In the early morning, a ray of sunshine shone on the wall of Wujiang Town, and the east gate of Wujiang Town opened. Many vendors carried bamboo baskets and pushed carts to Wujiang Town from outside...

A young man of fifteen or sixteen walked towards Wujiang Town in the morning glow. Although the boy's clothes were not gorgeous, he had a restrained temperament.

The guards at the East City Gate saw that there was only one boy. They originally wanted to investigate, but the boy glared at him and couldn't help but retreat, with an instinctive fear in their hearts.

This young man is nothing else, but Yan Nantian who returned from the Eternal Forest.

After Yan Nantian entered Wujiang Town, there were not many pedestrians and vendors on the road. Yan Nantian rushed to the road very quickly and soon returned to Yuelaiju Restaurant.

At this time, Yuelaiju was just open for business. Two servants were cleaning at the entrance of the restaurant. When they saw Yan Nantian walking towards the restaurant, a big-eyed servant immediately ran over, bowed to Yan Nantian, and said, "Cook of Yan, you are back."

"Well, is Manager Chen in the restaurant?" Yan Nantian asked.

"Here, you can wait in the lobby first. I'll go and invite Manager Chen to come here." said the servant with big eyes.

"Don't worry, I'll go back to Yuechen first. When you meet Manager Chen later, just ask her to go directly to Yuechen North Room to find me." Yan Nan Tiandao.

"Yan Bang Chu, you'd better wait in the lobby for a while. It might not be very convenient to go back to Yue kitchen." The big-eyed servant said with a silence.

"What does it mean? What's inconvenient?" Yan Nantian's face changed slightly and he asked.

"This..." The big-eyed servant was embarrassed and said, "Yan Bushu. Why not take you to Songyue Pavilion and let Manager Chen tell you what to do?"

"Okay." Yan Nantian did not make things difficult for the other party and nodded slightly.

"Cook Yan, please." The big-eyed servant breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly led the way in front.

After a while, the two of them quickly arrived at Songyue Pavilion. The maid led Yan Nantian to the side listening. Not long after, Chen Xue rushed over, but the expression on her face was a little strange.

"Manager Chen, what happened? Why can't I go back to Yue's kitchen?" Yan Nantian asked straight to the point.

"Yan Budian Chu. Please take a sip of tea and listen to me slowly." Chen Xue waved her hand and signaled the maid to retreat.

"Yeah." Yan Nantian responded and said.

Chen Xue pondered for a moment and organized the language. He said, "There were four spiritual chefs before the Yan Budian Chuan. One of them was traveling outside. He suddenly came back two days ago. Because he was in a hurry to cook a Lingchu dish, he temporarily occupied the Beifang."

Yan Nantian's face darkened and he said coldly: "Manager Chen, when I made a first-class puffer fish, Manager Lin promised me that I could enjoy the treatment of Lingchu. You have let the Pang Lingchu occupy my kitchen without my consent. Isn't it a bit too much?"

"Yan Bushu, don't be angry, this is a completely accident." Chen Xue hurriedly explained.

"Accident? Then why did I occupy my northern room, not the four kitchens in the east, south and west? It is clear that I, Yan Nantian, can be bullied. My kitchen utensils and ingredients are in the northern room. If this causes the leakage of Lingchu recipes, who will take this responsibility?" For chefs, the kitchen is equivalent to their own home. If a stranger breaks into your home, no matter who is, he will be indignant.

"Yan Bushu, it was not something I had to take Pang Lingchu. The other party moved your things out of the northern room without my consent. When I knew it was too late, I went to argue for it. However, the other party relied on Lingchu's identity and did not take me seriously at all." Chen Xue hurriedly took the responsibility clear, and she didn't want to offend Yan Nantian for no reason.

After hearing Chen Xue’s explanation, Yan Nan Tiancai looked a little kinder and asked, “Manager Chen, where are my kitchen utensils and ingredients now?”

"I have already put it away and put it in the storage room of Songyue Pavilion. I will take you to see it now." Chen Xue stood up, made a gesture of invitation, and said.

"Yeah." Yan Nantian responded and followed Chen Xue outside.

Seeing the atmosphere a little silent, Chen Xue took the initiative to ask on the road: "Yan Bushu, why did you come back suddenly? Didn't the shopkeeper come back with you?"

"I encountered some accidents, so I returned to Yuelaiju in advance. You go and send a guard and say something to Manager Lin." Yan Nantian ordered.

"Okay." Chen Xue responded and said, "Yan Bushu, the chef Pang Lingchu who occupied your kitchen, also rushed to the Eternal Forest. I think you probably didn't meet him."

"Oh, he is also looking for the remains of Shengxianju." Yan Nantian asked.

"I don't know this." Chen Xue said.

"Then is the northern house empty now?" Yan Nantian asked.

"Yan Sheng, the apprentice of Pang Hongyi, is still in the Beifang."

...

In the eternal forest, near the Ascension Residence.

After Shengxianju was captured, Tang Zhengdong led a group of second-level monks to search in Shengxianju, but did not find any treasure. Although everyone was very atmospheric, they were more helpless.

