Chapter 29: Fried Pork Liver
Yu Dong was sluggish.
"How are you? How are you?"
Yu Dong roused and looked at Su Yu, who took a step toward him with a very concerned expression.
'No more pain...'if you are reading this on a site other than puretl(.)com then this chapter has been stolen
Earlier, when he was attacked by Xu Meng's sword wind, he blocked it with his right hand. His entire arm felt like it had been hit by a heavy mountain.
Although he concentrated his spiritual energy to his right arm in time and did not break his arm bone, the entire right arm from his shoulder to his elbow was in severe pain.
It was unbearable.
When he was knocked off the ring, he could no longer lift his right arm. The sword wind broke through his body from under the skin. His skin was torn in an instant and the wound continued to expand.
Due to his fourth and sixth brothers falling into a coma one after another, Yu Dong endured his injury and didn't say anything. He didn't want to worry his fellow brothers and sisters.
However, at this moment, he felt ...
Let alone a cut, he couldn't even feel any pain in his right shoulder!
He looked at Su Yu in astonishment and Su Yu was also looking at him.
"How? Should we ask the other judging elders of the Competition Tower to see to your injury?" Su Yu took two steps forward. She saw the blood that had just spurted from his shoulder and frowned tightly.
Yu Dong opened his mouth, "No—"
By the time... the elder was here, most likely, his wounds would be completely healed!
As he spoke, he felt an itch on his shoulders.
Su Yu looked solemn. "Lie down first to reduce blood flow."
'Is it an accident? Is he all right?'
She saw the blood that spewed out earlier.
This was a major food accident in the catering industry. It looked quite serious and she must be responsible for it.
Su Yu carefully pressed him to the ground. "Don't be afraid. No matter how many spirit stones we need to spend. I will cure you. During this period of time, all your injuries and medical costs, as well as the loss of your delayed cultivation, I will be responsible to the end."
Yu Dong was stunned. His sea of consciousness fluctuated.
'Responsible for my injury...'
If something really happened to him, his second senior sister would take care of him like this?
Yu Dong looked at Su Yu's nervous but bright eyes like stars and couldn't help but feel lost.
After all, as long as the pills were taken fast enough, the wound would recover!
Yu Dong was shocked.
Su Yu frowned and shook her hand in front of his absent-minded eyes. "Can you hear me, eh? How do you feel now?"
Yu Dong: "I feel... good."
Su Yu: "?"
Yu Dong lowered his head and pulled the shirt off his right shoulder.
Others immediately probed and Su Yu also looked at him with concern.
As a result, they saw that there was a wound on his shoulder, but it was shrinking!
Visible to the naked eye, the wound changed from about the width of a thumb to the size of a whisker, then to the size of a pin's eye... and then disappeared.
Everyone: "!"
Su Yu: ...
"You just spewed out blood..." Hang Wan'er suddenly realized. "Is it the Qi and Blood Pill that makes Fifth Senior Brother stronger and the contaminated blood spurt out all at once?"
Wei Zhao also understood in an instant and his face was full of joy. "Extra qi and blood spurted out and happened to discharge Xu Meng's sword intent so that the wound quickly recovered. Second Senior Sister's pill is better than any second-grade Blood Fusion Pill from the sect's exchange office."
All the disciples opened their mouths in amazement and looked at Su Yu in reverence.
"..."
Su Yu coughed lightly, raised her chin slightly and stood with her hands behind her back.
'The kitchen accident was eliminated.'
Nonetheless, she had to pay more attention to avoid the next real accident. "It looks very dangerous. Don't give it to Yan Yan."
Su Yu looked at Yan Yan, whose eyes were still closed and helped him to the soft seat.
"It's all right. I'll try it for Sixth Junior Brother!" Yu Dong's heart surged.
He thought of the clear, mirror-like soup, the delicious and warm taste, and couldn't help but lower his head and took another quick sip.
Su Yu didn't have time to stop him.
Just after a sip, puff—
Yu Dong spurted out a nosebleed and smiled strangely. "It's okay. Even though this pill expels excessive qi and blood, it won't damage the foundation. Sixth Junior Brother can take it."
Su Yu: "..."
'As long as you are happy.'
Soon Yu Dong held the jasper bowl, helped Yan Yan up and forced the soup to his mouth to feed him.
Not long after that, Yan Yan's pale lips became rosy and his wound stopped bleeding.
"I..."
