In the dead of night within De Yue Building. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Master Jiu, didn’t you say that Master Ji was bound to die this time? How come he’s still well and even spoiled my plans?"

Master Chen was furious, his face flushed with anger.

He had already made plans that once Master Ji died, he would take over Taoyao Pavilion.

De Yue Building had been stuck as a Three-star Spiritual Restaurant for many years, operating on a small scale. If he could take over Taoyao Pavilion, which was also a Three-star Spiritual Restaurant, it could advance to a Four-star Spiritual Food Restaurant, and his own status as a Spiritual Delicacy Master could also rise.

Yet, all those plans were ruined.

"I find it odd too, how he survived. The leech eggs inside his stomach have been cleared by someone, apart from being a bit weak, he has no other issues. Earlier, the Master Ji I had bribed has also disappeared without a trace and can’t be contacted."

Today, when Master Ji appeared, Master Jiu, who was hiding in De Yue Building, had already noticed.

He was observing in the shadows and found that Master Ji had recovered without treatment.

Not a single one of his leech eggs remained.

This was no small matter.

Could it be that someone secretly helped and cleared the parasites from his body?

But Master Jiu had inquired clearly that there were no such experts in Purple Cloud City.

This was also something Master Jiu couldn’t figure out.

"Without Master Ji’s death, I won’t pay the compensation."

Master Chen said, huffing angrily.

A thousand Intermediate Qi Stones were not a small number.

Even for a large establishment like De Yue Building, it might not have that much income after several years.

Master Chen this time, in order to completely remove Taoyao Pavilion, Master Ji, and that troublesome Chu’s Restaurant, had really invested heavily.

"I have already helped you get the Phoebe Wood Sign, you at least need to pay fifty percent of the Qi Stones, otherwise, don’t blame me for being unkind."

Master Jiu’s face darkened, and with a loud slap, he hit the desk.

The sturdy desk instantly turned into powder.

A chilling aura surged around.

Master Jiu’s face, which was already paler and colder than an ordinary person’s, appeared completely bloodless in the night.

Master Chen snapped to his senses, then remembered that the person before him was not an ordinary man, not someone who could be threatened with a few words.

Though he was a Four-star Spirit Chef, he was merely a Martial Artist in the early stages of the Xuan Transformation Realm.

Master Jiu’s fearsomeness was not something ordinary people could handle.

Master Chen secretly felt alarmed.

"Master Jiu, please don’t be angry. I was just impulsively agitated. Don’t worry, I will definitely gather fifty percent of the Qi Stones. But regarding Master Ji?"

Master Chen quickly switched his demeanor, showing a face eager to please.

"Rest assured, I will act in the next few days. Although his injuries are not serious, his Essence Blood is severely depleted, and he can’t even prepare Spiritual Delicacies. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have relied on that young girl to suppress you today. Compared to him, that young girl seems rather interesting."

Master Jiu said with a sinister smile, his pale face and those bloodshot-like lips looked chilling.

"Are you talking about Xin Lin, that girl? Does she really have something extraordinary?"

Master Chen also detested Xin Lin, his teeth itching with hatred.

A mere apprentice who managed to cook Braised Pork Belly and make those Delicious Spiritual Food Buns with such a flavor, undoubtedly, it must have been Xin Lin who prepared them.

If he continued to do nothing and let her learn about Spiritual Delicacies, she might surpass him in a few years!

That alone was a reason he could absolutely not allow Xin Lin to grow up; he must nip her in the bud!
