Genshin Impact, Raiden Shin joins the chat group

"what?!"

Everyone was shocked. Looking at Hu Tao's proud expression, they were speechless for a moment.

“All the chefs in Liyue will be participating.” Seeing the shocked expressions on everyone’s faces, Hu Tao continued, “It’s a bit of a shame that chefs from other countries aren’t participating.”

"However, the chefs in Liyue are also top-notch. At least in my knowledge, there are few chefs who can compare to Xiangling. She is an unimaginable formidable opponent."

Thinking this, Hu Tao slapped her forehead and pulled Zhong Li aside, saying, "I almost forgot! Guest Elder, come with me!!! There's an order from Qingce Manor!! Let's go quickly!"

"I completely forgot about it while we were chatting!"

After saying that, Hu Tao pulled Zhong Li, whose face was full of helplessness, away.

Seeing Hu Tao come and go in such a hurry, everyone fell silent for a moment.

Chapter 248 Your Highness, something terrible has happened!

"........."

Hu Tao left in a hurry, leaving Su Hao and the others completely bewildered; their expressions were clearly shocked.

"what happened?"

Looking at the bewildered Su Hao and the others, Paimon couldn't help but ask, "Is it really that exaggerated?"

To be honest, Paimon had heard about the terrifying legend of Kurumi from Shinobu Hisaki.

But it was just hearsay; looking at the lively walnut and the other person's joyful smile...

Paimon felt he could still trust the other person's cooking skills.

Look how cute she is! She couldn't possibly make some kind of killer dish, could she?!

At the same time... Paimon was also quite curious: if it really was some kind of killer dish, what would it taste like?

For a moment, Paimon actually felt a little hungry.

"Ah."

Su Hao, Ella, Shen He, Jiu Qiren, Gui Zhong, Shan Hu Gong Xin Hai and others nodded in unison.

Clearly, apart from Ying and Paimon, who had never seen walnut cooking, everyone else had witnessed how terrifying walnuts were.

The food they prepared was not for humans to eat, but for ghosts and spirits.

Of course, if the ghosts and gods knew this, they might not eat Walnut's dishes, because in a sense, the dishes were indeed very, very terrifying.

Perhaps even ghosts or gods who eat her cooking might end up like Yae no Miko.

The old man Zhongli looked troubled and didn't know what to say.

"I'm a little scared."

Su Hao looked at Gui Zhong beside him, his lips twitching slightly, and said, "Can I not be a judge anymore?"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to leave this judging panel alive."

It's worth noting that Su Hao was invited by Ningguang and the other seven stars to become a judge on the food show "Liyue".

Originally, this was a good thing, and Su Hao was quite looking forward to seeing the skills of the Liyue chefs, but he was a little scared.

As a judge, he must taste the contestants' dishes; otherwise, he would have no way to score them.

It's extremely unfair for judges to make arbitrary comments without even eating the contestants' food, both for the food itself and for the contestants.

What if it's an absolutely divine delicacy?!

Furthermore, something like this happened in Liyue Harbor back then: a culinary master believed he had mastered all the world's delicacies.

One day, a gourmet placed a stinky bean dish in front of him.

He didn't even eat it, immediately belittling it to the point of being worthless, even suggesting that it should be considered garbage rather than a delicacy.

Finally, the Emperor himself appeared, ate the foul-smelling bean dish, and even gave his opinion on it.

They believed that there was room for improvement in this dish, and praised its inventor, encouraging him to continue his efforts.

The fate of that culinary master was predictable; he believed he had tasted all the world's delicacies, yet he so casually criticized the food that others had painstakingly prepared.

Ultimately, he ended up with a ruined reputation and left Liyue Harbor forever.

Because of this, in any food competition held in Liyue Harbor, judges must first taste the contestants' dishes before they can evaluate them.

Unless... the raw materials used by the other party are things that ordinary people cannot tolerate.

Gui Zhong placed her hand on Su Hao's shoulder and said very seriously, "Live on!"

"........."

Su Hao remained silent for a moment.

"Hahahaha~ Just kidding~" Gui Zhong smiled and looked at Su Hao, saying, "Of course I won't let you die, if you really don't want to participate as a judge."

"How about I give you special treatment? Let you have the right to sample the food? Eat if you want! Don't eat if you don't want to!"

"I still have that right; all I need to do is have Morax say the word."

Su Hao shook his head, indicating his refusal. Although Gui could ultimately do it, the people of Liyue wouldn't say anything if he did.

But if Little Walnut finds out that she used this right to avoid eating Walnut's delicious food, how heartbroken she will be.