Yan Yan opened his eyes quickly and felt a fresh fragrance in his mouth. Just as he was about to speak, he felt like a trickle of energy pouring into his mouth.
In an instant, he felt that his whole body was full of vigor and his dantian trembled. It was hot to the point of roaring fire.
His complexion changed drastically. He adjusted his breath, embraced his soul and tried his best to suppress the swelling of his blood.
"Second Senior Sister's elixir is really powerful. Sixth Senior Brother seems to be fine!"
"Sixth Junior Brother, it's fine. Don't restrain yourself. Just let the nosebleeds flow. This is natural."
Yan Yan: "..."
Fortunately, he adjusted his breath quickly. At this time, his mind was quiet and the surrounding sounds gradually disappeared. Otherwise, he wanted to escape with his flying sword to avoid the embarrassment.
"Okay, put away the tableware."
Su Yu, who stood with her hands behind her back, could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"This soup... elixir, if you don't need it, the remaining one should be sealed with a dust-proof array." Su Yu warned. She produced two pills of black-boned chicken soup, but they only used one.
Originally, she didn't like overnight dishes.
However, in this world of immortal cultivation, all dishes were made from the spiritual materials of heavenly and earthly treasures. As long as they were properly preserved with a few thermal insulation and dust-proof arrays, they would not deteriorate.
Su Yu put away the encyclopaedia of beasts, glanced at the wok that Hang Wan'er had scrubbed and put it into her bag with satisfaction.
Yu Dong took a deep look at her worriedly. Immediately, she attached three layers of arrays to the rest of the red-colored pill!
After confirming that even half of the aura won't be released, he was relieved.
The other two jade bowls were still with him.
Before they could take it, most of his and Sixth Junior Brother's wounds had healed.
"These elixirs, Second Senior Sister, please keep it." Yu Dong did not dare to keep it for himself.
Just as he was about to return them to her, he heard a piercing flying sword sound!
"Is Yan Yan here?"if you are reading this on a site other than puretl(.)com then this chapter has been stolen
A straight and tall figure wearing a robe and riding a flying sword stood over the railing of the third floor of the Competition Tower.
Every line on this person's face seemed to have been measured. The length of each spacing was indescribably suitable and perfect, which made Su Yu, who had a high aesthetic level, felt that this person's face was too symmetrical. She really wanted to give him some finishing touch.
Wei Zhao hurriedly said, "Dare to ask who is Your Excellency?"
The man immediately tapped his toes on the sword, floated inside the tower and took three steps forward.
"This one is Xi Quan. I am a disciple of the elder who is the Heart Interrogation Sword Formation third layer guardian in Wanjian Mountain. I am ranked third. I am here to deliver medicine by my Master's order."
Su Yu couldn't help twitching the corners of her brows. She felt that this person must have an obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Wei Zhao was stunned. "You're here to send medicine to my junior brother?"
Wanjian Mountain had never been involved in any inner sect fights.
Eight elders of the Wanjian Mountain never interfere with trivial matters outside their mountain. Even their disciples rarely came out to walk around.
"Is the elder a friend of my master, Taoist Mu?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Xi Quan shaking his head. "I don't know."
Wei Zhao: "..."
"I'm afraid my Master heard that Yan Yan was injured by Xu Meng's sword, so he asked me to deliver the medicine, but he didn't say anything else." Xi Quan glanced in the tower and saw Yan Yan adjusting his breath with his knees crossed. He was relieved.
He immediately threw out a jade bottle. "Second-grade Blood Fusion Pills. Just take three pills."
Everyone from Zhiqiong Peak was stunned.
Second-grade pill. A bottle would cost at least five thousand spirit stones.
Why was an elder of the Heart Interrogation Sword Formation so generous to Yan Yan?
Wei Zhao didn't know how to answer for a while, so he looked at Su Yu.
Su Yu put down the teacup in her hand and nodded at him.
When a chef's talent gradually shone, it would always get the attention and support from the outside world.
This was a good thing.
This indicated that there was no waste in her kitchen.
"Thank you, Elder, for your trouble."
Su Yu nodded and looked at Yu Dong.
"Fifth Junior Brother, you give the other black-boned... pill in the bowl to this brother Xi Quan, so he could bring it back to his master as a return gift."
'Black-boned?'
'Where?'
Was it the mirror-like soup he took just now? But the outer layer of the elixir was as white as snow.
Yu Dong felt strange and looked puzzled. However, he handed out a jade bowl in his hand to Xi Quan.
