Yae from Genshin Impact is my sister
Page 111
Hearing Paimon talk about the delicious dishes from yesterday, Su Bai felt a little regretful. He might not know about other people's cooking skills, but he certainly knew about Xiangling and Yanxiao's. The dishes they made were all top-notch.
However, Su Bai couldn't believe that Yan Xiao, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, had come up with the idea of hiding something; it must have been suggested by Boss Phil Gaudet.
As the competition progressed, various ingredients were gradually transported to the venue according to Xiangling and Yanxiao's requests, and the judges of the competition also entered the venue one after another.
"I never expected that someone as busy as Ningguang would come to watch a competition like this. It's really rare."
"I was just worried that some immortal had mysteriously disappeared and I was going to take his place. Now it seems I was just being overly anxious."
Ningguang gave Su Bai a half-smile and rolled her eyes. Su Bai's sudden disappearance yesterday almost messed up the competition. After all, the number of judges should be odd, but with Su Bai gone, the number became even. Keqing had no choice but to call Ningguang over to make up the numbers.
"Ahem, what happened yesterday was so sudden, I didn't have time to tell you all."
"Yes, yes, if my men hadn't seen you flying towards Jueyunjian, I would have been really worried that you'd been kidnapped by a bad woman."
After teasing Su Bai, Ningguang silently sized up the people delivering the ingredients. Only after discovering that they were all her subordinates did she nod and feel relieved. If there were any problems with today's meals, then the upper echelons of Liyue would probably be wiped out.
The poisoning case a few days ago served as a stark reminder to Ningguang that there are quite a few treacherous people in this world, and for Liyue's sake and for her own, she cannot be careless.
"By the way, what happened to the guy who planned to poison us? Did his accomplices confess? If you need, I can use illusion magic to ask him for you."
"No need for that trouble. I've already handed the person over to a professional. Speaking of which, could you give me another cell phone? This very capable professional under my command is investigating the Layered Rock Abyss and may need to contact you frequently."
Ningguang, who asked Su Bai for her phone, didn't hide anything from him. Instead of making up various excuses, she decided to tell Su Bai frankly. Moreover, her professional colleague had always been very curious about immortals. When Su Bai returned to Liyue Harbor from Inazuma, it was her subordinate who volunteered to investigate Su Bai.
After hearing Ningguang's words, Su Bai took out a mobile phone and handed it to her. According to Abedo, he was about to successfully develop the latest version of the phone, which supposedly allowed users to create their own group chats and set up group owners and such. Anyway, it was Ying who suggested it, so Su Bai didn't quite understand.
"The cooking time for this final is one hour. Both sides should check the ingredients provided by the organizer. If there are no problems, then we can begin."
No problem x2
"Alright, please have the judges of this competition take their seats."
Under Yanfei's guidance, Su Bai, Hu Tao, Ying, Ke Qing, and Tian Shu all sat on the judges' chairs. As Ying's pet in the eyes of outsiders, Paimon also benefited from Ying's presence and sat on Ying's lap, looking forward to the delicious food that was coming.
"Haha, I didn't expect you guys to be all young people. I was wondering why an old man like me would come here, but Ningguang insisted that I come."
"Uncle Tian, don't say that. You're in great health. You could work for another thirty or fifty years without any problem."
Ke Qing's words were incredibly sincere. She knew Tian Shu's abilities, and if something happened to him, it would definitely cause quite a commotion. But Tian Shu just laughed it off without a care in the world.
"Haha, Keqing, you little girl, you're good at making me happy. If I live another thirty or fifty years, won't I become an old monster? The future of Liyue will belong to you young people. Once you meet the right person, I'll have to make way for them."
"Uncle Tian..."
Keqing had great respect for Tian Shu, the star of the planet Tian Shu. Now that Tian Shu had said this, Keqing felt very uncomfortable. Moreover, in Liyue today, Keqing did not think that anyone could inherit the position of star Tian Shu.
