1175 Roast Leg of Lamb! 

Peeling skins off fruits required skills.

It was like gambling on stones, which was the practice of buying a raw stone and then cutting it open, with the hopes of it holding some gems. Therefore, care must be taken to prevent the contents from being damaged.

Bu Fang didn’t know any technique for cutting a gamble stone, but he had knife techniques. Coupled with his divine perception, it was easy to make a perfect peel.

Seven-colored skins quickly fell off the fruit.

Bu Fang was curious about what the Immortal Tree’s spirit had given him.

The others also watched curiously with wide eyes as the gift was slowly revealed.

Suddenly…

“There it is!” Realm Lord Di Tai exclaimed, his eyes lighting up.

The Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife in Bu Fang’s hand stopped moving at once.

“What is it? What did the Immortal Tree give you?” the people around asked impatiently.

Bu Fang pushed the flesh aside with his hand and soon saw the gift.

It was a… golden egg.

It looked like it was made of pure gold, shining brilliantly in the light and looking extremely luxurious.

If it weren’t for the powerful vitality in the egg, Bu Fang would have thought that the Immortal Tree had given him an artwork for decoration.

“A golden egg?”

Not only him, but even Realm Lord Di Tai and the others were perplexed. They didn’t know what egg was this.

“It looks like a… dragon egg.” Lord Dog’s eyes suddenly lit up, his mouth watering at the sight of the golden egg.

Then, he twitched his nose and sniffed the aura exuding from it. His eyes grew even brighter as he added, “Dragon eggs are the best! No matter if you want to boil it or fry it, you have my support!”

Bu Fang gave him a sideways glance. ‘Does this dog only care about food?’

“If this is really a dragon egg, why not hatch it and raise it up, so there’d be an endless supply of dragon meat?” Bu Fang suggested.

His suggestion made perfect sense, and it gave Lord Dog a pause.

Lately, Bu Fang discovered that he seemed to have activated a new ability, that his bluffing skills had become really good.

He had managed to bluff the two Little Saints, and now, Lord Dog.

The discussion of how the golden egg should be cooked between the man and the dog rendered Realm Lord Di Tai and the others speechless.

The Immortal Tree’s spirit might have made a very bad decision. It shouldn’t have given Bu Fang the dragon egg.

Bu Fang was a chef, and he was followed by a gluttonous dog. How would the dragon egg have a good ending when it was given to both of them?

Realm Lord Di Tai and the others gasped in horror at such a thought.

This was an extraordinary dragon egg. It contained an enormous amount of energy, which was even more terrifying than the Perishing Pot Bu Fang had thrown out previously. It seemed to have gathered the energy of the whole Immortal Cooking Realm.

The Immortal Tree had given Bu Fang a great gift.

Realm Lord Di Tai glanced at Bu Fang. He was speechless when he found that the latter was still discussing with Lord Dog about whether they should hatch the egg or not.

It was a dragon egg. Shouldn’t they cherish it?

After a long discussion that seemed to be getting nowhere, the man and the dog stopped arguing.

Bu Fang sent the egg into the farmland and asked Niu Hansan to incubate it. After that, he turned and walked into the kitchen. He was going to prepare some dishes that went with wine so that everyone could have a relaxing time.

Xixi followed him into the kitchen. It was a wonderful thing to learn cooking from Bu Fang.

The dishes were not that difficult to prepare. Before very long, an aroma began wafting out of the kitchen.

It was not a strong aroma, however.

Bu Fang walked out with two dishes in his hands and placed them on the table.

Everyone came over and sat around him.

The dishes were simple. In one plate was soy-preserved radish, and the other slices of boiled demon beef.

Bu Fang took out blue-and-white porcelain cups and poured wine for everyone.

The wine foamed in the cups and gave off a rich aroma. A sniff of it was enough to lift pressure off one’s shoulder and make one feel relaxed.

“What a fragrant wine.”

