I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

Chapter 285: We Understand

She held the Cloud Needles.

The tofu was black and covered with sauce. It was scary to look at.

Ziye went even paler. She panicked. Was she going to eat such a hideous thing?

She knew that Li Nianfan was looking at her.

Ziye looked away and opened her cherry lips.

“Miss...”

Taoist Xinghe’s jaws were wide open. He disregarded the surrounding stench and stared dead at her. His eyes were red from tearing up.

‘Miss, sorry for my incompetence. I can’t help you!

‘You’re making such a huge sacrifice!’

Taoist Xinghe blamed himself. He watched as the Seventh Princess ate that thing.

‘Huh?’

Ziye arched her eyebrow.

She was ready for the disgusting taste. She was ready to wash her mouth out with water.

However, once the tofu was in her mouth, the stench disappeared. Not only did it disappear, it also tasted quite nice. She jumped from excitement.

‘This...

‘Is there something wrong with my taste palette?’

She relaxed and chewed.

Crunch!

The outside part of the tofu was crispy!

She moved her mouth and her furrowed brows relaxed. The taste was in contrast with the stench.

The tofu was crispy on the outside but soft and tender on the inside. The white tofu slipped inside her mouth, fresh and delicious. The taste of the Stinky Tofu did not match up with its appearance.

Ziye observed the hideous thing again. She took another bite...

“Miss!” Taoist Xinghe was stumped. His mouth was ‘O’ shaped.

‘Why is she devouring it? Does she like it?

‘Perhaps the Seventh Princess has gone crazy from eating it?’

He wanted to stop her but it was too late.

Ziye’s mouth was stuffed. She continued to chew as crunching could be heard while black sauce dripped out from the corner of her mouth. It was visually impactful for Taoist Xinghe.

‘No!

‘Seventh Princess, be reasonable!

‘Do you have any idea what you’re eating?’ Taoist Xinghe screamed internally.

Ziye did not have time to acknowledge him. The deliciousness of the Stinky Tofu was intense because it was freshly fried. The outer layer was crispy and hot. The tofu itself was hotter. Hot, spicy, smooth, and tasty. The flavor exploded in her mouth.

Gulp.

She swallowed the delicacy.

She seemed unsatisfied. She slowly licked the sauce from the corner of her mouth.

Taoist Xinghe was mind blown. He could not believe his eyes. He was baffled and stiff like a statue.

Li Nianfan, on the other hand, smiled. He enjoyed what he watched. He asked, “Goddess Ziye, how was it? I didn’t lie to you, right?”

Ziye was pleasantly surprised. She said truthfully, “It’s delicious. Thanks for the treat, Mr. Li. I did like it very much.”

She did not know how to describe what she felt.

It was too sudden.

‘It smells so disgusting but it’s delicious to the taste. This is a weird concept. How can a weird delicacy like this exist?

‘It goes against the Laws of Nature!’

“Haha, good. Feel free to have some more.” Li Nianfan gave Ziye another piece of tofu. Then, he gave one to Taoist Xinghe and said, “Taoist Xinghe, you should try one, too. I swear you’ll like it.”

Taoist Xinghe gave up. Since the Seventh Prince ate it, he should eat it, too.

He took a bite. Instantly, he widened his eyes in disbelief.

‘How could this thing taste so delicious? The taste doesn’t match the appearance at all!’

Then, he ate the entire piece and chewed it in his mouth. He started to squint his eyes from enjoyment.

‘Of course. How could things be what they seem at the expert’s?

‘I’m too naïve. This is probably a mental test set by the expert.’

Ziye had to ask, “Mr. Li, how did you make this delicacy?”

“It’s just tofu.” Li Nianfan pointed at Xiao Bai. “Look over there, Xiao Bai’s grinding the tofu.”

Ziye and Taoist Xinghe looked over and jumped. They did not dare to look again.

Xiao Bai was grinding soybeans.

They knew how powerful Xiao Bai was. Also, the soybeans were Spiritual Beans!

A powerful Spiritual Robot bigshot grinding Spiritual Beans. They did not dare to imagine such an impactful combo.

“It’s best to drink some milkshake after eating Stinky Tofu.”

Li Nianfan smiled and told Xiao Bai, “Xiaobai, stop grinding and bring us some Strawberry Milkshakes.”

Xiao Bai immediately replied, “Yes, my noble Master.”

Soon, Xiao Bai came over with a tray of milkshakes.

The pink milkshakes quietly rested in beautiful transparent glasses. It had a sheen under the sunlight. It looked perfectly desirable in color.

A long straw was placed in the milkshake. It was the perfect touch.

“Thank, thanks.” Ziye carefully took the milkshake from Xiao Bai. It felt cool to the touch.

She sneakily looked at Li Nianfan and the others. Then, she followed what they were doing. She gracefully held the straw and sipped on it.

Then, she automatically sucked.

Slurp!

The milkshake went into her mouth. The liquid burst and splashed in every corner.

Suddenly, she had to close her eyes. Her whole body slightly trembled.

It was sweet and sour!

The two delicious flavors were perfect for each other. She never tasted anything like that before.

“Wow—” she moaned softly.

The leftover stink from the Stinky Tofu was immediately washed away by the milkshake.

Ziye was blushing. She slowly closed her eyes and enjoyed every second and every inch of the moment.

She had to admit. The Stinky Tofu and the milkshake were a perfect combination. One was hot and crispy, the other was cold and sweet. Her palette was teased and she was feeling eccentric from the sensation.

Ziye felt emotional. She suddenly teared up.

The milk from the Five-Color-Sacred Cow and the juice of the Spiritual Strawberries. Such luxurious delicacies reminded her of the previous Heavenly Palace.

She missed that era. An era of expensive food, ambrosia, flat peaches, and Spiritual Fruits. What a glorious era.

She was lucky enough to eat something more luxurious than the delicacies from the Heavenly Palace. She felt emotional. It was as if she was dreaming.

Dragin sipped on some fruit juice. She sat on a stone bench and said, “Brother, you haven’t told us the story yet.”

“Yeah,” Nanan said, instantly realizing it. She said excitedly, “We can drink milkshakes while listening to Brother Nianfan’s story.”

The little fox could not use the straw. She licked the inside of the glass with her tongue while looking at Li Nianfan with excitement.

Li Nianfan was slightly surprised. Then, he frowned and asked, “Nonsense. Don’t you see we have guests here?”

‘Story?’

Ziye remembered that ‘Journey to the West’ was a story of the expert.

‘Maybe the expert is talking about stories from eldritch eras?’

She thought about that and was excited. She could not control herself.

She hurriedly relaxed and said in a trembling voice, “Mr. Li, it’s alright. I love listening to stories.”

Taoist Xinghe also said, “Yeah. Mr. Li, I read all your chapters of ‘Journey to the West’.”

Li Nianfan was slightly speechless.

‘Journey to the West’ was written by Wu Chengen.

‘How does everyone know this story was recited by me? Damn, I have a gossiper around me!’

“Since you all want to hear it, I shall tell the story.”

Li Nianfan groaned for a moment. Then, he said, “However, let me be clear. This is just a story. All the Gods, Immortals, Demons or whatever are all fictional.”

Everyone hurriedly nodded. They were excited. “Yeah, we understand!”
