Chapter 374: Three Thousand Years of Paths.

The next day.

The sky had brightened up.

Li Nianfan woke up later than usual. After all, he had stayed up late the previous night.

Click.

He opened the door and stretched in the direction of the sun while yawning. What a refreshing morning!

“Mr. Li, good morning.”

“Brother Nianfan, good morning.”

In the yard, Daji and the rest were busy. They all had smiles on their faces. They were in a good mood.

“Wow, you all seem happy. What’re you preparing to do?” Li Nianfan looked at them and realized that they were all busy around the kitchen.

Daji had a ball of dough in her hands as if she was making buns. Nanan and Dragin were kneading the flour by the side, adding water into the dough from time to time. They were busy but seemed very happy.

Even the Fire Phoenix felt embarrassed to do nothing. She was holding a knife while cutting the meat.

Chop! Chop! Chop!

She looked stunning dressed in red. However, she held onto the knife, cutting the meat violently. She constructed a very beautiful sight for the eyes.

Blackie and Xiao Bai had nothing to do.

Blackie laid by the rockery while sunbathing under the morning sun. He seemed lonely with a displeased look.

‘Master went away for so long without bringing me. Waa... I’m not happy.

‘Hmph! I didn’t do anything. I took the time to go to the Immortal Realm and ruled all the Dog Demons there and became their Lord. It was quite fun.’

Xiao Bai stood by the side like a sculpture.

It met Li Nianfan’s eyes and explained, as if it was wronged, “Master, listen to me. It wasn’t me who got lazy. They were the ones asking to make breakfast themselves.”

Daji smiled and said, “Mr. Li, although the food you make is delicious, we can’t just eat and do nothing. We’ll work hard to make you a meal.”

A plump bun appeared in her hand. She said, “Mr. Li, how’s my bun?”

Li Nianfan laughed. “Ha-ha-ha, delicious, it’ll be delicious!”

He felt pleased. Perhaps this was the feeling of home.

Nanan said instantly, “Brother, the dough’s made by Sister Dragin and I.”

Her face and nose were covered in flour, looking adorable and joyful. Both of her hands were coated with sticky flour that had stuck all over her sleeves.

Dragin looked similar. The two kids were mostly playing instead of making the dough.

Li Nianfan looked away and saw the meat under the Fire Phoenix’s knife. He could not help raising an eyebrow. “This...this is...dragon meat?”

“Hmm!”

“Actually...cutting it too hard would affect the texture of the meat,” Li Nianfan suggested.

He felt that the Fire Phoenix was seeking revenge. Being an old dragon was not easy. ‘He’s already dead and yet you’re chopping his dead body like that? How inhuman!’

“I’m getting revenge!” Fire Phoenix emphasized the words.

Li Nianfan did not try to talk her out of it. He looked around and said, “Xiao Bai, you go and prepare the hairy crab. Pick out the yellow stuff to make crab buns.”

Xiao Bai nodded instantly. “Okay, my master.”

Li Nianfan said, “Dragin, you can only eat the crab bun.”

“Oh, okay, brother.” Dragin nodded understandingly.

After all, dragon meat was similar to hers. Although in the cultivational realm it was normal to eat your own species, for the demons, eating your own species would increase your power. However, Li Nianfan wanted to avoid this from happening.

Li Nianfan smiled and said, “Don’t worry, the crab bun’s definitely more delicious than the dragon meat.”

“Really?” Dragin’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

Li Nianfan nodded, “Really!”

Meanwhile, Daji was excited. “Mr. Li, the first batch of buns are ready.”

“Argh, have a look, I want to eat it!” Nanan and Dragon were excited. Even the Fire Phoenix who was cutting the meat had to stop her movements. She looked at the steamer with eyes filled with excitement.

“Open the lid!”

Daji opened the steamer. The crowd frowned and halted. They looked bitter.

They saw that in the steamer, those buns were no longer buns. They had exploded. Some lucky buns had only exploded halfway and were still edible. Those unlucky ones had juices coming out and were completely open. They were no longer in shape.

