Ever since he had obtained the Crocodile Leg, Song Shuhang had wanted to ask Fairy Bie Xue to turn it into something delicious.
Fairy Bie Xue narrowed her eyes with a smile. "You're a shrewd one... To be honest, fewer than ten Immortal Chefs in the entire Cultivation World can handle this Crocodile Leg, myself included."
Demonic beasts and edible spirit beasts were different from ordinary animals. You couldn't simply roast them and eat them. Spirit beasts were a little easier, but the demonic energy within a demonic beast's body was a completely different kind of power from a cultivator's true qi or spiritual energy.
Eating a demonic beast directly could make someone explode. So when you obtained a precious demonic-beast ingredient, it was best to have an Immortal Chef prepare it as an immortal dish.
"But I'll need a portion of this Crocodile Leg—about two-thirds of it," Fairy Bie Xue said.
The leg was enormous. Even the remaining third would be more than enough to stuff Song Shuhang.
"Deal. Consider those two-thirds your payment for preparing it, Senior Bie Xue." Song Shuhang nodded.
He just wanted to taste the Crocodile Leg. If possible, he would save some for a few fellow Daoists he was close to.
"This Crocodile Leg is precious. As your senior, I can't take advantage of you," Fairy Bie Xue said. "Besides making it into an immortal dish, I'll prepare a table of ordinary spirit dishes that mortals can eat."
Fairy Bie Xue could also add a little cultivation ingredient to ordinary food, creating a fine meal suitable for mortals.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony," Song Shuhang said. He had promised to bring lunch back for Tubo and the others.
If Fairy Bie Xue cooked it herself, his three roommates were in for a treat.