Thinking of this, Ke Qing glared fiercely at Hu Tao sitting next to her. Ke Qing couldn't understand why Hu Tao could persuade so many capable people to join the Hall of Rebirth. The key point was that even Ning Guang couldn't persuade them to join.
"Ke Qing, did you glare at me just now?"
"No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense. Hurry up and get ready, Yanfei is about to announce the start of the competition."
As she spoke, Ke Qing sat up straight in the chair, while Hu Tao looked around in confusion. In the past few days, she had not only learned Xiao's xxx, but also learned a lot of basic perception and combat skills from Xiao. After searching for and not finding the person who was glaring at her, Hu Tao muttered to herself.
"This is really strange. Could it be that our master has misperceived?"
"Alright, now that the judges are seated, I hereby declare the final of this year's Liyue Chef King Competition officially open!"
After a round of applause, just as Xiangling and Yanxiao were about to light the fire, a gust of wind element came from the sky, which startled everyone present. Could it be that another enemy was about to attack Liyue?
On a high-rise building, a woman wearing a glowing bracelet raised her bow and arrow, imbued with water element, at the black dot in the sky. Behind her, Gan Yu also silently raised his bow and arrow, aiming at the woman. Although they were colleagues, if this person dared to attack Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun with his bow and arrow, Gan Yu would definitely not be polite to her.
Wow, what a huge bird!
"Ah, it's that woman! The very talkative True Lord that Su Bai mentioned!"
Xiangling and Paimon's words made the usually cheerful Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun's face turn cold. What kind of talk was this? Did she, Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun, have no dignity?
"How dare you! Which woman! And this immortal is named True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng, not some chatty True Lord."
As Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun slowly landed on the ground, he put down Shen He, who was still in his mouth. Shen He touched his hair, which had been styled in a punk-like fashion, and silently came to Su Bai's side. It was clear that the plan to hold off Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun had failed.
Chapter 239 The Sudden Arrival of the Cloud-Borrowing True Monarch
"The Lunar Festival is the perfect time for all kinds of delicious food to ripen. I heard that a chef competition is being held in Liyue Harbor today. When it comes to food and cooking, my skills and ingenuity are second to none."
"I have made this special appearance to show the world my new cooking contraption. Would you all mind if I joined in the fun?"
The words of Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun instantly sparked a heated discussion among the audience. It should be noted that no immortal had ever participated in such a competition before.
"What is this 'Divine Cooking Mechanism'? Su Bai, you and True Lord Liuyun Borrowing Wind are such good friends, do you even know what it is?"
Paimon looked at Su Bai, who was styling Shen He's hair. Su Bai's hand trembled. He thought of some very bad things, but in front of so many people, Su Bai could only pretend to be confused and shake his head.
Seeing that even Su Bai didn't know what this cooking contraption was, everyone sitting on the judging panel was filled with curiosity about it. Could it be some kind of magical treasure?
"this...."
This sudden turn of events left the host, Yan Fei, somewhat bewildered. How come even the old man, Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhen Jun, has come? This wasn't the script Ning Guang had given her. Despite being a celestial beast, she was utterly useless against Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhen Jun's powerful aura.
Yan Fei forced herself to look at Ning Guang. She noticed that Ning Guang didn't seem surprised at all. Could it be that Ning Guang had already guessed? Yan Fei silently speculated about Ning Guang's thoughts, but she never imagined that Ning Guang was also shocked, only that Ning Guang hadn't shown it.
"Why do you all look so surprised? Little Su Bai, haven't you mentioned my magical cooking mechanism to anyone else? Also, Little Su Bai, you've gotten quite bold these days, daring to even try and fool me?"
"If I hadn't seen people discussing the Chef King Competition on my phone, I would have really been fooled by you."
Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun's sharp gaze immediately fell on Su Bai. Su Bai gave a wry smile and said, "Zhenjun, don't you have any self-awareness? The food you make with your mechanisms is either burnt or undercooked. If I were to tell others, wouldn't that ruin your reputation?"
