Journey to the West: Starting by taking Sun Wukong as my disciple!-Chapter 252 Xuan Feng Meets Wukong Again
"Master, whatβs this..." Sun Wukong was a bit puzzled, was his master regretting his decision and taking back the pot? ππ£πππππππΌππ²πΉ.ππ π
"Bring chopsticks here, how am I supposed to eat with just this pot of soup served to me?"
Chen Nuo felt somewhat helpless, his disciple could be sharp as a monkey spirit one moment and cluelessly naive the next.
A trace of embarrassment flitted across Sun Wukongβs face; he had been too eager after finishing the βBuddha Jumps Over the Wallβ!
He had just been wondering why his master hadnβt started eating his dish.
"Iβll get them right away!" Sun Wukong hurried into the kitchen, not only grabbing chopsticks but also serving two bowls of rice.
He thought it would be fine to just make do with βBuddha Jumps Over the Wallβ for breakfast today.
"Iβm wondering what Nuwa needs that monkey for?"
In the sky, Xuan Feng murmured to herself while flying, Nuwa hadnβt seen outsiders for a long time, so why would she make an exception for a monkey today?
Xuan Feng was very confused.
But, after all, since Nuwa had spoken, she could only comply, though a trace of worry showed on Xuan Fengβs pretty face.
If the monkey refused to come, she had no solution, and in front of Shopkeeper Chen, she couldnβt possibly kidnap the monkey forcefully!
She felt that if she really did such a thing, Shopkeeper Chen would dare to cook her as an ingredient; it was that frightening.
She always felt that although Shopkeeper Chen didnβt press for details, he must know about her origins, and he acted as per usual even knowing a Saint backed her, which showed that Shopkeeper Chen wasnβt very afraid of Nuwa.
Considering Nuwaβs praise for Shopkeeper Chen and the Awakening abilities of Divine Skills, it was clear how unfathomable Shopkeeper Chen truly was.
Even with one hundred times the courage, she wouldnβt dare to offend him, and there were also the recipes that Nuwa instructed her to bring backβif they were not for sale, she was helpless!
Xuan Fengβs face turned bitter, extremely troubled, she could only take it one step at a time now.
Regardless of the outcome, as long as she brought back everything Nuwa wanted to eat, there shouldnβt be any major issues.
With that thought, Xuan Feng suddenly sped up, racing towards the direction of Chaos Residence.
As her true form was that of a phoenix, even in human shape, her speed was not to be underestimated, and she arrived at Chaos Residence in no time.
Xuan Feng took a deep breath and stood still for a moment, but mustered the courage to push the door and enter. As soon as she stepped in, the intoxicating fragrance enchanted her mind and spirit.
Forgetting her earlier worries, she took a deep breath, her face showing intoxication.
"What a delicious aroma!" she couldnβt help but exclaim.
Focusing her attention, she noticed Chen Nuo sitting in a chair and Sun Wukong who was tidying up the bowls and chopsticks.
Xuan Feng hurried to bow respectfully: "Xuan Feng pays her respects to Shopkeeper Chen!"
"Hmm," Chen Nuo nodded slightly, acknowledging her, but his eyes flashed with a hint of helplessness, thinking good heavens, not much later than yesterday!
Seeing the visitor, Sun Wukong also grinned, "I was wondering who it was, turns out itβs you, always in such a hurry to eat, Little Phoenix, coming so early every day!"
Did she want to come this early? It was obviously Nuwa who sent her!
Biting her lip, Xuan Feng wanted to retort, but remembering she still needed the favor of the monkey, she reluctantly gave up.
The lingering aroma continually tantalized Xuan Fengβs taste buds, causing her to swallow her saliva involuntarily and blurt out, "Shopkeeper Chen, what exactly were you eating just now?"
Before Chen Nuo could speak, Sun Wukong interjected, "This is a new dish that my master developed, βBuddha Jumps Over the Wallβ!"
A new dish?
Xuan Feng paused for a moment, recalling the new dish Tian Peng and Little Dragon had mentioned, no wonder the aroma felt somewhat familiar.
