Stepping on the demon door, the witch becomes the strongest

Chapter 400 Have a quick meal
Three things to do this month.

1. Go to Pingjing to attend the awarding ceremony.

2. Go to the location given by the old man with long eyebrows to explore.

3. Prepare to go home for the New Year.

The first thing is the most urgent, but also the least important.

During this trip to the secret realm of the East China Sea Palace, all strategic goals were successfully achieved, and military medals and honorary titles have been given to everyone, called "Dinghai Divine Soldiers".

In addition, due to Yan Yu's outstanding performance at the Fire Prison Pass and the final gate of the palace, his honorary title is different from that of others. He is called "The Divine General of the Sea"... It seems that a big shot above wants to customize a set of "Famous General Series" titles and achievements for him.

First of all, this person ruled out Chen Tianming. Old Taishan wasn't the type to do meaningless things. As for who it was, Yan Yu had no idea, and secondly, he was too lazy to find out, so he simply didn't ask Chen Lingyun specifically.

After the award, there is a cash reward.

To be honest, for the members of the Zhenhai and Longxiong teams, tens of millions in cash were nothing. In Jing Ye's words, it was just a "gift from the heart"...

We top monks are like this, tens of millions of cash are just a small token of our appreciation.

After the awarding ceremony, everyone flew away from Pingjing on their swords, and the girls were still chattering in their ears.

Zhao Yuanzhen was discussing the most delicious dishes from the state banquet. Lin Ning, unconvinced, said she could make those dishes too. Chen Lingyun then added fuel to the fire and said she wanted to start a bet: if Ning Ning could recreate the state banquet dishes, Sister Zhao would have to accept defeat.

"What is the captain thinking about?" Su Yunjin next to him suddenly asked in a voice transmission.

"I have to go to Southern Xinjiang soon." Yan Yu had nothing to hide from her. "The old man who found the treasure in the Li Palace and taught me the two-handed sword technique also left an extra divine thought to guide me there to find his Taoist legacy."

"Oh." Su Yunjin thought for a moment and said, "But, I may not be able to find it even if I go to southern Xinjiang, right?"

"If the secret realm is a reflection of another world here in our world, then even if we know of a certain immortal's treasure cave, we have to wait until the cave becomes a secret realm and its entrance appears in our real world before we can enter and explore it."

"That's right," Yan Yu said. "However, I don't plan to make a big fuss and alert the authorities. I'll just go and look for it myself first. If I find nothing, forget it."

"That's right." Su Yunjin said with a smile, "Then I can also accompany the captain..."

"Have you collected all your rootless water?" Yan Yu glanced at her.

"I can accompany the captain and collect the rootless water I need along the way." Su Yunjin remained calm.

"Forget it. It doesn't snow in southern Xinjiang all year round." Yan Yu taught her earnestly, "At your age now, you should focus more on your cultivation and not let other trivial matters waste your time and energy. Otherwise, sooner or later you will regret it."

A girl's pure first love is no trivial matter. Furthermore, if the captain were pursued by another girl, I would regret it to the bitter end, perhaps even for the rest of my life...

Thinking of the illusion level in the secret realm of the Li Palace, where she had to attend Lingyun and the captain's wedding as a bridesmaid, Su Yunjin felt another strong heart attack.

But she was a well-educated lady after all, so she didn't rashly vent her negative emotions. She just smiled and said nonchalantly:
"Then Captain, when do you think it would be the right time for us to consider this kind of thing?"

"Uh..." Yan Yu pondered for a moment, "At least we have to wait until the third year of the spiritual energy revival, right?"

Considering the first year of the spiritual energy revival coincided with my high school graduation, that meant the captain wanted to wait until my junior year before dating, right? Su Yunjin pondered, but why did it have to be the third year? What was the significance of this timing?

Everyone returned to the Jinling Villa, and Zhao Yuanzhen started to urge them again:

"So what's for dinner tonight?"

"You ate up all my eight-treasure stewed duck last time, and I haven't settled the score with you yet!" Lin Ning said angrily.

"Yan Yu doesn't have much of an appetite to begin with, so I'm helping you avoid food waste. Isn't that good enough?" Zhao Yuanzhen patted his flat belly and said proudly, "I don't expect you to recreate the state banquet dishes today. You can just make another stewed duck from last time." "There's no stewed duck," Lin Ning replied expressionlessly, "If you want to eat it, go buy salted duck yourself."

