The awkward atmosphere spread around them, and Yun Xiaoxi's face turned a cute shade of red as she sat there holding the hilt of her slender sword, feeling helpless and not daring to look at Ye Yang.
Ye Yang was no better off, pondering what to do after unexpectedly kissing the disciple of Serene Gate. If the legendary leader of Serene Gate, Fox Moon, came down to seek revenge for their favorite disciple, he might not survive even with his cultivation level. Even if Zeng Xuan from Starry Sky Sixth Level helped him, it would still be difficult to defeat Fox Moon. After all, Serene Gate had managed to stand firm in a chaotic world filled with evil forces, and this legendary leader must possess extraordinary abilities, with a cultivation level at least at Starry Sky Seventh Level, or perhaps even beyond that, reaching a realm Ye Yang had never even imagined—one that could easily overpower him.
...
"Woo..."
Beside them, Yan Yao suddenly let out a soft sigh, breaking the almost oppressive awkwardness. She opened her eyes and took a long breath, her clothes fluttering slightly as True Qi surrounded her without wind, as if expressing something. Her beautiful eyes sparkled with vitality, and her cultivation had improved significantly.
Ye Yang's eyes lit up, unable to contain his smile. "Yan Yao, congratulations! You've finally reached the highest level of Earth Realm—Earth Level Nine! You're just a step away from Stellar Realm!"
"Oh, really?"
Yan Yao blinked in disbelief at her own achievement of reaching Earth Level Nine. She performed the Open Hand technique and slightly exerted herself to gather True Qi. Indeed, a faint purple glow of True Qi appeared, which was characteristic of Earth Level Nine True Qi.
"Wow, brother! I really advanced to Earth Level Nine!"
Yan Yao exclaimed joyfully and immediately hugged Ye Yang. He smirked and gently patted her back. "Alright, your True Qi is a bit chaotic right now. Take some time to adjust. When dawn breaks and the stream catches fire, I'll go hunt something for us. After breakfast, we'll set off towards the center of Azure Cloud Mountain Range!"
"Mm, okay!" Yun Xiaoxi nodded eagerly.
...
Ye Yang sheathed the Azure Soul Sword behind him, put on his battle boots, and stepped out of the tent. He couldn't help but glance back at the fragrant place they spent the night in, still savoring the memories.
Just then, Yun Xiaoxi lifted the curtain and came out. Seeing Ye Yang staring at the tent made her blush again as she scolded playfully, "Are you still looking? Do you want to..."
Ye Yang smiled lightly and said, "Little Stream?"
"Uh-huh?"
"You look really beautiful today..."
"Go away..."
"Oh..."
Clearly, Yun Xiaoxi had been following her master in Serene Mountain for a long time, without touching on matters of love between men and women. The teachings from Fox Moon, that old maid, were probably just the same old theories. Therefore, Yun Xiaoxi had long buried the thought of "the common people are most important" deep in her heart. This kind of intimacy with Ye Yang was something she couldn't accept at the moment. Although her heart was wavering, she couldn't let go of her modesty.
Ye Yang understood this and didn't mind; he obediently went off to hunt in the mountains.
...
"Bang!"
He flew low and landed steadily on top of a towering giant tree. The view was expansive, and in the distance, a Seven-Stage Monster Python was coiling around a Bison, opening its massive jaws to devour it. However, the Bison was enormous and had a pair of sharp horns; even if it were swallowed whole, the python would likely not fare well.
Both the python and the Bison had heavy tastes; they weren't suitable for breakfast. Moreover, since Yun Xiaoxi and Yan Yao were both naturally beautiful Beauties, they couldn't eat meat every day, as that would make them gain weight. This was something Ye Yang didn't want to see. After all, these two girls had been accompanying him, and it was better for them to look good.
Continuing forward, a babbling stream flowed through the middle of the jungle, where several Azure Wind Antelopes were drinking water. In the distance, a Sixth-Stage Beast Brain-Eater was crawling through the grass, its brown eyes filled with murderous intent. Suddenly, it launched an attack; with lightning-fast claws, it pierced the neck of an Azure Wind Antelope, shaking its head as it held on tightly. When the Azure Wind Antelope died, it began to eat right by the riverbank.
Ye Yang frowned. Although Azure Wind Antelope was delicious, eating it every meal would become monotonous. Yan Yao, being a princess, naturally had a chef who could prepare various dishes. Now that she was out with him, she was suffering; as her older brother, he couldn't let his sister be too wronged in this regard.
Thinking of this, Ye Yang grinned and continued flying forward in search of new prey.
In the fields, a gentle breeze swayed, and suddenly, Ye Yang's eyes were fixed on a green plant that had floated down. Unable to contain his laughter, he said, "Oh, there's this here..."
