Chapter 1 Something Happened to the Porridge!
In a daze, Su Yu opened her eyes.
Looking up, she saw a black and cyan robe in front of her. A clean smell of soap lingered into her nose.
"Junior Sister, Senior Brother will go down the mountain to find Master. I will leave Zhiqiong Peak to you for the time being."
The man’s voice was warm, like spring water taken from the mountain in autumn. At the same time, it was cool but not piercing cold.
Su Yu tried to look up at him.
Vaguely, she saw his robes fluttering. His eyes were bright, and his eyebrows were sharp. His black hair was tied up high, and he carried a giant sword behind him. His black sleeves slightly lifted and his sharply sculpted hand stretched out to her.
The five fingers were slender, and the skin was smooth.
‘These hands would be the best in making Dragon Beard Candy…’
Su Yu couldn't help but want to touch the hand to see if it was as powerful as she imagined.
But instead, her outstretched hand touched a small golden square seal handed to her.
"This is the seal of the master of the peak. Junior Sister has to take good care of it."
"Remember, from now on, you should take care of our martial brothers and sisters on my behalf. Supervise the morning classes and evening exercises, and be diligent in practicing..."
Su Yu: "..."
'You can really dream of anything. Ha!'
She remembered that she was happily leaving on a plane to travel around the country for 128 days. It was a 5-diamond customized tour that her sous chef had booked for her.
Three days before the tour, she brought a dozen team members to successfully obtain a three-star Michelin rating. After five years of hard work and training her assistant chefs to function on their own, she could finally breathe a sigh of relief and decided to relax and retire.
What now? Discipline others? Peak Master?
Hey.
This handsome guy looks beautiful and thinks more beautifully.
[T/N: "You think beautiful!" is a common Chinese phrase similar to "You wish!" or "Keep dreaming!"]
"I left a note to Junior Sister about some relevant points. Remember, read it carefully."
Su Yu wanted to speak out but found that she couldn't make a sound. She could only watch silently as the black-haired man with a broadsword left the room.
She woke up suddenly in bed.
'Huh, it was a dream.'
But before she could sit up with a sigh of relief, she felt something weird when she put her hands on the bed.
When she looked down, she saw a small golden square item in her palm, exactly like the one in her dream.
Su Yu looked at the small seal helplessly and found three small characters engraved on it - Zhiqiong Peak.
This name is quite familiar...
Isn't this the Zhiqiong Peak in the fairy tale novel "I Am Everyone White Moonlight" recommended by her sous chef?
The villainess, Su Yu, has the same name and surname as her, but she is just the female lead's cannon fodder comparison girl.
Su Yu touched her forehead.
The memory of the original owner immediately appeared in her mind. She turned her head hurriedly and looked at the pillow.
Sure enough, there was a letter there.
The original owner received the letter three days ago.
'What was it?'
In the novel, the female protagonist brought her junior brothers and sisters to prosperity, while the villainess, Su Yu, led her junior brothers and sisters to disappear or be injured...
She must not become this villainess, Su Yu!
She opened the letter.
Before she could read the words, the ink on the paper floated in the air as if they were black dragons wandering in rows.
[Zhiqiong Peak has several extremely critical affairs that you need to be vigilant about from time to time. Once it happens, the consequences are unimaginable.]
[Third Junior Brother's meridians were damaged five years ago. So currently, he cannot condense a Golden Core. Otherwise, he may not be able to cultivate anymore in his life.]
[Fourth Junior Brother specializes in qin music, but his inner demon is intractable. Once it is out of control, he could go crazy and lose his mind.]
[Fifth Junior Brother wants to join a merchant family in Nancheng...]
[Sixth Junior Brother has an impure sword heart...]
[Seventh Junior Sister cultivates the Seven Emotions and Six Desires practice...]
[...]
In the novel, Su Yu's Third Junior Brother tried to condense a golden core and failed. Consequently, he fell into the abyss of self-hatred and loathing…
Su Yu: Pulling her feet. JPG.
'It's over.'
Su Yu sat on the bed feeling numb and incredulous. To get her bearings, she sorted out the memory of the original owner and the letter's main points.
She quickly got out of bed.
There is nothing in this world that Master Su cannot solve by cooking a meal.
Not in the past twenty five years.
Absolutely nothing!
Su Yu folded the letter, kept it in the spatial storage bag on her waist, and walked to the door.
The door snapped open.
Managing a peak is like managing a kitchen.
As long as she finds a suitable deputy and gets everyone to perform their duties, Master Su will be able to retire and continue to relax.
"Ah, she came out."
"Oh, Fourth Senior Brother, I'm leaving first!"
"I'm going to Jianlin."
"Hey, I have to attend the array class..."
As soon as Su Yu took a step outside her room, several blue-robed disciples quickly turned around and disappeared in front of her as if they could not get away fast enough.