βBuddha Jumps Over the Wall,β Xuan Feng mused with a nod, finding the name quite intriguing.
A flash of excitement crossed her face as Xuan Feng looked at Chen Nuo eagerly and said, "Shopkeeper Chen! Are the new dishes already on sale?"
"That was made by me!" Sun Wukong lisped through clenched teeth, somewhat dissatisfied, after hearing Xuan Fengβs question.
"You made it?" Xuan Feng was very surprised. Hadnβt this monkey said his cooking skills were not even a tenth of Shopkeeper Chenβs, so how could it smell so good?
With his hands on his hips, Sun Wukong boasted, "Of course, it was."
He wasnβt really proud of himself; it was just that the little bird seemed to be at odds with him, and he wanted to show off deliberately.
"Pssh!" Xuan Feng pouted, turned her head away, and with her arms crossed over her chest, she said defiantly, "I donβt believe it one bit!"
With all this monkeyβs impetuousness, he seemed like he could cook, being able to properly slice a potato would be an achievement.
Chen Nuo smiled slightly and whispered, "This Buddha Jumps Over the Wall was indeed made by Wukong, as for when the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall will start selling, please stay tuned for the good news."
"How about that, huh? I told you it was made by me," Sun Wukong said with a cheeky grin, looking rather proud of himself.
In Xuan Fengβs eyes, he looked somewhat deserving of a beating, but her main concern lay elsewhere.
Xuan Fengβs face fell, and with a tone of disappointment, she said, "Thereβs still no news on the new dish!"
She had been curious ever since Tian Peng told her about the new dish. After smelling its aroma, her anticipation had grown even more, yet she still couldnβt taste it.
"Please look forward to it." Chen Nuo still had that PR-style response.
Xuan Feng sighed, but there was nothing she could do about it; after all, these were the big shots, and as a small Daluo Golden Immortal, it was better for her to keep a low profile.
"Aiyaya, this Buddha Jumps Over the Wall really is delicious; the soup tastes good, the dish is also good, truly a supreme dish among dishes!" Sun Wukongβs eyes glinted with a sly look as he smacked his lips as if reminiscing.
Upon hearing this, Xuan Fengβs mind and spirit were also somewhat captivated.
"Itβs just too bad that some bird canβt eat it!"
Xuan Feng: "..."
Ahhhhh, thatβs too much to bear!!
Xuan Feng clenched her silver teeth and her fists tightened, feeling an almost irresistible urge to flatten the insolent monkey right in front of her!
"Go clean up your bowls and chopsticks, what are you boasting about?" Chen Nuo frowned and chastised in advance; this monkey, once he got started, there was no stopping him.
"Understood, Master!"
As soon as Chen Nuo spoke, Sun Wukongβs playfulness subsided instantly, and he promptly scurried back to the kitchen.
Turning to Xuan Feng, Chen Nuo asked softly, "What would you like to order today?"
He knew very well that Xuan Fengβs orders were not just for herself; behind her, there was an important customer, Nuwa.
"Please, Shopkeeper Chen, may I have a serving of braised pork and 12 jars of Peach Blossom Brew, and then..." Xuan Feng answered respectfully.
Before she could finish speaking, Xuan Feng suddenly remembered something. Glancing at the menu on the counter, she said with a giggle, "Shopkeeper Chen, could I buy a copy of that menu?"
Chen Nuo raised an eyebrow: "What do you want my menu for?"
Even if he gave her the menu, she shouldnβt expect to be able to replicate the dishes just like that!
"Itβs for Her Majesty, she wants it to order dishes on a regular basis." Xuan Feng stammered, hesitating.
Seeing that Chen Nuo said nothing, she quickly added, "Iβll pay for it!"
Xuan Feng bit her lip, prepared for Shopkeeper Chen to ask for an exorbitant price. Even if it cost her ten drops of vital blood, she was prepared to buy it.
After all, it was Nuwaβs order, and moreover, the deficit of her vital blood could easily be replenished by Nuwa with a flick of her hand.
"Not for sale," Chen Nuo said without hesitation.