The crowd praised as they sniffed at the aroma. Everyone knew that Bu Fang had good wine, but it was not so easy for them to taste it.

They toasted each other and tasted the wine, taking small slices of dishes from time to time.

The battle had exhausted everyone, but the cup of wine washed all their weariness away. They felt much relaxed now.

Bu Fang finished his cup of wine in one gulp. After downing the cup of Yellow Spring Helplessness Wine, he felt his body become warmer, and his pale face also turned ruddy.

The wine had many effects, such as relieving fatigue and relaxing the spirit, which were very beneficial to anyone.

However, after finishing his wine, Bu Fang sighed silently.

As his strength increased, his demand for wine had become higher and higher.

In the past, Yellow Spring Helplessness Wine had been able to satisfy him, but as his cultivation base advanced to Nine-star True Immortal Realm, the wine brewed with one-leaf Yellow Spring Grass and Flower of Helplessness was no longer as effective as before.

At the very least, he needed to replace the Yellow Spring Grass with some higher-leaf ones.

The crowd drank wine and chatted.

Bu Fang didn’t stay with them for too long. After some time, he walked back into the kitchen, then entered the Heaven and Earth Farmland.

He was greeted by a gentle and comfortable breeze as he went to the wooden cabin.

Niu Hansan was holding the golden dragon egg and kept looking at it. Clearly, he never saw a golden egg in his life before.

When he saw Bu Fang, he hurried over and greeted him excitedly.

“This is a dragon egg. Try to hatch it…” Bu Fang told Niu Hansan. He believed the latter had the talent to hatch eggs.

Niu Hansan was stunned.

It was such a difficult task… that he had to get a cow to help him!

“Anyway, I’m not here for this dragon egg but the leg of lamb. Where is it now?” Bu Fang asked.

‘The leg of lamb? Owner Bu is here for the leg of lamb? He sounded like it’s something very important…’

Niu Hansan blinked, then he quickly led Bu Fang into the wooden cabin.

The leg of lamb was casually thrown in a corner.

When Bu Fang saw the leg was left in a random corner by Niu Hansan, he couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

This leg of lamb was the leg of a Great Saint and a priceless ingredient, and yet it was shoved up in a corner like some useless thing.

Holding the leg of lamb, Bu Fang didn’t know whether to laugh or weep.

Aside from the leg of lamb, Bu Fang had another thing to do in the farmland. He wanted to plant the seed of the Nine Revolution Great Path Tea, which was the reward given to him by the system.

He knew it must be an extraordinary plant just by its name.

Although Bu Fang didn’t attach too much importance to it, he thought it would be better to just plant it here.

The Heaven and Earth Farmland had the source of the Spring of Life, which was the key to plant an immortal ingredient. That was why, without a doubt, the Nine Revolution Great Path Tea would grow very well here.

The Immortal Tree was flourishing in front of the wooden cabin, doubling in size every other day. Perhaps because of the locations where they were planted, the tree that grew from the Immortal Tree’s seed looked a little different from the one in the Immortal Cooking Realm.

“What’s the name of Immortal Trees? They should have a name, shouldn’t they?”

Bu Fang glanced at the Immortal Tree and suddenly thought of that, so he asked the system.

In his view, the system should know the answer. After all, it was like an encyclopedia.

“System, does this Immortal Tree have a name? Willow, pear, sycamore… All trees have names, right?” Bu Fang asked the system as he dug a hole in the ground opposite the Immortal Tree with a hoe.

The system didn’t answer him immediately.

It was not until he dug the hole, dropped the tea tree’s seed into it, and watered it with the Spring of Life that the system slowly answered him.

“The actual name of Immortal Trees is Myriad Treasures Immortal Tree. It’s a Sacred grade immortal ingredient and was once the weapon of a supreme expert,” the system’s serious voice rang out.

Bu Fang paused, and his eyes shrank.

Myriad Treasures Immortal Tree?