In the blink of an eye, there was only a thin young man, holding a qin, left in the courtyard.
Master Su stiffened at the sight of this.
The original owner served as a cannon fodder foil to the heroine. Presumably, the other party borrowed her luck. As a result, Su Yu went from being the original wind spiritual root cultivation genius to a waste with five spiritual roots.
Although she ranked second in Zhiqiong Peak, she was only in the fifth stage of Qi Refining, which was not as good as her juniors. Due to this, she was always mean and indifferent to them.
[Junior Sister, the rule in Nanxun Sect is that if the peak master is unavailable, someone must take over in order of seniority. So when Eldest Senior Brother goes down the mountain, the position of the temporary peak master can only be handed over to you, who is ranked second. You don't usually have a good relationship with everyone, but you must try to get along. Cultivation takes a hundred years. Now, when your brother goes down the mountain, it is an opportunity for you to change the status quo.]
The letter from the handsome brother is really euphemistic.
Can this be called a bad relationship?
Su Yu scratched her nose and walked towards the thin young man, who was the only one left.
Based on the yellow wood guqin in front of him, this person was obviously her fourth junior brother, who had a heart demon and was later disabled.
Su Yu glanced at him and sighed inwardly.
The guqin was a little thicker than his shoulders, and his phoenix eyes made him look even thinner.
[T/N: Qin or Guqin is a seven-string Chinese musical instrument, like a zither.]
‘Look at how thin this child is. If you keep practicing and not eating, can you not grow a heart demon?’
Great people have said that eating is the most important thing in the world.
"Have you eaten yet?"
Lu Yizhou was at a loss.
His eldest senior brother had left for three days, and his second senior sister stayed behind closed doors. She usually doesn't care about things on the peak and gets upset when she sees them.
Now that his second senior sister is forced to take over the position of the peak master, she is definitely not happy. She will have to find someone to vent to.
Before he could stop being panicked by these thoughts, he heard that question being spoken in a gentle tone. Her voice was clear and light, like a breeze blowing on his face in the early spring of March.
In amazement, Lu Yizhou raised his head and saw Su Yu's bright smile.
"I, I've used Bigu Pills."
[T/N: Bigu is a cultivator fasting method. One Bigu Pill will make people not hungry for several days.]
Su Yu nodded. She was about to go study the elixir used to satisfy hunger in this Immortal Cultivation world when Lu Yizhou stopped her.
"Second Senior Sister, I have a qin class today, and I can't be absent. Can you take care of Third Senior Brother for me and warm up the porridge in the kitchen for him at noon? His golden core is now broken, and he is unable to fast, so he must eat some rice porridge..."
Lu Yizhou regretted it as soon as he said it.
He should ask other brothers or sisters. How could his second senior sister be willing to do such trivial things?
But before he finished speaking, he heard Su Yu take a deep breath.
"What? Whom are you saying that the golden pill is broken?"
Lu Yizhou immediately patted his forehead in annoyance. "Second Senior Sister has been behind closed doors for the past few days, so you don't know yet. Third Senior Brother was in a secret realm the day before yesterday and felt that he was about to break through, so he tried to condense a golden core. Who would have thought that his old injury on his meridians would recur in the middle, and there were cracks in his golden core? He vomited blood and just woke up this morning."
Su Yu thought that as long as she opened her eyes quickly, the novel's plot would not catch up with her.
However, the plot shot like a rocket ride.
[Third Junior Brother's meridians were damaged five years ago, so this year he cannot condense a golden core... After Senior Brother leaves, he is the one with the highest cultivation level at the peak. You can find him if you need anything.]
Su Yu took a deep breath. "Then, how is he now?"
Lu Yizhou's expression looked ugly, and he shook his head slowly. "He can only rest in bed, unless he can get an elixir that nourishes the golden core. But an elixir to repair the golden core has no market price. It is hard to find even if we have one hundred thousand spirit stones."
When Su Yu awoke at Zhiqiong Peak, the whole peak only had eight thousand spirit stones left.
Su Yu's sight was suddenly dark.
'Well, it's fine.'
'There is nothing that Master Su cannot solve by cooking a meal.'
'Calm down.'
Now she can only think of a way to treat and look after her third junior brother. Next is her fourth junior brother, who has inner demons. He is a cultivator in the middle stage of Foundation Building who uses the spiritual sound of the qin as a way to attack.
"Fourth Junior Brother."
Su Yu called and immediately looked at this young man with gleaming eyes, fearing that he would be gone in the next moment.
Lu Yizhou was stunned by her bright eyes.
"If you don't understand what the teacher said in class today, don't worry."
"?"
"Come back early after school. Try your sister's culinary skills, and maybe you can understand afterward."
"?!"
After she said this, Lu Yizhou wordlessly took his guqin away in a dizzy manner. He has lived without food for so long. Why would he need his second senior sister’s cooking?
