I don't understand Chapter 2657.

The group of barbarian goddess women stared intently at Ye Changqing, who was holding a golden dragon-patterned kitchen knife.

On the cutting board, a plucked fire chicken lay quietly.

The kitchen knife in Ye Changqing's hand danced in an instant, creating countless afterimages.

The group of barbarian women felt as if they hadn't seen anything at all, and the entire Fire Spirit Chicken was cut into pieces.

"what's the situation?"

A barbarian woman muttered to herself, looking dazed. She hadn't even blinked.

Before you could even see anything clearly, the Fire Spirit Chicken was dismembered?

That shouldn't be the case. Putting aside their cooking skills, their strength is above Ye Changqing's. How could they not see it?

I was hoping to learn something from them, but I didn't understand it at all. What's the point of learning anything from this?

For a moment, the women of the barbarian tribe looked at each other in bewilderment and remained silent.

All eyes finally fell on the elderly woman at the head of the group, who was the old clan chief's wife.

She was considered the head of all the women in the tribe, so the women of the Barbarian God Clan naturally had no choice but to turn to her for help.

But the old woman didn't understand either. Under everyone's gaze, the old man could only helplessly speak up.

"Young friend, could you slow down a bit? We didn't see it clearly just now."

As he spoke, he glanced at the extraterrestrial demon beside him, who quickly began to translate.

Ye Changqing naturally nodded in agreement, and by the time he caught the second Fire Spirit Chicken, he had slowed down considerably.

This time, the women of the barbarian god tribe finally saw things clearly, but seeing things clearly is one thing, understanding them is another.

Ye Changqing's technique, at first glance, seems to have nothing particularly profound about it.

It's just ordinary, everyday cutting of meat.

If it were one of the men in the family, they would probably think they understood it at a glance.

This is what is meant by "ignorance is bliss."

Because they don't cook regularly and have no culinary skills, they thought Ye Changqing's knife skills were perfectly fine.

However, the women who were used to cooking noticed something amiss.

Ye Changqing's seemingly ordinary technique, though appearing simple at first glance, is far more complex than it seems, both in terms of the angle at which he strikes and the subtle variations in force.

The group of barbarian women were still confused.

I understand half of it, but I don't understand the other half at all.

Even after Ye Changqing finished cutting up the second Fire Spirit Chicken, the group of Barbarian God Clan women still only had a vague understanding of what was going on.

What kind of situation is this? At the beginning, Ye Changqing was too fast. They didn't even understand what was happening before he was gone.

Ye Changqing did slow down as requested, but they still only had a vague understanding of what he was seeing.

After studying it for a while, the group of barbarian goddess women felt that they were very stupid. They couldn't understand it from the beginning. What should they do?

Finally, after a moment of silence, it was the old man at the head of the group who, disregarding his pride, took the initiative to ask.

For example, what are the considerations behind Ye Changqing's angle of slashing, and what are the considerations behind the subtle changes in force during this process?

In any case, they asked about everything in great detail.

Faced with the old man's questions, Ye Changqing indeed answered everything he knew.

After all, when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head; if you can teach, you should naturally teach.

Regardless, we still need to maintain good relations with the barbarian gods in order to survive more safely in this world.

With Ye Changqing's patient and detailed explanation, the group of barbarian goddess women gradually understood.

Many of the questions in my mind were answered one by one by Ye Changqing.

After Ye Changqing finished speaking, the group of barbarian goddess women nodded in agreement, their eyes filled with excitement.

Who would have thought that there was so much to learn about cutting meat, such a simple task?

What they used to do was simply cut the meat open and that was it.

Unlike Ye Changqing, who had to cut according to the texture of the meat or something similar.

Previously, none of the barbarian goddess women had ever even considered such things.

They have indeed learned a lot from Ye Changqing today, as if a new door has been opened for them.

I thought that once I learned how to cut meat, it would be a good start, and things would go much smoother from there; I should have already gotten the hang of it.

But as Ye Changqing cut the chicken into pieces of varying sizes, preparing to move on to the next task...

After watching for a while, the group of barbarian women frowned again.

For no other reason than that they can't understand it anymore.

Ye Changqing also slowed down, as there was still plenty of time.

The group of barbarian goddess women probably wanted to learn Ye Changqing's cooking skills, so they set aside a lot of time for it.

There's no need to rush.

The problem is, even though Ye Changqing slowed down, many women still couldn't understand it.

And this time it was even more outrageous, unlike the previous times when they cut meat.

As they watched Ye Changqing begin preparing the other side dishes, the group of women realized that they not only couldn't understand it, but were completely unable to comprehend it.

Even if Ye Changqing were to explain, the group of barbarian goddess women would have to exert a great deal of effort to understand and think before they could slowly grasp even a little bit of the meaning.

Wait a minute, this is supposed to be cooking? It feels harder than cultivation!

"The art of cooking is indeed no simpler than cultivation."

Faced with a barrage of questions from the women, Ye Changqing could only sigh.

I never thought they could learn it. You know, even the human immortal chefs could only learn the basics after following Ye Changqing.

It's not that Ye Changqing doesn't want to teach, it's that they just can't learn it.

Even if you understand it, you still need a lot of practice and continuous accumulation of experience to improve little by little.

This is similar to how human cultivators practice magic.

I can teach you, and even guide you through the basics, but once you've mastered the basics, you'll need to work hard on your own to achieve proficiency.

This is an extremely long process, a real test of patience and perseverance.

Without putting in hard work and relying solely on the master's guidance, one will never achieve anything great in their lifetime.

In Ye Changqing's view, the same applies to cooking skills.

I will teach you the methods, but whether you can master them, and how much you can master, depends entirely on your own efforts.

There's no such thing as something you can learn just by watching me teach you once.

Therefore, Ye Changqing understood the helplessness of the barbarian women, but he had no other good solutions.

Upon hearing Ye Changqing's words, the group of barbarian goddess women fell silent.

That seems to be true. Ye Changqing taught without reservation, but this is only the beginning. How much more one can learn depends on one's own efforts.

However…they, the barbarian gods, didn’t put in much effort in their cultivation.

(Happy New Year, brothers! Wishing all my brothers and sisters a prosperous and successful 2026!!!)