"Senior Brother Xi, you can poke a hole and sip it. Inhale carefully. Otherwise, it will burn your mouth."
Xi Quan: "???"
He was stunned.
He could understand every word separately, but together, it sounded like a book from heaven.
Poke a hole and sip carefully. What did these words have anything to do with taking elixirs?
However, he didn't ask further. He only went outside Wanjian Mountain for three sticks of incense every day. Otherwise, it would be a huge waste of time and useless for his swordsmanship.
He must rush back now.
When he took the jasper bowl from Yu Dong's hand, Xi Quan was startled.
'Is this an elixir?'
He couldn't help frowning and said one more sentence, "Xu Meng's heavy mountain sword will condense sword energy in the wound it causes. Taking ordinary healing medicine is useless. It will only aggravate the injury."
Everyone from Zhiqiong Peak looked strange. Earlier, Wei Zhao also said that Second Senior Sister's elixir was better than a Blood Fusion Pill.
After Xi Quan finished speaking, he looked up at the sun outside the tower. "I've been away from the mountain for two sticks of incense. Farewell."
Before he finished speaking, he was already flying like a rainbow and disappeared on the spot. His speed was amazing.
Qian Qingqiu sighed, "I have heard that Wanjian Mountain is strong. Today, I can see that it is true. Xi Quan only ranked third, but he is at the peak of the golden core. His first-ranked senior sister has entered the Nascent Soul level. Plus, they have eight elders at the peak of Nascent Soul. Their strength will not be lost to any of the main peaks."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Su Yu and the others. "Junior Sister Su, congratulations on defending the third-class rank."
"Next in the Grand Competition is the third-class peaks challenge. The Precept Hall will issue different challenges every year. Once you enter the top three, you can challenge the second-class peaks. You can take a good rest, and if you need to, come anytime to our Yuqiong Peak to recuperate. I will take my brothers and sisters to say goodbye first."
Qian Qingqiu, as the chief disciple, was also busy with his peak's affairs, so he hurriedly took his people away.
Su Yu nodded and then looked at everyone. "Let's go. Bring the wounded and sick back to the peak!"
The disciples of Zhiqiong Peak cheered.
"We kept our rank!"
"Eldest Senior Brother will be shocked when he comes back!"
"It is all thanks to the strength of Second Senior Sister."
Earlier, they were frightened by Yan Yan's injury, but now everything was fine. They immediately became excited.
Su Yu cheekily pressed her hands. "Small things. Don't make too much noise."
Everyone's reverence became even more intense.
After she took a step forward, she heard Wei Zhao speak, "Second Senior Sister, the elders have made tricky challenges over the years for the next third-class peaks challenge. It's all related to the realm of cultivation. Taking advantage of the fact that a few junior brothers and sisters have just gone through a few battles, it's time to re-examine our own strengths. Why don't we go to the Meditation Hall these next few days and use up the chance that we haven't used this year?"
Su Yu paused. Earlier, the elder in the red robe also mentioned it.
Wei Zhao smiled wryly. Second Senior Sister had not practiced for too long. Lately, her breakthrough was as easy as drinking water.
She probably forgot.
"A cultivator's breakthrough requires spiritual qi and sea of knowledge cultivation, both of which go hand-in-hand. For example, Sixth Junior Brother took elixirs to forcibly improve his cultivation this time. He has more spiritual energy but insufficient spiritual consciousness or sense, so his realm is unstable."
"Not only him but other junior brothers and sisters also took the Eight Treasures Mushroom Soup refined by Second Senior Sister many times. It accelerated spiritual energy absorption, but their sea of knowledge improvement was not enough."
"There is a formation in the meditation hall, which restricts the use of the disciples' spiritual energy. Cultivators can only use their spiritual sense to fight against the monsters and phantoms in the room, so that they can hone their sea of knowledge."
Wei Zhao explained.
"Every third-class peak has fifteen days of enlightenment time every year. However, our Zhiqiong Peak has not yet used ours this year."
Su Yu nodded.
The ability to improve her kitchen talents was the top priority.
"What are you waiting for? Let's go now."
Rest? Nonexistent.
These were all the people who should shoulder her great cause!
Her kitchen needed them to inherit!
"Since it's useful for Yan Yan, then wake him up. By the way, Yu Dong also needs to sharpen his knowledge. Let's bring him with us."
Hang Wan'er's eyes were shining. She immediately used her Five Immortal Ropes to roll up Yan Yan.
