YM778.TV Chapter 559 - The Scum Is Satisfied
Everyone was surprised when they heard his answer. They never expected for Wu Lian to learn his cooking skills from Wu Yuan! They thought it could be from Sun Yi, or even Sun Rong since Sun Rong owns the best, biggest, and most famous inn in the Zhongyang.
But, he actually learned from Wu Yuan? They thought and their lips twitched when they recalled Wu Yuan\'s expressionless face, to which Wu Lian also learned. Then, they realized that Wu Lian\'s personality is exactly the same as Wu Yuan\'s. Is he trying to copy his father?
"Father always cooked for dad and wanted to give the best to dad, including foods so he served only the best dishes to dad." Wu Lian spoke.
Everyone in the venue heard what Wu Lian said and they all turned to look at Wu Yuan whose face remained expressionless albeit his adoptive son exposed him. Meanwhile, Sun Yi wore a very sweet and extremely satisfied smiled.
"Ehem." Xie Lan coughed and patted Wu Lian\'s back. "Don\'t worry. Don\'t feel ashamed. I also cook for Wen Wen." He told him.
The other sect leaders. "…" why are we fed dog food again?! And twice! They thought.
Qian Shan heartily laughed. "I also cook for my wife. I can understand what you feel to give the best for our beloved, no matter whatever it is. As long as we can please them!" He told Wu Yuan.
"En." Wu Yuan nodded.
Jing Rui whose foods are being personally cooked by Jing Cheng. "…" so this is actually what it is? He thought and looked at Jing Cheng\'s direction before he averted his gaze.
Sun Yu who noticed this. "…" what the hell! Can you all please just focus in the competition?! He thought.
…
Inside the special space, everyone don\'t know of their respective sect leaders\' thoughts nor are they aware that Wu Lian\'s words made some of the audience felt envious of Wu Yuan\'s and Sun Yi\'s relationship. Meanwhile, some people reflected on this and felt that they should treat their partners better.
"That\'s right… young sect leader Wu loves elder Sun very much!" they all said.
"En." A smile formed on Wu Lian\'s lips. He also felt envious of his parents\' relationship. He wonders if he also… he glanced at Chen Wu\'s direction.
"Hm?" Chen Wu muttered when he noticed Wu Lian\'s gaze. Then, he smiled at him.
Wu Lian lowered his gaze.
"Ah? But, what does this got to do with you learning how to cook?" He Shun asked.
"Because father is busy with the sect\'s matters as the leader, sometimes he fails to serve… to attend to dad." Wu Lian said.
Everyone in the venue who noticed Wu Lian\'s pause. "…" we heard it! We really heard it! What \'serve\'?! Wu Yuan, you are actually Sun Yi\'s servant, are you not?!
Wu Yuan\'s expressions remained the same while Sun Yi laughed. The elders around him, especially Chen Han, moved away from him. Chen Han helplessly smiled at Wu Yuan\'s and Sun Yi\'s antics.
…
Meanwhile, everyone inside the special space didn\'t think too much about Wu Lian\'s pause as they are more interested in his reason of learning how to cook.
"Dad once got hungry, and he doesn\'t like the dishes cooked by the servants." Wu Lian continued. "He ate some magic pills to relieve his hunger. When father returned and found out, he felt heartbroken." He said.
Everyone understood. Sun Yi got used to the taste of Wu Yuan\'s dishes so he doesn\'t like other\'s dishes.
"So, father taught me how to cook." Wu Lian spoke.
"… huh?" they all stared at him.
Chen Wu, Chen Su and Chen Yu remained silent since they already know this.
"Father blamed himself. He doesn\'t want this incident to happen again so he taught me how to cook the dishes dad likes." Wu Lian continued. "Of course, I failed at first. But, I\'d rather continuously fail than fail my father\'s expectations." He explained.
Everyone stared at him in awe, ignoring the fact that Wu Yuan forced Wu Lian to cook just for Sun Yi\'s sake! Chen Wu, Chen Su and Chen Yu wanted to cry but they can\'t. They can only look pitifully at Wu Lian, who actually thinks he isn\'t pitiful at all since he successfully recreated his father\'s dishes in the end.
Meanwhile, the others remembered Wu Lian\'s words, \'it is better to fail and continue than to fail their expectations\'. They suddenly felt more determined, and more eager to win!