The Immortal Tree was once the weapon of a supreme expert?

What the heck?

The system ignored his doubts. That was its only answer.

Bu Fang thought for a moment and asked, “Is the supreme expert who once owned the Immortal Tree dead?”

As his strength increased, the system answered more and more of his questions. But this time, it didn’t answer him. It rejected his question, saying, “Your level is not high enough to know the answer.”

This reply was enough to make Bu Fang lost in thought.

As he was pondering, a green seedling broke through the soil and quickly grew into a small tree.

It was only about the height of an adult and wouldn’t grow taller.

The small tree looked like a tea tree. However, its leaves had two colors, completely different on the front and back.

“This is the Nine Revolution Great Path Tea Tree?”

Bu Fang took a deep breath and walked around the tree. The leaves had not matured, so it was not the best time to pick them.

Anyway, despite his curiosity and doubts, he was not in a hurry to harvest the leaves. He just asked Niu Hansan to take good care of this tea tree.

He also told him not to neglect the dragon egg.

If he could hatch a little dragon… that would be very interesting.

While Bu Fang was talking to Niu Hansan, Jing Yuan appeared in the farmland with a wooden barrel. She was here for the milk.

Making ice cream consumed a lot of milk, and business in Goddess City was booming. Basically, she had to come here every day to get more milk.

Jing Yuan was very excited when she saw Bu Fang.

However, as Bu Fang had to go back to cook the leg of lamb, he only chatted a few words with her before he bid her farewell and left the farmland.

After he had left, Niu Hansan began to prepare to hatch the egg. He even built a hatchery for the task.

…

Bu Fang returned to the kitchen, holding the leg of lamb that gave off a strong pressure and Nether energy.

According to Lord Dog, this leg of lamb should be the limb of a Great Saint.

The Great Saint should be an expert from the Nine Revolution Nether Chefs Clan, who got one of his legs ripped away by Lord Dog in the battle.

Now, the leg was about to turn into a dish.

How should the leg of lamb be cooked?

Bu Fang considered many ways, but in the end, he decided to preserve its original taste.

The main reason was that the grade of this Great Saint ingredient was too high, and he had no other way to cook it now.

He was not even a Second Grade Immortal Chef.

Of course, his cooking skills had definitely reached the level of a Second Grade Immortal Chef. However, the system didn’t recognize it, so he had no choice but to find some time to be assessed and become a Second Grade Immortal Chef.

He placed the leg of lamb into a basket and began washing it with Heavenly Mountain Spirit Spring Water.

The Great Saint ingredient was already clean, so its taste wouldn’t be affected even if he didn’t wash it.

After washing it, he began to remove the hair. Although it was a Great Saint ingredient, he couldn’t let everyone eat the hair as well.

It was not easy to remove the leg hair of a Great Saint.

Bu Fang produced the Black Turtle Constellation Wok and filled half of it with the Spring of Life. Soon, the water bubbled and burst with hot steam.

He put the lamb into the boiling water.

Then, he took out the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife, spun it, and removed the leg from the water.

Holding it by the hoof with one hand, Bu Fang grabbed the knife’s back with the other hand and scrapped the leg’s skin.

Moistened by the Spring of Life, the Great Saint’s leg hair had softened a lot, no longer as sharp and tough as a blade.

A large patch of hair was removed as soon as the knife scraped across the skin.

Bu Fang kept scraping the skin skillfully while it was hot, removing all the hair. When he was done, he thought for a moment and borrowed the War God Stick from Whitey.

The slim and long stick pierced through the lamb and stretched it out.

Bu Fang made a few cuts on the leg with the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife, so the flavor could distribute evenly during the cooking process.

After he was done with the preparations, Bu Fang took a step back.

He raised a hand, and a white flame emerged and swirled in his palm. With a flick of his finger, the flame engulfed the leg of lamb.

Cooking the Great Saint ingredient had now begun.