After searching for a long time, Tang Zhengdong and others finally gave up. A group of first-level cultivators were able to enter the Ascension House, but they also found nothing and cursed them endlessly.

These first-level monks were not the first batch of Shengxianju to enter. They did not know that Shengxianju was originally empty. They thought that the treasures of Shengxianju were all divided up by Tang Zhengdong and those second-level monks, so they were naturally filled with righteous indignation.

Near Shengxianju, in the camp of Yuelaiju, Lin Yue'er, Zhou Xuebin, Li Yue'e, Liu Qiang, Pang Hongyi and others sat on the ground around a bonfire.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little depressed, Lin Yueer, as the restaurant shopkeeper, took the initiative to speak: "Brother Zhou, you are the first to enter Shengxianju. What is the situation inside?"

"Shopkeeper Lin, everyone, you later entered Shengxianju. What are the situations you saw? I saw the same situation." Zhou Xuebin smiled bitterly and said.

"Brother Zhou, what you mean is that all the treasures in Shengxian Curie were plundered by Tang Zhengdong first." Li Yue'e asked.

"Tang Zhengdong, although he was the first to enter, he did not get any treasures, at least I didn't see them." Zhou Xuebin shook his head slightly and said.

"Zhou Lingchu, what do you mean?" Pang Hongyi asked back.

"After we entered, there was no treasure in Shengxian Curie." Zhou Xuebin said truthfully.

"Hahaha, Zhou Lingchu, everyone is from Yuelaiju. There is no need to use this kind of lie to deceive us." Pang Hongyi did not believe Zhou Xuebin's words. In his opinion, the reason why Zhou Xuebin said this was because he was afraid that others would peek at his treasure.

"I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe it, then I can't do anything about it." Zhou Xuebin said.

"I believe the master's words. There are more than a dozen people in the first batch of people entering Shengxianju. This kind of thing cannot be hidden at all, and the master has no way to lie." Liu Qiang echoed.

After hearing Liu Qiang's words, Lin Yue'er and Li Yue'e nodded slightly, believed Zhou Xuebin's words, and at the same time regretted that they had a vain.

However, Pang Hongyi didn't think so and said coldly: "Hmph, I'm afraid that those dozen people will want to take over the treasures for their own benefit, so they will unify their confessions."

"Pang Hongyi, don't judge a gentleman's ambition by the heart of a villain." Zhou Xuebin rebuked.

"Zhou Lingchu, Pang Lingchu, please be calm, you two." Lin Yue'er hurriedly stood up to smooth things over, and asked, "Pang Lingchu, are you planning to stay in Yuelaiju this time, or continue to travel outside."

"Well, this time I'm back, I'm going to stay in Yuelaiju for a while." Pang Hongyi said perfunctorily.

"So that's the case. After I go back, I will arrange a kitchen for you." Lin Yue'er said.

"No need, I have occupied the northern room of Yuechen, so there is no need to bother Manager Lin." Pang Hongyi said.

"Yuechen North Room? Isn't that Yan Nantian's kitchen? How can you occupy someone else's kitchen without authorization?" Liu Qiang's face changed and he asked.

Zhou Xuebin also had a ugly expression. It was very rude to have any spiritual kitchen in the kitchen without permission. Pang Hongyi took possession of other people's kitchen without permission.

"Hmph, I'm just a chef. What's so amazing about it? I'll just inform him where he is now." Pang Hongyi said disrespectfully.

The status of the chef and Lingchu is very different. Pang Hongyi does not think there is anything wrong with him doing this, and he is not afraid of offending a chef.

After hearing Pang Hongyi's words, Lin Yue'er was also a little embarrassed and occupied other people's kitchen without authorization. Pang Hongyi did it a little too much, but Yan Nantian was not here, so she didn't have to say much.

And the more important question now is, where has Yan Nantian been?

...

A room near the east of Songyue Pavilion is a relatively remote storage room with some kitchen utensils and ingredients, which belong to Yan Nantian.

Under Chen Xue's leadership, Yan Nantian soon came here and saw his things being placed in the corner of the storage room. Yan Nantian's face looked dim.

"Yan Budian, please check if there is anything missing." Chen Xue was also a little embarrassed, stepped aside and made a gesture of asking for help.

"Yeah." Yan Nantian responded and began to check his things.

Among them, there was a kitchen knife placed on the wooden rack. Yan Nantian picked it up and looked at it. The tip and edge of the knife were rolled up, which was likely caused by being thrown to the ground.

Yan Nantian's face changed slightly. This knife was given to him by Yan Yunhua after he entered Yuelaiju. Yan Nantian has always cherished it very much and often took it out and wiped it. Unexpectedly, it was destroyed now.

Yan Nantian didn't speak for a long time, and the atmosphere in the room was a little depressed. Chen Xue squeezed out a smile and asked, "Yan Bushu, is there anything missing from your stuff? If there is any missing, I'm helping you go to the Beifang to ask, maybe where it will be left."

"Yes." Yannan Tiandao.

"Yan Bangchu, what are you missing? Although Pang Lingchu is not in Yuelaiju, his apprentice Yan Sheng is still there. I can ask him to help you find it." Chen Xue said.

"I lost a thousand spirit stones!"