Seeing that she was unmoved by his soft words and hard tactics, Zhao Yuanzhen secretly sent a message to Yan Yu:

"Yanyu, I want to eat the eight-treasure braised duck from last time."

"Let Ningning do it for you." Yan Yu said.

"She doesn't want to, so there's nothing I can do about it." The demonic girl saw this clearly, "But if you ask for it, she'll definitely make it for you."

"What's the benefit of me doing this?" Yan Yu asked.

"If you tell her you want to eat stewed duck, a very powerful female cultivator will come to your room tonight to help you practice breathing exercises and move the Qi of the Universe," Zhao Yuanzhen said seriously. "She will also help you maintain and update your puppet."

Yan Yu was immediately amused by her.

Witch! How dare you negotiate with me about something that already belongs to me?
However, speaking of puppet updates, this reminded Yan Yu that the demon woman from the Demon Sect did obtain a rare treasure from the secret realm of the Li Palace. I remember it was called "Qianling Zhenmei Fire".

Over the past few days, everyone has been attending the awarding ceremony in Pingjing. All the gains from the trip away from the palace have been turned in and sent to the scientific research department for record keeping and to the corresponding research plan. Once those items are returned, this Qianling Zhenmei Fire will be used to transform the puppets.

Chen Lingyun has privately told Chen Tianming that Yan Yu and Zhao Yuanzhen own puppets, and he will "legalize" this matter at the top.

After Mei Yingxue said that she would not pursue the feud with the Demon Sect witch, the existence of the Qiansi Dafa no longer needed to be concealed, and it could slowly appear in the public eye... As relevant information was gradually disclosed, the secrecy of the puppet itself as a "secret weapon" would naturally disappear, and more and more enemies would be on guard against it, so it was still necessary to strengthen it by constantly updating and iterating the puppet itself.

Well, there will be many more places where this witch will be useful in the future! I'll just fulfill her wish this time!

"Ningning." Yan Yu asked, "Do you have any ingredients left at home to make the stewed duck we made last time?"

"Captain, do you want to eat?" Lin Ning was a little happy and proud at first, but she quickly came to her senses. She glanced at Zhao Yuanzhen suspiciously and asked secretly, "It's Sister Zhao who wants to eat, right?"

"Yes." Yan Yu admitted calmly, "She ate the stewed duck you made last time, and recently everything else she eats tastes like chewing wax, so she secretly sent a message to ask me to help you."

"Humph." Lin Ning was completely unconvinced and sneered, "Didn't she like the dishes from last night's state banquet? My cooking skills are not as good as those of a national-level chef. Ask the state banquet chef to cook for her!"

"That's just how your sister Zhao is," Yan Yu said with a smile. "She's tough when it comes to talking tough, but she's so soft when it comes to eating. Eh? How about this? Make this dish again and put it in front of her... Make her admit that Ningning's cooking is the best in the world, or she won't let her eat it! Remember to record it with a recorder, and see how she can still be so stubborn after she finishes eating it."

Lin Ning was in a good mood immediately and said proudly:
"My cooking skills aren't the best in the world, I can only make some home-cooked dishes. Humph, stewing a duck takes too much time, so I won't make it for her. But I did secretly note down the dishes she liked at the state banquet last night. I'll go back and replicate them, and see what she says then!"

Seeing that Lin Ning finally agreed, Yan Yu stopped talking and sat on the sofa to watch TV.

"Captain." Lin Ning suddenly said in a voice transmission, "Chinese New Year is coming next month."

"Well, what's wrong?" Yan Yu asked, "I know you want to go back and spend the New Year with your family."

"I'm going back to celebrate the New Year." Lin Ning was silent for a while, then suddenly asked, "Are you free recently? Can you accompany me to Qingyuan Mansion?"

"What's wrong?" Yan Yu suddenly became alert, "Are you trying to find me to pretend to be your boyfriend again?"

"No!" Lin Ning quickly defended herself, "And you refused last time! I mean... my dad said you're the team leader and asked me to build a good relationship with you, so I wanted to invite you to my house for dinner. Anyway, it's very convenient to fly back and forth with a sword now... Well, right? Of course, if you don't want to come, it's okay, I can go back and explain to my dad..."

Although she repeatedly emphasized that "it doesn't matter if you don't come", Yan Yu couldn't understand what she meant. It was clearly a veiled "I really hope you can come", so he responded directly:
"Sure. As captain, we're going to have a quick meal. It's no problem on my end. When is the date?"

"At noon on New Year's Eve." Lin Ning said quickly.

Yan Yu:?