"Huh?! Gui Zhong, can you let us participate in the food show?!" Paimon's eyes widened, his eyes gleaming with a unique light.

Clearly, she also wanted to participate in the food documentary series, since that's what they came for.

"…………" Ying looked somewhat speechless, grabbed Paimon, covered his mouth, and looked at Gui Zhong calmly, saying, "No need."

"Paymon is just a glutton, don't worry about her."

One should have self-awareness, and Ying is that kind of person; she knows it very well.

Su Hao was able to become a judge because he was the group owner of the chat group, and he also had a good relationship with the Liyue Immortal Clan and made many contributions.

When the leader of the guild was talking about Su Hao, she also mentioned that he had done some things in Liyue and was highly regarded by the Seven Stars of Liyue.

"That's not a big problem."

Gui Zhong looked at Ying, smiled slightly, and said, "If you really want to be judges, then I can say a few words."

"But you need to pass a few assessments before you can become judges."

"Those assessments are simple; they just involve eating a few dishes and giving your evaluation."

To be honest, Gui Zhong is still quite curious about Ying and Paimon.

Su Hao always pulled people in one by one; he never pulled two people in one go.

And these two are quite extraordinary. Ying is a Descendant, a blood relative of the prince of the Abyss Order.

As for this Paimon, he ultimately couldn't see through him, and Zhongli didn't give him any hints.

So she treated Ying and Paimon with a normal attitude. Being a judge was too simple; it was just a small event organized for her.

As long as we communicate with the Seven Stars of Liyue, there won't be any problems.

As for identities, you can just fill in any one, such as a knight of honor from Mondstadt, a friend of the next Thunder General, or a new friend of the Dust Demon.

Regardless of the identity, it doesn't matter much, since they're all real anyway.

"Great!!!"

Paimon seemed exceptionally happy.

Seeing how happy she was, Su Hao suddenly had an idea and said seriously, "This is a good thing, why don't you agree, traveler?"

Ying was about to refuse again, but after Su Hao said that, she was unsure whether to refuse or not.

After all, Paimon came to Liyue with her intending to participate in the food event. Now that she has the opportunity, it would be fine if she refused once, but refusing twice would probably be unfair to Su Hao and Gui Zhong's good intentions.

"Then thank you very much." Ying could only express her gratitude; she couldn't do anything about Paimon's gluttony.

And so, Su Hao and Gui Zhong finalized the matter.

After this matter was settled, Guizhong also planned to leave. She said she was going to Mount Aozang to find Liuyun.

She also asked Ella and Shenhe if they wanted to go to Mount Ozang together, since Liuyun had just asked them to go to Mount Ozang to receive a new inheritance before he left.

After all, half a year had passed, and Ella and Shen He's strength had improved by leaps and bounds. The things they had taught back then were now somewhat outdated.

As the master, True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng felt it was time to teach him something new.

Furthermore, as an immortal who survived the war between demons and gods, Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun possesses a great deal of knowledge, but over the centuries, very few people have been able to fully inherit her legacy.

Seeing how outstanding Ella and Shen He are right now, she was ultimately happy for her old friend, so before leaving, she asked them what they thought.

Knowing that they couldn't go to the Abyss of Laminaria in the short term, Ella and Shenhe accepted Guizhong's invitation and went to Mount Aozang with her.

And so, Guizhong, Ella, and Shenhe temporarily left Liyue Harbor to go to Mt. Aozang to receive a new legacy.

Simply put, it's about learning new things to improve your strength before heading to the Layered Rock Abyss.

If anything unusual happens, you can be notified through the chat group.

"What are your plans next?"

After Gui Zhong, Ella, and Shen He left, Su Hao looked at Ying Mei and Paimon and asked them what their plans were next.

"Arrangements? No, not at all."

Paimon shook her head slightly and looked at Su Hao, saying, "Because we're going to explore Liyue Harbor next to prepare for our accommodations."

"A place to stay?" Su Hao raised an eyebrow and looked at Yingmei, saying, "Are you still looking for a place to stay?"

Ying nodded and looked at Su Hao, saying, "Yes, we still have enough Mora to stay in Liyue Harbor for a while."

At this point, Ying couldn't help but feel a little sentimental, thinking back to when she and Paimon didn't have Mora.

But after spending some time outdoors in the wind and rain, I don't know what to say about that period.

That was truly a story of bitter tears.

"If that's the case, why not stay here?"

At this moment, Jiuqi Ren spoke up. She looked at Ying and said, "Su Hao's house is quite big. If you stay here, wouldn't you save some Mora?"

"After all, the accommodations here in Liyue Harbor are relatively expensive, and can't compare to those in Inazuma and Mondstadt."