It was a vibrant green wild vegetable. While others might not recognize it, Ye Yang knew it well; this was actually the legendary Lettuce!
After a moment of contemplation, Ye Yang devised a plan. He decided to prepare a reliable breakfast and take on the role of chef for once. He couldn't let the two girls eat nothing but barbecue and flatbreads every day; that kind of diet was too detrimental and could lead to breakouts.
...
He quickly pulled up the Lettuce, but just as he did, a sudden chill swept behind him—a Brain Eater had launched a surprise attack!
"Seeking death!"
Ye Yang shouted lowly, turning without hesitation to deliver a palm strike. Flames surged between his hands as he unleashed a powerful blow, instantly roasting the Brain Eater to perfection. With a thud, it fell to the ground, the smell of burnt fur wafting through the air, likely attracting other beasts soon.
Soaring in mid-air, Ye Yang floated forward and found several more Lettuce plants, carefully cradling them in his arms without being careless.
Next, he reached the edge of the forest and unleashed a gust of wind that struck an Azure Wind Antelope. Not wanting much, he simply drew his sword and sliced off the tenderest meat from its front leg, wrapping it in leaves. Then he sensed Yun Xiaoxi's presence and swiftly took off, arriving before her in less than a minute.
"Thud!"
He landed steadily and grinned widely. "Xiaoxi, I'm back!"
Yun Xiaoxi glanced at the greens in his arms and couldn't help but smile. "Oh, you prepared breakfast for me and Yan Yao?"
"It'll be ready soon; I promise it's something you've never tasted before!"
"Oh really?" Yun Xiaoxi's beautiful eyes sparkled with anticipation as she adjusted her skirt and stood beside Ye Yang. "I've gathered firewood; let's get started. I'm so hungry..."
"Okay, got it, very soon!"
...
After stoking the fire, Ye Yang infused a strand of Fire God Fragment True Qi into the flames to raise the temperature. He then took out an iron pot, added oil and salt, selected a piece of green vegetable, and placed it in. He cut a few pieces of fresh Azure Wind Antelope Meat and put them in as well, starting to cook a delicious breakfast soup.
Next, he used the Azure Soul Sword to repeatedly roast three slices of fresh Azure Wind Antelope Meat over the flames. This time he was very meticulous about grilling the meat, adding cumin, chili, and other spices. Soon, a fragrant aroma filled the air.
Yan Yao and Yun Xiaoxi watched eagerly as Ye Yang busied himself. Their understanding of this Eastern General deepened; besides being handsome, cool, and smart, he was also a cook. It seemed they had indeed underestimated him before!
At that moment, Ye Yang surprised them again by pulling out several flatbreads from his Cosmic Bag. He cut one of the flatbreads in half, placed washed Lettuce on it, wrapped it around the fragrant grilled Azure Wind Antelope Meat, and then handed this "strange" wrap to Yun Xiaoxi with a smile, saying, "Want to try?"
Yun Xiaoxi was taken aback: "What is this?"
Ye Yang thought for a moment: "In my hometown, this is called a hamburger..."
Yun Xiaoxi was confused: "Does Liang City have this kind of food?"
"It's not Liang City; just try it..."
Saying this, he handed another finished hamburger to Yan Yao. After taking a bite, the rich flavor of the Azure Wind Antelope Meat mixed with the fresh aroma of the Lettuce and the taste of the flatbread created a unique and delightful experience.
"Is it good?" Ye Yang asked.
Yun Xiaoxi nodded repeatedly: "Wow, it tastes really good! Zi Yu, you should definitely open a restaurant in Xianyang or Linzi; your business would surely thrive. By the way, is this hamburger really something from your hometown? Your hometown isn't Xianyang; where is it then?"
Ye Yang paused for a moment and said: "My hometown is very far away; it takes a long time to get there..."
"How far is it? Can't we just fly over?"
"No, it takes two thousand years to get there..."
At this, Yun Xiaoxi showed a look of longing and smiled, "Zi Yu, we can live for thousands more years. We can walk for two thousand years, and after we reach your hometown, we can eat this every day..."
Ye Yang looked at Yun Xiaoxi's hopeful and beautiful face and couldn't help but smile, "Xiaoxi, you really have high aspirations. Walking two thousand years just to eat this thing?"
"Is that not okay?"
"It is!"
Ye Yang also grabbed a Stronghold burger, took a bite, and found it quite tasty. The fresh lettuce combined with the wild Azure Wind Antelope Meat was indeed something not available in modern times.
Afterward, the group had some soup, extinguished the fire, and packed up the tent.
They continued their journey deeper into the Azure Cloud Mountain Range!
