Chapter 338: The Confidence Brought by the Invincible Core

“Who?”

“The Nine Nether Sect. Don’t you know them?” Lu Yang was a bit surprised, not understanding why the upper management of the Undying Sect was so shocked.

Considering that they were already selling barbecue skewers, wasn’t it perfectly normal for the Nine Nether Sect to be opening chain stores outside? Even someone at the Unity Stage was reacting so strongly—clearly, their mental cultivation wasn’t fully mature yet.

In contrast, Senior Brother Dai Bufan handled the news of the Nine Nether Sect preparing to open chain stores with remarkable calm.

“The Nine Nether Sect asked me if I had any money-making opportunities. I told them there was a barbecue project here that was guaranteed to be profitable and asked if they were interested. They said yes.” Lu Yang briefly explained how things had transpired.

The Sect Leader and the others thought they must have misheard—was the Nine Nether Sect really responsible for expanding barbecue restaurants? That didn’t sound like something the Nine Nether Sect would do.

Even though Lu Yang made the process sound simple, the Sect Leader and the others weren’t fools—they believed Lu Yang had left out many details.

But no matter how much was omitted, the idea of the Nine Nether Sect helping the Dao Seeking Sect expand a chain of barbecue restaurants seemed odd.

It must be that Lu Yang had used some clever lie to deceive the Nine Nether Sect.

But even that didn’t make sense, as Petrified Bone from the Nine Nether Sect had a secret technique to detect lies—no one could lie in his presence.

They couldn’t figure it out.

Well, no point in dwelling on it. They were all Specters now, with no great ambitions left. As long as the barbecue business thrived, that was enough.

If the Nine Nether Sect was willing to help with the barbecue business, it was a good thing. The more people involved, the better.

“When we partnered with the Nine Nether Sect, we provided them with two extremely important technical supports. As the first branch of Come Again Barbecue, you are also entitled to receive them.”

As the upper management of the Undying Sect watched expectantly, Lu Yang took out something that resembled a bookshelf from his identity token.

“This is an automatic barbecue grill. Place the skewers on it, and it will automatically grill them.”

Master Liu and Master Gao were unimpressed, feeling that this device was challenging their status. “Boss Lu, with all due respect, using this grill produces food without a soul. We don’t need something like that.”

Lu Yang thought about it and realized they had a point. Master Liu and Master Gao were both in the late stages of the Unity Stage, and their grilling skills were definitely superior to this tool.

More importantly, if the automatic grill replaced them, they would be out of a job.

“And this,” Lu Yang continued, pulling out a small jade bottle. When he opened the bottle, a flickering flame hovered in the air, looking mysterious and awe-inspiring.

The upper management of the Undying Sect didn’t react much, but the three female ghosts, Little Seven and her companions, felt a deep, instinctual fear.

The flame contained the Pure Yang True Fire of a Single Golden Core cultivator, which naturally suppressed ghosts.

Lu Yang smiled and explained, “This is a product of combining Three Flavours True Fire with Pure Yang True Fire. The Three Flavours True Fire has miraculous effects on barbecuing, providing three distinct flavors. This Pure Yang True Fire, unlike the usual Pure Yang True Fire you’re familiar with, has the added effect of enhancing virility.”

“Is there really something so miraculous in this world?” Not only the Sect Leader but even the Everlasting Celestial showed a somewhat surprised expression.

The Everlasting Celestial had access to the memories of all the followers of the Undying Sect, yet even he had never heard of Three Flavours True Fire or Pure Yang True Fire that could enhance virility.

“This Pure Yang True Fire was discovered by a close friend of mine in his pursuit of the ultimate power. I greatly admire his dedication,” Lu Yang explained.

The Sect Leader pondered for a moment. “Pure Yang True Fire is indeed good, but I don’t see much use for it in our Dao Seeking Sect.”

After all, the cultivation levels in the Dao Seeking Sect were generally high, and they didn’t need help with virility. Besides, the sect had no shortage of medicinal herbs for that purpose. Even Lu Yang knew that Ginseng Child’s ginseng was considered a supreme virility tonic.

Lu Yang realized the point and put away the Three Flavours Pure Yang True Fire seed, flipping his hand to release the Three Flavours True Fire.

“This is the seed of the Three Flavours True Fire. You can give it a try and see if it has any special effects on barbecuing.”

Master Liu, somewhat skeptical, accepted the fire seed and replaced the coal. He then took ten skewers of tofu skin from the side and began grilling.

As the tofu skin cooked, under Master Liu’s skillful flipping, its flavors began to develop.

“Everyone, have a taste.”

The tofu skin was grilled to perfection, and everyone took a skewer. Master Liu took a bite of his own creation and suddenly widened his eyes.

He had grilled simple tofu skin countless times and knew its taste inside out, but he was surprised to find that, after being infused with the Three Flavours True Fire, the tofu skin now had a complex flavor profile, starting sweet and ending with a spicy kick.

The taste of the grilled tofu skin had been elevated to a whole new level!

This wasn’t just a matter of technique—this was something truly extraordinary!

No wonder Qin Yanyan had been dissatisfied with their skewers—the reason was right here.

Despite months of meticulous research into barbecuing, they had not achieved the depth of flavor that a Golden Core Stage cultivator had managed to create.

After this, they would need to enter seclusion and strive to gain new insights into the art of grilling!

“You can keep this fire seed,” Lu Yang said.

Master Liu and Master Gao received it as if they were holding a treasure.

“And niece, did you tell anyone when you left Hundred Refinements Peak?”

“I don’t think I did.”

“Then you’d better go back now. If the Fifth Elder and Junior Brother Li return to Hundred Refinements Peak and find you’re not there…”

“Will they be worried?”

“They’ll forget you even exist.”

“…”

“I’ll go back right now.”

Lu Yang stretched lazily, feeling like he had done a good deed.

In truth, the Fifth Elder and Li Haoran wouldn’t forget Qin Yanyan if she disappeared. Quite the opposite, they would probably search everywhere for her.

But saying that might sound too sentimental, so he decided against it.

He slowly made his way toward the library.

“What are you going to the library for?” In the mental space, Everlasting Fairy lay lazily on a bed, her legs straight up in the air, wiggling her toes. Then, with a slight shift, she flopped down onto the bed.

“I can teach you whatever you don’t know,” she offered.

“I’m working on extending a cultivation method. My technique, Enlightenment of Heart and Nature, was self-created. But back then, my knowledge was limited, so I only wrote it up to the Foundation Building Stage. Now that I’ve reached the Golden Core Stage, the technique can’t keep up, so I’m going to the library to find some inspiration for how to continue my cultivation.”

“You’re young, and you can already create cultivation methods?” Everlasting Fairy was shocked. Even getting to the Foundation Building Stage was impressive.

“Not really. After I wrote it, Eldest Senior Sister revised some parts of it for me.”

Everlasting Fairy quietly sighed in relief. “I knew it. When I was at the Foundation Building Stage, I couldn’t have written a cultivation method myself. How much did Yun Zhi revise?”

Lu Yang hesitated before deciding to tell the truth.

“She only kept the name of the technique.”

Everlasting Fairy: “…”

“Then you might as well let Yun Zhi continue writing the method for you.”

“A person needs to be independent. I can’t rely on Eldest Senior Sister for everything. Who knows, maybe this time the technique I write myself will get her approval?” Lu Yang was full of confidence.

Everlasting Fairy remained silent, thinking that Lu Yang’s confidence likely came from his Invincible Core.

It was probably best not to disagree with him.
