#977 - Chapter 977 Bad Idea
Only after the fifteen disciples had gathered did the formal meal begin.
Xingchen Lan sat in a position not far from Ye Kong.
Ye Kong felt that Xingchen Lan must be starving after taming the Dark Shocking Spear.
Ye Kong lightly waved his chopsticks, and a large chicken leg flew into Xingchen Lan's bowl.
Xingchen Lan was stunned, then turned to look at Ye Kong.
"Thank you, Master!"
"Eat quickly."
Xingchen Lan lowered his head and ate with gusto.
After the meal, the disciples prepared to return to their respective thatched huts for a midday rest.
"Xiao Lan."
Ye Kong called out to Xingchen Lan.
"Master, what is it?"
Xingchen Lan stopped and turned around.
The Five-Colored Jade Stone and Spirit Ascension Tea that Ye Kong had obtained were both enough for fifteen people. Now that he had taken in another disciple, Ye Kong selflessly gave his own Spirit Ascension Tea to Xingchen Lan.
Looking at the small jar in his hand, Xingchen Lan couldn't help but feel touched that his master was so good to him.
"Alas!"
A sigh filled with vicissitudes of life came from behind Ye Kong.
Ye Kong turned around and saw Chen Haoran and Bai Wuchen supporting each other, looking as if they were about to burst into tears.
"Alas~ It's been so long since we've had meat roasted by Master."
Chen Haoran had been constantly muttering about roasted meat for the past few days.
"That's right~ Master probably forgot about us, these unloved disciples!"
Xiao Bai emphasized the words "unloved," like a jealous little wife.
The two of them said one sentence, then another, clearly implying something to Ye Kong.
"Master, are those Senior Brothers...?"
Xingchen Lan had never eaten meat roasted by Ye Kong before.
Ye Kong rubbed his forehead, not expecting these disciples to not give him a moment's peace.
The two thought that Xingchen Lan had never eaten meat roasted by Ye Kong, so they simply came up with an idea.
Xiao Bai pulled Xingchen Lan aside in front of Ye Kong.
"Little Junior Brother, let Senior Brother tell you, the meat roasted by Master is no ordinary meat!"
"That's right, that's right, the meat roasted by Master himself is so succulent and juicy that it bursts in your mouth with every bite. Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's a delicacy of the world."
Chen Haoran closed his eyes and described the meat that Ye Kong had roasted before, trying his best to tempt Xingchen Lan.
Hearing the two Senior Brothers' descriptions, Xingchen Lan couldn't help but swallow.
Bai Wuchen noticed the longing in Xingchen Lan's eyes, so he incited Xingchen Lan.
"Little Junior Brother, Master dotes on you so much now. If you say a few words to Master, he will definitely get you some exquisite roasted meat!"
"That's right, that's right."
Chen Haoran nodded as he echoed.
Xingchen Lan was always well-behaved, but still felt this matter was inappropriate.
Chen Haoran and Bai Wuchen secretly brainwashed Xingchen Lan again, completely forgetting that Ye Kong, who hadn't left yet, was behind them.
Ye Kong was now crossing his arms, and had already heard the three people's whispers with his divine sense.
Ye Kong thought that the disciples had done many things recently, and it had indeed been a long time since he had roasted meat for them.
Since Xingchen Lan had joined the Carefree Peak, he might as well make a barbecue.
"Stop trying to incite your little junior brother. This master knows what you're thinking."
Ye Kong walked past the three of them, leaving a sentence behind.
"Wait for an extra meal tomorrow!"
The three turned around, and Ye Kong's elegant figure had already disappeared.
"What did Master just say?"
Chen Haoran asked Bai Wuchen again, as if he wasn't sure.
"Master said, an extra meal tomorrow!"
Xingchen Lan spoke first.
Bai Wuchen and Chen Haoran smiled at each other, their goal achieved!
"Clap!"
The two clapped to celebrate.
Then the two prepared to leave, leaving behind Xingchen Lan with a calm expression.
"Little Junior Brother, wait for tomorrow's delicious feast."
Bai Wuchen didn't forget to leave a sentence for Xingchen Lan as he left.