'Zhiqiong Peak's female cultivators are standing up!'
'This time, Zhiqiong Peak's female cultivator will bring the male cultivators to stand up together!'
"I'll lead the way to the Meditation Hall." Hang Wan'er's red silk ribbons took the lead and rushed in front.
Su Yu was satisfied. "Positive attitude, plus 500 contribution points."
Wei Zhao: ...
Yu Dong: ...
The rest of the disciples immediately turned red. They quickly followed Hang Wan'er lest they fell behind.
Yu Dong hurriedly handed over two small bowls of elixirs that he had not had the time to try to Wei Zhao.
"Third Senior Brother, please keep these."
However, as soon as he said this, his body trembled.
"Oh no, I lost my mind and gave the wrong elixir!"
"Go and tell Second Senior Sister. The medicine we gave to Wanjian Mountain was wrong."

"Do you know that the Qi Refining female cultivator at Zhiqiong Peak refines alchemy?"
"Huh?"
"She also used a wok—"
"? Are you daydreaming?"
"Will I lie to you!"
Xi Quan flew with his sword and gradually frowned upon hearing the comments from many disciples along the way.
He looked at the strange jade bowl in his hand.
'Sure enough.'
'Is this an attempt at alchemy by a Qi Refining disciple?'
He shook his head.
Soon, he arrived at Wanjian Mountain and entered a simple courtyard.
He stood outside the door respectfully.
"Master, I handed the Blood Fusion Pills to Yan Yan's senior brother. I saw that Yan Yan's qi and blood are okay. His condition is not critical, and he can regulate his breath normally."
"Zhiqiong Peak asked me to bring back this elixir as a gift to Master."
---
"Wrong?"
Su Yu, who stood on the flying red silk ribbon with her hands behind her back, was watching the scenery. She looked at Yu Dong in surprise.
Yu Dong smiled wryly, "It's my fault."
He was shocked by the magical blood coagulation effect just now and mistaken the three bowls of elixirs.
Su Yu pondered, "Then, what was wrongly given? Was it the four spirits fried liver?"
Yu Dong: ...
'Four Spirits Liver. This name is amazing.'
[T/N: There is no such thing in real life. It's just stir-fried liver. Su Yu might be referring to the ingredients, which are livers of four different spirit animals.]
Different spiritual herbs had different effects and values.
"I'll go to Wanjian Mountain now to stop Senior Brother Xi Quan. I will exchange the elixir with him."
Su Yu hesitated for a moment. 'Is it okay to try to get it back after serving?'
But she nodded.
After all, it was a product that had not been tested internally. It was really irresponsible to serve it to diners.
"You explain it to the other party. If necessary, give the other party a plate of Spring Plum elixir."
The focus of stir-frying liver was the cut and the heat.
However, it was very rich.
Master Su was confident in the taste, but she was afraid of the effects.
The elder of Wanjian Mountain should be quite old.
"You go quickly." Su Yu thought about it and felt uneasy.
Yu Dong nodded immediately. His Qiankun Ruler flew three feet away in one breath, hurrying at full speed.
Su Yu and the rest continued to slowly descend towards the meditation hall.
---
In a secluded courtyard in Wanjian Mountain, a white-haired old man in a white robe with black spots between his fingers, was playing a chess game with a red-robed old man on the opposite side. However, at that moment he stopped.
"Give me an elixir?"
Xi Quan answered seriously, "Yes."
"Zhiqiong Peak is also grateful. They have a good heart." The red-robed old man smiled.
If the people from Zhiqiong Peak were here, they would recognize that this red-robed old man was the judging elder who was in charge of their competition arena today.
"Their performance in the arena today was beyond my expectations." He looked at the chessboard where black and white intersected. "Although they used elixirs and spiritual tools to assist themselves, Yan Yan had a strong understanding of swordsmanship. That Lu Yizhou also has a deep understanding of qin art. They will become a great talent in time. Brother Zhang, no wonder you rushed to send the Blood Fusion Pills. Even I have a little appreciation for talent today."
Even after hearing this, Elder Zhang still looked at his third disciple with concern. "How is he now after taking the Blood Fusion pills?"
"I don't know. The three sticks of incense time finished before I saw him take it. If Master wants to know, might as well wait until tomorrow."
Elder Zhang: ...
