Chapter 1 Young Chef

Dongzhou Land.

On the mountain road of Xuanyun Dynasty, a convoy of about 20 people was moving slowly forward.

A young man carrying a big spoon on his back was staggering behind the convoy.

Probably because of the hurry, his face was flushed, as if he had used up all his strength in one step, and he was out of breath.

Not long after, a loud roar came from the front: "The eldest lady has ordered us to stay where we are tonight."

Hearing this roar, the young man who fell behind seemed to be rescued and breathed a sigh of relief. He untied the big spoon and threw it aside, and sat on the ground and muttered.

"I'm so tired, and I don't know where the eldest lady is going?"

"And this mountain, when can we get over it?"

The young man's name is Ye Chunyang, and he grew up in the Su family's canteen.

This trip, he was responsible for the food and daily life of the convoy.

The Su family is a big family in Xuanyun Dynasty.

Su Xueyuan, the only daughter of the Su family, entered a certain sect to learn martial arts since she was a child.

She never returned home for several years after learning.

Just a few days ago, Su Xueyuan returned in a low-key manner.

The next day, he selected a team of people, loaded several large boxes of money, and left the Su Mansion again.

Today is the fifth day of the trip.

Although Ye Chunyang was a little curious about the purpose of this trip, it was only curiosity.

After his parents died, he took over the job in the canteen and never left the Su Mansion since then.

At the moment, his mind is full of the novelty of going out.

The air outside seems to be much fresher than that in the Su Mansion.

It is really pleasant to travel around the mountains and rivers every day and prepare meals for everyone on time.

It is just a bit hard to rush!

At this time, seeing that the sky is getting dark, it is almost time for dinner.

Ye Chunyang has rested enough, got up and picked up dry firewood, ready to make a fire and cook.

When he returned to the tent with dry firewood, a figure was already sitting inside.

This person is tall and strong, with a cold look and great majesty. It is the leader of the guards on this trip, Su Hu!

Seeing this man, Ye Chunyang's face darkened.

Trouble is coming.

Su Hu is the son of the chief steward of the Su family. Because he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, he is taller than others and has done many evil things in the Su Mansion.

For some reason, after this trip, this guy has restrained his behavior a lot. He is very polite to everyone, but he only targets himself.

I don't know where I offended him?

Thinking of this, Ye Chunyang was about to put down the dry firewood, and Su Hu looked at him coldly and said: "Ye Chunyang, do you know what time it is now?"

"To answer the commander-in-chief, it is the hour of the evening."

"Since you know the hour of the evening, why haven't you prepared the meal yet? If you delay the meal time of the eldest lady, can you bear the responsibility?" Su Hu said coldly.

Ye Chunyang said, "If you delay the young lady's meal, the young lady will punish you."

"Hmph, there is no need for the young lady to intervene in such a small matter. I just need to make a statement. You said that you have been holding the team back all the way. As a cook, you have repeatedly delayed the young lady's meal."

"Now I'm giving you a chance. Pack up your things and leave the team immediately. Get back to the Su Mansion! Otherwise, when the young lady blames you, it won't be as simple as rushing back."

"What do you mean, Commander Su?"

Hearing this, Ye Chunyang could no longer remain calm. His face changed and his eyes stared at Su Hu.

Is he trying to drive me away?

Now that he has been in the mountains for a few days, if he returns to the Su family alone from this dense forest, he will probably be eaten by a beast before he even leaves the forest.

This is not driving me away, but wanting him to die!

Thinking of this, Ye Chunyang's face turned cold.

"Hmph, what's the point? I'll give you three breaths to think about it, or I'll report it to the young lady, and then you'll..."

"I can give Commander Su an answer right now."

Su Hu just opened his mouth when he was interrupted by Ye Chunyang.

Su Hu was happy when he heard this. It seems that this kid has accepted his fate, right?

But Ye Chunyang's next words made his pupils shrink.

"Give Commander Su three breaths of time. Please leave quickly and don't delay my meal preparation."

"If Commander Su doesn't leave, it will really delay the young lady's meal. It will be bad if Commander Su is punished together."

Ye Chunyang was out of character, and his words were full of the meaning of driving people away.

After saying that, he didn't even look at Su Hu, but walked to the stove with dry firewood, ready to light a fire and cook.

"You are so good, Ye Chunyang, you don't accept the toast and drink the penalty wine."

Su Hu was furious and raised his whip to swing it.

Before leaving the house, he learned from his father that when the eldest lady returned home, she intended to select someone from the family to follow her into the sect. In the end, two people were selected, one of whom was Ye Chunyang.

Ye Chunyang was just a cook with no background, but he was actually selected together with him, which really made him feel unfair.

It was said that the sect that the eldest lady joined was so powerful that even the court could not control it.

Such a great thing, of course, can only be enjoyed by himself.

Now he can only make up a reason to report to the eldest lady after Ye Chunyang left, and there will be no way to verify it at that time.

After he follows the eldest lady into the sect, all problems will no longer be problems.

But this kid not only did not take his words seriously, but also acted as if he was driving him away, which made him furious.

But just as he swung the whip, a voice suddenly came from outside.

"Su Hu, Ye Chunyang, the eldest lady wants to see you two."

Hearing this voice, Su Hu quickly put away the whip.

He was scared.

How did this person come so coincidentally?

Could it be that the young lady knew that he was making things difficult for the boy?

Fortunately, he didn't hurt the boy, otherwise it would be hard to explain to the young lady later.

Ye Chunyang was also a little surprised.

He didn't know what the young lady wanted to call him for.

Speaking of which, he had never met the young lady before.

He was immediately looking forward to it.

He put down the firewood, and followed the guide with Su Hu to the outside of the young lady's tent.

"You two come in."

Before the guide could announce it, the people inside seemed to have sensed it, and a silver bell-like voice came out.

Ye Chunyang and the other person lifted the curtain and walked in.

Inside the tent.

A gorgeous woman of eighteen or nineteen years old sat in the middle. Her skin was like snow, her eyebrows were like paintings, and her green dress outlined her graceful figure to the fullest.

Su Hu stood on the left side of the woman, standing very properly. Even when Ye Chunyang came in, his eyes did not move at all.

"This woman must be the eldest lady, she is really comparable to the exiled immortal in the painting."

The first time he saw such a beautiful woman, Ye Chunyang couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

However, when he and Su Xueyuan looked at each other, he was a little timid, and even had an illusion that there was a stream of air lingering around him.

Ye Chunyang avoided her eyes.

This eldest lady actually made him feel an inexplicable strange feeling. When they looked at each other just now, he seemed to be seen through by the other party.

At this time, looking at Ye Chunyang, Su Xueyuan's eyes also flashed with a little surprise.

"As expected, as I detected it in the mansion that day, this boy's spiritual roots are weird, as if there is something there. But compared to Su Hu, his character is not bad."

She sat in front, looking at him slightly, with a deep look in her expression.

"The senior brother who is going to pick us up will arrive tonight. We don't have to worry about anyone coming to snatch the treasure. Once he arrives, he can take the treasure and the two of us back to the sect."

After thinking for a moment, Su Xueyuan waved and asked the two of them to stand in front of her, and said:

"I am going back to the Su family this time to select the right person to join my Lingyun Sect. Both of you have spiritual roots, so you can follow me back to the sect. But are you willing to cultivate immortality?"
