#407 - Chapter 407 Tradition
Mount Xiaoyao.
As long as Ye Kong cooked, many diligent disciples would instantly appear at Mount Xiaoyao.
Some would clean the tables and benches, some would tend to the flowers and plants, some would tidy up the rooms, and some would sit outside the kitchen, secretly snacking.
They knew they would get food after finishing their tasks.
Ye Kong was cooking meat in the kitchen, with fish, meat, and fruit platters, a very lavish spread.
“It would be perfect if there were some vegetables,” Ye Ling said to Ye Kong, standing in the kitchen.
Ye Kong glanced at Ye Ling and said grumpily, “If you want to eat, go get them yourself. I don’t have the time to wander around aimlessly with you.”
The vegetables Ye Ling was talking about weren't ordinary vegetables, at least on par with mythical beasts.
“I was just saying,” Ye Ling muttered.
She did know where to find delicious vegetables, but unfortunately, Ye Kong wouldn't go, and she couldn't pick them alone.
Ye Kong was too lazy to pay attention to Ye Ling, focusing on cooking.
When dinner was ready, Lin Yaoyao and the others were already obediently sitting at the dining table, waiting.
“Do we still need to eat?” Wang Xuan couldn't help but ask.
“Although we don't need to eat, who can resist Master's delicious cooking?” Mu Qianqian said with a smile.
“Oh,” Wang Xuan understood.
When Ye Kong brought out the dishes one by one, everyone's eyes were filled with longing.
The food was garnished with Spirit Wind Fruit, and they had tasted it before, knowing it was unforgettable.
“Let's eat, don't be polite!” Ye Kong said with a smile, taking his seat at the head of the table.
Then, the others, who had been waiting impatiently, began to gobble it up.
This was a tradition of Xiaoyao Peak: Ye Kong would cook a delicious meal for every new disciple.
Of course, occasionally Ye Kong would take a trip to the Desolate Forbidden Land and bring back some meat.
Ye Kong ate very little, mostly watching his disciples eat.
“After you finish eating, remember to wash the dishes. Also, whoever is free tomorrow, take Wang Xuan to the Star River Sect for a tour, so he can get familiar with it sooner,” Ye Kong said to the disciples who were eating meat.
“Me!” Ye Qingjun raised her hand.
As soon as she raised her hand, the meat in her plate was snatched away by Xiaobai.
“Okay, it’s you then!” Ye Kong said, placing his chopsticks in front of Xiaobai.
“You've eaten enough, leave some for your junior brothers and sisters,” Ye Kong said, annoyed.
Xiaobai, with his mouth full of meat, said unclearly, “Master… I’m still… not full.”
“You can’t let the little ones go hungry, even if you're still hungry!”
Ye Kong glared at Xiaobai and said, “You’ve already eaten a lot.”
Saying that, Ye Kong patted Xiaobai's little belly.
“Your stomach is already bulging, watch your diet!”
“That’s right!” Lin Yaoyao echoed from the side, then distributed the food to each junior brother and sister, except for Xiaobai.
This made Xiaobai feel wronged and want to cry.
After the meal, everyone went back to rest, leaving a mess behind.
The bones were taken away by Erha, and the plates were licked clean by Xiaobai.
Xiaobai, who had no meat to eat, could only lick the plates.
After they went back, Ye Kong returned to his room to rest.
But Ye Ling appeared beside him.
“Don’t you have a place to live yourself?” Ye Kong said unhappily.
“Ye Kong, Mu Qianyuan told me something just now, and I don't know if I should tell you,” Ye Ling said.
“You shouldn’t,” Ye Kong interrupted Ye Ling directly.
Ye Ling: …
“I’m going to say it anyway!”
“I’m not listening, I’m not listening, blah blah blah!”
Ye Kong reached out and covered his ears, not wanting to listen.
Ye Kong glanced at the space beside him, shook his head, and said nothing.
“It’s so good to be an Earth Mother, being a Spirit is tiring,” Ye Kong shook his head and said.
Hong made Ling an Earth Mother for a lifetime, concealing her true identity and giving her a very high position, allowing her to get whatever she wanted.
Now that she knew her true identity, she seemed to understand something.
Ye Kong didn't know if her understanding was good or bad.
But for now, it seemed to be a mixed bag.
After taking a look at Ye Ling, Ye Kong closed his eyes and went to sleep.
…
The next day.
It wasn't until noon that Ye Qingjun took Wang Xuan to stroll around the Star River Sect.
“Junior Brother, just take whatever you want, Xiaoyao Peak has no shortage of money,” Ye Qingjun said grandly.
When the people of the Star River Sect saw Ye Qingjun strolling around with a young man, they knew that Ye Kong had taken in another disciple.
“I don’t want anything,” Wang Xuan shook his head and, looking at the various people, asked, “Are they all my senior brothers and sisters?”
Ye Qingjun looked at them and said, “No, they are your junior brothers and sisters!”
“Although you joined later, Xiaoyao Peak has a high status.”
Hearing this, Wang Xuan immediately understood.
After Ye Qingjun took Wang Xuan for a stroll around the Star River Sect, she climbed to the top of a tall building and casually pointed her hand.
“Everything you see is the territory that Xiaoyao Peak has conquered!”
“Even the places you can’t see have a lot of territory belonging to Xiaoyao Peak.”
Most of Lianyuan Continent and Nanyun Continent were conquered by Xiaoyao Peak, so Ye Qingjun dared to say this.
Golden light emanated from Wang Xuan's eyes, and he saw monks and demons.
“I saw bald people and demons. Do they also belong to Xiaoyao Peak?” Wang Xuan asked.
“This…” Ye Qingjun said somewhat awkwardly, “Don’t look at those places, those places haven’t been conquered yet.”
“But it will be soon. When Eldest Senior Sister breaks through to the Venerable realm, we can continue our conquest!”
“Mm,” Wang Xuan nodded.
After Ye Qingjun took her junior brother for a walk, she returned to Xiaoyao Peak in the evening.
“Junior Brother, let me tell you, Xiaoyao Peak has rules. Senior brothers and sisters are not allowed to attack each other randomly,” Ye Qingjun reminded him.
She was afraid that Wang Xuan would be influenced by Xiaobai and become arrogant.
“But didn’t Senior Brother Xiaobai care for me?” Wang Xuan was a little puzzled.
“That’s why Senior Brother Xiaobai is often beaten,” Ye Qingjun said.
Wang Xuan seemed to understand a little.
Attacking senior brothers and sisters will result in being beaten.
“Alright, you’ve seen it, you’ve understood what you need to understand. Go back and rest well, and follow Eldest Senior Sister to cultivate tomorrow.”
“Or you can find Senior Brother Xiaoyao and Senior Brother Wuxin, they will guide you,” Ye Qingjun continued.
Wang Xuan asked, puzzled, “Can’t I find other people?”
“Junior Sister Xiaoqing won’t pay attention to you, Senior Sister Qianqian can’t teach you, and Ji Changsheng and Chen Haoran haven’t fully learned it yet,” Ye Qingjun explained.
“As for Hongxue and I, even less so.”
After listening, Wang Xuan nodded, then cupped his hands and thanked her, “Thank you for your guidance, Senior Sister.”
Ye Qingjun showed the smile of an elder, patted Wang Xuan's shoulder, and then said, “You’re welcome, we are all senior brothers and sisters.”
“Mm,” Wang Xuan nodded.
