Chapter 1820: Braised what? Did I see wrongly?

Song Shuhang smiled slightly, and replied, “Where are you? I can come pick you up.”

Although he hadn’t finished collecting the Young Master Hai three-piece set yet, he could just collect it together with Sixteen now that she was out.

Using a voice message, Su Clan’s Sixteen replied with a laugh, “I’ll go to Western Orchid Island first. You can pick me up there. I’ll call you when I’m near.”

As Song Shuhang heard this, he noticed that her voice had changed slightly. Although it was still gentle and mild, it was now lower in register, and sounded more mature.

Song Shuhang replied, “Okay, I’ll pick you up at Western Orchid Island then.”

At that time, should he make his appearance in a very handsome manner, and take Sixteen away?

Should he use the Divine Lobster’s Chariot, or perhaps the silver puppet dragon? Or maybe borrow the virtuous lamia’s virtuous fat whale?

All of these approaches were pretty good, but they could only be used in front of cultivators. At the very least, he would have to conceal them with illusions if he did use them in front of ordinary people.

If Sixteen lands directly on Western Orchid Island and appears in the middle of a crowd, I’ll have to consider using some modern means to pick her up.

For example, the several hand-guided tractors in my Inner World…

No, no, no, what the heck?!

Although hand-guided tractors are flashy, there’s no way that I can go with such an approach. Without Senior White’s looks and charms, I’m afraid that I won’t be able to bring out the excellence of a hand-guided tractor.

Hmm… Maybe I could borrow a cruise ship from Senior Tian Tiankong instead?

If not that… Well, I recently transferred horse magical beasts and camel magical beasts from the Black Dragon World into the Inner World. They look similar to ordinary horses and camels, just that they’re a bit bigger. Maybe riding them would look cool?

Using another voice message, Su Clan’s Sixteen replied, “Then, I’ll see you there.”

From the tone of her voice, she seemed to be in a rather good mood.

After finishing talking with Sixteen, Song Shuhang put away his phone, and continued flying to Heavenly Field Island with Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword.

While casually chatting about some topics with Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, he continued to use the ?Saber-Nurturing Technique? on the demonic god pillar and read up on information related to demonic cuisine.

As he traveled, he would occasionally encounter other practitioners.

Likely due to the recent Wealth Distribution event, there were a lot of cultivators who had gathered nearby, and they had not dispersed yet. There were also some who had come over to look around, checking if another Wealth Distribution would take place.

Therefore, Song Shuhang managed to see practitioners of various systems who were usually hard to come by.

Some of these practitioners would stop when they saw Song Shuhang from a distance, while some others would pay their respects with the courtesy of a junior encountering a senior.

There were also some who would make way for Song Shuhang, and wait for him to leave before continuing on their way.

But there was another portion of practitioners who, when catching sight of Song Shuhang from a distance, turned pale and sped away while tumbling-crawling.

Before escaping, Song Shuhang seemed to even hear these practitioners shouting, “It’s Tyrannical Song! Tyrannical Song is here!”

“T-Tyrannical Song!”

“Why is Tyrannical Song still here?!”

“Don’t look into Senior Tyrannical Song’s eyes…”

“I heard that Senior Tyrannical Song is already at the Tribulation Transcender Realm. It would be best to hold your breath.”

“I have special contraceptive pills on me. Would you like two? I’ve got hawthorn-flavored ones as well. I heard that hawthorn leads to miscarriage, so its effect should be better.”

Song Shuhang heard these voices speaking in various languages, filled with fear every now and then. If he hadn’t mastered the languages of many countries recently, he probably wouldn’t have understood what they were saying.

Song Shuhang’s face darkened. Gossip truly was a terrible thing.

Of course, there were occasionally some positive comments.

“However, this young Tyrannical Song is very cute. Didn’t he still look like an uncle when he delivered a speech previously?”

“Profound Sage Tyrannical Song is at the Tribulation Transcender Realm. His external appearance is no different from a fleeting cloud; he should be able to change his appearance whenever he so wishes.”

“I feel that the look of an uncle suits Senior Tyrannical Song’s personality a lot better.”

Most of the positive comments were about his appearance.

Compared to his cultivation, it was his appearance that was of more value to some, going to show just how valued looks were in these times.

??????

When Song Shuhang arrived at Heavenly Field Island, the demonic god pillar had finished transmitting all of the basic knowledge that it contained to him. At the same time, Song Shuhang had finished extracting the knowledge on demonic cuisine and learned it.

Song Shuhang said, “I’m about ready, but I shouldn’t bite off more than I can chew. I should learn the basics first, and then go on to learn the more esoteric immortal chef content.”

Scarlet Heaven Sword remarked, “I think that you should practice first, and see if you even have any talent for cooking.”

Song Shuhang patted his chest, and said, “Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, don’t worry. I have a chef heart, and I also have Demon Emperor Hezhi’s immortal chef inheritance. As long as my talent for cooking is even a little better than my talent in the sword, I should be able to reach the level of an ordinary immortal chef.”

“…” Scarlet Heaven Sword.

Honestly, pretty much everything is good about Song Shuhang. His character is good, he treats other people kindly, and other than being a little too outspoken, he doesn’t have any other large flaws.

It’s just that this guy really does tend to make others’ hearts feel sour in pity for him sometimes.

For example, his horrendous sword talent, his death rate, him bearing the burden while you receive the blessing, and so on…

Now, before he even got to try cooking, Song Shuhang had already planted a flag for himself.

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword felt that Song Shuhang might just be a goner in this regard.

Song Shuhang said, “Let’s enter the island, Senior.”

