Chapter 281: The Fairy’s Kitchen

Translator: yikaii Editor: yikaii

Lu Yang couldn’t help but recall the immortal treasures possessed by the Undying Sect:

The Yellow Millet Pillow.

A toothpick.

Poisoned chopsticks.

Aged vinegar.

A bedsheet.

A plate.

It indeed seemed like someone had wandered into a kitchen and randomly taken some items.

The power of these items was undeniable, worthy of being called immortal treasures, but their origins were peculiar.

“As a chef, the thing I dislike most is people entering my kitchen and disturbing my cooking. You can understand that feeling, right?” Everlasting Fairy asked Lu Yang. Since Lu Yang was a barbecue chef, she considered him a peer and assumed he would share the same sentiments.

Lu Yang wanted to say, “Where would I have a kitchen, being a roadside barbecue vendor?” But considering the unpredictable consequences of not agreeing with the Everlasting Fairy, he reluctantly nodded and said, “Yes.”

The Everlasting Fairy was pleased to find someone who could empathize with her. She then sighed, “I didn’t expect that even after I closed the door, someone would still break in. That shouldn’t have been possible.”

“Is there anyone else besides you who can open this door?” Lu Yang suspected that the mastermind had secretly opened the door, allowing the first Sect Leader to take a few treasures as the Undying Sect’s foundational treasures.

“Ying Tian Immortal and the other three can do it. I was afraid they’d be too impatient to wait for my cooking, so I told them how to open the door.”

“But they were too polite and never came in.”

Yun Zhi shook her head secretly. The seal set by the Everlasting Fairy wasn’t hard to break. Any immortal, given enough time, could figure out how to open it.

How strong could a kitchen seal be?

The Everlasting Fairy did nothing but stand before the door. The mysterious symbols automatically dissipated, the door opened, revealing the true immortal relic—the Fairy’s kitchen.

This should be the first immortal relic ever opened in history, making it highly significant.

The Fairy truly lived up to her title as the sole immortal chef; her kitchen was clean and bright, without any stains, likely due to a dust-removal formation.

Once inside, the door closed, cutting off the light source, and the Everlasting light illuminated the kitchen.

“So quiet, it feels completely isolated from the outside world.”

“Hehe, that’s thanks to the soundproofing formation I set up. When I handle ingredients, they always make noise, which would disturb the guests. So I set up soundproofing and spirit-severing formations, preventing the outside world from detecting what’s going on inside.”

Lu Yang had a strange expression; it sounded like a room meant for silencing people.

“Don’t touch anything in the kitchen. It’s dangerous for you,” Yun Zhi warned Lu Yang, knowing he was curious and reminding him to be cautious.

Hearing this, Lu Yang quickly retracted his hand.

These were items used by immortals. The residual energy from even a single item could shatter Lu Yang to pieces.

While Yun Zhi could certainly save him, it wasn’t an experience worth having.

The Everlasting Fairy dismissed the concern with a confident demeanor: “Oh, don’t worry. With this Fairy protecting Lu Yang, what could possibly go wrong?”

Upon hearing this, Lu Yang’s restless heart settled down.

“By the way, Fairy, why do you have a Yellow Millet Pillow and a bedsheet in your kitchen?” Lu Yang remembered the two immortal treasures of the Undying Sect, which shouldn’t logically be in a kitchen.

The Everlasting Fairy replied matter-of-factly, “That’s normal. I like cooking and sleeping. After waking up, I’d study how to cook. When I got tired, I’d lie down to sleep. With this positive cycle, both my culinary skills and sleeping ability improved rapidly.”

As she spoke, the Everlasting Fairy gestured, mimicking a flying motion.

“Nonuple Immortal advised me not to spend all my time in the kitchen working so hard, saying that there’s no end to culinary skills and that I should get out more.”

“Although outsiders might think I’m overworking, I actually find it quite relaxing.”

“…Is it possible that Nonuple Immortal wasn’t concerned about you being tired? Maybe he just didn’t want you to continue honing your culinary skills.”

Everlasting Fairy was taken aback, “Why? I always let them be the first to taste my new dishes.”

Yun Zhi noticed a pile of bottles and jars in the corner of the kitchen. She casually lifted the lid off one, and a pungent aroma hit her so hard that she nearly thought she was under attack and instinctively struck out with her palm.

“Senior, what is this?” Yun Zhi asked, pointing to the red liquid in the jade bottle.

“Chili oil. Haven’t you seen it before? I remember the Dao Seeking Sect has hot pot?”

Yun Zhi was silent. She certainly knew chili oil, but this was the first time she had encountered chili oil so potent that it almost made her attack.

It was an eye-opening experience.

Lu Yang was even more shocked. What kind of chili oil could last 300,000 years?

“This chili oil was made using countless heavenly materials and treasures, absorbing the essence of the sun, moon, and stars.”

Everlasting Fairy tapped the bottle, “Look at this bottle. I had several master refiners craft it to store this chili oil.”

“Now, about this chili oil. It may look ordinary and similar to regular chili oil, but just a few drops can elevate a dish to a whole new level.”

“Additionally, this chili oil has the ability to discern lies. I didn’t realize this during the refining process; it must have been a happy accident.”

“How so?”

“Qilin Immortal loves spicy food. After learning this, I invited him over and added a few drops of this chili oil to his food. I didn’t put any in Ying Tian Immortal’s food.”

“After a few bites, Qilin Immortal started waving his hand, saying he didn’t actually like spicy food and asked me to make another dish.”

“Let me tell you, my culinary skills are widely acclaimed. Even before I became an immortal, I was very popular. For instance, Nonuple Immortal repeatedly asked me to cook for him.”

Lu Yang was astounded, thinking that Nonuple Immortal must indeed be courageous to have the guts to eat her food multiple times, which surpassed even Ying Tian Immortal’s bravery.

“Is that really true?”

“Of course! The first time I cooked for Nonuple Immortal, he was amazed and thought I had great potential.”

Everlasting Fairy spoke with great enthusiasm. Originally, she wasn’t very confident in her culinary skills, but this incident gave her immense confidence, allowing her to progress further on the path of celestial cooking, reaching unprecedented heights. Ancient and modern spiritual chefs all admired her.

It’s a pity she died early; otherwise, she would have become the ancestor of spiritual chefs, worshipped and revered.

At celestial gatherings, she often brought up this story, especially thanking Nonuple Immortal for his support. Other immortals, upon hearing this, would smile kindly at Nonuple Immortal.

Lu Yang had a strange expression, “Did Nonuple Immortal really say that?”

Everlasting Fairy put her hands on her hips, pouted, and furrowed her brows, displeased with Lu Yang’s doubt.

“When have I ever lied to you?”

“A few days later, he came to me again, asking me to cook for him once more to take away. I asked why he wanted to take it away, but he avoided the question, saying something about ‘the prisoner is stubborn, no amount of torture works, so we need to use unconventional methods.’”