Xi Quan turned around immediately. He placed the small bowl of elixir on the pavilion table behind the sandalwood incense burner. "Master, I'm going to practice." After saying this, he left the room.
"This unfilial—"
The old man in the red robe did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Xi Quan hasn't changed. It's still the same... Keeping all sorts of rules and regulations."
Elder Zhang was so upset when he pressed his black chess piece on the chessboard. "More stubborn than me."
"In the end, he also does this for you." The red-robed old man suddenly sighed, "I heard that he has been inquiring about the traces of an ancient secret palace. He should be looking for a way to prolong your life. Only a Nascent Soul can enter the secret palace."
Elder Zhang was lost for a moment and then hummed.
The red robed elder smiled bitterly. "You only have less than three years of lifespan now. Hasn't the head figured out a solution yet?"
Elder Zhang stared, "Ask him to think of a way? When he wanted to give a master a sixth-grade Longevity Pill, he compromised and promised to send ten of Nanxun's elite disciples to Tiansheng Academy for ten years. If I ask him to find a way for me, will we still have disciples in Nanxun for the next hundred years!"
"No need to mention this matter. If my lifespan is exhausted, it is destiny! I have guarded the formation for hundreds of years, but I have not touched the threshold of the realm of transformation. Even if I take a Longevity Pill, what is the use? It's just a few more years of respite. It's useless to the sect!"
The red robed elder was helpless.
The peak of the Nascent Soul had a lifespan of five hundred years. If you couldn't step into the spirit transformation stage, you would have to concede and wait to die.
Elder Zhang's face was not as good as other Nascent Soul elders, who looked like they were in the prime of life. Not only was he full of wrinkles, but he was also growing older and older.
The white eyebrows on his face were also scattered and half of his eyebrows were gone. The wooden hairpin on his head could only hold up a small strand of sparse white hair.
Everywhere on Elder Zhang's body had actually already withered.
Elder Hong was upset.
Noticing his gaze, Elder Zhang turned his face away uncomfortably. He reached out to stroke his beard, but two or three strands of hair fell when he touched it.
"This body... ho, it's really useless."
He smiled wryly.if you are reading this on a site other than puretl(.)com then this chapter has been stolen
"It is inevitable that I will be gone soon. You might as well think about who will take over as the guardian of the third layer of the Heart Interrogation Sword Formation."
The elder in the red robe looked sad.
After playing two more games, it was getting late. He left with a heavy face.
Elder Zhang sat in the room without lighting the lamps and stared at the chessboard in total darkness.
If there was an elixir, who wouldn't want to live? He also could exchange Nanxun's inner disciple with Tiansheng Academy for Longevity Pill, but he couldn't bear it.
What a fortunate and powerful daughter of the head of Tiansheng Academy. They just wanted to snatch their disciples in a grand manner, really shameless!
"It's not worth living. It's been five hundred years. I'm tired."
He shook off his robe and was about to put away the chess pieces when a flying sword passed and crashed into his room.
[Master, I just thought of practice, so I forgot to mention it. That elixir, the people from Zhiqiong Peak said, when taking it, you should poke a small hole on the surface, then be careful when sipping it and pay attention not to burn your mouth - Xi Quan.]
Elder Zhang: "?"
"It is unreasonable. Unfilial disciple, talk nonsense. Playing a joke on your master!"
He hadn't heard of this crazy way of taking elixir for the past five hundred years.
He threw up his sleeves.
For a second, his Nascent Soul's eyesight felt very strong. Even without lighting the lamp, he could see the small jasper bowl placed on the shelf behind the sandalwood incense burner.
Elder Zhang frowned.
He walked over immediately. "Zhiqiong Peak... can't even buy a jade bottle to keep elixirs."
When he thought of the disappearance of Taoist Mu and Xiao Muge, he shook his head helplessly.
Forget it. He would give them some spiritual stones when he passed by their peak.
'Hey...'
Elder Zhang took out a jade bottle from his spatial storage bag. He took the jasper bowl from Zhiqiong Peak with one hand and prepared to transfer the pill to the jade bottle.
He touched this bumpy golden elixir with a little scarlet light on it.
Just as he was surprised by this somewhat ugly appearance, he saw that his withered, speckled old hand seemed to have lost a bit of black dots...
---
In front of a white-walled and black-tiled hall surrounded by pine trees rested a plaque with two strong and simple characters - Meditation Hall.
A heavy feeling came over her, but Su Yu looked at the guarding disciple in front of them calmly and raised her eyebrows.