Su Yu watched the emaciated figure of the young man, who nodded and left in a panic. She was finally relieved and continued with the first task that she needed to do, which was to study the elixir used to satisfy hunger in this world.
She went to a small room in the courtyard that is not used much on the Zhiqiong Peak, the kitchen.
There was only an earthen stove there, on which was a cast iron pot that was well polished, and a wooden lid hung on the wall.
On the left side of the earthen stove was a tank of clear water with a gourd skin scoop floating in it.
Although the kitchen layout and equipment were simple, Su Yu still felt touched.
But when she opened the pot's lid and saw the cooked porridge, her heart squeezed in pain.
'Not enough heat.'
In the porridge, the rice grain had not popped. She knew that the taste of each grain was uneven, and the rice aroma had not fully penetrated the soup.
Su Yu frowned, looked at it for a long time, and finally put it into a bowl with her eyes closed.
Just as she was about to bring it out of the kitchen, she stopped with pain in her heart.
'Sin.'
Since she was ten years old, she hadn't served this kind of crappy porridge.
If she did this, she would probably lose sleep tonight.
When the sun was high in the sky, Lu Yizhou sat in the qin class, looking at the sun, feeling uneasy.
He was really confused. How could he think that Second Senior Sister behaved like a normal person in the morning and he left her things to do?
Second Senior Sister used to hate Third Senior Brother the most, right?
He entered the peak a year later than her. She was only at the Qi Refining stage, and he had already condensed a golden core.
Lu Yizhou felt that maybe in the morning, he met a ghost and was possessed.
If his second senior sister didn't send food, wouldn't he harm his third senior brother? His third senior brother has been broken into pieces. He is unable to cultivate anymore and has become a mortal. Now, he even made his third senior brother suffer from starvation and his second senior sister's abuse.
As soon as Lu Yizhou thought of this, he couldn't sit still any longer. He stood up in a hurry and said, "Uncle Master, I have to go back to the mountain in a hurry."
Li Ruchang, who taught Qin art, also knew what happened recently in Zhiqiong Peak. He immediately gave his disciple a sympathetic look.
"Okay."
Before cultivating, it is necessary to support their own peak.
The eldest senior brother walked away, and the third was disabled.
There was only one senior sister who ranked second. However, not only was she shallow in cultivation, but she was also known for her eccentric temper. She could not help them in the slightest.
Hey.
Every peak had circumstances that were difficult to avoid.
"I've approved your leave for the next few days. Arrange your senior brother’s matter properly, and come to class afterward."
Lu Yizhou saluted immediately, "Thank you, Uncle Master."
The other disciples were looking at him with either sympathy or playfulness. He gritted his teeth and stood up, but he was stopped again.
Li Ruchang sighed, "I still have some Jade Pill Powder here. You can use it."
After that, he pulled out a large jade bottle in his palm.
"Although it can't repair his golden core, the Jade Pill Powder is an essence of the spiritual material that mortals can eat. Your brother can't eat a Bigu Pill now, and he can't overcome the spiritual food that is too nourishing. The Jade Pill Powder is the most suitable."
Lu Yizhou was immediately happy.
Now it is very difficult for his third senior brother to even swallow rice porridge. If there is Jade Pill Powder that can be eaten by dissolving it in water, it is the best.
"Uncle Master, are there more of these pills I can exchange in the sect?"
Li Ruchang smiled wryly, "No. The raw material of this Jade Pill Powder is a large amount of ordinary spirit valley grass, but the impurities in it have to be refined so that those who cannot cultivate can also absorb the essence of spiritual energy in it. This thing has little effect on cultivators, so alchemists don't want to spend time refining it. This is what my alchemist friend made for his daughter, who couldn't cultivate. He gave me some along the way."
Lu Yizhou was disappointed but quickly regained his spirit.
Since Uncle Master Li can get it and ordinary spirit grass is not expensive, if he becomes friends with an alchemist in the future, he can also increase the price and ask the other party to refine it for his third senior brother, right?
As he thought about it, Lu Yizhou said goodbye to his uncle master and left quickly.
At noon, in Zhiqiong Peak's small kitchen.
Su Yu was gnashing her teeth and looking at the cast iron pot where she cooked the spirit rice porridge.
It was shining brightly, and the aura flashed straight to the sky.
But in the pot, there was not a single grain of rice porridge that burst into bloom at this moment.
There was only a mound of jade white powder, glowing with a jade-like lustre!
How can this be?
Su Yu collapsed and looked at her faintly hot dantian.
She saw a large and wide iron cauldron lying on her dantian. It was shining brightly with colorful radiance.
Su Yu: "..."
God is killing her.
"Second Senior Sister, are you there? Where is Third Senior Brother's porridge?" Lu Yizhou rushed into the kitchen like a whirlwind.
Su Yu:
Porridge?
She only has powder...
Should she mix it with boiling water?
