1021: Chapter 1022: Dispute 1021: Chapter 1022: Dispute “How to diate?
It’s just a disagreent,, can’t we just leave it at that without forcing a win or loss?”
Feng Yuan rolled his eyes speechlessly.
He could tell that the Big Cat and Agunas were at odds over so philosophy, and as for the reason, a glance at Xiao Ji looking around gave him a clue—it was highly likely that Xiao Ji had sought both Agunas and Big Cat’s advice on how to use spiritual power.
As for whose thod was better?
Feng Yuan couldn’t say for sure.
Although Xiao Ji and Agunas were both Divine Beasts, in terms of strength, Xiao Ji was closer to Big Cat rather than Agunas.
It was unclear whose thod suited Xiao Ji best, but given the nature of Big Cat and Agunas, it was unlikely they would actually co to blows.
He sneaked a glance at Veronia who was sitting on the Rainbow Bubbles, looking at her phone.
It seed that the quarrel between Agunas and Big Cat had grown loud, prompting her to glance up and then floated away with the Rainbow Bubbles.
Kong Qing stood by, sowhat helpless, watching Agunas and Big Cat.
Such philosophical conflicts were out of its league, and…
Kong Qing looked at the ring at the tip of its tail, thought for a mont, and shook its head.
It seed too soon for it, or perhaps, not all Divine Beasts enjoyed such things.
Even so, should it also practice its control of spiritual power?
Thinking this, Kong Qing swam over to Big Cat to ask about sothing.
“So, what exactly is going on…”
Qi Chen watched the ongoing argunt between Agunas, Big Cat, and Kong Qing speechlessly, while Xiao Ji stood by obediently like a good baby—though Qi Chen suspected it was probably dizzy from their bickering.
“Don’t know, but doesn’t it look a bit like an academic debate?”
Cheng Xiaoxiao said, amused, as she sat down opposite Dou Yanlan.
“How long do you think they’ll calm down?”
“Probably soon.”
Dou Yanlan glanced at Agunas and others and whispered.
Though she wasn’t very familiar with Feng Yuan’s Spirit Beasts, she had so guesses.
With them arguing like this, they would reach a conclusion soon, or they would split up unhappily—there was no way the argunt could continue.
As Dou Yanlan had predicted, soon Big Cat was triumphantly twisting its body towards Agunas, and Kong Qing seed embarrassed saying sothing to Agunas, who flicked its tail and seed to say sothing back.
At that mont, Xiao Ji perked up and focused on the Big Cat.
“Indeed, birds of a feather.”
Seeing this scene, Cheng Xiaoxiao said to Dou Yanlan with a smile.
The Cotton lying in front of Dou Yanlan glanced at Cheng Xiaoxiao, wagged its tail, and Qi Chen looked puzzledly from Dou Yanlan to Cheng Xiaoxiao.
The two just looked at each other and after a while, Cheng Xiaoxiao chuckled and said,
“A pity, I’ve already abandoned that path.
Indeed, what she said was true.
Along the way, there are too many temptations and necessities, and even if you persist, it may not all be what you want.”
“Yes, that’s why I gave up too.”
Dou Yanlan replied with a warm smile, but Qi Chen, who saw this exchange, was stunned.
Surprised, Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at Dou Yanlan, then at Qi Chen, and said,
“Is it because of him?
You’re really lucky…”
“Lucky, indeed～”
Dou Yanlan said, softly taking Qi Chen’s hand, blushing at the gesture, and Cheng Xiaoxiao laughed softly,
“You don’t seem to mind at all～”
“Hehe～ what about it?”
Feng Yuan pointed at the large cake he had brought out with pride.
It emitted a floral fragrance from so unknown ingredient, and Xiao Ji looked suspiciously at the cake, sniffed, and stared at Feng Yuan doubtfully.
“What are you up to?”
Noticing Xiao Ji’s actions, Feng Yuan spoke with a bit of exasperation while Agunas flicked its tail and said,
“With the way you always prank it, isn’t it normal for it to be suspicious?”
“Tsk, can you bla ?
If it hadn’t been so gullible in the first place, there wouldn’t have been a problem, right?”
Feng Yuan retorted with a pout, clearly dissatisfied.
Xiao Ji glared at him, letting out an unhappy cry, and Agunas looked at Feng Yuan,
“Be careful, or it might get really angry.”
“It shouldn’t be…
here, take this piece as an apology~”
Feng Yuan, feeling sowhat guilty, scratched his head and directly cut a piece of cake onto a plate for Xiao Ji.
