A Figurehead and a Calling Card

After Ling Yi's sincere and heartfelt confession, both Super Douluo Chen Jianjun and Soul Douluo Chen Xin couldn't help but develop a good impression of Ling Yi.

It can be said that everything from Chen Ningqi and the other two going to deliver the invitation, to Chen Jianjun and his son standing on the elevator to the mountain, to meeting Ling Yi, and even the subsequent verbal exchanges, was all in service of this moment.

Sensing the emotional shifts of the two people before him on a spiritual level, Ling Yi naturally turned his gaze towards the outside of the reception room. "At this time, the kitchen should have already prepared the ingredients. Seniors, please follow me and savor the culinary skills of my closest friend..."

His words suggested that he had given up on inviting the two to settle in Lingyun City.

The Chen Family father and son exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.

Did they just give up so easily?

Chen Jianjun was fine, but Chen Xin felt... a little uncomfortable.

Even if Ling Yi continued to invite them, the father and son would most likely not agree, but by not even persisting, they seemed rather cheap.

Sensing Chen Xin's emotional fluctuations, Ling Yi didn't say much. He simply stood up with a bright smile and led the two of them toward the restaurant.

If the difficulty of the strategy was extremely difficult when the father and son were on alert when they went up the mountain, now under the influence of Ling Yi's series of words, it has dropped to a level of difficulty, or even close to ordinary. 💙♞ . cOpaw 🐙☟

For Ling Yi, a seasoned player of "Real-Life Online" who excels at interpersonal communication, when it comes to winning over NPCs, he's not afraid of your emotional fluctuations, but rather of your indifferent heart.

Dining room.

When Ling Yi led Chen Jianjun and Chen Xin in, Li Zhishu was busy in front of a row of stoves with his two disciples, Chen Tianqi and Gao Yanlun.

"Old Li—!"

Seeing from afar that Li Zhishu seemed to have finished his work and was in a free period, Ling Yi immediately called out loudly.

Upon hearing Ling Yi's voice, Li Zhishu turned his attention away from his two disciples' cooking activities and looked towards the doorway.

Upon seeing Ling Yi approaching with two middle-aged men, Li Zhishu gave Chen Tianqi and the other man a few words of advice before stepping forward to greet them.

"Ah Yi," Li Zhishu said with a hearty laugh from about ten meters away, "It's been a long time since you specifically asked me to come up and cook. Are these two the distinguished guests you're hosting this time?"

As he spoke, his gaze involuntarily fell upon Chen Jianjun and Chen Xin, the 'twin brothers'.

Well, in order to ensure that everyone around him was acting with genuine feelings, Ling Yi did not reveal the situation of Chen Jianjun and his son to those around him. He only said that he had discovered two rogue experts at least at the Soul Saint level and was preparing to invite them to join Lingyun City.

"Old Li, come here, let me introduce you~"

Ling Yi strode forward, grabbed Li Zhishu's arm, and said solemnly. ★💔 ♙☮

Feeling the pressure on his arm, Li Zhishu's facial expression remained unchanged, but his originally relaxed mood suddenly turned serious.

"Seniors," Ling Yi said, pulling Li Zhishu to stand before Chen Jianjun and Chen Xin. "This is Li Zhishu, Food System Soul King. I am the head of the Food Bureau in the Three Offices and Six Ministries of Lingyun City."

"Food System Soul King?"

Chen Xin glanced at Li Zhishu's round face, her gaze slightly turned to the side.

Soul King are nothing special, but Food System Soul King are rare even among the Upper Three Sects like the Clear Sky Sect and the two great empires, making them strategic talents.

Seeing Chen Xin's changing expression, Ling Yi's smile brightened even more, while Li Zhishu maintained a humble demeanor.

This scene has played out many times in recent years.

With his transformed talent and hard work, coupled with the resources and other external help provided by Ling Yi, Li Zhishu has become Food System Soul King and has become a calling card and a signature figure of Lingyun City.

Whenever an important person arrives, Li Zhishu is solemnly introduced to the outside world by Ling Yi.

It can be said that in Lingyun City today, Li Zhishu's reputation is even slightly higher than that of Dugu Bo, the Soul Saint who is the main force in Control System!

Of course, five years have passed. Li Zhishu has broken through from Soul Ancestor to Soul King, Dugu Bo has been cultivating in the treasure land "Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well" for four years since breaking through to Soul Saint. His progress is rapid, and he is not far from level 80. Once he breaks through, his status will naturally be very different.

"Old Li, this is Senior Chen Xin, Soul Douluo- level powerhouse." Ling Yi continued his introduction.

After a pause, Ling Yi approached Chen Jianjun, his tone becoming increasingly solemn. "This is Senior Chen Xin's father, His Seven Kill Douluo."

"Your Majesty?!"

Li Zhishu's eyes widened, and she subconsciously turned to look at Ling Yi beside her, only to receive a look of affirmation from Ling Yi.

"Hiss--!"

The shock in his heart made Li Zhishu take a breath and try to calm his somewhat excited emotions.

Titled Douluo, a legendary figure in the Douluo Continent, basically only appears in people's mouths and has never been seen in reality.

It can be said that for Soul Master, the life story of any Titled Douluo is a legendary tale.

Having followed Ling Yi for so many years, Li Zhishu had seen many Soul Saint and a few Soul Douluo, but to be honest, this was the first time he had seen Titled Douluo, so he couldn't help but feel a little excited.

The legendary figure appeared right before Li Zhishu's eyes, making him feel that the Titled Douluo above Level 90 had suddenly stepped out of a fantasy dream and into reality, no longer so unattainable.

"Lingyun City, Li Zhishu, Martial Soul ' Scarlet Flame Meat-Stuffed Bread,' Level 53, Five-Ring Food System Weapon Soul King, has met His Seven Kill Douluo and Senior Chen Xin."

Li Zhishu gave a respectful self-introduction, similar to Ling Yi's earlier one.

"Hmm~" *2

With two bland responses, Ling Yi and Li Zhishu led the Chen Family father and son to their seats.

Faced with Titled Douluo, Li Zhishu felt immense pressure. After passively responding with a few words, he apologized and jogged back to the stove to continue cooking.

Because he had received Ling Yi's notification in the morning, the dishes for this dinner banquet were almost finished. Only three special ingredients from high-age Soul Beast needed to be processed by Li Zhishu again.

Chen Tianqi and Gao Yanlun, two Grand Soul Master specializing in Food System, served as waiters, bringing out one delicious dish after another.

Ling Yi poured wine, raised his glass, and toasted Chen Jianjun and Chen Xin, inviting them to taste each dish.

After a few drinks, thanks to Ling Yi's superb social skills, Chen Xin's attitude became more approachable, and her conversation became less awkward.

"Ling Yi, there's something I don't quite understand. Could you tell me about it?"

Chen Xin held the wine glass, a smile on his face, and asked.

Beside him, Chen Jianjun sipped his wine silently, his eyes clear and bright.

We'll continue tomorrow night. Goodnight everyone!
