Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 1307 God of Cooking

Chapter 1307  G.o.d of Cooking

"What is the current situation of the other parasites? What's their reaction?" w.a.n.g Wei asked.

"Things are becoming complicated," w.a.n.g Qi replied seriously. "There are signs that the fights between the two suns might reach here."

"A battle between Buddhism and Taoism? Tell me what happened?" w.a.n.g Wei frowned.

"It started with the disappearances of a few renowned Taoist Priests and Eminent Monks, but about 15,000 years ago, these two had a direct confrontation over a small Source Stone Mine."

"Do you think someone is manipulating these events?"

"Red Mask had the same thought, but after investigation, we found no mastermind. However, we found a few people secretly fanning the flame."

"Did we join in the fanning?"

"I wanted to, but Red Mask said there were too many people already doing it, and there is no point in joining since we might be revealed," w.a.n.g Qi explained.

"That's fine," w.a.n.g Wei nodded. Since he handed everything over to us, he trusted her judgment. "If Buddhism can retrain and balance Taoism, I'll have more room to maneuver," w.a.n.g Wei muttered. "What about the others?"

"They have entered the highest state of alert. They cleaned up a few core territories, eliminating all spies or anyone they deemed suspicious. We've lost a few people," w.a.n.g Wei explained. "Luckily, our methods are far from ordinary."

The Fate Shadow Guards will parasite someone's fate line and take on their ident.i.ty, luck, destiny, and everything else. This method is hard to guard against or detect. Although they lost some members, they still retain a decent amount of them.

"From what we know, they've been doing a few things since that day. Firstly, they've been using their resources to build their military. It seems that everyone is preparing for something.

"Secondly, they've been on guard against each other while lowering their previous confrontation — at least, in the open." From what the guards reported, w.a.n.g Qi knew there had been a decrease in confrontation between the borders of these parasites' territory.

"The third thing is they have been hunting down Xun Junyao," w.a.n.g Qi continued. "They have offered a substantial price for any information on her whereabouts and even more for her capture."

"Only capture?" w.a.n.g Wei asked.

"Yes."

"Even the two women?"

"That's right."

"I want to believe they want her alive because she's valuable and due to the Blood Dragon's wealth in her hands, but I doubt that's the truth," w.a.n.g Wei sighed. "Continue."

"The last thing is they are looking for us," w.a.n.g Wei added. "To be precise, they are looking for Dragon Palace."

"That's understandable," w.a.n.g Wei nodded. The palace contained unimaginable wealth, so he reckoned many people were looking for it, even these top lineages. "Is that all?"

"That should be it. No, there is also the Celestial Race."

"Them? What do they want?"

"They seem very satisfied with Blood Dragon's death and decided to increase their investment," w.a.n.g Qi replied with a bright smile. "They've provided us with many resources to train Immortal Path talents."

"That's good to hear," w.a.n.g Wei nodded. "I guess I don't have to enter the business of selling unique Qis." He can easily enter that line of work with his Spirit Flower Ability. However, w.a.n.g Wei's original target was the Rebellion and a means of ama.s.sing wealth. He resisted the urge to launch this plan because of his relations.h.i.+p with the Celestial Clan.

However, now that the rebellion was under his control, he was wealthy beyond words, and his relations.h.i.+p with the Celestial Race dramatically improved. There was no need to ruin their friends.h.i.+p by stealing their business, and he could still use the Qis to train his people.

"Alright, I'll check with Red Mask." The screen changed, and Red Mask appeared. She reported everything to w.a.n.g Wei, and he dealt with the issues she could not decide on. Afterward, w.a.n.g Wei checked on the Fate Changing Hall before he was completely free.

'I finally have a good foundation,' w.a.n.g Wei thought. After digesting Blood Dragon's network, his Fate Shadow Guard will finally be able to compete on a global scale. Then, with the Fate Changing Hall, the rebellion, and the Lawless Zone's people, he can build a potent military force to compete with the parasites.

