Chapter 2: Chapter 2. I’m Not Losing Weight Anymore
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Looking at the ingredients, as a chef who was also a cultivator and had unlocked such a magical recipe, Li Yang naturally had to make one for himself first and try it out.
Li Yang’s spirit energy gushed out, igniting a flame under the stove.
After placing the cleaned stove on the fire, Li Yang put the overnight rice into the pot.
When the rice was fully cooked, Li Yang lifted the pot and used a technique from the recipe.
By the time he finished releasing the technique, the rice grains were already distinct, like fine pearls, becoming the most suitable appearance for fried rice.
Satisfied with his work, Li Yang took out another bowl and chopsticks. First, he beat a few fire-patterned eggs into them. Holding the chopsticks in his right hand, he gathered his spirit Qi according to his special meridians.
This process was also an essential point in the recipe. Its purpose was to break the egg apart and add spiritual energy ultimately.
When Li Yang stopped, the egg in the bowl had wholly changed its appearance. It looked like a bowl of melted gold!
At this point, the ingredients for the golden egg fried rice were ready.
Li Yang started the fire again. When the bottom of the pot was heated entirely, he poured in the right amount of oil and put in the cold overnight rice. As he stir-fried, the spiritual energy continued to gather in the pot. A green smoke rose, and the spiritual energy gathered again in Li Yang’s arm.
After stir-frying for about a minute, Li Yang, who had his hand free, sprinkled the beaten egg liquid evenly into the pan while his other hand continued to stir-fry.
With the help of the flame, a lot of egg liquid seeped into each grain of rice, turning them into golden particles—the extra eggs condensed and decorated the fried rice.
Just like that, the input of spiritual energy was maintained. After about five minutes, Li Yang stopped stir-frying and sent the last spiritual energy into the pot.
A wisp of smoke rose, accompanied by a strange fragrance, even though it had not been more than an hour since dinner.
Li Yang subconsciously swallowed his saliva. An inexplicable sense of hunger suddenly appeared in Li Yang’s stomach!
The light smoke seemed to have a life of its own as it slithered out of the window in front of Li Yang with a fragrant scent.
A not-so-dazzling sword light was quietly passing by in the sky above the mountain village.
“Ai, so annoying. Why must I only be able to abstain from eating after I reach the Foundation Stage? I’ve gained weight after going to the canteen and eating so much daily.”
Jiang Huanyue sat on the spiritual treasure with a chubby face. She supported her cheek with one hand, which was quite plump.
At a young age, Jiang Huanyue was already at Level 8 Qi cultivation realm. However, as her cultivation grew, spirit Qi filled her body, causing her Qi and blood to surge and her appetite to increase.
Jiang Huanyue, who wasn’t a foundation-building cultivator, couldn’t eliminate the inedia of ordinary food. She could only eat as much as possible to replenish her qi and blood. However, the result of this was that her once pretty oval face had become increasingly rounder.
Jiang Huanyue immediately made up her mind to lose weight. However, losing weight was too painful for a foodie.
Jiang Huanyue prepared to go to the forest outside the outer sect to relax.
As Jiang Huanyue was wandering, a strange fragrance, along with a cloud of smoke, suddenly came to her.
She sniffed the air with her small nose, and a crystal trace appeared on the side of her mouth.
“It smells so good! What’s this smell? Who’s cooking?”
At that moment, Jiang Huanyue felt all the hunger she had accumulated burst out when the fragrance entered her nose!
Jiang Huanyue swallowed her saliva with difficulty and immediately forgot about losing weight!
“I’d rather die of obesity; I want to eat this meal today! At most, I won’t eat for three days after returning!”
At this moment, Li Yang, who was in the kitchen, had just served himself a bowl of golden egg fried rice. Looking at the golden egg fried rice, which looked like gold beads intertwining with each other, Li Yang immediately prepared to move his chopsticks.
Apetite figure suddenly pushed open the kitchen door and rushed in.
“You made this meal? It’s too fragrant!”
Hearing Jiang Huanyue’s voice and seeing her staring at him as if she wanted to jump into the pot, Li Yang smiled and handed over a clean bowl and chopsticks.
“Since my Senior Sister doesn’t mind, try my cooking. It’s just nice to be hot.”
“Then I won’t be polite!”
Jiang Huanyue didn’t even think about it. Her little mind was like a drum that was beating. She quickly put the rice into the bowl and squatted beside Li Yang without any care for her image.
Li Yang hadn’t touched his chopsticks, but Jiang huanyue’s bowl was empty. She stood up and got herself a second bowl.
The pot was already clean when Li Yang finished his golden egg fried rice.
Jiang Huanyue held the bowl with a slight blush on her face. She returned to her ladylike appearance and smiled at Li Yang politely.
“This … Junior Brother, thank you for your hospitality, your cooking skills are too good. I’ve often been to the outer 72 peaks, and no head chef cooks better than you!”
“Senior Sister, you’re welcome. I’m usually on duty at the Divine Sword Peak cafeteria. If you’re free, you can come for a meal.”
Li Yang said with a smile.
Hearing Li Yang’s words, Jiang Huanyue stood up and chuckled. Then, a trace of regret appeared on her delicate face.
“Junior Brother, you’re on duty at the Divine Sword Peak? I’ll remember that. Sigh, I envy the senior brothers and sisters at the Divine Sword Peak ….”
“In the future, Senior Sister, you can often come to the Divine Sword Peak’s cafeteria for meals. However, it would be best if you came early. After all, there are many people on the Divine Sword Peak.”
Li Yang said with a smile.
“Of course, of course. In the future, if you’re on duty, I’ll be the first to come to the Divine Sword Peak cafeteria!
After eating the golden egg fried rice, the word ‘Lose weight’ was no longer in Jiang Huanyue’s mind. All she could think about was how to grab a seat at the Divine Sword Peak’s restaurant.
The two of them chatted for a while.
Li Yang then closed his eyes slowly.
A notification sound rang in Li Yang’s ears.
[ Congratulations, the golden egg fried rice has been tasted by one person. Vitality +2, root bone +2 ]
Following the system’s notification, Li Yang’s panel appeared.
‘As long as I keep cooking like this, I’ll be able to catch up to those geniuses one day!’
Li Yang sighed as he felt the slight but real increase in his vitality.