Daji pursed her lips. She almost wanted to cry. She said sadly, “How could it be? They looked fine when I put them in just now.”

Daji looked like she was cooking for the first time. The bigger the expectation, the bigger the disappointment.

Furthermore, Daji really wanted to impress Li Nianfan. She was working on becoming a good wife. She even organized this group to make breakfast. She could not accept what just happened.

“That’s because the dough for noodles and buns are different.”

Li Nianfan smiled and touched Daji’s nose. “There’s nothing to feel bad about. It’s actually quite hard to make buns. Since it’s your first time, it’s already quite impressive to have made these.”

As he spoke, he reached out to take out an almost-perfect-looking bun from the steamer. After blowing on it, he bit into it.

To be honest, the texture of the bun was not good. It was not bouncy and it was rather dense. The shape was strange as well.

If he was not careful, the juice would ooze out.

“Hmm, yummy!” Li Nianfan was nodding as he ate. Soon, he finished the bun.

Luckily, they did not put any condiments. Thus, the taste was not too strange. The original taste of the dragon meat and the flour had a good foundation, so it was not as bad.

Daji looked better but did not seem too pleased. She felt embarrassed and looked down on herself.

Li Nianfan waved, “Alright, nothing’s learned without a teacher. Let me teach you all.”

He walked to Dragon and Nanan and kneaded the flour. He shook his head and said, “Kneading is different. You need to add water to the flour accordingly. Also, during the kneading of the flour, pressure’s not the main thing. Gentleness needs to be considered, too.”

He spoke as he demonstrated it to them, his movements slow.

The crowd looked at his actions and did not find it hard. They felt like they were having a vision when watching. However, when they tried to recall what they saw, they would realize that they had forgotten the previous movement.

Path Scar!

There were three thousand years of paths. Everything had its own path.

The expert’s cooking was in its own path!

No wonder the expert’s food was way beyond the standards of delicious food. By using Spiritual Roots as vegetables and using ordinary materials to cook, even an ordinary man would live longer or even become a cultivator after eating his cooking.

Furthermore, there were three thousand years of paths!

Just by watching him, it was very beneficial to the crowd!

As the saying went, ‘it was not to be said but felt’.

Everyone was clever. They stopped watching Li Nianfan’s movements and emptied their minds to feel it.

Around Li Nianfan’s body, there was a gentle and soft light. Meanwhile, the crowd was affected. They felt as if they were sitting in a rocket shooting upward.

Nanan’s cultivation was the lowest. She felt the deepest, her small face was blushing in red.

She was only in the Combination realm. If she was an ordinary cultivator, she would not have been able to hold up this terrifying Insight and would have to take a few steps backward.

However, she was different. She had the Power of Devour to enlarge her limit a few times bigger!

“This isn’t so bad!”

Li Nianfan smiled. He gently pulled the dough in front of the people.

Instantly, with everyone watching, he pulled out a long string and used force to toss it in the air. The string was tossed up and pulled back again. As if being hit by the string, the crowd’s worldview had changed completely.

Li Nianfan had a nostalgic look in his eyes. He could not help sighing as he said, “Back then, to learn this, I had to stay up for three days and nights. I had to drag the string so long for three rounds to pass. It’s painful to...be a chef!”

Li Nianfan shook his head. He then tossed it in the air and smiled. “Nanan, go and catch it!”

“Alright, Brother Nianfan!”

Nanan instantly caught the other end of the string.

The bouncy string had a nice texture. She felt a deep and gentle energy going into her body. Between Li Nianfan and Nanan was a long string of flour bouncing energetically.

Every time it jumped, it let out an unlimited glow surrounding the crowd.

Even with Nanan’s Power of Devour, she was unable to digest these deep and thick Insights.

This was because it was too much and too deep!

It was like a child drinking a river’s worth of water.

“Hmm,” Nanan moaned. She was unable to control her restlessness, as if something was about to spurt out.

As if...she was about to have a Cross Tribulation!
