Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality

Chapter 324: The Barbecue Restaurant Reopens

After Lu Yang woke up, Li Haoran and Qin Yanyan woke up one after another. The father and daughter looked around, unsure of their surroundings.

“You’re all awake?” The Fifth Elder sat on a stool, looking calm and composed.

Qin Yanyan recalled the moment before they lost consciousness. The Fifth Elder had waved his sleeve, and their vision went black. When they came to, they were already here.

“It must have been the legendary Universe in Sleeves Art!” Qin Yanyan exclaimed excitedly, thrilled to experience such a mythical divine ability firsthand.

As expected of an elder of the Dao Seeking Sect!

The Fifth Elder smiled faintly, letting silence speak for itself.

Li Haoran looked thoughtful. He hadn’t heard that his master knew the Universe in Sleeves Art.

Meng Jingzhou, who had been observing the entire time, raised an eyebrow. He was the only one among the four who hadn’t fainted.

The Fifth Elder had knocked out Lu Yang and the other two, then explained to Meng Jingzhou that he was concerned they might be afraid of heights or lack flying experience. It was easier to knock them out and carry them down.

Then the Fifth Elder had taken out three sacks, skillfully bagging the three of them, as if he had done it many times before.

“This is the Come Again Barbecue Restaurant you’ve been talking about?” Before their departure, the Fifth Elder had done his homework, asking Dai Bufan for the mission report and learning about what had happened in Yanjiang County.

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou looked at the familiar setup, lost in reminiscence.

Time flies, the world changes, people come and go. Years had passed, and even the Undying Sect had fallen. They hadn’t expected to return here.

The Fifth Elder rubbed a table, revealing a thick layer of dust: “It’s been three months; it needs cleaning.”

Just as the four juniors were about to start cleaning, the Fifth Elder waved his hand: “No need to bother.”

His lips moved slightly, muttering an inaudible incantation, and he casually cast a mark.

The mark landed on the ground, causing the space to tremble slightly and creating invisible ripples that spread outward.

Dust on the tables, chairs, and floor began to shake, detaching from the surfaces and dispersing outward.

Even the dust on Lu Yang and the others’ bodies trembled and left them.

When all the dust and grime had gathered in the corners, the Fifth Elder’s palm emitted a suction force, pulling the dirt inward into a vortex.

Finally, the dirt condensed into a small ball, which disappeared when the Fifth Elder clenched his fist.

The entire barbecue restaurant now looked refreshed, as if everything was brand new.

“This is the Dust Cleansing Spell, often used for cleaning. You can practice these practical little spells in your spare time,” the Fifth Elder explained.

“If you dislike someone, you can use the Dust Cleansing Spell to gather the dirt into a ball and throw it at them.”

That was the Fifth Elder’s original reason for learning the Dust Cleansing Spell.

“Reopening!”

Lu Yang took out various seasonings, skewers, and the automatic skewering formation from his identity jade token. The barbecue rack and other items were already in the restaurant; they hadn’t taken them when they left.

“This automatic skewering formation is interesting and creative.” The Fifth Elder glanced at the formation and immediately understood its function.

Lu Yang thought to himself that this was the latest achievement of the Undying Sect’s upper echelon, combining the wisdom of four Unity stage experts.

The Fifth Elder asked, “Is there an automatic grilling formation or artifact?”

Lu Yang shook his head; it hadn’t been designed yet.

“In that case, I’ll design one. But I’ve never grilled before, so I need to practice for a couple of days first to understand how to design an automatic grilling artifact.”

The Fifth Elder’s favorite thing was crafting artifacts that had never been created before.

Lu Yang was delighted. He had been wondering whether he needed to capture a couple of Specters, but it seemed unnecessary now.

Lu Yang mixed the spices in a certain proportion, quickly preparing a batch of bright red, barbarian-style barbecue sauce.

“I’m going out to buy some ingredients,” Lu Yang said, suggesting that the Fifth Elder start grilling.

“Go ahead, go ahead.”

Lu Yang pushed open the door, attracting curious glances from the passersby on the street.

“Manager Lu!”

“What, is this really Manager Lu?”

“Is the barbecue restaurant reopening?”

“I heard Manager Lu went out to start a new business. Is he back to continue running the barbecue restaurant after failing?”

“Didn’t they say Manager Lu went home to inherit the family business? Why is he back?”

“Is there such a story?”

“You didn’t hear? Manager Lu got lost with his parents when he was a child. The barbecue recipe is a childhood memory. A great figure came here to eat the barbecue, was moved to tears by the taste, saying only his family could make this flavor, asked who made it, and then father and son recognized each other, so the barbecue restaurant closed.”

“I heard Manager Lu has a very wealthy fiancée who took him away?”

The passersby discussed fervently. The Come Again Barbecue Restaurant was the most popular spot in Yanjiang County, known even in the neighboring counties.

Unfortunately, the restaurant had closed after the Spring Festival, leaving people craving the food.

People speculated wildly about Lu Yang’s departure.

As for the county magistrate’s death, no one connected it to the barbecue restaurant, especially not to a restaurant covered in banners of praise.

“Manager Lu, is the barbecue restaurant reopening?”

“Yeah, without your skewers at night, something feels missing!”

Facing the enthusiastic public, Lu Yang raised his hand and loudly announced, “Everyone, quiet down. We’ve come back to continue running the barbecue restaurant, so rest assured. We plan to reopen tomorrow!”

“Great!”

After finally breaking free from the crowd in the vegetable market, Lu Yang was surrounded again. When he finally returned to the barbecue restaurant, he was exhausted and out of breath, feeling that a trip out was more tiring than a battle.

“I’m back!”

Lu Yang threw the meat and vegetables onto the automatic skewer formation, which smoothly cut the meat and vegetables into small pieces. Wooden skewers floated and threaded the pieces together in a seamless process.

The Fifth Elder took the skewers to the barbecue rack and asked, “Do you have a specific flame for grilling?”

As a grandmaster of artifact crafting, the Fifth Elder controlled seven kinds of true fire, but they were all too fierce for grilling.

“I have the Three Flavours True Fire!” Lu Yang volunteered. His true fire was perfect for grilling.

“I also have true fire,” Meng Jingzhou said, raising a scorching flame in his palm.

“Pure Yang True Fire?” The Fifth Elder recognized the origin of the flame. Every Single Spirit Root cultivator who condensed a Single Golden Core would automatically control this true fire.

“But your fire isn’t as suitable as Lu Yang’s Three Flavours True Fire, is it?”

Meng Jingzhou smiled confidently, “No, my Pure Yang True Fire is the product of a Twin Single Spirit Root and has effects that traditional Pure Yang True Fire doesn’t.”

The Fifth Elder curiously asked, “What are they?”

“It enhances virility.”

“Food grilled with Pure Yang True Fire can enhance virility!”