Xingchen Lan smiled slightly.
Ye Kong returned to his thatched hut, kicked his legs, and lay directly on the bed, in a standard lazy posture.
Lying down after a meal is better than being a living immortal~
Ye Kong shook his little finger, and a flash of light appeared on his hand. A map of the cultivation world appeared in front of Ye Kong.
Ye Kong looked at the small mountain piles on the map and didn't know where to get beast meat for his disciples for a while.
Just as Ye Kong was pondering, a small bright spot appeared in the upper left corner of the map.
"Ding~ The Boreal Continent's Dire Beast Forbidden Zone!"
The system issued a mission.
"Dire Beast Forbidden Zone?"
Ye Kong was ignorant and didn't know what the Dire Beast Forbidden Zone was.
Before the system could answer Ye Kong, there was a knock on the door, "Knock~ Knock, knock."
Ye Kong got up, waved his little hand, and the cultivation world map was immediately put into his storage ring.
Opening the door, Lin Yaoyao appeared in front of Ye Kong.
"Master, a disciple from the Star River Sect has come to report that the peak masters of each peak are to go to the Star River Sect immediately."
Lin Yaoyao reported the situation truthfully.
"Oh~ Summoning the peak masters of each peak, did they say what it was about?"
Lin Yaoyao recalled for a moment, then shook her head. Ye Kong immediately understood, tidied up for a while, and then flew on his sword towards the Great Hall of the Wise Gathering of the Star River Sect.
"Swoosh~"
Ye Kong's Crimson Sky Sword cut through the long sky.
Ye Kong had already seen the shadow of the Great Hall of the Wise Gathering in the clouds, and was about to cast a spell to accelerate when a voice sounded from behind.
"Ye Kong!"
The familiar voice made Ye Kong turn his head.
It was the peak master of the Martial Dao Peak, Xiao Wu!
"I didn't expect you to come too."
At the last Xuanwu Assembly, the Martial Dao Peak was originally going to be the perennial champion, but unexpectedly, the Carefree Peak came out halfway and directly became the winner of the Xuanwu Assembly. Since then, Xiao Wu had always disliked Ye Kong and the Carefree Peak.
"Why can't I come?"
What's the matter, are you looking down on people!
"Heh~ Do you think your Carefree Peak can always be as lucky as it was when you participated in the Xuanwu Assembly."
Xiao Wu left a sentence and quickly flew towards the Great Hall of the Wise Gathering.
Ye Kong felt that this Xiao Wu was strange, and then also cast a spell to increase his spiritual power and flew towards the Great Hall of the Wise Gathering.
In the Great Hall of the Wise Gathering, the peak masters gathered together.
"Hey, the Sect Master called us all here. Is there something big going on?"
The Spirit Heart Peak's peak master, like Ye Kong, didn't know what was going on.
"Who knows? The Sect Master has always said things face-to-face. We can only wait for the Sect Master to come before we know what's going on."
Sect Master Liu Ruyan of the Myriad Flowers Sect said.
Everyone still wanted to chat a few words.
"Whoosh~"
Luo Yangtian descended from the sky. Ye Kong looked at the ceiling of the hall. Where did this person jump out from?
Luo Yangtian landed steadily on the seat on the five-tiered steps, and the others consciously closed their mouths.
Seeing that all nine peak masters had arrived, Luo Yangtian was ready to begin announcing the matter.
"Ahem, everyone, the reason I've summoned everyone here today is because the Dire Beast Forbidden Zone of the Boreal Continent is about to open. Who will represent our Star River Sect to go?"
!!
Ye Kong's eyes flashed when he heard "Dire Beast Forbidden Zone."
The eyes of the other peak masters all dodged.
The Dire Beast Forbidden Zone only opened once every fifty years. In the years before Ye Kong was in charge, the peak masters of the other peaks had all actively participated. It's just that the results were not very ideal. Some disciples in the sect were useless. Half of them were seriously injured, and countless died.
Now, hearing that the Dire Beast Forbidden Zone was about to open, the other peak masters all had previous lessons learned. For the sake of the sect's interests, the peak masters were all carefully considering.