Of course, it's fine to just think these things to yourself. If you actually say them out loud, Su Bai might get taken back by True Monarch Liuyun Jiefeng and given a good talking-to.
“True Lord Liuyun, I just came back from your place and haven’t had a chance to tell my friends yet. Why don’t I tell them now and you should hurry back to your cave? I’m just kidding because it’s too hot and I’m worried you might get heatstroke.”
“What you say makes some sense. However, since you’ve mentioned my mechanism, I’ll demonstrate it for you.”
With a wave of his wings, Liu Yun Borrowed Wind True Lord brought three cooking pots with bases to the scene before everyone. Su Bai and Shen He exchanged a glance, a hint of fear flashing in their eyes.
"Since you, True Lord Liuyun, are so interested, why don't you do us the honor of participating in the final of this Chef King Competition? It would be a good opportunity for us to witness just how amazing the mechanisms of the immortals are."
"You little girl, you know how to talk. Since you've invited me so sincerely, I'll reluctantly accept your invitation."
Originally, Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun had no intention of competing with Xiang Ling and Yan Xiao. She just wanted to show everyone her new invention. However, at Ning Guang's invitation, Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun suddenly felt that winning first place in the competition might not be a bad idea. She could then show it off to her old friends.
The surrounding audience erupted in excitement when they heard Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun announce his participation in this year's Kitchen Championship. Throughout Liyue's history, this was the first time a deity had participated in such a grand competition. Even the fox spirit who had always resided in Liyue Harbor had never participated in a competition of this caliber before.
Even Zhongli, who was watching the show and slacking off outside the arena, was somewhat surprised. He didn't expect Liu Yun to actually participate in such a competition. It seems that Liu Yun has also come to accept the era of rule by man.
Zhongli, feeling quite gratified, silently took a sip of tea. Ruotuo and the two little ones beside her held cups of milk tea and stared intently at Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun on the field.
"Sister Tuotuo, what a huge crane! Klee has never seen such a big crane when she was in Mondstadt. It's amazing!"
"I didn't see Qiqi when I was gathering herbs."
Upon hearing what the two children said, Zhong Li seemed to have thought of something. He took out his phone, pointed it at the field, took a picture, and sent it to the group chat. Within seconds, the group chat exploded with excitement.
Mondstadt branch of the Hall of Rebirth: 'My god, no way, absolutely no way! How could a Liyue immortal participate in this kind of competition? Grandpa, you're even taking fake photos now!'
Amber: 'This... Generally speaking, photos on a mobile phone can't be faked, but Mr. Zhongli, my grandfather was also from Liyue, and he once told me that immortals are very cold and aloof...'
Zhongli: 'Nothing is impossible in this world. Take Su Bai, for example. Do you think he's cold? However, the appearance of True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng here is truly beyond my expectations.'
Yura: 'Su Bai is indeed not cold, but I think it's hard to say about the other immortals. Like that photo Hu Tangzhu posted a few days ago, a picture of that short immortal with her—that immortal doesn't look like a warm and welcoming immortal at all.'
Xiao: '??? Disrespectful to the Immortal Master!'
Yura: 'Huh? Why is this immortal here? I think this is the first time I've ever seen this immortal speak.'
Abedo: 'This was given to me by Su Bai to give to this immortal, but he hasn't said a word in the group chat. I even thought the phone was broken, so I specifically went to ask him.'
Amber: 'Aberdo, when are you coming back to Mondstadt? Ever since Aunt Lisa—no, Sister Lisa—found my phone, she's been inviting me to the library for tea every day, claiming it's for self-cultivation, but she just sits there looking at this and that with my phone, waaaaah~'
Abedo: 'I'll talk to Su Bai about this. If he doesn't mind me distributing the phones on a small scale, I'll give Lisa a phone.'
Mondstadt Branch of the Hall of Rebirth: 'What about me? Can I have my own cell phone too? These things are so convenient!'
