Uncle Hui didn't know the thousands of thoughts going through his young master's mind. He only felt warm in his heart and nodded repeatedly:
"Okay, okay, this old slave must live well and watch the young master become the most amazing person on the continent."
He happily took Yin Chen's hand and walked into the warm spring-like Snow-Listening Pavilion together.
As soon as you step into the living room, a strong and rich aroma of food hits your face, tantalizing your hungry taste buds after a tiring journey.
Yin Chen looked up and saw that the large mahogany dining table was already filled with a dazzling array of dishes. Each dish was steaming hot. It was obvious that they had just been prepared at the right time.
The meat in the crystal dish is crystal clear, the aroma of Buddha Jumping Over the Wall is mellow and intoxicating, the steamed sea bass is fresh and tender, and there are several exquisite vegetarian dishes with a pleasing color combination.
Yin Chen glanced at the feast in surprise and couldn't help but smile:
"Uncle Hui, it seems that while I'm away from home, the chef you hired is really good at cooking. Look at these dishes, almost all of them are my favorite."
He understands Uncle Hui that the food cooked by the old man can only be said to be simple and delicious, far from exquisite. It is absolutely impossible to prepare such a banquet with all the colors, flavors and tastes.
With Xu Jiujiu's care, he never worried that Uncle Hui would be wronged at Star Luo City. It was not surprising that he could hire such a chef.
"Haha, the young master guessed wrong this time."
The smile on Uncle Hui's face is a bit mysterious and narrow-minded.
"This is not the chef hired by this old slave. To put it bluntly, looking at the entire Star Luo Empire, I'm afraid no one can hire this 'chef'."
"Huh?"
Yin Chen raised his eyebrows, a trace of doubt rising in his heart.
At this moment, the kitchen door curtain was opened, and a beautiful figure walked out carrying a bowl of soup.
She was wearing a simple and elegant apron, her purple hair was simply pulled up with a hairpin, and a few strands of naughty hair hung down beside her cheeks, adding a bit of homely softness and gentleness to her normally graceful face.
"Sister Jiujiu?"
Yin Chen's mouth opened slightly, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
"This table... was all made by you?"
The visitor is none other than Princess Star Luo Empire, Xu Jiujiu.
She put down the soup bowl in her hand steadily, then deftly took off her apron, put her hands on her slender waist, and raised the corner of her mouth with a proud smile, like a child asking for credit:
"Of course, in order to learn these dishes, I secretly consulted the best royal chef in the palace for several months. How about it, can it catch the eye of our great genius Yin Chen?"
"It's not just eye-catching, it makes me flattered."
Yin Chen stepped forward with a smile, naturally took her hand which was slightly warm due to busyness, and pulled her to sit down at the dining table together.
"If our princess can cook in person, I have to give it a try. I can't live up to this feeling."
Uncle Hui on the side looked at this scene, the wrinkles on his face burst into laughter.
He felt that he had really worried about the young master's life-long affairs, so there was no need for an old man like him to talk too much.
Xu Jiujiu, the majestic princess of the empire, with golden branches and jade leaves, is now washing hands and making soup for the young master. This feeling is beyond a thousand words.
What's more, I heard from people close to Her Royal Highness that she worked hard to learn how to cook, and her delicate hands that were supposed to be playing the piano and painting were burned by hot oil countless times.
Her Royal Highness the Princess has almost made her feelings clear, and her young master has not shown the slightest hint of coyness or alienation. That kind of intimacy and naturalness cannot be conveyed by any disguise.
Although the relationship between the two has not been stated clearly, in the eyes of discerning people, it has long been tacitly understood.
During the banquet, the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.
Yin Chen was talking about his experience at the Shrek Academy while tasting Xu Jiujiu's heartfelt dishes.
He started with an interesting story about Freshman Assessment and mentioned classmates with different personalities, including Gu Yuena and Ye Guyi.
"...Gu Yue She, how should I put it, is very special. She looks cold on the outside and doesn't like to talk much, but she is very strong and her control over the elements is the best among the people I have ever seen."
Yin Chen described it with pure appreciation in his tone.
Xu Jiujiu's movement of picking up vegetables paused for a moment, and then returned to normal. She listened quietly, but her eyes did not leave Yin Chen's face, as if she was sketching the appearance of the girl named Gu Yuena in her mind through his description.
Coming from a royal family, she has long since learned not to show her emotions easily.
She was not jealous, but making an assessment.
She needs to know whether every outstanding woman who appears around Yin Chen is a potential ally or a future opponent.
Gu Yuena, this name was remembered in her heart.
"There is also Ye Guyi. She is just a snack, but her Martial Soul is very powerful. It is Holy Angel, which has a strong restraint effect on Evil Soul Master..."
Hearing Ye Guyi, Xu Jiujiu's eyes softened a little.
Judging from the description of Yin Chen, the little angel is not very threatening.
But Holy Angel and Martial Soul still made her pay more attention.
Uncle Hui was listening, feeling a little dumbfounded.
Master, master, in front of a princess who is enamored of you, is it really okay to talk about other girls so openly?
Although it seems that you are aboveboard, aren't you afraid that Her Highness the Princess will feel uncomfortable?
However, Xu Jiujiu's thoughts are far deeper than Uncle Hui imagined.
She was born into the royal family, and was used to seeing marriages for profit and romantic affairs among nobles. It was not uncommon for them to give each other beautiful concubines in order to consolidate their power.
Compared with those dirty transactions, Yin Chen's frank narrative made her feel real.
Even for Duke White Tiger Dai Hao, who is known for her affectionate rumors, the Duchess is not the only mistress in the house.
She was just weighing whether the girls Yin Chen mentioned were qualified to sit at this dining table with her in the future.
"... Later, because of a mission, I went to Extreme North."
Yin Chen The topic changed.
"There, I encountered something."
He did not elaborate on the process, but calmly stated the results:
"I got the second Martial Soul, Ice Jade Empress Scorpion."
"Second Martial Soul?!"
This time, Xu Jiujiu could no longer remain calm, and the chopsticks in his hand fell on the table with a "snap".
She didn't care about losing her composure, her beautiful eyes were full of shock.
Uncle Hui stood up even more excitedly, his lips trembling:
"Double...Twin Martial Souls? God, Master, you... you have Twin Martial Souls?"
"Yes."
Yin Chen nodded affirmatively, and then released his Martial Soul aura.
One is the far-reaching and profound power of time, while the other is an icy air that is so cold that it seems to freeze the soul.
Xu Jiujiu felt the breath of Ultimate Ice, suppressing the horror in her heart, she knew what it meant.
