keep his small position.
Fortunately, Heavenly Queen acknowledged her culinary skills. With her help, she managed to keep her position.
However, ever since that incident, the God of Cookery's reputation in the Heavenly Court's culinary world had greatly declined.
The Kitchen God became famous just like that, earning the title of Master of Cooking Arts in the Heavenly Court. Many ministers of the Heavenly Court invited him to their houses in private, asking him to make them some delicious food.
Coming and going, the Kitchen God had befriended many of the powerful figures in the court.
In addition, the Kitchen God was very considerate. He would often give gifts to some of the ministers that were familiar with the imperial court, and would take the initiative to deliver some delicious food to their manors.
These ministers all liked the Kitchen God so they treated the God of Cookery coldly.
Niu Xiaobao was worried that the God of Cookery would fall for his trap. He knew that the God of Cookery was not a match for the Kitchen God in terms of shrewdness and scheming.
In order to prevent everything that he and God of Cookery had prepared from going down the drain, Niu Xiaobao had especially reminded God of Cookery to be wary of the Kitchen God playing tricks on him.