Aberdo: 'Wendy, you're still within the scope of consideration. After all, this phone still has some risks; it wouldn't be good if something went wrong.'
Meanwhile, a scene unfolded on the field that left Xiangling completely baffled: Guoba, who had practically grown up with her, had 'betrayed' her!
This thick-browed, big-eyed Guoba was actually following closely behind Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun, even forgetting to help her start a fire. What kind of behavior is this? Even if the other party is an immortal, Guoba, you can't be this obsequious.
As for True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng, she was initially only somewhat suspicious of Guoba's identity, but after sensing the familiar power on Guoba, True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng was overjoyed. She never expected to meet an old friend here. Could this be fate?
Chapter 240 Night Orchid
On the judges' panel, Su Bai kept frowning after watching Shen He leave his side. Damn it, someone actually dared to attack Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun in broad daylight. They really had some nerve.
Forget about that. With Shen He and Sister Gan Yu around, that person probably won't be able to escape. What he needs to think about now is how to slip away under the nose of True Lord Liu Yun Jie Feng. He doesn't want to experience food poisoning again.
"Su Bai, are you hiding something? I noticed something was off about your expression earlier."
"Although the employees of the Rebirth Hall do have a series of benefits such as free boxes, I, the hall master, have not prepared any for you, immortal. Let me think about your symptoms, hmm~ it should be a manifestation of excessive indulgence."
"Don't worry, Su Bai, I won't tell anyone. After this Culinary King Competition is over, I'll buy you some tonics from Bai Shu."
Sitting next to Su Bai, Hu Tao noticed that Su Bai's expression hadn't been very good and asked him a few words of concern. However, these words of concern gave Su Bai a headache. Noticing that the way the people around him were looking at him was a bit strange, Su Bai hurriedly explained.
"Hu Tao, don't overthink it. I'm perfectly healthy. I just had some bad memories coming back to me and I'm going to relive them again in a bit, so I have a headache."
"Huh??"
Su Bai's inexplicable words left Hu Tao completely bewildered. What was he even talking about? She couldn't understand a word he said. It was truly baffling.
Uncle Tian glanced at Su Bai's not-so-robust body and gave him a knowing look. If he remembered correctly, he still had some high-quality tonics that he had seized from the Fools at home. Although Ningguang had told him to keep them, he was an old man and didn't need them. Hmm, he would have someone send the tonics to the Hall of Rebirth when he got home.
On a viewing platform in a high-rise building in Liyue, Gan Yu also came to cheer for Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhen Jun because of his arrival. Gan Yu did not come empty-handed this time; she was dragging an 'unidentified object' that was tightly bound behind her.
Ningguang hadn't paid much attention to the unidentified object Gan Yu brought over. She assumed it was food that Gan Yu was bringing to Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun. However, after waiting for a while and not seeing Gan Yu hand over the food to Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun, Ningguang took a closer look at the unidentified object.
"Ahem, Yelan? How did you get tied up by Ganyu??"
"Did Gan Yu find out that you were spying on her?"
Ningguang, who found the unidentified object increasingly familiar, recognized Yelan from the clues protruding from the rope after a while. However, Ningguang's first thought was not to ask Gan Yu to untie Yelan, but to wonder why this kind-hearted Gan Yu had tied Yelan up.
"Mmm, mmm!"
"This... Gan Yu, what exactly did Ye Lan do to offend you, to make you so angry?"
"If Yelan has really done something to wrong you, I will punish her severely."
Gan Yu immediately became angry upon hearing Ning Guang's words. She threw Ye Lan into Ning Guang's arms and said angrily.
“Miss Yelan is simply outrageous! Just now, she actually mistook True Monarch Liuyun Jiefeng for an ordinary crane and tried to shoot him down with her bow and arrow. If I hadn’t frozen the water arrow she shot with an ice arrow, True Monarch Liuyun Jiefeng would have been ambushed by Yelan.”
