EBE Chapter 252 Satay Sauce!
Chapter 252 Satay Sauce!
Xiaoyue continued, "But what I didn't expect was that the martial arts skills of those men in black were so high."
Even if I use the secret technique and elevate my skill to the first-class level.
However, they were still no match for the men in black.
Xiaoyue's voice gradually lowered as she spoke.
Her head slowly rested on Daya's shoulder, her expression conveying a sense of helplessness.
Daya listened quietly to her words without interrupting her at all.
Xiaoyue leaned on Daya's shoulder, her eyes glistening with tears of resentment.
She asked softly, "Big Sister, you said those black-clad men in the Shadow Clan are so skilled in martial arts."
Will we ever have another chance to avenge our villagers in this lifetime?
Daya sighed softly, her tone tinged with helplessness.
"Da Ya doesn't know either. Xiao Yue, Xiao Ya once said that although we have both taken the Marrow Cleansing Pill."
However, we were not well-nourished when we were young, which resulted in poor health.
Furthermore, given that their initial aptitude was not high, even after consuming the Marrow Cleansing Pill, the improvement in their aptitude was limited.
Xiaoyue nodded slightly and continued the conversation: "Yes, she said something similar to me."
Of all of us, she said that only Xiaoman has the best chance of cultivating to the Celestial Realm.
"If the rest of us can break through to the Innate Realm, we'll already be considered top-tier figures in the martial arts world."
Daya said with deep feeling, "Yes, ever since I broke through to the first-class level."
Every time I cultivate, I feel that my internal energy is increasing very little, which is quite frustrating. Do you feel the same way?
"I don't have that feeling. Rather, it's as if I've made no progress in my cultivation over the years."
After each use up of internal energy, it returns to its original position upon recovery from cultivation.
Da Ya couldn't believe it when she heard this: "How could this be? Why didn't you say so sooner?"
Xiaoyue shook her head: "I didn't know what was going on at first, but now I roughly know some of it."
Daya asked, "What do you mean?"
Xiaoyue explained, "I feel like it's like if a cultivator at the second-rate level used this forbidden technique."
Although this cultivator has advanced to a higher realm, he will be stuck at that realm forever and will never be able to break through again.
If a top-tier cultivator uses a forbidden technique, the user might break through to the Innate Realm, and then become stuck there, and so on!
Upon hearing this, Daya couldn't help but stare wide-eyed at Xiaoyue: "Is everything you said true?"
Xiaoyue shook her head and smiled wryly, "Maybe, that's how I feel!"
Daya fell silent, and Xiaoyue also fell silent.
The two sat quietly on the rooftop for a long time before Xiaoyue softly called out, "Sister Daya!"
“Okay, go ahead,” Daya replied gently.
A glint of expectation flashed in Xiaoyue's eyes as she asked, "Do you think Xiaoya will come back?"
Daya was stunned for a moment when she heard Xiaoyue's words, but she quickly came back to her senses and looked ahead.
She nodded after what seemed like an eternity, her eyes radiating confidence.
"I believe she will definitely come back to us sooner or later!"
Xiaoyue nodded in agreement, her tone certain: "Yes, with her high level of martial arts, she must still be alive and well. We just don't know where she is now."
In contrast to the low spirits of Daya and Xiaoyue.
At the bottom of the Extreme Abyss, where the Ling Kingdom and the Gu Xuan Dynasty meet, Yun Dan remained completely unaware.
She was happily sitting with Leng Xiyue and Zhang Junbao, enjoying a hot pot meal.
A pot of steaming hot smoked food exudes an enticing aroma.
The three of them chatted and laughed as they cooked ingredients in the pot, creating a joyful atmosphere.
Over the past six years, Yun Dan's hot pot ingredients have become increasingly scarce.
If she hadn't tried her best to restrain herself later...
I'm afraid these ingredients were used up two years ago.
It was only because of Zhang Sanfeng's arrival that she was willing to take out these ingredients and have a hot pot meal or two during this month.
With a beaming smile, Yun Dan looked at Zhang Sanfeng and asked, "Junbao, what do you think of the taste of this hot pot compared to the food from the Song and Yuan dynasties?"
Zhang Sanfeng nodded slightly and said earnestly, "I don't usually eat this kind of food, but in terms of taste, it is indeed top-notch!"
Yun Dan said with a hint of pride, "The key is that this garlic sauce is the finishing touch."
Alas, it's a pity that so many materials are unavailable this time.
Otherwise, I'd do everything I could to make a pot of satay sauce to satisfy my craving!
Hearing this, Leng Xiyue asked curiously, "Little Yun Dan, you've always been thinking about that satay sauce. What does it taste like?"
Yun Dan's eyes lit up instantly, and she began to describe it vividly.
"Its taste is sweet with a hint of saltiness, and saltiness mixed with sweetness; it's quite delicious."
In short, satay sauce is my favorite when eating hot pot.
The taste, oh, the squeaking! It was indescribably wonderful!
As Leng Xiyue tasted it, she nodded and said, "Hmm, although I've never tried satay sauce before, this garlic sauce does taste pretty good!"
Yun Dan waved her hand helplessly: "The garlic sauce is quite good, but the flavor is too one-dimensional."
When I first arrived, I never imagined that garlic would be used as a medicinal herb in this world.
Back then, when I went to the pharmacy and smelled garlic, I thought someone was cooking.
It turned out that the doctor from that pharmacy was dispensing the medicine.
I wanted the doctor to sell me all the garlic in the shop, but he absolutely refused.
They even said it was a medicinal herb, and if I sold it to them, other people would have no medicine to use if they got sick.
I finally managed to get him a pound after much pleading and haggling. He's such a cheapskate!
Zhang Sanfeng smiled and shook his head: "It is not appropriate for me to discuss the state of this world at the moment."
But in our original Central Plains, this garlic has always been precious; how could you expect to get as much as you want?
Yun Dan snorted: "Tch... It's just a clove or two of garlic, yet you make it sound like a magic pill."
I even cultivated a small plot of land in the village.
It's a pity I didn't save some in my storage space, otherwise I wouldn't be able to afford hot pot only once every month or two now.
Leng Xiyue's eyes widened in surprise: "You can actually grow medicinal herbs?"
Yun Dan shrugged: "You see this kind of garlic as a medicinal herb, but to me, it's just an ingredient."
Leng Xiyue feigned reproach and said, "You little Yun Dan, the doctors all say this is a very precious medicinal herb, but you've turned it into an ordinary ingredient."