Qi Chen, who was cutting the cake for Dou Yanlan, paused and looked at Feng Yuan with so surprise,
“You made this…
a Spirit Beast-flavored cake?”
“No, just eat it, it should taste quite good.”
As Feng Yuan handed the plate to Xiao Ji, he said this.
Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Xiao Ji looked at the cake warily.
Although it did sll really good, but…
“It must be using specially formulated ingredients that cater to both humans and Spirit Beasts, but achieving a truly delicious taste is impossible.”
Veronia said after cutting herself a small piece and tasting it.
Xiao Ji hesitated before pecking at the cake cautiously.
After tasting for a while, Xiao Ji gave an embarrassed chirp towards Feng Yuan.
Agunas rolled his eyes; that guy was definitely doing it on purpose.
He refused to believe that Feng Yuan didn’t know what Xiao Ji was worried about, yet he wouldn’t explain.
It was a pity Xiao Ji didn’t see it, and it wasn’t easy for him to hint to Xiao Ji.
“A seasoning that caters to both?
I’ve heard about that before, but isn’t it said to be quite difficult to create?”
Cheng Xiaoxiao exclaid with surprise.
Cen Chudie casually cut a piece of cake for herself and said,
“Difficult it is not, Yun You and he can both do it, but the taste won’t be that great.
After all, the taste preferences of humans and Spirit Beasts vary too much.
The only option is to adjust those special seasonings which both cannot detect.
In any case, neither he nor she can make a really tasty dual-natured food item.”
“There’s no helping it.
So ingredients taste good to humans, but Spirit Beasts can’t taste them, and vice versa.
If you want to make a dish that caters to both, you have to use this characteristic; otherwise, it’s impossible.
Making a delicious normal dish is already difficult, let alone using those special seasonings…”
Feng Yuan shrugged helplessly.
He would not have bothered if it weren’t for the fear of wasting food.
He was unsure about the additional Spirit Beasts’ appetites and their tastes, and Cotton Orchid Flowers were rather scarce; he hated to waste them.
“Wouldn’t that be a bit wasteful?”
Dou Yanlan asked with so confusion.
While it was true that both humans and Spirit Beasts could eat it, if the taste wasn’t particularly good…
“Basically, that’s how it is.
After all, Cotton Orchid Flowers naturally carry a bit of a plant’s tartness, and they’re not especially sweet.
They aren’t really ideal for making cakes.”
Cen Chudie said while eating her cake.
Yun You smiled slightly and added,
“The Cotton Orchid Cake is mainly for the scent of the flowers and the added special plant flavors, which both humans and Spirit Beasts consistently enjoy.”
“You don’t need to defend him.
This thing is not suitable for cakes in the first place.
Even though he occasionally makes it, this is too wasteful.”
Cen Chudie said with a glance at the cake, feeling a bit pained as Cotton Orchid Flowers weren’t produced in large quantities.
Rather than using them for cakes, she preferred to make herbal tea and enjoy it slowly.
“I actually think it tastes alright.
Although it’s a bit unusual, it’s not a bad feature.”
Cheng Xiaoxiao spoke softly.
Su Wen tasted a piece and after a long savoring mont said,
“This thing seems to have significant dicinal value, but…
do I sense that you mixed in so Spirit Beast herbs?”
Cen Chudie glanced at Feng Yuan and said discontentedly,
“That’s his doing, but there’s no need to worry.
At least when it cos to potions, he can be trusted.
With his ability, he wouldn’t make a potion with serious side effects for either humans or Spirit Beasts, not to ntion food.”
Thinking of sothing, Cheng Xiaoxiao chuckled and said,
“I actually forgot about that.
You’re really sothing~”
Having heard Cheng Xiaoxiao’s words, Feng Yuan humd proudly.
On the side, Agunas looked at Feng Yuan and flicked its tail.
It couldn’t deny that Feng Yuan was indeed very skilled at such things, or rather, that guy knew things that were a bit too complex.
“You put potions in a cake?”
Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan speechlessly.
He didn’t expect the latter to actually do such a thing.
Feng Yuan held his head high with pride and said,
“Of course~”
“No, wait!
That doesn’t sound right.
I didn’t drug it; I just made a dicinal dish!
Understand, dicinal culinary arts!”
Realizing what he said, Feng Yuan retorted dissatisfiedly to Qi Chen.
Qi Chen glanced at Feng Yuan and didn’t argue, just as ng Binglan walked in with her group.