'The only thing missing is the Paragon Tier powerhouse, and that can be solved after entering the Taboo Realm,' w.a.n.g Wei thought. 'It would be even better if Mongke could also succeed." w.a.n.g Wei smiled brightly. He built such a foundation in such a short period, making him slightly proud. However, he only indulged in such emotion for a few seconds before calming down and returning to his former self. After all, his enemies were numerous, so his current power was still not enough.

w.a.n.g Wei turned his eyes to look at Hui Mengwei. The latter stood with a tray on his hands, his legs and arms trembling. w.a.n.g Wei spent at least 3 hours talking and dealing with his affairs, but Hui Mengwei stood in this position without moving.

"A man of firm will," w.a.n.g Wei praised. Of course, he noticed the latter when the food was ready, but he did not say anything just to test him.

Put the food on the table."

"Yes, my Lord," Hui Mengwei nodded. "I must apologize since the food is now cold."

"It's fine," w.a.n.g Wei said. With a thought, he returned the food to its state a few hours ago and tried it. By his standards, this food tasted like garbage. However, by his mortal standard, it was excellent — especially the noodles.

"This noodle is not bad," w.a.n.g Wei said.

"Thank you, my lord," Hui Mengwei swiftly said. "This is a family recipe that has been refined for more than 10,000 years."

"That is indeed impressive," w.a.n.g Wei nodded. Mortals in the upper dimension can live up to 500 years, and if they take care of themselves and even practice some basic martial arts or health-preservation techniques, they can live twice as long. Unfortunately, most die in a catastrophe created by cultivators before reaching such old age. So, the Hui family can survive for more than 10,000 years, which is a sign of their luck and prosperity.

"Previously, I only wanted to give up a small opportunity," w.a.n.g Wei said. "But now, I have changed my mind." w.a.n.g Wei's original plan was just to praise the food as long as it was decent. This might not appear much, but it was praise from an Empyrean and one that is loved by fate. Hui Mengwei's Qi Luck would soar with his words only, and his family would be blessed with more than 100,000 years of good fortune. As long as they use that fortune correctly, it would not be impossible for them to become a cultivation family.

w.a.n.g Wei raised his hand to summon an Empyrean Artifact. He activated his Purpose Manipulation Technique to change the functions of the artifact.

'Should I give him a system? Maybe even memories from Earth? No, that will only cause trouble. In that case, let's rebuild these Earth cuisines in another way.'

He created a few worlds based on cooking inspired by Earth's cuisine and media (television, anime) and left them inside the artifact. Hui Mengwei can experience them and learn their techniques and dishes.

'He probably needs a pure cooking base cultivation technique. Should I deduce one? No, it's best if I find and modify an existing one so he can attain the Duyi Realm."

However, after searching his mind, he did not have such a technique — even amongst the ones the sect gave him. 'd.a.m.n it. If only those parasites didn't close the Myriad Record Temple.' w.a.n.g Wei was annoyed. He wanted to ask his future wife but felt it would be inappropriate to call her now just for this.

'In that case, let's give him a basic soul-nouris.h.i.+ng technique and tell him he can have the technique after meeting certain requirements. This should buy me enough time to find it.' w.a.n.g Wei created an artifact spirit to better facilitate this deception.

'Since my purpose is to plant Dao Fruits, it's better to go all out. Let's put cultivating a family into this artifact. If the entire Hui Clan can dedicate themselves to Cooking Dao, I'll reap even more benefits.'

w.a.n.g Wei was not doing all this for nothing. His future wife despised him for not having better cooking skills, so how could he accept that? However, w.a.n.g Wei knows he'll probably be busy for a "while," meaning he won't have time to be studying the Art of Cooking. So, he decided to have someone else do it to reap the benefit. Hui Mengwei was lucky.

'The last part is the Heaven Will. Should I leave him one or allow him to compete fairly for one?' w.a.n.g Wei pondered. 'A good cook must also be powerful to hunt certain materials. However, I also don't need to compete in these Emperor Battlefields. I can create a world similar to my father's Swordsmans.h.i.+p World and have him fight in it. However, this time, the reward can be a Heaven Will.'

w.a.n.g Wei finished the artifact before looking at Hui Mengwei.