…
A day passed peacefully inside the space. Some participants have earned points while some still haven\'t. Currently, the ones in the lead are the Shanliangde Sect, Zunjingde Sect, Youxiwang Sect and Xinfaxian Sect, followed by the other participants like Tang Li, Li Yan, He Shun, Qi Lan and Ling Yun. There are also Wu Tie and Jin Yu who separated from the pack since the beginning of the third stage.
There is also Ke Lu whose weapon has been picked up by Qian Meng. Who knew he actually has another weapon in store?
The Shanliangde Sect, on the other hand, finally found a base but actually didn\'t stay long in it because they immediately started to farm for points. So, their sect is the leading sect currently, as well as their disciples aside from Sun Ri, and Sun Yan. Sun Yan is transferring his points to Sun Ri for their points to be equal so that Sun Ri wouldn\'t be eliminated in the first elimination period.
Although Jing Xu, Jing De, Tang Li, Li Yan, He Shun, Qi Lan and Ling Yun have allied with the Xinfaxian Sect and Youxiwang Sect, naturally, the two sects didn\'t restrain them. It was as Chen Wu said – they don\'t need their points, to which made Ling Yun surprised. The Xinfaxian Sect and Youxiwang Sect also naturally didn\'t limit their movements thus they also started farming for points.
Jing Xu, Jing De, Tang Li, Li Yan, He Shun and Qi Lan, though it wasn\'t their intention to take for granted the kindness of these two sects, already expected that they will be not restrained by them. Thus, they happily earned some points. Of course, Fei Yinzi, Chen Wu, Wu Lian, Wen Yan and the others naturally aren\'t idle, either. After they ate their dinner, they didn\'t rest for the night and instead hunted down the demons.
The demons are harder to kill than the walking corpses that almost inexistent now. Unlike the walking corpses that have stiff movements, the demons are alive thus they have flexible bodies. Not to mention that they can think so they can launch sneak attacks against the participants, which made it difficult for the participants. Some of them naturally sustained wounds, but not to the point that it was grave.
The Qianxu Sect, Qian Meng and Qian Jue, has also earned some points but that was for saving their lives after they were used as meat shields. Ling Yun earned points when he also accidentally entered the forbidden area. After Cui Xiang has treated his foot which he sprained after he forcibly turned to avoid the demon\'s claw before, he also farmed for points thus his points increased.
Chen Wu and Wu Lian protected Chen Su and Chen Yu after they took them to kill the demons to earn points. Fei Yinzi, Wen Yan, Zhu Xi, Su Mu and Cui Xiao are with them while Su Yi and Wen Wen stayed behind to accompany Cui Xiang and to assist her when she is refining medicines. Wen Wen also isn\'t idle as he made more talismans for him to sell to the other disciples and participants.
Not only can Wen Wen and Cui Xiang make money from this, they can also continuously train their skills in alchemy like what Cheng Sheng is doing! Being a mage is really a good thing!
…
Everyone can naturally guess that the Xinfaxian Sect mages are planning to train themselves while also making money out of it and it made them both wanting to laugh and cry. These people are really very opportunistic! But, this is really a wise action!
The sect leaders glared at Xie Lan, making Xie Lan feel a sense of de ja vu. Wasn\'t this also what happened in the previous competition? It\'s just that the one mage (Cheng Sheng) now became two (Wen Wen and Cui Xiang), which made the sect leaders feel more envious of Xie Lan.
How can they also become as lucky as Xie Lan to find good seedlings like Wen Wen and Cui Xiang for being mages? They all thought. Does the Xinfaxian Sect has a good feng shui in their location? Do they have to transfer their sect to that location, too? The mages in the Xinfaxian are popping out like cabbages!
Of course, they can\'t deny the fact that the Xinfaxian Sect also produces skilled mages. Just look at Cheng Sheng. Now, there are Wen Wen and Cui Xiang, and even Su Yi who is a spell caster. It is just such a pity that no one has inherited the array drawing. Well, it is very dangerous so it is better to lose the opportunity than lose your life for it. And, they know that Xie Lan and Fan Wen are already satisfied with what they have and don\'t ask for more from their disciples.
After all, the Xinfaxian Sect is also a carefree sect.