At this time, Heavenly Field Island had gotten a brand-new island-guarding formation. Before being able to enter the island, Song Shuhang had to go through a check by Island Master Tian Tiankong.

Song Shuhang stretched out his hand, preparing to take the demonic god pillar back to his Inner World.

But before storing it back, Song Shuhang gave it one more ?Saber-Nurturing Technique? as a reward.

The demonic god pillar: buzz, buzz~

It seemed to enjoy it a lot.

Afterward, it transmitted some of its core knowledge.

It was a large menu made by Demon Emperor Hezhi. This menu was still in the unfinished stage, and it was an especially crazy menu.

If it was completed, this menu would likely fall in the top-tier demonic cuisine category of the world of immortal chefs.

This terrifying menu and the huge amount of knowledge it contained were all stuffed into Song Shuhang’s brain by the demonic god pillar, bringing him a lot of pain.

“Hisss~” Song Shuhang took a deep breath, hissing from the pain. After he pushed the demonic god pillar into the Inner World, he reached out and rubbed his temples to relieve the pain he was experiencing.

Scarlet Heaven Sword asked, “What happened?”

Scarlet Heaven Sword knew how strong Song Shuhang’s pain tolerance was. For something to have been able to make Song Shuhang react like that, if an ordinary cultivator were to experience it instead, they would definitely be rolling on the ground from the pain.

“My brain is overloaded.” Song Shuhang gnashed his teeth.

“…” Scarlet Heaven Sword.

Seeing Song Shuhang’s pain-filled appearance, Scarlet Heaven Sword suggested, “How about you try using the ?Saber-Nurturing Technique? on yourself?”

Song Shuhang waved his hand. “It’s fine. This kind of pain is still within the range of what I can bear.”

This kind of pain where his brain was suddenly stuffed with a huge amount of knowledge and became overloaded was new to him. As such, he wanted to get used to it and improve his immunity so that he wouldn’t react as badly the next time he encountered it.

“Pain makes me stronger.” Song Shuhang laughed.

Being still able to laugh at such a time just showed that he was gradually getting used to it.

“…” Scarlet Heaven Sword.

Song Shuhang, this guy is really helpless in this regard…?Scarlet Heaven Sword could only watch as Song Shuhang ran down a path of no return.

Ding~ At this time, Island Master Tian Tiankong’s voice could be heard coming from the island-guarding formation. [Little friend Shuhang, you’ve arrived? I will open the entrance of the island-guarding formation for you. You simply need to go to the place I mark, and you can enter Heavenly Field Island that way.]

Song Shuhang replied, “Got it, Senior Tian Tiankong.”

Island Master Tian Tiankong marked out an area on the island-guarding formation, and opened a path to the island there.

Song Shuhang and Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword went through the island-guarding formation. At the same time, Shuhang began to organize the menu that the demonic god pillar had stuffed in his brain.

After organizing the knowledge about the menu, he extracted a part of it from his mind.

?Braised Heavenly Tribulation?, ?Stir-Fried Golden Core Minor Heavenly Tribulation?, ?Fried Pill Tribulation?, ?Steamed Weapon Tribulation?, ?Frozen Heavenly Tribulation Pastry?…

“…” Song Shuhang.

He reached out and rubbed his temples again.

Was the information transmitted in one go by the demonic god pillar so much that it got mixed up with other information in my brain?

Maybe I should take a deep breath, clear my mind, and look at it again.

Song Shuhang quickly did a set of ‘eye exercises’ to clear his mind. At the same time, he also activated the healing technique that came with the Defiant Whale Warrior’s Glove, and used the ?Whale Body Transformation Spell?.

“What’s wrong?” Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword asked curiously.?Is Song Shuhang in such difficulty that he’s even tossing and turning?

Song Shuhang reached out, and patted his cheeks lightly. “It’s nothing, Senior. I’m just clearing my mind. I was reading the menu transmitted by the demonic god pillar just now, but the information seemed to be slightly messed up, so I’m trying to sort it out.”

After saying that, he concentrated his mind, and read the Demon Emperor’s menu.

This menu had a name.

[Hezhi’s Life Menu—Heavenly Tribulation Grand Banquet.]

In the world of immortal chefs, top immortal chefs were rather fond of making a Life Menu for themselves.

When making this menu, the immortal chef would bring into play the cooking skills they were the proudest of, and create a unique menu with the ingredients they were the best at using.

With the advancement of the immortal chef’s cooking skills and their discovery of new ingredients, the dishes on their Life Menu were constantly replaced… Because of this, some immortal chefs died before being able to complete their Life Menu.

As for Demon Emperor Hezhi, a top immortal chef who had seven chef hearts when he was at the Ninth Stage, he embarked on a path to create an earth-shattering Life Menu.

As a big shot who stood at the top of the world, he did not take the usual path when creating his Life Menu.

What Song Shuhang saw was not an illusion, nor was it his brain mixing and matching data from all over.

Demon Emperor Hezhi’s Life Menu was really named ?Heavenly Tribulation Grand Banquet?.

“Braised Heavenly Tribulation…” Song Shuhang began to read the recipe for this dish.

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword was stunned. “Braised what?”

“Braised Heavenly Tribulation,” Song Shuhang replied. “I read it right, and you heard it right, Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword. That’s the name of the dish.”

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “It’s the name of a dish? The name of this dish and its actual content should differ.”

Just like the ‘Flying Dragon Soup’, which did not actually use a flying dragon, and instead only used a hazel chicken, this ‘Braised Heavenly Tribulation’ should also be about braising some other ingredient, right?
